Since things had come to this, the only option was to rush out and interrupt them; hopefully, it hadn't even started yet.

With this thought in mind, Lu Nan decisively rushed out.

"Stop! Don't continue! There are people watching!"

However, what he saw was not what he had expected.

Under the pure white moonlight, Chisa stepped on Iori's head, stomping him into the water and completely ignoring Iori's struggles.

Lu Nan was horrified. Had he arrived too late? Had the scene fast-forwarded too quickly, leaving Chisa dissatisfied, and thus resorting to murder to silence her?!

"What the hell are you doing?!"

Hearing Lu Nan's roar, Iori struggled to lift her head from the water, looking completely bewildered: "Lu Nan?! What are you doing here?"

Lu Nan's lips twitched: "I think we should be asking you that question."

Kohei silently closed his eyes: "I just thought you were a little strange at first, but I didn't expect your behavior to become so bizarre now?"

Iori quickly explained, "Well, it's because... my wallet fell into the pool!"

"Are you fucking talking nonsense again?!" Lu Nan sneered, "If I don't find your wallet in the pool later, you're never getting out of the pool for the rest of your life."

"Iori, tell us honestly, are you hiding something from us?" Kohei pleaded earnestly, "Mental health issues should be treated as early as possible. I know a good doctor who can offer discounts!"

Seeing that the two seemed genuinely worried, Iori had no choice but to tell the truth: "Okay, actually, this is diving training."

Lu Nan slowly straightened up, his face becoming expressionless: "Kouhei."

Kohei revealed a chilling smile, and an entrenching tool appeared in his hand: "Got it, buried in that forest over there, right?"

Iori's face was filled with terror: "What are you going to do?! Didn't I already tell you?!"

"Still lying?!" Lu Nan roared, pulling out Banami from behind him: "Tell Banami what you're saying and see if she believes you!"

Banai honestly shook her head.

Mana Yoshihara then peeked out and said, "To be honest, this is kind of strange, like something that's geared towards experts."

Iori shook her head repeatedly: "No, no, no, it's more like something only a beginner would do, isn't it?"

Chisa sighed and rubbed her forehead in exasperation. The group of people in front of her were clearly not on the same wavelength.

"Actually, he's telling the truth. It really was just a diving practice." Chisa had no choice but to step in and explain.

"Oh, I see." Lu Nan finally understood.

“Okay, it seems we misunderstood.” Kohei also put away his entrenching tool.

"Why did you all believe her just because she said that?!" Iori exclaimed indignantly. "What happened to our brotherhood?!"

"There's no way around it, the things you say make you want to think carefully," Lu Nan shrugged. "So, why did things turn out this way?"

"So, so, so, so... so I'm practicing removing water from my face mask."

"I see." Banai breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that Chisa had not betrayed the organization.

"Why didn't you just make that clear from the beginning?" Yoshihara Aina asked, puzzled.

"I'm really angry because you guys are making fun of me!" Iori said, biting her finger with a grimace.

"That kind of thing can't be true, can it?" Yoshihara Aina asked doubtfully.

Iori's face flushed red, and she said through gritted teeth, "Why don't you turn around and take a look?"

When Yoshihara Aina turned around, she found that Lu Nan and Kohei had completely lost control of their expressions.

It was a smile that resembled a big clown's smile. The reason she didn't laugh out loud was because she was afraid that she might accidentally laugh too loudly and wake up her seniors.

It took them a while to break free from the cycle of [laughing out loud] → [not wanting to wake the senior] → [holding it in] → [unable to hold it in any longer] → [holding it in as hard as they could].

Lu Nan and Kohei sandwiched Iori in the middle, completely ignoring how sour his face was, and kept spouting nonsense.

"Hey, is that how you think of your buddy? That's too much. We're such good brothers, even if you can't learn anything like a stupid pig, we won't criticize you too much, right?"

"Yeah, I love playing with people who can't dive, it's so much fun!"

"You two bastards..." Iori almost couldn't bear the humiliation and jumped into the water to commit suicide.

But after a short while, the two stopped teasing him.

"But after all, we've come all this way." Lu Nan patted Iori on the shoulder. "We really can't go back empty-handed."

"So, I'll let the two of us help you. We're strong enough, you definitely won't be able to get out." Kohei said, putting his arm around Iori's neck and winking at me.

"I'm telling you guys..." Iori was inexplicably moved.

"So stick your head out and let me step on it!"

"Hurry up! My feet are already itching to bite!"

"You two scumbags! Give me back the emotion you once felt!"

Banami grabbed Chisa's arm and smiled broadly: "It's so good that you didn't betray the organization!"

Chisa tilted her head in confusion and mumbled something.

……

At that moment, an ordinary passerby, who was taking a walk because of a broken heart, witnessed a breathtaking scene under the moonlight.

He opened his phone with trembling hands: "Hello? Is this 1100? I saw two men strip another man naked and throw him into the pool, then keep stomping on him to keep him from floating. There were also three women standing around watching."

"Yes, those two men had blissful smiles on their faces, they are very likely perverts."

Chapter 186 It seems we can't get out.

Since Iori had two "better" sparring partners, Chisa naturally went back to rest with the girls, leaving Lunan and Kohei to be Iori's sparring partners.

But after the girls left, the sparring partners stopped performing.

"Iron! Iron!"

"Die! Die!"

Iori choked on a mouthful of water, looking completely bewildered as she rolled over to dodge the incoming giant foot before surfacing, still looking utterly confused: "Wait, you two really want to kill me?!"

Lu Nan smiled and said, "How could that be?"

Kohei smiled as well: "Yes, how could that be?"

"Bullshit! You guys never intended for me to come up here! You practically stomped my head into my stomach! You two bastards!" Iori roared furiously, "Can't you be serious for once?!"

"Tch, fine, fine."

"You're such a spoilsport."

"What the hell did you two scumbags take my training for?!"

……

"Even after all this practice, there's still water in my diving mask..." Iori looked at the diving mask she had taken off with some distress.

"Are you even capable of this?" Lu Nan squatted down and looked at Iori helplessly. "Don't let it turn out you really won't be able to take the license test later."

"Tsk, well, I can't do anything about it. I've already tried my best." Iori retorted, dissatisfied.

“You’re probably still a little afraid of water; you’ll need to overcome that.” Kohei said, stroking his chin. “In that case, why don’t you try the [self-hypnosis method]?”

"Self-hypnosis?" Iori asked, somewhat puzzled.

Kohei went inside, grabbed a towel and soap, and handed them to Iori, saying, "It's to make you remind yourself that you're taking a bath. If your body is in a familiar state, your mind should be able to adjust."

Lu Nan's eyes lit up: "Not bad! Great idea! Iori, you should give it a try!"

Iori took the towel and put it on her head, put the soap aside, leaned against the edge of the pool, and began to repeatedly suggest to herself that she was taking a bath.

He opened his eyes a moment later, looking helpless: "It doesn't seem to work? Will this even work?"

Lu Nan thought for a moment and said, "I think what Kohei said is probably correct. The main problem now is probably that the sense of immersion is not strong enough."

"Immersion?" Both Iori and Kohei were somewhat puzzled.

“Right! Because Iori doesn’t really feel like she’s taking a bath, she naturally can’t hypnotize herself. What we need to do next is increase her sense of immersion!” Lu Nan snapped his fingers, seemingly very satisfied with his amazing wisdom.

Lu Nan's gaze slowly shifted to Iori's swim trunks: "So, first up is this..."

Iori's lips twitched: "I feel like something's not right."

"Yes, yes."

Iori had no choice but to obey Lu Nan's instructions and let the swim trunks go home first.

A moment later, Iori opened her eyes: "It's still not working! You two are staring at me like this, it doesn't look like I'm taking a bath at all!"

Lu Nan and Geng Ping looked at each other, seemingly agreeing.

"Either you leave or you come down and stay with me, that's the only way," Iori said helplessly.

Lu Nan sighed as he removed his armor: "Fine, what can a father do if he has to spoil his son?"

To avoid getting his clothes wet, Gengping deliberately kicked them a little further away: "Yeah, since your eldest uncle said so, your second uncle can only follow suit."

"I'll get you two out of here." Iori smiled helplessly and closed her eyes again.

The three of them leaned silently against the edge of the pool, as quiet as if they were in a sauna.

"Thank you," Iori suddenly said softly.

Lu Nan opened his eyes and looked at the dazzling starry sky above him: "What nonsense are you talking about? If you want to thank me, hurry up and learn. Once you've mastered it, go take the test tomorrow and we'll go shark hunting in the sea together."

"……OK."

"Can I catch a mermaid?"

"Get out!" ×2

……

Iori emerged from the water, raised her diving goggles amidst the expectant gazes of Lu Nan and Kohei, and smiled, "Success!"

"You're pretty good, kid!"

"He's barely one-tenth as good as me!"

"Get out of here, you two!"
