"Instructor Evans is occupied with something, so for the next few days, Flossie Wright will serve as a temporary instructor..."
Oscar Bluen, the Northerner, spoke with clear, rounded enunciation, ensuring that every word was crisply articulated, making himself understood by everyone.
Violet Evans had other matters to attend to.
Flossie Wright became a temporary instructor.
Flossie Wright became a temporary instructor?!
What the fuck, a trainee whose diving skills are ranked at the top but aren’t especially outstanding, was actually picked to be a temporary instructor?!
A temporary instructor, man!
"Any objections?"
Towards the end, Oscar Bluen harrumphed, his piercing gaze sweeping over all the trainees.
The threat was overt, leaving no one daring to utter a word.
It was already decided, what can you do if you disagree?!
Moreover, given Flossie Wright’s special circumstances, with her left hand injured, training was truly inconvenient, they had to be understanding to some extent, and so, grinding their teeth, they accepted it.
After a brief pause, seeing no one spoke up, Oscar Bluen’s expression eased slightly before he spoke sternly, "Now, circle the pool. Each of you pick up two ropes, and use one to bind your legs together first."
"Yes, sir!"
All responded in unison.
Compliantly, they lined up around the pool and bound their legs as instructed.
After a short while, Oscar Bluen shouted again, "Pair up, and bind one person’s hands."
The faces of the crowd all stiffened.
But, as these were the instructor’s orders, they were left with no choice but to comply.
Inspecting them, Oscar Bluen’s expression remained grim, brooking no falsification or deceit.
Two minutes later, he turned to Flossie Wright and said in an even tone, "You, go and tie up the rest."
Flossie Wright quickly acknowledged.
This training of entering the pool with hands and feet tied happened every few days.
They all knew the drill.
Despite that, Flossie Wright, who was standing idle, couldn’t help but feel ashamed for them.
Being bound hand and foot in the water meant giving up any chance of escape, and without enough strength and skill, it would only take a few minutes before they’d drown.
A large portion of trainees chose to drop out voluntarily because they couldn’t stand the pain of such training.
With Flossie Wright’s left hand injured and her fingers barely movable, it took her some time to tie up a few people before Oscar Bluen, unable to watch any longer, stepped in to do it himself.
Soon after, Austin Shepherd came over with a list and began to watch from a distance.
"Let’s try something new today," Oscar Bluen announced from above the pool, his gruff voice carrying quite a distance, "stand up first."
The crowd was bewildered.
They did as told and stood.
With their hands and feet bound, the action of standing up was particularly difficult. Two of them stumbled a few times and nearly toppled into the pool behind them.
Oscar Bluen glared coldly at those two, then averted his gaze and announced loudly, "Regardless of how you do it, stay in there for twenty minutes. If you can’t endure it, just give a shout, and let your Pastor Instructor cross off your names, pack up your belongings and leave."
"..." Many showed a look of despondency.
"Did you hear that?!" Oscar Bluen suddenly raised his voice.
"Yes, we heard!"
The response was loud.
"Get in the water," Oscar Bluen commanded sternly.
"Yes, sir!"
They roared with all their might.
When it came time to enter the water, not everyone was as resolute.
Apart from about ten people who dived in without hesitation, the rest hesitated and fidgeted for a while before finally jumping into the pool one after the other.
