Smoking Behind the Supermarket with You Chapter 30

Sasaki arrives late at night for a smoke break, only to be startled by the dog Daigoro and panicked by a frantic coworker who insists Ms. Nishizono has been kidnapped. Rushing to investigate, Sasaki finds Ms. Nishizono casually smoking and eating pork cutlets with Ms. Ono at a local ramen shop. As they chat about the neighborhood and their routines, Sasaki feels slightly embarrassed discussing his admiration for the supermarket cashier. Later, walking back together, Ms. Nishizono gently reflects on how regular customers leave lasting impressions and shares a warm, teasing moment with Sasaki under the night sky.
