Lonely Rock for the Blind

The shoelaces were also fluttering restlessly in the wind.

Every time a goal was scored, applause from the seniors would ring out.

Kita Ikuyo had never played such a relaxing and enjoyable basketball game.

Although it was said at the beginning that one could exert 200% of one's strength when being watched, it was actually just talk.

But now I see... maybe it's really like that?

Flowing through the crowd like flowing water.

"come on!"

Nekoyashiki Haru turned up the volume.

Hearing the cheers, Kita Ikuyo opened her eyes wide and jumped up.

The basketball in his hand is lifted into the basket.

The shoelaces flowed into two bundles...

boom!

The last goal went in without a doubt.

Snapped!

Kita Ikuyo fell down stepping on her shoelaces.

咔…

There was a bad sound from the ankle.

Kita Ikuyo opened her eyes wide.

"Goo!"

"Yudai?!"

"Xiao Xiduo?!" ×N

...

……

.........

“Hiss… Haah…”

On the playground, sitting on a cushion, Kita Ikuyo covered her feet with her hands and looked crying.

"Woo..."

"The infirmary teacher said it's nothing serious, just rest."

Nekoyashiki Haru said as he sat next to her.

After being sent to the infirmary and quickly checked to make sure she was fine, Kita Ikuyo was immediately thrown to Nekoyashiki Haru by her friends.

On the open-air playground, Nekayashiki grabbed Kita Ikuyo's feet into his own hands.

"That's weird. Can't your friend or doctor apply some medicine? That would be faster. In the end, I just left you to me..."

"Ah ha ha…"

Kita Ikuyo turned her head away. In fact, she was the one who instructed them to do that.

"I can't see, so I didn't use any force... If it hurts, tell me."

"Yeah, it's okay! I'll endure it no matter how much it hurts!"

Kita Ikuyo encouraged herself.

"Don't hold it back."

Nekayashiki Haru shook his head and then slowly applied the medicine.

"What are you working so hard for today?"

"Hmm~"

Kita Ikuyo pondered for a while.

"Because I want you to see more of my amazing abilities, Senior!"

"... "

Nekayashiki Haru's hand, which was applying the ointment, trembled slightly.

"Ugh…"

Putting the ointment back into the bag, Nekayashiki Haru sighed.

"So it's still because of me."

"I don't mean to blame you, Senior."

"I know...but...never mind."

Nekoyashiki Haru sniffed, then turned around and took out a towel from the bag.

"Lean your head over here, you haven't even wiped the sweat off."

"Huh?! Did you just smell my sweat?!"

Kita Ikuyo's face suddenly turned red.

"I can smell it all the time. Okay, stop talking and wipe the sweat off first."

Kita Ikuyo leaned her head next to Nekayashiki Haru, who took out a towel and gently wiped Kita Ikuyo's hair.

“Mmmmm…”

"Why are you making such strange noises?"

"This happens when someone wipes my hair."

"…Fine."

Nekoyashiki Haru nodded in acceptance of this, then took the towel away.

Reach into the bag and take out some purified water.

"Drink some water."

Kita Ikuyo was stunned for a moment before taking it.

"Senior, you've prepared quite a lot..."

“This is the normal range of preparation.”

Nekoyashiki Haru said.

Kita Ikuyo smiled but said nothing. She just stared at the purified water in her hand in a daze, then suddenly handed it to Nekayashiki Haru.

"I can't open it! Please help me open it, Senior!"

“…Is this true?”

"Hurry up!"

"... "

Nekoyashiki Haru took the purified water, unscrewed the cap, and handed it back to Kita Ikuyo.

Kita Ikuyo took it and put it into her mouth.

“So sweet~”

"Just plain, pure water."

Nekayashiki Haru spoke, then stopped talking.

"Senior, just say whatever you want to say."

Kita Ikuyo laughed.

"Hmm... well, I mean, there's no need for you to show me how awesome you are..."

Nekoyashiki Haru sighed, then smiled and patted Kita Ikuyo's head.

"Didn't I tell you? I've been watching you the whole time, so I know how powerful you are."

Kita Ikuyo was dazedly feeling Nekayashiki Haru's touch and what he said.

"... "

dokidoki!

My heartbeat quickened...

Chapter 179 Night

"Right A."

Ijichi Hongxia said in a calm tone.

"Yes 2."

Yamada Ryo narrowed his eyes and threw out the playing cards.

"no, do not want…"

Goto Ichiri shook his head nervously.

Ijichi Nijina looked at Goto Ichiri with dead fish eyes.

"...Pochi hasn't played a card since the start of the game..."

"Ahhhh..."

The facial features began to shift.

Goto Ichiri was suddenly pulled into playing poker. After understanding the rules a little, he was shocked when he took the cards.

It seems... too big?

If I just play it out and crush the two of them... wouldn't that be too arrogant?

No matter what, you two are seniors!

"Pochi, go out if you want. Don't worry about us."

Yamada Ryo gave Goto Ichiri a thumbs-up.

"... "

Goto Ichiri swallowed his saliva and gently took out four kings.

"...that...b-bomb..."

“…No.” ×2

"Even the same..."

"No."×2

"Shunzi..."

“…”×2

The two of them looked at Goto Ichiri quietly, waiting for her to play the next card.

“…I don’t have any more ace bombs.”

"Pochi, the winner shuffles the cards."

Yamada Ryo threw out his cards and said.

"Eh?!"

Goto Ichiri shuddered.

"The loser shuffles the cards, and you just threw them away, so you shuffle."
