Lonely Rock for the Blind.

Since we're preparing T-shirts, there aren't many other things we need to prepare...

"Anyway...we have our own plans...haha..."

Ichi Nijika turned around and pushed Kita Ikuyo forward.

"Um...actually, I originally wanted to give something more special..."

Kita Ikuyo said softly.

"However, I think Ijichi-senpai is right, we should give a more normal gift!"

"Normal? Then what's abnormal?"

Nekoyashiki Haru blinked.

"You'll find out later, senior, this is my gift!"

Kita Ikuyo took out a small box.

"This is a necklace I made myself... Although it's not very well made, I think it can really express my feelings."

Kita Ikuyo opened the box and took out the necklace.

A silver-gray chain held a jet-black cat-shaped pendant.

"Please bend down, senior."

As Nekoyashiki Haru was about to bend down, Kita Ikuyo put the necklace on Nekoyashiki Haru's head.

"You should keep wearing it from now on."

Kita Ikuyo laughed.

"Well, I see."

Nekoyashiki Haru nodded seriously.

Yuuko Otsuki, standing to the side, smacked her lips, feeling a sour taste in her mouth.

"Ah... um... my gift is... a ring..."

"?!" ×7

Everyone looked at Goto Ichiri in shock.

Goto Ichiri took out the iron-gray ring.

"Hehe... I ground it myself, and it even had my hair tangled in it and dripped with my blood..."

"...That sounds like a curse..."

Dahei Yin covered her mouth and said.

"...Eh? A curse?"

Goto Ichiri was startled.

Then he looked at the somewhat ugly ring on his hand.

"...Then...then let's just throw it away..."

"No need to throw it away, give it to me."

Nekoyashiki Haru reached out her hand to Goto Ichiri.

"Qing... are you alright?"

Goto Ichiri asked cautiously.

"No problem, it's not a real curse."

Haru Nekoyashiki took the ring from Ichiri Goto and then put it on her middle finger.

"It feels pretty good."

Nekoyashiki Haru said with a smile.

"Thank you... Qing..."

"You're the one who gave the gift, so why are you thanking me?"

Nekoyashiki Haru shook her head.

Behind Nekoyashiki Haru, Ooku Neko walked over and put a pair of headphones on Nekoyashiki Haru's head.

"Ok?"

"This is my gift, and the sound quality is excellent."

"Daikoku Otoichi said."

"Thank you, Otomi."

Nekoyashiki Haru expressed her gratitude.

"Oh, right, this is the store manager's gift."

Daikoku Oto put another small box into Nekoya Shikiharu's pocket.

"It looks like an electric shaver or something?"

"...She finally gave me something tangible..."

"?"

Dahei Yin tilted his head.

Nekoyashiki Haru shook her head, then asked.

"Didn't Eliza come?"

"That guy said he had something to do today and didn't have time to come."

Iwashita Shima replied.

"I see."

Nekoyashiki Haru nodded.

Then he took a deep breath and said.

"Anyway, thank you so much everyone for celebrating my birthday today."

...

……

.........

night.

At the door of Nekoyashiki Haru's house.

Ichi Nijika swallowed hard.

The yellow gift ribbon bow tied on her head was exceptionally eye-catching.

I'm sorry everyone... It's cunning, but I'm going to do it now...

Don't blame me for being despicable...

Ichi Nijika pounded her chest, as if to encourage herself.

"Eh?"

A voice suddenly came from beside me.

Ichi Nijika paused for a moment, then turned to look at her side.

A huge pink gift box walked over from the side, and in the center of the box, Goto Ichiri's face appeared.

“…Po…Pochi?”

"...Hongxia..."

Ichi Nijika's hands trembled.

Why did Pochi also...?

"Ah... Koichi... Ichichi-senpai?"

Kita Ikuyo, who had tied herself up with a red ribbon, slowly jumped over.

"...What are you...doing here?"

"Didn't we agree that we wouldn't send inappropriate gifts?!"

Ichi Nijika asked in return.

"Wait...no! Then what are you doing, Ijichi-senpai?"

"I…"

Yi Di Zhi Hong Xia was speechless.

"What a coincidence!"

Yamada Ryo walked over calmly, a ribbon tied around her back.

"...Why did you get cold too..."

"Just sending a belt feels too insincere, so I've decided to try out your ideas."

"..." × 4

call…

A night breeze blew by.

The three of them stood at the entrance of the apartment building, sharing a box.

After a while...

“…Let’s go back.”

"…it is good."

"agree."
