Aoto's sharp peripheral vision quickly captured the fleeting, indistinct expression on Sazanoko's face, prompting him to ask this question.
"It's nothing…"
Sazanoko half-closed her eyes, her red lips slightly parted, gently exhaling a hint of fragrance.
"I just have a bit of sentimentality in my heart."
"Although half a month has already passed… the experiences of that night were truly thrilling, making me feel like I'm still dreaming even now."
"Just a little difference, and I might not be standing next to you chatting like this now."
With that, Sazanoko paused, slowly raising her exquisite, pretty face and crystal-like eyes, looking up at Aoto.
"Even though I've said similar words repeatedly these days, I still want to sincerely thank you once again."
Sazanoko turned her body towards Aoto.
"Mr. Tachibana, I'm very grateful for your life-saving grace."
