Lonely Rock for the Blind.

The shoelaces were also fluttering restlessly in the wind.

Every time a goal was scored, applause would erupt from the senior players.

Kita Ikuyo had never played such a relaxed and enjoyable basketball game before.

Although he initially claimed he could unleash 200% of his full potential, it was actually just talk.

But now that I see it... maybe it really is true?

They moved through the crowd with fluid grace.

"come on!"

Nekoyashiki Haru turned up the volume.

Hearing the cheers, Kita Ikuyo's eyes widened, and she jumped up with all her might.

The basketball in his hand was lifted into the air above the net.

The shoelaces fluttered into two bunches...

boom!

The last ball went in without a doubt.

Snapped!

Kita Ikuyo fell down stepping on her shoelaces.

Click...

An ominous sound came from my ankle.

Kita Ikuyo opened her eyes wide.

"Goo!"

"Yudai?!"

"Little Kita?!" ×N

...

……

.........

"Hiss... Haa..."

On the playground, sitting on a cushion, Kita Ikuyo covered her feet and showed a crying face.

"Ugh..."

"The infirmary doctor said it's nothing serious, just need to rest more afterward."

Nekoyashiki Haru sat down next to her and said.

After being taken to the infirmary and quickly checked to make sure there was nothing wrong, Kita Ikuyo was immediately thrown to Nekoyashiki Haru's side by her friend.

On the open-air playground, Nekoyashiki grabbed Kita Ikuyo's paw and held it in his hand.

"That's really strange. Couldn't your friend or doctor apply the medicine? That would be faster, so they just dumped you on me..."

"Haha..."

Kita Ikuyo turned her head away; in fact, it was she who instructed them to do that.

"I can't see, so I don't hold back... If it hurts, you have to tell me."

"Yeah, it's okay! No matter how much it hurts, I'll bear it!"

Kita Yukiyo encouraged herself.

"Don't hold back."

Nekoyashiki Haru shook her head, then slowly applied the medicine.

Why are you working so hard today?

"Hmm~"

Kita Yukiyo pondered for a moment.

"Because I want to show you, senior, more of my amazing abilities!"

"... "

Nekoyashiki Haru's hand, which was applying ointment, trembled slightly.

"Ugh…"

Nekoyashiki Haru sighed as she put the ointment back into the bag.

"So it's all because of me."

"I didn't mean to blame you, senior."

"I know...but...never mind."

Nekoyashiki Haru sniffed the air, then turned around and took a towel out of the bag.

"He leaned his head closer, without even wiping his sweat."

"Huh?! Did you just smell my sweat?!"

Kita Ikuyo's face suddenly turned red.

"I can still smell it. Okay, stop talking and wipe your sweat first."

Kita Ikuyo leaned her head next to Nekoyashiki Haru, who then took out a towel and gently dried Kita Ikuyo's hair.

"Mmmmmmm..."

Why is it making such a strange sound?

"This happens when someone dries my hair."

"...Alright then."

Nekoyashiki Haru nodded in acceptance of the arrangement, then removed the towel.

Reach into the bag and take out a bottle of purified water.

"Have some water."

Kita Ikuyo hesitated for a moment before taking it.

"You've prepared quite a lot, senior..."

"This is within the normal range of what we would prepare."

"Nekoyashiki Haru said."

Kita Ikuyo smiled but didn't say anything. She just stared blankly at the bottled water in her hand, then suddenly handed it to Nekoyashiki Haru.

"I can't open it! Please open it for me, senior!"

"...Really?"

"Hurry up!"

"... "

Nekoyashiki Haru took the bottle of purified water, unscrewed the cap, and handed it back to Kita Ikuyo.

Kita Ikuyo took it and put it in her mouth.

"So sweet~"

"It's just ordinary purified water."

Nekoyashiki Haru spoke, then hesitated, as if she wanted to say something but stopped herself.

"Please say whatever you want to say, senior."

Kita Ikuyo laughed.

"Hmm... well, that means you don't need to show me anything about how amazing you are..."

Nekoyashiki Haru sighed, then smiled and patted Kita Ikuyo's head.

"Didn't I tell you? I've been watching you all along, so I know how amazing you are."

Kita Ikuyo blankly enjoyed Nekoyashiki Haru's petting and his words.

"... "

dokidoki!

My heart is racing…

Chapter 179 Night

"Correct A."

"Ichi Nijika said in a calm tone."

"2."

Yamada Ryo narrowed his eyes and tossed out a playing card.

"no, do not want…"

Goto Ichiri shook his head nervously.

Ichika looked at Goto Ichiri with dead fish eyes.

"...Poch hasn't played a single card since the game started..."

"Ahhh..."

Facial features began to shift.

Suddenly pulled into a poker game, Goto Ichiri, who had a slight understanding of the rules, was stunned as soon as he received the cards.
