Lonely Rock for the Blind

The magical girls on TV seemed to be using magic of unknown principles to defeat monsters as big as mountains.

Nekayashiki Haru blinked, then pulled out a tissue from the coffee table in front of her.

He rolled up the ball slightly and threw it to Ichichi Hongxia.

"[False Sun Implosion]...boom!"

Nekoyashiki Haru imitated the names of the monsters' moves on TV and added onomatopoeia after saying them.

"... "

The paper ball hit her hand, and Ijichi Hongxia looked at Nekoyashiki Haru blankly.

Nekayashiki Haru looked at the silent Ijichi Nikka calmly...actually not that calm.

The boy had an expressionless face and a drop of cold sweat on his forehead.

Why...isn't she speaking yet?

Did I just... pronounce it wrong?

Just when Nekayashiki Haru was feeling uneasy, the girl's voice rang out.

"Well, the things on TV are not real."

Ijichi Nikka put down the rolling pin and started explaining to Nekayashiki Haru.

Nekayashiki Haru's cheeks flushed slightly.

"I...I'm playing with you."

"what?"

Ijichi Hongxia was slightly stunned.

He lowered his head to look at the rolling pin, then raised his head to look at Nekoyashiki Haru.

"Playing... with me?"

"Ah."

Nekoyashiki Haru lowered his head and replied.

"You seemed unhappy because your sister didn't play with you, so I thought you should be happier playing with you like this."

Nekayashiki Haru raised his head, and there seemed to be a hint of dissatisfaction in his voice.

“…I know what’s on TV is fake…”

Ijichi Hongxia's red eyes trembled slightly.

She put down the rolling pin, crawled in front of Nekayashiki Haru, and gently touched Nekayashiki Haru's head.

"Thank you!"

“…Why are you touching my head?”

"Because that's how the teacher praises us."

Ijichi Hongxia jumped off the sofa and ran away.

The clattering sound of footsteps and the blurry figure trembled in front of Nekoyashiki Haru.

After a while, Ijichi Nikka ran up to Nekoyashiki Haru with a bunch of toys in her arms.

"Come play! Play with me!"

Ijichi Hongka said with a bright smile.

"…Um."

Nekoyashiki Haru nodded.

Chapter 192 Autumn Flowers (2)

"I'm back…"

A girl with short yellow hair walked into the room, carrying a guitar on her back.

He closed the door and looked up.

Two heads came up from the sofa in the distance.

Ichichi Xingge was stunned.

"…What?"

One of them is undoubtedly his annoying sister, Ichichi Nikka.

But the other guy with black hair and purple eyes was completely gone from Xingge's memory.

"...Where did this little brat come from? Did you kidnap him, Hongxia?"

Ijichi Hoshige walked towards the two of them, unhooking his guitar and placing it on the stool next to him.

"Pfft! No way! The kitten was brought back by its mother."

Ichichi Hongxia said while making a face at Ichichi Xingge.

Ijichi Xingge blinked, then turned and shouted towards the kitchen.

"Mom! Our family is going to adopt an orphan?"

"What are you talking about..."

In the kitchen, a woman poked her head out.

"That's the neighbor's kid. His parents are busy, so we'll take extra care of him. Don't bully him."

"Huh? I bullied him in high school? I'm that kind of person?"

Ichichi Hoshige walked towards the sofa.

Then I saw the toys scattered in front of Ijichi Nikka and Nekayashiki Haru.

"I'm telling you guys, put your toys away."

Ichichi Xingge scratched his head impatiently.

“I don’t even have a place to sit.”

"... "

Hearing the voice, Nekoyashiki Haru looked up at Ijichi Hoshika.

The deep purple pupils sparkled like gems.

"?!"

Ijichi Seika, who hadn't noticed Nekoyashiki Haru's specific appearance just now, was stunned.

"Cough cough..."

Then the next moment I came to my senses.

Ijichi Xingge tilted her head to cover her mouth, then coughed softly.

Maybe the sound was a little louder just now?

After all, they are just two little kids...

"I won't give my sister a seat..."

At this time, Ijichi Hongxia turned her head awkwardly and said.

"Kitten! We've taken over the couch together!"

Ijichi Nikka shook Nekayashiki Haru's shoulders.

"... "

Nekoyashiki Haru blinked, then nodded obediently.

"Hey!"

Ichichi Xingge shouted in dissatisfaction.

"Oh my... no need to quarrel."

In the kitchen, a woman with yellow hair came out.

"This has nothing to do with me! It's Hong Xia..."

Ichichi Xingge decided to file a complaint first.

"I don't want to put my toys away! I'm not done playing with them yet!"

Ijichi Hongxia immediately made her bottom line clear.

“…you little brat…”

Ichichi Xingge twitched the corners of her mouth.

"Then Hongxia, can you sit on your sister's lap?"

The woman asked softly.

"do not want!"

Ichichi Hongxia, who was still angry about today's missed appointment, turned her head and said.

"Oops..."

The woman was embarrassed.

The purple pupils instantly caught the woman's embarrassment.

"... "

After a moment of silence, Nekayashiki Haru jumped off the sofa.

"I'm going back."

After saying that, he prepared to leave on his own.

嗒…

Then he was caught by the woman.

"Really... why are all the kids a little problematic?"

The woman shook her head.

"What does it have to do with me..."

Ichichi Hoshige whispered, crossing her arms.

"Hey, Xingge, is it okay for this kid to sit on your lap?"

The woman picked up the cat, Yashiki Haru, and said to Ijichi Seika.

"If it's just for a little while, watch some cartoons with them."

"Huh? Why would I…"

"Because you promised Hongxia before, right?"

"this…"

Yidizhi Xingge turned her head away guiltily.

"Alright, alright, let's just consider it as compensation now."

The woman pushed Ijichi Seika onto the sofa and placed Nekayashiki Haru on her lap.

"Xiaoqing, the same goes! Don't think about leaving all the time. No one thinks you're superfluous."

The woman spoke to Nekayashiki Haru with a slightly serious tone.

"... "

Nekoyashiki Haru blinked, then nodded.

"Then I'll continue cooking. You guys should get along well."

The blonde woman rushed to the kitchen.
