The blue sea, my youth

After returning from Akihabara, a few days later, Takaharu was dragged by Kohei and the seniors to sort out the diving equipment as soon as he arrived at the diving shop this morning.

Because Iori said he was going to pick up two people and left the diving shop early, Takaharu was unable to drag another person to share the burden.

After sorting out the equipment, Kohei, who was in urgent need of a rest, went to open the door first, and Takaharu and the seniors, who still had some energy, walked slowly behind.

Kohei, who was walking in front, was lying at the door stealthily, and the three people who didn't know what he was doing asked him directly.

Senior Tokita: "Kohei, what's wrong?" Senior Shou: "Aren't you going in?" Takaharu: "Why are you staying at the door?"

"No, I always feel that--" Kohei looked at the situation in the store, "It seems that it's not convenient to go in."

"?" ×3

The three people who didn't know what was going on opened the door directly and found that Iori had already picked up the person.

"Uh--Let me introduce again, this is my part-time job..." Iori saw Takaharu and the seniors coming in, and introduced the two newcomers.

They are Otoya Shanghai, who looks relatively young and has a hairstyle similar to Chisa, "I am Otoya, please give me your advice."

And Busujima Sakurako, who looks relatively mature and has a bun on the side, "This is my first time diving in my life, please take care of me."

However, Takaharu found that Busujima obviously recognized Kouhei after seeing him, and then hid behind Iori.

Then they were seen mumbling something there, and they looked at Kouhei who was frightened by the stranger.

It's strange that Kouhei, who had no psychological burden to interact with the coffee shop a few days ago, trembled this time just because there were two strangers in the store.

Aina opened her dead fish eyes and looked at Iori and Busujima who were whispering. After a while, Kouhei, who accepted the existence of two strangers, came over, "Makeup Corpse Beast, what's wrong?"

Aina did not refute, but said: "Nothing, I just think they have a good relationship."

While Aina and Kouhei were discussing, Takaharu was talking to Akemi about them behind them.

Takaharu: "You said Yoshihara liked Iori because Iori wore women's clothes at the Izu Spring Festival last time?"

Akira: "Yes, I noticed it last time when she knew that Kitahara and Chisa were not cousins. Later, I went back to ask her, and she said that it was because Kitahara stood up for her, just like the scene in a youth movie, so she had a good impression of Kitahara."

After listening, Takaharu said: "I am more optimistic about Yoshihara and Kohei. Yoshihara confessed to Kohei at the beginning, and later Kohei also came on the stage with his reputation to lead Iori. You also saw that Kohei would be afraid when facing two strangers, and Kohei often came to Yoshihara's vicinity unconsciously.

Think about it, when Mihashi, Ito and I helped you, wasn't it Mihashi who paid the most, but in the end it wasn't Ito and I who succeeded. Just wait and see, I think Yoshihara will end up with Kohei."

Akira looked at Iori, then looked at Mana and Kohei, and nodded in agreement.

After Nanaka and the others saw that they were already familiar with each other, they came over and said, "Let's go change into swimsuits."

Amei and Takaharu stopped discussing who Aina would end up with. After agreeing, they stood up and changed into diving suits in advance.

After Takaharu changed his clothes, he heard Iori and Otoya discussing diving in Palau as soon as he came out of the locker room. Chisa, who was standing next to him, was eager to try with two Palau brochures in her hands.

Then Iori said, "But I have to improve my diving skills further."

Otoya: "Are you going to take the advanced certificate?"

"It will take at least two days." Chisa turned around and asked Otoya, "When is the best diving season in Palau?"

Otoya: "In addition to diving, snorkeling is also good."

But before Iori could reply, he was called away by Busujima who had just come out.

After hearing about the advanced diving certificate exam, Guizhi was a little tempted. It seemed that he could take the advanced diving certificate in advance, and then he could show off in front of those two scums.

Guizhi, who was deep in thought, didn't notice Mingmei coming out. Seeing Guizhi standing there in silence and daze, Mingmei slowly walked to his side.

Guizhi felt that the light around him had changed. He looked up and found that it was Mingmei standing in front of him.

Mingmei saw that Guizhi had come back to his senses and asked: "What's wrong? What are you thinking about so fascinatedly?"

Guizhi: "Mingmei, let's take the advanced diving certificate exam when we have time?"

"Although I don't know why you suddenly mentioned this," Mingmei thought for a while, "it's still interesting to take an advanced exam. The question is where to take it?"

Guizhi: "I haven't thought about it yet,How about going to Okinawa? After all, I took the diving certificate there last time."

"Okay," Mingmei also wanted to travel with Takaharu, "By the way, why hasn't Aina come out yet?"

Takaharu also realized, "Kohei is not here either. It's not possible that they can just say that they might be together, right?"

Although they didn't really believe it would work, the two of them still went to look for it, and then found Kohei and his partner hiding in the house.

Before Mingmei was about to go in directly, Takaharu stopped her, "Wait, listen to what they are saying?"

The two of them peeked through the crack in the door, and saw Aina shyly said, "Well, Kohei, for the first time, I only want to show Kohei..."

Aina pulled the zipper of her diving suit down from the back, and after seeing that she was wearing clothes inside, the two who were about to stop looking continued to look.

After taking off the upper body of the diving suit, Aina's tone gave people a very shy feeling, "How about this new sun protection clothing I bought? ”

Kohei, who had no expectations to begin with, was even more speechless, “I don’t care from the bottom of my heart.”

Aina: “I’m the first one to show it to you, so at least you can be moved!”

Kohei: “Don’t force it!! It would be fine if it had a lesbian pattern!!”

Outside the door, the two people who were peeking had no choice but to retreat. Takaharu: “I suddenly feel that I saw the wrong two people, they may not be able to succeed…”

Amei: “I think it’s not right, their brain circuits are extraordinary…”

…Beachside…

The diving equipment that Takaharu and his friends had prepared just now was piled up on the side.

“Well, usually we dive in pairs,” Nanaka explained the rules of diving because there were new people coming to experience it this time, “so please form a team. ”

Takaharu and Akemi stood together as usual. After Nanaka introduced them, she waved to Dokushima, who was diving for the first time, "Miss Sakurako, join me in the team——"

After the groups were divided, they started diving. In the water, Otsuya was indeed an experienced person. He not only moved back and forth, but was also very good at discovering seasonal fish.

After landing, Senior Tokita couldn't help but sigh: "It's amazing. A high school student has this level."

Iori: "What do you mean?"

Senior Kotobuki: "His diving skills." Senior Tokita: "It's close to the level of an instructor."

Iori: "That is to say——" Akemi: "Buoyancy control is very good?" Kohei: "Low oxygen consumption?" Takaharu: "Familiar with marine life?"

Senior Kotobuki: "These are of course excellent." Senior Tokita: "The most admirable thing is that 'every move he makes is for everyone to have fun. ' ”

Iori was a little confused, Takaharu had some guesses but was not sure, and they all looked at the seniors curiously.

Senior Shou: "If someone is too far away, he will swim over to prevent them from falling behind." Senior Tokita: "And as Takaharu said just now, he can notice the fish that are unique to this season." Senior Shou: "But he can lead the fish to our side without making a sound." Senior Tokita: "I guess he has been taking care of the younger generation in the club and has unknowingly developed these skills." Senior Shou: "Observe carefully during the second dive. ”

After chatting with the seniors, Takaharu also talked to Akemi.

During the second dive, Takaharu consciously observed Otoya's actions. Sure enough, he had been silently guiding everyone to have fun and enjoy the process.

This time, due to the presence of novices, only two dives were carried out. After the second dive, no one asked about the third dive, but went ashore to clean their diving suits.

Back at the dive shop, because of the presence of strangers, there was no cocktail party (undressing), but Senior Tokita raised his beer and announced loudly: "Everyone has worked hard!"

"Hard work! ! "×n", everyone raised their cups in response.

Several people gathered at the dining table, and the seniors brought a lot of wine. Kouhei trembled and wanted to change his seat but was rejected.

Sister Nanahua also brought a plate of sashimi, which was the lionfish that they had seen underwater just now, and gently greeted: "Everyone eat more--"

While eating, Otoya accidentally dropped soy sauce on his clothes, and Busujima diligently helped to wipe it.

Otoya stood up and said: "I'm going to change my sunscreen clothes."

Chisa also stood up, "The sunscreen clothes are still hanging outside, I'll take you there."

Otoya: "Thank you very much."

Kouhei stared at Busujima and fell into deep thought. Iori asked curiously: "Kouhei, what's wrong?"

"I was thinking after watching the scene just now," Kouhei stared at Busujima and asked, "Have we met somewhere before?"

BukushimaWith an awkward smile, he said, "How is it possible——"

Takaharu saw Busujima summon Iori again, and then he didn't know what he said, and Aina suddenly ran into the room.

Bored Takaharu stood up and said to Akemi, "I'm going to go outside."

Akemi looked at Aina who had put on heavy makeup. Although she didn't know how Aina got into this state, Akemi, who was curious, waved her hand and let Takaharu go out alone, "I plan to see what Aina wants to do, so I won't go out with her."

Takaharu nodded and slipped out. As soon as he walked to the beach, he heard Otoya ask Chisa, "Excuse me, do you have a lover?"

Shocked, Takaharu hurriedly hid aside, intending to listen to any other shocking news.

Then he heard Otoya's voice, "I'm sorry to ask you this suddenly, but I really care. I really think Kitahara is a very outstanding person!"

I don't know what Chisa's expression was when she faced Otoya directly, but Takaharu, who was eavesdropping, had a brain short circuit, 'Who is he confessing to? Iori? I thought it was Chisa, but Iori is not right either. Isn't Otoya a boy? What's going on? ’

Chisa's voice came faintly, "Then... you are interested in Iori..."

Otoya: "How should I put it? I am interested..."

Takaharu left after hearing this. I don't know how he got back to the diving shop. I just saw Iori and patted his shoulder, "Iori, you have to be mentally prepared~"

After saying that, Takaharu floated to Mingmei and sat down dejectedly.

After being reminded by Takaharu suddenly, Iori, who had just been reminded by senior sister Azusa to be careful of Chisa and Otoya's love, began to panic.

But he still didn't quite believe it. Just then he saw Chisa coming back and called out, "Chisa, you're back."

Iori, who didn't see Otoya, asked Chisa, "Where's Otoya?"

Chisa was suddenly startled. Iori felt something was wrong. Chisa tilted her head and said, "He went to buy juice."

"Is that so?" Iori asked directly, "By the way, Chisa, what did you talk about with Otoya?"

Chisa was even more panicked, "Why are you asking these questions?"

Iori: "No, I just thought you came back a little late. So what did you talk about?"

Chisa thought about it and said shyly, "Something, hard to say..."

Hearing this news, Iori was like a broken defense, holding his head and shouting, "No way!!"

Azusa Senior: "Ah, you're right."

Iori: "I thought Otoya was a herbivore."

Senior Azusa: "It seems like they're really attracted to each other, or maybe something happened and she pushed him."

Senior Azusa imitated Iori and lay on the table and asked: "So how do you feel? Are you shocked?"

"I was shocked... but I felt a little bit like that," Iori said after thinking about the feeling, "like someone confessing to their sister."

A hand suddenly stretched out from the ground and pinched the edge of the table. Kouhei, who was bleeding, poked his head out and said with a gasp: "Really?"

"You're not dead." Iori looked at Kouhei in surprise, thinking, 'I'm going to beat you until you lose your memory.' ’

Kohei said excitedly, “Has she been confessed to?!” (In Japanese, “she” and “girlfriend” are the same word)

So Iori thought about it and thought Chisa could be considered a girlfriend, and replied seriously, “Probably.”

“How can this be possible!!” Kohei was even more excited, but after seeing Iori, he calmed down a little, “So?”

Iori: “So what?”

Kohei: “I asked you why you are not anxious at all!!”

Iori: “Ah? Because it has nothing to do with me.”

“How can it have nothing to do with her!! But you are——” Kohei said loudly, “You are her family member!!”

Iori woke up suddenly, “Yes! Kohei, you want me to judge whether that person is good enough from the perspective of a family member. "

Kohei: "Yes, if you are not worthy, kick him out."

Iori: "What if that guy is really a good match--"

Kohei: "Then show your manliness--get rid of him."

Iori: "You don't have to be so ruthless..."

Over there, Akemi finally woke up Takaharu, "What's wrong with you? Is this what happened after going out?"

Takaharu: "I want to tell you something, don't be afraid."

Akira: "You know me, I was a delinquent before, I won't be afraid."

Takaharu: "I heard Otoya confess, he said it to Chisa."

Akira stood up: "What!"

Takaharu: "He said he is interested in Iori..."

Akira sat down a little unbelievingly, "You are talking about Chisa, right?"Takaharu: "No, it's Iori, the pervert who gets naked."

Amei still didn't believe it, but she didn't laugh. She didn't have a wife to give birth to a child, so of course it was impossible...

She planned to find out for herself. Takaharu was not sure about Otoya's idea, so they decided to act together.
