Shadowless Massage Hand! The First Stage of Rehabilitation Training: A Massage for Shinobu Kocho

Aoi Kanzaki immediately ran out and said, "You can't, Lady Kocho! Inosuke is far too dejected right now. He's in no condition to compete!"

Shinobu Kocho glanced at Inosuke.

Then she leaned close to him and asked considerately, "Inosuke, do you still want to take part in the competition?"

The usually enthusiastic, outgoing Inosuke was behaving unusually out of character.

Aoi Kanzaki quietly withdrew. To keep Shinazugawa from coming to snatch more people later, she had to hurry back and watch over the other patients in the wards.

Kanao Tsuyuri brought over a new table,
