The mediocre trainer doesn't want to reopen

Even in the previous round with Miyu, Kitano had never confirmed the relationship with Miyu. They had always been in a very healthy relationship as horse girl and trainer. Although Kitano seemed to have some ideas at that time, as long as the relationship was not confirmed, he would not do anything that crossed the line with Miyu.

Although his relationship with Mi Yu seemed to be similar to that of now at that time, and he had massaged her feet or legs more than once, he was just doing his own thing with peace of mind, relieving Mi Yu's stress and relaxing her nerves.

After all, compared to romance, the hidden danger of Mi Yu's legs is what makes Kitano more worried, especially after the lesson learned in the previous week, Kitano now dares not let Mi Yu do anything that will put her legs at risk.

"How is it, Miyu-san? Does it hurt?"

"Well...it was a little painful at the beginning, but after getting through it, I got used to it." And now the rice bath seemed to be much more relaxing, because Kitano really didn't do anything that crossed the line except the normal massage process.

At the beginning, Kitano applied some strange liquid that looked like milk and felt like shower gel on Miyu's legs. After applying it on Miyu's feet, Miyu felt that her feet seemed to be whiter. Then he began the normal massage stage.

Massage is indeed painful at first for people who are not used to it. Mi Yu quickly changed from being shy at the beginning to being able to endure the pain, and immediately forgot about his previous thoughts.

Compared to Mi Yu's endurance, Kitano's grip was much stronger, and he didn't feel any enjoyment at all, but Mi Yu endured it without a sound.

After washing Miyu's feet with clean water again, Kitano took out the sea salt he had fried earlier, grabbed a handful and covered his hands with it. Then he said to Miyu, "This is fried sea salt. It will be a little hot and rough. But it can remove dead skin. Miyu, are you ready?"

"Well, don't worry, my feet still feel warm now."

Mi Yu also smiled and nodded, allowing Kitano to do various work on her feet. At this moment, she was completely sure that Kitano was really just taking care of and massaging her feet, and the things she thought in her mind were purely her own imagination.

Thinking of this, Mi Yu's cheeks turned slightly red with embarrassment. She was holding a pillow in her arms, and she buried her cheek under the pillow to hide her shyness.

"Trainer Kitano... is really good at massage. Mi Yu, can I come to see you in the future?" As if to ease her embarrassment, Mi Yu started to make small talk, but as soon as she opened her mouth, she said something that made her feel embarrassed.

"You're welcome anytime." Bei Ye chuckled when he heard that, and looked up at Mi Yu and said, "I won't feel tired at all when I give you a massage."

"Yes, really..." Mi Yu's face turned even redder when she heard that, but she didn't seem to want to be controlled by Kitano all the time, so she couldn't help but say, "Mi Yu, this is my first time having a massage too. I heard from some seniors that massages are very comfortable, and they seem to particularly like to have their trainers give them a massage."

"I've also read a lot of horsegirl novels, where the trainers have mastered some special magical abilities, and even fractures can be healed through massage and acupuncture, and after doing it, all the fatigue of the day is gone."

"Don't believe what's in these novels, Mi Yu." Bei Ye paused for a moment before solemnly saying to Mi Yu, "These are all fabricated nonsense. This world doesn't have such magical abilities. Unless that person is blessed by the Three Goddesses, or possesses some abilities not possessed by ordinary people, don't ever think that this world has a way to heal fractures and fatigue."

"Mi Yu, you'd better not hold on to such thoughts. The only way to relieve stress and fatigue is to make reasonable arrangements and rest. There is no other way."

"Just like what happened today, I can give you a massage to relieve the stress from over-exercise, but I can only do it once. Even if I can do it for you two, three, or even a hundred times, these are just temporary solutions. There's no way to truly cure your fatigue."

"If you don't rest well, no matter how much massage and acupuncture you do, it will be useless. These can't completely eliminate your fatigue and hidden dangers. The only way to solve these problems is to never do things beyond your ability."

Kitano's words were serious, full of a strong sense of preaching, and not at all gentle. But Mi Yu seemed to be in a trance for a moment when he heard it.

Suddenly, something flashed through Mi Yu's mind, and several scenes flashed before her eyes.

"Mi Yu, I can't allow you to do such high-intensity training anymore!"

"Yes, I know! You want to surpass Mejiro McQueen! If you don't do this, you won't be able to surpass Mejiro McQueen! I know! But what if you can't surpass him?!"

"Rather than surpassing those so-called genius horse girls, I hope you're okay! Mi Yu! Never do anything beyond your limits! Never do it! You must listen to me on this matter, and you are not allowed to refute me!"

"Now, give me your weights. Also, I won't allow you to buy any more weights. If I ever find out you're not following my training schedule again, I'll no longer have you as my horse racing girl!"

……

"what."

In a trance, Mi Yu seemed to come back to her senses, and in that scene, Mi Yu saw that figure, which was miraculously corresponding to Kitano in front of her at the moment, and overlapped at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Same body shape, same height, even the face shape and hairstyle are exactly the same. Most importantly, the tone of Kitano's speech just now was very similar to the tone of the person he saw in a trance.

Although a little fierce, the feeling of wholeheartedly considering her, the warmth, the concern, are exactly the same...

Oh, why... my heart is beating so fast suddenly.

Suddenly, Mi Yu subconsciously covered her chest. For some reason, at this moment, when she looked at Kitano again, she felt her heart beating very actively.

It was an unbearable heartbeat. What on earth was going on? Why did I feel... my face was so red...

Chapter 055: Mi Yu's catharsis, the brother who can't be avoided

The last set of procedures was completed quickly. After Kitano skillfully washed the sea salt off the feet for the rice bath, and then removed the cupping jar for the angle of the rice bath, the process was finally completed.

"Alright, this will make you feel more comfortable tomorrow, Miyu. However, as I said before, this process only treats the symptoms, not the root cause. It will feel much easier, but for the safety of your legs, Miyu, it's best not to add unnecessary training to yourself without authorization, especially this kind of high-intensity training."

Kitano put away his tools, while Miyu remained silent as he straightened his trouser legs and put on his shoes. Kitano's already nagging voice continued, "Undergoing high-intensity training without the help of a professional trainer, and without professional knowledge and guidance, will only ruin your body before you become an excellent horse girl. Don't be reckless in this regard just because you're a horse girl."

"The Three Goddesses won't pay attention to every Uma Musume. If you want to maintain your career and not just be a flash in the pan, you should train according to the normal process in the future."

Kitano was really worried about Miyu, but he really didn't know how to persuade this child who was no longer his horse girl and seemed to want to win the selection competition very much.

Kitano was of course very clear about Mi Yu's hard work and perseverance, and it was precisely because of this that he knew that once Mi Yu made up her mind to do something, it was really difficult to persuade her. Don't look at this child who seems to be weak and easy to talk to, but that is just a daily routine. Deep down, Mi Yu's stubbornness is really among the top three among the horse girls Kitano has ever met.

When he was Mi Yu's trainer, he had to use his most reluctant trump card to make Mi Yu obey him. But now he really has no way to stop Mi Yu. He can't break her legs just to prevent her from training, right?

Children who pursue their dreams are never wrong. Even if their methods are wrong, their efforts cannot be denied. If even their efforts are denied, their struggles will only seem worthless and they will live like zombies.

All Kitano can do is what he can do as a trainer. He cannot stop these children from running forward, which is tantamount to depriving them of the meaning of their existence.

Then, all he could do was to persuade them as much as possible, to try to make them change their minds, even if there was only a glimmer of hope, even though he knew that his only possibility would be to return empty-handed.

"Mi Yu, you should take a short break from tomorrow's training. You don't need to come over. This is to ensure that your leg muscles and bones can relax."

After a long time, Kitano didn't get a reply from Miyu. Kitano, who was absorbing the information, didn't hear the door closing. He turned around and asked in surprise, "Miyu? I'm talking about you..."

"puff."

However, before Kitano could finish his words, a dark figure suddenly flashed before his eyes and in the blink of an eye, it threw itself into Kitano's arms. Before Kitano could react, he felt a petite figure with the unique scent of sweat mixed with that of a horse girl, and her arms tightly wrapped around his abdomen.

"Yes, sorry!"

Mi Yu, who had performed such an abnormal set of actions, now didn't know whether she was too shy or had given up, but she hugged Kitano tightly and refused to let go. She pressed her cheek tightly against Kitano's chest, her cheeks flushed, and her watery eyes even began to shed tears.

But even so, Mi Yu showed no sign of letting go, instead he hugged her even tighter.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry... Mi Yu... I know it's wrong to do this... But, but Mi Yu can't control myself..."

"Why, why do you care so much about Mi Yu? Trainer Kitano... You are not Mi Yu's trainer yet, why do you want Mi Yu to think that you care so much, why do you want... to make Mi Yu think that it must be you..."

"Mi Yu's trainer...must be Trainer Kitano...it's this idea, this idea, that's why Mi Yu works so hard, so hard to catch up with everyone else..."

"It's so strange. When Mi Yu saw Trainer Kitano, her heart started beating non-stop. Why was she so happy and couldn't help herself?"

Even now, it was the same. Mi Yu was not a person who was very good at expressing her inner feelings. She and Kitano were the same type of people. They were both very good at suppressing their true emotions. They would try hard to restrain their negative emotions in order not to affect others. However, when they broke out, they would often make many extreme reactions.

In a sense, she is the type of person who "gets very angry when an honest person gets angry", but now, Mi Yu can no longer control the surging emotions in her heart. She feels that if she continues to endure, her heart will jump out.

That impulse, as if the person in front of him was the one he had been looking for, and he wanted to confide in him his still unclear thoughts and feelings, became the psychological emotion that Mi Yu could not suppress at this moment.

"Trainer Kitano...Miyu, can you really win the trials?"

"Mi Yu..." Kitano was now hugged by Mi Yu and could not do anything for a moment. He really didn't know why Mi Yu suddenly broke out in emotion, but in this state, he had encountered this kind of situation before.

The best way now is to listen to Mi Yu talk. This child often feels uncomfortable when she has an emotional outburst. The best way is to be a good listener and guide her to say everything she wants.

"Mi Yu, what happened? What happened?"

"No...it's just...Miyu really hopes to become Trainer Kitano's horse girl." Miyu replied sullenly, "Trainer Kitano is the best person to Miyu besides my family. Although I've only known Trainer Kitano for three days, I really feel that Trainer Kitano is someone who truly treats me well."

"Mi Yu doesn't want to lose, but...Mi Yu doesn't have the confidence to defeat Bourbon, and even less the confidence to defeat Di Wang classmate...they are both too strong."

"Mi Yu doesn't want to. After a week, Trainer Kitano will no longer have anything to do with Mi Yu. Mi Yu doesn't want to be separated from Trainer Kitano who is so good to her."

"So... do you understand? Mi Yu's thoughts."

I see. Kitano suddenly understood what was going on and now understood what Mi Yu was thinking.

Mi Yu is a shy child, and the reason for her shyness is actually because she always has a bit of "bad luck constitution". It seems that wherever Mi Yu is, some unlucky things are always likely to happen, such as there will be an unusually large number of red lights, or it may suddenly rain when the sky is clear, etc. Because Mi Yu does not want to trouble others, she almost keeps to herself and is quite lonely.

And now, although Kitano thinks he has not done anything, he may be one of the few people in the academy who has shown goodwill towards Mi Yu. Moreover, he is also a trainer and is still "hot". Mi Yu wants to win the selection fair and square, but finds that he is not capable enough.

So, today's events happened. Mi Yu wanted to train herself cruelly within this week, but was stopped in time by Kitano. However, if she didn't do this, it would be almost impossible for her to win Bourbon and the East China Sea Emperor, so she was so frustrated.

To put it bluntly, Mi Yu didn't want the only person who loved her to be separated from her. For such a request... even Kitano couldn't think of any reason to refuse.

"It's okay, Miyu." Beiye, who had figured out what was going on, smiled gently, patted Miyu on the back, and said softly to this adorable child whom he felt he couldn't resist: "If you feel lonely, Miyu, just treat me as your family and confide in me. By the way, didn't you say that only your family treats you so well? Then, treat me as Miyu's family."

"If I could have a sister like Mi Yu, I would be very happy."

"A sister like Mi Yu?"

But Kitano's words made Miyu seem to come back to her senses. She stared at Kitano blankly, and after a long time, she reacted and said, "Trainer Kitano... Do you want to be Miyu's brother?"

"Is it okay? I won't refuse." Kitano smiled and encouraged Mi Yu.

"Brother?" Mi Yu asked tentatively.

"Yeah." Kitano nodded slightly. Hearing this familiar name made him feel better.

"Brother."

"I'm here."

“Brother-sama, Brother-sama! Brother-sama!!”

Mi Yu repeated this name over and over again, which seemed to have some magical power over her. She regained her vitality at a speed visible to the naked eye. Even her ears, which had been drooping for a long time, stood up, and her tail behind her swung happily and violently.

"Brother-sama! Trainer Kitano is now Miyu's brother-sama!"

"Miyu has a new family, Miyu, Miyu is really happy!"

Mi Yu's excitement and joy were visible to the naked eye, and he couldn't even hide it. Seeing this, Bei Ye couldn't help but rub Mi Yu's little head and said with a chuckle, "So, now you don't have to worry, right? Mi Yu?"

"Yeah!" Mi Yu nodded heavily, revealing an exceptionally sweet smile, and said happily: "Mi Yu has a big brother now. Big brother will never be separated from Mi Yu, right?"

"Don't worry, Mi Yu, Mi Yu will listen to Brother!"

"Then go back and rest, Miyu." Kitano was relieved to see that Miyu's emotions were finally under control, and spoke to Miyu as if he were a trainer.

"Yes! See you tomorrow, Onii-sama!"

This time, Mi Yu was as obedient as Kitano remembered, and quickly left Kitano's dormitory with a cheerful pace. Seeing this, Kitano slowly breathed a sigh of relief, but still couldn't help feeling happy for Mi Yu's familiar name just now.

As expected... no man can resist being called "Brother" sweetly and with admiration by such a lovely girl.

Just when Kitano thought that the matter was finally over, suddenly, the dormitory door opened again, and Mi Yu's little face, which had suddenly deflated, appeared at the door again.

"Rice bath?"

"Brother..." Mi Yu looked very embarrassed, her cheeks flushed as she said, "Mi Yu, I checked the time. It seems that the curfew time has passed."

"Mi Yu can't go back to the dormitory, so, can Mi Yu stay with Brother for one night?"

"..." No, this silly girl needs to be watched carefully by myself. She looks so cute and silly. If she hadn't met him, she would have been eaten up by some bad guys. She knows how to tease people.

Kitano was also feeling a little tired. He really had a "sister" who never grew up.

Chapter 056: The bold idea of ​​rapid expansion of rice bath

The next morning, Kitano was not woken up by the nagging of the three goddesses, nor by the alarm clock ringing, which he would eventually stop listening to no matter what his favorite song was. Instead, he was awakened by the temptation of a fragrant smell.

Kitano rubbed his eyes, and with his mind not particularly clear, he groped his way from his room to the living room - the kitchen and living room of the dormitory were integrated, and if he could smell the fragrance now, it must be from the direction of the living room.

When Kitano just opened the door, he found that the living room was already filled with this fragrance, which continuously attacked Kitano's nostrils. Under this scent, Kitano also clearly saw a petite figure with long black hair wearing sportswear and an apron who was busy at the stove in the kitchen.

"Rice bath?"

"Ah, brother, brother-sama!"

Hearing Kitano's call from behind, Miyu immediately turned around. She had found a black apron somewhere in the room. Perhaps it was specially prepared by the school for trainees who could cook? However, Kitano didn't find the apron anywhere, and he didn't like to cook...

However, it must be said that Miyu with an apron on looked much cuter than Kitano had expected. For a moment, Kitano really felt that Miyu was his biological sister.

A brother and sister who have left their parents to live in the city. The older brother is used to being taken care of by his younger sister, while the gentle younger sister is diligently taking care of their daily lives and preparing a hearty breakfast for her older brother.

——This is simply the standard happy life of the male protagonist in Japanese comics. Thinking of this, Kitano also felt that his luck had suddenly changed this round. He had just made up his mind to live a good life no matter what happened, and his luck this round was better than any previous time.

So soon he had a sister like Mi Yu, and now, the selection competition that will begin in a while will also determine his position as the "number one person". Although the situation seems to have become clearer with the addition of the East China Sea Emperor, Kitano does not think that the East China Sea Emperor will definitely win.

Miura Bourbon, Miyu, Saint King Halo, Mejiro Zenshin, and a large number of other horse racing girls who are not as eye-catching as them but may play a miraculous role in the competition, may all get this seat.

Moreover, his interpersonal relationships are very healthy and safe now. He does not have any ill will from the trainers like before, nor does he have any unfriendly relationships with other horse girls. Everything is going smoothly.

It seems that good times are waving to me! When Kitano thought of this, his mood also improved a lot. At the moment, facing the lovely Miyu in front of him, Kitano, who was in a good mood, greeted her very gently: "Good morning, Miyu, I'm so glad to see you so early."

"Hehe... Brother-sama is really something, always saying things that make Miyu embarrassed."

Although she was a little embarrassed, after the talk last night, Mi Yu seemed to be more adapted to their current relationship than yesterday. With her cheeks slightly rosy, she quickly put herself into the role of "sister" and smiled at Kitano, "Breakfast is almost ready. Brother, go wash up and get ready to sit down for breakfast. Didn't we agree to train with everyone today?"

"That's true... But speaking of which, it was really hot last night. I'm sweating all over now."

Kitano also felt strange. Could it be that he had been getting a massage last night, and his body was getting hot after a while? This kind of thing had happened before, but usually he would have noticed it, like kicking off the covers in a daze when feeling hot in the middle of the night. But this morning, he was covered tightly with the covers.

When this was mentioned, Mi Yu's face changed slightly, and she subconsciously blushed a little. But because of this, Mi Yu, feeling embarrassed, went forward and pushed Bei Ye to the bathroom, saying angrily: "Alright, go wash up, brother, if you wait any longer, the breakfast will get cold."

After half-heartedly sending Kitano to the bathroom and making sure that Kitano was not aware of her situation, Mi Yu couldn't help but cover her cheeks, feeling ashamed of her bold behavior late last night.
