Inside the Tracen Academy building.
Nakayama Festa froze when she saw her name. She never expected that the person featured in the diary this time would be her.
"Hey... what's going on..."
Festa was stunned for a moment, thinking back to what Trainer Xu Zong had written last night. A very bad possibility immediately came to her mind.
"Wait, could it be... the teacher he wrote about last night is my... teacher?!"
Her pupils dilated. She was no longer paying attention to her real-life horse information. Subconsciously, she immediately took out her phone, wanting to ask about her teacher's condition first.
But in the next moment, her hand froze again, because she realized that such a sudden inquiry would be meaningless.
He had only said that the teacher would have an accident, but didn't specify the details.
She decided to calm down first and see what happened. If it was just some accident, then there was definitely a possibility of salvaging the situation.
"That's right, it must be some accident. My teacher taught me how to live, so this time, I will become her hope."
"Yes... that's it. No matter what happens, whether it's the teacher in the Tracen world or in the real horse world, I will do my best to save her."
Festa was extremely glad she had seen the log. Her heart was now beating faster than ever before, and her breathing became rapid.
When her log entry appeared, Gold Ship, Toho Jiana, Sirius Symboli, and El Condor Pasa also came to her side to see what was going on.
"Hey, Nakayama Festa, did you see the log?"
Toho Jiana was aghast. She had been talking to her about her teacher just last night. She was terrified because he had already written about the teacher's fate in the diary; she might have met with misfortune due to her health.
The foolish Toho Jiana was on the verge of tears.
"I was scared too. It's okay, there's still a chance to fix it, I promise."
Gold Ship wasn't joking around this time. The trainer's log had sent ripples through the water, making everyone here extremely nervous.
"Ah, thanks."
Festa nodded and said gratefully, but her tone was clearly suppressing her own anxiety. Her teacher was the one who had truly given her hope, the one who had changed her life. She didn't want anything to happen to her.
Elsewhere in Tracen, Oguri Cap was also stunned for a moment after seeing the entry. She could relate to it deeply. She was a horse girl from the local leagues, and for her, there was also a teacher-like figure named Kitahara.
Kitahara had raised her from the local leagues, but he didn't have the qualifications to enter the central league. She had come to Tracen carrying the expectations of Kitahara and her hometown, wanting to win races here as well.
If Oguri knew that something had happened to Kitahara, she would also have difficulty controlling her emotions. Although she was in the central league, her feelings for her hometown were incredibly deep.
"Nakayama Festa, I hope her teacher is okay."
In another place, Special Week was already about to cry. "Eh, her teacher? How could this be?"
Spe-chan's mother had left her when she was young. She wanted to become number one in Japan and stand at the pinnacle of all URA horse girls, also to let her mother see it. That was her source of motivation.
But according to what the trainer wrote yesterday, when Nakayama Festa was running desperately, her teacher was... already gone?
Thinking of this, Spe-chan's eyes turned red. Becoming number one was her and her two mothers' dream, but if her mother was gone, she might not have any motivation to keep running.
"It's okay, it will definitely be okay."
At this moment, she silently continued to watch.
And just then, his log began to update, but his next message revealed a fact that broke everyone's heart.
That is, Ms. Nobuko's ending was filled with endless tragedy.
[In the Tracen world, when Nakayama Festa was young, she was actually very muddle-headed. Her dream at that time was just to seek excitement, like a desperate gambler, only hanging out with delinquents, constantly doing dangerous and meaningless things in exchange for a beating heart.]
[At that time, she didn't understand what it meant to be truly alive.]
[If it weren't for the appearance of her teacher, Nobuko, she might have continued to live in a muddle-headed way.]
[It was Teacher Nobuko who, with selfless love, led her back to the right path.]
[But what's tragic is that when she came to the URA wanting to repay her teacher, her teacher had passed away unexpectedly due to esophageal cancer.]
[She had no idea what to do.]
[Teacher Nobuko's father also couldn't accept this result.]
[She had originally planned to run for her teacher, wanting to let her know that she had already understood the goal and direction of her life.]
[But her teacher was already gone.]
[Looking at the letter her teacher left, she only thanked her. Thank you for giving her the courage to fight her illness by running in the last moments of her life.]
[However, she knew that it shouldn't be like this. The one who should be thanked was not her teacher, but her.]
[At that moment, she just told herself that she should do something more.]
[Her teacher's most beloved city was Paris, and her most beloved opera troupe was the Takarazuka Revue.]
[And all she could do was run.]
[She believed her teacher would definitely be watching her. She, Nakayama Festa, was such a person of few words. She was clumsy and foolish, unable to convey her meaning. And all she could do was to run with all her might, to use her desperate forward voice to tell her departed teacher... Teacher, do you see... I... really am, as you said, a horse who can win a G1. I really have... understood the meaning of being alive.]
[And she... Nakayama Festa, would also carry her teacher's dream and complete the race that bet everything, a race that completely transcended the bond of teacher and student.]
[The story begins in the early 21st century.]
At this point, almost everyone in Tracen was completely stunned.
Especially Nakayama Festa. Her expression became extremely bewildered, her pupils trembling violently. Her eyes saw nothing else, only the news of her teacher's passing.
She stood there as if struck by lightning. She had actually prepared herself for bad news when she saw her name, but that preparation was so fragile when she saw the cruel reality.
Yes, when she saw the news of her teacher leaving her with her own eyes, her mind went blank, her face filled with disbelief, and her teeth clenched tightly until her lower lip turned blue and purple.
At this moment, she stood there in extreme confusion, not understanding why it had turned out like this, why the worst outcome had really come.
She had already come to Tracen, had already made a promise with her teacher to have her watch her race.
She had already planned to step onto this racetrack, to seek hope in life on the track, but now, her teacher had had an accident.
"How could this be..."
Festa didn't know what to do for a moment, and then she reacted. Now was not the time to be sad. Now that she had discovered it, there was still a chance.
Yes, she instantly realized that she still had a chance to change things. Thinking of this, she immediately took out her phone, wanting to send a message to her teacher. She immediately found her contact information, dialed the number, but it didn't go through. She immediately sent a text message, telling her to go for a check-up immediately.
She even wanted to find a motorcycle right now, rush to her teacher's building, drag her out of the classroom without any regard, and throw her into the hospital for a check-up. From head to toe, a complete check-up.
She even fumbled in her pocket, constantly calculating how much a full-body check-up would cost. How much would it cost to buy health supplements for her teacher?
She didn't seem to have enough money, so she had to borrow some from someone.
At this time, her mind was in chaos, but she forced herself to calm down. Her teacher had helped her, and now was not the time to panic. She had to go and help her teacher.
And it wasn't just her. Beside her, Toho Jiana was already crying. In her heart just now, she had been praying very piously. Although she was a foolish gyaru and often skipped class, she was actually very kind. She was extremely sad that such a thing had happened.
"Festa, has Teacher Nobuko replied? It's a good thing we saw the log in advance. We can let her go for a check-up first. Early detection can eliminate hidden dangers."
"As for the money, I still have some here. I'll get some more from McQueen and the trainer later."
Gold Ship had the same idea.
Festa also nodded. At this time, there was no time for gratitude. She was also planning to set off immediately. However, just as she was about to go find Nobuko, she replied to her message, saying that she was already at the hospital today and was about to have a check-up.
She also said that she would listen to her and have a full-body check-up.
Actually, the situation was that she was already in the hospital, and her health was already very poor. She thought that Festa might have known something. She knew this child's personality best.
So, as her teacher, she didn't plan to hide it. When the results came out, she would tell her.
However, Festa didn't know this. She was relieved to see her teacher go to the hospital.
She asked her to tell her the results later and that she would be over soon. In fact, she was still planning to go find her now.
But Gold Ship told her to wait a moment and finish reading the log first. What if something else happened to her later? They could see it in advance and prevent it.
Only then did Festa think of this possibility. She had also made a mistake in her haste. She also agreed with this view, and at this time, she was also reading extremely seriously, not daring to miss a single word.
Gold Ship also said that now we must be optimistic; everything still has a chance.
In another place, Buena Vista was also very sad to see this news, not believing such a painful result. She was about to cry.
But she also believed that Teacher Nobuko would definitely be fine.
Her appearance was similar to Special Week's; she could be said to be her proudest daughter.
In reality, she was a filly. On her left ear, she wore a red bow, full of vitality, the type of a next-door little sister.
And she and Nakayama Festa were from the same period. In reality, she was extremely strong, with 6 G1 championships and 7 G1 runner-ups. But because she often lost races for no reason, she was called the "frustrated idol."
One of the unluckiest times was in the 2010 Japan Cup, where she was penalized and demoted by the JRA judges due to the jockey's mistake and the backward rules.
At that time, her foreign jockey even cursed, "Let the world see how bad the judges in Japan are."
Otherwise, in 2010, she would have become the General of Japan just like Special Week.
And she won the Japan Cup in 2011, which indirectly led to her losing the chance to win consecutive championships in Japan.
If she could have won 7 G1s, countless people felt that she would have undoubtedly become a Hall of Fame filly.
At Tracen, she would also often find Special Week to play with, but she was very naughty and often teased her.
And it was also a coincidence.
As the daughter of Special Week, she had also fought against Grass Wonder's good son, Victoire Pisa. The result was that Victoire Pisa defeated her, and the two were first and second respectively.
Achieving the special achievement that only the families of Grass Wonder and Special Week had—"Today's Buena Vista is not my opponent."
But she didn't know all this yet. Her attention now was all on Nakayama Festa and Teacher Nobuko. As her contemporary, she also wanted to go and comfort her, pat her head, and so on.
Her eyes were already red, and she wanted to see what kind of story would happen next. If there was a chance to turn things around, that would be great.
And in France, Workforce was also watching this scene. She was also extremely moved. She said silently:
"Teacher Nobuko, it seems you are the best teacher. It was you who let Nakayama Festa continue to run. I wonder what other regrets you had at that time?"
"And Nakayama Festa, your desperate running, what level of realm can you reach..."
Actually, she didn't know yet that her final opponent in the Arc was her.
And Xu Zong's log, at this moment, continued to be written in front of everyone's eyes.
The story of Ms. Nobuko and Nakayama Festa was known to everyone.
[In the early 21st century, a small foal was born at the Arai Bokujo in Mukawa, Hokkaido. It was Nakayama Festa.]
[The newborn did not show any outstanding talent and was born in an unknown ranch, so various horse owners were not interested in it. No one was willing to choose such a small horse with an ordinary bloodline.]
[This continued for a while, until under the recommendation of trainer Ninomiya Keiu, horse owner Izumi Shinichi bought it at a low price.]
[He thought at the time—"If I don't pay too much, I won't feel regretful even if it can't become a racehorse."]
[However, he did not know at this time that this action of his would cause a shock throughout the entire Japanese horse racing industry.]
[The story of Nakayama Festa and Ms. Nobuko also began here.]
[After buying it, he did not register it under his own name, but gave it to his daughter who had just become a horse owner at the beginning of the year—Izumi Nobuko, and it joined the stable under the name "Nakayama Festa."]
[At that time, when Izumi Nobuko first saw it, after she learned the news, she was very happy. She thanked her father with great excitement and immediately came to the ranch to see this little horse that belonged to her.]
[She didn't care about its price at all, didn't care about its results. And for this little horse that was still developing, she loved it from the bottom of her heart.]
[Izumi Shinichi saw his daughter being so intimate with it. This eighty-year-old father also showed a smile and even teased that he was going to be jealous. Such a time was indeed incredibly beautiful.]
[Afterward, she would often visit it and personally feed it carrots, tell it all kinds of stories, and take photos with it, caressing it.]
[She told it about her favorite Takarazuka Revue, her favorite Paris, everything she liked. And every time she explained, she would bring fresh carrots and feed them to it.]
[The staff of the team all said that Ms. Nobuko treated it like her own child.]
[Yes, this was Ms. Nobuko. What she liked was not the Nakayama Festa who could win first place, not the one who could win races. What she liked was just Nakayama Festa.]
[Even though she liked the Takarazuka Revue very much, she would not ask it to achieve the results of a major prize and run in a race like the Takarazuka Kinen. Perhaps for her, as long as it ran hard, it would be fine.]
[To run hard on this racetrack, and then to live happily.]
At this moment, seeing this, Toho Jiana was incredibly moved. She cried again. She held back her tears and said:
"Wuwu, even in the real horse world, Ms. Nobuko is so good to her. Even though she was not favored at the beginning, she was willing to give all her love."
"And the low price here should be the price when she joined their team, right? But Ms. Nobuko doesn't care at all."
After seeing this, Nakayama Festa's expression also changed. She said:
"Ah, it's probably like that, but the price is not important."
"What's important is that Ms. Nobuko is okay."
She also responded like this, and she also found that in the real horse world, she had also met Ms. Nobuko, and she was also very meticulous to her.
But when she thought of Ms. Nobuko's final result, her heart ached again. She said that she would definitely work hard. She could get rewards through the diary, and she didn't need these rewards. It would be fine to give them all to Ms. Nobuko.
What she was thinking now was to ask her real horse.
Please, win a few more races, and win a few more championships for Ms. Nobuko. If she is happy, maybe she won't get sick.
With this thought, she also watched nervously.
And her contemporaries, such as Special Week's daughter Buena Vista, and Grass Wonder's son Victoire Pisa, were also here, watching very nervously.
At this time, his log continued to update.
[However, Ms. Nobuko probably never imagined that her love and dedication to it would be rewarded beyond her imagination.]
[In November 2008, under the riding of jockey Hiroyuki Tahara, it completed its debut very smoothly. And in the subsequent GIII major prize, the Tokyo Sports Hai Nisai Stakes, it competed as the 9th favorite, but in the final straight, it won by overtaking with the powerful late kick of the Gold bloodline, and thus became one of the new stars of the classic races.]
[Afterward, its camp set its sights on the GIII Keisei Hai, but in this race, due to the injury of a horse named Sunrise Max, it ultimately lost by a neck and won second place.]
[But this result already immersed its camp in joy.]
[Although it won several races very thrillingly, the result of dominating the major prizes after its debut had already proven its extraordinary strength.]
[It was thought that it was underestimated later on, but in fact, it was an excellent horse that could leave a good record on the classic Triple Crown route.]
"Very good, that's it. But wait... Gold bloodline? What does this mean?"
Festa was still very happy to see herself win, but the Gold bloodline later on made her stunned for a moment. It couldn't be that she was also a member of the Gold family, right? Didn't they say that the Gold family all had strange tempers? She shouldn't have one.
However, she had clearly misunderstood. Her temper later on was also very big. As the foal of Stay Gold, she was also extremely crazy in some aspects.
But she didn't have time to think now, just continued to watch.
At this time, his log continued.
[However, the camp's imagination was beautiful, but the cruel reality poured a basin of cold water on them.]
[After the Keisei Hai, its physical condition plummeted. The camp, which was busy adjusting its condition, had to sharpen its spears at the last minute and hastily respond to the subsequent classic races.]
[When the Satsuki Sho arrived on April 19, its physical condition was still not good. It only competed as the 6th favorite. Although it once got close to the front of the pack in the race, it ultimately failed to exert its sprinting ability and sank into the pack, suffering a major defeat in 8th place.]
[At the end of the next month, it prepared for the Japanese Derby. This time, it ran the fastest of the last three waves in the entire field, but unfortunately, there was still a lot of distance from the first place, and it finally finished in fourth place.]
[However, during the Japanese Derby, its condition had warmed up. Everyone could see that it was a horse that ran hard and would do its best to complete the race.]
[And its efforts also brought good results. Before the Kikuka Sho, it first participated in the G2 St. Lite Kinen in the second half of September and won.]
[This victory was also the best result of their efforts.]
[And this was also related to Ms. Nobuko's love. It would do its best to run. This was everyone's impression of it. A large part of the reason for this was from Ms. Nobuko's encouragement.]
[But what was unexpected was that Ms. Nobuko did not appear after that.]
[It often waited, but from day to night, it got nothing.]
[Perhaps it was thinking... Ms. Nobuko, did she not want it anymore?]
[However, things were not so.]
[Ms. Nobuko, at this time, had already been diagnosed with severe esophageal cancer and was admitted to the hospital, unable to take care of herself.]
[After not seeing Ms. Nobuko, its temperament changed greatly. It was no longer the hardworking Nakayama Festa, but became irritable and began to hate training.]
[At that time, the team believed that if Ms. Nobuko were still there, such a thing would not have happened.]
[And even after the Kikuka Sho arrived, the desperate sprinting Nakayama Festa from the Derby was gone. The one who had easily won the St. Lite Kinen was gone.]
[It suffered an almost humiliating defeat in the Kikuka Sho with a 12th place finish.]
[The fans were also very confused. What on earth was wrong with it? Why had it become like this?]
[Had its potential reached its limit?]
[But in fact, his team knew that it was because it could not see Ms. Nobuko's figure.]
[However, even greater bad news came. Ms. Nobuko passed away due to esophageal cancer a few weeks after the Kikuka Sho.]
[Izumi Shinichi could not bear the pain of losing his daughter. At the age of 80, this old father encountered the most painful thing in the world.]
And seeing this, in Tracen Academy, "I didn't expect that Teacher Nobuko in the real horse world was the same."
Festa was speechless for a moment. She swore in her heart that she would definitely prevent this tragedy. Whether it was the Teacher Nobuko in the Tracen world or the one in the real horse world, she had to save them both.
Toho Jiana also hugged Gold Ship tightly, her tears streaming down. Although she had never met Teacher Nobuko, her love for Nakayama Festa was so pure.
And in fact, if Teacher Nobuko saw her determination now, she would also cry. She would never regret her choice to help this student named Nakayama Festa.
At this time, the log continued.
[Izumi Shinichi recalled everything that his daughter had liked back then. She liked France, she liked the Takarazuka Revue, so he wanted to do something more for his beloved daughter at the end of his life.]
[He transferred Nakayama Festa to his own name, but in his heart, this was his daughter's racehorse.]
[He wanted to win the Takarazuka Kinen with it and go to his daughter's favorite Paris together to compete in the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe.]
[And at this time, Nakayama Festa, who had heard this on the side, finally understood everything.]
[And it was from this moment that everyone discovered that the hardworking Nakayama Festa, who had been accompanied by Ms. Nobuko, had returned.]
[It wanted to use its all-out running to comfort Ms. Nobuko's spirit in heaven, to use everything it moved forward with to speak its words. It believed that when it ran with all its might, Ms. Nobuko, who had always praised it since it was a child, would definitely be able to see.]
[It must have also wanted to do something more for Ms. Nobuko.]
[And its team, at this time, did not know its state, but they could only bet everything on it.]
[They tossed a coin. If it was still in the same state as during the Kikuka Sho, unable to win a single race, then participating in the Takarazuka Kinen would be out of the question, let alone the subsequent Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe.]
[Whether it was impossible to win or there was a glimmer of hope, they only had one chance.]
[They had already tossed the coin. All they could do was pray.]
[However, as a gambler, Nakayama Festa would absolutely not lose such a bet.]
[Carrying Nobuko's dream, it rushed out in a搶答 posture in the race. In the OP-level race, the Metropolitan Stakes, it announced its successful comeback in its senior year with a 2-length advantage.]
[And the team set the next race as the G1 race—the Takarazuka Kinen.]
[And this race, for others, might just be a grand prix to decide the strongest of the first half of the year, but for it, it was not just that. To comfort Nobuko's spirit in heaven, it set off on its journey with the determination to win.]
[However, for it, the lineup of this race was nothing short of desperate.]
[The opponents it had to face included the 4GI winning horse, Buena Vista, who was already considered one of the strongest of the era, as well as the big favorite, Victoire Pisa, and last year's Japanese Derby horse, Logi Universe.]
[But it had a reason why it had to win. Although it competed as the 8th favorite, it was already prepared to fight to the death.]
[Soon, the Takarazuka Kinen began.]
[Victoire Pisa, Logi Universe, and Galactose were in the lead from the beginning, in a fierce battle, while it conserved its stamina in the back of the pack, waiting for a chance to attack.]
[After entering the 4th corner, Logi Universe, who had been in the contention circle, fell back due to loss of speed. The successor was Buena Vista, who had maintained her position at the front of the pack with a front-running strategy throughout the race, and gradually surpassed her opponents with her leg strength.]
[With only 200 meters left to the finish line, Galactose also lost speed due to exhaustion, and at this time, Buena Vista had firmly occupied the first position.]
[But at this moment, a scene that surprised everyone appeared.]
[Nakayama Festa, who had burst out from the outside, showed its terrifying late-kick speed. It rallied in the late stages. Every step it took with all its might made it constantly move forward, closing the distance with Buena Vista.]
[All it could do was run, and its desperate posture when running with all its might could definitely be seen by Ms. Nobuko.]
[It and Buena Vista fought in the last 50 meters, and in the end, it laughed last. It surpassed Buena Vista and staged a shocking upset with a half-length advantage, winning the most meaningful victory for it.]
[After this race, the performers of Ms. Nobuko's favorite Takarazuka Revue came on stage and personally presented the trophy to it.]
[Izumi Shinichi couldn't help but cry when he saw this scene.]
[This was also the only G1 race he had won in his 60 years as a horse owner.]
[And after that, its camp announced something that shocked everyone: to compete in the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe in France.]
[And on October 3, 2010.]
[Longchamp, France.]
[The Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe arrived as scheduled.]
[Its team was fully prepared for this. Their team was the same as El Condor Pasa's back then, and he had also almost reached the top of the world with a second place.]
[Its efforts, the active preparation and training of Nobuko's team, this time, they not only wanted to realize their dream, but also wanted to dedicate the championship of this Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe to Ms. Nobuko, who loved France the most.]
[The race began just like that.]
[From the beginning, it showed its powerful strength. No one could stop its steps. It maintained its position in the middle of the pack on the outside. Although it was blocked by several horses in the final corner, it found a gap in the pack after entering the straight and broke through smoothly.]
[He and the Epsom Derby horse of that year, Workforce, fought endlessly and were once temporarily in the lead.]
[The live broadcast at that time also attracted everyone's attention.]
[The announcer even shouted excitedly at the end!]
[Nakayama Festa! Workforce!]
[Who will win this championship in the end!]
[Nakayama Festa is in second place!]
[Workforce is in the lead!]
[Is there still a chance for Nakayama Festa? She is in second place!]
[Is she finally in second place?]
[She worked very hard to get second place in this Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe!]
[Perhaps many people would lament that it was a great pity that it did not win the championship, but at that time, in everyone's opinion, it was almost impossible for it to get any results when it came to the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe.]
[Although many Japanese fans hoped it would win, they definitely did not hold much hope. Its popularity was also ninth, which showed.]
[So, when it got second place that year, it was extremely shocking news for the entire Japanese JRA.]
[And it also shortened the distance between Japanese racehorses and the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe to a neck. This was the second horse from Japan to get second place in the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe since El Condor Pasa. It could be said that it caused a huge sensation at that time.]
[So much so that in the Japan Cup after it returned to Japan, it only got 14th place, and later, due to recuperation, it missed the entire spring season, but it still won the honor of the most outstanding senior male horse of the year with its dominant performance in the Takarazuka Kinen and its excellent performance in the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe.]
[And even if it had won this Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe, it would have undoubtedly been selected into the Hall of Fame of Japanese racing with this victory.]
[And even the Japanese JRA would have lifted it to the ranks of Hall of Fame horses, and it would definitely be in the supreme position.]
[And although it failed, it had already done everything it could. I believe that when Ms. Izumi Nobuko saw this scene, she would also be proud of it for the rest of her life.]
[In September 2011, it went on another expedition to France, but it was far from its former prowess. It finally ended its racing career in France, the land that its original owner, Nobuko, loved so much.]
[It can only be said that the story of Nakayama Festa and Teacher Nobuko is also incredibly moving to me.]
[The Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe is also a lifelong pain for countless JRA.]
[In 2009, actually, Buena Vista was also going to participate in the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe, but when it got there, it had no chance at all, because the champion of the 2009 Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe was named—Sea the Stars.]
[And I just also got information about Sea the City, Sea the Stars, and the World Horse King.]
[I'll write about them later.]
[Their stories are moving, and I also have to remind Teacher Nobuko of Nakayama Festa to pay attention to her health.]
[Since I know about such a thing, I can't just sit by and do nothing.]
[I wonder what kind of reward I can get today.]
At this moment, Xu Zong had also finished writing his log. He had many feelings in his heart.
And in the next moment, he also uploaded the log accordingly.
Soon, a message suddenly appeared.
[Tip: Log upload successful.]
[Tip: Congratulations to the host for obtaining the reward, a Kawasaki Ninja H2 motorcycle.]
[Tip: The Kawasaki Ninja H2 motorcycle is worth 420,000 RMB. The host is not allowed to sell it but can drive it himself. The driver's license has been fully equipped.]
Xu Zong was stunned for a moment. He was now also a car owner. And his motorcycle would not make a loud noise and would not affect the people nearby.
He could also race in the future when he went out.
And at this moment, a black motorcycle appeared at the gate of Spica. However, when it appeared, no one noticed. Only Maruzensky, who had just finished class, suddenly saw it and cried out in surprise.
At the gate of Spica, Maruzensky looked at this motorcycle back and forth and said with great surprise:
"Oh my god, whose motorcycle is this? It's so cool. I really want to drive it."
Sakura Chiyono O said with a straight face, "Let's use the process of elimination. It's not mine."
Yaeno Muteki was stunned. Was there such a process of elimination?
Mayano Top Gun said, "By the way, could it be Trainer Xu Zong's? After all, it's parked near Spica."
Maruzensky immediately said, "Um, do you guys have that kind of traffic police uniform? Let me wear it."
"Why do you need a traffic police uniform?"
Mayano was stunned, then suddenly realized, "I know, is this the Cosplay between adults?"
Maruzensky was also stunned. Where did she learn this? She shook her head and said with a grin:
"I'm going to pretend to be a traffic police officer. Then if it's Trainer Xu Zong's, I'll stop him and tell him he can go, but the car stays."
"Uh... isn't that a crime?"
Yaeno Muteki was dumbfounded. Getting something for nothing was not what she had expected.
However, at this very moment, "Everyone, make way."
Xu Zong slowly walked out. And he also found that this Kawasaki Ninja H2 was indeed very cool. He took a step forward, opened the motorcycle with the key, and the whole vehicle started at once, making a buzzing sound. He also put on a helmet. Now he was also a car owner, extremely瀟灑.
"Wow, Trainer-san, can you give me a ride? It feels so cool."
Sakura Chiyono O also said with great excitement, her eyes sparkling.
"Trainer Xu Zong, where did you get this?"
Gold Ship, at this moment, had come here with Nakayama Festa. After seeing this motorcycle, she was also directly stunned. His motorcycle was much cooler than her balance car. She suddenly felt that her balance car was not so cool anymore.
"Sakura Chiyono O, you also want a ride, but I have a question. Can your short legs reach the pedals below?"
Xu Zong asked a soul-searching question.
"I can reach them!!!"
She was so angry. What kind of question was that? But she thought about it carefully, and it seemed to be a bit difficult.
And Xu Zong also said where he wanted to go. He found an excuse, saying that he was going to buy something near the hospital, because he had seen some news about Nakayama Festa and also knew that the Teacher Nobuko of this world was already in the hospital.
Nakayama Festa said that she was on the way and asked if he could give her a ride.
Xu Zong threw her a helmet.
"There's no time to explain, get on the car."
"Coming."
He sat in the front, and she sat behind him. Then he stepped on the starter, and directly took her and flew out.
And his motorcycle driving skills were also at a masterful level. But on the Tracen campus, he still moved forward steadily to ensure everyone's safety. Once he was out of Tracen, he went straight north.
"Trainer Xu Zong, are your driving skills good? Hahaha."
She felt it was extremely exciting. She held onto his back waist tightly and enjoyed this feeling. And she also knew that he was going to find Ms. Nobuko. She was very grateful to him in her heart.
Yes, she had already made up her mind. This time, she must turn everything around and dedicate the real Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe champion to Teacher Nobuko.
"Being fast on the turns is what really matters. Who can't accelerate on a straight line? Watch closely, I'll show you my driving skills. Don't blink, I'll only perform once."
After he finished speaking, he directly twisted the throttle and pulled it all the way. When he was driving this motorcycle, the system had given him a three-day protection period to familiarize himself with this motorcycle, so now as long as he didn't violate the traffic rules, he could show off his driving skills randomly. But after three days, he wouldn't be able to.
Afterward, he made a sharp turn, and she also cried out in surprise. And under this extreme sharp turn that was infinitely close to the ground, this feeling of the body tilting while constantly moving forward, she had never felt before. At this moment, her heart was also beating fast, and she was dumbfounded.
She had also made sharp turns before, but compared to his extreme sharp turn, it was far from it.
She thought, if this was 100% safe, she would definitely let her teacher experience it.
But no matter what, her motivation was now at its peak.
Soon, they arrived at the hospital.
She also asked where Teacher Nobuko was, so she planned to go up first. He found an excuse and went to find her with her.
Gold Ship and Toho Jiana had actually also come. They couldn't take his motorcycle, so they had to take her balance car together. Actually, they could have run over together, but considering that Toho Jiana's foot had been injured recently, they took the balance car.
"It's so slow, Gold Ship."
Toho Jiana complained.
"It'll be fast once you get off."
Gold Ship answered quickly.
These two had no choice but to move forward slowly.
And at this time, it was a coincidence that she found that she had not claimed her training reward after completing her debut race. She also claimed the training reward.
And her reward was that she got a handful of painkillers, and at the same time, her teacher's pain was reduced by 50%. The real horse world was the same. The real horse got some carrots, but her teacher's pain was also reduced by 50%, which gave her the motivation to continue running.
Soon, the two of them arrived at Teacher Nobuko's hospital room together.
But... the moment she arrived at the hospital room, she was stunned.
"...Teacher?"
She was stunned for a moment. She saw her teacher wearing a hospital gown, with tubes inserted all over her body. Her body also looked much thinner than before.
But she was holding a gentle smile and said, "Thank you for coming to see me, Festa, and you too, Trainer-san. Actually, I also promised Festa that I would tell her today's examination results."
And she said, "Wait a minute, teacher, your appearance, the tubes are more than usual—"
"Listen to me, Festa."
Izumi Nobuko did not intend to hide it, but kept her promise and told her about her physical condition:
"My current physical condition, I may only have less than a year to live."
And after she heard this, she was also shocked and said:
"Eh... what on earth is wrong?"
Izumi Nobuko said:
"I've felt it since last year. I don't have long to live. It's just that this diagnosis has confirmed my time limit. That's all."
Xu Zong, upon hearing this, also said in surprise, "You actually didn't... make it in time..."
Izumi Nobuko smiled and said, "Ah, it's not that sad. Instead of making a useless struggle, it's better to cherish this year's time so as not to leave any regrets."
"And I don't intend to hide it. Festa, my current body is in a state where it wouldn't be strange if I left today or tomorrow."
She said in surprise, "Don't... don't say such things. There must still be a chance..."
"Festa, I know my body best."
Izumi Nobuko said, "Although it was a short life, being able to guide you as a teacher is my pride."
"So I asked you to come also to say this. Don't come to the hospital anymore in the future. You have to move forward without hesitation. You will definitely find the meaning of your own life."
"I... I don't want you to see me become unlike your teacher."
However, at this moment, she denied it and said:
"No, you won't, teacher. Please just watch me like this. Please don't give up hope. Your favorite is the Takarazuka Revue, right? Your favorite place is Paris, right?"
"You also once told me that your favorite flower is the violet, because it is a flower that represents strength."
"Please watch me. In the Takarazuka Kinen, in the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe, I will definitely win the championship. I will let the violet bloom in Longchamp."
"And have you been feeling a little more comfortable today?"
Now, with the diary, she had to make a bet. She had to complete all the training rewards and give her teacher a chance to live. As a gambler, she had put all her chips on the line this time. She absolutely could not lose.
"My body? Speaking of which, it does seem to be much more comfortable... Festa, I didn't expect that at this time, it would be you who comforted me."
Nobuko was stunned for a moment.
"Sometimes, children grow up without you noticing and already understand a lot of things. Why not listen to their opinions, don't give up, and give it another try."
Xu Zong also said this.
"Trainer Xu Zong, you... you're right. If even I can't do it, how can I educate my students?"
"No matter how painful it is, I will try to continue with the surgery."
She also said this. She was also gratified. This girl, she had also grown up.
She reached out and patted her head.
And afterward, he and she also chatted with her for a few words and then left the hospital. After all, she still needed to rest.
And after going out, she said:
"Xu Zong, my dear, if I participate in the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe now, is there a possibility of winning?"
"Before, my teacher said that Paris and opera are both very romantic."
"So what do you think? If I compete now, is there a possibility of winning?"
He shook his head and said, "Definitely not now."
However, she did not give up. She knew that she could get second place in the end. She had to work hard and definitely let the violet bloom in Longchamp.
And soon, he and she went back. On their way back, they met Gold Ship and Toho Jiana who had just arrived.
These two were really slow.
But they also went to visit her afterward and told her to rest assured. They would supervise her well in the future. Gold Ship said that she was one of the most reliable people at Tracen.
Toho Jiana was dumbfounded. She had never seen such a shameless person, no, horse.
Back at Tracen Academy, Nakayama Festa said she had something to do and was going to hold a press conference. She wanted to tell the world that she would definitely compete in the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe.
Xu Zong didn't stop her. That was her personality.
He then returned to Spica.
But at this time, in various places all over the world, countless horse girls were also unable to calm down for a long time after knowing this.
In France, Workforce was also shocked after seeing the log. She didn't expect to win the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe championship. No, to be precise, it was her real horse that won.
She had mixed feelings for a moment. Did she destroy the dream between Nakayama Festa and Teacher Nobuko? Her whole person also fell into a very confused mood.
"What's wrong with you, Workforce? You're daydreaming again?"
Broye came over and asked.
She shook her head and said it was nothing.
"It's because of her, right? You're such a super idiot. Do you think she will blame you? Do you think everyone will blame you?"
"On the contrary, that girl, now she must be working harder than anyone else, wanting to defeat you. And you, you're here wallowing in self-pity."
"You remember, this is the achievement and glory that your real horse got. What right do you have to take her results and think you will definitely win?"
"If you don't work harder, you will definitely be surpassed by her."
"You have to go all out and fight her to the death. This is respect for her, and also respect for your supporters. Don't you have something to carry on your shoulders?"
Workforce smiled like that.
"I..."
She was stunned for a moment. She felt that yes, she was wasting her time here. What on earth was she doing? She also carried the dreams of countless people. What she had to do was to learn from her the spirit of fighting with all her might.
Everyone has a reason why they absolutely cannot lose.
Everything she carried, everything she worked hard for with her trainer, she absolutely could not let down.
"Bring it on, Nakayama Festa. I'm looking forward to our match."
The confused look in her eyes disappeared, replaced by a kind of unvented power. She also started to sprint. She had to win.
"What an idiot. Just like that sloppy Victoire Pisa."
Broye also smiled.
"Hey, I heard that."
Victoire Pisa was a little red-faced. She was indeed very exquisite, but she actually had a little secret. She was a little sloppy in private. This had been said by Broye many times. She was also thinking, if he wrote about her, would he write about this?
If others knew about her sloppiness, she would rather die. No, before she died, she had to drag him down with her.
But at this time, she, Broye, and Workforce were also thinking about a problem.
That is, the world horse king that he wrote about at the end of his diary, who on earth was he?
Could it be that he was now the strongest horse girl in the entire world, and even in the entire history?
Victoire Pisa was actually very confident in herself. She believed that if someone wanted to compete with her, she would definitely show the strongest fighting spirit and show her strength. And she was also very confident in defeating others.
But if it was the strongest horse girl in the world, she didn't have the courage to say that it would be her.
Of course, Broye was the same. She also believed that she was the strongest in the world, but if he didn't say it, she would ultimately not know who that person was.
"The horse girl at the top of the world, what level of realm will her strength reach? It's really hard to imagine..."
At this time, her expression was also extremely serious. Even just thinking about that title gave her an invisible pressure. Who could get that title of the strongest?
She was extremely looking forward to it.
And naturally, it wasn't just her. In the entire world, almost all the horse girls swallowed their saliva, wanting to know that person's name.
In America, Flightline's expression also became extremely interesting. The strongest in the world? This title, she absolutely could not pretend not to have seen it, because it was really too attractive.
She looked forward to seeing her name there. Even if Nakayama Festa lost to Workforce, she did not think that Workforce, or Victoire Pisa, if she fought with them, she would lose.
They were indeed very strong, but she was also an existence beyond common sense.
"Haha, why don't we have a world competition? Let's decide who is the real world horse king. I, Flightline, will not be outdone."
Her expression also became extremely excited. She felt that this idea was great. She had even fantasized about the scene of her fighting with the top horse girls in the world.
She was really extremely excited, her heart beating wildly.
And at this moment, in England, Satono Crown was also thinking, who is this number one horse king? Is it possible for her?
Also seeing this scene was Frankel.
"The number one horse position?"
Her gaze was also a little excited. She had not thought of herself at all, but she had finally found the opponent she most wanted to find. She liked running the most.
If she could compete with the world's number one horse girl, that would be particularly interesting.
She was already extremely excited. The moment she knew about the world horse king, she would definitely go find her. Being able to compete with her every day would definitely be the best thing.
However, Xu Zong had not written about this matter yet. Everyone, at this time, was just training and waiting.
And soon, it was afternoon.
In Spica, at this time, Xu Zong, according to the plan, was holding Spica's welcome event. She introduced Hokko Tarumae to everyone present.
And now, including Special Week, everyone also welcomed her arrival very much.
"Hokko Tarumae-san, I also want the specialty ramen from Tomakomai."
Spe-chan was also eating very happily. With a new person in place, everyone could have a party, extremely happy.
Now she was also bringing a computer. She recorded every scene of everyone, and after asking, uploaded it to the internet together. Many people also wanted to know the daily training of horse girls, and the click rate was very high for a while.
However, at this moment, a guy that no one had expected appeared.
It was our lovely Tokai Teio, Teio.
Actually, in the plot of the first season of the horse girl anime, before and after Special Week had run the Yayoi Sho, she had joined Spica herself. And the current Teio was the same.
She really liked the cheerful atmosphere of Spica and directly chose to join. She wanted to compete with McQueen in Spica.
"Everyone, Teio-SAMA is here, and I have a great piece of good news to tell everyone."
She jumped and opened the door of Spica.
"Oh? Great good news?"
When he saw her, he also didn't know what she was doing, but he also cooperated with her performance and showed a very surprised expression: "What good news?"
"Nee-hee-hee, don't just cheer when you find out."
She lowered her voice and made it very mysterious.
Spe-chan, Vodka, Daiwa Scarlet, Hokko Tarumae, McQueen, Gold Ship, and others were all a little nervous. What on earth was the news?
"What on earth is the news, Teio?"
Spe-chan also said cutely.
"Hehe, Xu Zong, my dear, I have already told President Rudolf that I want to join Spica. What do you think? Are you very happy? With the invincible Teio-sama joining, Spica will definitely take off completely."
"Isn't this a great piece of good news?"
"But I still have to go through the process and have a trial training."
Teio put her hands on her hips, a look of eagerly waiting for praise.
"Really? Teio?"
Special Week was very happy. This can't be taken back, right?
"Really, I've already submitted it. I absolutely won't go back on my word. I'm just waiting for him to agree."
She smiled.
"This is indeed a very good thing."
He was also surprised. But she saw her eagerly waiting for praise expression, and immediately became pretend-calm, deliberately teasing her.
"Hey, Xu Zong, my dear, why aren't you excited at all?"
She felt that something was wrong. The plot didn't develop like this. Shouldn't he be hugging her legs and thanking her for joining in tears?
Because Teio-SAMA had countless people who wanted to sign her.
And when he saw her expression, he also wanted to laugh very much. This troll Teio was still too cute.
He didn't pretend anymore. He laid his cards on the table. The damn Tokai Teio was joining. He wasn't acting anymore. Our Spica was taking off directly.
"Teio, welcome to the team."
He also congratulated her. In this period of time, various generals have been added.
"Nee-hee-hee, that's more like it."
She put her hands on her hips and said, please cheer for me, applaud for me.
"Wow, then our Spica, now we have everything for dirt, turf, and classic races, and queen races."
Spe-chan was also very happy.
Immediately, everyone also started to train until evening.
And coincidentally, tomorrow was everyone's fan festival rehearsal, and the day after tomorrow was the fan appreciation meeting. After training today, tomorrow they would go together to experience the various processes of the fan appreciation meeting first.
Unfortunately, the weather was relatively cold now, otherwise they would be able to see Nice Nature's cheerleader uniform.
And tomorrow many little horse girls would also come, including Kitasan Black, Satono Diamond, Contrail, Equinox, Panthalassa, and Liberty Island. It was going to be lively again.
He also smiled. He took everyone to train, and then returned to his room. And he was about to write a log again.
And what he planned to write today was the world's top racehorse.
PS: Sorry everyone, 1W6 is here, the update is late. I will try to update earlier tomorrow, after all, there is a prayer at night.
Then post a Honkai: Star Rail PY, it's written by a good friend, lifespan flow, written well, everyone who watches Honkai: Star Rail can go and have a look.
Synopsis: When his life is about to end, perhaps the Grand Diviner will remember the days before she got the third eye, and her master who was trapped by fate.
She thought she was a master of divination, until her old friend left.
Being able to [see] the changes of all things, the changes of time and the world, is no match for time, no match for death.
Flying light, flying light, I urge you a glass of wine.
It has been several hundred years since their first meeting, but it feels like yesterday.
He was once a proud and arrogant genius. Now, he can no longer lift his sword.
He also often forgets everything that happens around him, because his past is too brilliant, and time seems to have stopped at that moment.
The world is dark, they can hear what he can hear, but he can no longer hear what they say.
Only the voice in the bottom of his heart is getting louder and louder.
When the brilliant story ends, people can't help but ask:
"What will happen to them in the future?"
The girl replied:
"I think they will live happily ever after."
"Then after the rest of their lives... what then?"
The girl didn't answer again, just closed her eyes.
Chapter 105: A Troubled Rudolf, and the "Truth" Mejiro Palmer Touched Upon
"She's crossed the line! The Hopeful Stakes! First place! Tokai Teio!"
"Not long after her big win in her debut race, she has already won her first G1 championship before the classic year! Now, with a strength that is almost the strongest of her generation, she is aiming to become the second undefeated Triple Crown horse girl after Symboli Rudolf! And she has taken her most solid step!"
"Let's congratulate her on her victory! Then next, second place is Ibuki My Kagra, third place is Nakayama Festa, fourth place..."
She won. After winning by a clear margin of two lengths, Tokai Teio knew that she had now become one of the very few horse girls who had been promoted to a G1 winner before even entering the classic year.
This was not her original plan. For the achievement of "undefeated Triple Crown," she had originally planned to be as stable as possible before stepping onto the classic Triple Crown races. According to her plan, she only needed to win three OP races to secure her qualification for the Satsuki Sho. Challenging a G1 race in her rookie period was actually still risky.
But she still did it. Not only because she suddenly figured it out and wanted to win the undefeated Triple Crown in a way that surpassed Rudolf, but also because... she felt this was a good opportunity for her to find that person.
She was not overjoyed by winning her first G1 victory. Her gaze, from beginning to end, was scanning every face in the stands. She was searching, searching for the person who was "waiting for her" in her chaotic memory fragments, the one who could be her only trainer.
She felt that that person must be watching her somewhere. If not in the stands, then in the sky... And this answer, perhaps only at the moment she achieved the undefeated Triple Crown, could be confirmed.
If, after completing the undefeated Triple Crown in her dream, she still hadn't found that person... then there was no doubt that this might mean she was destined to never be reunited with her dream trainer in reality. She could only, like the her in her dream, continue to run with the last wishes he had left behind.
But before that, she would never give up the search for her destined trainer. She carefully scanned every face, but did not find a single one that, besides joy, fanaticism, and excitement, had that... gratified expression that one should have when watching their own daughter grow up...
No—there is still one person! A person who had long since been eliminated by her and placed on the "absolutely impossible" list was now also in the stands, silently applauding.
In an instant, after circling around and finally returning to the finish line, her gaze and his in the front row of the stands crossed in mid-air. At that moment, her pupils couldn't help but blur for a moment...
Only he... in this huge racecourse, only his expression was so similar to the expression that the person she was looking for would show her. That look of pride mixed with a hint of relief made her heart suddenly accelerate and ache at this moment.
It's really similar... Trainer Kitano, you must be a person very similar to the trainer I'm looking for. If I didn't have these memories, these expectations that I can't betray, I might really be attracted to you.
But... what a pity. You are not the person I'm looking for. Your gaze is not on me alone.
After a moment of melancholy, faced with the roaring racecourse, she, in her racing silks, raised a hand high, held up a finger, and under the boiling cheers of the whole crowd and the continuous flashing lights, left what she considered to be her most dazzling figure!
"This is—the first crown!"
"I will become a horse girl with an unprecedented undefeated four crowns, surpassing the president! I will let everyone see my heroic figure!"
So, hurry up and notice me, my destined—Trainer-san!
A moment later, in the student council office, with the video that had been replayed who knows how many times on the tablet finally ending, the expressionless Rudolf finally put down the tablet. And at the same time, Mejiro Palmer, who was sipping black tea in front of her, finally spoke calmly:
"You've already watched this video several times. At first, I thought you were happy that that child had won. After all, as she said, if she really became the second undefeated Triple Crown winner, then her current record has already surpassed your performance in the classic year."
"But now it seems you're not happy at all... you've even started to see this child you personally trained as a part of the threat."
"...You wouldn't understand, Palmer. You don't understand my current conflict and worries."
And in the past few months, Rudolf could be said to have been living in pain and anxiety every day. Since she had recovered her past memories and learned about Teio's future from C.B., she had not slept well for a long time.
Since Teio's memory seemed to have gone wrong, she had shown a diligence and determination that even Rudolf was worried about. She had tried every means to hone her skills, to achieve the most beautiful victory, to attract attention in the most reputation-enhancing way, just so that she could find that "destined person" as soon as possible.
And witnessing all of this, Rudolf could be said to be at her wit's end—she had to worry about the hidden danger in Teio's leg, lest she have another fracture like in her previous life and never recover; and she was even more worried that if Teio continued to win like this, her childhood friend, whose life was hanging by a thread, might leave her again.
No matter which of these happened, she could not accept it... especially since she was even more worried that in the future, such a scene would happen... the "daughter" she and Kitano had raised together would personally end the life of the "father" she had been searching for...
She didn't dare to think, didn't dare to think about what would happen if such a scene occurred, how she and Tokai Teio should face it, and what face she should have to face this former daughter of hers... but she had no way to stop all of this.
"I don't think you need to worry too much. Trainer Kitano's condition has been quite good recently."
Mejiro Palmer, who had no past memories, was calmer than her. She calmly poured herself a cup of hot tea and said:
"Although Teio won against Nakayama Festa this time, that girl Gold Ship is not bad. After her debut race, she won another GIII-level race, which should have bought him some time."
"But it's far from enough," Rudolf also stood up from her seat anxiously, her head aching. "In the future, Teio and them will have several years of clashes. If they can only win some GIII-level major prize races under her rule, time will not be enough."
"Just the recovery from one race takes at least one to two months. He will absolutely not allow them to compete while tired."
"If this continues, even if they run until graduation, how much time can they bring him? A dozen months? Or a few years? Is that enough for him to raise the next generation of horse girls who can win races for him?"
"...Actually, I've been wanting to ask for a long time, Rudolf. Are you a little too familiar with him?"
However, at this moment, Palmer, who had also been worrying about the training of her family's McQueen and Dober, her charming phoenix eyes looked at Rudolf with interest. She always felt that during the time she was away, had something happened that she didn't know about?
"What—Palmer, you—"
And as expected, after Palmer's words fell, Rudolf, who was still anxious, reacted as if her tail had been stepped on. But before she could speak, Palmer answered calmly:
"If you want to say why you would know, then don't say it, Rudolf. Your performance is too obvious."
"The last time we met to discuss, you didn't call him by his first name like this. A person like you, if your relationship hadn't become closer, you wouldn't take the initiative to close the distance, right?"
"By the way, I also heard that you and C.B. had a fight a while ago? It seems this is the first time you've had such a big conflict. And you have a bad temper, but C.B. is a patient person. And what could make you both so agitated at the same time... I think it could only be him, right?"
Saying this, Palmer, who was still aware of everything in the academy even at the Mejiro home, put down her teacup and looked at Rudolf with a particularly solemn gaze, asking, word by word:
"What on earth happened, Rudolf? If it's convenient, can you tell me everything you know?"
"..."
However, the moment Palmer's words fell, Rudolf fell into a silence. She was also thinking, scrutinizing Palmer, whether she was worthy of her revealing everything she knew.
After all, no matter what, the first person to know about his secret and propose to help him was Palmer. Rudolf did not doubt her determination to save his life, but it was precisely because of this that she was a little hesitant.
After all, the precedent of C.B. was still fresh in her mind. She now knew that the person who had had an unforgettable experience with him was definitely not just her.
And if C.B. could awaken her past memories, then there must be others who could do the same—she even suspected that eighty percent of the horse girls now surrounding him had a similar past with him. Otherwise, her childhood friend, who had not even been able to find a charge before, would not have attracted so many horse girls at once.
What she was very worried about now was... the first one to discover his secret, Mejiro Palmer... could she also be one of them?
...No, probably not, right? Rudolf's eyes wrinkled slightly. Looking at the somewhat confused Palmer, she couldn't help but shake her head with a bitter smile, subconsciously abandoning this idea.
As a fellow childhood friend, she knew Palmer's proud personality too well. This was a noble young lady who was even prouder than her. And in her and Kitano's lifetime, the only one whose childhood was influenced by him was her. She didn't remember him having any contact with Palmer.
After all, the education Palmer received from the Mejiro family was in a completely different direction from the Symboli family. Rudolf could still follow her parents out of the family and meet him by chance, but Palmer could hardly even leave the Mejiro home, being wholeheartedly cultivated into a hexagonal warrior before she stepped out.
No matter how magical it was, he shouldn't have had any contact with her, right? Even if they had had contact, with her understanding of her proud personality, a trainer like him who did not meet her "perfectionist" ideals would probably not be to her liking, right?
"C.B. said... now, everything should be centered on his life. Everything else has to be put on the back burner."
"Palmer and the Mejiro family's help should also be able to provide some assistance now. Otherwise... I'll have to find a way to get them to help us too."
Having figured everything out, Rudolf now also sorted out her mood. The moment she turned her gaze to Palmer again, a smile appeared on her face. After a moment of silence, she said softly to her:
"Palmer, I... can I trust you?"
"I am probably the most trustworthy person, Rudolf." And Palmer also answered her in a very relaxed and calm tone. This young lady, whose every word and action was elegant and represented the reputation of the Mejiro family, also answered calmly:
"I won't tell anyone about today's matter. You can rest assured."
"...Then, Palmer, do you... believe that a person's memory can cross time and space, just to meet their destined person again?"
"Huh?" Palmer was slightly stunned for a moment, blinking her eyes in confusion for the first time. And in the next moment, she saw the face of Rudolf, who was now lost in memories and was also planning to reveal all these past events to her, show a... happy smile that made even her feel a little dazed.
That smile, mixed with many complex emotions, but after filtering out all the dissatisfaction, leaving only the beautiful part, the most precious memory, at this moment, with Rudolf's gentle voice, slowly flowed into her ear.
That was... a world she had not yet touched. What both of them did not know was that after today, all of Palmer's previous confusion, troubles, and sorrows would be answered on this day...
