Because Seigo Nishioka happened to feel ill on the day the bomb exploded, he was exposed in the school building rather than outside demolishing buildings with the other mobilized students. Because the Nakajima-shin-machi site was only about 700m from the hypocenter, all his classmates working that day were killed.
