The peculiar sensation in her hands made Sazanoko feel like a bucket of ice had been poured down her neck... The tangled yarn in her mind was quickly straightened, forming clear and distinct lines.
Memories before the unconsciousness gradually revived in Sazanoko's mind.
Simultaneously, Sazanoko's eyes adapted to the darkness.
She hurriedly lifted her head to look around, confirming that she was now confined in a place resembling a cellar... Nakamura Tsuki was tied up beside her, still sleeping soundly.
"Mm...! Mm mm...!" with her mouth bound, Sazanoko could only make some meaningless sounds, twisting her delicate body to vigorously push Nakamura Tsuki beside her.
A soft whimper floated out from Nakamura Tsuki's lips under Sazanoko's nudging.
Soon after, the young girl finally awoke, slowly opening her eyes.
"?!" Awakened, Nakamura Tsuki's expression initially froze, then the "dazed" look on her face visibly turned into "panic."
