Why was I assigned to be a horse girl?

But after saying that, Hitotsu Amber turned around, leaving Kotobuki Toru the space, and went to sleep facing the pile of snacks. "Today was pretty happy."

"Me too."

----------

Then, the next morning, when Kotobuki Toru opened his eyes, he discovered a rather subtle situation:

When Fei Tu Hu Po fell asleep, she was clearly facing away from him, but after a night of tossing and turning, she had unknowingly moved more than half a meter closer to him. Now, through the blanket, her head was gently resting against him, curled up in a way that truly resembled a lazy little fox.

Kotobuki Toru took out his phone and glanced at the time. It was already nine o'clock. Hitoko was still asleep, breathing evenly and softly.

Looking at her peaceful sleeping face, Kotobuki Toru couldn't bear to disturb her, so he quietly sat up, picked up the book next to him, and quietly flipped through it.

About an hour later, a slight movement came from under the covers, followed by a soft moan from Fei Tu Hu Po, who then woke up.

The first thing Hitoko saw upon waking was Kotobuki Toru, and a sweet smile appeared on her face: "What time is it?"

"It's just past ten o'clock."

Upon hearing this, Fei Tu Hu Po trembled violently, instantly regaining her senses and quickly sitting up straight on the bed.

After a night of tossing and turning, her pajamas were in disarray, the loose silk collar slipping down her shoulders, revealing large expanses of her fair and delicate shoulders, exuding the unique youthful charm of a young girl.

Kotobuki kept sighing inwardly, thinking how well Hitoko had grown up; her chest was just the right size to fill out her clothes, otherwise he might have seen even more suggestive scenes.

Fei Tu Hu Po rubbed her face: "Why didn't you wake me up when you woke up just now?!"

Kotobuki Toru chuckled teasingly: "You said yesterday, oh no... early this morning, that you were a light sleeper and would wake up at the slightest noise. I thought you would wake up quickly."

"Um... I guess I was just tired from shopping yesterday. I'm usually a very light sleeper." Fei Tu Hu Po rubbed her head awkwardly. "What's next?"

"Keep studying! I'll finish my paper and then show it to my advisor."

So, for the next two days, Kotobuki Toru devoted himself entirely to writing the paper.

On the third day, Qin Chuitou called his tutor early in the morning to prepare to submit the first draft and give a gift.

Hearing the two on the phone, Fei Tu Hu Po also started clamoring to go along...

After all, it's the place where I worked hard delivering food, and Kotobuki Toru's mentor has helped everyone a lot before, so it would be good to say hello.

Kotobuki Toru's advisor was even more delighted to hear Hitoko's voice. Kotobuki Toru's thesis became secondary. He specifically said on the phone that Hitoko should come first, and Kotobuki Toru shouldn't come at all if Hitoko didn't bring Hitoko...

Left with no other choice, the two decided to go out together.

As soon as I opened the door, Narcissus called.

[Hey, Amber, we're arriving in Sapporo today. Your final outfit and everything are ready, so let's get the blessing done today!]

"Oh, I'm going to Hokkaido University."

【Hokkaido University is fine too, blessings don't have to be specific to any location... Master, let's go to Hokkaido University.】

Chapter 291 Senior~ Senior~

During the spring rain season, the rare morning light slanted into the apartment through the gauze curtains. Kotobuki Toru opened a piece of bread and stuffed it into his mouth. He also bought a bottle of milk and clapped his hands: "You can eat something too, and then we'll change our clothes and leave."

“Okay…” Fei Tu Hu Po crawled out of the quilt in her pajamas, rubbing her eyes, and took out a piece of fast food chicken breast for breakfast.

While eating, Hitoko looked at the clothes rack and was troubled again: "Speaking of which, what should I wear? After all, it's a place with a strong academic atmosphere like Hokkaido University."

Kotobuki Toru was amused by Hitoko Amber's words: "You've been to my lousy school before, haven't you? You went there wearing this deliveryman's uniform, and you went there in your regular clothes too?"

"But things are different now, aren't they?" Fei Tu Hu Po thought for a moment: "After all, I'm your contracted horse girl now, and I'll be your assistant at school. I have to give you some support, right?"

"What are you talking about?" Kotobuki waved his hands repeatedly. "I'm the most low-key one at school. I usually only dare to bury my meat under my rice when I eat. Look at my clothes, they're all high-quality replicas from China. They're cheap and good quality... and you get free shipping if you buy a lot."

Seeing that Kotobuki Toru clearly had no desire to dress up, Hitoko Amber said, "Well, okay then, I'll just wear whatever."

Wear whatever you like.

Although she said it was casual, in the end Fei Tu Hu Po still copied an outfit from an online fashion blogger: a white long-sleeved shirt with a cute bow tied at the chest, the bow looking like it was about to take flight from her bulging chest; a black pleated skirt that revealed her snow-white legs; visually, it was much better than those fashion bloggers.

"Let's go!"

The taxi sped along the streets of Sapporo, heading quickly towards Hokkaido University.

Due to the significant latitude difference between Hokkaido and Tokyo, the cherry blossoms in Tokyo have already faded, while those in Hokkaido are still budding.

After several days of rain, the weather finally cleared up briefly today. Taking advantage of this rare good weather, students from the college left their dormitories and the library to take photos in various parts of the campus.

Among the crowds, a large number of students wore square academic caps and gowns.

Typically, only recent graduates who are about to receive their degrees or have already received their degrees wear such attire.

"The second quarter is graduation season in Japan. Because the graduation time for thesis defense varies from department to department, students will graduate one after another during these three months."

Kotobuki Toru, seeing Hisako Amber looking on with envy at the graduates taking photos on the lawn, paused and stood aside to explain, "Of course... some graduates smoothly while others don't. If you're perfunctory with your advisor, or your thesis is of poor quality and doesn't meet the standards, your advisor will send it back, and you'll have to postpone your graduation until September."

"Huh?" Hibiki Amber was also quite surprised. "How many people are graduating late like this?"

"There are quite a few here at Hokkaido University, which values ​​academics. After all, it's not one of those diploma mills that just want a degree. They have to ensure the quality of the students they send out."

Kotobuki stroked his chin and pondered the data for a moment: "Of course, the most extreme case is Germany. There's a joke that says, 'The three years of studying in Germany will be the most unforgettable seven years of your life.' Graduation is delayed in various ways, and graduating smoothly is almost impossible."

Fei Tu Hu Po's small mouth was slightly open, and she couldn't close it for a long time: "Ah... this is the university I used to yearn for."

"You don't need to mention the universities you've always dreamed of." Kotobuki Toru gave Hitoko Amber a trusting look: "You're not incapable of going to any of them now. Win a few more G1-level championships, and once you graduate from Treson, a lot of universities will come knocking on your door... If you win the Triple Crown, universities all over Japan will be begging you to enroll. Then study hard, defend your thesis, and you'll be able to wear your bachelor's gown."

"Uh... I still need to focus on my studies and graduation defense, right?"

"Of course, your competition results will only give you more privileges when you enroll, but not when you graduate..."

Kotobuki immediately saw the fear in the eyes of this academically challenged Hibiki Kohaku. "You can't just remember you're a bachelor when you're wearing your graduation gown. A bachelor's degree is earned through study..."

Fei Tu Hu Po pouted: "Fine, I'll just spend my whole life in college."

"It's not as scary as you think. If you find a reliable mentor, most things will become much easier."

Kotobuki Toru weighed the gift box he was preparing to give to his mentor. This gift for the old man wasn't cheap, but Kotobuki Toru was giving it away willingly.

Aside from being a bit gossipy and always meddlesome in other people's business these past few years, my hometown has really been dedicated to its students. In the short six months since I left school, they've managed to arrange everything perfectly for me while I was away... They haven't bothered me with any miscellaneous or troublesome matters.

Thinking of this, Kotobuki Toru had a sudden thought: "If you have excellent results in the competition after graduation and want to study a major related to horse racing, you can definitely find my current mentor, Old Deng... Although he is a bit annoying, he is a really good person."

Hitotsu Amber thought about it and found that Kotobuki Toru's idea was actually feasible. She also knew Kotobuki Toru's mentor, who was kind and gentle... Even though he knew that she was an outsider who came to see Kotobuki Toru, and sometimes the two of them would hide in the last row to eat, he never said anything about kicking her out. Okay!

"Hey, then, doesn't that mean I'm indirectly becoming your junior?"

Kotobuki's heart skipped a beat, and he nodded: "If you count it that way, then it counts?"

To everyone's surprise, Fei Tu Hu Po sweetly called out twice, "Senior~ Senior~"

Kotobuki Toru instantly sensed the murderous intent emanating from his fellow students. After all, university students are the most sexually active and eager for girlfriends… but universities are also where the most single people reside. Hisako's shout could easily trigger a reaction from those clueless single students…

"Ahem... Don't call me senior now, you haven't even passed the exam yet."

"Eh? That... Sen~bei~senpai~senpai~"

Qin Chui Tou almost collapsed to the ground. No wonder those guys he'd spent half a day with kept saying they wanted more female juniors, not male juniors...

If there really were such a charming and lovely girl, calling someone "senior" this and "senior" that, the emotional value would be off the charts.

The first update is here!

Please please please please

Chapter 292 A Horse Girl with Feelings (4,000 words, two chapters combined, bounty 15)

Fei Tu Hu Po's sweet voice was like a nimble little fish, darting through the air, lively yet elusive.

"Senior, please say something."

"Senior, what should I say when I meet your mentor later?"

"senior……"

Fei Tu Hu Po kept calling out "senior, senior," one call after another, like layers of petals blooming in spring, drawing the attention of everyone around as if they wanted to rush up and kill her.

These few "senior" addresses are far more impactful than the previous "senior."

In schools, it's common practice to address older students as "senior" or "senior sister." This is a standard campus rule. For example, at Treson Academy, Hitotsu Amber would call older female horse girls "senior sister," while Big Shock would call younger female horse girls "junior sister."

But when it comes to senior... that has a completely different meaning. The title of senior can be used not only in school, but also in the workplace and in social relationships. Even if there is no distinction between superiors and subordinates or seniority, you can still call someone senior.

Generally speaking, calling someone "senior" is a way of giving you face, probably because you're afraid of being criticized for being impolite. But calling someone "elder" is a genuine expression of respect and goodwill. And who knows, the term "elder" might evolve into a more intimate one someday.

Like Kotobuki Toru, being blatantly led along the campus by the arm by a beautiful girl, who even addressed him as "senpai" (senior), somewhat stung the lonely hearts of everyone.

The closer they got to the academy related to Uma Musume, the more intense the aggressive gazes became, like a dense raindrop.

Now that it's graduation season, everyone is still wondering whether to grit their teeth and apply to a prestigious horse girl academy like Tresson after graduation, or to apply to a simpler horse girl education institution.

This man actually returned in high spirits, leading his horse back in a grand and triumphant manner!

And he doesn't even let the horse girls call him "Trainer-san" or "Trainer-kun," he just calls him "senpai" directly!

"Ah... that guy is Kotobuki Toru, right? He's back in Teresen so early."

"The horse girl next to her, that must be Hitoko Amber, right? She's even prettier than on TV... Kotobuki Toru is truly the envy of everyone."

"Don't even mention it... I'm so sick of hearing that name in class these past few days since the New Year."

The people who saw Kotobuki Toru and Hitoko Haku were all talking about it.

Just as every teacher says, "You are the worst class I have ever taught," every teacher will also tell everyone what their best students were like.

Recently, the name of the outstanding student that everyone hears about is no longer varied, but has been uniformly referred to as Kotobuki Toru.

While everyone else was still looking for jobs during their graduation internships, Kotobuki Toru had already been admitted to the top academy in Treson, Central Treson, with an exceptionally high score on the written exam. In addition to successfully finding a job, he even met an excellent horse girl, who went to the Satsuki Sho with a winning streak.

Of course, every school, ranked by grades and achievements, will have its own top students and underachievers. Even in a university like Hokkaido, where only top students can get in, there will be a difference between 600 points and 601 points. When faced with such differences, everyone should just take it easy.

At first, everyone listened with great interest to the story of Qin Chui Tou, but after hearing it so many times, they gradually became numb to it.

However, seeing is believing. Today, when the students from other groups saw Kotobuki Toru and Hitokohaku with their own eyes, their composure crumbled instantly.

Qin Chuitou is indeed somewhat handsome, and it wouldn't be wrong to say he's as good-looking as Pan An... But everyone thinks they're not bad-looking either. If Qin Chuitou can be called Pan An, then they might as well be called Song Yu.

Anyway, when men evaluate other men, they usually agree that each other is handsome.

What truly broke down everyone's defenses was actually the beauty of the Scarlet Amber...

It was an unimaginable beauty; even with her leg in a cast, her endearing charm was undeniable, making her seem completely unlike someone who could be a lightning-fast, dominating figure on the field.

Moreover, it's not just her looks; Hitoko has also proven through her undefeated racing record that she is indeed an extremely talented horse girl.

Most trainers are content with simply having excellent talent; after all, it's unrealistic to expect too much.

Everyone used to be like Elder Jinchi, always comforting themselves that it's good enough to have something, and that any kind of responsibility is a responsibility.

But now that Scarlet Amber has appeared... her looks and talent are like the various jewels inlaid on that brocade robe, so dazzling that people can't open their eyes.

Break through the defenses! Break through the major defenses!

"I'm going to take the Central Teresa exam too, today! I'm determined to find someone like Hito Amber who can take on such a responsibility!"

"But I heard that Kotobuki Toru met Hitokohaku in Sapporo. I was there at the time... It's said that Kotobuki Toru complained to customer service, and the complaint ended up being directed at Hitokohaku, who then called him through the internet."

"Oh, I see... Is it too late for me to call and complain to customer service now?"

"Aren't you just looking for trouble? Don't hurt innocent people!"

The classmate in front of her, who had lost her temper, was about to kneel down and pound the grass like someone who had lost a pachinko game. Kotobuki Toru glared at Hitoko Amber: "Look... don't shout 'senpai' so loudly, the others can't stand it."

“I didn’t see any different reaction from you.” Fei Tu Hu Po shrugged. “I heard what they said too… Your classmates were all so excited to see me, but you didn’t have much of a reaction at all.”

"So what kind of reaction do you want from me?"

"..."

Fei Tu Hu Po was speechless for a moment, and couldn't think of what to say.

The nightingale-like Hitoko Amber fell silent, and since no one was causing trouble for her, Kotobuki Toru quickly pulled Hitoko Amber along and hurried towards their mentor's office building.
