Chapter 67: The Closeness of Masachika and Alya
One by one, all the students finished their swimming tests. Finally, it was the turn of the female students to swim according to their roll numbers. Just like before, the male students didn't miss the opportunity to watch and evaluate the skills—and appearances—of their female classmates.
Right after all the students completed the 50-meter freestyle swim, Machio blew his whistle to get everyone's attention.
"Great job, everyone! For the rest of the class, you're free to use the pool. But remember, follow the safety rules! No pushing or dunking your friends!" He exclaimed enthusiastically.
"HORAYYYY!!!"
"Thank you, Machio-sensei!"
Cheers of joy immediately erupted from the students, who quickly spread out to various areas of the pool. Some immediately jumped into the pool, creating splashes of water in all directions. Others chose to sit by the edge of the pool, chatting with their friends.
On one side of the pool, Hayasaka Ai—a transfer student from Shuchi'in Academy—was surrounded by several female students from class 2-B. With her blonde hair tied to the side and her friendly demeanor, she seemed very familiar with her new friends despite having only transferred to Ohananomitsu High School a few days ago.
"Hayasaka-san, you really have such great skin! What's your secret?" One of the girls praised.
"Ah, there's no secret. I just use sunscreen regularly, seriously! You can do it too!" Hayasaka replied with a thick gyaru accent.
"But Shuchi'in Academy is an elite school. The beauty treatments must be expensive." Another female student chimed in.
"That depends on the individual!" Hayasaka waved her hand while laughing. "Not everything has to be expensive to be good. I'll tell you some great brands later!"
