Chapter 77: Tom's Sorrow
The arrival of Vice Admiral He gave the guests of the tavern a lively experience, broadened their horizons, and gave them more topics to talk about. In the end, it slightly boosted the sales of the drinks, so Zhang Da was quite happy.
But Tom was unhappy because he took out the iron but neither ironed the clothes nor hit anyone.
Unhappy Tom wants to go surfing and fishing.
Zhang Da also waved his hand and agreed. Let’s go to the beach this afternoon. Those who want to surf can surf, those who want to fish can fish, and those who want to swim can swim.
This decision was unanimously approved by everyone in the pub.
As for the afternoon exercise task, swimming can be used as physical training. Back then, Zhang was also an expert in doggy paddle swimming.
So, Tom changed into his swimsuit in three seconds, found a , and had a complete set of fishing tools.
"Don't be in a hurry. We need to make some preparations first." Zhang Da also smiled and touched Tom the cat's head. In fact, he was a little curious about where Tom hid his tail when he was putting on his clothes.
Tom tilted his head, a question mark appeared on his head. What else is he preparing for? He is already ready!
"For example, I don't have swimming trunks, so I have to go buy some." Zhang Da also turned around and asked, "Do you two have swimsuits?"
Altria and Rui Mengmeng shook their heads. They never thought of buying swimsuits when they bought clothes before.
"Then let's buy them all together." Zhang Da also counted the things he needed to bring on his fingers:
"Then you can also bring a barbecue grill, some drinks, fruits, ice cubes, etc.... Well, before the big refrigerator is used to freeze my assets, let it continue to play its role as a refrigerator."
Altria raised her hand: "Um... Tatsuya, actually, I can't swim."
"Ah? But don't you have the 'blessing of the lake fairy' so you can run on the water?" Rui Mengmeng asked in surprise.
"It is because of this blessing that I can fight in water without having to learn how to swim, that's why," Artoria explained.
Rui Mengmeng seemed to have discovered the blind spot: "Then can you take a bath?"
Altria nodded, "Of course, I can enter the water if I want."
"Is that so?" Rui Mengmeng suddenly realized.
Zhang Da also concluded in his mind that the blessing was not a passive aura, but an active skill that could be turned on and off as needed.
"Then it would be a good idea to take this opportunity to learn. Hmm...how about I buy you a swimming ring?"
Altria nodded . Even if she didn't learn to swim, she was quite interested in going to the beach, but she would not take the initiative to ask for such a request.
…
After everything was discussed, everyone packed up their things and rode their bubble bikes out.
I heard that the bubble car recently launched a new model that can move forward without pedaling, which is probably equivalent to a hover motorcycle. I just don’t know what the power is. I can go and check it out some other day.
When choosing a swimsuit, Zhang Da picked one casually and bought a pair of swimming goggles as well - he was the type of person who couldn't open his eyes in the water.
"Does Tom want to buy a new set?" Zhang Da also asked.
Tom shook his head. He quite liked his red swimsuit.
However, Tom walked around the store, then held a water gun and gave a flattering smile in front of Zhang Daye.
Of course Zhang Daye bought it for him, and in the end he bought three more.
After waiting for a while with Tom, Rui Mengmeng and Altria came out of the changing room.
Rui Mengmeng chose a very conservative one-piece black swimsuit, but even so she still felt a little embarrassed, as she was too shy to show off her good figure .
Altria didn't have so many concerns, or perhaps she didn't care at all, and chose a white two-piece swimsuit.
Zhang Da didn't know what the specific style was. He just looked at Altria and thought maliciously: She didn't choose a children's swimsuit...
"What's wrong?" Altria noticed Zhang Daye's gaze and asked.
"Ah, it's okay." Zhang Da also felt guilty for being caught saying bad things about someone behind their back, so he said, "It's pretty good."
"Thank you." Altria smiled and accepted the compliment calmly.
Everything was ready, and everyone except Tom put on their coats and rode to the beach.
In order to familiarize myself with the environment, I often choose different routes when jogging in the morning. Therefore, I run all over the island, so choosing a suitable beach is not a problem.
I don’t know if a beach like the one in the Chabaoti Archipelago without sand can still be called a beach.
Tom held the surfboard and looked into the distance, but failed to see the big waves he was expecting. He had to put down the surfboard, do some warm-up exercises, and prepare to swim in the water.
Be sure to warm up before swimming to prevent cramps, and even Tom will subconsciously follow this.
Zhang Da was also responsible for parking the car and tidying up things, allowing Rui Mengmeng and Altria to warm up and go into the water first.
Spread out the picnic blanket, take out the large refrigerator from the inventory, put out various foods and drinks, and then put out beach chairs and parasols. Although there is no beach, the atmosphere must be created.
By the time Zhang Da had packed up and started warming up, Tom had already jumped into the water with a "splash" and started swimming in the sea using a very standard breaststroke posture.
Rui Mengmeng tested the water temperature with her feet in a normal way, then slowly went into the water.
Altria was amazing. She put on the swimming ring first, then slowly walked to the surface of the sea: "Woooo ...
Altria let out a scream that she would never let out under normal circumstances, and her whole body sank rapidly, floating on the sea with the help of a swimming ring.
When Artoria just entered the water, her style seemed to have changed. Her ahoge was drooping softly, and her upper body was lying on the swimming ring, as if she had lost her dream. She looked a little silly and cute.
Zhang Da also finished warming up and jumped into . If we compare his diving posture with Tom's, one is the Philippine diving team and the other is the Dream Team.
Tom from the Dream Team put his arms behind his head and swam to Zhang Daye on his back using only his legs to swim, ready to watch his performance.
Zhang Da also confidently showed off his doggy paddle. As his physique has been getting stronger since coming here, he is very fast and has good endurance. He feels that he may be able to beat the world champion by using the doggy paddle.
After swimming a lap, Zhang Da confidently asked Altria if she wanted to learn.
However, although Altria looked silly at this moment, she was not silly at all. She shook her little head so much that even her hair could hardly keep up. "I always feel that it would be better for me to learn the normal freestyle from Mengmeng, or learn the breaststroke from Tom."
In other words, ugly rejection.
Zhang Da was also hit hard and retreated, and then he was ridiculed by Tom:
“Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh~”
However, Tom, who was amused by Zhang Daye's swimming style, did not feel happy for long. He screamed and jumped directly from the sea to the shore.
"Ahhhh~" Tom screamed as he took a crab off his butt and looked at the crab angrily.
So the crab swung its claws and clamped them on Tom's nose.
“Ahhhh~Ahhhhhh…”
"Puchi..." Zhang Da, who was originally a little depressed, was immediately amused by Tom. It turned out that where Tom is there is never a lack of joy.
