Youth life starting from the blue sea

"So, does this count as giving someone a beating first and then giving them a sweet treat?" Kohei Imamura complained.

"Forget it." Kitahara Iori said after thinking for a while.

The two beastly seniors first tricked them into participating in something called "Penis", and then said they would take them into the sea. This is nothing more than beating them with a stick and giving them a date.

......

The three of them quickly changed their clothes, and after they confirmed that the diving suits fit their bodies tightly without any gaps, Tokita Shinji spoke.

"Chinatsu, stay for a moment. Shou, take Iori and the others and leave now."

"OK."

029. Boys, is that not possible?

"Senior, is there anything else?"

After Shou Longjiro led the idiot duo out of the hall, Nishiki Chinatsu turned around and looked at Tokita Shinji in confusion.

"That's right." Tokita Shinji nodded, "In fact, we just talked about part of the Izu Spring Festival."

"Part of it?"

"Yes, in the Spring Festival, in addition to the 'penis' competition for the men, there is actually a Miss beauty pageant for the women."

"Girls' group?" Nishiki Chinatsu raised her eyebrows. He could probably guess Tokita Shinji's purpose. "Senior, you don't want to?"

"Go and persuade Chisa to participate in the beauty pageant." Tokita Shinji said bluntly.

"No, I refuse." Nishiki Chinatsu replied without thinking.

It is true that Chisa Furutegawa is very cute, but judging from her personality, she doesn't seem like someone who would agree to participate in a beauty pageant.

Tokita Shinji's expression remained unchanged, it was obvious that Nishiki Chinatsu's choice was something he had expected.

"Don't be so quick to refuse. We have our reasons for wanting Qiansha to participate in the competition."

"Isn't it for the prize money of the competition?"

"It's just for the prize money of the competition."

Nishiki Chinatsu was silent.

To be honest, he was a little overwhelmed by Tokita Shinji's sincerity.

"I still refuse. And why do you want me to convince Chisa? Logically speaking, Iori is the one who is closest to Chisa."

"Of course, this is because Qiansha has a better impression of you, so I think if you go and persuade Qiansha, she will have a greater chance of agreeing."

"As expected of you, senior. You're really good at judging people." Nishiki Chinatsu bared her teeth and gave Tokita Shinji a thumbs up.

I'm not exaggerating, but compared to the Idiot Duo, he also felt that Chisa Furukawa had a much higher impression of him.

"Then I'll leave the important task of persuading Chisa to you." Tokita Shinji patted Nishiki Chinatsu's shoulder and said in a solemn voice.

"I can only say give it a try, but I can't guarantee whether it will succeed or not." said Chinatsu Nishiki.

After all, Tokita Shinji had said so much, so it would be somewhat impolite if he didn't agree.

Seeing that Nishiki Chinatsu agreed, Tokita Shinji also smiled and said, "It's okay. It doesn't matter if you fail."

Anyway, there is still a guaranteed win in the 'male root' event.

Just as he was thinking about it, Tokita Shinji heard Chinatsu Nishiki's voice again.

"By the way, Senior, I have one last question."

"what is the problem?"

"The women's beauty pageant is a serious one, right?" Nishiki Chinatsu said with a serious look on her face.

Hearing this, Tokita Shinji looked at Nishiki Chinatsu strangely: "Of course it's serious, and Chisa also visited last year, otherwise we wouldn't have thought of letting her appear."

"Really? That's good."

"Any question?"

"Have."

"?"

Tokita Shinji was a little stunned. He just asked casually, why is this kid really problematic?

Nishiki Chinatsu pinched her chin and asked seriously, "Although, can only girls participate in the women's beauty pageant?"

......

Because it was the first time for Chinatsu Nishiki and the other two to try diving, the diving site chosen by Tokita Shinji and the others was the shallow water area at the seaside.

"Hey, you guys are finally here."

Standing in the water, Shou Longjiro waved to the two people who arrived late.

In response, Tokita Shinji also raised his hand and said, "Sorry, I kept you waiting."

When the two of them got into the water, Imamura Kohei suddenly noticed that Nishiki Chinatsu was looking at him in a strange way, and he couldn't help but frowned and asked, "Why are you staring at me?"

"Nothing." Nishiki Chinatsu denied and withdrew her gaze.

It’s a pity that only girls can participate in the women’s beauty pageant, and boys are not allowed.

This is clearly discrimination!

Originally, Nishiki Chinatsu was thinking that since she was in the men's group, if Chisa Kotegawa didn't agree to participate, she would send Kohei Imamura to participate in the women's beauty pageant. As a result...

Tsk! Where is the equality between men and women?

"Are you serious? But why do I feel like you are plotting against me?" Imamura Kohei said suspiciously.

"Really? I'm not you and Iori, so how could I have so many conspiracies and tricks?" Nishiki Chinatsu argued without hesitation.

The idiot duo slowly typed a question mark.

What do you mean he is not one of them?

In addition, what Chinatsu Nishiki said made it seem like the two of them had a lot of conspiracies and tricks in their daily lives. You know, it was obviously him who often tricked them!

"..."

The more they thought about it, the more indignant they felt, and they immediately prepared to have a good talk with Nishiki Chinatsu about the matter.

But Nishiki Chinatsu didn't plan to talk nonsense with them anymore. She turned to Tokita Shinji and asked, "Senior, are we going to start diving now?"

"No hurry, wait a little longer, there is still one person who hasn't arrived yet."

"Is there anyone else who hasn't arrived? Didn't Chisa say she was going to watch the store?" Kitahara Iori was easily diverted.

"I'm not talking about Chisa...Oh, the last one is here." Shou Ryujiro said.

Everyone followed his gaze and saw a beautiful figure also wearing a diving suit walking towards them.

“Senior!?”*2.

"Nana-san!?"

"Sorry, I was just busy." Nanaka explained to the five people with an apologetic smile.

"It doesn't matter. The business in the store is important."

Tokita Shinji said this, and then looked at Nishiki Chinatsu and the other two.

"Let me explain to you, although this is a shallow water area, this is diving after all, so considering the principle of two people going together and there are five of us, we asked Nanahua to help."

"So that's how it is." The three musketeers suddenly realized.

"Okay, now that everyone is here, let's start communicating in groups," said Shou Longjiro.

As soon as the words fell, Nishiki Chinatsu quickly raised her hand and said, "I'm in the same group with senior!"

"Okay, then come with me." Nanahua was stunned for a moment, then nodded with a smile.

"Yes." Nishiki Chinatsu responded, then followed Nanaka to the side.

As he walked, he did not forget to turn around and give a smug smile to Kitahara Iori and Imamura Kohei.

Then, as expected, the duo of idiots who had just come to their senses suddenly turned pale after seeing this scene.

"Shit! I accidentally let Chinatsu get ahead of me again!"

'This guy is too arrogant! Force him to drink! Must force him to drink! No matter what I say today, I have to get this bastard drunk again!'

As they were exchanging eye contact, they heard the voices of Tokida Shinji and the others again.

"Then I'll be in a team with Iori."

"In that case, Kouhei, please practice with me."

030. Comrade, vodka!

"...Then let's practice diving now with peace of mind."

After confirming that Nishiki Chinatsu still remembered the relevant essentials and matters regarding diving, and having her check her equipment again to make sure there were no problems, Nanaka clapped her hands with a smile.

"Don't worry about your safety. We've checked it, and I'm here. No matter what happens, I can rescue you."

"I understand, senior." Nishiki Chinatsu nodded.

She is worthy of being my wife. This gentle smile is as soothing as an angel's.

Thinking of this, Nishiki Chinatsu put on her diving goggles, bit the breathing regulator in her mouth, and dived into the water with a "splash".

breathe in ~ breathe out ~

Two strings of bubbles came out from the holes on both sides of the breathing head. Nishiki Chinatsu slowly opened his eyes, and then he was a little stunned.

Although there was no sight of fish swimming around as she had imagined, the scene in front of her also gave Nishiki Chinatsu a novel feeling.

The place where they were staying was originally a shallow water area, and when he stood up, the water depth was just up to his lower abdomen.

But it is precisely because the water is so shallow that the sunlight can penetrate directly to the bottom of the water, rendering the underwater world a blue color.

It’s really beautiful!

If the senior hadn't worn a diving suit and only a swimsuit, the underwater scenery would have seemed even more beautiful.

By the way, I don’t know if the underwater scenery in Tokyo Bay will be the same as here. I hope that when the ship sinks one day, they will be kind enough to give me a set of diving equipment.

......

"cheers!"

As a diving club, after the new members successfully tried diving for the first time, we had to celebrate by drinking.

After taking a sip of beer, Nishiki Chinatsu let out a breath with a happy smile on her face.

"Cool!"

"Yeah, because salt water will make your mouth very salty, so drinking alcohol will feel very strong." Tokita Shinji said with a smile.

"How was it? How did it feel like to dive for the first time?" asked Shou Longjiro.

When diving, he was in a group with Kitahara Iori, so he wanted to ask Nishiki Chinatsu and the others about how they felt while diving.

"It's pretty good and feels quite novel." Nishiki Chinatsu answered after thinking for a while while eating the seafood sashimi given by her neighbor.

"Me too. I feel like I'm really into diving." Kohei Imamura replied thoughtfully.

The initial reason he joined the diving club was because he was tricked by Kitahara Iori. Later, after experiencing the devastation of many large and small drinking parties, he decided to stay in the diving club because he learned that Mizuki Natsuya often came to GB to dive.

In other words, it was not until today when I officially tried diving and personally witnessed and experienced the mystery of the ocean that I truly became interested in diving.

Thinking of this, Imamura Kohei looked at Kitahara Iori again and teased with a smile on his face.

"I think it's the same for Iori. When we were changing clothes earlier, you looked just like a little kid when you were excited to share your feelings with Chisa."

Kitahara Iori felt a little embarrassed because he had indeed been a little too excited just now.

But he couldn't help it. After all, before this he was a landlubber who couldn't even swim. But today he was able to dive into the sea and witness its mysterious side with his own eyes.

"But I'm really happy. It's like I've stepped into a new world."

"New world?" Nishiki Chinatsu showed an expression of awareness, then looked at Shou Longjiro and asked, "Senior, did you encounter dolphins?"

"No, generally speaking, dolphins don't come to the seaside." Shou Longjiro was slightly stunned and answered subconsciously.
