Chapter 23 Lian Zhan's Decision
"Mi Yu is unfortunate. Mi Yu really brings misfortune to everyone around him, woo woo!"
Higashino Chihiro helplessly held the little Mi Yu in his arms and comforted her: "
This has nothing to do with you, and you didn't stay with Kuronuma-senpai, so don't put all the misfortunes in the world on yourself."
He rubbed her little head and said, "You are just an ordinary horse girl, not some legendary curse wizard. Besides, if we talk about closeness, I am the one closest to you. I am living a good life every day now, and there are no unfortunate phenomena."
After a long period of comfort, Mi Yu finally adjusted his mood.
This child always becomes particularly sensitive after seeing people around him suffer misfortune.
On Sunday, after finishing her paperwork in the office, Chihiro Higashino began to organize the information about Miura Bourbon.
Although he had studied the opponent's data because of Mi Yu's classic competition...but most of the data was only collected on the field, and the data collected from her usual training was very little.
This morning, Senior Kuronuma sent him all the information about Miura Bourbon via email, so he needed to sort it out.
Then, you need to prepare for the subsequent rehabilitation exercises and treatment procedures of Miura Bourbon.
While he was busy, Little Chestnut Hat pulled the door open from the outside.
"Torena-san, I have something to tell you."
"Xiaoli? What's the matter?"
At this time, she should be doing dance training.
"After I mentioned it to you last time, I reconsidered it, but I still think..." Xiaolimao lowered his head slightly, "As expected, I still want to compete with Qingzhu Huiyi!"
"Choose the Mile Championship, or the Japan Cup, and you can compete against Aotake Memories."
Oguri shook her head and looked at Higashino Chihiro. "Torena-san, you know that's not what I want to say. I want to respond to the challenge that Aotake Memories has issued to me. I want to compete with her in both the Mile Championship and the Japan Cup."
Pushing the computer aside, Higashino Chihiro sighed softly, "How many times do you need me to tell you? The answer is of course NO."
A week of consecutive battles is not unprecedented in history...but the result is also very obvious, no one has ever won the second game.
Even a horse girl who had previously won by a large margin at the same distance would lose in the second race of a series.
Moreover, none of the records in those games was the record of two consecutive G1 games. It was precisely because no one had ever achieved it and it was too unbelievable that Chihiro Higashino did not allow Oguri to participate in consecutive games.
"I won't let you participate in the Mile Championship. Just focus on the Japan Cup."
"Do you have any questions?"
Xiao Limao's body trembled slightly, and her hands grasped the hem of her skirt involuntarily, "It's gone...but..."
"Just participating in the Japan Cup... I can't accept it..."
There was a hint of crying in Oguruma's words, which made Higashino Chihiro feel a little uncomfortable.
"This conversation is over, let's go back."
"But! Torena-san! Everyone around us can't just run whenever we want!"
Oguruma said loudly to Higashino Chihiro: "Maybe next time, maybe next time I won't be able to run with her!"
"I understand that."
Xiaolimao thought of the White Fresh Pioneer she met last night. She had fought against the White Fresh Pioneer several times. Originally, the opponent would have participated in this mile championship, but due to injury, she had to withdraw regretfully.
"Don't let yourself have any regrets."
This was the last thing that Bai Xian Xianfeng said to her before they parted yesterday. Xiao Li Mao didn't want to leave any regrets, so: "The Mile Championship and the Japan Cup, both are crucial competitions for me!"
"So, I understand..."
"As for me, I can win every game!"
Faced with Oguruma's roar, Chihiro Higashino couldn't remain indifferent.
"Oguri, your strength is unquestionable, but you are not invincible. Xiao Haiwan is also participating in the Japan Cup this time."
"Although Xiao Haiwan's performance in middle-distance races is slightly worse than yours, it's only slightly worse. Are you so confident that you can beat Xiao Haiwan just one week after running the Mile Championship Cup?"
"What's more, none of your opponents in the Japan Cup are weak. The payment manager who was ahead of you last year will also participate this year. So, are you really confident that you can win?"
"I'm going to win the game!"
Chihiro Higashino looked at Oguruma's eyes that were full of fighting spirit... If she had hesitated a little, he would have ignored Oguruma's excessive request.
"I really lost to you."
Since Oguruma insisted like this, Higashino Chihiro would no longer stop her.
If Ogurume is not allowed to participate in the competition today, the relationship between them will definitely be affected...and, in the future, Ogurume may also be affected by this incident before the competition.
In that case, just agree to it.
"I can agree that you can participate in the Japan Cup after participating in the Mile Championship..."
The little chestnut hat was overjoyed, "Thank you, Torena-san!"
She knew that her trainer was a very reasonable person, and...
The ponytail behind her back swung happily, and the ears that were originally drooping forward suddenly stood up.
"Don't be happy so soon. I have conditions."
"You said."
"After the Mile Championship, before the Japan Cup, if your leg fatigue is not eliminated, you can cancel your participation. Do you have any objection to this?"
Oguruma himself was also very clear that if he went to compete before getting rid of the fatigue, not only would he not be able to display his full strength and win, but he would also most likely get injured if he went to compete like this.
If she got hurt because of this, she would really become a clown.
"No problem, Torenasan, I understand!"
"Also, after the Japan Cup, you will have to rest for at least the next two months."
Little Chestnut skipped away. She was in a good mood and her appetite seemed to have improved a lot, so she was going to the cafeteria to have a meal.
And Chihiro Higashino also put aside the information of Bourbon Miura for the time being... After all, it would take a very long time for her to recover and start training.
"That guy Oguri really adds to my workload."
He first thought about how to make a liquid medicine that could effectively relieve calf fatigue, and then called the Chinese medicine store he had been cooperating with to order medicinal materials.
"You must win, Xiaoli..."
Chapter 24 Choice
"There are two things that need to be discussed in today's meeting."
At the regular meeting on Monday, Chairman Akikawa stood on the podium and looked at the trainers sitting below.
"First, the trainer Black Marsh, who had worked at our academy for twenty years, applied for retirement yesterday."
Chairman Akikawa looked at the trainers who were discussing quietly in the audience and continued, "Here, I would also like to ask all the trainers to take good care of their bodies and not to neglect their own health because they are too concerned about Uma Musume."
Nansaka leaned his head close to Higashino Chihiro and asked what had happened.
"So this is what happened. I thought it was just a common stomach problem, but I didn't expect it to be so serious."
Nanban felt a little regretful, as Senior Kuronuma was the senior who took the best care of him when he first came to Tresen Academy.
Although he is usually serious, he is always the first to lend a helping hand when he is in trouble. Now his team is gradually getting better... However, he did not expect that Senior Kuronuma would leave early.
"So, did Senior ask you to take care of Miura Bourbon?"
Higashino Chihiro nodded and said, "That's true, but she will definitely not be able to participate in the competitions before October next year. Whether she can catch up with the Japan Cup and Arima Memorial next year will also depend on her recovery."
"Then we have to talk about the second thing."
Akikawa Yayoi opened the file and said, "The academy has decided to make some changes to the Sundays from now on. The morning time will be changed to training time, and the afternoon time will be allocated freely by the trainers. It is up to you to decide whether to study vocal music and dance or continue training."
“As for the paperwork on Sunday morning, it will be handed over to someone else.”
Some trainers were dissatisfied. Originally, it only took an hour to process documents in the morning, and then they could rest afterwards. Now they have to work a day on Sunday, even though it was supposed to be working hours.
Chihiro Higashino didn't care. She had nothing to do on Sunday, so it was better this way.
In fact, he had already applied to change the morning time to training time and use the afternoon for classroom learning, but his application had not been accepted.
During the afternoon training, Chihiro Higashino took advantage of the break to talk about these things with everyone.
"Isn't this good? Dance learning and vocal learning are actually almost the same now. Even if there are new pieces and dances to learn, I can master them quickly."
Tamamo Cross and her friends now spend very little time studying in the Vocal Music Building, only going once or twice a month.
Basically, I spent all my time on the training ground doing independent practice.
The other horse racing ladies nodded and said that it didn't matter. Training in the morning was better for them.
"But, Torenasan, I'm surprised you would agree with Oguri participating in both the Mile Championship and the Japan Cup."
Mejiro Aldan said with some concern: "But is this really okay? Fighting two G1-level matches in a week will hurt your legs a lot, right?"
"If I don't let her go, she will probably remember this for the rest of her life." Higashino Chihiro sighed, looking at Oguruma who was communicating with horse girls from other teams not far away. "After all, the Shining Series is a stage set up to realize everyone's dreams... For some horse girls, winning is a way to realize their dreams, while for some horse girls, they will feel very happy just by participating."
"Xiao Cao should be very clear about this. Aren't you and Wulala friends? You should know how she treats the competition, right?"
Kusagami Fei nodded, "Ulala-chan seems to have participated in eight debut matches so far... Although she lost all of them, she seemed very happy every time she competed... And even though she lost, her popularity is still very high."
"So, whether Xiaoli can win or not, I certainly hope she can win. Even if she loses, I still hope that she...
I won’t have any regrets.”
Although a life without regrets is incomplete, no one wants to have regrets, and regrets for a long time.
"Just like you, Aldan. You took the risk of not being able to run again but still wanted to participate in the competition. You also wanted to show your value in the Shining Series. You also didn't want to have any regrets."
"but……"
Higashino Chihiro looked at everyone and said, "Don't try to imitate Oguruma. This is a special case. Next time, I will definitely not agree."
"Even if Maruzen, Chiyo-oh and I wanted to do this, we don't have the chance."
Mejiro Aldan smiled slightly. They would retire at the end of next year at the latest. Now they just wanted to run as hard as they could in the last year.
After chatting for a while, they continued with training.
On the other hand, Representative Rudolph is handling the affairs of the Student Union and preparing for this year's winter appreciation party.
The door of the Student Union was pushed open little by little, and a petite figure walked in.
"Hey, Emperor, why are you here with me instead of going to the training ground to train?"
"Hey, President, I just went to the Rigil team and wanted to train with them... but I was kicked out by trainer Tojo, who said I was making trouble. Really, I'm such a well-behaved kid, how could I make trouble?"
The Emperor of the East Sea skillfully moved a stool and sat next to the symbol of Rudolph, and said, "President, please help me talk to Trainer Tojo and let me join in."
"I will become a great horse girl like the president. Now there are many trainers trying to recruit me... If I join someone else's team, she will miss out on an excellent horse girl!"
Sighing softly, Rudolf looked at the Emperor of the East Sea with some doting, "I have already told her, but the details still depend on the trainer's own wishes."
If it was another horse girl talking to him like this, Rudolph would definitely criticize her seriously with a stern face... But facing the Emperor of the East China Sea, Rudolph could not blame him at all.
"Well... I'll go find her tomorrow. I believe Trainer Tojo will be moved by my sincerity!"
He glanced at the Emperor of the East China Sea and let her play by herself. Rudolf Symbol continued with his work while thinking in his heart.
"It seems that the plan should be implemented sooner. If it is delayed like this, it will be detrimental to the training and growth of the emperor's successor. But... who should we choose?"
Chapter 25 Leaving
After the news that Oguri would participate in both the Mile Championship Cup and the Japan Cup was officially released, it immediately attracted the attention of many horse racing fans.
Many fans left messages under the account registered by Oguruma, hoping that she would seriously reconsider and focus on the Japan Cup.
But these are obviously useless efforts.
Although every horse girl will set up a small account during her competition, it is rarely visited.
The accounts of Oguruma and others are basically handed over to Chihiro Higashino to manage, but Chihiro Higashino is too lazy to manage them. She just sits there all day long. She only sends a message when there is a competition, and doesn't say anything when there is no competition.
Of course, there are also Uma Musume who will chat with their fans all the time. The best among them is Haru Ulala... She chats with her fans online for at least two hours every day.
Then, Kuronuma announced on his team account and his trainer account that he would retire early due to health reasons.
He expressed his gratitude to the fans who have always supported his team and announced that Miura Bourbon will be transferred to the Surpass team.
After understanding the cause of the incident, fans sent their blessings, hoping that Kuronuma and Miura Bourbon can recover soon.
Although some people expressed dissatisfaction with Miura Bourbon's transfer to the Surpass team...
