Tresen Red Line Domination

"But, for the sake of my title as emperor, I will let him enter Tresen!"

……

"Duolei, where have you been? Come here quickly... Oguri's winner's stage has begun!"

When Xin Xin Guang Hui saw Zhong Ming, he quickly pulled his hand and led him to the seat in front of the winner's stage. As the music encouraged her, the horse girl also started to... jump?

Zhong Ming looked at Xiaolimao who was standing in the C position after winning. She was twisting her body while the other horse girls were dancing vigorously.

"What is that?" Zhong Ming asked.

"It should be... a festival dance?"

"Does the winner's stage have such a wide range of dances?"

"No, I don't think that's the case." Brand New Glory lowered his head and covered his face.

Zhong Ming also heard the friendly laughter from the audience nearby, and he also lowered his head and acted like an ostrich.

I'll enroll her in a dance class when I get back, Zhong Ming thought.

After the race, Zhong Ming originally planned to celebrate with Oguruma and take the two horse girls out for a big meal, but when he saw that he was short of money, he could only go back to Kasamatsu Tressen Canteen to eat. As a result, Zhong Ming was given a death stare by the head chef for a long time.

Xiao Limao took the empty plate and continued to serve. Xin Xin Guanghui asked Zhong Ming, "Why did the people from the academy ask you to come over just now?"

Zhong Ming ate his spaghetti in big mouthfuls and said casually: "Rudolph symbolizes that the little chestnut hat should be transferred to the central competition."

"Oh, is that so... Eh!?" Brand New Glory slammed the table in shock, "Did you agree to this?"

"Not yet, it depends on her own wishes." Zhong Ming shrugged.

"But as long as you refuse, Oguruma will not go to the central office." Seeing that the loud voice attracted the attention of other people in the cafeteria, the new light hurriedly whispered to Zhong Ming: "Even the legendary horse racing girl Rudolph can't say anything."

The new brilliance looked at Zhong Ming and was stunned for a moment, and said: "Are you dragging him down, or do you also think that Xiaoli should go to the central government?"

Zhong Ming's cheeks were bulging with noodles. He tilted his head and said, "Jili Gulu Jili Gulu..."

"Don't play dumb!" New Glory waved his fist.

Seeing Xiao Limao bringing over two kilograms of pasta, Xin Xin Guanghui immediately stopped talking and lowered her head.

Come to think of it, Shin Shining herself is a horse girl with no talent, and trainer Zhong Ming is a rookie trainer, but Oguruma has shown extraordinary talent since the beginning of the school year, and it would be the biggest waste to keep a horse girl like her in Kasamatsu.

But although I understand it rationally, I don’t understand it emotionally. Xiao Limao is not only Zhong Ming’s horse racing girl, but also her only friend.

"Xiaoli..." the new light suddenly said.

"?" Xiao Limao stuffed his mouth with noodles and turned to look at the new Guanghui.

"I'll go get you some more bread. Kasamatsu's bread is delicious. You can't get it anywhere else, not even the central..." Brand New Glory paused and smiled.

"Hmm!" Little Chestnut's eyes suddenly became starry when he heard the word "food".

Xiaolimao swallowed the noodles in his mouth and said to Zhong Ming: "Which competition is next? I heard from my classmates that we are going to participate in the Tokai Darby. Then we will run in the Zhongjing Cup and the Golden Youth Cup."

"Donghae Dabi...?" Zhong Ming paused.

"We made an appointment, didn't we?" Xiao Limao smiled broadly at Zhong Ming. She had just finished the competition and there were still stains on her face that had not been wiped off. Her white horse ears stood up, making her look like a mud rabbit.

"Yeah." Zhong Ming responded softly, and said, "Let's go back after eating. We still have to train tonight. Even if we win the game, we can't slack off."

"it is good!"

Shining Glory came back with a plate piled high with bread. Looking at the excited Little Chestnut Hat, his horse ears gradually drooped.

Although she was reluctant to let Oguruma leave, what she didn't want most was to be a burden to him.

Xin Xin Guanghui looked at Zhong Ming's smiling face, and his horse ears lowered to his head.

What to do, drag that down...

……

After returning to the dormitory to rest, Zhong Ming and Xiao Limao walked back home. The moonlight was just right, shining on the two people who were walking slowly on the street.

Zhong Ming pressed Xiaolimao's head and smiled, "How was the competition with Fujimasa March?"

"She is a very strong opponent. I felt my heart beating fast when racing with her. A strong opponent makes one's heart excited. The horse girl in the East Sea Darby must be such a strong opponent." Oguruma said, pressing his chest.

"That's true, but when it comes to strong opponents, there are more horse girls in the center, such as the recently enrolled Emperor of the East Sea and Mu Bai McQueen, as well as Special Zhou and the like..." Zhong Ming gave an example, "Only when you meet strong opponents can you truly shine."

"Yes." Xiao Limao nodded vigorously and smiled at Zhong Ming: "If I can race with them, then I'll ask you to help me train so that I can beat them!"

Xiao Limao's eyes were full of expectations and a desire to win. Zhong Ming paused for a moment without answering, looking at the street ahead and smiled, "We're almost home, get ready for training!"

Zhong Ming saw his face reflected in the wide-angle mirror at the turn in front of him, and suddenly remembered the expression on the face of the Tokyo team's leader when he was rejected by him.

“It’s really ugly.”

Chapter 19 So Shining, So Smiling

"The noodles are ready. Do you want to add the cilantro and green onions? The toast over there, Little Chestnut, is ready. Please bring it out for me. I'll put the fried eggs on it and the sandwich will be ready."

Zhong Ming was preparing dinner in an orderly manner in front of the stove. It had become a routine for him to make supper every night after accompanying Xiao Limao to exercise. Thanks to this, Zhong Ming's wallet was depleted twice as fast and could only last for about a week.

Is this the reason why they say a horse cannot grow fat without night grass... Zhong Ming thought as he looked at Xiao Limao who was swallowing his saliva while holding a sandwich beside him.

Zhong Ming stretched out his hand and pinched Xiao Limao's thigh, saying: "There is no excess fat, all muscles are suitable for running. A large amount of food every day is converted into physical strength and muscle consumption, and the progress is very fast."

Xiao Li Mao looked at Zhong Ming who was pinching his thigh and said, "Do all trainers pinch Uma Musume's thighs like this?"

"of course."

Zhong Ming didn't know what other horse racing girls' trainers did, but he didn't treat the horse racing girls as the opposite sex. After all, it was difficult for Zhong Ming to treat a humanoid creature whose average speed on the road exceeded that of a two-cylinder engine car as a normal opposite sex.

However, because he was a trainer, Zhong Ming naturally treated them as friends who needed care.

Xiaolimao didn't know whether she should say it or not. Being pinched by Zhong Ming like this, she seemed to want to pull her legs back.

It was obviously not like this a month ago, but as time went by, it seemed that Zhong Ming's contact with her made her feel uncomfortable, but it didn't seem like she hated it.

"Okay, let's eat."

"it is good!"

Xiao Limao immediately put aside his irrelevant thoughts, sat at the table and gobbled the cooked noodles, his cheeks puffed up instantly.

After finishing her meal, Oguruma felt sleepy. Her eyelids drooped and then opened again. Finally, she couldn't help but fell asleep on the tatami.

"Is it really like this again?"

Zhong Ming looked at the sleeping Xiao Limao helplessly. She would lie down and sleep on the spot after eating almost every day. As a result, the house rented for her could not be used.

Wait, there seems to be 400,000 yen for the Youth Crown Tournament. As a trainer, I can only take one tenth of it. But after deducting the food expenses for Oguruma, there doesn’t seem to be much left. Add to that the rent, utilities, and replacement training equipment, and I won’t be able to hold out for much longer...

Zhong Ming scratched his head.

However, if Oguruma goes to the central government, the economic pressure will be relieved a lot.

Zhong Ming looked at the white-haired horse girl sleeping on the tatami, her chest rising and falling with her sleeping breathing, and her eyelashes trembling slightly.

Zhong Ming looked at her sleeping face, paused for a moment, took out a quilt from the cupboard to cover her. He also tidied up the table in the room, took out his own bedding and slept away from Xiao Limao.

Two hours later, the full moon was high in the sky. Xiao Limao turned over in his sleep and curled up beside Zhong Ming.

……

Zhongjing Cup.

In the lounge of the Zhongming Lisong Racecourse, the strengths of the opponents in the race and the opponents who need to be paid attention to are marked on the whiteboard.

"Just like last time, the opponent you should pay the most attention to this time is Fujimasa March, but you can't forget number one and number seven. You will be running number twelve in the inner circle this time. Stay in the middle group at the start, and then observe your opponent before deciding when to sprint..."

Xiaolimao nodded, and when the time came, he followed the racecourse staff to the venue.

Brand New Glory said to Zhong Ming: "Drag that, haven't you told Xiaoli yet?"

“She didn’t ask me.”

"What an ostrich mentality." Brand New Glory looked down on him, took out a newspaper and put it on the table, saying, "But it seems that the news has been released. This is this morning's newspaper. You and Xiaoli were doing morning exercises so you probably didn't see it."

"No, I don't have enough money to buy a newspaper with my savings."

"This isn't something to brag about, oh, Drag Na-san."

Zhong Ming took the newspaper and unfolded it, and the large-font headline on the front page caught his eye.

"Oguruma will be transferred to the central government!?"

"That's really concise." Zhong Ming said with a smile.

……

One thousand two hundred meters?

Oguruma looked at Kasamatsu's sandy track and thought, let's sprint about 300 meters from the finish line, but Fujimasa March might sprint earlier, should I catch up...

For some reason, Oguruma felt that the horse girls around her were looking at her, and unlike before, they seemed to have different looks in their eyes.

"Tap, tap, tap."

A series of hurried footsteps.

Xiao Limao turned her head to look, but was grabbed tightly by the collar. Because the man was so excited and powerful, she couldn't help but take two steps back before she could steady herself.

"You, what are you doing!!" Fujimasa roared at Oguruma, and his already ferocious red eyes looked even more terrifying.

Xiao Limao was stunned for a moment.

At this time, she heard the horse racing girls next to her whispering, "Is Xiao Limao going to transfer to the central government? Doesn't that mean he can't participate in the East Sea Darby?"

"I'm sure I can't participate, but not only Tokai Darby, but even the trainers can't go. Most of our trainers in Kasamatsu don't have the qualification certificates of the central government."

"I... am going to the central area?"

Xiao Limao was stunned for a moment, and suddenly a new light and Zhong Ming's words flashed through his mind.

"Kasamatsu's bread is so delicious. You can't get it anywhere else, not even in the central area..."

"That's true, but when it comes to strong opponents, there are more horse girls in the center, such as the recently enrolled East Sea Emperor and Mu Bai McQueen, as well as Special Week and the like..."

original,

Is that so?

The collar was tightly grabbed, making it difficult for Oguruma to breathe. Fujimasa looked at Oguruma's incredulous expression with a fierce look, and cried in his roar: "Didn't you say you would compete with me in the East Sea Competition? Why did you go to the central area? You are treating me like a fool."

Little Chestnut Hat stood there in a daze, not even noticing when someone walked into the horse gate.

I'm going to Central.

So she would never again wake up in Zhong Ming's room, rub her eyes and sit up to watch him make breakfast for her, and then run along the Nagara River towards Jinhua Mountain; he would no longer correct her running posture behind her, even if she ran wrong on purpose; she would no longer return to Zhong Ming's house to continue night training after training with Xin Xin Guang Hui, and then lie down on the tatami to sleep after eating his midnight snack, and when she opened her eyes, she would not see him pinching the light cord with his toes to turn off the light.

I don't know any more.

"boom."

When Little Chestnut Hat came to his senses, the gate in front of him had already opened. The horse racing girls had rushed out without him knowing it, and Little Chestnut Hat also ran out subconsciously.

"The gate opened, and the horse girls started off very smoothly... Hey, Oguruma actually made a mistake at the start. She started two seconds after the gate opened. Was it because of her running shoes? But she quickly entered the middle group. As expected of a horse girl who will be transferred to the central group, her strength is not on the same level as ordinary horse girls."

"The race has reached the middle and late stages, and it's time to sprint at any time. A Uma Musume has sprinted, but Oguruma hasn't. Is she waiting for a better opportunity? There are only 300 meters left to the finish line!"

"Little Chestnut hasn't sprinted yet. She's still waiting. There are only 200 meters left. Isn't this a bit too risky..."

Is a sprint really necessary?

Xiao Limao looked at the finish line which was only 200 meters away, but his legs were reluctant to move forward.

Even if I continue to run, Zhong Ming and the new glory will only get further and further away from me. In that case... wouldn't it be better not to run?

Xiao Limao looked at the ground with a confused look in his eyes.

"...Little Chestnut Hat!"

Xiaolimao suddenly heard a voice, turned around and saw the viewing platform closest to the stadium, and Zhong Ming shouted at her.

"Sprint!"

When Xiaolimao heard this, he stomped his feet hard on the ground and dived forward suddenly!

"Oguruma sprinted, she surpassed five horse girls in a row and came to the front, but Fujimasa March was already waiting for her here, and would not give up the victory easily. Who will the glory of victory shine on? There are only 50 meters left to the finish line!

Half a horse's body,

Little chestnut hat!"
