"Hmm." Kato Megumi stood up. Her feet were a little numb. She stepped on the cobblestones in her wooden clogs and stepped lightly a few times before she felt a little more comfortable.
"Let's go back."
……
With things in their hands, they naturally couldn't cross the colorful bridge, so the two of them took a detour back to Kato Megumi's house.
"Hmm? Hui, where is your fan?" Yushan Kazuto suddenly discovered that the round fan that had been hanging around Kato Hui's waist was missing.
"Huh? It's really gone." Kato Megumi looked down and found that the round fan on her waist had disappeared.
"Before falling asleep, you seemed to be fanning yourself with a fan. Did it drop there?" asked Yushan Kazuto.
"It's possible." Kato Megumi blinked. She couldn't remember clearly.
"I'll help you get it back." Yushan Heren said.
"No need, Kazuto, it's just a round fan." Kato Megumi shook her head.
"I like the pattern on that round fan." Yushan Kazuto smiled.
"Then I'll go with you." Kato Megumi put down her things and said.
"No, Hui, it's not very convenient for you to wear a yukata."
Yushan and others waved and ran out.
……
"Editor Yuanzi, it's so late, do we really have to walk across the colorful bridge?"
There were not many people left on the Fukagawa Riverbank, and Kasumigaoka Utaha was pulled by Machida Sonoko to the colorful bridge.
"If we don't walk across the colorful bridge once, I'll always feel that this Tanabata Festival will not be complete." Machida Sonoko said with a smile.
Looking at the colorful bridge made of bamboo boards and short wood in front of her, for some reason, Kasumigaoka Shi** thought of a game called "Bridge Engineer". She felt that her life would be threatened at any time.
"Editor Yuanzi, I think my Tanabata party was quite successful. If you want to leave, please go by yourself." Kasumigaoka Utaha took a half step back.
"Are you serious about taking a half step back? Such a small movement can cause so much damage."
Machida Sonoko's sudden lyrical look made Kasumigaoka Utaha feel a little chilly.
"Editor Yuanzi, I'll wait here for you to come back." Kasumigaoka Utaha looked as if she had made up her mind and would not compromise.
"Shi-chan, if you accompany me across this colorful bridge, I won't ask for your manuscript for a week!" Machida Sonoko said with a smile.
"What are you waiting for?"
……
Walking onto the colorful bridge, Kasumigaoka Utaha felt as if she was walking on thin ice. The arrogant belief that she had just shown in order to get away with something disappeared in an instant, and she looked timid and submissive.
The colorful bridge was shaking, and Kasumigaoka Utaha felt dizzy. A gentle breeze blew, but it made the people on the bridge tremble with fear.
"Or, let's get off the bridge." Kasumigaoka Utaha began to back out.
"No, it's only about ten meters. Just walk over there."
Machida Sonoko was also a little nervous, but after seeing Kasumigaoka Utaha's performance, she felt that she should pluck up her courage and cheer for Kasumigaoka Utaha.
Kasumigaoka Utaha's appearance at this moment is very much like those people who were forced onto the glass plank road, feeling that life is not worth it and that life is worse than death.
"Ah, Shi-chan, don't close your eyes!"
"Shi-chan, be careful, don't go to the left!"
"Hey, hey, hey, Shi-chan, step more lightly!"
Machida Sonoko was yelling the whole time, but Kasumigaoka Utaha was unusually quiet. It wasn't that she had overcome her fear, but that she was so scared that she couldn't speak.
……
"Shi-chan...", "Shi-chan..." the exclamations rang in Yushan Kazuto's ears.
[What's this sound coming from? Over there on the colorful bridge?]
Yushan Heren picked up the fan and frowned. The sound that reached Yushan Heren's ears was not loud, and he could not hear it clearly, and could only roughly distinguish the direction of the sound.
[Could it be that someone fell into the water? ”]
After thinking about it, Yushan Heren decided to go over and take a look at the situation. When the Tanabata Festival was held, there were special lifeguards guarding the colorful bridge, but now that the Tanabata Festival was over, the staff naturally went off work.
Yushan and others ran over and saw Kasumigaoka Utaha who was moving like a snail on the colorful bridge with her eyes closed.
[Kasumigaoka Utaha, why... why is she here? 】
Yushan Kazuto turned around and wanted to leave, but suddenly, Machida Yuanzi shouted an earth-shattering cry: "Shi-chan!"
At the end of the colorful bridge, Kasumigaoka Utaha was clinging to the bridge with both hands, struggling hard.
However, her struggle was in vain. The colorful bridge was shaking and there was no support at all. Machida Sonoko was on the colorful bridge and wanted to pull her up, but it was of no avail.
Even though they were less than two meters away from the river bank, Kasumigaoka Utaha did not dare to let go. At the Fukagawa river beach, the river suddenly changed its course and the water flow became more turbulent.
It’s not that Kasumigaoka Utaha can’t swim, but she doesn’t dare to risk her swimming ability, so she can only hang on to the colorful bridge with all her might.
Yushan Heren blinked. There was no one else around, so he had to take care of it even if he didn't want to.
[I just broke the school's 50-meter record in swimming class on Thursday, so this current shouldn't be a problem. Well, I also held the original record myself.]
Yushan Heren took off his shoes, rolled up his trouser legs, and jumped into the river.
[Why is it so shallow? Is this Fukagawa? ]
Yushan and others stood up in the river, the water just reaching his thighs. However, the river was too fast, and many people probably couldn't stand steadily.
"Yes, it's you!" When she saw Yushan Kazuto, Machida Sonoko felt like she had seen a savior.
Yushan Kazuto embraced Kasumigaoka Utaha: "Let go, I'll catch you."
[This voice is so familiar. ]
Kasumigaoka Utaha's mind suddenly went blank.
[Is it him? Or is it just someone with a similar voice. ]
Kasumigaoka Utaha loosened her hands and fell into the arms of Hayama Kazuto.
[Wow, what a solid chest. It would be nice if it was him.]
Kasumigaoka Utaha was very close to me, and suddenly I felt a sense of attachment to her.
Yushan Heren held her and walked step by step to the river bank.
[Is it really him? ]
Kasumigaoka Utaha didn't dare to open her eyes. For some reason, she was looking forward to seeing Hayama Kazuto the first moment she opened her eyes, but she was also afraid that it was Hayama Kazuto who saved her.
[Editor Yuanzi knows him, so it must be him. ]
Kasumigaoka Utaha remembered the shout that Machida Sonoko had just made.
[No, that's not right. Editor Yuanzi has lived here for a long time. It's possible that the person she knew was someone else...]
Kasumigaoka Utaha hurriedly denied her previous guess.
"Hey, we're already on shore. How long are you going to hang on to me? My neck is almost broken. Don't you have a correct understanding of your potential energy?"
Hearing this familiar voice, Kasumigaoka Utaha opened her eyes, her wine-red eyes filled with tears, but she didn't know whether it was out of fear or excitement.
【Sure enough, it’s him! 】
Chapter 169: Kirisu-sensei accidentally enters the men's locker room
"Kazuto, why are you wet? Aren't you cold?" Kato Megumi said worriedly as she looked at Kazuto Yuyama who was soaked all over.
"It's not cold, it's not cold. When I went to look for the fan, I saw a man almost falling off the colorful bridge, so I jumped into the water to save him."
"But...isn't the river there very shallow?"
"Well, the water level just reached my thighs. I only realized that after I got into the river. The waves are fast and you can't tell how deep the water is by standing on the shore." Yushan Heren said somewhat embarrassedly.
"Kazuto, the person who fell into the water you were talking about, could it be you?" Kato Megumi suddenly said doubtfully.
"Of course not!"
"Come in and take a shower." Kato Megumi thought for a moment and made way for him.
"No, no need. I'll just go back to the apartment and take a shower. There's 24-hour hot water in the apartment." Yushan and others ran back to the apartment.
……
"Swimming test?"
After hearing the news that Kirisu Madoka had just announced, the students were immediately outraged.
"Teacher, can I bring a swimming ring to the exam?"
"Teacher, are there lifeguards for the swimming test?"
"Teacher, if someone drowns during an exam, does that count as suicide due to excessive stress from studying?"
"Teacher, we are from the countryside. There is no such thing as a swimming pool in the countryside!"
……
"Okay, everyone, be quiet!" Kirisu Madoka's voice is always particularly intimidating, and the students were instantly silent.
"First of all, swimming classes have been offered for more than a month. As the end of the semester is approaching, it is normal to conduct a swimming test to test everyone's learning outcomes."
"Secondly, there will be no punishment or record if you fail the test, so you can rest assured!"
"The main purpose of this swimming test is to test the students' swimming skills so that we can select the destination for the school trip next semester."
"If students' swimming skills are poor, the school will try to avoid places near the sea."
“Therefore, although this swimming test is not included in the grades, it is closely related to the students’ school trip. I hope that the students will do their best and don’t take it lightly!”
……
"Hayama-san."
"Mr. Miyagi, is there anything I can help you with?" Looking at Miyagi Shun, who was dressed in a formal suit, shiny leather shoes, and had his hair combed back, Yushan Kazuto felt as if some trouble was about to happen to him.
"Mr. Yushan, you don't have to take the swimming test this time. I will give you full marks!" Miyagi Shun said in a low voice.
Yushan Kazuto blinked, not expecting such a pleasant surprise, he opened it and started to put on his clothes.
"Wait a moment, wait a moment." Miyagi Shun stopped Yushan Kazuto's movements, "I still have something to say!"
"Is there anything else?" Yushan Kazuto looked at Miyagi Shun with a careful and cautious look.
"Well, um, teacher, I'm going to participate in a one-on-one random blind date event... Look at me, my clothes and hairstyle are all ready. Can you help me supervise the swimming test today?"
"..."
Yushan and Ren were silent for a while.
"If my blind date is successful, I will definitely be very grateful to you!"
"Teacher, can I give full marks to all the students?" asked Yushan Kazuto.
"Of course not! You are responsible for the safety of your classmates!"
……
There are eight swimming lanes in the swimming pool, three for men and three for women, with the two in the middle used as separators and a dividing board erected.
Yushan and Ren are naturally in charge of the boys' area.
The test method is very simple and the difficulty is also low. You can choose one of the 100-meter freestyle, butterfly stroke, breaststroke, or backstroke, plus one underwater breath holding event.
As long as the swimming time is no more than 60 seconds and the breath-holding time is greater than 120 seconds, full marks will be given. In other cases, points will be given according to the scoring table.
"Kanda River, freestyle 61 seconds, full score for breath holding, total score 44."
"Takashi Mogi, butterfly stroke 55 seconds, breath holding 94 seconds, total score 116."
……
"Katsura Harutarou, freestyle 91 seconds, breath holding 05 seconds, total score 67."
"Aki Tomoya, breaststroke not completed, breath held for 2 seconds, total score 13."
Seeing Tomoya Aki's grades, the other students turned their eyes to him. If they couldn't go to the beach in the end, it would definitely be Tomoya Aki who would be blamed.
