Jiawang Swimming Pool (VII)
"What you said makes sense, but I don't have enough authority." The spherical man stopped, supporting his head with one hand and turning a pen with the other.
"Then..." Xu Wei's brain started working rapidly.
"Lend me some money?"
“You can work part-time.”
One person and one ball spoke at the same time.
Xu Wei touched his nose awkwardly, feeling quite ashamed.
The ball-shaped man ignored her talk of borrowing money and pointed to the swimming pool outside with a pen: "Part-time lifeguard, daily salary of fifty."
"Fifty?!" Xu Wei seemed to have heard something incredible.
"Fifty... isn't that too little?" He glanced at the other person's face, but couldn't tell anything, so he could only continue, "Fifty for a whole day's work, less than one dollar an hour. Isn't this exploiting the workers?"
The spherical man who thought the other party would be satisfied: "......"
Xu·Poor but want to protect their own labor rights·Unemployed·Wei: "Besides, there are six of us. It's not easy for one person to provide food and drink for such a large family. Can you raise it a little? Or are there other high-paying jobs?"
The ball-shaped man raised his hand and counted: "Seventy, I can't do more than that."
Xu Wei immediately bowed to the ball-shaped man with a smile: "Thank you, on behalf of our entire team, I thank you."
Before I could say anything, I was urged to fill out the part-time job form, and I had to fill out two copies.
"Your venue is so big, one more lifeguard like me is definitely not enough. I won't be greedy, so I'll call another pillar of the family to maintain the safety of the swimming pool!" Xu Wei leaned on the door and smiled sweetly at the inside.
The spherical person has mixed feelings.
"Bye, Miss Referee. See you at the game~"
With a new way to make money, Xu Wei became more energetic. He first went to the swimming pool to pick up Lu Fanye and claim the part-time job. Then he made sure that the competition and the part-time job did not conflict. Finally, he started his new job with great enthusiasm.
I don’t know if it’s because the spherical people gave them a break, but the lifeguards here don’t need to sit on the lifeguard chair and stare at the swimming pool all the time. Instead, it’s more like handling “conflicts” and disputes.
In response to this, Xu Wei copied the routine of the lifeguard he had seen at the beginning: if kids fought in the children's pool and bit off their hands or feet, he would cooperate with the parents to return the lost limbs to the owner; if a corpse suddenly floated up in the water, he would use a long pole to poke it to the shore and then find an empty corner to dump the body; if there was an argument, he would squat on the side and use a long pole to stop both parties and wait for them to calm down. If they could not calm down, he would follow the second step.
Generally, there are only three situations. Of course, the two of them were very mentally prepared for the step of moving the corpse. As the number of times they moved the corpse increased, they became numb from the initial nausea and discomfort.
After a whole day of hard work, the competition still hadn't started, causing Brother Fan and his friends who were practicing in the swimming pool to go ashore every once in a while, for fear that the sudden whistle would melt them.
Until 7:30 in the evening.
Except for a few unclear creatures, everything was the same as the warm-up match. After knowing the Shadow Man's tactics, Lu Fanye won the first match without any surprise.
Brother Fan was extremely happy as he touched the medal he received from the ball-shaped man.
In the second game, they had new opponents. Since Lu Fanye was exhausted and needed a rest, the other two people who could swim did not express their willingness to join the game, so they had to give up.
In the third game, one of the opponents had swollen eyes.
It was still wearing its green jumpsuit, with its hands spread out ostentatiously, revealing webbed fingers.
"It can't really be a frog." Xu Wei said in a low voice.
The athletes took their positions, and with swollen eyes, they chose the second lane next to Lu Fanye. They also smiled provocatively at everyone, which made Xu Wei feel a little uneasy.
Ready, whistle.
The four sounds of entering the water were almost identical.
The swollen eyes were shaped just like the frog, and within a few breaths of entering the water they were far ahead of the others.
This group of contestants were all very strong and except for their swollen eyes, they all swam equally.
After swimming past the midfield, he stopped far away with swollen eyes, then stood upright in the water, watching the people behind him rush forward one by one, passing him.
The puffy-eyed face still had a provocative, malicious smile, like a clam with a round belly that had been soaked in ink.
Xu Wei clenched his hands nervously, his nails digging into the flesh, and ran with the group of people.
After the last one swam past its swollen eyes, it moved, lowered its head and dived into the water. Only its blurry and slender body could be seen moving freely under the water.
The first scream came from the last person, who was just a passerby in the swimming pool. He stopped in the pool, holding his stomach, and blood spread from his abdomen, dyeing the surroundings red.
The continuous screams excited the spectators by the pool so much that they couldn't wait to join in.
There is only one person left.
After hearing the first scream, Lu Fanye tried his best to overtake the person in front of him and temporarily took the lead.
Fifty meters is not a long distance. Even though the swollen eyes were killing people behind him, he still stretched out his hand to touch the cold tile at the finish line.
Beneath me, a dark green figure swam quietly over, raising its sickle-like flippers.
The dark red blood spread out and was swept everywhere by the sudden surge of waves in the swimming pool.
"ah!!!"
The screams did not come from the victim of the hunt. He fell into the water with swollen eyes and his face covered. The thin stream of blood melted into the huge pool of water and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Xu Wei clenched her right fist and fell into the water again. This time she was mentally prepared to face the giant monster again.
But this time, warm hands quickly picked her up and carried her ashore.
Xu Wei looked at the palm-sized stick in his palm. He had no idea what material it was made of. It was very short, and the tip was jagged. It was taken from a broken plastic bucket when transporting the floating corpse.
The handle of the plastic bucket was broken, but it could be pulled out from the holes on both sides. Xu Wei hid the shorter part for self-defense and also secretly polished the broken end. He didn't expect it to come in handy at this time.
He had been on guard against the Swollen Eyes for a long time. Since it could open a shop in a dungeon, its threat level was naturally much higher than that of the Shadow Man. When he noticed that it stopped, Xu Wei clenched his short stick.
When Lu Fanye’s hand touched the finish line and he completely stopped, that was the moment when his swollen eyes thought that his prey had relaxed due to joy—
It loves this the most, crushing its prey's hope completely when it thinks it has been reborn. In the blink of an eye, the joy has not yet disappeared, and fear and disbelief are hanging on its pale face.
This experience is so wonderful that I love it so much that I tremble with excitement when I think about it.
But it didn't know that when it jumped out of the water and prepared to give its prey the final blow, there was someone also waiting for it with full concentration, panting.
Xu Wei was extremely alert. Her hands holding the short stick kept shaking, her heart was about to jump out of her chest, and the surge of adrenaline even made her feel a little dizzy.
Then, just like on the night of the qualifying round, he rushed over with all his might, used his whole body weight and the impact force to force it back into the water, and poked it tirelessly with the short stick many times.
I don’t know if it poked its eyes, but Xu Wei hit it hard on the face several times, and then while it was covering its face, he quickly pounced on Lu Fanye.
The swollen eyeball would definitely not let her go, so she could only hope that Lu Fanye would react quickly and pull her ashore.
Fortunately, Lu Fanye was as fast as lightning and caught her almost as she let go.
