Sprinting forward along the underground passageway, Xu Fan and Igarashi soon reached the end of the passage.
"That guy didn't follow us, did he?"
Stopping at the entrance, Xu Fan, panting, asked a question.
Igarashi, carrying Asao Mai on his back, shook his head.
The complex expression on his face showed how much Akiyama Tsuki's appearance had impacted him just now.
Xu Fan noticed this and patted his shoulder, saying, "Alright, don't think too much."
"It's not your fault."
The whole thing was just Igarashi's good intentions gone wrong, and he couldn't be blamed.
Xu Fan reminded him, hoping Igarashi wouldn't get himself stuck in a spiral of overthinking.
"By the way, where does this exit lead?"
In front was a large door, and the situation outside was unclear. Xu Fan, having rested enough, asked Igarashi.
"I don't know either, I only know there's such a hidden passage."
"Alright then..."
