Lonely Rock for the Blind

Nekoyashiki Haru waved his hand.

"School has already started, and those four have all gone to school, so I suddenly feel a little emotional."

"Oh...I see."

Pa-san nodded, then handed over a Pocky and gently tapped the corner of Nekoyashiki's mouth with it.

Nekoyashiki Haru opened his mouth, bit it, and then ate it with a crunching sound.

"By the way, Nekayashiki-kun didn't go to high school?"

"I dropped out of school midway, and I went to an art school, which is different from ordinary high schools in Japan."

Nekoyashiki Haru shook his head and asked.

"What about you?"

"...Just like you, I dropped out before the end of the first semester~"

Pa-san said in a tone of pretending to be indifferent.

"What happened?"

Nekoyashiki Haru took another Pocky from Pa-san.

"No, I can't get up in the morning."

Pa-san nodded.

“…Eh…”

Nekoyashiki Haru curled her lips and didn't know what to say for a moment.

"The best time for me as a student was summer vacation."

Pa-sang shook his head.

"Look, after we stop going to school, every day is like summer vacation, and I'm having a pretty good time now."

"When you were drunk last time, you were complaining about cooking but no one ate, and no one waiting for you at home... It seems like you're not very satisfied with your current life."

Nekoyashiki Haru said, and Pa-san shuddered.

"...at least I can support myself!"

"Ah...I'm using this as the standard."

Nekayashiki Haru nodded and stopped talking.

Click.

The door of Fanxing was pushed open, and Yidizhi Xingge walked in with a mop.

Looking at the two people sitting at the bar, chatting and laughing while eating Pocky, my forehead couldn't help but throb.

"...You two are getting paid, right?... Please help me a little..."

Pa-san looked at Ichichi Xingge and smiled.

"Manager~ This isn't my job. Nekoyashiki-kun is blind and it's hard for him to do physical work~"

Ichichi Xingge twitched the corners of her mouth.

Nekoyashiki Haru added.

"You can deduct my salary, I don't mind."

"Ugh…"

Ijichi Xingge sighed and walked towards the two of them.

"Forget it, let's not clean it. Let's wait until they get out of school."

"Is that right? Take some more rest."

Pa-san raised his drink and said.

"Leave your worries alone, they will resolve themselves after a while."

"... "

Ijichi Xingge narrowed his eyes, then suddenly laughed and said.

"You're still as lazy as ever, Dahei."

"!"

Pa-san shuddered, then looked at Ichichi Xingge's smirk and understood everything.

He turned to look at Nekoyashiki Haru who was standing next to him with a puzzled expression.

"What is Dahei?"

"Last name, the one next to you."

"... "

Nekoyashiki turned to face Pa-san.

"So you have a name, Pa-san."

"I must have a name! Why do you think I don't have one?!"

Pa-san explained hurriedly.

"Because you never introduced yourself to me... and besides, the last name Dahei is rare."

"…Yes…"

Pa-san nodded and responded softly.

"What's your full name then?"

“…Ah…that’s…”

Pa-sang began to hesitate.

"Da Hei Yin Mi."

Ichichi Xingge Bangpa-san said.

"... "

Nekoyashiki Haru blinked.

"Gu..."

Pa-san put his head on the bar.

"Oh, what's wrong, Miss Daihei? Isn't that a nice name? Why do you look so shocked?"

Ichichi Hoshige asked with a smirk.

"What's wrong with this name?"

Nekoyashiki Haru tilted his head curiously.

"...Don't you think... that's super chuunibyou... Otomi and the like..."

Pa-sang raised his head.

"It literally translates to 'Sound Snake'. I don't want to say such a childish name!"

"…ah…"

Nekoyashiki Haru blinked.

"And the surname Daihei is also rare, so almost everyone is amazed... I don't want to be amazed by my name..."

"I understand that."

Nekoyashiki Haru nodded.

There must be at least a few hundred or even more than a thousand Dahei people.

But the surname Nekoyashiki is probably going to be in the single digits...

So Nekayashiki Haru still felt touched by the fact that people were amazed at his surname.

Ichichi Hoshige added.

"This guy refused to say his name when introducing himself for this very reason."

Pa-sang raised his head.

"There are only a few people I know well anyway...names are not important."

"I think you only told me and Hongxia? Hongxia might not even remember it."

"Why do you say she might not remember?"

Pa-san blinked.

"…Have you ever heard my sister call your name?"

"... "

Pa-sang covered his head again.

boom!

Hearing the sound, Catyashiki Haru reached out and gently patted Pa-san's shoulder.

"Isn't it nice to hear?"

"...It's not nice... Just like Kita-chan hated her name, Ikuyo, but most people actually think it's cute... Being embarrassed about your own name isn't something others can relate to."

Pa-san raised his upper body and patted Nekayashikiharu's shoulder in return.

"As someone with a rare surname, please go out for a drink with me tonight."

"…Why…"

"Oh, you don't have to ask that."

Pa-san smiled and looked up at Ichichi Hoshige, who had a look of surprise and doubt on her face after hearing the invitation.

"It's my treat."

"That's not bad, I should be fine tonight..."

Nekoyashiki Haru nodded.

To be honest, he really doesn't want to stay at home recently.

Every time I walked into the house, I felt something was wrong.

At night, I always feel like there are countless pairs of eyes staring at me, but I can't hear any human voices.

He began to wonder if his apartment was haunted just like Ju Li's.
