"...Then what do you mean...? The kitten likes Hiroi Kikuri, right? Or does she like her more than you guys?"

Yamada Ryo's voice was suppressed.

"Ugh?"

Kita Ikuyo sensed that Yamada Ryo's voice sounded a bit off.

"...Tell me, what does it mean to mean... [at least one of you two]?"

Yamada Ryo trembled slightly.

"…This is…"

Ichi Nijika spoke.

Yamada Ryo raised his head.

"Are you saying that Nekoyashiki Haru doesn't even have the right to like whomever she wants?"

"!"

Ichi Nijika opened her eyes wide.

Kita Ikuyo stepped forward.

That's not what we meant...

"That's what you mean!"

Ryo Yamada drowned out Ikuyo Kita's voice with an even louder one.

"You two think that because you both like kittens, the kittens have to like you both too? Is that what you mean?"

"No...it's me..."

Ijichi Nijika reached out, but Yamada Ryo dodged it.

The image of Nekoyashiki Haru trembling replayed in Yamada Ryo's mind.

Then he gritted his teeth and roared angrily.

"Is Nekoyashiki Haru some kind of fun toy?! Is that why you're all fighting over him?! You don't even care about his own wishes?! Are you trying to take away his personality?!"

"... "

Kita Ikuyo took a step back.

Ichi Nijika stepped forward.

"When did we say that?! You're twisting our meaning!"

"Did I misunderstand? No, I don't think so!"

"You've misunderstood! We meant fair competition!"

"I didn't understand what that meant!"

"I have!"

"You didn't!"

Ryo Yamada and Niji Natsumi's voices roared in unison, while Ikuyo Kita watched this scene with trembling pupils.

"That's terrible..."

Yamada Ryo turned around to leave.

"...You're the one who's...always this bad! And you even plagiarized my name for the kitten!"

Yidi Zhihongxia roared.

"?!"

Yamada Ryo suddenly turned around

Plagiarism? You mean me?

"What else? You always talk about being unique! But you just do whatever you want! Do you know how much trouble you've caused everyone?!"

"Now they're starting to dredge up old grievances?!"

"Come on! Let's bring up old grievances!"

"you…"

Yamada Ryosuke was about to ask what trouble Ijichi Nijika had caused him, but the words stuck in his throat.

The brain... seems unable to retrieve...

"See? You've been the one causing me trouble all along!"

"That's no excuse for treating Nekoyashiki Haru like a toy!"

"When did I ever treat a kitten as a toy?!"

Snap...

A strange noise interrupted the argument.

A splash of pink peeked out from the corner.

The three of them were taken aback and looked at Goto Ichiri.

Goto Ichiri lowered his head tremblingly, then said softly.

"...It's time for the performance."

Chapter 156 Loneliness (Return)

"They're still not back..."

Nekoyashiki Haru sighed softly.

In the classroom, Goto Ichiri and Nekoyashiki Haru waited for Yamada Ryo to bring the two of them back.

As a result, Ijichi Nijika and Kita Ikuyo did not return, nor did Yamada Ryo.

Goto Ichiri looked at Nekoyashiki Haru.

"I...I'll go look for it?"

"...Then why don't you call or text me?"

Nekoyashiki Haru took out her phone.

"But...but what if their phones can't ring in this situation?"

Goto Ichiri said nervously.

"If your phone rings at an inappropriate time, you will be considered disrespectful to others, and you will eventually be bullied and live a lonely life!"

“...Every time, I have to sigh, Ichiri, your world is so dangerous.”

"Ugh... I'll go find it myself!"

Goto Ichiri stood up.

"Nekoyashiki Haru asked."

"Do you want me to come with you?"

"No...no need!"

Goto Ichiri shook his head, then stepped forward and patted Nekoyashiki Haru on the head.

"Qing...Qing, wait for me here! I'll be right back!"

"Huh? Are you treating me like a vulnerable person?"

Nekoyashiki Haru smiled.

"Ah...yes...I'm sorry..."

Goto Ichiri was startled, then quickly closed his eyes and apologized.
