"Not here... not here either... Damn it, where did this guy hide the antidote?"
Ajisai's small hands continuously searched Moriyue's upper body. Listening to his deep, sleeping breaths, she did not dare move too much for fear of accidentally waking him. Like a breeze, she slowly slipped her hand into his shirt, wanting to see whether the antidote was hidden in the lining.
