Chapter 165: All Lost

Nekoyashiki Haru opened the door.

Walking into the rehearsal room, Nekayashiki Haru was the first to speak.

"I'm a little tired, so I'll go back first. Are Yudai and Hongxia here?"

"Ah."

Ijichi Hongxia nodded.

"I am here…"

Kita Ikuyo spoke up.

Yamada Ryo said nothing.

“…your voices?”

Noticing the strangeness in the voice, Nekayashiki Haru frowned in confusion.

"what happens?"

Nekoyashiki Haru asked.

But no one responded.

"... "

Nekoyashiki Haru opened his mouth.

His first reaction was that they were arguing again.

So now I don’t know what to say.

But...it was decided before I came here!

Solve the problem here once and for all.

He closed the door behind him.

boom.

"Um, Hongxia, Yudai, I have something to say to you..."

Before Nekayashiki Haru could finish his words, he was interrupted by Ijichi Nikka and Kita Ikuyo at the same time.

"Kitten/Senior, we have something to tell you." ×2

"?"

Nekoyashiki Haru was slightly stunned.

Wait… Did Ryo tell them I already knew about their feelings? So now he's going to confront me directly?

To be honest... I'm a little nervous.

But Nekayashiki Haru still maintained a serious expression.

"Yeah, I'm listening."

He wondered what the two would say later.

Will he scold him... or will he just let him choose between the two of them?

There are some guesses about Nekoyashiki Haru.

But I didn’t guess...

"Kitten... go to Germany."

"...?"

Nekoyashiki Haru tilted her head.

The brain slowed down for a moment.

"That's right, Senior... We all know that in Germany, there's hope for you to regain your sight, right?"

Kita Ikuyo spoke up.

"...How did you...know that?"

There was tinnitus in my ears, and then my brain reacted.

"...Auntie Nekoyashiki just came."

Ichichi Hongxia said.

"... "

Nekayashiki Haru turned around and was about to open the door and leave, but was stopped by the quick-eyed and quick-handed Kita Ikuyo.

"open!"

Nekayashiki Haru's voice was filled with anger.

"She promised me...she promised me not to use you..."

"senior…"

Kita Ikuyo lowered her head and held onto Nekoyashiki Haru tightly.

Nekayashiki Haru turned back tremblingly, trying hard to suppress the surging emotions.

"Listen, don't worry about what she said. That's my business. It has nothing to do with you. Don't worry..."

"kitten!"

Ijichi Hongxia suddenly shouted loudly.

"...Hongxia?"

Confusion crossed Nekayashiki Haru's face.

Ijichi Nikka walked towards Nekoyashiki Haru.

"Ijichi-senpai..."

Kita Ikuyo looked at Ijichi Kouka who was walking towards her.

"Do you know...what's going on right now?"

Ijichi Nikka asked in front of Nekoyashiki Haru.

"Of course I know..."

Nekoyashiki Haru answered.

"Then what's there to hesitate about?!"

Ijichi Hongxia lowered her head and shouted loudly.

"That's regaining your sight! Seeing again! You've been blind for two years! You should know better than anyone what regaining your sight means! You like painting, right? Right? That's right! If that's the case, what's the point of hesitating? Go to Germany with Auntie now!"

"…ha?"

Nekoyashiki Haru's voice trembled.

Ijichi Hongxia gritted her teeth and continued.

"Why won't you leave? Why?! Because of us? Because of our band? You're not even in a band!"

"I've already told you... this is my business!"

"Stop being childish!"

boom!

Ijichi Nijina held Nekayashiki's two forearms and gently pushed him against the wall behind him.

"We don't need you...we don't need you to stay with us!"

"Hongxia...?"

"You're not that important! Qing! So hurry up and get to Germany!"

Ijichi Hongka's hands became stronger and stronger.

Nekayashiki Haru's brain was also overwhelmed by Ijichi Kouka's performance at the moment.

I couldn't see anything, nothing at all. In the void, there was only the familiar person in front of me, speaking unfamiliar words in a familiar voice, hitting me in the face.

"We are not the excuse! Stop acting like a child, Qing! Do you think this is just a game?! You know how hard it is for the blind! Seize the opportunity! Seize hope!!!"

"We don't need you... No one needs you! So... So hurry up and go to Germany! No one wants to be a burden to you!"

"Do you want to be blind your whole life?!"

After Ijichi Hongxia finished yelling, he suddenly lowered his head and gasped for breath.

Kita Ikuyo looked at Ijichi Nikka who was breathing heavily.

Nekayashiki Haru raised his hand, then put it down helplessly.

"Why did you hide such an important thing from us...Qing?"

Ijichi Hongxia calmed down for a while, then raised her head and continued to ask.

"Are you doing this...doing so that we can become a burden to your recovery and feel guilty for the rest of our lives?"

"?!"

Nekoyashiki Haru's purple eyes suddenly widened under his sunglasses.

"I…"

Kita Ikuyo said softly at this moment.

"Senior...go ahead."

Kita Ikuyo's red hair covered her eyes.

She said in a calm yet trembling voice.

"Go to Germany, get treatment actively, and then... we will continue to work hard."

Kita Ikuyo raised her head.

There were tears in her yellow-green eyes.

"We're ending the band... We'll continue on, so seniors don't need to worry about us... We'll just go to Germany for treatment..."

Kita Ikuyo clasped Nekayashiki Haru's hands with both of hers.

"When the time comes... Senpai comes back and we get to know each other again, because that's when he'll know what I look like for the first time... right?"

"... "

Yamada Ryo twisted his body uncomfortably, and the chair made a noise.

Nekoyashiki Haru, stunned by the two people's advice, turned towards the source of the sound.

"…cold?"

"... "

Yamada Ryo opened his mouth.

Nekoyashiki Haru's voice was trembling, like the groaning of an abandoned stray cat...

I should say something at this point... I should tell him something...

but…

Yamada Ryo had no idea what to do.

So she remained silent.

"...Liang...say something."
