Vol 3 Prologue (1/2)
Prologue
He once heard that the ocean looks blue because the sun’s red wavelength light is absorbed by the water, and the reets scattered at the bottom of the water That’s why, the scenery inside the ocean looks blue, same as the color of the sky
Inside of such a blue scenery, a circle of light falls down It was the sunlight—— however it also resenized it
Was that his mother’s, Fuyufu’s, Miharu’s, or Haruha’s?
Or could it be…
That hen he lost his breath
His body quivers and he pulled his head to the surface Pugh, he released his breath
Kasugai Yuu freed himself from the torture-like sensation and took a deep breath of thick air on the surface
“Fuuhh……”
He regulated his breathing and opened his eyes, what entered his sight was the landscape of a ht This summer-limited outdoor pool is part of the new spacious leisure facilities established under the new residential area tenants project It’s located around 30 to 40 minutes away from Yuu’s house by car
There is a broad variation of users, and aroups stand out the most, however there are quite a few students like Yuu
While floating on the 50- conspicuous with her dyed bangs, she is one of his friends
“Senpai, we just arrived and you already dived in?”
Kanna Sakura A girl wearing a sporty swimsuit akin to an athletic club’s uniform asked him from the poolside
Yuu wiped his face with his hand
“I was accli my body to the water”
“Hmmmn……”
Looking uninterested, Sakura kicked the pool of water in front of her Frolass-like drops of water falls down
“What a beautiful pool I never knew such a place exist”
Feeling ticklish over other people’s noises, Sakura’s behavior contradicts her self-proclaimed delinquent nature
“The last time I was here, this place was a wreck”
Back when he was still in elementary school, he and his childhood friend, Kodzuchi Fuyufu along with their friend came to this pool At every corner of the place, you could spot mold all over the place It was a rundown public pool But thanks to the renovation, now it gives of the atmosphere for a little theme park
It is now a perfect place to bring small children on a cloudless summer day
Precisely because of that, Haji everyone who happen to be in the house at that time
“Kugi yet?”
Yuu asked as he climbed up Shortly after they arrived by Hajie clothes—— Yuu was the only roup here
“Hajime-san just died somewhere”
Sakura pointed with her chin Looking at the pointed direction, he sees Haji her body She earing a pair of big cartoonish glasses so he can’t see her expression, but for a young woman, not to mention, one ears a swiraceful It only has been a short while after their arrival, but she already fell asleep She did look busy recently
Let’s leave that thing alone until we go back…… he thought inside his head, and proceeded to look for the others
——And, the moment he turned around
A cold sensation hit his forehead
“Ahahahaha Daddy, headshot!”
A kid holding a water gun approached hi
It was a girl, who appeared to be around 8 years old, wearing a fitting cute one-piece She tied her long blonde hair into a ponytail
Yuu rapidly opened and closed his eyes to get rid of the water, then rested his hand on top of that girl’s head
“Haruha…… didn’t I tell you not to shoot others without warning?”
The girl—— Haruha, wholes… as if she’s revealing a fun secret, she shows hiun in her hands
“It’s safe Haruha’s gun is a water gun after all”
“I can see that”
That water gun was an ite district a few days ago It was a cheap clear green plastic toy, and Haruha loved it so s it with her every time she takes a bath and shoots it all over the place (it seems)
“Even though it’s a gun, no one dies It’s aame everyone dies”
Under the summer sun, Haruha widened her eyes out of excitement
Coht as he squatted down to match Haruha’s eye level
“But there are a lot of people in this place, so youIf there is a person who doesn’t know the difference, they will be surprised right?”
