The socially anxious girl doesn't want to stick to me!

then.

Turn your attention back to the game.

……

at the same time.

The confident horse racing girl and the cowardly horse racing girl met at the other end of the racecourse.

The one who supports Igarashi Sakuraba...The Emperor of the East China Sea.

as well as.

Supporting good opera... the famous general Nu Tao.

The two were not particularly familiar with each other... they didn't socialize much in the first place, so after greeting each other, they sat down together and watched the game seriously. The silence lasted until ten minutes later, when the Emperor of the East China Sea suddenly asked, "Who do you think will win, Nu Tao?"

“Eh…!?” A trace of panic appeared on the face of the famous general Nu Tao.

She already had the answer in her heart.

It just takes a little courage to speak out the answer...

Staring into the other's eyes, he swallowed, took a deep breath, patted his head, and made small movements uncomfortably - with a sense of certain death: "Of course Good Opera will win!! Because Good Opera has been very good recently... and its progress is super fast!"

"Okay." The Emperor of the East China Sea smiled meaningfully: "Then let's continue watching."

I can only say that she has the same personality as her mother.

They all completely believed in Igarashi Sakuraba.

……

of course.

No matter how complicated or exciting the off-field situation is.

The most gorgeous part is the center of the venue.

All the horse racing girls entered the center of the gate... Igarashi Sakuraba was not an exception, she also stood in the middle of the gate.

then.

Take a deep breath.

The lungs inflated and then deflated.

The muscles relaxed with the rhythm of breathing, but in the next moment, they were tightly grasped - and then, she fluently took the starting position, all the strength was ready to pour out. Starting has always been Igarashi Sakuraba's strong point, she usually uses skills and bursts of strength to exchange for a good position.

only……

Sharp eyes.

The track for this race is number seven.

Not good, not bad.

Good Opera was standing next to No. 8, but Ai Mo Zhiji was lucky enough to get the innermost position - Chosen No. 1.

These rankings may have some impact on your grades.

But not much.

After all, the longer the race, the more dilution there is between the inner and outer lanes.

then.

In an instant.

The gate suddenly opened, and the horse racing girls who were fully prepared burst into a colorful splendour at this moment! ! All the horse racing girls wanted to grab a good position... or not be left behind so far.

just.

This time, Igarashi Sakuraba did not use his own weapons as usual.

Her start was very light and fluttery.

It's obvious that he didn't use his full strength...

Because... there is no need to rush, right? In a 2400M race, keeping a steady rhythm is the most important thing. It is no longer a 2000M middle distance race. The extra 2F distance will make a world of difference. So there is no need to be like the previous three races.

Run to the front at the beginning and then run until you are exhausted, so as to keep a pace so as not to be caught up.

The strength has been improved.

not to mention……

Igarashi Sakuraba awakened Chiaki's representative running style.

The emerald green wind will sweep in from the back and blow across everyone's cheek.

……

then.

This state of mind is as calm as still water.

It was broken by someone on the side of the track.

Seeing the start of the game, Sky God stopped pretending and spread out his two-meter stick with a flag that read "Must Win" tied to it. Just like that, he waved the flag, stood on the side of the road, and shouted, "Come on!!! Igarashi Sakuraba!!!!!!!!!"

"If you don't win this derby I will commit suicide! I will jump off the building and commit suicide tomorrow!"

“Eh hey hey hey!?”

Fans around her immediately cast their eyes on her, wondering what kind of fanatic is this? But the distinctive shark teeth were enough for them to recognize her identity... and it turned out to be a Umamusume?

If Uma Musume committed suicide by jumping off a building, that would be a big deal.

then.

His eyes couldn't help but look at Igarashi Sakuraba.

——I hope this horse girl can win the race...

But in short, this immediately attracted a lot of attention to Igarashi Sakuraba. The security also noticed the situation here, and confiscated the flag of the Sky Shrine that caused the commotion, and almost dragged the opponent out of the field and kicked him out - this was because of her identity as a horse girl.

——If I remember correctly.

Was this trick originally intended to be used at the Takarazuka Memorial?

Urge the Sky Palace to rush towards the championship.

only……

Is this a case of reaping the fruits of one's own actions? Igarashi Sakuraba's hands immediately began to tremble.

How could this happen? Aa ...

This is -- give someone a taste of their own medicine!!!

The pressure was instantly maxed out.

……

but.

Fortunately.

Igarashi Sakuraba was aiming for the championship.

Is not it?

Her eyes were fixed on the good opera far ahead of the herd.

Chapter 139: Igarashi Sakuraba is in a very bad condition?

"Sao."

"This Japanese derby has begun, and it's Good Opera that's in the lead! Good Opera is in the lead, is Little Hero No. 3 catching up? No, she's not catching up, and she didn't choose to waste her energy."

"And the popular contestants Aimo Orihime and Naritaji moved to the center."

"There are quite a few people hiding in the center of the herd. Overall, the pace of this race is relatively stable, with no horse girls running away to set the pace."

"besides."

"Igarashi Sakuraba is at the back of the herd?"

The commentator's voice was a little surprised, and he summarized the starting conditions from a bird's eye view.

……

Mainly puzzling.

It’s still Igarashi Sakuraba’s choice.

He was actually at the back? Was it because of a false start? Or something else... He couldn't help but ponder.

after all.

After the Gaoyue Sho, countless people spontaneously became fans of this gorgeous winner. They watched the videos of Igarashi Sakuraba's past games. Even the game analysis and background checks showed that she used escape or advance tactics in the previous three games.

All of them were at the front of the herd.

The starting weapon was sharp and polished to a shine.

Just now...

I'm actually at the back!? Is there something wrong with the start? No, maybe I didn't start hard enough?

Is it because of the bad condition?

There are countless thoughts.

but--

It's not a mistake, it's a strategy.

They were not aware of the Chameleon's ability to change shape and form, although they knew it could often change shape and form like a magic trick. However, they were not experienced trainers after all, and could not see the deepest part. All they could do was look at the last position, frown deeply, and sigh.

If it stays in this position...it's easy for something to go wrong! ?

A good opera is really not an easy horse girl to chase.

"Igarashi Sakuraba! Chase after him!!!"

Some people could not stand it anymore and stood at the edge of the track, shouting orders.

——Don't be in a hurry.

Igarashi Sakuraba did not obey the command and showed such an expression to comfort the fans.

Running through the dream derby myself...

It is clear that we cannot rush this game.

One is the endurance issue. Igarashi Sakuraba is very fast, there is no doubt about that, but does switching running styles frequently really not consume endurance? The answer is yes, and a lot of it. Her endurance is not that strong to begin with, and it is not comparable to Narita Road and the like. It's just that the previous competition was only 2000M, so this problem was not exposed.

If you follow the pace of good opera.

Igarashi Sakuraba was very much doubtful that he would not be able to give his all in his final burst.

Now, he was in the last position, without any wind resistance, and there were countless rabbits ahead to clear the way for him. When he broke out, he only needed to find the line of the gap and pass through it, and that was enough. The intuition from the genius would give him the answer.

Pretty good.

The main focus is leisurely.

The second is planning.

--actually.

Start from the first step.

Igarashi Sakuraba is implementing the theory he has mentioned.

She must practice, otherwise theory will always be just theory.

——【Get the championship position】

——【Running towards the future】

Everything is just an element created for the championship.

so...
