Lonely Rock for the Blind.

"...It's not here either..."

"what?"

Ichi Seika frowned.

"...I'm looking for Qing, but I haven't found her yet."

Eliza smiled and said.

"That won't do, I'll send a message and ask..."

Ijichi Hoshika took out her phone, but was interrupted by Eliza.

"No... Ijichi... no, Hoshika, may I call you Hoshika?"

"Hmm? Ah... Of course, no problem."

Ichi Seika nodded.

"...As expected...no matter what aspect, I can't compare to you."

"Hmm? Why, why are you suddenly bringing this up?"

Suddenly, Ijichi Seika's cheeks flushed slightly upon being praised.

"I used to be jealous of you guys... but now that I think about it, I shouldn't have been jealous of such wonderful people at all..."

Eliza struggled to keep her eyes open.

"...We can talk about those things later. Shall I take you to the hospital to get checked out?"

"…Need not…"

Eliza shook her head violently, her mind feeling as if it were rolling inside her skull, with waves of dull pain.

"...Actually...I...I'm the one who made Qing go blind."

"…What?"

The worried expression on Ijichi Seika's face suddenly disappeared.

Clap!

The juice was squeezed and burst.

"What did you say?!"

Ichiko Hoshika strode towards Eliza and then pulled her up.

"Why?!"

"...It was an accident...but it was an accident caused by me..."

Eliza stared at the blurry face in front of her.

"...Is this what you need to apologize to Qing for?"

Ichi Seika frowned.

“…Ah…yes…”

Eliza nodded.

"...And we talked to you so much yesterday..."

"It's because you've told me so much... that I understand... I can't just run away like this..."

Eliza swallowed hard.

"If...if Qing is willing to see me too...where will he go?"

"... "

Ijichi Hoshika's pupils contracted.

"...You...are asking me?"

"Hmm... because you know him very well."

Tears streamed down her cheeks.

"...I want to see him...Xingge..."

"... "

Ichi Hoshika took a deep breath.

Then he slowly vomited it out.

...

……

.........

Hiroi Kikuri was lying on the ground, lost in thought.

Staring blankly at the rain clouds in the sky.

"How long are you going to lie on the ground?"

Beside him, Iwashita Shima's voice rang out.

"...What...Shima..."

Hiroi Kikuri glanced at Iwashita Shima, who was holding an umbrella, and then continued to stare blankly at the rain clouds.

"...Don't lie on the ground, let's go."

Shima Iwashita said.

"Walk?"

Hiroi Kikuri paused for a moment.

"...Where are we going...And Shima, you're the one who told Eliza where we are, right?"

"...It's me."

Iwashita Shima nodded.

"...Haha...Why?"

Hiroi Kikuri chuckled lightly, then asked in a cold voice.

"...And you're the one talking? Look at you, you've given in too, haven't you?"

Iwashita Shima squatted down and brushed the strands of hair from Hiroi Kikuri's forehead to the sides.

"You've already forgiven her, haven't you?"

"…I don't…"

Hiroi Kikuri shook her head.

"I wasn't talking about Qing, I was talking about her leaving the band on her own. You've forgiven her, haven't you?"

Iwashita Shima shook his head, then asked.

"... "

Hiroi Kikuri remained silent.

After a long while, he responded softly.

"Um…"

"Ah... Well then, get up, let's go see them."

Iwashita Shima reached out and grabbed Hiroi Kikuri, then pulled her up forcefully.

Hiroi Kikuri swayed a few times.

"...Fine, I'll carry you on my back."

Iwashita Shima said helplessly.

"Um…"

Hiroi Kikuri agreed, and then Iwashita Shima carried her on her back.

The umbrella fell to the ground.

"...Have you forgiven her too?"

"Hiroi Kikuri asked from Iwashita Shima's back."

"...Ah, yes."

Iwashita Shima nodded.

"...So you really do want everyone to forgive each other and then be together...right?"

Kikuri Hiroi asked with a wry smile.

"…yes…"

Iwashita Shima nodded slightly.

"...That's so unfair to Qing..."

"So this is just a thought... Of course I know it's unfair to Haru... I just..."

Iwashita Shima sighed.

"...Never mind, I can't escape anyway..."

"What do you mean?"

Hiroi Kikuri asked.

"Literal meaning."

Iwashita Shima bounced Hiroi Kikuri on his back.

"Alright, Qing's girlfriend, where will he be taken?"

"...What do you think?"
