Takako Toda smiled and nodded, took off her shirt to reveal the segmented swimsuit that perfectly highlighted her delicate body curves, and casually draped it over the back of a chair.

"Then everyone, eat first, I'm going to go snorkel for a while."

Masahiko Matsuzaki immediately stood up to object.

"No, we just had dinner, and you drank!"

"It's okay, it's okay~ It's a good time to exercise after dinner. Besides, I didn't drink that much."

After saying that, she walked towards the beach.

Masumi Sera, who happened to see this scene, turned to Serabelle and said excitedly.

"Bernini-chan, shall we go snorkeling later this afternoon?"

"I……"

Of course, Serabel always took an indifferent attitude towards such things, but just when he was about to say "all right", he stopped abruptly and glanced at Akai Mari on the other side.

Seeing that the British girl didn't express her opinion and just drank her drink silently, he nodded.

"Sure, all is fine."

"Wuhu~"

The tiger-fanged girl raised her arms happily and cheered.

Seeing her daughter so happy, Akai Mary didn't know what to say. She just smiled slightly through the cover of the drink cup and shook her head helplessly.

After a while, shouts suddenly came from the beach outside.

"Someone's drowning!"

Chapter 117 Mary: Get a new name√

drowning.

This is a word that can often be seen wherever there is large amounts of water.

Not to mention semi-natural water storage sites such as reservoirs and fish ponds, even in indoor swimming pools with constant temperature all year round, people often suffer from leg cramps and choking after entering the water due to insufficient warm-up exercises.

Fortunately, the indoor swimming pool not only has special safety guards on duty, but also has a large number of people. Even if the safety guard does not notice it at the first time, other swimmers nearby will quickly discover it and provide assistance.

In fact, there are safety guards at the beach here.

The only problem is...it's lunch time now. Theoretically, everyone should be eating at this time, including the security guard himself.

It's noon, who would swim there without eating?

Oh no, it seems there really is one.

For example, there was a female college student at Kogoro Maori's table outside the store who drank and wanted to go snorkeling.

It is said that joining in the fun is human nature. The shout outside attracted more than 70% of the attention in the store. Almost everyone put down the food in their hands and tilted their heads to look outside at the beach.

Even the waitress who was serving the dishes stopped and turned her head in confusion.

...I started looking for who was the big idiot who didn't eat properly at noon and went swimming and almost drowned himself.

Even the people at Kogoro Mori's table were still chatting and laughing.

"By the way, what about Guihezi? She drank a little, so she should be okay, right?"

"I don't know. She said it's no problem, and if you want to snorkel, it should be right at the beach."

"Let me see... Oh, I see it, over there, waving to us..."

As we all know, most of the questions in this world can be answered with two options.

One is none of your business, the other is none of my business.

Serabelle is the kind of person who deeply understands the essence of the latter. Anyway, all the people here who are familiar with him are sitting at the table and eating happily. Even if someone drowns, it will only be a stranger who has basically no connection with him. It doesn't matter whether he dies or not.

So he decisively grabbed a string of steaming grilled squid tentacles that had just been served on the table, blew on them, and took a bite.

Really fragrant.

Nodding with satisfaction in her heart, Serabelle turned to the British girl who was silently chewing potatoes beside her and handed her the squid tentacles.

"Mary Jie... Uh, Mary, do you want to try it too? I think it's quite delicious."

The new name that she had never heard from the other party caused Akai Mari to pause slightly in her elegant eating.

She glanced at the squid tentacles in the hand of the man in front of her, and her pretty eyebrows immediately frowned.

As a typical British person, Mary Akai seldom eats foods such as fish and shellfish. As for seafood such as squid tentacles, she has never eaten them at all. She prefers beef, mutton and other meats to seafood.

But after all, it was handed to me by Serabelle, so I can trust his taste in food to some extent.

After barely preparing herself mentally, Akai Mari lifted the hair that fell beside her cheek, leaned forward and took a small bite from the place where Serabel had nibbled.

Well, it's really delicious, but a little fishy...

However, just a second after Akai Mary made her inner judgment, Sera Masumi, who was sitting on the other side of Serabelle, suddenly stood up by supporting herself on the table with both hands.

She squinted her eyes and looked at Toda Takako who was waving towards the beach in the distance, and was suddenly startled.

"No, she wasn't waving at us, she was calling for help!"

"Call for help?"

Sera Masumi's voice was so loud that even the table of Mouri Kogoro outside the store could hear it, and they all turned around and looked towards the sea.

"Uh, speaking of which, Takako's waving motion seems a little strange?"

"Could it really be a leg cramp?"

"Don't talk so much, just go and take a look, in case something really happens!"

After all, they were all classmates in the same club of the same university. When they heard that something might have happened, they all stopped eating, put down the cups and bowls in their hands, and rushed to the beach.

Among them, it was Masahiko Matsuzaki, a landlubber, who ran the fastest.

He was worried about his fiancée, so he rushed into the sea shouting "Gui Hezi" against the waves. However, he lost his balance when the water just reached his knees and was knocked over by the oncoming waves, and almost drowned.

Fortunately, at the critical moment, a hand reached out from behind and grabbed him.

It’s Masazumi Sera.

After she said that Toda Takako was calling for help, she left the table and rushed to the beach. Since she had practiced Jeet Kune Do since she was a child, her speed was even faster than that of Mori Kogoro and others who were closer to the beach. She arrived at the beach in just a few seconds and grabbed Matsuzaki Masahiko who was about to go to Calabash Brothers to save his grandfather.

"If you can't swim, just stay here. We will rescue Miss Toda!"

As soon as he finished speaking, several people from other diving clubs rushed up. One of them grabbed Matsuzaki Masahiko who wanted to move forward, and the rest rushed forward. One was responsible for holding up her head to keep her face above the water, and the rest steadied their bodies on both sides. They soon carried the drowning Toda Takawako to the shore.

"It's okay, it's okay."

Matsuzaki Masahiko, who was forbidden from entering the water to rescue his fiancée because he was a landlubber, could only stroke her cheek to comfort her.

Toda Takako, who had just escaped from danger, forced herself to open her eyes, looked at her boyfriend who was anxious and soaked, and smiled weakly and contentedly.

"Ya Yan...you are here..."

"Ah, this landlubber just now bravely rushed towards you regardless of everything, luckily the girl grabbed him in time."

Someone on the side immediately said.

On the other side, the tiger-toothed girl, whose pace was slowed down by a landlubber, had just swam to the shallow water and was about to stand up by supporting herself on the sand when the sun above her head was suddenly blocked for a moment.

A hand reached down, accompanied by a familiar, faint voice.

"Really? Isn't this making you soaked?"

"Hey hehe~"

Sera Masumi smiled foolishly and grabbed the hand without thinking, then stood up dragging her sun protection jacket which was completely soaked in sea water.

The person who helped her up was naturally Serabelle. This guy came to pick up his sister and took a string of grilled squid tentacles in his hand and ate them while walking. The rolling waves wet half of his loose beach pants.

"Saving people is the most important thing. We didn't take care of that. Besides, brother, you haven't done anything yet, have you?"

"Then who told you to run so fast..."

Serabelle rolled her eyes slightly on her determined face, which rarely changed her expression.

Then he turned to Xiaolan, who was still floating on the sea not far away, looking at something. This unicorn girl also didn't even have time to take off her coat, and her sweatshirt was soaked.

"Come ashore, don't stay in the water any longer."

"Uh...wait a minute, I think I saw something in the water..."

Xiaolan continued to turn her head left and right, looking for something in the water. Before she could finish her words, she dived into the water.

When the probe resurfaced, her pretty face was filled with fear.

"Oh no! There's a sea snake in the water!"

"sea snake!?"

……

At the same time, in a luxury house in Beika-cho, Tokyo, an older girl who had been "thrifty" for half a week turned over on the sofa in boredom while enjoying the air conditioning.

"So boring... Oh well, let's send a message to bother Sera-kun..."

Chapter 118 Yukiko Has Already Won Too Much

I never expected that a creature like a sea snake would appear on the beach where so many people gather.

Hearing Xiaolan's voice coming from behind, Matsuzaki Masahiko, who was walking in front and was originally preparing to return to the hotel to rest with his fiancée on his back, was stunned.

It is something that all diving enthusiasts know, that is, almost all sea snake species are highly venomous.

Realizing this, Matsuzaki Masahiko immediately stopped and turned to look.

I saw that my fiancée, who had just been able to force a smile and talk to me, had turned pale, her eyes were closed, she was breathing hard and short, and beads of sweat were hanging on her forehead and nose.

This is definitely not the reaction that should occur after simply choking on water!

"Gui Hezi? Gui Hezi? Cheer up, Gui Hezi!"

"Don't shout. Instead of wasting time, you should put her down and call emergency services. Then quickly find the wound from the sea snake bite and tie it up with a tie to slow down the spread of the venom."

At this moment, Serabel, who was pulling Sera Masumi ashore, came from behind and said, then he looked around and swept his eyes over the faces of several people present.

"Then one of you has to suck out the snake venom with your mouth. I'll go get some black tea now. Remember to rinse the wound with black tea after sucking out the snake venom... Of course, the person responsible for sucking out the snake venom must also rinse his mouth with black tea, if he doesn't want to be poisoned himself."

"oh oh."

After being given the most precise instructions in a calm, almost indifferent tone by a teenager who was several years younger than them, several college students quickly calmed down and began to look for wounds and call emergency services step by step.

As for Serabelle, she continued to pull Sera Masumi towards the beach restaurant where they had previously dined.

After walking a short distance away, the girl with tiger teeth asked curiously.

"Brother, why did you ask them to use black tea to wash the wound? Can black tea detoxify?"

Serabelle shook her head. "It's not that useful. It can only be considered a delaying tactic. Black tea contains tannic acid, which can neutralize snake venom. However, it can only neutralize it, making it easier for the injured to hold on until medical care arrives."

"Brother, you know all this?" Sera Masumi exclaimed.

“Just basic common sense.”

Serabelle said this with a hint of confusion on her face.

"But I'm more curious about another thing than this. Most, if not all, sea snakes won't actively attack humans. There are only a few snakes that will fight back. Most sea snakes will just run away when they encounter humans."

"Maybe what Miss Gui Hezi encountered was a sea snake that would attack humans?" the girl with tiger teeth guessed.

"Then the hotels here should probably prepare to close down."

Serabelle shrugged.

"Well, maybe it is. Although it is unlikely in theory, what if it happens?"

As they were talking, the two of them had already returned to the restaurant entrance one after the other. Originally the table was full of people, but now only Kogoro Mouri was left sitting at the table, holding a cup of tea with a confused look on his face.

"What's going on? What happened? Didn't you say he was drowning? Why are you suddenly giving first aid?"

"Not only did she drown, Ms. Toda was also bitten by a sea snake."

Serabelle briefly explained the following situation, then unceremoniously reached for the red teacup in Kogoro Mori's hand.
