Uma Musume: From Being Knocked Ten Meters Away

Chapter 234 Trainer, your pajamas...?
Filled with the excitement of pouring out his heart, Beibu Xuanju rushed out of the dormitory room like a whirlwind.

The wooden floor and stairs were beaten by her anxious footsteps, making a series of rapid drumbeats. Seeing her like this, many horse racing girls chatting and laughing in the corridor showed surprised expressions.

When Kita no Xuanju rushed through the dormitory administrator's duty room, Yamato Akagi, who was sorting out his thesis documents, was startled by the noise outside and looked up.

The pen in her hand almost slipped. She looked outside in surprise and rushed to the door.

"Hey - Xiaobei, it's so late, where are you going?"

Having already rushed out dozens of meters, Northern Black Horse hurriedly stopped when he heard a familiar voice.

Turning around, she saw Yamato Akagi clinging to the door frame with a puzzled look on his face. She scratched her head and said with a silly smile:
"Um... Yamato-senpai, I have something urgent to do with my trainer, so I'll be leaving now!"

Before she finished speaking, she turned and rushed into the campus path illuminated by the street lights.

After a moment's pause, Yamato Akagi suddenly thought of something and quickly raised his voice towards the direction where the northern Xuanju disappeared:
"Don't forget to lock the dorm room on time! If you come back late, I'll lock you out! Be safe!"

The only response she received was the sound of receding footsteps.

"...This child is always so impetuous..."

Shaking his head with a smile, Yamato Akagi turned around and was about to return to the duty room to continue organizing the thesis materials when he suddenly saw a sneaky figure coming down the stairwell.

It looked like it was indeed Satomi Mitsuzu, but what she was wearing was neither the school uniform of Tresen Academy nor the sportswear for training.

Instead, he wore a black windbreaker, black trousers, and black flat shoes that he got from somewhere.

"Light Diamond...it's so late, you want to go out too?"

Yamato Akagi was full of confusion. He took a few steps towards the light and then looked in the direction where Xuanju had left in the north.

"And Xiaobei...what happened to you two?"

He was looking around cautiously when he was suddenly called and his body stiffened.

Then her eyes flickered and she began to stammer:
"Um... I'm giving it to Xiaobei... No, Xiaobei just happened to remind me that I forgot to give something to my sister. Hahaha, I was so careless, hahaha..."

"Things? But what you're wearing..." Yamato Akagi looked at Li Jianguangzuan who was dressed in black.

“Ah, ah… this…”

A drop of cold sweat oozed from his temple. Ri Jianguang Zuan thought quickly and raised a finger, saying anxiously:
"I was originally trying on clothes, and I also felt that this outfit didn't suit me, but then I remembered that I had to give something to my sister, so I forgot to change...hahaha..."

"That's it..."

Yamato Akagi nodded half-believingly. Although she was still a little confused, she nodded when she thought about the fact that Satomi Crown's dormitory was not far from here.

"Okay, go quickly and come back soon, remember not to be too late.

"Oh, by the way, if you manage to meet Xiaobei, remember to ask her not to come back too late and to go to bed early tonight.

"I happen to have more time tomorrow morning, and I'll be running alongside her for training.

"I'll also text her later to remind her."

"Yeah! I'll tell Xiaobei!"

Seeing that Yamato Akagi had no intention of stopping him, Rimi Mitsuzu hurriedly nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, then rushed out of the dormitory building with an apologetic smile on his face.

Not knowing where Northern Xuanju had gone, Rimi Mitsuzumi just ran on the path for a while based on his feeling.

Feeling that Yamato Akagi would not follow her, she finally breathed a sigh of relief. She took out her cell phone to send a text message to Satomi Crown while looking around.

She happened to meet a few classmates who came home late, and asked them one by one. She rolled her eyes and soon revealed a cunning smile.

……

Meanwhile, Beibu Xuanju excitedly ran in a familiar direction. Not long after, he arrived in front of a familiar apartment. Knock, knock, knock.

"Trainer? Are you asleep... Oh, right, I should have called and asked..."

After knocking on the door, Beibu Xuanju realized his negligence and quickly took out his cell phone.

Before I could dial the phone number I knew by heart, the door opened.

He subconsciously looked up and saw An Jingzhen with a look of confusion, which turned into surprise. Kita no Xuanju put away his phone, smiled apologetically and scratched his head.

"Ahaha, the trainer is not asleep after all. It's really hard to disturb you so late..."

Halfway through her speech, she froze and kept looking at An Jingzhen.

An Jingzhen was wearing a set of woolen pajamas.

The base color of the pajamas is black, but the soft velvet collar at the neckline, the cuffs and the decorative lines at the hem are golden yellow.

Unlike the base color and decorative colors, the belt of the pajamas is red and white, which looks very much like the knot used in festivals.

Seeing this extremely familiar color matching style, Beibu Xuanju immediately thought of his own winning suit.

Her eyes widened instantly, and the apology that was on her lips seemed to be blown away by the wind and disappeared without a trace.

Her attention was completely attracted by the pajamas on An Jingzhen, and the image of herself speeding on the track involuntarily emerged in her mind.

And that familiar color miraculously overlaps with the scene before my eyes.

"Trainer, your pajamas..."

She stammered, her voice full of surprise and disbelief, her finger unconsciously pointing at Yasui Zhen's clothes.

"How can I compete with my winning suit..."

She suddenly stopped talking halfway, and her cheeks turned red like a ripe tomato because of inexplicable excitement and shyness.

An Jingzhen was stunned for a moment, lowered his head and looked at his pajamas, a hint of unnaturalness flashed across his face.

When he opened the door, he recognized the voice of Northern Xuanju.

At that time, I was just wondering why a horse racing girl like me came here so late, and I opened the door without thinking too much.

Only then did he realize that after the previous misunderstanding in the kitchen, he quickly learned his lesson and decided to change his habit of living alone and buy a set of pajamas so that there would be no misunderstandings.

It just so happened that after the Chrysanthemum Viewing Festival, Ohno Shoji was discussing pajamas among the projects it was discussing with many investors and sponsors, and they also asked him to provide reference and advice.

I didn't think too much about it at the time, especially when I saw the design draft provided, which integrated the elements of Northern Xuanju's decisive suit with pajamas very well, so I agreed to make some samples to try first.

What he is wearing is a sample, which he just got today.

Unexpectedly, I had just put it on for a short time and just realized how comfortable it was to wear, when Northern Black Horse came over.

She...didn't she think I had it custom-made for her? Although I was the one who said it, that's not the case...

A little flustered for a moment, Yasui Zhen looked away and coughed dryly.

"Well, Xiaobei... don't get me wrong, I actually... don't have any weird hobbies, really...

"This outfit... is actually a product from a merchant, a peripheral product released in conjunction with your victory server...

"This is a sample, so I didn't order it specifically for anything. Don't get me wrong..."
