Lonely Rock for the Blind

Ijichi Hongxia glared at Yamada Ryo in dissatisfaction, but still added helpfully.

Yamada Ryo turned his head as if he didn't see it.

"what…"

Kita Ikuyo is troubled by the current situation.

"Really? Why are we still quarreling after all this..."

Kita Ikuyo sighed.

"I already said it wasn't a quarrel..."

Ijichi Hongka started to explain, but was interrupted by Yamada Ryo.

“Because we have different opinions but also share the same concerns.”

Yamada Ryo stood up and walked towards the door.

"I'm going home today. I'm too lazy to work."

“Then the salary will be reduced.”

Nekoyashiki Haru dissuaded him.

"It's okay. If you have no money, I'll lend it to you."

“…Be more self-reliant.”

Nekoyashiki Haru was speechless.

"Ah…"

Yamada Ryo chuckled and walked out the door.

Suddenly, Yamada Ryo stopped and looked back at Kita Ikuyo.

Kita Ikuyo was stunned when she was suddenly stared at.

"…Ryo-senpai?"

"... "

Yamada Ryo was silent for a while.

"Is there anything you want to tell me?"

Kita Ikuyo asked.

Yamada Ryo shook his head.

Then he spoke softly.

"Yudai, you too."

"what?"

Kita Ikuyo tilted her head in confusion.

But Yamada Ryo did not answer, but walked out the door on his own.

“…”×4

The room fell silent at the same time.

Until the voice of Ichichi Hoshige was heard from outside the rehearsal room's unlocked door.

[Cold? Time to work, right? Go mop the floor...]

【Why are you going to the door? The mop is over there.】

[Tattattattatt…bang!]

【Why did you run away?! 】

Inside the rehearsal room, everyone looked at each other in silence.

...

……

.........

"I have no idea what Ryo-senpai means. You should know, right, Ijichi-senpai? Can you tell me?"

Kita Ikuyo looked at Ijichi Kouka who was in a daze beside her and asked.

"You suddenly said something strange like 'You too' to me. I don't understand it at all."

Kita Ikuyo shook her head and continued.

"...Liang... That's just how it is. Occasionally, some strange ideas pop up."

Ijichi Hongxia explained softly.

She didn't intend to explain to Kita Ikuyo what exactly Yamada Ryo meant. After all, what she thought might not be what she thought.

Anyway, when the time comes, Yamada Ryo will definitely find an opportunity to talk to Kita Ikuyo himself.

And if she didn't plan to talk to Xiao Xiduo, there was no need for her to say anything.

Ijichi Hongxia raised her head and looked behind the counter in the distance.

The ones there today are Goto Ichiri and Nekayashiki Haru.

“…Are you uneasy?”

Ichichi Hongxia said softly.

"what?"

Kita Ikuyo looked at Ichichi Nikka.

"…Do you think Kitty has been feeling restless lately?"

Ijichi Hongxia asked.

"disturbed?"

Kita Ikuyo looked at Nekoyashiki Haru in the distance.

"Hello, your drink."

With his powerful memory, Nekoyashiki Haru can skillfully use beverage machines with a fixed layout.

Goto Ichiri was trying hard to maintain his human form to receive the guests.

"I feel pretty good. Xiao Yili can now hold his head up and face the customers!"

Kita Ikuyo laughed.

"Oh, by the way, Ijichi-senpai, there's an event going on at the nearby mall in a few days! Let's all go check it out. Ryo-senpai might even treat you to a few cups of ice cream..."

Kita Ikuyo's voice rang out.

But in Ijichi Hongxia's ears, the sound was slowly replaced by a buzzing sound.

The blonde girl was stunned when she saw Kita Ikuyo.

Anxiety... lack of a sense of crisis...

Then Ijichi Nijinaka looked at Nekoyashiki Haru in the distance.

We seem to be always so slow...

but…

"Ah, you're so handsome, bro. Do you want to add your contact information?"

The female audience who came to watch the live show took out her cell phone and asked.

"No thanks."

Nekayashiki Haru smiled politely and refused.

“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh…”

Goto Ichiri, who was standing next to him, had his facial features shaking and trembling because of the sudden approach.

"It's okay, it's okay."

Nekoyashiki Haru smiled and consoled him.

Only after Nekayashiki Haru reached out and rubbed his pink hair did Goto Ichiri barely come back to his senses from trembling.

"... "

Ijichi Hongxia clenched her fists.

Because we have never been able to make the kitten like us, but we take it for granted that the kitten will be with us.

But if the kitten is snatched away by someone else before that...

If the final choice isn't me and Xiao Xiduo...

It wasn't even Liang, but a stranger I didn't know at all.

"!"

Ijichi Hongxia's red pupils contracted violently.

Just thinking about that future... while we're still laughing and playing, a woman from nowhere meets Kitten, develops a connection with her, and finally steals Kitten's heart with an attack that's completely beyond our ability...

Take it to the marriage hall...

And we, who once loved kittens, could only sit below and look at the happy smile of the kitten on the stage.

Just thinking about this future...

She lowered her head slightly and her breathing gradually became faster.

"Ijichi-senpai?"

Kita Ikuyo asked anxiously, frowning.

"What's wrong with you? You don't seem to be right..."

"I am fine."

Ijichi Hongxia took a deep breath, then raised her head and looked at Kita Ikuyo.

He asked after hesitating for a moment.

"…Kita-chan."

"Ok?"

Kita Ikuyo looked at Ijichi Kouka in confusion.

Ijichi Hongxia continued.

"Have we been too lazy at this point?"

"what?"

Kita Ikuyo opened her eyes wide.

"What do you mean?"

"…fine."

Ijichi Hongxia lowered her head.

The red eyes were tightly closed.

It's like he's having some kind of psychological struggle.

Chapter 206: Are We Friends? (Yet)

Tick-tick…tick-tick…tick-tick-tick.

The blind stick swept the ground in front.

Every time it touches the ground, there is a clicking sound.

Yamada Ryo, who had appeared behind him out of nowhere, tried hard to synchronize his footsteps with the sound of his blind stick sweeping the ground.
