Now I'm going to show you around the naval base!

I'm sorry for bothering you.

Umm, why your hand's...

Oh my. I've done that unconsciously... I'm sorry.

However, isn't it reassuring if we have our hands held. You won't get yourself lost, don't you think?

Lost...

Thank you for your concern... Yes, it's a little bit embarrassing, but please keep them held this way.

I can feel a kind, nostalgic feeling from this small hand—

This alone made me understand.

So it is you, isn't it? Hatsushimo. The one who saved me back then—They survived Operation Ten-Go with Suzutsuki heavily damaged.
