"Although the AST wasn't here for Tohka and Yoshino this time, there was no guarantee something strange wouldn't happen if they ran into each other at the hot springs."
"So... you'll just have to put up with this."
With that thought, Lin Guang quietly created a clone, then ordered him to find the AST members.
