Half of a Umamusume

"you too?"

"Well, I'll walk around with Mi Yu and the others."

While eating marshmallows, Mi Yu leaned happily against Fujiwara Chiye.

After looking at Mi Yu meaningfully, Nase Fumino nodded. At the same time, Fujiwara Chiya saw the favorability displayed on the other party: 85.

Likewise, frighteningly high.

"Then I won't bother you any more."

"Ah."

Nase Fumino nodded.

He didn't look away until Fujiwara Chiya and the others disappeared into the crowd.

"Trainer Qianye." Just when Fujiwara Chiye was feeling a little tired and wanted to find a place to rest, a green figure appeared in front of Fujiwara Chiye.

"Ms. Junchuan."

"Why are you wearing glasses?"

"I want to change my image a little bit. I'll take down the decorative mirror tomorrow."

"I see. By the way, do you have time?"

"Have."

"Chairman Akikawa said he wants to talk to you about something."

"Okay, I'll go there now."

"Brother, are you going to work?" Mi Yu looked at him reluctantly.

"Sorry Mi Yu, please wait for me."

"Yes...Mi Yu will be here, waiting for Brother-sama."

Mi Yu sat on the chair obediently.

Fujiwara Chiya hurried to the chairman's office, with a look of doubt in his eyes.

Just now, if I saw correctly, Tsuna Sugawa's favorability seemed to be... 96?

Chapter 71: Let’s Participate in the Rookie Trainer Competition

In the chairman's office, Fujiwara Chiye knocked on the door, and after receiving a response, he pushed the door open and walked in.

"Chairman Qiuchuan, do you have something to talk to me about?"

"Qianye."

She looked at the black-haired young man at the door, "What is that, glasses? What happened to your eyes?"

"These are my...blue light blocking glasses, for protecting my eyes."

"So thick? Are you sure it's to protect against blue light and not something else?"

Akikawa Yayoi frowned.

"I prefer this particular one... huh?!"

"what happened?"

"fine……"

Fujiwara Chiya looked at the favorability indicator next to Akikawa Yayoi: 92.

Are you kidding? If the chairman had such a high liking for me, I would have been in heaven a long time ago. Why would I be just a small trainer?

It turns out that there is something wrong with these glasses. Everyone looks taller than me.

Especially Tetsuna Sumikawa.

If her favorability had improved a little more, it would have reached the impossible state that Airihaku said, but the other party treated him no differently from other trainers.

I'll report this to Elissa after I get back. There's something wrong with this favorability algorithm.

"Anyway, take off those funny glasses first. There's no blue light in the room."

"it is good."

Fujiwara Chiya stuffed this unreliable thing into his pocket.

"What does the chairman want to ask me for?"

"There will be a new trainer exchange meeting next week. I hope you can go and attend."

"Exchange?"

"That's right. All new trainers who have been taking the exam for less than two years can participate. Each person must bring three horse girls to compete with other trainers."

"How could such a meeting happen..."

"The central government wants to focus on training new trainers who have just started. The older generation of trainers have already formed a fixed mindset, which is difficult to change. But the new trainers are different. They are more malleable and can easily accept new knowledge."

"New knowledge?"

"The central government has recently revised a new batch of basic knowledge textbooks for trainers, which will be distributed to you soon." Akikawa Yayoi cleared his throat a few times. "In short, you just need to know that you new trainers are getting a lot of attention. If you perform well in this exchange meeting, you can get extra points in the trainers' year-end assessment."

"Your current rating is still quite dangerous. If you don't do something, it will be easily eliminated. So I want you to bring three horse girls to participate in this exchange meeting. As for the selection of people, it's up to you."

“It would be best if all three horse girls could win, then your score would go up significantly. Even if that’s not possible, at least one horse girl must come first, otherwise it would be a waste of time, do you understand?” Akikawa Yayoi tapped her fan.

"Yes." Fujiwara Chiya nodded. "Chairman, who are the new trainers?"

“Some trainers with good grades were directly invited to work in the central office, some are in Trasen, and some are in local areas.”

"I see……"

"No matter who your opponent is, you only need to know one thing: use your horse girl to beat them hard. Trainers look at strength, not those flowery words."

"Understood! I will definitely complete the task assigned by the chairman!"

"Very good, go back, Trainer Qianye, don't let me down!"

Fujiwara Chiya saluted, turned and left the office.

A few minutes later, Tetsuna Jungawa walked in.

"Have you finished the arrangements, Chairman Akikawa?"

"It all depends on whether he can seize the opportunity." Akikawa Yayoi spread out her fan. "Although I hate to say this, this kid's luck is just too bad. Two consecutive horse girls have bad tempers and are determined to terminate their contracts with him. No one can stop them."

"I can only say... this is a test given to him by God."

Akikawa Yayoi smacked her lips.

"By the way, how is the investigation of Fujiwara Shirayuki's identity going?"

"There is no information about her, no fingerprints, no appearance, nothing can be found."

"Then how did this child become Qianye's 'sister'?"

Akikawa Yayoi didn't remember that there was such a person in the Fujiwara family.

"Perhaps only Trainer Qianye knows this. Do you want to ask him?"

Akikawa Yayoi thought about it for a moment.

“Forget it. No matter what her true identity is, it’s true that Fujiwara Shirayuki is a horse girl. Besides, there will be situations in the future when Qianye will have to explain himself, so we don’t need to push him too hard.”

"Yes, then I'll go back first, Chairman Akikawa."

Tetsuna Sugawa nodded in response, and just as she was about to leave, she was stopped by Yayoi Akikawa.

"Tetsuna, you too." Akikawa Yayoi said, "Don't interfere with him too much. The boy was admitted to the central school based on his own strength. He has the ability to become a senior trainer."

Hearing this, Tetsuna Sumikawa smiled slightly.

"Chairman Akikawa, I didn't do anything to him, did I?"

"I'm just reminding you..."

"Don't worry." Tetsuna Shunkawa showed a charming smile.

"I will only help him when he needs help the most. The rest of the time, I am just an unknown secretary to the chairman. After all, Trainer Qianye regards me as the 'perfect woman'. How could I do something so unromantic?"

Lowering his head, Tetsuna turned and left the room.

After the other party's footsteps disappeared, Akikawa Yayoi sighed.

She walked to the bookshelf, opened a few books, and revealed the group photo hidden inside.

It was a picture of two foals, a middle-aged man, and a baby.

In the photo, the short orange-haired girl is a horse girl who immigrated from abroad to the central government, with a northern style.

The slightly taller horse girl next to her, with an arrogant expression, green eyes and short brown hair, was once a powerful figure who dominated the central team. It was a harvest moment.

The black-haired middle-aged man standing between the two of them is their trainer, Fujiwara Zenya.

As for the baby held tightly in the arms of the brown-haired horse girl, his name was Fujiwara Chiya.

On the other side, Fujiwara Chiya hurried back to the office. He had to decide who could play before the weekend.

First is voluntary willingness, and second is strength.

In addition, the training plan for the days of the exchange meeting also needs to be changed.

After making the decision, Fujiwara Chiya walked out of the office. As soon as he walked out, his stomach began to rumble.

Looking at the sun outside the window, he decided to have lunch first.

"Trainer Qianye, what a coincidence."

"Trainer Naise..."

In the corridor, Fujiwara Chiya accidentally met Nase Fumino, and the two talked about the new trainer exchange meeting.

"That meeting...I've attended it before."

"Really? Tell me about it."

The two walked towards the cafeteria, and Nase Fumino told them what she had seen and heard.

According to her understanding, there are many talented new trainers and horse girls, and the competition difficulty is very high. Many of them are horse girls directly under the central government who are not in Tresen and are directly managed by the central trainers.

Listening to the other party's explanation, Fujiwara Chiye took notes quickly.

When the two finished their meal and came out of the cafeteria, it was almost two o'clock in the afternoon. Passing by the Tresen Teaching Building, Fujiwara Chiye inadvertently saw a petite figure sitting on a chair.

As if independent of the world, she just sat there quietly in the bustling campus, doing nothing.

Rice bath! ?

Oops……

Fujiwara Chiya slapped his head and then he remembered that Mi Yu was still waiting for him. It had been more than three hours since he entered the chairman's office. He even had lunch in the middle, and Mi Yu had been there, waiting for him until now.

Fujiwara Chiya walked over quickly.

Hearing the sound, Mi Yu slowly raised his head. After seeing who was coming, a smile instantly broke out on his originally lonely face.

"Onii-sama!"

"Mi Yu, have you been here all the time?"

"Yes, Mi Yu has been here, waiting for big brother obediently." Her face was as pure as an angel.

Seeing Mi Yu like that, Fujiwara Chiya bent down and held her in his arms.

“Brother?” She was stunned for a moment, “Hehe, Brother’s hug…”

"Is there anything you want to eat?"

"Mi Yu wants to eat...octopus balls."

"I left the rice bath and went to buy some octopus balls."
