Lonely Rock for the Blind.

Dahei Yin slowly tilted his head, his black hair cascading down like a waterfall, and his dark green pupils seemed to carry an unknown meaning.

"...Is that you?"

"…What?"

Ichi Nijika clenched her fist.

"Was it because Xiaohongxia did something that Qing left home? He went to the convenience store to buy alcohol. I took him back, and he seemed very sad..."

"... "

Ichi Nijika gritted her teeth.

"I don't mean to blame you. I just want to ask you what you did, as Qing's friend, as Qing's roommate who has lived with me for so many days, and as someone I unilaterally consider to be 'kind' to you?"

Dahei Yinyi said softly.

"I…"

Just as Ichi Nijika was about to speak, she was interrupted by Ooku Otomi.

"Tell me, and I can comfort Qing..."

Daikoku Oto placed her hand on her chest and spoke to Ichiji Nijika.

"I'll comfort Qing; Xiao Hongxia doesn't need to worry."

"... "

Ichi Niji Natsu narrowed her eyes.

She lowered her head.

"I... broke into the kitten's house and scared him...that's pretty much why..."

"is that so…"

Dahei Yin nodded.

"The surprise is better than I expected..."

Dahei Yin nodded.

"But... Qing should have already said she forgave you, right? Or maybe she doesn't blame you at all?"

"... "

Ichi Nijika nodded.

"...I understand. I'll head back now, Xiaohongxia too..."

Dahei Yin had already turned around and was about to leave.

However, just as she turned around, Ichiki Nijika's voice rang out.

"Wait a moment."

"... "

Daheiyin had already turned around.

In the darkness, she gazed at the girl bathed in the sunset. The light was soft, yet it prevented her from seeing Ichiji Nijika's expression.

"Miss Pa...do you like kittens?"

"That's what Ichiji Nijika asked."

"... "

Dahei Yin opened his mouth.

We've been discovered... no... I never intended to hide it anyway.

Ultimately... friends, roommates, kindred spirits, these things are just excuses.

the answer is…

"...You like it, don't you? Maybe?"

"...Is that so...I understand..."

Ichi Nijika nodded, then lifted her foot.

Tap, tap, tap…

Slowly walking towards Daikoku Otoko.

As she emerged from the sunset, the girl's blonde hair bounced, pulling her ribbons along with it.

Let's go to [Starry Sky] together.

"…What?"

“I said let’s go together. I have no reason to stand here and wait for you to leave.”

Ichi Nijika stepped over Okoro Otomi and headed downstairs.

Dahei Yin was stunned and stood there.

The situation wasn't quite what she expected... She had originally thought that it would be Ijichi Nijika who was standing there frozen in place...

Snap...

Ichi Nijika suddenly stopped walking.

“…Um, Ms. PA…”

Upon hearing the voice, Ooku pursed his lips and slowly turned to look at Ichiji Nijika.

Ichiji Niji Natsuya was also looking back at her, with a warm smile on her face, like sunshine.

"I can comfort the kitten myself, there's no need to trouble Miss Pa."

"... "

Dahei Yin's dark green pupils contracted slightly.

"…ah…"

Chapter 238 The hug was fake... the harem is real?! (Also)

The four people sat quietly in the rehearsal room.

Nijika Ichichi nervously shook the drumsticks.

Kita Ikuyo lowered her head, her face flushed, seemingly lost in thought.

Goto Ichiri fiddled with his fingers.

Yamada Ryo had his eyes closed, as if he were asleep while sitting.

“…I said…”

Yamada Ryo opened his eyes.

"Is this a meditation practice?"

"..." × 3

The three of them looked at Yamada Ryo together.

Yamada Ryo sighed.

"You're not all wondering why Cat-kun isn't here, are you?"

"..." × 3

The three remained silent.

Yamada Ryo narrowed his eyes.

"He said he'll be back tomorrow."

"Tomorrow...? How does Ryo-senpai know?"

Kita Ikuyo inquired.

He told me this afternoon.

Yamada Ryo answered casually.

"Did you look for Senior Liang this afternoon?"

Kita Ikuyo then asked.

"Yes, he told me some interesting things."

Yamada Ryo nodded.

"Ah...yes, they contacted me too..."

Goto Ichiri hurriedly replied, as if afraid of being forgotten.

Kita Ikuyo looked at Goto Ichiri, then at Yamada Ryo, and finally turned to look at Ijichi Nijika.

"Hmm? Ah... I met the kitten today too."

Ichi Nijika nodded.

"...Huh? So...so I'm the only one who hasn't seen you today, senpai?!"

Kita Ikuyo's eyes widened, and she quickly pulled out her phone.

"what?"

Yamada Ryo looked at Kita Ikuyo and asked.

"...Check if my senior has sent me a message; I didn't notice."

"...Um...So, is there one?"

"No…"

Kita Ikuyo put down her phone.

"...Why don't you ever contact me..."
