Why is it not removing the value from the table?

I am trying to make a custom inventory system however when a tool gets deleted, the last tool in the toolbar will be deleted. For example, if I have tool 1 being a block, tool 2 a stick and tool 3 a shovel. When tool 1 is deleted, tool 3 will actually be deleted and 1 and 2 will stay, when it should be 2 and 3. I have tried adding prints throughout the code to see what the code is checking, the prints state that the if statement should be working, but its constantly saying its false [Not equal to.]

This is all ran on the client in a local script

The part off the code I am facing this issue with:

backpack.ChildRemoved:Connect(function(child)

    if child.Parent ~= char then
        for i,v in pairs(tools) do
            print(v, child.Name)
            if v == child.Name then
                print("Yes")
                table.remove(tools, i)
                print(tools)
                break
            end
        end
        updateHotbar()
    end
end)

For the tool examples [Block, Stick and shovel] the output would print: - Block Block - Stick Block - Shovel Block It is not printing Yes or the tools table at all, making me believe that is the problem yet I cant figure out why.

The full code:

        [5] = "Five",
        [6] = "Six",
        [7] = "Seven",
        [8] = "Eight",

        [10] = "Zero"
    }
