I only have one year to live, so I must become a legendary horse girl!

"I like the sense of security and tenderness around Song Ge. Actually, I envied Miss Di Wang a lot. She was able to enjoy Song Ge's embrace in front of so many people, and have a romantic escape together. But, I was just envious. If it were me at that time, Song Ge wouldn't have hesitated at all, right?"

"You are such a gentle and passionate clumsy horse girl. So I, who know you well, also know clearly that I can't be the only one by your side. You can't have only one person's name by your side. That would be too difficult and too selfish, so..."

"So if it's a lovely child like Equinox, I don't think I'll lose. At least the time I spent with Carol, the help I gave, and all the other things... The First Ruby wouldn't accept that kind of failure, and can't face it."

"So, why should I worry about being jealous? My dear, I will be the most important person by your side. I have such confidence. As for other things... I won't be so selfish as to ask you for anything else."

"Because besides me, there are always many people you can't let go of. Moreover, you will also appear in front of me when I need you, right?"

"Perhaps, I can only complain in my heart occasionally. I fell in love with such a charming horse girl that the whole world might like her, right?"

"But this is such a happy complaint, isn't it? Because the horse girl loved by the whole world has my image reflected in her pupils. Isn't that right, Carol?"

First Ruby didn't say anything else, but Gotham Carol was speechless for a moment. This was also completely beyond her common sense. She was still a little dizzy after a long time, but before her spirit fully recovered, her body's subconscious had already sent the words she wanted to say to her lips.

"Lu, Ruby..."

"Yeah, I'm here, Carol."

Wait...wait, so...ah, that's not right, Gotham Carol!

Carol of Gotham...!

Faced with such a first ruby, if you refuse it, it would be a complete and heartbreaking escape, right?

Ultimately, when Paris confessed her feelings, wasn't Gotham's response a rejection so much as a need for reflection? So, after all this time, what should be said?

"Ruby, listen to me, can you arrange a dance after I get back?"

"I think I won't step on your feet this time. I promise, when I get back from New York."

Chapter 153: Ocean Biscuits

In short, after deeply realizing what the world of Uma Musume is, Gotham Carol no longer has the panic mentality that it occasionally had before.

How to describe her current mood?

Probably...

Now that we're here and deeply involved, what else is there to think about?!

Anyway, so far, the only one who can be considered responsible is Chunqiufen, and the rest of the people around him...no one seems to be acting particularly dangerous. Oh, maybe Zhuo Fu is real?!

In a moment of trance, Gotham Carol suddenly thought of a pony who was still in France, and silently put her and Satomi Hikari on the same level of danger.

What, where is the Spring and Autumn Equinox? Of course, that's the lowest danger level, the kind that's put on par with my own sister Aldan.

No matter what, Gotham Carol would never believe that the silly Chunqiufen would do something dangerous!

Hmm... As for where Ruby is at?

Gotham Carol actually feels that the relationship between him and Ruby is quite ambiguous now, but, seriously...

After the phone call just now, Gotham Carol clearly realized one thing, she needed to face up to her relationship with Ruby, just like she needed to face up to her relationship with Equinox.

This is also something that cannot be avoided... Gotham Ode, you have to face it, but after all, not rejecting the confession at that time is itself a state of mind, right?

First Ruby was the first horse girl to clearly confess her feelings to her.

Gotham Carol took some time to get up from the bed, then took out a strapless dress with silver edges that she hadn't worn for a long time from the closet.

However, the phrase "I haven't worn it for a long time" actually needs to be put in big quotation marks.

The reason is very simple. What is the reason why you want to wear this skirt?

Gotham Carol returned to the place where the dress was once stored, a single-family villa in New York, USA, the only one in the world that truly bears the name of Gotham Carol.

This white dress with silver edges is one of Gotham Carol's favorite dresses from that year.

However, the one I'm wearing now is just the same style, but in a completely new size purchased from the same custom-made shop.

After all... compared to the honest Dusk Song, the new Gotham Carol has to be marked with some marks, in various senses.

Facing the mirror in front of her, Gotham Carol gently spun, causing the silver lines on the edge of her dress to sparkle brilliantly. Satisfied with this familiar outfit, she put on her black and white headband decoration, then pushed the door open and walked out.

Of course, the house in New York is actually much smaller than Mejiro Castle, but even though Gotham Carol had been away from here for a long time, she was still quite familiar with it. She walked down the stairs and saw a very familiar scene.

Mejiro Aldan was sitting in the place where she used to see him every time she got up, reading a newspaper, but this time the scene was completely different.

The one who hurriedly put down the plate and pretended to be nonchalant was his younger sister, Mebiru McQueen. Well, although her movements were quite quick, the small piece of cake missing from the plate still betrayed the truth.

On the other side, the person staring straight at him was Xin Yuzhou, who for some reason had to put on a maid outfit and then cleaned the entire villa at an extremely terrifying speed.

Apart from these, there were not many people here. Although Secretariat also returned to New York with them, the first thing she saw when she got off the plane was Grace Rongyao who came to greet her inquiring about the place. Then, Old Man No. 2, who wanted to move in, rarely showed a sad expression on his face.

Grace Honor, who was a subordinate, grabbed Secretariat before his boss could speak, and then roughly stuffed him into the car, stepped on the accelerator and drove out as if he was packing something to take away.

Wild America, Abyss Horizon, racing, start!

That's probably what it feels like.

Such behavior made Gotham Carol curl her lips. She didn't know what expression to show for a moment. She could only say that it was very... consistent with her understanding of Japan?

Wait a minute, Secretariat, aren't you an American horse girl? How did you get taken down by someone like that?!

In short, Gotham Carol, who was extremely shocked, gave up thinking, chose to observe a moment of silence, and then returned home accompanied by her family.

Oh, it is worth mentioning that Manchester Tea House, who had originally come with them, had to go back to a place farther away first. To be precise, Ning Jing wanted to take her somewhere on Sunday. Under the hope of her friends, Manchester Tea House finally chose to agree. So they temporarily said goodbye to the villa in Gotham Carol and might not be back for a week.

However, Gotham Carol fell into a state of doing nothing for a while.

After all, she came back to the United States for the Voice of the People Awards Ceremony to be held later, and also to put a temporary end to her entire running career.

She deserves this award - and by the way, she can also give Ura a big slap in the face, so why not? It feels so good.

But such an award ceremony, even the rehearsal content, will take place a week later!

This means that Gotham Carol has a rare opportunity to have a whole week of free time?!

Hey!

How about being a game addict for the first time in a long time and enjoying some video games that are actually unheard of and brought about by completely different technology in this world?

This is indeed a good idea. Although online shopping is not very developed in New York, the area where Gotham Carol is located is the richest area, and everything around it is very developed. In other words, if she wants, she can just go to the nearby shopping malls to buy something and come back.

The journey can even be as fast as less than half an hour round trip!

Well... As for inviting Sister Aldan and the others to join in, it’s better not to consider such things for the time being. After all, Gotham Carol always feels that something weird will happen that will make her become a fan.

For example, as a dress-up doll, as a dress-up doll or something like that.

So for the sake of his own mental safety, Gotham Anthem was ready to open the door and run away, and then come back to explain why he was there.

Anyway, I just open the door, turn around and say I need to go out for a while, and then I'll just run away—? There's absolutely no problem with this plan, right?

It would be strange if there were absolutely no problems!

Gotham Carol's plan was killed at the first step, not because Aldan Mejiro and the others did anything to kill her idea.

Although the three horse girls at the back were actually watching Gotham Carol moving towards the door, which only she thought was very hidden, the real surprise actually came from the door in front.

When she heard the bell ringing, Gotham Carol was actually quite confused. After all, she had just returned to New York yesterday, and only today had she rested enough to officially start her activities. So who on earth would come to her at this time?

Or is it that Tea House Sister and Old Thing No. 1 are done?

Oh, Sunday tranquility, you are pretty fast.

However, since someone pressed the bell, Gotham Carol would naturally not turn the other person away. At this time, she had already moved to the area closest to the door. At this time, she thought she was quite perfect and appropriate, so she simply walked forward and pressed the communication bell of the door.

"This is Brother...Twilight Residence. Could you please tell me your identity, unknown guest?"

"Oh, this is Twilight Mansion. My name is Seabiscuit. Is Miss Gotham Carol home?"

Obviously, there was a rather complicated tone in the person who answered in this way.

It sounds like she is more curious and confused, but in fact, Gotham Carol has a sense of being pampered. However, she can't find the reason and can only put this strange intuition behind her.

She pressed the button to open the door.

"Of course I'm home. Anyway, please come in and chat, Ms. Seabiscuit."

Gotham Carol pushed open the door and looked from the door of the villa towards the main gate. She saw a horse girl approaching from a distance.

She was a horse girl with fiery red hair, so tall that she even looked much taller than the Secretariat.

Simple, smart, slim-fitting long jeans, followed by a casual but perfectly fitting leather jacket and a brown cowboy hat that seemed to be designed to match this outfit.

In short, what we see in Gotham Carol is a horse girl who is dressed in a very retro style but is full of affinity.

"It seems to be Miss Gotham Carol who lives in Twilight Mansion. Will you invite me in and have a seat?"

"Ah, yes, yes. Please come in, Ms. Seabiscuit. However, I'm curious about the reason for your sudden visit...it shouldn't be business, right?"

Gotham Carol was still wondering why Seabiscuit had suddenly shown up. When the two entered the room, Aldan Mejiro and McQueen Mejiro had put aside their casual demeanor. Meanwhile, Shin Cosmos, dressed as a servant, had already prepared hot tea and snacks.

What a terrifying ability to act, Xiao Zhou! Could it be that you had anticipated this?!

"Of course it's not business. Or rather, not entirely business? First of all, I'm personally curious about the horse girl who has created several miracles in the arena, so I wanted to visit her privately. Is there any problem with this?"

"Of course, of course, that's no problem. Actually, Ms. Seabiscuit is a horse girl I admire very much, so I'd be happy to have her visit."

This is a lie, or rather, it is not a complete lie.

Gotham Carol didn't actually like Seabiscuit that much, but no matter what she had heard about the deeds of the man in front of her after coming to this world, or the things like helping the Secretariat to push for the relegation of Japanese international competitions, it was reasonable for the colt to express her respect for the veteran legend in front of her.

Ocean Biscuit, this name actually doesn’t seem that surprising at first glance, it might even be a bit scary, right?

However, this is also a very good horse girl, and her name can even be said to be known to the entire horse girl world.

How would you describe it in the most intuitive way?

At that time, Oguruma had retired and officially entered a semi-retired state. At that time, she was the most popular horse girl in Japan, but she actually had another name in the United States.

“Japanese ocean crackers.”

This is the most intuitive thing. Gotham Carol was able to achieve such terrifying results before the Japan Cup and Arima Kinen, but was still firmly defeated by Oguri Cap in terms of popularity. To make an analogy, it is the fame and popularity level of Ocean Biscuits in the United States.

In other words, it is almost impossible to challenge the popularity of Oguruma in Japan or the popularity of Ocean Biscuit in the United States.

As long as the two of them go out to the competition, the crowd will be packed, and they will definitely win the most popularity!

Ocean Biscuit didn't ask any more questions about what Gotham Carol had just said. She just looked at the horse girl in front of her.

"It's a little different from what I imagined. When I was watching the game broadcast, I thought Gotham Carol would be a more cold-blooded horse girl, but now..."

"Now?"

Gotham Carol tilted her head, and then clearly saw Seabiscuit's hearty smile.

“It’s kind of cute.”

"What's the adjective for cute...!"

Gotham Carol puffed up her cheeks, and then she heard the soft laughter of her own sister Aldan.

The two horse girls from the Mejiro family did not interrupt the conversation between Gotham Carol and Seabiscuit. They just did their own things, but there was no doubt that their attention was actually on Gotham Carol.

By the way, because of her distraction, Mejiro McQueen didn't notice that she had already eaten the fourth piece of cake...

New Universe is the culprit. She keeps passing it. This is the fifth piece, and it’s still there!

"It's just my feeling, Ode... can I call it that? You know, we American horse girls like to say what we think, simply and directly. However, let's end this topic. Although I came here with personal matters, I do have some business to discuss as well."

Seabiscuit made a little gesture and pointed at his clothes.

"Of course, although it's official business, it's not actually official. I just came to discuss it with you briefly. Don't be too nervous, it's okay."

Gotham Carol nodded, then she pretended to pick up a teacup and sipped it gently, imitating the elegant manner of her sisters, waiting for what Ocean Biscuits would say next.

"This matter has actually been exposed by various media outlets in the United States recently, but I haven't been able to find any further information. I guess it's because I'm too famous, so I haven't had the opportunity to get in touch with anyone."

"Anyway, Miss Carol, if it were you, you might receive some contact, some..."

"Have you ever heard of something like Uma Musume using performance-enhancing drugs...?"

As Seabiscuit said this, his originally bright red eyes were hidden in the shadow of his cowboy hat, and seemed to be glowing blood red.

"Those damn lunatics and bastards are doing such dangerous and crazy things."

Chapter 154: You really do owe me a dance, right?

Ma Niang uses stimulants.

To be precise, it is not that a certain horse racing girl, or some horse racing girls, will use stimulants to improve their performance during the competition, or rather, stimulants are just one of the drugs used. What is a more accurate description?
