Uma Musume, Master of Love

Hessek is probably the most knowledgeable of modern Tresson's female students among the old classmates. Because of her status as a national idol, she would come to the academy every few years or period of time at Tresson's invitation to sing a song at the New Year's celebration or fan festival. Therefore, Hessek is also the most popular among the junior students.

Huiyi rolled her eyes at her, only realizing after getting to know her that Hesek was essentially a child who never grew up: "Alright... come with me."

On the way back to the training room, Hesek suddenly leaned close to Huiyi and said, "Hey, by the way, did you see that... Night Emperor's scandalous affair last night? Was Luna really that carefree back then?"

"I feel it's true, at least the relationship between Donghai Ziran and Donghai Roman is real. But given Rudolph's performance on the field, I wouldn't be surprised if she did something." Thinking this, Huiyi couldn't help but smile. Doing bad things feels so good!!

Even if Rudolf traces the source, he'll only find an account with an IP address in France! What does that have to do with Huiyi? That was done by those despicable Frenchmen!

Hesek covered his lips with one hand: "Wow...so the younger generation's lives are so colorful...unlike me, I'm still single. Sigh, I really regret not seizing the opportunity to date one or two back then."

"Wait... Senior, don't compare yourself to Rudolf in this regard! What's so great about this kind of thing!" Huiyi couldn't help but complain. After arriving at the training room, he ignored Kitahara's gaze and left Hesek in the living room. He went to the inner room, took out his training clothes and shoes from the wardrobe, changed into them, and threw his pajamas and slippers into the wardrobe, planning to take them with him when he left.

When I came out, I saw that Hesek was already sitting on the sofa, with hot tea on the table in front of him.

"So, what is it that you want to talk about, Senior Haisek?" Huiyi's shirt wasn't fully zipped up, and the exposed half of it felt a bit tight...!

Hesek took a sip of hot tea and pulled a file folder from his bag: "Actually, it's about the concert~ Remember the song you gave me a while ago? It was very well received~ So I want to hold a concert and invite you and me to perform on stage together, the two of us as lead singers."

"Huh? A concert..." Huiyi really didn't expect that Haisek would actually invite her to perform on stage, and that she wasn't afraid that she would drag her down. Logically speaking, most celebrities are afraid of having their expectations lowered at a concert, right?

Perhaps anticipating what Huiyi might have guessed, Haisek leaned closer and said, "You just need to showcase your best vocal talent, that's all. Most fans won't care how high your singing level is; they just want to see their idol shine on stage!"

"Besides, the intellectual property rights for the closing song at the concert are in your hands~ What's there to be afraid of? Didn't you perform very well on the winner's stage? The most important thing on stage is to be confident in yourself!" Haisek's words made Huiyi waver a little. Perhaps going on stage for a moment of glory was a good option? But the issue of time had to be considered...!

Huiyi put down the documents: "So... has Senior Haisek finalized the date for this concert?"

"After the Chrysanthemum Award, if possible, I think... you could apply to skip the winner's stage of the Autumn Flower Award and unleash your full potential at the concert. That would have an even more unexpected effect?"

"After the chrysanthemum appreciation event... I think I could... give it a try...! But I might not have much time to rehearse, is that okay?"

"Absolutely no problem! Your presence is the best thing for me, Huiyi. How about you come with me after you retire and become an idol together? It'll be easy, fun, and you'll have a good mood every day." Haisek beamed with joy after seeing Huiyi sign the documents, and the idea of ​​kidnapping her resurfaced. After all, having a senior in the idol industry to guide you would be incredibly comfortable!

"Well, forget it then. The idol industry is too complicated for me to handle, and I don't like being chased by paparazzi every day. Even if I don't eat well at a buffet, it will be made into a trending topic. Just thinking about it is terrifying!" Huiyi couldn't help but shudder. The thought of not being able to eat without worry was simply torture.

"That's right~ Then good luck with the Qiu Hua Award!" Haisek gave Huiyi two peace signs and smiled slightly.

Kitahara remained silent, but in his heart he was already thinking about whether he could pull some strings and ask Huiyi for a few more tickets!

Chapter 240, The Final Battle, Complete!

"Then could you tell me more about what you know about Luna? I always thought she was a rigid and stubborn junior, but I didn't expect that she had so many interesting things to do in the academy~" Now that the most important thing has been discussed with Huiyi, the rest of the day is a time for Hesek to completely relax.

She described Huiyi to her manager as an unreasonable blockhead and an old-fashioned person who was extremely rigid about idol stage activities, so it was necessary to directly request a free day to deal with Huiyi!

Hearing Haisek's words, Huiyi rubbed her forehead, feeling a bit of a headache: "Senior Haisek, where would I get so many channels to know about this kind of thing? Logically speaking, you should ask Maruzensky and who Chiaki represents... Meguro Mineki is also a good choice. In short, you should find a girl from the same era as her or even earlier!"

"I'm not familiar with them either~ With Xiao Huiyi having such good connections, why would I bother to get to know strangers?" Hesek winked, then drank the tea in front of him and picked up his phone to send a message to his manager as usual.

Because of the agreement made with Haisek to go out alone, he had to report his safety every hour and a half during the day in case of any emergencies such as kidnapping... Of course, Huiyi thought that such precautions were indeed necessary.

Just a few years ago, there was a case where a trainer was robbed by a motorcycle gang while taking a walk around Treson. If it weren't for Jin Zhenzhi's passing by and his speed in catching up with the motorcycle, the trainer would probably have lost his beloved bag.

"Then you should go online and find posts to gossip about, senior Hesek. I don't have that much time right now..." Huiyi sighed. Even though Hesek graduated so many years ago, he was still like an elementary school student. However, it was understandable for an idol to maintain a youthful mindset.

Huiyi currently has no time to focus on those matters. While Hesek was messaging her agent, she also received a message from the tailor. How long has it been since the client finished the work? The efficiency is a bit too fast... It doesn't seem like the Teresen Clothing Department that Huiyi knows.

Of course, she had completely forgotten about the over-reimbursement of material costs she had sent. As the saying goes, money makes the world go round, especially for Ma Niang, who deals with sewing machines all day long. For them, getting reimbursement equivalent to half a month's salary by rushing to finish a job is simply a windfall.

In addition, the design requirements for the recent final battle outfit orders were relatively simple, and they were confident that they could produce them quickly and with high quality. The only difficult one was Huiyi's order, and Huiyi happened to provide a very clear and template-based design idea, so they completed it smoothly.

"Oh, the new final battle outfit is finished..." Huiyi said, looking up at Beiyuan.

Kitahara nodded, holding up his coffee cup: "Then let's go take a look. If there's anything unsuitable, we'll still have time to make changes. After all, there are only two days left until the Autumn Flower Appreciation."

"Huh?? Little Huiyi is changing her final outfit so soon? You've only worn that outfit for less than a year, right?" This was the first time Hessek had ever seen a racehorse girl change her final outfit in such a short time. Most racehorse girls would choose to wear one outfit until retirement. Racehorse girls like Tokai Emperor and Megumi McQueen, who had two outfits during their careers, were very rare. Huiyi even wore hers for a shorter time than Tokai Emperor.

"To be honest, I wasn't very satisfied with that outfit, and it always made me feel a little uncomfortable when I ran in it. So, I've had the idea of ​​redesigning it since Hanshin JF. My trip to Europe gave me some inspiration, but I'm not really sure how the final product turned out... I'll go take a look first. Hesek-senpai, do you want to come along?" As Huiyi stood up, Hesek also stood up; of course, she wanted to go see it!

This is a chance to be among the first to see the brand-new final outfits of the top-tier modern horse racing girls! If you tell anyone, your fellow agency colleagues will be green with envy!

Shining Glory, who was also in the training room, was also going. Kitahara, who wanted to go with him, was left in the training room by Shining Glory under the pretext of urging him to work. Before leaving, when he saw Kitahara's limp ears and tail, Glory laughed gloatingly.

There's no way around it; the only source of joy for working stiffs is from other working stiffs. For example, you get a week off for May Day while your college classmates don't get a single day off from their jobs. After having a blast during the holiday, you lie in bed and send them harassing messages, then watch as those messages, which seem to break your defenses, appear one by one on your phone.

That kind of exhilaration is something that most office workers can't experience, because most office workers don't have such a long May Day holiday.

On the way to the Teresen clothing department, after asking about the details of Huiyi's new clothes, the newly radiant Huiyi blinked in confusion.

What does it mean to decorate with gold, and the more detailed the better?

What does it mean to cast multiple gold laurel decorations to prevent yourself from losing them and not being able to find a replacement for a while?

The seams on most parts of the garment are sewn with gold thread...?

Although Shining Glory thought she had a small villa in the countryside and a sporting goods store, and therefore some money, she couldn't possibly spend money so extravagantly! Designing the winning outfit doesn't mean you can just pile up any materials online!

Perhaps knowing what the new brilliance was surprised about, Brilliant swept its tail and said calmly, "I knew they might refuse, so I offered to reimburse the extra material costs. They're motivated and I'm in a good mood, so spending the money this way is the most worthwhile."

"...So that's how it is...I understand..." It seems that the thinking of the rich is beyond the comprehension of a country bumpkin like Xin Guanghui. After all, in her mind, Huiyi comes from a wealthy family...so spending money like this is understandable.

I still want to remind Huiyi to be careful when she wears this super luxurious final outfit in the future, so as not to lose such a valuable ornament... Money may not be a big problem for her, but if gold falls on the track, it will definitely affect the next game.

"But Huiyi, you really have to wear this final outfit to the competition... Please be careful, okay? Losing this kind of accessory will have a huge impact on the rest of the competition. Just checking the track will take a lot of time." The new radiance finally spoke up. She felt that Huiyi wouldn't consider the possibility of losing it... but as the logistics person, she had to make sure everything was done properly!

"I understand... Of course I'll be heartbroken. Gold doesn't grow on trees..." Huiyi might not think about the impact on the competition, but she would definitely be heartbroken about the gold she spent money on. How could she possibly lose it so carelessly?

After all, a hundred grams of gold would cost over 300,000 yen at the current gold price. Even if you have money, you shouldn't squander it like that. Anyway, Huiyi didn't want to have to ask the clothing department to customize a set of gold jewelry just because she lost this thing.

----

The gray-haired tailor, a horse girl, was idly scrolling through her phone at the front desk. She had finally finished making the final outfits for the new batch of racehorse girls before the Autumn G1 race. Normally, their tailoring department should have taken a holiday until the New Year, and then continue to work on the final outfits for the new generation of classic racehorse girls after the holiday.

It's the same every year, like an assembly line.

"Yawn... But to actually get such a big order this year has added a bit of color to my gray life as a tailor. I wonder if I'll be able to get any more interesting orders like this in the rest of my tailoring career..." She's getting quite old this year, and in a few years she can retire from Treson and receive a pretty good pension. Just thinking about it makes her feel warm inside.

The door to the tailor shop was pushed open with a whoosh, and the gray-haired horse girl perked up, knowing who it was without even looking at the person: "Oh, Miss Huiyi is here. Your winning outfit is inside. Because it's so valuable, it's been double-secured. Please come with us to retrieve it."

"I'll go in with them first, you guys wait a bit, okay?" Huiyi waved her hand and followed the gray-haired tailor inside.

Hesek sat on a chair to the side and complained about the tailor department's rules that hadn't changed in decades: "These old fogies are still so rigid. When I ordered my final outfit back then, the person in charge wasn't allowed to enter the room either. Was it because they were afraid of having their designs copied or something? Thinking about it now, they were really stingy."

"Probably... to prevent people from tampering with the finished garments? You have to consider the worst-case scenario for these things, so it's understandable that there's such a regulation." Brilliant Shining did recall that this was mentioned in the logistics course, but he couldn't remember which textbook it was.

As Huiyi watched the two horse girls turn the key at the same time, he had the illusion that he was watching a bank vault being opened. However, after seeing the jewelry displayed in the safe, the illusion became a reality. The gold in the safe had transcended the category of ordinary gold.

The gold leaf, crafted into the shape of laurel branches, reveals delicate vein patterns under light, while the irregularly extending branches of varying lengths make its purpose unclear at this moment.

"These two gold branches are for tying up the hair. Considering the styling to match the final outfit, we had already consulted a fashion master for a design. And these two leaves are for earrings." As she explained the purpose of each piece of jewelry, Huiyi was increasingly amazed by their craftsmanship.

Setting the jewelry aside for the moment, Huiyi reached out and picked up this one-of-a-kind final outfit.

White, blue, brown, and beige constitute the main colors of the clothes, and the layering is also in the traditional Greek style, giving the illusion of being constricting.

The exposed chest area of ​​the garment was also engraved with golden runes. Huiyi couldn't understand what they meant, but she believed that the seamstresses had their own ideas. A light blue gemstone was also set into the gold collar around her neck, which contrasted with the dark blue fabric of the second layer.

The waist is adorned with three crescent-shaped openings, each inlaid with aquamarine gemstones. The interlacing chains extend to the hem, exuding an air of luxury.

The shoes are brown over-the-knee boots and white knee-high boots, which is a perfect match for Huiyi, a lover of asymmetry. The black stockings on the left leg are also printed with laurel leaf patterns on the thigh, which fully extends the design concept that Huiyi originally gave!

Although it deviated somewhat from the original plan, Jia Yilingzaki v. Qisi Wuliufang was very satisfied!

"It's really nice... cough, can I try it on now?" A little impatient, Huiyi didn't think she could put on this somewhat complicated outfit on her own the first time, and she was also afraid of breaking the jewelry if she didn't dress properly...

Although it can be reworked, time is still a cost.

The seamstress poked her cheek with one finger, thought for a moment, and replied, "Yes, yes... Do you need our help?"

"Of course, of course... Let's not rush into styling. Let's try on the clothes today and see if they fit." Huiyi replied.

Then the tailor snapped her fingers and threw Huiyi, clothes and all, into the dressing room, along with her colleague, who was there to help Huiyi get dressed.

Shining Radiance and Haisek waited outside the room for almost an hour, and just as they were about to get moldy, the door finally opened. However, the horse girl who came out looked somewhat familiar at first glance, followed by a feeling of being both a stranger and a familiar person.

As the saying goes, clothes make the man and a saddle makes the horse. The brand-new radiance was somewhat unsure whether the horse standing in front of him was Huiyi.

Even though there was no change in height, the new radiance could sense that Huiyi had grown taller. Before, she only seemed petite with one hand on her hip, but now she exuded an arrogance that could crush someone with a single step...

"No, no, what am I thinking...!" Zhanxin Guanghui slapped his face, throwing away all the messy thoughts in his head, and ran up to Huiyi and looked him up and down.

Not out of curiosity about the style and decoration of the clothes, but after taking a look at the brand new clothes, Radiant felt relieved. The fabric of the clothes was also quite high-quality, and the elasticity was exceptionally good, so even if Radiant was still developing, she could wear them comfortably.

"So? What's your first impression?" Huiyi tossed her hair and smiled, her lips pursed. She wanted to match the taste of her new clothes with her new outfit, and she thought she was quite charming.

Hesek clapped his hands: "To be honest, it's really good! It's a world of difference compared to Xiao Huiyi half an hour ago! It's no exaggeration to say that if you appeared in this look, you would definitely charm a lot of female fans."

"Is it really that exaggerated...?"

"Of course, even the brand new Radiant was stunned just now~" Hesek chuckled, which made the brand new Radiant blush. This was indeed true. The brand new Radiant had never seen anything like Radiant's outfit, which could directly kill the horse girl in terms of looks...

"I'm just surprised that such stretchable fabric would be used—! Senior Hesek, don't talk nonsense..." After adjusting her state, the new radiance turned away and stopped looking.

Haisek and Huiyi exchanged a glance, and both shrugged silently.

Now that the clothes fit perfectly, the next step is to find that fashion icon to finalize the look for the winning outfit.

After all, Huiyi couldn't possibly lower the aesthetic appeal of this outfit with disheveled hair again!

[Huiyi's face, looking utterly dejected and like she's back in her dorm playing video games, clearly not wanting to train anymore. (JPG)]

Chapter 241 Qiu Hua's Enemy

The fitting process went very smoothly, and Huiyi was quite satisfied with the design style, the fabric of the clothes, and the matching gold jewelry. After confirming that everything was correct, Huiyi signed a delivery agreement with the tailor department.

The production cost of the winning outfit, including the gold, reached 80 yen. With the additional reimbursement expenses, Huiyi paid the tailor department a total of over one million yen. On the bright side, the tailor department was really honest and did not inflate the cost.

Moreover, the tailor department thoughtfully gifted her a box specifically for storing valuable clothing. Huiyi carried it in her arms all the way back to the training room. When Beiyuan saw the box that big in her arms, he thought Huiyi had made the final outfit in some strange way...

Fortunately, only the suitcase had relatively complete insurance measures.

"Is this your new final battle suit?" Kitahara reached out and tapped the outer shell with some curiosity. She had never seen a final battle suit packaged with this level of protection before. So what kind of materials did she use that would make those stingy tailors in the tailor department so generous?

Huiyi looked in the mirror, licked her fingers with the tip of her tongue, and twirled the ends of her hair with her wet fingertips as she replied, "There are quite a few gold decorations, including sapphires. And since I'm not stingy with money, my service attitude is naturally very good. The customer is God, after all. Once word of mouth spreads, the freshmen's desire to customize their winning outfits in the clothing department will be even stronger. It's a very simple business principle."

"Good heavens... gold and jewels, you're probably the first racehorse girl I've ever seen to dare to decorate her racesuit with these things. Aren't you afraid of losing them in the race?" Kitahara's concerns were not unreasonable. Financial losses were a minor issue; more importantly, just like Shining Radiance was worried, it would affect the progress of the subsequent races.

"Gold and gemstones? Can I have some?" The randomly refreshed Sunday Ning Jing, with her sharp ears, immediately jumped out when she heard this topic. Back then, she was the one who gave Hui Yi money, and now she didn't expect that Hui Yi was so rich that she was making jewelry out of gold herself!

Sigh, back then I could easily pull out a wad of US dollars and slap it in front of Huiyi, but now I've fallen out with my family and live on a fixed salary. Things have changed so much...!

Is this what the passage of time is like?! On Sunday, Ning Jing felt for the first time that she was getting older…

As for Zhou Rijing's response, Huiyi picked up an unopened box of sunflower seeds from the table and threw it at the guy with the ahoge on the sofa: "Shut up. If you're really short of money, I can lend you some, but don't get involved in my plans to buy jewelry. Besides, you can work part-time as a private tutor for the Satomi family. I'll ask my dad to give you a higher salary. How about a 100 million yen annual salary?"

"Really? I feel like you're trying to trick me." Zhou Ri Ningjing is now as eager for money as a new student, and of course she was tempted by such a high annual salary.

Huiyi remained silent, only shrugging his shoulders repeatedly.

Even if Satomi Osamu didn't pay Zhou Ri Ning a high salary, Huiyi could still make up the difference for her. After all, her current fame makes her merchandise incredibly popular, almost surpassing the momentum of the Undefeated Two-Crown Great Shock. So even after the foundation takes a cut of the doll's profits, she's already making a fortune.

"Pfft, whatever. I knew you were kidding me. Sigh... I'll go out for a sushi buffet this week after I get paid. I also need to buy some new clothes... But then I realize I don't have enough money." On Sunday, Ning Jing sprawled on the sofa, living the life of a couch potato in the training room every day!

The next day, with one day left before the Autumn Blossom Festival, Huiyi didn't rush to the Kyoto Racecourse. After getting up and washing, she took out the contact information for Treson Fashion Pioneer that the head of the tailor department had given her the night before. Upon closer inspection, she realized it was Golden City...

However, her fashion sense is beyond doubt, surpassing the everyday outfits of 99% of the female racehorses, and Huiyi is quite confident that she has done a good job of styling her winning outfit.

Huiyi arrived at the beauty salon owned by Huang Jincheng a little after seven o'clock. It was still early and the shop hadn't opened yet, but Huiyi, who had contacted her beforehand, pushed the door open and went in. At that moment, Huang Jincheng came out from the inner room with a cup of carrot milk.

"You're here so early, Miss Huiyi. You look much more mature than the last time we met." Huang Jincheng's keen observation immediately noticed that Huiyi's figure had improved considerably, and she finally had the figure to pull off the look she had always wanted to try.

Although the size of the breasts is still meager, at least they're big enough to farm.

"A summer vacation should have some changes, right? I'll go change my clothes first and then come back to have Miss Golden design them, shall I?"

“No problem, it’s perfect for me to do some preparations…and…” Huang Jincheng looked at Da Zhenhan, who was accompanying Huiyi: “Miss Da Zhenhan, do you also need a makeover? I promise it won’t interfere with the competition, and it will allow you to appear in front of your fans with a brand new look.”

"Huh? Me? Me?" Da Zhenzhen pointed at himself, somewhat uncertain, but of course he had to try something this good!

"Then I'll have to trouble Miss Golden City!"

While waiting for Huiyi to change into her final outfit, Huang Jincheng quickly finished his milk, washed his hands, and prepared the tools for styling and makeup. He also took the opportunity to check Da Shenrang's hair.

"Your hair looks really good... Do you usually use conditioner?"

"They're all just ordinary shampoos."

The hair was incredibly smooth and felt like silk. The fact that it had such quality without any special care made Huang Jincheng a little envious. She ran her fingers through it a few more times and then looked into the fitting room. Wasn't it taking a little too long to put on this outfit?

A few more minutes passed before Huiyi lifted the curtain and came out. The height difference created by the clothing made Da Shenyang blink in disbelief. After confirming that Huiyi was still shorter than him, he breathed a slight sigh of relief, but was so amazed by the clothing that he was speechless.

The vast and impoverished cultural knowledge base could only find this word to describe the magnificent beauty of the landscape. 彡容: magnificent.

The radiance before her seemed to emanate from a god, an aura she could never possess... And then, thinking of her own utterly unfashionable clothes, she felt even more unworthy in the face of such a shock. It was like... a country bumpkin coming to the city, even though she could actually be considered a wealthy young lady... right?

My parents run a sporting goods business and have a good relationship with the Satomi family... but why is my taste so different from my family background? My all-black winning outfit seems to have no distinguishing features except for some brown patterns.

"Are you stunned?" Huang Jincheng patted Da Shenjing on the shoulder, chuckled, and then walked over with scissors and hair curlers: "A very beautiful design. Now it's time for you to match this outfit."
