Having trained real horses, why are we now training racehorse girls after time-traveling?

"Trainer, you are mine... I will never give you to anyone else."

"We still have so many races to win, not just the Emperor's Sho, but also the Takarazuka Memorial, the Arima Memorial... middle-distance and long-distance GI races, and many more."

"I won't allow you to focus on the other kids until we've fulfilled our promise. We're the backbone of the team, aren't we?"

At this moment, McQueen is repeating these seemingly meaningless words, but in reality, every word is a statement of her truest thoughts.

McQueen was initially unhappy about the addition of the East Sea Emperor, because the Emperor was also very talented. At the time, she was the only outstanding racehorse girl in the Jinlang team, and Jinlang devoted all its energy to her. Over time, McQueen got used to the feeling of being constantly watched by Jinlang.

After all, Jinlang was entrusted by his grandmother to become her personal trainer. He thought that with this relationship, plus McQueen's own talent, most racehorse girls whose talent could not surpass McQueen's would be intimidated and automatically retreat—that was McQueen's thinking.

But not long after, the addition of the East Sea Emperor made McQueen feel that something that should have belonged to her had been taken away. Moreover, the Emperor's talent was no less than hers, and he also had her unique "Emperor's Running Style". From that day on, McQueen harbored a deep resentment.

But McQueen could tolerate all of this. After all, to her, the Emperor was just a child who never grew up. She had been by Jin Lang's side for a long time, and her view of the Emperor was the same as Jin Lang's. She hadn't even debuted yet; she was just a child.

As for the Golden Ship... she knew that Jin Lang only treated the Golden Ship like a child. Although the Golden Ship was surprisingly reliable in many situations, it was not something that McQueen needed to take seriously.

But on this day, the conversation between Grandmother and Aldan was something McQueen could no longer ignore.

Mejiro Tobo and Mejiro Mitsuaki are the last two younger sisters in the Mejiro family besides McQueen. Mitsuaki is only a little younger than McQueen and will soon be of debut age, while Tobo will have to wait a while, but it is indeed time for her to start preparing for her debut.

As McQueen's trainer, and also the trainer currently designated by the Mejiro family and who has already achieved results, the trainer for Mejiro Mitsuaki and Mejiro Dober is very likely to be Izanagi.

As for his two younger sisters... to be honest, McQueen himself was well aware that if Bright and Dober really did find their trainers, given their personalities, their future marriage partners would most likely be their trainers.

The reason is simple: Guangming is too pure and innocent. He seems innocent and natural, but in reality, he is a professional straight man. He has almost no resistance to the opposite sex. Over time, he can easily attract innocent trainers and quickly get them under his control.

As for Dober... although she's a bit afraid of men, as long as a trainer can overcome this almost effortless obstacle, getting into Dober's heart is quite easy—what? Why do you say effortless? Have you ever seen a man who is afraid of men still speak politely when facing the men he fears, and who can't resist the other's approach?

This isn't just fear of men, it's practically seduction! McQueen has always felt that Dober's fear of men is just the right amount, practically designed to seduce enthusiastic trainers.

All of these factors combined caused his complete loss of reason when he heard that his grandmother wanted to include Guangming and Duobo in Jinlang's team as well.

This is clearly her trainer, hers! Why, why did they steal her trainer?!

"I don't want that, I don't want my trainer to be taken away."

"McQueen?!" At this moment, Jin Lang noticed a color in McQueen's eyes that seemed familiar to him—a color that looked very similar to the color of a horse's eyes.

Jinlang wasn't stupid. He had learned from Wada and Ikezoe's mistakes, as well as the various abilities of the racehorse girls in this world. Even though Wada and Ikezoe had never mentioned it to Jinlang, he could roughly guess that the racehorse girls in this world were actually connected to the racehorses in their world.

For example, the awakening under the suppression of McQueen's "aura" by Mi Yu, as well as good opera, the Golden Master, and so on, all convinced Jin Lang of this point. And now, the horse-like eye color flashing in McQueen's eyes is also setting off alarm bells in Jin Lang's mind.

The horse racing girl's thoughts are hard to understand, but the horse racing girl's thoughts are easy to understand! In this situation, the horse racing girl has suppressed you, what is she trying to do?

—This mare is probably going to "eat people"!

Jinlang never imagined he would one day be jerked by a horse, even though as a stable boy he was quite knowledgeable about horses and horse-related matters. But even with his extensive experience, he had never been jerked before!

Even the Golden Ship never thought of beating him up, right? Even the Golden Flag, which is even more clingy than the Golden Ship, never thought of beating him up, right? Besides, he looked like an old man at the time. Even if Arima's aesthetic sense is strange, he would never beg an old man like him, right?

Wait, is this why he's in this situation now? Jinlang thought of his younger face. Although it wasn't as handsome as Wada-kun's, it wasn't any worse than Ikezoe-kun's.

Nowadays, horse racing has become horse girls. Whether it's a mares or a Duma (a type of horse racing), they are all horse girls. So, does that mean... they are no different from ordinary girls?

Just a girl with simple desires for horses? That doesn't sound so bad—wait, what is he thinking?

Perhaps his body had become younger, and even the hormones in his mind that should have died out had been reawakened. Jin Lang's wicked thoughts, which hadn't stirred for who knows how many years, had become active again. But given the current situation, he couldn't afford to lose control first.

"Ding Ding Ding-"

Just then, a sudden ringing of the telephone broke the atmosphere in the room, and the sound made McQueen pause slightly, and the color of his pupils seemed to return to normal.

At that moment, Jin Lang and McQueen both looked at the phone by the bed. Even though they could only see a small corner, Jin Lang saw that the incoming call displayed on the phone was from "Golden Ship".

"The Golden Ship..."

McQueen also murmured the name softly. Although she did not leave Jin Lang's body and remained sitting on his lower abdomen, she slowly withdrew her arm that was pressing down on him.

Jin Lang seized this opportunity to quickly answer the phone, which was practically a lifesaver for him. He quickly composed himself and said:

"Hey, the Golden Ship?"

"Grandpa! Where are you? Wada and Ikezoe are back, why aren't you here? Weren't you drinking with them?" Golden Ship's voice came out immediately. Even though it was bedtime, she was surprisingly energetic, panting as if she were still running.

"I'm... at the Mejiro residence right now." Imai glanced at McQueen, who was currently riding on his back, signaling her not to speak, then addressed the Golden Ship:

"Lady Meguro had something to tell me, so I didn't inform her beforehand and forgot to pass it on. I'm sorry, Golden Ship."

"Really? That's a bit strange." However, upon hearing this, Golden Ship, unusually, did not believe Jin Lang's words, but instead said with suspicion:

"It's so late, Grandpa. You're usually asleep by now, right? And your phone is on silent when you sleep, so it shouldn't be able to get through. How come it's connected now?"

"Um... I talked a little late today." Jin Lang replied, his forehead covered in sweat. The Golden Ship was surprisingly sensitive in strange places.

"Really? If that's the case, shouldn't your first words when you answer the phone be something like, 'What's the matter that you're calling so late?' You've answered like that the last few times."

However, after a moment of silence, a sudden knock on the door startled McQueen and Jin Lang.

The knocking sound came from outside the door.

"Grandpa! I'm right outside! Open the door and let me in!"

How did she find us?! At that moment, Jin Lang and McQueen's expressions turned horrified. The Golden Ship's powerful tracking ability had left them with nowhere to escape!

Chapter 329: The Golden Ship and McQueen's Hide-and-Seek in the Fog

The moment the sound of the golden ship rang out outside the door, a multitude of questions arose in the minds of McQueen and Jin Lang.

How did the golden ship end up here? Was the panting she was breathing earlier when she was running towards the Mejiro family?

But how did she know they were at the Mejiro residence? She was just asking Imanami about his location a moment ago, wasn't she?

Moreover, how did the golden ship get in? This is clearly the Megumi family's residence, with guards and patrolling bodyguards outside. How did she break through so many obstacles and get here in such a short time?

All sorts of questions lingered in their minds, but the knocking on the door from the golden ship grew louder and louder, and then the voice of the golden ship outside immediately rang out:

"Grandpa? Are you inside? Are you alright? Otherwise, I might just barge into the Golden Ship!"

"I'll count to three, and if you don't respond, sir, I'm really going in!"

"No, no, I have to hide quickly."

McQueen suddenly realized that she and Jin Lang were in a very difficult situation. She quickly understood that if this were seen by others, things would become very complicated.

She had to protect the reputation of the young lady of the Megumi family! And the reputation of the trainer! At that moment, McQueen, whose rationality had regained its footing, quickly surveyed the surrounding situation and swiftly formed a plan in his mind.

This guest room is quite large, but it's only on one floor. So, as long as I climb out the window, everything will be fine. The golden ship will need some time to break in. As long as I climb out the window quickly, everything will go smoothly...

"Doo-hoo!"

However, just as McQueen was thinking this, a strange cheer suddenly rang out, and the door to the guest room opened in response. The golden ship rushed in abruptly and immediately stood in front of Jin Lang.

At that moment, when the Golden Ship entered the room, it found Jin Lang lying on the bed in a "spread-eagle" position, looking at the Golden Ship with a blank and helpless expression, as if he were an unarmed person facing a sudden flood or ferocious beast.

"...Didn't we say to count to three?"

"Old man, I counted, you just didn't hear me."

The Golden Ship, completely unaware of its surroundings, entered the room without explaining how it got in or why it was there. It simply looked around at the other guest rooms and remarked with a sigh:

"As expected of the Mejiro family, they are a long-established family with a solid foundation. Our Golden family's situation is indeed not as good as this one. In addition, with the matter of the shaman, the Mejiro family is even richer now."

"Even so, Grandpa, you can still visit our Golden family's place occasionally, right? Although our conditions aren't as good as McQueen's, they're not bad either!"

"We can also experience a weekly wilderness survival challenge. Grandpa, the grilled insects I make are really delicious! Although Sister Zhongshan and Sister Jujiang don't eat them, the eldest sister always eats a lot when she comes to participate!"

"Please spare me the bugs... There are just too many things to complain about, I don't even know where to begin..."

The old man has only just recovered. He feels more exhausted than ever before. So much has happened today that it's mentally overwhelming for someone accustomed to a peaceful and stable life.

Jin Lang felt that if he were to use the vocabulary of today's young people, he would probably be considered a "complaint specialist" by now. However, Jin Lang's eyes still glanced intentionally or unintentionally at the space under the bed—just now, the moment the golden ship burst in, McQueen seemed to have teleported under the bed.

Fortunately, McQueen was relatively slender, otherwise he probably wouldn't have been able to squeeze under the bed. At this moment, Jin Lang could only pray that this unexpected golden ship would leave quickly, in a way he couldn't even imagine, just like always, so that McQueen could leave safely.

"Speaking of which, how did you get here on the Golden Ship?"

"Hehe, it's very simple. The guards of the Mejiro family are all familiar faces to me. Anyway, I won't do anything too outrageous. Just give each of them 10000 yen to go have a drink and rest, and they'll sneak in in no time."

Golden Ship spoke in a very relaxed and casual tone, saying words that made even McQueen, who was under the bed, feel his blood pressure rise, while smiling as he came to Jinlang's bedside.

"Thud!" The next moment, the golden ship deliberately leaped up and crashed straight into the soft Simmons mattress. With a jolt of the mattress, a dull thud followed, and a gasp of surprise rang out.

"Ouch!"

"..."

For a moment, both Golden Ship and Jin Lang fell silent. Although Golden Ship's smile showed no sign of fading, for some reason, Jin Lang saw a hint of danger in Golden Ship's eyes at that moment.

……

"Damn it—when did the Mejiro family's defenses fall so easily? Just how familiar is that Golden Ship with our Mejiro family's guards? She always comes to cause trouble and make a mess of things, so why are the guards so familiar with her?"

"Wait, is that why the Golden Ship can always come in unimpeded? Damn it! I'm going to make Grandmother replace all these bodyguards!"

Meanwhile, Megumi McQueen, who was hiding under the bed like a cat, was listening to the conversation between the Golden Ship and Imai. Her heart was in turmoil. For the first time, she began to doubt the Megumi family's defenses because of the Golden Ship's unimpeded entry.

At this moment, McQueen's only wish was for the golden ship to leave as soon as possible. Although she could hide under the bed, the underside of this Simmons mattress was different from the old-style support frame; it was very low, making it extremely difficult for her to hide. If McQueen were even slightly overweight, she wouldn't be able to squeeze in.

"Hurry up and leave, Golden Ship... Your intrusion into our Mejiro family has been extremely reckless; you should leave as soon as possible."

Staying under this bed is really uncomfortable. McQueen felt his body starting to ache, when suddenly he felt a violent vibration from the bed frame. The Simmons mattress felt immense pressure and immediately caved in.

The wooden plank below then inevitably struck McQueen's slightly raised head.

"Ouch!" McQueen cried out in pain, but the next moment she immediately covered her mouth, her whole body breaking out in a cold sweat.

No, this is terrible—I just screamed!

"You shouldn't have heard, right?" McQueen was momentarily flustered. However, the voice of the Golden Ship on the bed shattered her illusions. She heard the Golden Ship's tone become somewhat strange as it spoke:

"Just now, I think I heard a sound—what could it be?"

"Oh dear, could there be rats here?! Don't worry, Grandpa! I'll find them! Don't worry!"

"That, the Golden Ship..."

"That sound seemed to come from under the bed! Let me see what's under the bed—"

Oh no! McQueen began to panic involuntarily, but surprisingly, her mind calmed down quickly. She looked in front of her and heard the sound of feet landing, but she didn't notice the golden ship's feet in front of her.

That means the golden ship should be behind you right now!

"Then let me see if there are any little mice under the bed..."

Now! McQueen seized the opportunity and glided out like a penguin, managing to get out from under the bed just before the Golden Ship discovered her. Then, McQueen took the opportunity to crawl under the curtains near the window.
