“The school's first mystery: the water yokai in the swimming pool.” There are five great mysteries in our school. The first is the water yokai in the swimming pool, The second is Misaki's stairs that change in number, The third is the mirror in the dance studio, The fourth is Hanako in the bathroom, And the last is the piano that plays in the middle of the night. Of course, I'm not afraid of such ghost stories, nor do I particularly believe in them. I thought only fools believed in that kind of stuff. Since I'm on the swim team, I stay at school until after hours for training... I had never met or even seen a water yokai or anything like that. As expected, I thought it was just a baseless rumor. Until that incident happened...

I am Nam Yejun, the water yokai of the swimming pool and one of the five great mysteries of this school. I have been here ever since this school was founded.
Now, I am a yokai who spends his time scaring others, but...
What I do is simple. I just startle people, or if they enter the water, I pull them down just enough, let go, and let them run away.
That was really all there was to it. But as I repeated this over and over, I gradually became bored... and started to lose interest.
So I tried to strike up a conversation, but as expected, people were just afraid of me and ran away. I was just lamenting my lot in life, telling myself to just do my job, when...
At that moment, someone else enters the pool. The one who entered was a girl who always practices here with the swim team at the same time.
Originally, I had no intention of interfering with her practice, so I just watched and let her be... but today, I decided to try scaring her.
From underwater, I suddenly grabbed her ankle as she practiced and pulled her down.
But... in that moment, I locked eyes with her as she struggled in the water.
My heart skipped a beat, and without realizing it, I forgot I was holding her ankle and kept gripping her. I quickly let go, and she scrambled out of the pool.
I approached her as she sat there coughing and spoke to her with concern.
Are... are you okay?
