Lonely Rock for the Blind

"So where do you get all these weird nicknames?"

"I heard it at Ochanomizu."

Yamada Ryo nodded and continued.

"He treats you as his sister."

“That was before…”

Ijichi Hongxia looked into the distance.

"Kitty definitely can't do that now. After all, everything has been brought up and he seems to have become much more straightforward recently."

"Well... you might as well just make it a done deal."

"what?"

Ijichi Hongxia stared blankly at Yamada Ryo, her cheeks slowly heating up and turning red.

"I know Cat Barrett well. He's very kind-hearted. When the time comes, you can take the child to see him..."

"shut up!"

Snapped!

Ijichi Hongka jumped up and tapped Yamada Ryo on the head gently.

"it hurts…"

Yamada Ryo exaggerated his pained expression.

Ijichi Hongxia looked away.

"By the way, who do you think has a better chance of winning, me or Xiao Xiduo?"

"... "

Yamada Ryo blinked.

"I think your sister has a better chance of winning."

"?!"

Ijichi Hongxia opened her eyes wide.

"No, it should be Kikuri-senpai, then your sister, and Pa-san is not to be underestimated..."

"Are our chances of winning so low?!"

"Don't underestimate the power of MILF control."

Yamada Ryo shook his head.

"So let's consider it a done deal."

"That was the last resort..."

Ijichi Hongxia said subconsciously, then quickly covered her mouth.

“…As a last resort…”

Yamada Ryo narrowed his eyes.

"I was just saying it! I was joking! Don't take it seriously!"

Ijichi Hongka's cheeks turned completely red like apples, and the girl ran towards the door of the rooftop.

"I'm leaving! Class is about to start, aren't you leaving yet?"

"I'll be in a moment."

"Then I don't care about you anymore!"

Ijichi Hongxia opened the door.

Click...

"Hongxia."

"Ok?"

Ijichi Hongka turned around and looked at Yamada Ryo.

"sorry."

Yamada Ryo said calmly.

"... "

Ijichi Hongxia blinked and then smiled.

"It's ok."

"... "

Click.

The door closes.

Under the sky, Yamada Ryo raised his head.

"Ha~yawn..."

Then he yawned loudly.

"Did you study too late yesterday..."

Yamada Ryo felt the breeze for a while, then walked towards the rooftop entrance.

"Perhaps a bit too much time has been wasted so far."

Click.

The door opened and Yamada Ryo entered.

Chapter 175: Incompatibility

Stars.

Gurgle…

The boy sucked the energy drink into his mouth through the straw.

Ijichi Hoshige, who was standing next to him, looked at Nekayashiki Haru next to him, pursed her lips and asked.

“…So this isn’t going, right?”

"Yeah, are you disappointed Sister Xingge?"

"Uh…"

Ijichi Xingge handed over a bottle of energy drink, as if to please her.

"The main thing is, I didn't expect you to be so reluctant to go. Are you really mad at me?"

"How could I be angry about something like this?"

Nekoyashiki Haru shook his head.

"That's good."

Ijichi Xingge tilted her head and sipped the juice through a straw.

Nekoyashiki Haru blinked and asked.

"Has the End Band's next performance been scheduled?"

"Next month."

This time it was not Ijichi Hoshige who answered Nekayashiki Haru, but Pa-san who was sitting at another table.

“The store manager lined them up right away.”

"The first time..."

Nekoyashiki Haru smiled at Ijichi Hoshige.

"...because they performed really well at the school festival..."

"Ah."

Nekayashiki Haru nodded, indicating that he knew everything.

Ijichi Seika scratched his head, then reached out to pet the golden retriever next to Nekoyashiki Haru.

“Woof…”

The golden retriever barked softly.

Nekoyashiki Haru said after a moment's pause.

"Then again, I still don't bring it in during the evening business hours."

Nekoyashiki Haru said.

“It’s bad for people and dogs.”

"Ah."

Ijichi Xingge nodded, got down from the chair, squatted down and began to stroke the dog's head attentively.

"The store manager really likes cute things."

Pa-san put down his phone and said.

"whispering sound…"

Yidizhi Xingge sneered at the teasing voice of Pa-sang behind him, and took out some dried meat from his pocket and put it in front of the dog's mouth.

“Come and try it…”

“Woof…”

The dog's head tilted away.

"Ah...you don't want to eat?"

Yidizhi Xingge took the dried meat away awkwardly.

"It's okay, just eat."

Nekoyashiki Haru said softly.

"Wang!"

The golden retriever opened its mouth and snatched the dried meat from the singer of Ijichi Star.

"I ate it... hehe."

Ichichi Hoshige smiled a pure smile.

Nekoyashiki Haru was listening to Ijichi Hoshige's laughter nearby.

"By the way, autumn is here now. It was so cold when I woke up this morning."

Pa-sang suddenly spoke.

"If it's cold now, won't winter be even worse? Are you so afraid of the cold?"

Nekoyashiki Haru asked.

"Ah... being cold is one thing, but it's mainly because of this kind of weather that's cool but not too cold."

Pa-sang shook his head.

"It feels like a waste to turn on the heating because it's not cold enough. If it were winter, turning on the heating would be fine, so winter is actually a little more bearable."

“…If it’s cold, just turn on the heater.”

Nekoyashiki Haru couldn't understand the behavior of people who thought it was a waste and would rather freeze than turn on the heating.

"Prices have gone up again recently... There's nothing I can do about it. I have to consider many things."

pa-sang, get down.
