Kaguya-sama: Love Is War wants me to turn myself in.

"Don't move." Amamiya Natsuki said sternly, her face fierce. "If you move again, it won't just be a simple kiss."

"..."

Upon hearing this, Komi-kun froze, immediately becoming obedient, but her eyes quickly welled up with mist, clearly showing that she was frightened.

"And you're not allowed to cry." Amamiya Natsuki said sternly, "If you dare to cry, I'll keep kissing you."

"Woo..."

Komi quickly bit her lip, swallowing back her tears with a wronged expression.

"Let's go, let's get out of here first."

Natsuki Amamiya hugged Shoko tightly and walked straight outside.

"Wait, wait a minute..." Komi's voice was anxious, her pretty face pale, clearly very afraid of Amamiya Natsuki, but she mustered up the courage to speak, though her voice was still very weak, "Where is Mommy?"

"Don't worry, Aunt Hideko isn't here. There's no danger. I just wanted you to respond to me," Natsuki Amamiya said gently. "Let's go out first, and then we'll have someone else explain to you."

"..."

A single cricket couldn't affect Natsuki Amamiya's movement speed at all.

Before long, Natsuki Amamiya, carrying Shoko, swam back to the stairwell.

"Come back, come back."

"I see Natsuki-kun!"

"Natsuki-kun is also holding a girl!"

"..."

Upon seeing Natsuki Amamiya appear, the girls all breathed a sigh of relief.

There is also a leader effect in human groups. In dangerous situations, people will instinctively rely on the person who stands up. So, whether we want to admit it or not, Natsuki Amamiya has become everyone's backbone at this moment.

"I am back."

Natsuki Amamiya, carrying glass, walked down the overturned stairs back to the ship's deck, which was not yet flooded.

"Huh? It really is Komi-kun?"

After seeing the girl in Amamiya Natsuki's arms clearly, Zhu Zhu's eyes widened in surprise.

"Zhu Zhu, please take care of Shoko." Amamiya Natsuki put Shoko down and sighed softly. "Explain the current situation to Shoko."

"I see."

Zhu Zhu nodded quickly; at this moment, she had quietly come to believe what Amamiya Natsuki had said.

"Natsuki-kun, wipe yourself down," Fujiwara Chika said, handing her a towel with concern. "Be careful not to catch a cold."

“No need.” Amamiya Natsuki waved her hand and said, “Now that everyone has been found, we still need to find a way out of this ship… The real exit of the capsized cruise ship should be below. I’ll dive down and take a look.”

Upon hearing this, Fujiwara Chika couldn't help but worry and suggested:

"That sounds dangerous. How about we break the window and get out?"

Amamiya Natsuki: "..."

No wonder you're a physics idiot; one sentence has exposed your incompetent academic failure!

"Can't!"

"Too dangerous!"

Girls with even a basic understanding of physics all voiced their objections.

The ship is now maintaining a fragile balance. If the window is broken, seawater will rush in through it, and air will be quickly squeezed out through the hole. As a result, there will be nowhere left to go.

The current situation is like a car accidentally falling into water. If you don't break the window, the car can float for a while. But if you break the window, the car will be filled with seawater instantly. Moreover, the water pressure at the breach is so strong that ordinary people have no chance to squeeze through. They will be swept away as soon as they get close.

But going into the water to find a way out... is also extremely dangerous.

Human beings have limits.

An ordinary person can only hold their breath for a few minutes, but no one knows how deep the cruise ship has sunk, how long it will take to find a way out, or even if they do find a way out, whether they can swim to the surface is still unknown.

"Don't worry, I have a solution."

Natsuki Amamiya raised her hand and wiped her face, and a black mask appeared out of thin air.

"Eh? Eh? Eh?" Fujiwara Chika's eyes widened. "Natsuki-kun can do magic tricks?"

"It's not magic." Natsuki Amamiya took off her mask and explained speechlessly, "This is an underwater breathing mask, one of the items produced in the game. After wearing it, you can breathe freely underwater... Anyone want to try it out?"

As a player, I never miss the daily blind boxes. Skills are rare, but there are plenty of miscellaneous items.

This underwater breathing mask is a blind box item I got before. Its effect is very simple: it allows you to breathe freely underwater. I've never used it since I got it, but I never expected it to come in handy today.

It's a pity there's only one of these, otherwise there would be no need to scout ahead, and we could just swim out.

"I want to try it!"

Fujiwara Chika raised her right hand with great interest.

"Here you go." Natsuki Amamiya handed over the mask. "Just put it on, it will fit your face automatically, don't be nervous."

"Uh-huh."

Fujiwara Chika put on the mask, put her face into the water, and quickly exclaimed in surprise:

"Natsuki-kun wasn't lying, the mask really does allow you to breathe underwater! This mask is amazing!"

Amamiya Natsuki looked at the other girls and said:

"Hurry up and try anything you want to try."

Yukinoshita smiled and said:

"Natsuki-kun, I want to try it."

Hayasaka Ai followed up:

"I'd like to try a mask that lets you breathe underwater."

Some people wanted to try, while others were unwilling to experience it. For example, after being forcibly kissed by Natsuki Amamiya, Shoko hid behind Shushu and didn't even have the courage to look at him. The Ice Sculpture Lady also had no intention of going forward to try.

The mask's effectiveness has been verified.

"wait me back."

Natsuki Amamiya put on her underwater breathing mask, jumped into the water with a splash, and quickly disappeared from sight.

The seawater was cold and murky, and the visibility in the submerged passage was extremely low, making it impossible to discern any deception. This would naturally cause immense psychological pressure for ordinary people, but Amamiya Natsuki didn't care at all.

Wearing a breathing mask, I navigated underwater and soon found a way out. After pushing open a door, the view suddenly opened up.

Natsuki Amamiya silently turned around and looked back, finally seeing a huge cruise ship upside down in the water, quietly floating.

"Tsk~"

Amamiya Natsuki blew a bubble, circled the boat, and quickly found a lifeboat. She immediately cut the rope, grabbed the leather bag, and floated up, silently calculating the distance in her mind.

Fortunately, the cruise ship did not sink very deep, only about three or four meters. Amamiya Natsuki quickly surfaced. The water was pitch black, clearly still nighttime, and the outline of a small island could be vaguely seen in the distance.

Releasing the kayak, Natsuki Amamiya dived back into the sea and into the sunken cruise ship.

at the same time.

The girls are anxiously waiting in the capsized cabin.

"It's been so long, why isn't Natsuki back yet?"

"Perhaps the ship sank very deep."

"He...he's not not coming back, is he?"

"Impossible." Kaguya Shinomiya shook her head gently, a strange trust welling up inside her. "She will definitely come back."

Wow.

As soon as she finished speaking, Natsuki Amamiya emerged from the water, removed her mask, and stepped forward:

"No problem, I'm back."

Chapter 717 Ice Sculpture Kaguya: How dare he!

"The cruise ship has eight decks. We are currently on the sixth deck. If we go down two decks, we can cross the corridor and exit onto the deck. Swimming up four or five meters will take us to the sea..."

Amamiya Natsuki wiped the water from her face, recounted her escape route, and continued:

"I found a lifeboat. We just untied it and brought it to the surface... Who wants to go out first?"

"..."

The girls exchanged glances, but none of them spoke.

After a few seconds, Yukinoshita Haruno said as if nothing had happened:

"Um, Natsuki-kun just mentioned that there's only one underwater breathing mask, right?"

Amamiya Natsuki nodded and said:

"That's right, it's the only one I have."

This thing is really only useful in special circumstances; otherwise, it's basically just junk and there's no need to hoard it.

Fujiwara Chika hesitated before speaking:

"With only one underwater breathing mask, how are we going to swim out? We probably can't hold out that long..."

According to Natsuki Amamiya, they would have to stay underwater for at least several minutes to escape the shipwreck and return to the surface. They were just ordinary high school students on a school trip. Although they could all swim, the idea of ​​staying underwater for several minutes without breathing seemed extremely dangerous. If they accidentally choked on water, they would truly be trapped with no way out.

Amamiya Natsuki quickly understood the girls' concerns and immediately said:

"I didn't make it clear earlier, so I'll say it again: the breathing masks are for you to use, I don't need them. I'll accompany you the whole way out, and after we get one to the surface, I'll come back to get the next one."

With Amamiya Natsuki's current physical condition, she could hold her breath underwater for half an hour without any problem.

If you really encounter force majeure, you can restart time and start over. In short, you are full of confidence and not panicked at all.

Fujiwara Chika looked over with concern and said:

"Isn't it too dangerous for Natsuki-san to not have a breathing mask?"
