Lonely Rock for the Blind

Goto Ichiri stopped in front of the group of adults, breathing heavily.

"Hi...Hi...Kita...Tong...Ahem...Classmate is missing...Haaaa..."

"?"

Nekoyashiki Haru tilted her head.

...

……

.........

"No...no...I can't do this anymore...Kita-kun...I'm too tired..."

Goto Ichiri, who was being dragged around, panted and said to Kita Ikuyo who was holding a selfie stick.

"We've only just begun, Goto-kun, your stamina is really too low, isn't it?"

"Sorry...but I really can't do it anymore...huh..."

"Ugh…"

Kita Ikuyo sighed regretfully, and Goto Ichiri slumped on the bench with his eyes closed as if he was dead.

"…Ugh…"

Kita Ikuyo sighed again, and suddenly, a green light appeared in the corner of her eye.

"?"

Looking towards the woods behind the bench, clusters of lights dancing in the woods circled together in the air.

"firefly?"

Kita Ikuyo was stunned for a moment, and a simple formula appeared in her mind.

Kita Ikuyo took a guitar to take a photo with the fireflies.

Kita Ikuyo uploaded photos to her social account.

Kita Ikuyo received thousands of likes and gained hundreds of fans.

Ok, the answer is obtained.

Take photos with fireflies!

Kita Ikuyo originally wanted to call Goto Ichiri to join her, but when she found that Goto Ichiri really looked like he was about to die, she finally gave up the idea.

Crossing the bench, Kita Ikuyo quietly approached the fireflies.

It looks close, but it's actually quite far away.

After going a little deeper, Kita Ikuyo finally found a good position, and the fireflies didn't run away.

Kita Ikuyo squatted down, then raised the selfie stick, smiled, and made a "yeah" gesture with her hands at the side of her face.

then…

Just as Kita Ikuyo was about to capture this rare scene, intense guitar music suddenly rang out.

The green ball of light instantly dispersed, the fireflies flew away suddenly, and Kita Ikuyo's smile froze on her face.

"?"

She stood up, turned around in confusion, and then saw a punk-dressed woman walking towards her, dragging two speakers behind her.

"... "

Seeing that it was someone she didn't know, Kita Ikuyo quietly suppressed the resentment in her heart.

“Um, you are…?”

"I'm here to see you!"

Zheng?!!!

The woman suddenly started playing the guitar, and the high notes coming from the speakers startled Kita Ikuyo.

“…Looking for me?”

Kita Ikuyo was stunned for a moment.

"Well... let me introduce myself first. My name is Kita. It doesn't matter what you call me, just Kita. How should I address you?"

"You can call me anything!"

Boom!

The speaker was placed on the ground, and the woman's eyes were shining.

"I have long since abandoned my name!"

"?"

"In order to avenge that guy, no name is necessary!"

“…I think your parents will be sad…”

"If you must call me that, call me the Ghost of Vengeance!"

"I don't understand what you mean at all!"

Kita Ikuyo sighed and prepared to go back towards the temple fair.

"I'm going back now, sorry."

"Wait a moment!"

The woman stopped Kita Ikuyo.

"Even if you want revenge, you shouldn't look for me... I don't even know you."

Kita Ikuyo turned to look at the woman speechlessly.

The woman just shook her head and pointed at Kita Ikuyo's neck.

"That thing! It's the real thing, right?"

"?!"

Kita Ikuyo was startled, then subconsciously tightened the pick around her neck.

“I bought it!”

"That's the real deal. I'll never forget having been defeated by him dozens of times!"

Kita Ikuyo suddenly opened her eyes wide.

So... you're here to cause trouble for [Band Hunter], no, senior?

"You know that guy, right?"

clank?!

The aggressive guitar sound sounded again.

"He finally showed up! Do you know how I spent the past few months when he disappeared?! I didn't even watch anime!"

"...So you're just watching anime now?"

Kita Ikuyo became even more determined not to touch anime in the future.

"Don't worry about it! Call that guy over here!"

"I won't scream!"

"Why?!"

"Because you want to cause trouble for Senior, right?!"

"senior?"

The woman was stunned for a moment, then asked.

"Who are you to him?"

"Ugh?"

Kita Ikuyo was also stunned for a moment.

"Ah...um...this...that is...senpai..."

Kita Ikuyo was struggling on the spot, and finally raised her head and shouted.

“I am his disciple!!!”

"disciple?!"

The woman was stunned.

"You're actually accepting disciples? Forget about that! Let's duel!"

"what?"

"You are her disciple, aren't you? If you don't want me to cause him any trouble, then come and defeat me!"

The woman pointed at the guitar that Kita Ikuyo was carrying behind her.

"Just duel with guitars!!!"

...

……

.........

"Maybe he just ran over to someone's spot to take a picture?"

Hiroi Kikuri guessed.

"It... shouldn't be. If that were the case, Kita-san should have told me."

Goto Ichiri straightened up, finally catching her breath.

"I think we should go look for it!"

"... "

The adults in the group looked at each other except for the one who couldn't see.

"Let's go and look for it."

"Kiri, come too. Call Hongxia and Liang as well."

"Qing, you stay here alone."

"... "

Nekoyashiki Haru listened to the footsteps of the people around him gradually moving away.

Raise your head slightly.

"...Kita..."

Chapter 71 Duel (Chapter 9)

“…I’m not interested…”

Kita Ikuyo narrowed her eyes and didn't intend to pay any attention to this strange woman.

It’s better to go find the seniors as soon as possible.

"Huh? Are you scared? He hasn't appeared for so long, so he's afraid. Even the disciples he taught are so timid."

"... "

Kita Ikuyo suddenly stopped and turned to look at the woman.

“…That’s not the case…”

"what?"

"Senior is not afraid!"

Kita Ikuyo turned to face the woman and spoke sternly.
