Uma Musume Girl, I'll tell you about my Santa Hat special move too?

Qingzhu recalled that she did not move, and interrupted the other person.

To DouDing, the voice sounded so unfamiliar; the passionate energy it once possessed had vanished without a trace, leaving only an endless emptiness.

"I know my own situation, you don't need to comfort me."

"With this level of overexertion... even if I recover as soon as possible, I'm afraid I won't be able to keep running at my own pace, right?"

That's right.

(My passionate racing career... has come to an end.)

"It's alright, boss! I heard that there have been new research advancements in rehabilitation medicine in the United States recently, and the researchers from the Hua Li Clan have already introduced them to China. So even if there are any problems, they can definitely be solved!"

DouDing sensed the frustration in Qingzhu's tone, and she quickly grasped Qingzhu's hand, saying urgently:

"Even if I have to beg for the first ruby, I'll definitely find a way!"

"So, so boss! You have to pull yourself together! We can definitely do it again—"

"..."

DouDing's words came to an abrupt end.

As she said this, Qingzhu Huiyi slowly turned her head and looked at her with the only eye visible beneath the bandage.

The sense of despondency in his eyes made DouDing unable to finish his sentence.

wrong.

Something's wrong.

Hey boss, aren't you the most enthusiastic and passionate one?

Why are you giving me that look...!?

"No way, trainer."

"There are things in this world that are impossible to do. Just like how we worked hard for five whole years, but still lost to Stardust Illusion, which had just debuted."

What are you talking about?

Dou Ding couldn't believe that the person who said such things to him was actually Qingzhu Yihui in front of him.

It will be this leader who has inspired my insecure self countless times, and who always faces everything with a passionate and positive attitude...

"Didn't we already make a promise...?" the little trainer asked, trembling. "We're going to work together to make you the strongest racehorse girl!"

"For five whole years, we've experienced countless pains and hardships, but we've overcome them all, haven't we?!"

"Why would you do this, boss! Tell me... you were just joking!!!"

The body acts faster than the brain.

When Dou Ding realized what was happening, he had already gripped the bandage on Qing Zhu's chest tightly with both hands, wanting to lift her directly off the hospital bed.

But she immediately thought of Qingzhu's current state and quickly let go of her hand, unsure of what to say.

"You actually dared to speak to me so loudly? You've really grown up, trainer."

Faced with the questioning from the trainer, Qingzhu recalled raising her eyelids, a new sparkle appearing in her eyes:

"I'm sorry, but with my abilities, I really can't fulfill our previous promise."

That's right, right now, she just closes her eyes and her mind keeps replaying the final moments of today's match.

That was the horrific scene of how the Stardust Illusion, with its unreasonable and overwhelming power, had utterly crushed her.

"..."

Tears welled up in the little trainer's eyes involuntarily. She could only clench her hands tightly against her heart, her expression helpless: "Don't... apologize to me..."

"I can no longer become the strongest Uma Musume."

Qingzhu recalled looking at the trainer, whose face was already streaked with tears, and continued:

"However, over the past five years, your care and understanding towards me, trainer... although it's all truly regrettable, and the repeated failures are unbearable..."

"However, I can say without a doubt that I have never regretted it."

Tears soaked the gauze and bandages, and Qingzhu's tone of recollection became more soothing:

"Thanks to my trainers, I've been able to run freely on the field... These past five years have truly been a joyful time."

The two, tears streaming down their faces, looked at each other in silence.

This is the lament of two losers in a corner where no one pays attention.

I really didn't expect to owe so much...

Seeing that authors with similar performance only offered a few more chapters in a week for their bounties, I thought I could easily pay it off before the next recommendation, but...

额啊

Let's take stock of the number of chapters owed.

The number of recommendation votes is 18511 - 12854 = 5657, which rounds up to 6 chapters.

The tip is 24.92 - 19.19, which rounds up to 6 chapters.

刀片和月票一起算，就是2072+2270-1061-299=2982

Based on an average of 80 chapters per update, that's roughly 37 chapters...

That means there are a total of 49 chapters owed...

Ten chapters have been repaid so far, meaning 39 chapters are still owed.

Although it has indeed far exceeded expectations, I'm not kidding, this is all thanks to the support of all the readers with real money. I sincerely thank you all for having such high expectations for this book, which is why you're willing to urge me to update by sending me virtual gifts.

I will try to settle the bill as quickly as possible, and I won't cause any more trouble before that. Thank you everyone!

Chapter 175 The Expedition to France

The winners' stage has ended.

Because the second runner, Qingzhu Memories, and the third runner, the Ringing Bell Parade, were both unable to attend due to health reasons, and Stardust Illusion himself needed the aftereffects of the Disguise Domain, he had to sit in a wheelchair.

So she simply demanded that the performance become a stage for her to shine alone.

"Hoshi no Daialog" – Stardust in a wheelchair perfectly embodied the essence of this song on stage.

Stardust Illusion presented a performance titled "The Opening Revue," bringing a satisfying end to the viewing experience for all the spectators.

Everyone expressed that this overlord, even though he was unable to move, still dedicated himself to the stage as a victor, which was more moving than any ordinary performance...

So what is the wheelchair winner doing now, a day later?

"What's going on? We should be able to see the image by now!"

This was a slightly unfamiliar voice.

In the small jockey lounge, seven or eight female racehorses were huddled around the only table in the room, watching the guy with earmuffs operate a tablet.

"Golden Ship, do you even know how to build one?"

Yamato Akari, this young girl, was still somewhat reserved, so she was squeezed to the very edge of the group and could only barely peek in by standing on tiptoe:

"If it doesn't work, let's find someone else to operate it!"

"Hey, don't rush us. While online broadcasts do allow us to see matches happening all the way in France, the connection definitely requires..."

Golden Ship chuckled as he fiddled with the tablet in his hand, ignoring Yamato's accusations.

Suddenly, before she could finish speaking, she raised her tablet with both hands and shouted:

"Quiet down! Quiet down! This is crucial!!!"

Stardust Illusion, squeezed tightly by Emperor and McQueen and huddled beside the Golden Ship, simply relaxed upon hearing this, letting the three of them jostle him around.

This is clearly Team Spica's rest area.

The stardust illusion appears here because…

The morning after the Yomiuri Miles race, Stardust Illusion, having finished his morning exercise, was heading to the cafeteria for breakfast.

However, they overheard Vodka and Yamato Akama discussing the French race they were going to watch that day.

French competition?

The moment Stardust Illusion heard the term, it perked up.

Are we going to watch Zhuo Fu's match?!

Thinking this, she quickly followed, wanting to join in the fun.

After being squeezed into the very center by such a large crowd, I realized that today was the Gold Master's first match in France, which is why everyone was gathered here to watch the broadcast.

(I should have gone to training...)

Stardust Illusion reached out and slightly moved away from McQueen, who was pressed against his chest, his face filled with utter despair.

Beside her, Special Week, who was also squeezed into mid-air by her teammates, smiled apologetically, reached into her pocket and pulled out a carrot, which she then placed near Stardust Illusion's mouth.

Watching her finish the carrot in just a few bites, Zhou then said, "Because the Golden Master is a sister of the Golden Ship, and we all know her, that's why we're so concerned about her first stop on her expedition to France."

"Oh my god! I see it! It's a master craftsman!!!"

As the golden ship cried out in surprise, everyone immediately craned their necks to look over, and a commentary began to come from the display screen:

[Amidst this torrential downpour, we witnessed the first grass race of the year in France on the Saint-Glou 2000m course!]

[The G3 Ex Hundred Mile Race features thirteen female racehorses competing today, and I will introduce them one by one!]

"Is France only starting its grass court matches now?"

Stardust Illusion, hearing the explanation coming from the tablet, asked curiously.
