Whoofta. One crazy chapter.
Basically Kasame finds Killer Bee and Sakura announces that she loves him but Naruto notices something's wrong and goes and says "I have people who lie to themselfs." Why is Sakura lying? Is she lying?
Still no sign of the Tsubasa gang, or any hinting of the egg's ability, but here are some translations. I am quite disturbed by the theme of this particular chappie.......
ah well.... Click the link below !!

P.1
side text: The one who appears in front of the new owner Watanuki, is the new client
Watanuki: This Sanxian...the problem is within it, right?
P.2
side text: Watanuki can already have a clue on the woman's instrument. The shop which grant wishes, how will this new shopowner handle?
Woman: Right, Perhaps I might as well say that it isstill alive, it would be more appropriate to say that.
Do you know what the outer skin of this Sanxian is made of?
Watanuki: Cat, right?
P.3
Woman: Yes, the part being used is cat's abdomen.
However, as the price of cat's skin is very high, recently it isn't being used much. So now most are made by dog's skin instead.
But for Tsugaru Sanxian,because of the necessary condition that it is used for playing spirited rhythm, dog skin is more preferred.
For other Sanxian, most performers reflected that the ones made by cat's skin produce better sound effects.
P.4
Woman: It's generally agreed that it's better to use the female cat to make the outer skin of the Sanxian
Beautiful cats, which have perfect skin texture without any scars.
Watanuki: It was once a beautiful kitten...
Sound: Biin
P.5
Woman: I am so pleased. It looks like this kid likes you.
Watanuki: That would be great
Woman: It's true, you know.
It was always a good kid, always brought me exquisite and pleasing melodies, but starting from 10 days ago, it suddenly went into silence.
From how it responsed to me just now, it's the right choice for me to bring it to this shop, just as expected.
P.6
Sound:Biin
P.7
Woman: Oh--
Watanuki: Just as expected.
Do you know the reason why this kid fell into silence?
Woman: Of course.
This kid become Sanxian when it's still young, that's why it wants to meet...the one it loves
P.8
glance
Doumeki: What's happened?
Watanuki:It's said that the cat used for making Sanxian should have least scars on it as possible. Then the cat before it mates would be ideal.
P.9
Doumeki: Because it would be hurt during intercourse with male cats?
Watanuki: Don't say it in such a calm manner.
Doumeki: Then is it better to say in high spirits?
Watanuki: That's even worse.
Actually, it would not make any sounds, right? That Sanxian.
P.10
Watanuki: After that time, it hasn't make a sound..Ah..
Only when it meets the one that it would make sounds..the one it loves
P.11
Watanuki: The Cat's lover,
Doumeki: Instinctively, that should be a cat, right?
Watanuki: About that, it would be the fastest to ask it directly
P.12
Watanuki: In Dream
side text: Want to meet the one it loves... Although it has changed to the form of instrument, it still has this one hope! In the cat's dream, What will Watanuki see?!
Notes: Sanxian is an musical instrument with three strings, there are the chinese type and the japanese type.
Hello, Any one read chinese? Or just like
to look at pictures? Then you are in luck, because I found a link to the newest chapter of XXX Holic in Chinese XD

Basically, Watanuki scares maru and moro and gives them a hug, and the looks pensive, meets a customer (NOT THE TSUBASA GANG! WHY!!!!T______T), and she shows him an instrument. I thought for sure by the package that it was an oar with which he could travel the river Stix and find Yuuko. Ah well. Enjoy!
