[Free! ] Dolphin rearing posture

"..."

"..." Rui opened the distance between her and Nanase Haruka with her arms propped up.

The two stared at each other, but neither spoke first.

Nanase Haruka lowered her head slightly, put her hand on the top of her head and rubbed it a few times, then stood up, and extended her hand to her.

Rui's eyes flickered for a while, and then she blushed as if realizing something...

"Where are you looking, you idiot Nanase!—"

In the 400-meter freestyle relay, it was finally heard that they lost to Yugaru, and Nagisa Hazuki and Rei Ryusaki were still unhappy about this.

"Well... I only felt it after I saw your swimming style today." When I went back with Yuan Yaya, Mina Yami's golden hair was shining with a dazzling luster, "Why did you like it before?" swim."

"...Pfft." Rui let out a muffled laugh, and put her hands on Minami's shoulders, "Ami, stop talking with such a serious expression, I won't be used to it!"

"Oh, that's right..." Yuan Yaya now finds that there are fewer people going back with her now, "Where is the person who loves her?"

When Rui heard this, she immediately showed a look of being useless, and said helplessly: "You know, Yami. Ever since Sasa gave away her own chocolate..."

Minamoto Yaya's expression then assimilated with Rui's.

Soon it was the beginning of the new school year, and she, Minamoto and Arisa Higurashi were already third graders, and the club had sent away a group of students, and it was time to recruit new ones.

"Everyone knows some things, so I won't say much. It is similar to the Disciplinary Committee, which is a department directly under the Student Union, but it can also be regarded as a school club. The reason why the Disciplinary Committee exists is to protect everyone's safety. , and also for the sake of everyone's happiness, ah, although it's a bit embarrassing to say such a thing..."

At the club recruiting meeting, the first thing to start was the publicity of the Disciplinary Committee.

Rui's expression was also very indifferent, "Well, after a year, our Chairman Yuan has also worked very hard, especially after opening the so-called 'free love' treaty..."

So she showed a smile with some shadows, showing a little devilish nature, "Of course, if you behave too freely and go too far, you will be bitten and killed by me."

In an instant, she changed back to a paralyzed face, as if nothing had happened just now, "Above all, the Disciplinary Committee needs fresh blood, and I also hope..."

"Everyone can come and be a 'warrior' once."

The result was unexpectedly good, attracting many people.

After reviewing some documents and putting them aside, Rui left the task of nurturing newcomers to her sister Kaori as usual, then yawned and went to inspect the school building.

But Kaori's harsh sarcasm towards her is indispensable, but the newcomers she taught are all good.

"Open the pool?"

"That's right... the boys and Matsuoka came to ask me to open the swimming pool..." Teacher Tianfang showed a embarrassed look, "Student Tianhai is also a member of the student union after all, and he is also very familiar with Yuan, can you How about asking...?"

"This." Rui blinked, remembering Mina Yaya's explanation to her before, "I agreed a long time ago."

"Hey! ——But student Tianhai arbitrarily..."

"It's not arbitrariness." Rui smiled, "Chairman Yuan and I have already explained it to me. After all, Iwatobi's swimming team's results last summer were also good, so opening the pool early to recruit new students is completely useless. Question."

Teacher Tianfang also seemed relieved: "Then I'll go and answer those children..."

Then came the citizen swimming competition.

"Huh—?! Sister Ruyi, you're here too!" Seeing Ruyi taking off her coat to reveal her swimsuit in shock, Matsuoka Jiang stammered, "Ah...that...what... Has Rui-san signed up too?"

"Yeah." It's almost half of the spring now, not to mention that it's not in the open air, even if you only wear a swimsuit inside and another outside, you won't feel cold.

"I applied for freestyle." Rui said pretending to be serious, "It's for the women's team."

"Then I'll be sure later—let everyone cheer for you!" Matsuoka Jiang suddenly became interested, "I don't know how big a gap Ruyi sister can make with other people~"

"No, my speed is completely different from the group of boys warming up there, don't confuse it, hey!"

Nanase Haruka, who had just picked up her swimming goggles and was about to go to the men's locker room, sneezed involuntarily.

Sniffing, Nanase Haruka tilted her head, and walked to the men's locker room with a puzzled expression.

"What's more... I couldn't catch up with Minister Mikoshiba even if I swam with all my strength..."

"Minister Mikoshiba is a boy, boy! Rui-san is already swimming very fast!" Matsuoka said with a heartbroken face, "Woo... Rui-san's body line is very beautiful."

"... Oh." Ruyi put her foot on the guardrail of the auditorium, pressing her leg.

"...Well, that's exactly what I said."

"Ah, Haruka-senpai!" Matsuoka exclaimed, "Didn't Haruka-senpai go to the locker room to change into a swimsuit!"

"Because I heard something interesting..." Haruka Nanase said expressionlessly, "So I turned back."

"..."

"Then I'll wait in the auditorium to watch your game~" Matsuoka smiled, shaking his purple ponytail, "See you later!"

But speaking of it... Nanase Haruka, can you stop saying something out of moral integrity, please!

"What's more, there is still some time before the men's freestyle competition."

"... Nanase, you are a gentleman (hen) person (tai)!"

She followed Nanase Haruka towards the locker room... because the women's locker room is next door to the men's locker room.

"I don't think so." Nanase Haruka paused, "What's more...it's instinctive..."

"Don't think I can't do anything to you because you were a patient before!" Hey!

Ruyi raised her eyebrows, puffed her cheeks angrily and approached him, stood on tiptoe, and poked his forehead with the index finger of her right hand, "Your brain should not be burnt out, right?"

"Thanks to you, it's fine now." Nanase Haruka replied flatly.

"But the current Rui doesn't look happy at all."

Rui was stunned, and forgot to take back her hand, which directly caused her to be grabbed by Nanase Haruka's arm.

"Don't mind the past..."

Nanase Haruka's always extremely indifferent face showed a sensual expression.

Rui was stunned for a moment, and there was even a flash of tears in her eyes, but she still gritted her teeth and broke away from Nanase Haruka's hand.

After moving his wrist a little bit, and feeling his body warmed up by the warm-up, Rui gave the order to dismiss the guest lightly: "Haruka, it's time for you to go to the competition, Rin Matsuoka is still waiting for you."

Obviously it is rare to call him by his name, but now it sounds like...

The watery light in Nanase Haruka's eyes dimmed. He pursed his lips and said nothing, then turned to the right and opened the door of the men's locker room.

Looking at his back, Zongsuke's back that appeared in his eyes seemed to overlap with his back.

Ruyi watched his back disappear behind the door, her nose was sour, and the dense water mist suddenly covered the front view, and finally the water mist cooled down and slipped from the corners of her eyes.Powerlessly covering her face with her hands, she cried silently, but now no one came out to comfort her.

The hallway was silent, no one passed by at all.

"Nanase Haruka, you idiot!..."

"If you say something like that again, you will die!..."

"It would be great if you could say more of these things..."

It's only the last point, and you can completely tear down my psychological defense——!

Even though it's still a little bit close, I can totally fall in love with you! ——

"The women's 100-meter freestyle competition is about to start, please speed up and change clothes."

The voice on the radio is as emotionless and undulating as a machine.

"Repeat again..."

**********

When I was standing with them at the Iwatobi Swimming Club, I saw the person behind the huge glass window in the reception room...

Ruyi was dumbfounded and didn't recover for a long time.

"Hey... Sister Ruyi, where are you going?" Seeing that she was in a rush, Ye Yuezhu couldn't help asking curiously.

"I saw an acquaintance... excuse me today!" Rui said lightly, and then bowed slightly apologetically, "I'm sorry, Mr. Sasabe."

"Where is there, you are welcome to come here to play anytime!" Sasabe laughed a few times and waved to her.

"um. Thank you."

"Zongsuke... Zongsuke!——" Zongsuke had long legs, and there was a little difference in height between the two of them. If Rui didn't run with all her strength, she wouldn't be able to catch up.

"I've seen it, your freestyle competition at the citizen competition." Yamazaki Sousuke seemed to have expected that she would catch up this time, and deliberately slowed down his pace.

With a slight lowering of his eyes, he could touch the sight of Rui who rushed to him, and he moved his gaze away without any trace, "Your swimming is unblocked."

"Yes." Rui answered firmly this time, "It's all because of him."

"He..." Yamazaki Sousuke understood the meaning of her words in the blink of an eye, and then hooked the corners of his lips mockingly, "Then what do you mean by catching up now? You want to show me that Nanase is better than me." How good were you at that time?"

"That's not the case." Rui smiled relievedly, "You declared earlier that relays and the like are just slowing things down, and swimming alone is enough...but now."

"If you meet Rin Matsuoka, maybe he will let you see him."

"A view you've never seen before."

"I don't need to bet with you." Yamazaki Zongsuke stared at her side face for a while, and then smiled lightly, "You have changed, and this is also the change that Nanase guy brought about."

"However, whether I accept it or not is another matter." Yamazaki Sousuke stretched out his clenched fist to her, "Why, stop saying something to welcome me, you were not very good at saying it before."

"Pfft... no, didn't you say it before, Zongsuke." Rui also chuckled now, stretched out her clenched fist, and touched his fist lightly.

"Songsuke, welcome to Yanyuan."

"Ah... I'm back."

Even if they are no longer the lovers of the past, they are still bosom friends now, and forever bosom friends.

As Nanase Haruka said, it would be really good for her to let go of everything, at least she is very comfortable now.

There shouldn't be any burden on my heart now.

But Rui was still wrong, because she simply underestimated how much influence Nanase Haruka would have on her.
