Chapter 363 – It Seems That The End is Near (1)

“There aren’t many people here at all . ”

After putting on his swimming trunks and walking out of the men’s changing room, Chen Yu stood in front of the pool and looked around for possible “beauties . ”

“There aren’t many permanent residents in the New District yet, so it’s normal for there to be few people here,” a young man lying lazily in a rocking chair nearby said . “Moreover, the ticket prices here are absurdly high . The residents from other districts would rather visit their local swimming complexes instead . Only a fool would come here for a swim . ”

Chen Yu: “…”

“Oh, my bad . I wasn’t talking about you specifically . I was referring to myself as well . Anyone who comes here is a fool . ”

“…”

“Onii-chan!” Not long after, Chen Erke, who had changed into a swimsuit, rushed out of the women’s changing room and threw herself onto Chen Yu . “Teach me how to swim . ”

“Don’t you know how to swim?”

“I forgot . ”

“I’ll find a coach for you, then . There should be one here . ”

“No!” Hugging onto Chen Yu’s legs, Chen Erke shook her head and said, “I want you to teach me!”

“S-Stop rubbing your head against me! It hurts!”

“Teach me!”

“Fine, fine, fine! I’ll teach you! Now get away from me first,” Chen Yu said, pushing Chen Erke away . After helping his little sister tie her hair, he said, “First, do your warm-ups . Don’t go getting cramps once you get into the water . ”

Hearing this, Chen Erke promptly executed a series of taekwondo moves . While panting, she then asked, “Is that enough?”

“Whatever . Head inside first, then . ”

“Inside where?”

“Inside the pool!”

“You have to save me if I choke on water, then . ”

“Rest assured . ” Chen Yu waved his hand nonchalantly .

With his current superhuman physique, he could effortlessly pull out a child like Chen Erke .

“I’ll go in, then…” While holding onto the handrail by the pool, Chen Erke tentatively poked her feet into the water . “Not bad . It’s not cold . ”

Afterward, she jumped into the water with a “splash” and began awkwardly swimming freestyle .

“Is that your little sister?” The youth seated on the rocking chair asked as he stood up . “She knows how to swim at such a young age?”

“Mhm . I think one of my uncles died from drowning in the past, so my dad taught us how to swim since young . ”

“What about that even younger kid? Is she your little sister as well?”

“Yes, but she hasn’t learned how to swim yet . ”

“B-But she’s in the water now…”

“In the water?” Startled, Chen Yu hurriedly turned to look at the swimming pool, only to find Chen Sanke floating on the water with her limbs flapping about rapidly .

Meanwhile, Chen Yike, who was holding a leash connected to Chen Sanke’s body in her left hand, happily recorded a video with her phone in her right hand . She then looked at Chen Yu and said, “Brother, look! Third Eldest knows how to doggy-paddle!”

While beating the water with her limbs, Chen Sanke changed her swimming direction and asked in confusion, “What’s a doggy-paddle?”

Stepping forward, Chen Yu took the leash from Chen Yike . He then lightly pulled on the leash, pulling Chen Sanke close to the edge, and asked, “Is it fun?”

“It’s fu—guruguru…” Chen Sanke nodded happily .

“Brother, she’s never learned how to swim before, so how can she swim right away?” Chen Erke, who was leaning against the stairs, asked, frowning .

“She stayed submerged in amniotic fluid for ten months . How can she not know how to swim after coming out?”

“I also stayed there for ten months . Why don’t I know how to swim?”

“As a Pokémon, you can only carry four skills . You must’ve ignored the Swim skill . ”

“Brother, hold my phone for me . I’m going for a swim as well,” Chen Yike said before pushing her phone and a waterproof bag to Chen Yu . She then jumped into the water in a standard posture, creating only a small splash .

“Pal . ” Leaning close toward Chen Yu, the young man asked enviously, “Three little sisters? What’s up with your home?”

“Nothing’s up . Maybe it’s because of the story’s setting . ’

At this time, Xing Biqi approached Chen Yu timidly . After giving the young man beside Chen Yu a polite smile, she handed a bottle of mineral water to Chen Yu and said, “You just ate, so you should rest a bit before you swim . ”

“Bro, d-don’t tell me this is your little sister as well?” The young man was shocked .

“She’s my sister-in-law . ” Chen Erke hurriedly waved her hand, denying the young man’s words in place of Chen Yu . “My sister-in-law is a great person . Sister-in-law, come and play with us!”

The young man: “…”

“Do you know how to swim? Go ahead if you do . ” After accepting the bottled water and taking a sip, Chen Yu pointed at the pool and said, “Take care of Second Eldest for me as well . She has no stamina . Don’t let her choke . ”

“I-I don’t know how to swim…”

“Okay, then . Get into the water and get used to it first . I’ll teach you in a moment . ”

“Okay!”

After nodding happily, the girl grabbed onto the handrail and carefully tentatively herself into the pool .

“B-Bro…” Sourly opening his mouth, the young man asked, “Did you save the world in your past life?”

“I don’t know about my past life, but I did save the world once in this life . ”

After saying so, Chen Yu walked up to the pool and opened the waterproof bag . He then pulled out a bag of toffees, opened the bag, and pulled out a piece . “Third Eldest! Over here! Look what this is!”

Hearing this, Chen Sanke hurriedly paddled toward Chen Yu and looked up . “Candy . ”

“Do you want it?”

“Yes . ”

“Come . Swim in a circle for me,” Chen Yu said, shaking his wrist .

Immediately, Chen Sanke began paddling in a circle .

“Speak like a cat . ”

“Woof, woof!”

“A cat!”

Craning her neck, Chen Sanke pouted, “Meowoo~”

“Again . ”

“Meowoo~”

“Open up . ”

“Ah!”

After tossing the candy into Chen Sanke’s mouth, Chen Yu pulled out another one and said, “Pat your belly . ”

Pat! Pat! Pat! Pat!

“Open up . ”

“Ah…”

…

Simultaneously, numerous black shadows were rapidly moving inside the filtration system underneath the swimming complex .

Buzz, buzz… Buzz, buzz, buzz…

Accompanied by strange, mechanical buzzing sounds, hundreds of infrared rays scanned the area . They then began adjusting their position while receiving information from a satellite .

“Protect… Protect humanity…

“Protect humanity…”

Hiss!

Half a minute later, a scorching laser cut apart a colloidal water pipe . Immediately, the water from the swimming pool above gushed out of the small cavity .

The black shadows in the filtration system dispersed as water began filling the room, leaving behind only a cylindrical, metal object . Once the water level in the room reached sufficiently high levels, the propeller at one end of the cylinder began spinning, propelling the cylinder into the water pipe .

Meanwhile, inside the metal cylinder contained two 9 . 2mm dumdum bullets, and the hammer behind both bullets remained on standby . So long as the cylinder was given the command, it could launch both bullets at any time .

Beep .

Buzz…

A minute after moving along the winding pipeline, the cylinder barged through a metal filter and entered the swimming pool .

“Protect…humanity…”

Meanwhile, high up in the distant atmosphere, a hacked satellite connected with the surveillance system of Jinzhou City’s New District’s swimming complex . Afterward, it issued a series of instructions, redirecting all of the swimming complex’s cameras onto Chen Yu, who was still toying with his little sister beside the swimming pool .

[Entered effective position . ]

…

“This is the last piece! Pat your belly!”

By the swimming pool, Chen Yu ignorantly submerged his feet into the pool while waving the piece of toffee in his hand .

Pat! Pat! Pat!

Chen Sanke stretched out her tongue while patting her reddened belly .

“This is too freaking enviable . ” While sitting on a pool chair, the young man said bitterly, “You’ll definitely get retribution sooner or later . ”

“Huh?” Turning around, Chen Yu asked, “What did you say?”

“N-Nothing…”

“If you want to have a little sister of your own, go adopt one from the country . All you need is your ID card and 15 yuan . ”

The young man: “…”

While smiling, Chen Yu dropped the last toffee into Chen Sanke’s mouth . Just as he was about to hop into the pool, his keen eyes suddenly caught sight of a dark cylinder slowly rising from the water . Two golden dots were also reflected in his eyes…

Bullets?!

Chen Yu’s pupils contracted, and he subconsciously moved the finger sleeve on his middle finger in an attempt to activate the E·I Force Field .

But .

He was already too late .

Creak…

Accompanied by the sounds of springs pulling the trigger, and one of the two cocked hammers struck down accurately at the rear-end of the special dumdum bullet in front of it, detonating the gunpowder inside the bullet .

Bang!!

This was an explosion that surpassed even the detonation of heavy sniper rifle ammo!

The sound of death echoed throughout the swimming complex…

Boom!

Blood, mixed with white fragments, bloomed like a flower of death…
