72
00:05:31.680 --> 00:05:34.600
<v Speaker 5>the aroma of spices and steam, and the table was

73
00:05:34.680 --> 00:05:36.079
<v Speaker 5>buzzing with chatter and laughter.

00:06:13.360 --> 00:06:17.120
<v Speaker 5>Lily sat beside him, happily flipping through the menu, eagerly

83
00:06:17.160 --> 00:06:19.519
<v Speaker 5>anticipating the meal, completely unaware.

00:06:41.079 --> 00:06:43.079
<v Speaker 5>the atmosphere became warm and relaxed.

00:06:56.720 --> 00:06:57.920
<v Speaker 5>touched his pocket.

95
00:07:03.800 --> 00:07:06.519

00:07:28.319 --> 00:07:31.160
<v Speaker 5>of it. It seems a little surprise has gone missing.

102

00:07:44.399 --> 00:07:45.079
<v Speaker 5>joined the search.

00:09:33.799 --> 00:09:36.240
<v Speaker 5>inside the dumpling, staring in disbelief.
