Lonely Rock for the Blind.

Hiroi Kikuri remained silent.

Even if you hate me the most... I still like you, Kiku.

"...What exactly are you...?"

Kikuri Hiroi's voice trembled.

"I love the way you stand on stage for your dream even though you're scared. I love how you notice when others are acting strangely and show concern. I love how you don't pay back your debts. I love how you beg to borrow money. I love how you ask to use my bathroom. I love how you bicker with Shima. I love how you bother Haru. I love how you act crazy after you drink. I love how you're weak and cute when you're sober. I love how brave you are now to keep me away from Haru... I love you, Kikuri."

"... "

Hiroi Kikuri lowered her head.

"...I'll fight you for as long as you want, I'll fight you as hard as you want...but please believe me one more time...Kikuri."

Eliza slowly lowered her hand, raised her other hand, and tried her best to hug Hiroi Kikuri.

"... "

Hiroi Kikuri's body trembled slightly.

A touch of warmth arrived at that moment.

"I know I was wrong... Everything I did was wrong... I hurt you, I hurt everyone... So please forgive me, Kikuri."

"... "

Hiroi Kikuri slowly covered her forehead with her hand, breathing softly.

"...Haa..."

“…Kikuri…”

"...That's enough..."

Hiroi Kikuri gently pushed Eliza away from her embrace.

Spread your arms out and lie down on the ground.

boom!

Water splashed up.

Hiroi Kikuri lay on the ground, looking at the gray rain clouds.

Raindrops pattered against Kikuri Hiroi's cheeks.

"...Thank you...Kikuri..."

Eliza's body relaxed.

"...Do as you please...you can't find him anyway..."

Kikuto Hiroi said softly.

"Xiao Qing...where did you go?"

Eliza slowly got up and asked softly.

"...I don't know. I'm just here to have him taken away. How would I know where he'll be taken?"

"... "

"...Get lost, I get annoyed just looking at you..."

Eliza nodded slowly.

"Um…"

Then, he walked forward with his body bent over.

I feel dizzy... everything I'm seeing is double...

Did Xiaojuli damage his head?

Eliza was thinking.

Behind them, Kikumi Hiroi's voice suddenly rang out again.

"If you can't find him, if you haven't been forgiven... don't ever show your face in front of me again, Eliza."

"... "

Eliza paused for a moment.

Did Shima say this to me too?

Ah... I don't think I answered back then?

So now... what's the answer?

Eliza slowly straightened her back.

"...I'll stay...I'll stay no matter what!"

Then, he said this.

"…cheeky…"

Hiroi Kikuri closed her eyes.

"…Um…"

Eliza responded softly and continued walking forward.

Chapter 448 Searching

"Do you want to go to my house? Or yours?"

Daikoku Otoko was holding Nekoyashiki Haru's hand.

"...Aren't you going to ask what happened?"

Nekoyashiki Haru looked at Daikoku Otomi and asked.

"Kikuri doesn't seem to want me to ask. Will you tell me, darling?"

"I ask with a smile," said Dahei Yin.

"...Never mind."

Nekoyashiki Haru shook her head.

What if I absolutely must know?

Dahei Yin pressed for an answer.

“…Then, I will say it.”

Nekoyashiki Haru turned around and said.

"...I see...I think I won't ask anymore."

Daikoku Oto shrugged, then pulled Nekoyashiki Haru along the street.

"You still haven't told me where you're going?"

"... "

Nekoyashiki Haru remained silent for a while.

He then spoke.

“I’ll give you the address…drop me off there, then you can go home first.”

"Hmm? But I'm worried about you."

"It's okay, I'll be fine."

Nekoyashiki Haru said calmly.

“It’s just that someone came looking for me… If Kikuri hadn’t stopped her, I wouldn’t have needed to hide.”

"...How did she find you? Should I tell Kikuri now?"

Dahei Yin tilted his head and asked.

"No, if you can't find me, then it's better not to meet at all, isn't it?"

Nekoyashiki Haru smiled and said.

"...Okay, sure."

Daikoku nods slightly.

...

……

.........

"Haa...haa..."

Dizziness...

My cheeks feel hot...

Leaning against the door of [Starry Sky], Eliza pushed the door open forcefully.

"Ok?"

Ijichi Hoshika, who was drinking juice, paused for a moment, then turned to look at Eliza.

"Eliza? What are you doing back? Wait?! What happened to your face?!"

Ichi Hoshika blinked.

"You apologized to Qing? He beat you up like this?!"

"Ichi Hoshika is shocked," Ichi Hoshika exclaimed.

"...No...it was Xiaoju who hit him..."

"Huh?!"

Ijichi Seika's eyes widened even more.

Eliza shook her head and spoke to herself.
