Lonely Rock for the Blind

Page 16

Goto Ichiri nodded in response.

"Come out, don't be in the trash can."

Nekoyashiki Haru smiled.

"Goto-kun does have a lot of personality, but it's best to save it for when the time is right."

"Goto-kun!!! Why not Pochi?!"

Goto Ichiri said in shock.

"I always feel that calling you by a nickname is not good. Does it feel too unfamiliar? Then I'll call you Yili."

Nekoyashiki Haru smiled.

"Okay, okay, let's go."

"Ah... yes... yes, I understand..."

Chapter 14: Working

pat.

Nekoyashiki Haru's blind stick tapped gently around him, while Kita Ikuyo and Goto Ichiri behind him watched the scene together.

Kita Ikuyo took a small step forward.

If Nekoyashiki Haru was about to hit something, she could stop it in time.

However, without letting Kita Ikuyo play a role, Nekayashiki Haru found the location of the beverage machine by touch.

He took down the paper cup that was placed in a fixed position next to it and placed it at the beverage outlet.

drop--

He fumbled to find the button on the machine, and the hot coffee flowed out. He silently counted the time until the cup was full, and Nekoyashiki Haru released his fingers in time.

Picking up the coffee, Nekayashiki Haru handed it to someone who probably belonged to Kita Ikuyo and Goto Ichiri.

"Want a cup of coffee?"

“Ah! I…I…I…”

Goto Ichiri began to organize his words in a panic, while Kita Ikuyo on the other side had already stepped forward to take the coffee.

"Thank you, senior."

Kita Ikuyo said this with a smile and took a sip.

“It tastes great.”

With a bright smile, Kita Ikuyo praised.

"Really? Really? Thank you for the compliment."

Nekoyashiki Haru nodded as if a little proudly.

"Very impressive! Great...skills!"

Goto Ichiri suddenly stepped forward and said, Nekayashiki Haru was slightly stunned, then nodded.

"Thank you for the compliment, Ichiri."

"Hey hey hey..."

"So it came from a beverage machine. It's weird that you're praising the taste..."

Ijichi Hongxia, who was watching this scene from the side, was speechless, and Yamada Ryo came over.

"Jealous?"

"...Ryo, you've become even more annoying these past few days than before."

Yamada Ryo was stunned for a moment, then his cheeks turned slightly red and he stroked his cheeks with his hands.

"shy…"

"Why are you being shy? Am I praising you?"

Ijichi Hongxia raised her little fist and finally pressed it lightly on Yamada Ryo's shoulder.

"Komako and I are just friends. At most, we're childhood sweethearts, so we have a better relationship. I won't be jealous just because he's close to other people. I'm not a child anymore."

Ijichi Hongxia explained, while Yamada Ryo beside her narrowed his eyes slightly as he listened to the explanation.

"Yeah…"

On the other side, Nekayashiki Haru demonstrated other operations such as how to receive cocktails to Kita Ikuyo and Goto Ichiri, which won cheers again. Of course, it was mainly Kita Ikuyo who cheered, while Goto Ichiri was still shy and his voice was as soft as a mosquito.

"I think they all are."

"I got it, Senior. You taught me very well!"

"...your endless praise always makes me feel like you're just coaxing a child."

...

……

.........

Time passed quickly, and after everyone became familiar with what they were supposed to do, it was time for [Stars] to open.

"Hello, which band are you here to see today?"

Kita Ikuyo, wearing a maid outfit, smiled and handed a flyer to the customer in front of her.

"Ah, your drink... please take it."

Goto Ichiri beside him quietly handed the drink to the counter, then quickly shrank under the counter.

"Okay, Yili, come out. There's nothing to be afraid of. It's very rude to treat guests like this."

Ijichi Hongxia squatted down helplessly after watching this scene and pulled Goto Ichiri up.

“I’m so sorry, so sorry, so sorry, so sorry…”

Goto Ichiri, who was pulled up, immediately bowed and apologized to the customer in front of the counter, and stopped only after receiving the other party's reply of "It's okay, it's okay."

Ijichi Hongxia walked out from the bar.

"I have other things to do over there. Kita-san, please keep an eye on Ichiri and don't let her shrink down any more."

"Yes! Leave it to me, Ijichi-senpai."

Ijichi Hongka hummed a little tune and walked to the other side, and not long after she left, Nekayashiki Haru came over.

"Nekoyashiki-senpai?"

"Let me stay here for a while..."

Nekoyashiki Haru sighed.

"I'm not familiar with the tuning area yet, and Yamada-san is already at the ticket counter. The manager thought I was in the way and told me to find a place to rest."

Nekoyashiki Haru leaned against the wall next to the bar.

"I shouldn't be in the way, right?"

"No, it seems most of the guests have already arrived."

Kita Ikuyo said with a smile, then took out a cup.

"Would you like something to drink, Nekayashiki-senpai?"

"No... I've had enough to drink today... energy drinks, I'm not even sleepy anymore."

Kita Ikuyo blinked.

“Why did you buy so many energy drinks?”

"!"

Goto Ichiri next to him trembled violently, and this abnormality also attracted Kita Ikuyo's attention.

"Goto-san?"

"No, no, no, no, I didn't ask Hongxia to buy it! I definitely didn't ask Hongxia to buy it because I wanted them to act like partygoers, drinking energy drinks and dancing, so as to attract Kita-san to join the band!"

“…what do energy drinks have to do with partying…”

Nekoyashiki Haru asked doubtfully.

"Why do you think this can attract me?!"

Kita Ikuyo tilted his head and said.

"Because... because Kita-san is a real person... that is... she must be like this on weekdays... on weekends she goes to the dance hall with her friends, sings all night at karaoke, and buys energy drinks by the box so she can be high all day and all night until Monday..."

“What a stereotype!”

"Then you don't want to go to KTV?"

"Oh? No... I'll still go..."

"As expected..."

"What about the others?! Why didn't you ask if we were going to the dance hall?! I'm not a party animal! And if I stayed up all day and all night doing this, I would have died!"

Kita Ikuyo explained to Goto Ichiri.

"Listen up, Goto-kun. I do like going out and posting on Instagram, but I'm definitely not that weird, non-human creature you stereotype me as!"

"I...I'm not human either..."

"I didn't say anything about you! What are you thinking about now?"

"Pfft..."

Nekayashiki Haru laughed softly. Kita Ikuyo and Goto Ichiri were both stunned for a moment, then looked at Nekayashiki Haru.

However, Nekayashiki Haru did not feel that anyone was watching him. Noticing that the two people's voices had disappeared, he couldn't help but tilt his head in confusion and look towards where the two people should be.

"what happened?"

"No, Senior, it's okay."

Kita Ikuyo chuckled.

Nekayashiki Haru was stunned for a moment and was about to say something when the performance on the stage reached its climax.

“Get high!!!!”

The person on the stage, who was probably the lead singer, suddenly knelt on the ground, straightened his upper body and started playing a guitar solo.

"Ah... so energetic..."

Nekoyashiki Haru said softly.

“It has a rock and roll feel.”

Kita Ikuyo continued with a smile.

Goto Ichiri stared blankly at the performance on the stage.

When can I do this?

Chapter 15 Join

“So tired…”

Ijichi Nijika, who was stretching beside Nekoyashiki Haru, breathed a sigh of relief.

The band has finished playing today, most of the guests have left, and a few people have just cleaned up the place.

Kita Ikuyo looked at the people in front of her with a smile, then walked towards the gate.
