Chapter 83: The Confession Letter in the Shoe Locker

"These girls are so shallow!" Ike Kanji said unhappily.

Sudo Ken nodded again and again. He believed his own build was not worse than Yuto's, so why was not a single girl cheering for him?

Koenji Rokusuke, who stood on the starting block beside Yuto, also had a good physique. However, his was the bulky, muscular type. With too many prominent muscles, it lacked a certain aesthetic balance.

Naturally, it could not compare to Yuto's streamlined figure, the kind that made the girls' hearts race.

"Shimizu-boy, your undefeated legend will be ended by me," Koenji said as if stating a fact, his expression full of confidence and pride.

Yuto merely smiled and did not answer him. He had heard lines like that far too many times.

Every time the club seniors agreed to wager points with him, they would always tell him he was definitely going to lose. But victory and defeat were not decided by words. They depended on actual results.

The girls were cheering enthusiastically for Yuto.

The muscular teacher raised his hand and shouted, "The fifty-meter freestyle race is about to begin. Both sides, take your positions!"

On the starting blocks, Yuto and Koenji lowered into their starting postures. The moment the muscular teacher blew the whistle, both of them sprang forward at once.

Koenji's entry into the water sent up a large splash, fierce and wild enough to startle people. Yuto's entry, by contrast, was elegant and clean, barely disturbing the surface.

Once in the water, both of them swam at an astonishing speed. The students of Class D could not help showing stunned expressions, because their freestyle speed was far too fast.

Even the muscular teacher in charge of swimming class was shocked by their speed. Fortunately, he recovered in time and focused on the stopwatch in his hand.

Watching the two touch the pool wall one after another, the muscular teacher could not help sucking in a breath. These two were ridiculously fast.

"Shimizu-boy, you really are impressive."

Yuto turned his head and looked at Koenji in lane one. "You're not bad either. No wonder you dared to bet against me in swimming."

Koenji showed a proud expression, then asked, "So, who reached the finish first?"

"I'm not sure." Yuto shook his head.

Both Yuto and Koenji had focused entirely on swimming. Since the difference between them was not large, neither of them knew who had arrived first.

Yuto placed his hands on the pool's edge and hoisted himself out in one effortless motion.

As crystalline droplets of water slid down his toned body, many of the girls blushed and swallowed hard, their hearts racing.

Kikyo licked her lips, tearing her gaze away from Yuto. She turned to the muscular teacher, her voice eager. "Sensei, who won?!"

"It was Koenji, right? I think he was faster!" one boy shouted.

In truth, he had no idea who was faster. He simply did not want Shimizu Yuto, who was so popular with the girls, to win.

The girls who supported Yuto immediately objected.

"Nonsense! Shimizu was clearly faster!"

"It was Shimizu," the muscular teacher announced loudly. "Shimizu's time was 23.01 seconds. Koenji's time was 23.22 seconds!"
