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

Why was Gotham Carol so panicked at this moment? It was as if she had experienced something like this before.

Of course, lying was impossible, so there was only one direction. Miss Gotham Carol had been that little girl that everyone else saw as a horse girl, right?

Considering the possibilities and connections, was Miss Gotham Carol at the time perhaps considered the reincarnation of Miss Twilight Ryuka? And then, the horsegirls of Mejiro Castle weren't exactly weaklings, which meant...

Miss Gotham Carol is indeed Miss Twilight Ryuka, right? Absolutely not...? Because only in this way could she have returned to Mejiro Castle with such a similarity, and then been accepted so easily, without even the slightest resistance or adjustment.

In fact, it seems that Mejirojo is more demanding that Gotham Carol must return to them?

This is really an extraordinary thing.

To be honest, at this moment Donna felt that she had seen through the whole truth, but it was precisely because of this that she felt even more admiration.

The name of Bo Mu Liu Ge needs no further description. Even Donna herself is going to the race after hearing the legend of that person. Therefore, in her mind, the miracle runner Bo Mu Liu Ge and the returning Augustus Gotham Carol are two powerful men who are quite difficult to tell who is better, and it is almost impossible to decide the winner.

Donna was even quite happy about the Dream Cup that would be held later. It was a simple truth. Being able to witness the battle between strong people, no matter what happened, she would feel that it was worth the money!

But now, a deeper truth has been discovered in front of the Cup of Dreams. If Gotham Carol is the Song of Dusk, then there is no need to distinguish between the two?

No, actually there are some, but in Donna's eyes, Gotham Carol is obviously stronger when it uses all its strength. Or, it seems that the real strength of Dusk Flow Song is only the mentality of running for life?

But these are all unimportant things, things that no one would care about, right? At the end of the day, mentality is just mentality. In terms of running ability, Gotham Carol would definitely beat Dusk Flowing Song, right?

Donna felt this so deeply that she was now so determined that no matter who appeared in front of her and spoke against her, she would not be shaken.

Moreover, there really aren't many people who still think that Dusk Flowing Song will definitely defeat Gotham Carol after knowing the truth, right?

No way?

Chapter 165: Technology and the ruthless past

"Thank you for coming here in person, Miss Song. Didn't we originally plan to go and greet them? And who are these two...?"

"I actually prefer to come myself. Okay, okay, that's totally unimportant. As for these two, one is my logistics horse girl, Donna, and the other is... my junior? His name is Route."

Gotham Anthem looked at Donna, who was expressionless and completely serious behind him, and Hangqu, who also had a frosty face, was two meters tall and silent, which gave people a huge sense of oppression. For a moment, he fell into helplessness.

Why did things turn out like this?

Early this morning, Gotham Carol and Seabiscuit went to the New York International Airport to pick up Donna who flew in from Tokyo. Then, according to the original plan, Aldan Mejiro and Manchester Tea House would go to the nutritional supplement company with Donna, and then help and protect Gotham Carol to complete everything she could do.

However, the fact that Hangxian and Donna arrived together clearly indicated that something unexpected had occurred.

When she was about to go out, Gotham Carol saw Hang Qu leaning against the door with a face full of confusion and hesitation. She was so absorbed in her own world that she didn't come to her senses until Gotham Carol pushed open the iron door.

Then, what happened?

"Please let me go with you, please, I'm willing to do anything."

Well...something like this happened at that time, and it made people a little unsure how to react.

No, I’ve seen this episode. It seems like a while ago a few horse girls did something like this. Don’t you think so, Fan Gaoer?

At that time, Gotham Carol even wondered if there would be another American horse girl who would do the same thing, but they didn't expect it.

She just had a casual thought, but the world did not let her mind wander for a moment.

There were times in the past when a boomerang thrown from that time flew from that time to the future at that time, and then turned back at this moment and suddenly hit the bull's eye.

Oh, this boomerang is such a boomerang.

However, rather than being speechless about such a scene, Gotham Carol is more curious.

After all, just a few days ago, Hangxian was quite arrogant, with an attitude towards Gotham Carol that said, "I will never acknowledge you!" But why did he become a completely different person in just a few days?

How strange! It really makes one curious about the reason, right?

Gotham Carol naturally asked the question on the spot, but the answer she received left her at a loss for words for a moment.

What did the route say?

She said...

"Although it's true that Miss Carol...you're quite unacceptable, I'm more concerned about those so-called nutrients. Please, give me a chance to personally witness and destroy those who deceive the pure feelings of horsegirls. I'll do anything."

Now, Gotham Carol was certain that Route would do anything. At least her mood at the moment was completely real, without any falsehood.

Indeed, if it was a horse girl like Xingke who pursued speed so purely, she would probably hate those so-called nutritional supplement companies and the like. But to deceive the horse girl's pure feelings... what exactly is going on?

After tentatively agreeing to Hangtu's request, the three of them got on the special car, said goodbye to the others who had changed their minds and decided not to go after seeing Hangtu's determination, and headed to the destination with Donna, who had actually passed the driving test.

It was at this time that Route began to explain the information she knew in this regard. In fact, it was also what Secretariat wanted to tell Gotham Carol at this time.

In fact, in the beginning, American horsewomen simply disdained to use nutritional supplements, and this situation continued until not long after Secretariat retired. It was at that time that these normal nutritional pharmaceutical companies that had been serving ordinary people got a rare turnaround.

That is, there is a horse girl with a very abstract daily life style, but she is also relatively well-known. She has used their products before. Although not many times, it can be clearly found in the purchase records.

Then, under such circumstances, they invited the horse girl to become the company's first spokesperson.

After that, it was a fairly predictable story. Having tasted success and opened up the market, what needed to be done?

They'd throw every available budget into it! They'd throw it in hard! After making money, they'd try to improve the efficacy of their products and dominate the huge Uma Musume market. They'd added even more technology and rigor to what were once merely nutritional supplements, even exceeding product limits and dosages.

Then, along with the increasingly powerful propaganda machine and the visible improvement in efficacy, nutritional supplements are now a standard item for American horse girls. It can be said that it is these technologies and hard work that have completely washed away the talents and efforts that originally relied on oneself.

Nowadays, powerful horse girls like Route, who are born with natural powers, rely entirely on themselves, and pursue pure speed, are the real outliers among the new generation in the United States.

By the way, because of this, the two-meter-tall giant horse girl route has such easy conditions for being harassed by other horse girls and has no friends.

In short, the route has been unhappy with this situation for quite a long time in various senses. What do you mean by if you don’t eat it, then I will eat it, and I will be ahead of you before the start?

This kind of atmosphere is weird no matter how you think about it, right?

Route is quite disgusted with this kind of situation, so she must completely crush this weird atmosphere with her own hands - that's why after Secretariat told her what to do after Gotham Carol, she rushed to the door without stopping.

Of course, getting stuck in the dilemma when you get to the door is another matter entirely.

In short, after Hang Qi calmed down and explained the situation without showing any shyness at all, Gotham Carol finally understood the whole situation and fell into deep speechlessness.

How should I put it? This kind of thing wasn't something that existed only in the world of Uma Musume, was it? Even with her common sense, it was completely understandable. So, compared to the technology and hard work of American Uma Musume, she was actually more curious about something else.

I've heard before that the route seems to have some connection with the Secretariat, but now it seems that it's not just a connection, right? At least she's the one who's being taken care of by the Secretariat, right?

"Okay, but regarding the route, what is your relationship with Ms. Secretariat...?"

"I, I, uh... Tsk, okay, I'll say it."

Hangxian fell into deep hesitation and struggle, but after closing her eyes and obviously brainstorming, she finally let out a long sigh and made up her mind.

"She, she is actually my...adoptive mother? Or guardian?"

"Oh, it's the guardian. I thought it was my biological mother... Wait, guardian?"

Gotham Carol's eyes widened. She hadn't expected this outcome. To be able to be a foster mother to a soon-to-be-debuted Miss Route, how old could Old Lady Number Two be... No, no?!

In the original world, Gotham Carol clearly remembered that Shima's East Sea Emperor and Rudolph Symbol were father and son, so in this world, even if the two people have no blood relationship, they have a certain degree of connection and become close seniors and juniors.

From this perspective, even though Gotham Carol didn't recognize the route and Secretariat was only known by name, but...

But could it be that in the field of Shima, the route and the secretariat are really in a relationship like father and son, mother and daughter...?

The more Gotham Carol thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong, and the way she looked at the flight path gradually became strange. However, in the end, she quickly put away her uncontrollable and out-of-control thoughts and returned to the current situation.

That is, what you should do exactly when you go to that company.

Hangxian expressed her unconditional support. Anyway, what she had to do was very simple, which was to bear witness and then find a way to give this damn company a hard time, so she didn't care too much about the specific process.

In fact, according to what she said at the beginning of the route, she came after the Secretariat talked to her. But after she came, she realized now that she had not figured out what to do at all.

So let’s just say it this way, just this once, Miss Gotham Carol, listen carefully, just this once, I will support whatever you do, just this once!

As for Donna, she had already said that she had no other thoughts. However, after getting on the car, she often looked through the rearview mirror at the horse girl who was describing her feelings while sitting in the front driver's seat.

Donna, you seem to be very interested in the route...?

Gotham Carol had this feeling, but before she could think about it, she had already arrived at the corporate park where people were already waiting, and was greeted by staff who were obviously very excited about Gotham Carol's arrival.

Then, there was the conversation that happened before.

"Hiroshi and Donna... they really look like impressive pony girls. I heard that Carol-san passed the trainer exam. Does that mean these two are the other pony girls in the team besides the leader...?"

The staff was obviously quite curious about this, and they used this topic to narrow the distance between them, so they started talking to me as they walked towards the meeting room.

Faced with such a strange topic, Gotham Carol did not react at first, but Donna behind her nodded in affirmation at the first time.

"Yes, I'm the horse girl in the trainer team, and this flight line lady..."

"How could I possibly…"

"Ahem, I just joined two days ago."

Gotham Carol guessed that it was probably Donna who reminded him by bumping into him from a position that neither she nor the staff could see. Of course, Hangxian was reluctant to say such words, and his rebuttal just now was subconscious.

If Donna hadn't been there, this idiot would have really messed things up.

"But you seem to know me very well?"

Naturally, Gotham Carol quickly changed the subject, which seemed to be causing problems, and the staff member who heard this question showed a rather smug expression.

"Of course, I'm your fan, Ms. Carol. Um, when you're done with this, could you please sign an autograph for me?"

The corner of Gotham Carol's mouth twitched. So many times, having too many fans is not always a good thing. It would be bad if your name appeared in some strange places.

"If there's a chance later? I'll consider it. Okay, let's talk business first."

"Okay, then, please follow me to the conference room over here."

Seeing that they were almost at their destination, the staff member did not continue the previous topic, but took the initiative to open the door and brought Gotham Carol into an empty conference room.

In fact, the staff lady who accompanied us all the way was of a high rank. At least judging from her behavior, she seemed to be able to make complete decisions on all matters related to the cooperation with Gotham Carol.

In other words, as Seabiscuit said before - this company will do everything it can to get Gotham Carol to endorse it, and will go to such an extent.

So, how does Gotham Carol collect evidence in this regard?

In fact, it is very simple. Before coming here, Gotham Carol hid a recorder on her body. She would record all the conversations in this regard, and then maintain a very ambiguous relationship when the conversation ended to get the relevant actual dosage information for inspection.

In fact, there is no need to check the technology and ruthlessness of this company's products to get the answer. After all, the other party sells them openly. As long as a large number of notarized samples are taken for testing, the other party can be directly killed.

The reason why Gotham Carol was invited to come seems to be that Secretariat and the others wanted to add another layer of insurance and let her participate to share the pie.

Gotham Carol was a little confused. After she agreed, she came here and argued with the staff for almost an entire afternoon before they reached a preliminary agreement.

Next week, Gotham Anthem will follow the staff to the production park to actually check out the production environment there, understand the specific product production content, and then decide whether to sign the contract.

Of course, it is destined not to be signed, but if it doesn't do so, how can Gotham Carol achieve its goal?

After completing these steps, Gotham Carol planned to leave with Route and Donna, hmm...

In the end, of course, she did not leave her signature for the staff member.

Chapter 166, Secretary Chu: Hehe

When we got home, it was actually already late, and the moment we got off the car, we felt uncomfortable and wanted to leave.

Although Gotham Carol was a little curious about her attitude, she didn't refuse or try to persuade her to stay - after all, she wanted to come and go on her own, so there was no need for her to stop her.

However, something unexpected happened. The person who pulled Hangxian out of the car and into the house was Donna, who had been silent in the driver's seat just now. Gotham Carol, who was quite confused and shocked about this, even took a few seconds to react before following the cursing Hangxian into the house.

"Donna...?"

"Nothing much, trainer. I just wanted to remind you not to forget anything else."

Forgot something else...? Wait, why did Donna call me a trainer?

Gotham Carol was a little confused for a moment. She looked for an answer at Aldan Mebiro who had been waiting for a long time and even took the initiative to put a cup of tea in front of her, but she found that her sister had no doubts at all.

It seemed as if she had anticipated that something like this would happen...?

Hey!

Have all of you been to some world line that I don’t know about? This joke is not funny at all, kids!

However, perhaps because Gotham Carol's puzzled expression was too obvious, Route, who was still in a state of rage but was easily suppressed by Donna, hummed and said the reason why this happened.

It's strange to say, why can even a two-meter-tall Qiluan be firmly suppressed by Donna? Is Donna really an ultramarathoner in every sense of the word?

"Trainer, what we said earlier in that company, that this... muscle monster and I are both horse girls on your team, have you forgotten, Miss Carol?"

"Ah, oh, this, isn't this what you tricked her with back then, Donna...?"

Could it be that Donna really wants to join my team? How strange!

Gotham Carol couldn't figure it out. She scratched her head and looked at Donna who was still silent and just suppressing the route. However, the brown-haired hydraulic clamp horse girl did not give any answer. Instead, the New Universe on the side took out a tablet and showed Gotham Carol a picture that she had never imagined.
