"dicine, dicine, keep going forward!!"
"Zi! — Ang! — Brother! —"
Lin Li shouted hoarsely, running along the edge of the pool.
The run under the sunset that day, those were Brother Ziang's missing swim trunks.
Although for safety's sake, his barefoot run on the wet ground couldn't be fast, the pursued one was swimming, so Lin Li quickly outpaced Zeng Ziang.
Thus, with his upper body facing the pool, Lin Li began frantically waving his hands and calling out:
"Yaino—Yaino—"
Lin Li's voice was full of emotion, without any technique.
However.
At this mont, Lin Li thought of a twist story that's mind-blowing.
It is said, long, long ago, there was soone nad Xiaoming.
Then, Xiaoming didn't hear.
Damn it!
Zeng Ziang can't hear right now either!
...
The montum from jumping into the water had dissipated, and the air taken in by the lungs had been completely consud, so Zeng Ziang couldn't continue his dive.
He erged from the water like a lotus, changing his swimming style to the fastest freestyle, or crawl, wriggling forward.
When subrging into water, the world was muted, almost all sounds were isolated.
And when his head erged above water, the water pooled in his ears flowed out, and the world beca noisy again.
—All was the sound of splashing water and turbulence brought by hand movents.
At this mont, Zeng Ziang, focused on breathing and adjusting the slight flaws in his strokes from not swimming for a long ti, paid no attention to the outside sounds.
He was enjoying swimming.
Ah, it's so refreshing~
Zeng Ziang didn't know if it was because he hadn't swum for a long ti or if the Nansang swimming pool had so unique design, but this swim was incredibly novel, comfortable, and enjoyable.
There was a sense of natural integration; Zeng Ziang even felt that at this mont he had completely beco one with this pool, with no barriers.
There is in the water, and water in .
His whole body was bathed in the soft, silky flow of the water, sliding forward smoothly.
This was an experience he had never had before, and Zeng Ziang even couldn't help but want to sing:
Couldn't help transforming into a stubborn fish ~ swimming alone against the current to the end ~ the vows made piously in youth ~ silently sinking into the deep sea ~
Zeng Ziang felt that he was sentenced to a lifeti of solitude by love.
Swimming was indeed his beloved sport, so graceful, feeling the relaxation of every pore, Zeng Ziang couldn't help but want to close his eyes, letting his body freely perform with muscle mory.
Hmm?
Because his head had been above water, Zeng Ziang finally noticed Lin Li running along the right side of the pool with his peripheral vision before closing his eyes.
When Lin Li realized that he was finally noticed, Zeng Ziang could clearly see the joy and surprise in him, seemingly saying sothing.
The splashes and turbulence still completely drowned it out, Zeng Ziang didn't hear it.
But looking at Lin Li excitedly waving his hand toward him, with a smile on his face and running now, he didn't need to hear it anymore.
Zeng Ziang already understood Lin Li's aning.
—Seeing swim so fast, you want to have a speed race with , right?
Ha, if it were before, I might have been scared to compete since the opponent is on the shore, but this ti, holding this inexplicable comfortable power, I won't lose!
The fighting spirit and passion… have ignited!
So, Zeng Ziang's left hand continued in a standard swimming posture, while his right hand seized the perfect mont, raised high, and waved back to Lin Li.
Lin Li, the future may be yours, but now, it's not yet the future, let's… have a try!
Zeng Ziang took a deep breath, focusing solely on moving forward, his vision crossing countless people who seed to be watching him, reaching the wall at the end of the pool.
Co on, my body, I command you, give it your all, burn!
Zeng Ziang pushed forward fiercely, swimming with such intensity, abandon, and recklessness!
...
When Lin Li saw Zeng Ziang smiling and waving at him, he originally thought that guy heard him, and was about to breathe a sigh of relief, but then he saw Zeng Ziang suddenly accelerating in the pool, and beca dumbfounded.
"(;☉_☉)?"
Damn it.
Zeng Ziang, what are you doing?
After you've noticed , you still don't stop, and you're accelerating towards Hell, what are you doing?
The string that Lin Li was holding onto completely snapped in this mont of hope arriving and then extinguishing.
Feeling so despair, Lin Li knelt down by the pool, supporting the ground with his left hand, while reaching out with his right hand in the direction Zeng Ziang was swimming, seemingly trying to catch that elusive hope:
"dicine... dicine... please..."
"Brother Ziang, that's Hell..."
"Why, why must you speed up..."
No response whatsoever.
Lin Li hopelessly hung his head, pounding the wet ground with his right hand, water splashing everywhere.
A voice ca through the grit of his teeth:
"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it! Are you kidding ! In the end, I did nothing! Changed nothing! I can't... I can't do anything!!!"
At this mont, Lin Li finally understood what Alan felt when he watched Uncle Hannes being consud.
But despair and hope coexist.
Just like when Alan was in despair, Mikasa imdiately went to tell him—"Alan, you've always been by my side, teaching how to survive, wrapping the scarf around , you've done more than nothing."
In fact, the world was also telling Lin Li in its way—you haven't done nothing either!
