Every chap that they are NOT saving the other girl, and instead wasting time doing random shit, just makes me grow even more nervous that we are gonna get SA jumpscared when we do get back to her.
That's true and I was afraid we were set to have a distraction with the two together and some harem bs, but tbf, they ended up finding their first stop right away. And now, they found someone they know that can tell them what happened in the facility and where is the girl.
No need to worry too much, this author will simply use any situation to show some fanservice. And if SA even registers on their radar, it's just meant to be cheap engagement with the scare, not a serious developpment. At worse, it will stay at an attempt, and it's only there for the dude to swoop in and save her 🙄
