Sure enough, Ah Chen said, "He's on leave today, not coming."
When they parted yesterday, Bai Chao had already told her that he wouldn't be at the swimming pool today, likely due to some NPC setting.
The person asking felt a bit disappointed; looks like they need to be extra cautious today.
Fortunately, he wasn't someone who completely relied on Bai Chao. Of course, if there's a shortcut, you should take it; if not, then it's all on your own skills.
Ah Chen changed into her swimsuit in the locker room and headed to the pool.
Not sure how today's experience would unfold, this thought barely finished when she saw a sign by the pool that read: Shallow end, three hours of accumulated swimming experience.
She didn't linger and went to the deep end, where she indeed found the ubiquitous sign: Deep end, one hour of accumulated swimming experience
Once in the deep end, Ah Chen wasn't planning on returning to the shallow end. For her, the less time, the better.
