The Most Random System-Chapter 705 - 363: If Ahead Lies Hell, Would You Still Press Forward Without Hesitation? (3)
Speaking of this really gets me mad, the woman reached out and lightly swatted the kid on his head, saying angrily.
"This is actually understandable," Zeng Ziang chuckled after hearing this, "especially since kids have poor self-control, it's pretty normal not to be able to hold it once they're in the water."
Lin Li nodded in agreement with Zeng Ziang's explanation: "Indeed, there's no need to hit him like that; maybe it's better to teach him to pee before getting into the pool…"
Two warm-hearted big brothers!
The originally crying little kid, after hearing this, had a glow in his eyes, nodded repeatedly while sniffling, and started moving silently toward the two.
Gazing at his mother.
Auntie, we're not that close, don't call me son!
However, the woman's expression gradually turned blank as she looked at Lin Li and Zeng Ziang, then calmly said: "He didn't pee in the pool, he peed on the platform."
Lin Li and Zeng Ziang froze for a moment: "Uh? What? What do you mean by 'peed on the platform'?"
The corners of the woman's mouth twitched: "He was standing at the poolside peeing into the pool."
Lin Li, Zeng Ziang: "..."
The woman smiled slightly: "Oh, by the way, there was another little kid below."
Lin Li, Zeng Ziang: "?"
The woman held a forced smile: "He even specifically aimed, shooting it all over the other kid."
Lin Li, Zeng Ziang: "(;☉_☉)?"
Silence.
Silence.
Lin Li and Zeng Ziang exchanged a glance.
Nodded.
Zeng Ziang spoke seriously: "Auntie, you can't beat a child to death like this; Auntie, have you played badminton? Use your strength like this and you can make someone fly."
Lin Li also spoke solemnly: "Or you could consider using some leverage, like Auntie, I can lend you this swimming cap to use as a whip, guaranteeing you can whip him until his skin is broken."
Little kid: "(;☉_☉)?"
F*ck, what kind of plague punishment is this!
The little kid, who was previously trying to find a new family between the two, was startled and hid back behind his mother's back.
Mommy mommy~ you still love me~ right~
...
It's true that talented people emerge in every generation, leading the scene for hundreds of years.
Even Lin Li couldn't help but feel somewhat ashamed.
When I was a kid, I was way too well-behaved, letting Wu Min live an easy life.
Listening to the screams coming from behind, Lin Li and Zeng Ziang felt as if they were listening to heavenly music, and their ears temporarily cleared.
This is no ordinary mischief; some heavy-handed measures are necessary.
Needs a spanking.
"Brother, you haven't swum in a while, do you want to try the shallow end first?"
This isn't a competition or training pool, so the left side is shallow water, about 1.2 meters deep, where most people can stand, and you can see many adults or kids learning to swim there.
On the right is the deep end, probably around 2.2 meters deep, where Lin Li can easily stand and reach over the water surface.
"No need." Zeng Ziang glanced at the shallow end but seemed to see a kid peeing at the side, so he waved his hand with a smile:
"Once you learn swimming, you won't forget it, and the buoyancy is totally different in shallow and deep water; starting directly from the deep end is fine."
"Remember to do your warm-up exercises," Lin Li reminded with a nod, "don't cramp or something while swimming."
But since there are lifeguards, there's not much worry.
"Got it, I'm aware of that." Zeng Ziang nodded. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖
So the two started warming up by the poolside.
"Splash——"
"Splash——"
People continually jumped off the diving board, diving into the water.
——At the starting edge of the pool, although it lacked the diving platforms common in swimming competitions, it had a diving board.
This diving board isn't high, probably a standard one-meter practice platform.
Set up here to entertain guests, adding fun, not for athlete training.
People who enjoy playing here the most are quite polarized—elderly folks and kids.
Only one meter high doesn't allow for any fancy tricks; most just dive in feet or head first, or simply plunge in, creating splashes like the Philippine bomb fish team.
But it's all about having fun, filled with laughter.
After warming up, Zeng Ziang queued beside the diving board.
"Using the diving board as a starting platform is pretty fun; I'll start from here too and swim a lap to try it out."
"Lin Li, watch me do something cool in a bit." Facing Lin Li with a smile, Zeng Ziang turned around while waiting:
"I've also tried diving a bit myself; I'm sure I can dive better than them. Their dives score zero in my eyes; while I can't dive without splashes, I can definitely get high scores by keeping it small."
"For diving, the smaller the splash with the same action, the higher the score, right?" Lin Li asked.
"Yes." Zeng Ziang nodded.
Lin Li: "Then why not dive towards the poolside, wouldn't that just ensure no splash at all?"
Lin Li even tapped the ground with his foot after saying it, pondering:
"Jumping onto the side from a one-meter board does require some bounce, but from a three-meter or ten-meter platform, changing the landing spot to the shore is quite simple, isn't it?"
Zeng Ziang: "...(;☉_☉)?"
Zeng Ziang fell silent.
"Although… there doesn't seem to be anything in international diving competitions' rules prohibiting divers from landing on the poolside..." Zeng Ziang mused:
"But Lin Li, while there wouldn't be splashes, what about brain matter?"
"Moreover, even if brain matter doesn't splash high, any broken body parts falling into the water will still splash, resulting in point deductions."
"Lastly, Lin Li! Can you please not treat us divers as disposable items!!"
It seemed Zeng Ziang went through the process of doubting Lin Li, understanding Lin Li, and considering Lin Li a fool.
Lin Li shrugged, nodding honestly: "True."
"Alright, I'm starting now." As the people in front finished diving, it was Zeng Ziang's turn.
He stepped onto the slightly wobbling board, turned back, and saluted with two fingers at his temple towards Lin Li, then started his last stretch.
Lin Li moved to the side, looking rather expectant.
Finished stretching, Zeng Ziang mimicked a professional diver's start, raising his arms above his head, taking a deep breath, slightly bouncing the board, timing it right, and then his knees thrust, propelling him high into the air.
A perfect parabola appeared before Lin Li, displaying the beauty of mathematics vividly, with the swim cap breaking the water first, followed by his whole body entering the pool, with significantly smaller splashes compared to others.
F*ck, Brother Ziang, you got it.
Quite impressive, Lin Li nodded.
Got to add that to my [Mimicry] skill set.
Zeng Ziang, as expected, used inertia for an underwater thrust, then alternated his arms smoothly in a swimming motion, moving like enjoying silky-smooth Dove chocolate.
Wait a minute.
Lin Li: "(;☉_☉)?"
Just about to dive in after him, Lin Li halted, eyes narrowing.
Only to see something floating up where Zeng Ziang just dove in.
Not Zeng Ziang, he wouldn't die that quickly.
It was… a pair of swim trunks.
Looked quite familiar.
Having stared at them earlier, Lin Li recognized whose they were at first glance.
Wait! Wait! Wait! Bridge, wait!
Lin Li's eyes moved forward in shock and disbelief.
He saw beneath the water's surface, Zeng Ziang's golden body twisting enchantingly and smoothly like a mermaid, seemingly unaware of what had happened.
Lin Li didn't know what expression he was wearing, but roughly, perhaps, possibly… it was shock.
"..."
"..."
"Bloody hell!!"
When Lin Li snapped out of it, realizing many other guests were in front of Zeng Ziang, he yelled loudly, sprinted forward, chasing the mermaid-like figure with all his might.
Wet footsteps pattered on the edge of the pool.
But nobody noticed the noise over Lin Li's ear-piercing roar——
"Brother Ziang! Your swim trunks fell off! Brother Ziang! Your swim trunks fell off!!!"
"Swim trunks! Swim trunks! Driver! Stop the car! Your swim trunks haven't boarded! Stop! Wait! Please, wait before you swim! Ahead lies Hell, it's Hell!"
"Zi!——ang!——Brother!——"
