"That's impossible!"
Just then, Shiramine Kiriko suddenly spoke, her voice somewhat forlorn. "Ejiri and I got divorced three years ago. It's just that we both really liked fishing, so we often went fishing together on our days off. But there's nothing between us anymore. We mainly kept in touch through Kanaya."
