Zongman: Unknowingly trapped in the hatchet

"Make sure... nothing happens..."

On the bridge, Xueno stared at Su Qing's gradually receding back, and her slender fingers clenched the clothes in her hands even tighter, as if she wanted to melt all her worries and uneasiness into this tight grip.

"There should be something useful..."

Yukino looked around anxiously, her eyes quickly scanning the bridge, finally fixing on the center of the bridge, where the answer she needed seemed to be.

At the same time, the sound of Su Qing jumping into the lake attracted the attention of Yui who was nearby. Although she did not witness the moment when Su Qing jumped, the sound of water splashing clearly reached her ears. She rushed over after hearing the sound, only to see Su Qing swimming towards a certain place in the lake at an astonishing speed.

"Is it...Xiao Bai?"

Yui narrowed her eyes and quickly assessed the situation, realizing that Su Qing had jumped into the lake to rescue the drowning Xiaobai.

"It's okay, come to me."

Su Qing quickly swam to the area where Xiaobai was drowning, lifted him up and placed him on his head. Xiaobai seemed to understand what Su Qing said, and curled up on Su Qing's head, with wet hair clinging to his body, looking particularly helpless.

"Xiaoqing, this way!"

Yui had already rushed to the shore closest to Su Qing at the fastest speed in her life. She was out of breath, but still shouting loudly, holding tightly in her arms a few thick branches that she had picked up from the bridge in a hurry.

Seeing this, Su Qing swam towards Yui with Xiaobai on his head. They swam all the way to the shore. Since the guardrail was not high and there was a gap, Xiaobai realized that he had been rescued, so he gathered his strength and jumped from Su Qing's head to the shore.

"Hurry up, Xiaoqing, grab my hand."

Yui saw Su Qing swimming safely to the shore, and she heaved a sigh of relief, and threw the branch that she had intended to use as a support aside. She leaned on the railing, stretched out a hand towards Su Qing, her eyes full of concern and anxiety.

Xiaobai, who had just jumped onto the shore, shook off the water on his body and looked anxiously at Su Qing below the shore. His sapphire-like eyes were filled with worry.

Seeing this scene, Su Qing just sighed lightly and cursed softly, "Are they all idiots?"

Then he groped along the shore for a while, and soon found a suitable point to exert force. After taking a deep breath, he kicked his legs hard, and his body soared into the air like an arrow.

His movements were smooth and powerful, drawing a beautiful arc in the air. At the same time, one of his hands had already grasped the lower part of the guardrail accurately, with his fingers tightly wrapped around the guardrail, as if integrated with the steel guardrail.

Then, his other hand followed suit and firmly grasped the other side of the guardrail. As his hands alternated, his body got closer and closer to the top of the guardrail.

Finally, with the support of his hands, he exerted force on his waist and turned his body upwards flexibly. His legs drew a neat arc in the air, and he successfully landed on the shore in front of Yui's surprised eyes.

"Are you okay?"

Two different voices sounded at the same time.

Yui turned around and saw that it was Yukino.

But her condition at the moment was not very good. After seeing that Su Qing was fine, Xue Noi finally had time to stop and take a breath. She buried her hands deeply in her knees, as if using them to support her shaky body. Every breath was accompanied by the violent rise and fall of her chest, like waves hitting the shore, rapid and powerful.

The hair became smooth due to sweat, and a few strands of hair stuck to her slightly pale lips, adding a bit of weakness and helplessness, but also unexpectedly outlining an indescribable sense of broken beauty.

"I'm fine. Xiaobai has been found. Please notify Hikigaya and Totsuka on the Line group and ask them to bring the owner over."

Because Su Qing only took off his shirt and shoes, his pants were still on. The latter became wet after being soaked in the lake water, which made Su Qing feel very uncomfortable.

"Okay, I'll tell them." Xue Nai looked at Su Qing who was soaking wet and reminded her, "There is a place to take a shower in the school, go take a shower first."

Because of the island culture, islanders have the habit of taking a bath every day, and this habit also continues in school life. As Sobu High School is one of the top three schools in Tokyo, it will not fall behind in this aspect of welfare for students.

"Well, thank you."

Su Qing nodded slightly, then thanked Yukino and Yui.

"You're welcome... I didn't help you at all."

Yukino turned her face away, not knowing why she was afraid to look Su Qing in the eye. At the same time, she quietly kicked the life buoy that had just been thrown aside away with one foot, pretending nothing had happened. Little did she know that this action gave Su Qing and Yui a layer of cuteness in her eyes.

"I'm glad Xiaoqing is okay. As for pants, let me get you your sweatpants."

"Okay, please."

Yui smiled and replied "OK", then as if she had thought of something, she asked in a low voice:

"Um...should I buy you a disposable one?"

"Yes, please."

Su Qing didn't expect Yui to be so thoughtful. After giving her an admiring look, he found that she had no intention of leaving and seemed to want to say something.

"What's wrong? Is there anything else?" Su Qing asked curiously.

"That...how big is it?"

Yui's face turned even redder.

"what?"

Su Qing was obviously stunned for a moment and didn't react. Yui took advantage of Su Qing's daze and trotted over to Su Qing's side. She stood on tiptoe, her cheeks flushed, and asked in a low voice:

"It's just... it's the size..."

Stupid Xiaoqing, why are you forcing me to speak out? !

So, so shameful!!!

Su Qing didn't expect that Yui, who was usually dull, could pay so much attention to details.

Well done. Don’t do it again next time.

After knowing the answer, Yui said "Oh" softly and left in a hurry.

Su Qing shook his head and didn't care anymore. He turned around and was about to go to the school to take a shower, but a clear and urgent voice stopped him.

"If you don't want rumors of an exhibitionist to spread around the school the next day, just cover your clothes a little."

"Then why not be a hero who saves a lost kitten?" Su Qing disagreed with Xue No's passive exhibitionist statement and retorted.

"Today's wind is very strong." Facing Su Qing's chatter, Xue Nai did not continue to talk about this topic. She just lowered her eyes and said this for no reason. Perhaps she was worried that Su Qing could not understand what she was saying, so she urged:

"Put it on quickly."

When you just come ashore, there is still water on the surface of your skin. The wind will accelerate the evaporation of the water and take away the heat on the surface of the skin, making it especially easy to catch a cold in spring and autumn.

Su Qing did not expose Xue Noi, but just took the clothes with a smile and turned away.

Looking at Su Qing's gradually leaving back, Xue Nai finally let out a long breath, gently placed her hand on her heart, and whispered:

"Finally left..."

But her brows soon frowned and she asked in confusion:

"Why... is there a scar there?"

……

PS:

Thick branches can be thrown to the drowning person so that he or she can grab hold of them and use them for buoyancy, but please pay attention to whether the branches are strong and corroded to ensure that they have sufficient buoyancy.

In addition, this chapter does not contain any negative guidance. If you encounter someone drowning and needs rescue, please call for help as loudly as possible.
