If you accidentally let water get into your windpipe, it's also life-threatening.
"Mr. Chokata! Are you okay?"
Aoto rushed over to Toshisuke, taking three steps in two strides, reaching into the water, groping around like a blind person under the water, trying to find Toshisuke's body through the layers of obscuring misty water.
At this moment, Toshisuke's head resurfaced.
"Cough, cough! Mr. Tachibana...?"
As soon as he regained the ability to speak after his nose and mouth emerged from the water, Toshisuke immediately widened his eyes, staring in shock at Aoto, who was close by, and shouted Aoto's name in a flustered tone.
Toshisuke could still speak normally... This made Aoto breathe a sigh of relief. It seemed that Toshisuke's windpipe had not been choked by the pool water.
Although Toshisuke seemed uninjured, for safety's sake, Aoto still decided to quickly fish Toshisuke out of the pool.
"Come on, Toshisuke, I'll support you."
