"Well, wait, you two help me up, I'll climb straight up from here."
"Why do you have to climb up? Can't you just go straight from the ladder?"
Li Qiang asked Du Chen in confusion.
"Nonsense! Climbing the ladder is too slow! I have to take several steps and can't even take care of my butt. How fast can I climb up from here? And you two should cover my pants while you're holding me up!"
Du Chen explained to Li Qiang, asking him to climb up step by step and revealing the opening at the back. Du Chen felt ashamed to face people. If he climbed up from here, as long as he moved quickly, no one would notice him, and Li Qiang and Zhao Pengfei's hands could still shield him.
"That makes sense. Then you can climb up from here!"
Li Qiang looked at the ladder and saw someone climbing up. It seemed that what Du Chen said made sense.
"Alright then, I'll count to one, two, three and then I'll climb straight up. You two, remember to hold me up, and remember to block the opening for me!"
Du Chen looked at the shore in front of him, which was higher than himself, and gave Zhao Pengfei and Li Qiang many instructions, hoping for success.
"Okay, we're ready!"

"Okay, then I'm ready to go up!"
Du Chen took a deep breath, placed his hands on the shore to gather strength, and waited to get ashore.

After counting to three, Du Chen used his hands and feet to jump upwards at the same time. At the same time, he felt Li Qiang and Zhao Pengfei pulling him upwards with four hands. Du Chen jumped out of the water, put one leg on the shore and climbed up with force. Then he heard a girl talking behind him.
"Classmate, this is very dangerous. You can't do this. You have to go up the ladder..."
Li Qiang and Zhao Pengfei turned their heads and looked back at the same time when they heard the sound, completely forgetting what they were doing with their hands. Li Qiang's left thumb happened to hook the opening of Du Chen's swimming trunks, and Du Chen had just tried to climb up when the accident happened.
“It’s over…”
Three words played repeatedly in Du Chen's head.
