Tresen Red Line Domination

“I bought this with my own savings as a way of repaying you two for your support and hard work over the past six months. It makes me a little uncomfortable to say it so bluntly, but the past six months of fighting and struggling with you have been the happiest time of my life since graduation. I hope I can spend the entire next year with you as well!” Zhong Ming sat upright and bowed slightly to the two horse racing girls.

Xiaolimao took the black box and hugged it to his chest, nodding vigorously and said, "I also think it's great to work hard with Zhong Ming. Please take care of me for the next year."

Brand New Glory also took the black box and said shyly, "Me... me too."

She is usually the best at speaking, but when it comes to expressing her true feelings, she becomes extremely shy and pretentious, unable to speak.

After the three of them finished speaking, they looked at each other in silence. For a moment, the atmosphere in the room was one of everyone looking at each other, not knowing what to say. Instead, it felt like the awkwardness of a blind date.

Zhong Ming was awakened when he saw the clock on the wall: "It's not even twelve o'clock yet, and it's not New Year's Day yet. Isn't it too early to send it out now?"

But since it had been sent out, they didn't care about the one or two hours. The two horse girls opened the box and found a complete set of kimonos inside.

White peonies are embroidered on Oguruma's kimono with fine stitches, with the white peonies set against a bright red background - the flower language of white peony is kingly demeanor, as well as the pursuit and yearning for beautiful things.

The brand new and glorious kimono is painted with double-petal chrysanthemums with the same exquisite embroidery. The pure white background is matched with light yellow double-petal chrysanthemums - the flower language of double-petal chrysanthemums is, I share your sorrows and joys.

The two horse girls' eyes sparkled and they smiled happily as they looked at the kimonos in their hands.

"But... I don't know how to wear a kimono." Oguruma suddenly said.

"I don't know either." Xin Xin Guanghui said embarrassedly.

Zhong Ming was shocked. You two purebred racehorse girls from Japan don’t even know this. How is this appropriate?

But it seems quite normal. In ancient China, it would take a hundred servants to help put on a set of clothes. Japan inherited this complicated costume during the Tang Dynasty. Although it did not require a hundred people, it still required fifty people to help.

Moreover, the kimono that Zhong Ming bought in the Uma Musume shop was the most authentic one, which was the treatment that one would get from an emperor or princess. It would cost at least 10 million yen to buy a set of kimonos. It is completely different from those 50-yuan kimonos sold on Taobao and Pinduoduo.

Zhong Ming didn't know whether to scold the system or praise it. Why did it give him such nice clothes?

system:"……"

Tomorrow is New Year's Day and of course he has to wear new clothes, otherwise it would be a waste for Zhong Ming to buy two sets of clothes from the profiteer in the system. Zhong Ming hurriedly went online to check how to wear a kimono, but his brain was overwhelmed after searching online. How to place the kyoujin and jinfuku of the kimono, and the sodetsu and sodashi were too long and needed to be cut, which made Zhong Ming feel like a professor of ancient Japanese studies.

Xiaolimao and Xinxinguanghui looked at Zhong Ming who was having a headache in front of the computer, and smiled at each other while holding the kimonos that Zhong Ming gave them.

Although it has not been easy to exercise every day in the past six months, I am indeed very happy every day with Zhong Ming.

It took Zhong Ming a whole night to investigate, and when he came to his senses, it was already New Year's Day.

The air was a little chilly in the early morning, but outside the window one could hear the landlady delivering New Year's goods to the tenants, and their polite and enthusiastic voices reached Zhong Ming's ears.

Xiaolimao and Xinxin Guanghui were sleeping next to him, and Zhong Ming woke them both up. New Year's Day was the first day of the new year, so they couldn't sleep in. Besides, they had to go to the temple to worship Hatsumode later, and if they went too late, there would be too many people.

Zhong Ming spent a whole night finally understanding how to wear kimonos. After they finished washing up, he put the clothes on the two of them and started helping them put them on. He was a little excited because he finally learned it and forgot he was working on them. When they came to their senses, they both stared at him in a daze.

"I was a little excited now that I knew how to put it on. Sorry!" Zhong Ming apologized quickly. He saw that one of his hands was still on Xiaolimao's waist, and he quickly withdrew it.

"No, after all, I don't know how to wear it, it's normal." Xiao Li Mao was stunned for a moment and said.

"Yes, yes, it's our fault that we don't know how to wear it!" Xin Xin Guanghui was stunned for a moment and laughed.

Zhong Ming then lowered his head and breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that his two horse girls were not pretentious people. They probably understood his improper actions just now as the normal interaction between a trainer and a horse girl. That was great.

When he couldn't see, Little Chestnut Hat and New Glory looked at each other, their cheeks flushed, and their eyes met and then looked away uncomfortably.

Zhong Ming continued to help them put on their kimonos and tied the Taiko knot at the back of their kimonos. The Taiko knot has two functions: tightening the waist and straightening the chest, which is essential for beauty. Zhong Ming complained about the vulgarity of the Japanese in his heart while helping them tie the knot.

Looking up, the good figures of the two horse racing girls were indeed on display. The horse racing girls have been exercising all year round and have slim bodies without any extra fat, with long legs and thin waists. After being dressed like this, they look as youthful and beautiful as blooming roses.

Ogumi's hat is taller than Xinxin Guanghui's, and her chest is much fuller than hers. The belt just highlights her roundness and beauty. The white peony on the front of the kimono, that is, the lapel, appears even bigger.

Although Xin Xin Guanghui is a little short, her body proportions are not a problem. She has a slim figure and a wiggly little butt.

Zhong Ming also sighed that his two horse girls were indeed beautiful girls, and put the intricate hairpins that he brought in the kimono box on their heads. The small chestnut hats were in the shape of red flowers, and the new ones were light yellow flowers, which were just right for the color of their clothes.

After helping them get dressed, there was a knock on the door. Judging from the greetings coming from far away, it should be the landlady coming to deliver New Year's goods. Zhong Ming walked quickly over to open the door.

"Aming, Happy New Year. These are the oranges and snacks harvested from my hometown. You and your horse racing wife can enjoy them together." The landlady said kindly.

"No, I've been taken care of by you in the past six months. Xiaoli, please help me get the pastries I bought yesterday from the cupboard..." Zhong Mingdao turned around and said to Xiaolimao.

The landlady looked at the two horse girls wearing exquisite kimonos in Zhong Ming's room and was stunned for a moment: "A Ming, when did you trick the princess of the imperial family to come to our Kasamatsu?"

Chapter 52 Please bring the Fujimasa March to the center, please!

Zhong Ming didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Look carefully, these are my Xiaoli and Guanghui."

The landlady looked at the two beautiful horse racing girls in the room and covered her mouth with her hands in surprise. They were indeed the two who usually went out early and came back late, always with Zhong Ming, wearing sportswear and sweating all over.

"How come you look so beautiful in your new clothes for the New Year? Here are two boxes of oranges for you." The landlady looked at the two horse racing girls and praised them.

The landlady also had to go and greet other tenants, and she looked at the two gorgeously dressed horse racing girls with a reluctant look in her eyes.

"This dress is really nice, and you look much more energetic. By the way, which one are you going to marry?" the landlady praised and suddenly asked.

"Ah?" Zhong Ming was stunned and waved his hands quickly: "Auntie, you think too much. You don't understand the current relationship between horse girls and trainers. Don't think too much."

The landlady patted Zhong Ming on the shoulder and said with a smile: "I said this because I understand. Haha, you two should work harder."

The landlady turned around and shouted to the two horse racing girls, and then went to the next tenant's house with the New Year's goods to pray for good luck in the new year.

Zhong Ming heard that the landlady didn't seem to be short of money and had several shops in Shibuya, Tokyo. She was just worried about Alzheimer's disease, so she hired tenants she liked to live with her in her hometown of Kasamatsu at a low price and chatted with them when she had nothing to do.

Zhong Ming felt that if he was rich, it wouldn't matter if he developed Alzheimer's disease.

He looked back and found that the two horse girls blushed a little, and when they saw him, they looked away as if they had been electrocuted.

Are you shy because of the praise from the landlady?

Zhong Ming waved to them, put on his coat and said with a smile: "Let's go, Chu Yi!"

Hatsumode refers to the first visit to a shrine in the New Year. It is a traditional custom in Japan, just like paying New Year's greetings on New Year's Eve in China.

It snowed lightly last night, and two centimeters of snow accumulated on the streets. Zhong Ming was glad that he did not spend the New Year in Hokkaido. He spent the New Year in Hokkaido for three years during high school. Hokkaido is vast and sparsely populated, and the snow in winter can bury a person in the snow in half an hour. Every New Year, he would shiver and go to the temple with his high school teammates to pray for blessings, hoping to win the championship in the following year... and learn more hype skills to attract more sponsors.

Perhaps it was God's blessing that they all turned into pathetic hype masters, but they attracted sponsors one by one, and it seemed that they became even more miserable after their fall from evil.

As Zhong Ming walked toward the temple on Jinhua Mountain, he nodded and greeted the shop owners he usually dealt with as he passed by the shopping street, saying Happy New Year.

"Happy New Year, Ming... Damn you two princesses, I'll kowtow to you both!"

But most of them had this reaction after seeing the Little Chestnut Hat and the New Glory.

"Is it because the outfit is too nice and doesn't suit me?" Brand New Glory muttered shyly as he looked at the eyes around him.

Oguruma was quite calm. One shopping street owner directly called out, "Princess, here's some fried rice cake for you." She took the cake with a big mouthful, put it into her mouth, chewed it a few times, and swallowed it. The owner was amazed and said that she was worthy of being a princess and even her appetite was a little bigger than theirs.

Zhong Ming tried to explain to them at first, but later he became too lazy to talk anymore. When he reached the foot of Jinhua Mountain, he saw Fujimasa March who also came to pay homage. She was also wearing a kimono, but the style was much simpler.

When she saw the little chestnut hat, she was also stunned for a moment, but she didn't call her princess like the others did. She said bluntly: "This dress suits you very well."

"Thank you." Little Limao nodded happily.

"Where is Shibasaki?" Zhong Ming asked her. If the horse girl is here, then the trainer should not be far away. It's just like when there is a poisonous snake, there will be an antidote within a hundred meters.

"He said he was too tired to walk and wanted to borrow a bicycle, so I came here first." Fujimasa shrugged.

It seemed that because it was New Year, Fujimasa's ferocious eyes had softened a lot.

"Then let's go together. He will probably have arrived by bike when we get to the top of the mountain." Zhong Ming invited her.

Fujimasa nodded.

Four people walked towards the temple together. At first glance, they looked like two princesses with a servant and a maid.

"Are you planning to join the central government after the New Year?" Fujimasa March asked Zhong Ming.

"If you can pass the exam." Zhong Ming smiled and said, "Do you have this plan?"

"What's the point of going to the central government if I can't even win the East Sea Darby? I'd better continue training in Kasamatsu." Fujimasa March said with a smile.

Two horses were fighting nearby, and Glory was the winner - after Lucky won third place, the new Glory who entered the center was suddenly hit by an arrow and looked away out of guilt.

Although Fujimasa March and Zhong Ming are both in Kasamatsu Teresin, she seldom speaks to Zhong Ming. Today, after talking to her, I found that she is also a simple-minded horse racing girl, but her eyes and obsession with the competition can easily lead to misunderstanding.

However, it would be a pity if she didn't go to the central government given her strength. If she could get in, it would probably put a huge pressure on the horse girls at the central government.

After arriving at the temple on the mountain, there were not many worshippers inside. Zhong Ming led the three horse racing girls to the hand washing room nearby and washed their hands with wooden ladles.

There are many scenes in anime where the heroines drink water in temples with wooden ladles. In fact, the wooden ladles cannot be used to drink directly from the mouth, and one can only scoop a spoonful when washing hands and rinsing mouth. Zhong Ming simply does not rinse his mouth. There are so many people coming and going here, and God knows if it is dirty or not.

Ding Ling clang!

Zhong Ming put four five-yen coins into the cash box.

"It's a burden. How about investing a little more money?" Xin Xin Guang Hui suggested.

"Gods don't need money. We just need to do our best and don't vulgarize the gods." Zhong Ming shook his head.

"Oh!" The three horse racing girls looked at Zhong Ming with admiration.

What Zhong Ming really thought in his heart was - you guys are a bunch of stinky statues that extort money from the people in the temple every day and you still want me to give you more money. I am exploited by Xiao Limao every day and have no way to make money. You are dreaming!

Then the process follows: 'two bows, two claps, one bow', bow twice, clap twice, and bow once.

This completes the worship!

"Hey, there are ema for sale over there. Let's buy a few and write our wishes on them and hang them up!" Xin Xin Guang Hui pulled Zhong Ming's sleeve and pointed to the other side excitedly.

Zhong Ming took a look at the price of the Ema, 500 yen.

I guess you gods knew you couldn't make any money from your believers, so you put it all on the Ema, right? It's just a wooden sign!

But after all, one cannot be too stingy during the New Year. Zhong Ming paid for four ema and distributed them to the three of them. He then wrote their wishes on them and hung them on the wooden board next to them.

"What wish did you make?" Zhong Ming asked curiously.

"I can have enough food every day." Oguruma.

"My current life continues to be happy." A new glory.

"I can run a better result." Fujimasa March.

"..."

Zhong Ming was silent for a moment, then took off his ema, crossed out the words "become a billionaire" and changed them to "world peace".

As a person polluted by the dirty society, he should not tarnish the innocent hearts of the three people, but change to a more noble and glorious wish, lest the eight million gods ignore the good wishes of the three horse girls next to him because of him.

As soon as the ema was hung up, Shibasaki appeared on a bicycle, panting.

"Shibasaki, you're too late. We have all finished paying homage." Zhong Ming teased him as he saw him sweating profusely.

"Stop talking nonsense! It's because your physical strength is too good!" Shibasaki rolled his eyes. Zhong Ming's good physical strength was also well-known among Kasamatsu's trainers.

Shining Glory took Oguruma and Fujimasa March to the side to draw fortunes for the coming year, while Zhong Ming accompanied Shibasaki to pay homage.

"Would you like to drink a sip of the water from the hand-washing toilet?" Zhong Ming suggested maliciously.

Shibasaki ignored him, walked to the temple, clasped his hands together and said, "I hope the eight million gods will take away this bewitching demon next to me, and make him drink the water from the hand-washing temple and have diarrhea for a year."

"That's too much." Zhong Ming complained.

After paying homage, Shibasaki went on to buy an ema and wrote down his wish, but he did not hang it on the board. Instead, he hesitated for a moment and handed it to Zhong Ming.

"What?" Zhong Ming asked puzzledly.

"I heard that you were a very good player in high school and were called Ming Wang, so I hope you can help me realize a wish, or rather, only you can help me realize it." Shibasaki said.

"That's a nickname. I'm not a real god." Zhong Ming frowned.

Shibasaki smiled and stuffed the Ema into Zhong Ming's hand. Zhong Ming looked down at the wish written on the Ema - 'I hope Fujimasa March can step onto the best field.'

Zhong Ming clenched the Ema tightly. He guessed what Shibasaki wanted to say.

"Trainer Zhong Ming, I request you to bring Fujimasa March to the central government. She has a bigger stage waiting for her." Shibasaki took a deep breath and bowed to Zhong Ming.

"please!"

Chapter 53: A Knock on the Door in the Morning

Shibasaki bowed ninety degrees and made an earnest request to Zhong Ming.

Zhong Ming stroked the ema in his hand and frowned, "Have you told Fujimasa about this?"

"Not yet. She would definitely be angry if she knew." Shibasaki straightened up and said.

Zhong Ming rolled his eyes and said, "Who wouldn't be angry if you said something like this on the first day of the new year?"

"But there is nothing I can do." Shibasaki smiled bitterly: "My strength is just like this, but she has a broader stage waiting for her. Fujimasa March is the best horse girl in my training career. It's a shame that I'm still unmarried in my thirties and treat her as my own daughter.
