The Azure Sea is not a warrior with ripped clothes.

On the other side, Kitahara Iori was having a great time playing on the poles when she suddenly felt someone patting her shoulder from behind. When she turned around, she saw Yu with a gentle expression on her face.

That's right! Gentleness! It's not a smile or a fierce expression! It's the ultimate gentleness, from the eyes to the subtle facial expressions.

"what!"

He froze for two seconds, a chill instantly running through his body. He immediately sensed something was wrong and turned to run away—no matter what You was up to, it couldn't be anything good! He'd better run first!

However, after taking two steps, Iori noticed something was wrong: no matter how she ran, she could only stay in the same place. The reason for this was probably due to the two large hands on her shoulders.

"Gurgle! Yu, Yu, it was all Chisa's idea to tie you up, I didn't participate in anything! Please don't look at me with that gentle expression!"

"Iori, I've always been a gentle person!"

"You're kidding me, Nanaka-nee!!!"

With a "well" shape appearing on his forehead, Miyazawa Yu watched as Iori howled and tried to summon Nanaka to drive him away. He could only sigh helplessly and gently place him on the ground.

"Sigh, since Iori is being so uncooperative, then this last ice cream will have to go to Kohei..."

"ice cream?"

Upon noticing the key words, Kitahara Iori turned to look at the campfire and saw two children and Azusa-senpai sitting in a row, watching her suffer while slurping ice cream. It seemed that Yu wasn't bluffing!

How could such a good thing happen to him? Has Yu lost his mind?

"Where? You didn't give me any laxatives, did you!?"

"Of course not...it's completely unopened!"

He smeared ice cream on Iori's face in annoyance, and seeing the satisfied smile finally appear on Iori's face after being treated so roughly, Miyazawa Yu took two steps back with a chill.

I should try to avoid using combos on Iori too much in the future. It wouldn't be good if I caused the kid to develop some weird fantasies. After all, I can't let this guy actually have a good time!

"Eat if you want! If you don't want it, give it to Gengping!"

"Ah~ that's right, Yu, you should be more frank!"

After repeatedly checking and confirming that the ice cream was indeed unopened, Kitahara Iori wondered how she might give away what she had obtained, and then stuffed it into her mouth.

However, what he didn't realize was that after eating piping hot barbecue, he was now eating ice cream and about to engage in strenuous exercise, making him a true "three-person stomach upset squad."

Not long after You left, he suddenly felt a bit uncomfortable in his stomach and left the venue first. After relieving himself, he walked back while cursing.

"Damn it, I really fell for Yu's trick again!"

"It's clearly because Iori is an idiot that she gave herself a triple bout of diarrhea!"

Speechless, looking at Iori who was sitting not far away clutching her stomach in discomfort, Kotegawa Chisa felt it was going too far to put all the blame on Yu! Iori clearly had some responsibility too!

"No! It was Yu who planned this all along to frame me! Damn it, my stomach still hurts..."

"Sigh... Come on, let me help you..."

Even if Iori is an idiot, he is still her childhood friend. Seeing how uncomfortable he is, Kotegawa Chisa sighed and went over to help Iori to the toilet.

However, the teaching building already had a canopy to block out the light, and the light was too dim far from the campfire, so she didn't notice anything soft blocking her path.

"Ah, thank you~"

Without thinking much, she looked up and reached out her hand. Kitahara Iori was frowning and trying to use the leverage to get up, but the next second Chisa felt her foot slip and the distance between them was quickly erased.

The former was pressed heavily onto the steps without any chance to react, and the amazing soft touch impacted from the lips all the way to the brain.

"???"

In the darkness, both pairs of eyes opened to their maximum size at the same time. Although Kotegawa Chisa couldn't see, she certainly knew what her lips had touched!

Her mind went blank for two seconds, and the expected disgust and nausea didn't come. It wasn't until Iori's hand trembled as she patted her shoulder that she suddenly sat up.

"Just……"

The distance had increased, but both could see the panic in each other's eyes. Kotegawa Chisa touched her lips with one hand, trying to cover up the unease, and said, "Just now, I think I stepped on something. Iori, are you... alright?"

"fine……"

Iori Kitahara had expected Chisa to scream, wail, writhe, and crawl in the shadows, and he was ready to face the storm!

Even a fool could see that although the current situation was beyond imagination, neither Chisa nor he felt any discomfort about it, as if everything was going smoothly.

When did their relationship become this good?!

"Um, this must be trash someone littered, right? Sorry! If I ever find the person who threw this trash, I'll skin them alive!"

"Actually, there's no need..."

Shyly turning her head to look at her feet, Kotegawa Chisa was about to say "Don't be so violent" when the familiar, mysterious tool came into view the next second.

Lying quietly on the ground, having tripped over itself, was none other than a used konjac with a hole in the middle! If I remember correctly, the last time this thing appeared, its final fate was...

"Iori, was this something you planned all along?"

"Ugh?"

Just when Kitahara Iori thought the matter would be over so easily, he had already begun to settle his score in his mind. The next second, he was grabbed by the collar and met Chisa's eyes, which were full of anger.

"Iori just said that if you find someone throwing away trash, you should skin them alive, right?"

"Uh-huh?!"

"Yoshi~"

Since she dared to do it and take responsibility, there was nothing more to say. With veins bulging on her arms, Kotegawa Chisa dragged the bewildered Iori behind her and walked into the dark school building.

"Sister! Iori seems a bit tired, I'll take him back to sleep first~"

"Alright~ Do we still need to save some wine for Chisa? The children are all asleep, so they can drink the Water of Life!"

Please be sure to leave me a bottle of disinfectant!

……

"Ding!"

Meanwhile, at a barbecue restaurant in Tokyo, a saleswoman was drinking with her friends when her phone suddenly rang. When she picked it up, she was surprised to see that it was a message from the kid she had slapped before.

This time, everyone was properly dressed for the group photo, finally unlike last time when there was so much censorship and pixelation.

"Hmm? What's wrong, Miss Lin?"

"It's nothing, it's just that one department has temporarily kept its position..."

"Oh dear, Miss Lin is so strict!"

Fueled by alcohol, my friend half-jokingly leaned on the table and teased, "I heard there are a lot of muscular guys in the Pab department you're in charge of. How about it? You can start making your move after graduation!"

"Actually, sometimes body shape is secondary; the most important thing is character!"

"Hahahaha! That's not like something you'd say!"

"..."

Sitting solemnly to the side, the bespectacled girl noticed Pab's expression suddenly shift.

Just then, her older sister and her friends got completely drunk and slammed their heads on the table with a thud, so she took her sister's phone without any problem.

A flash of light appeared on her large, round glasses, and a grin spread across her face as she revealed that she had spotted her prey!

Chapter 243 Oh no! Without Yu, Watashi!

A week has passed since the test of courage, and Yoshihara Mana has finally begun to re-examine her feelings. Is that something to celebrate...?

"Sigh, but I still have to help the shop prepare ingredients for tomorrow tonight..."

In the Grand Blue lobby, Yu Miyazawa, wearing a headscarf, kept hesitating as he cooked, repeatedly declining the offer while his eyes were fixed on Aina, who was kneeling outside the bar.

"Besides, these two days are peak diving season, so it's hard to find time during the day. It seems like Uncle Toshio has retired again..."

"Oh no! Without Yu... Watashi!"

"Ugh~ Mana, you're only thinking about yourself!"

Although she said that, seeing that Mana was about to cry, Miyazawa Yu put down what she was doing and called upstairs, "Nanaka-nee! Could you come down and help me cook dinner?"

"Yes--!"

Smiling as she walked down the stairs, Nanaka Kotegawa saw Aina with her butt sticking out high as she stepped down the last step, and her expression instantly turned puzzled.

"Um...Aina, what's going on?"

"To show my sincerity, I visited your humble abode three times!"

Suddenly looking up, Yoshihara Mana, with dark circles under her eyes, wailed loudly, her little expression as if she had suffered some great injustice!

Seeing this, Nanaka Kotegawa was curious about what the former had gone through, but since it was something unpleasant, Mana decided it was best not to rub salt in the wound...

"Are we having wraps tonight? I might not be very good at making wraps..."

"It's okay, the dough is already prepared and in the basket. If it gets too cold, just microwave it."

"..."

With her lips pouting, she watched as Yu skillfully placed her hand on Nana Hana's waist, then gently tapped the latter's head before untying her apron and putting it on her.

Mana Yoshihara squinted, her envy clearly visible. This incredible old married couple vibe was really touching her girlish heart!

Moreover, in comparison, Yu is already living happily with the person she loves, while she is still worrying about love and even has to beg for help on a dogezi (a traditional Chinese kneeling posture). Life is just too unfair!

"Well, okay, Mana..."

Stepping out of the open kitchen, Miyazawa Yu stretched and reached out to turn Mana's head from Nanaka's shoulder to her own. "So what's the problem?"

"In short, it's a huge problem! It can't be explained in just a few words! So please come to my room tonight!"

"hiss……"

Her eyes instantly turned suspicious. Miyazawa Yu had initially thought it was something as trivial as running out of living expenses, but Mana immediately insisted on coming home with him that night! (Invitation!)

Is this right? This is really wrong!

Have you been thinking the wrong thing again after not seeing me for a few days, and are you now setting your sights on me?

"Bridge Bean Sacks!"

Thinking of this, he immediately frowned and reached out to block Mana's advance, preventing her from going any further. With his other hand, he took out his phone from his pocket and called Azusa-senpai, "I have something I want to discuss with a friend!"

"Wait! You've misunderstood. Don't tell Azusa-senpai about this yet!"

The action was all too familiar. Ignoring the arm blocking her way, Yoshihara Aina, tears streaming down her face, squeezed through and insisted on slamming down Yu's phone call, even though her face was distorted by the pressure.

In fact, the fewer people who know about this right now, the better, especially big mouths like Azusa-senpai and Iori, who absolutely cannot be told!

This involves her private life, so we must be firm!

"Sigh, what is it that I can't even tell Senior Zi? Okay, I got it! I won't call her then!"

"Thank you... Actually, the thing is..."

……

"Yes, I roughly understand the situation!"

At 7:30 p.m. that evening, in Aina Yoshihara's small apartment, Yu Miyazawa poked Aina's bulging belly from eating a burrito and concluded, "Aina means that because Kohei's games were confiscated during the trip to Tokyo, he often comes to your place to play video games, right?"

"It's a strange way of putting it, but that's how it is..."

With annoyed, she slapped away Yoshihara Aina's unclean little hand and sat up from a sit-up, her face full of righteous indignation.

"No matter what, it's still my room. Kohei comes here so often, it feels like Yu has taken over Grand Blue!"

"Ah! That is indeed a very serious problem!"

His casual expression instantly turned serious. Miyazawa Yu sat cross-legged and nodded deeply, clearly deeply empathizing with the analogy before him!

If the situation is really as serious as Mana says, then Kohei has really gone too far.

Even in visual novels, there's a weekly limit to how much affection you can build up. How can Kohei bombard the girl with affection all day long?

"Ah...actually, the situation might not be that serious..."

With a speechless look in her eyes, Yoshihara Mana realized that she had underestimated Yu's level of commitment to Grand Blue, but it didn't really matter!

"In short, Senior Azusa definitely can't do anything about scumbags. The only one who can defeat scumbags is scumbags!"

Tears welled up in her eyes again. She scrambled forward two steps, grabbed Yu's hand, and pleaded earnestly with her big, watery eyes, "Please! Please make Kohei disgusted!"

"Ugh~ This is suddenly getting out of hand..."

It was the first time I'd ever felt that Mana was so despicable. Miyazawa Yu closed his eyes and sighed sadly, lamenting what the Pab Club had done to such an introverted girl!
