Lonely Rock for the Blind.

Hiroi Kikuri, who was being pulled out from the roadside, asked.

"... "

Nekoyashiki Haru turned to face Hiroi Kikuri, and then suddenly reached out and slapped her shoulder hard.

"Whoa! You scared me!"

"You were just... about to tell everyone that I'm the [Poison Cat], weren't you?"

"Nekoyashiki Haru said through gritted teeth."

That's right, he is [Poison Cat].

The legendary "Poison Cat" is said to smoke, drink, and even be rumored to be addicted to drugs.

[Poison Cat] smashes keyboards and equipment on stage, gives the middle finger to the audience, and acts completely arrogantly...

The true identity of the urban legend known as the "Band Hunter" is someone who seeks out musicians from various bands for one-on-one duels, leaving behind symbolic items like picks when defeated.

Even though it's all in the past! But this kind of thing absolutely cannot be known by Hongxia and the others!!!

"Did you understand?! You understand now!! Don't tell them I'm the [Poison Cat]! Otherwise, I'll come to your house in the middle of the night and burn all your alcohol!"

"Nekoyashiki Haru shook Hiroi Kikuri and said."

"Ah! I understand, I understand! Stop shaking me, I'm going to throw up!"

"Don't throw up!"

Nekoyashiki Haru quickly stopped shaking, and Hiroi Kikuri swayed on the ground for a while before regaining her balance.

“I said, it doesn’t really matter, they don’t seem annoying, do they? That pink-haired kid actually likes you, right? She’s your fan.”

"It's different... That's because the distance is far enough that I don't feel any ill will, but if my identity as a [Poison Cat] is exposed, I'll definitely be scolded by Nijika! And Yamada will tease me about it!"

"Is that all? So, is it really necessary for you to be so resistant?"

"Shame, you know? It's like when you wrote a cringeworthy novel in junior high and your classmates found it and passed it around to each other. You understand that kind of terrible thing, right?"

"Nekoyashiki Haru said after she had calmed down."

"Well... I'm just a drunkard, I don't really know much about alcohol, haha..."

Kikuri Hiroi scratched her head and said.

"Ha... Anyway, don't tell anyone. Even if they find out sooner or later... at least let this go on for a while longer..."

Nekoyashiki Haru sighed.

"Speaking of which, your appearance in front of us today was just a coincidence?"

Nekoyashiki Haru continued to ask, and Hiroi Kikuri smiled and replied.

"Half and half, I guess. I originally went to look for you at Fanxing, but my senior said you weren't there, so I just wandered around aimlessly, and then I actually bumped into you guys, lucky~"

"... "

Nekoyashiki suddenly felt a warmth in her heart.

"I'm doing great with Sister Xingge, so don't worry. Tell everyone else not to worry either."

"Oh, I know, I'll tell the others."

"...I'll go and talk to them myself when the time comes..."

Nekoyashiki Haru took out her wallet from her pocket, took out a portion of it, and handed it to Hiroi Kikuri.

"Stop buying all alcohol again. Try to live a healthier life. I'm afraid I won't be able to see you anymore."

"Thank you~ Xiao Qing really likes me the most, haha!"

Hiroi Kikuri smiled and took the money.

"...What nonsense are you spouting, you drunkard?"

Nekoyashiki Haru sighed.

"We have a performance next week, do you want to come?"

Kikuri Hiroi continued.

"I'll come if you need me."

"Nekoyashiki Haru replied."

"hey-hey…"

Hiroi Kikuri chuckled softly, then opened her eyes.

Deep purple eyes, spiraling with profound depth.

"You've changed so much since the first time I met you."

"...Why are you suddenly talking about these things?"

Feeling sentimental?

Hiroi Kikuri walked up to Nekoyashiki Haru, as the surrounding traffic surged past with dazzling lights.

"There are no clouds or stars today, and the night sky is very clear."

"Ah."

Hiroi Kikuri tiptoed and gently rubbed Nekoyashiki Haru's face.

"It seems you're doing very well under your senior's tutelage. How was your reunion with Hongxia?"

"It's not quite what I expected, but it's not too bad."

"That's enough."

Hiroi Kikuri straightened up.

"Then I'll head back now."

Aren't you going home for dinner?

"It seems like Kita and Nijika really dislike me, so I'd better not go and annoy them."

Hiroi Kikuri turned to look at Nekoyashiki Haru, revealing a smile that Nekoyashiki Haru couldn't see.

See you next time!

"Okay, goodbye."

Nekoyashiki Haru nodded.

Listening quietly to the receding footsteps of Hiroi Kikuri, he raised his head and faced the sky.

"A night sky without clouds or stars..."

He pursed his lips and began to imagine.

Such scenes are now a blur in my memory.

So... what he imagined was also distorted.

"If possible, I'd like to see it in person someday."

Nekoyashiki Haru lowered her head and then shook it.

The white cane tapped the ground once more.

I walked towards the restaurant.

...

……

.........

"Ah, Nekoyashiki-senpai, you're finally back?"

The sharp-eyed Kita Ikuyo was the first to spot Nekoyashiki Haru who had returned, and quickly went over to help him to his seat.

"Sorry, it took a little longer than expected."

Nekoyashiki Haru apologized with a smile.

"It wasn't that long. By the way, where's Kiku-senpai?"

"Ichi Niji Natsumi asked."

"I smashed all her shark teeth, she should be contacting a dentist to get them fixed now."

Nekoyashiki Haru smiled.

"You're kidding, right?! You didn't actually hit me, did you?!"

"Ichi Nijika asked urgently."

"Just kidding, just kidding, don't worry about it, she had to go back first."

"In that case, I'll eat her portion."

Yamada Ryo reached out towards the food that Hiroi Kikuri hadn't touched at all.

Snapped!

Then Ichi Nijika slapped my hand.

"You've already eaten a lot, haven't you?! Didn't I just share half with you? Did Little Xiduo share with you too? And Boqi too! Your stomach is huge!"

"Ichi Nijika sighed and said."

"If only you could share half your appetite with the kitten."

Looking at the half-serving fries in front of Nekoyashiki Haru, Ijichi Nigatsu felt a little annoyed.

"I might as well just find a hole in your mouth, stick it in, and then pour all the food in..."

"Ichi Nijika said."

"You raise foie gras, huh..."

Nekoyashiki Haru sighed.

"Foie gras? I want to eat it."
