Uma Musume, Master of Love

"Girl, you're here...Good fortune shines upon you! Today's fortune-telling is only open for you. Come and do it." The mother-in-law took Huiyi's hand, her eyes full of affection. After Huiyi sat down, she didn't take out the fortune-telling tube, but instead placed a fortune stick on the table, on which was engraved Huiyi's current mobile phone number.

Huiyi held the wooden stick with a surprised expression. Her mother-in-law said, "You're surprised, aren't you? I'm surprised too... But it's undeniable that the deity other than the three goddesses cares about you a lot... It was she who provided it to me."

"What kind of opening method is this... wait, it's Pegasus again...?"

Huiyi saw the name and a little horse girl pattern engraved in the corner of the signature, except that the horse girl had wings. Huiyi looked at her mother-in-law, who also gently shook her head.

Are the gods really that free? She can just casually open boxes like that, could she sue Pegasus?

But the problem comes again...

"What exactly is my relationship with Pegasus? It was her last time, and it's her again this time... Is there something special about me?" Huiyi asked her mother-in-law, puzzled. The mother-in-law broke the slip of paper in half and threw it into the trash can, then took out the bamboo tube, shook it a few times, and placed it in front of Huiyi.

"Have a smoke; maybe this will give you the answer."

Only the old woman knew that the entire bamboo slip container was blank. Under normal circumstances, Huiyi wouldn't receive any information no matter which slip he chose, but it was different because the gods had personally carved their marks...

Huiyi randomly picked one of the lots and placed it on the table. As her mother-in-law had expected, a pattern appeared on the lot: "We have to draw lots again... Alright, I'll choose this one..."

The pattern looks like a street... Huiyi felt this place looked familiar, the layout of the houses and the details engraved on them...

“I must have seen this place somewhere before, I must have seen it somewhere before…” Huiyi rubbed her forehead. It was already very hot in May. The wind blowing past her trouser legs brought a bit of coolness. It was this coolness that traveled from her ankles to her brain that made Huiyi suddenly realize something.

"This is the store where I was taken!"

Huiyi was deeply impressed by the place where she almost froze to death back then, and now it was almost replicated on the small sign. Huiyi was already somewhat puzzled by Pegasus. Why would she use this method to attract her attention...?

“Child, I now believe something. Someone once told me that there is a very special kind of racehorse girl in this world... Their bloodline is directly related to the horse goddess. I didn’t believe it at the time, but seeing you... I think it’s true.”

"What does this have to do with me... Mother-in-law, I'm totally confused myself! I was adopted when I was little. If it weren't for my current parents, I would have frozen into an icicle on the streets of Tokyo long ago." Huiyi slammed the sign on the table, feeling like she had been tricked. She might as well find a hotel to stay in and wait for the derby to start.

The Oak Tournament has concluded, with Cisario overwhelming all competitors to secure her first G1 victory. So far, it seems that only Rhine Force has fared the worst in this episode... coming so close to G1 so many times, yet never managing to win a single G1 match, which is quite regrettable.

Grandma held Huiyi's hand and said softly, "Perhaps I don't understand... but you really might be Pegasus's child."

The amount of information was overwhelming, and Huiyi's mind was a little sluggish. However, she sensed sincerity in her mother-in-law's eyes; she wasn't lying… So, she really was the legendary bloodline of a god? But… why herself? If she really was Pegasus, why wasn't she in Europe but in Japan?

"I...I think I understand now. I think I know who to ask for help. Thank you for telling me all this, Grandma. I'm very grateful." Huiyi thanked her and left. It seems she will have to seek help from Suzi in the future.

Or... let Master Kobayashi arrange a so-called communication with the gods for me?

Anyway... I should give it a try first.

Monster Hunter is fun

Dual swords are fun

Finding footprints isn't fun.

No, hehe.

Chapter 192 The Greatly Shocking Second Crown

The derby is arguably the most important race of the first half of the year, and the title of Derby Girl is the most important title in the hearts of every horse girl. There have been too many times in history that horse girls have exhausted all their future potential on the final straight in Tokyo in order to win the honor of Derby Girl.

Before the race, every female racehorse and her trainer was incredibly nervous, and Da Zhen was no exception. She was restless in the preparation room, pacing back and forth until she broke out in a cold sweat in just a few minutes while waiting to enter the arena.

Xiao Haiwan sat gracefully to the side, comforting Da Zhenhan, "Deep-chan, you don't need to be too nervous~ Just do your best! If Huiyi were here, I think she would say the same thing. Little Huiyi is watching you from the stands."

“Yes… Huiyi, Huiyi… hiss. Don’t be nervous, after exiting the gate, accelerate out of the corner… that’s right, that’s right. Don’t rush forward…” Da Zhenhan kept muttering the steps he had to follow. Even though he had run so many races, he couldn’t completely control his body. Da Zhenhan would subconsciously move forward because of his excessive competitive spirit, thus losing his advantage and falling behind.

Huiyi had reminded her more than once, but it turned out that the racehorse girl really had to succumb to her instincts... But she would definitely remember this shock, because she would have to compete with that arrogant chestnut calf in this race!

In the previous two matches, the shock stemmed from seeing Shang Dongying flee, creating the illusion that failure to pursue would lead to a crushing defeat. But this time, she learned from Huiyi's words and built a resolute determination to win... All she needed to do was maintain her own rhythm! Shang Dongying's escape was absolutely impossible!

"Time's up, Great Shock! If we win, we'll have a dinner party in the training room tonight, it's on me!" Naze Fumino encouraged them. Motivating the horse girls before the race was extremely important, and Fumino knew that Great Shock's motivation came from Shining White Horse.

It's completely unbelievable that our team's star racehorse girl would be so thoroughly outmatched by the white horse from the opposing team...

"Okay... Trainer, Senior Xiaohaiwan, I'm off!" He clenched his right fist and pounded it on his chest, took a deep breath, and strode out of the preparation room.

Then, Kobayashi rested her chin on her hand and said, "Fumino, I think this derby is pretty much over... I can see that none of the racehorse girls participating have even two-thirds the momentum of the Great Shock, although it's possible that some racehorse girls might burn themselves out along the way..."

"We're out of options now, Little Bay. All we can do is trust in the Great Shock, right? I've already prepared the money to treat everyone. Our team plus Kitahara's team... at least two big eaters." Fumino held a bank card between her fingers, a smile on her lips but tinged with bitterness.

Of course... If someone can laugh happily while being treated to a big eater, they're a miracle worker... But deep down, Fumino has a feeling that nothing good is going to happen tonight...

In the stands, Huiyi had come to the racetrack early from the hotel but hadn't had time to eat. He could only buy a plate of Five Eyes Fried Rice from a food stall inside the stadium to tide him over. Looking at the busy Golden Boat at the stall, Huiyi felt that Golden Boat could actually be a qualified wife.

"Golden Boat, why did you switch from selling Golden Fried Noodles to Five-Eye Fried Rice this time? Do you change the menu every time?" Huiyi was so bored while waiting that she started chatting with Golden Boat. Golden Boat's wok-flipping movements were quite stylish.

Golden Ship replied, "Little Golden Ship is proficient in all kinds of martial arts, and it's just a matter of saying what you want to eat! Hey Huiyi, what do you think about me opening an ice cream stand next time? It's so hot in June, Yasuda Commemorative, so it's reasonable to eat some ice cream, right?"

"It's really good! It would be best if there were more flavor options." After taking the Five Eyes Fried Rice packaged by Golden Ship, Huiyi gave her suggestion and left. She could already hear the voices introducing the racehorse girls inside the arena.

Back in his seat, Huiyi opened the package but hadn't even taken his first bite when Xiaolimao's large hand covered his and scooped up almost a third of the fried rice. Huiyi gave him a look that widened in shock.

[The undisputed number one favorite made a stunning entrance into the gate with great success, representing the once-in-a-lifetime glory of the Japanese derby for the classic-era racehorse girl...]

[The competition has begun!]

As soon as the gates opened, there were signs of people rushing to take pictures, but they were quickly suppressed. The figure of the chestnut hair took the lead and occupied the first position. The gaze of the Great Shock was fixed on her and never moved away, which made the viewers in front of her always feel a chill behind them.

From her higher vantage point, Huiyi had a clearer view of the situation. The horses were all moving forward without any problems, although they were still a bit slow compared to her. Da Zhenhan restrained himself well and stayed at the very back, which suited him best.

As NHK previously stated, Tokyo Racecourse is very favorable for the start of the race for Saima Musume. With an absolute acceleration advantage on the straight of over 500 meters, Daishinko has no worries about being overtaken by Saima Musume since Saima Musume is no longer behind her.

"Just maintain this state..." Huiyi watched the race with tension, while Xiaoli Mao was also fully focused on the track, but her hands were still instinctively scooping up the five-eyed fried rice spoonful by spoonful.

The terminology for the Uma Musume team hasn't changed much. However, Daisen has been using small speed boosts to force the Uma Musume in front of him to move forward, which can be considered a strategy. But the time for Daisen to truly shine hasn't come yet... This is Daisen's signature move, and at least so far, no one has been able to replicate it!

[The Japanese team is the first to pass through turn four, inevitably starting to slow down as they navigate the corner... But!]

"The Great Shock is coming, full speed on the bend!" Huiyi was confident that no racehorse girl could overtake the Great Shock on the bend, and the same was true now. A dark shadow came from the outside, carrying a fierce aura that struck the passing racehorse girls. The biting cold made people feel scared.

Is this really the level of performance that our classic-era Saima Girls can display? This is the mindset of most Saima Girls: giving it their all, pushing their bodies to the limit, trying to catch up with the shadow of Daishin, but ultimately to no avail...

Shang Dongying felt a shadow whizz past her, and even though she gritted her teeth and mustered all her strength, she could only watch as the shadow crossed the finish line.

The victory was undeniable and effortless, and for Da Zhenhan, the autumn chrysanthemum viewing was a sure thing.

Facing the roaring audience, Da Zhenhan, panting slightly, raised his second finger high.

Chapter 193 Will the male and female members of the Hong Kong team go into heat?

The afterglow of the Japanese derby will continue until after the Chrysanthemum Appreciation Tournament. Right now, posters promoting the undefeated status of the "Great Shock" can be seen everywhere on the streets and alleys. Huiyi feels a bit speechless about this, as her two championships have only been hanging for a few days!

The two teams went out for a big meal that night after the match. Huiyi and Xiaolimao both performed exceptionally well at the dinner table, successfully getting Naise Fumino to choose to split the meal with Kitahara AA. However, in addition to the members of the two teams, there was also a guest who came: Naise Fumino's father, Naise Eito.

When Huiyi first met Naise Eito, he felt a chill run down his spine when he met his sharp eyes. This was one of the few times he had met someone who was actually older than him. In the past, he hadn't felt anything, but this time Huiyi felt that Naise Eito could see right through him.

Finally, Huiyi realized that Naze Eito wanted to say something but restrained himself. Before leaving, Huiyi inexplicably asked her to take her to the airport the next day. How could Naze Eito say something like that to a girl he had just met?

Not only was Huiyi stunned, but Fumino and Kitahara were also quite bewildered. What was wrong with their father (Eijin-senpai)? Why did he suddenly ask her to see him off at the airport? Besides, Fumino remembered that Eijin didn't have any plans to go abroad recently, so shouldn't she, his daughter, be the one to see him off at the airport?!

Although Huiyi was a little reluctant, she saw the look in Yingren's eyes that belonged only to a seasoned, experienced boss: I have something to discuss with you, and as for explanations, this occasion is not appropriate.

Huiyi understood immediately, feeling like she was back at work, so she finally agreed. What if Naise Eito taught her some more skills...?

Who knows, this kind of interaction could even be used to trigger a friend card? Although it's unlikely that triggering it once would give you a gold skill... CY wouldn't be so foolish as to design a support card like this, would they? Huiyi thought to himself, this kind of thing is too unbelievable.

So the next day, despite being sleep-deprived, Huiyi arrived at the academy gate. Naise Eito was already waiting in the car. Still half asleep, Huiyi got in the car, yawning incessantly.

“Brilliant White Horse, I’ve seen your stats. But I was still quite surprised when I saw you in person, such a small horse girl. You have such high endurance evolution potential.” The Englishman was busy driving, and since his luggage was in the back seat, Brilliant simply rested her head on it.

Huiyi was a little slow to process what he was saying because he was sleepy: "Yawn... What did Nase-senpai call me here for... It can't just be about this, right?"

“I can tell you’re a bit special, though there’s no reason why. It’s all based on my decades of experience as a trainer. I also have a vague recollection of your earrings; I saw them in a small town in Europe once. Perhaps I can find some clues there. After all… you were an orphan, weren’t you?”

With a whoosh, Huiyi snapped awake and sat up straight: "How did you know? Shouldn't I be a child of the Satomi family?"

"With my connections, I'll know if I want to. If you really were a Satomi family child, I wouldn't be so interested. You are the most unique racehorse girl I've seen in my decades in the industry. Fumino is still too young, as is Kitahara. It's normal that they didn't notice you."

"I always feel like you're saying my trainers have a poor foundation." Huiyi pouted, which made Yingren laugh.

“No, Kitahara’s potential is also very high. You opened up a path for her. Trainers and racehorse girls have always complemented each other… But that’s not what I wanted to say. My decision to go abroad on short notice was also because of you,” Eijin said.

Huiyi was taken aback, then reached into her ear and tugged at it a few times: "Then I think you don't have to go."

“I want to investigate your background. You have some strange features that are unusual for a horse girl, but if you connect them to the legendary divine blood stallion horse girl, then it makes sense. And the place where divine blood stallions appear most often is Europe, so I want to investigate from there.”

"You're just putting in a lot of effort for no reward, aren't you?"

"This is the dedication of a horse-themed scholar. You should know that I'm not just a retired trainer. This matter satisfies my thirst for knowledge and also provides you with answers about your origins. Isn't it a win-win situation?"

Huiyi clicked his tongue, as if he was indeed not at a disadvantage, but what were Naise Eito's conditions?

"Then let me ask you, what do you want me to do?"

After arriving at the airport parking lot, Naze Eito got out of the car and asked Huiyi to help him carry two pieces of luggage before walking to the departure hall: "As for what you need to do... first, help me carry my luggage, and second, help me drive the car back to Teresen."

After saying all that, Naze Eito went through security and left right on time, leaving Huiyi bewildered with the car keys he had given him.

"So... how did you figure out I had a driver's license?!" Huiyi cried out inwardly. She did have a driver's license, but that was in her past life. What was worse, she hadn't had a chance to drive since she got her license!!

Sitting on the curb outside the airport, Huiyi had a sense of beauty in gazing at the sky. Naise Eito's car was still parked in the parking lot. If you really wanted to say that Huiyi could drive, she was afraid of being caught driving without a license... If that happened, her racing career would probably have to end prematurely.

"Then let me ask you, do you want to come in advance?"

"Come to training early! Yasuda Memorial Day is coming soon. If we don't come early, will we still have time to adapt to training?"

Two women carrying large and small bags walked out of the airport, blaming each other. At the same time, they looked down at their phones, and their eyes showed a hint of confusion.

Their trainer had some matters to attend to in Hong Kong, so they had to come to Japan alone ahead of time. But now they've forgotten one very important thing: they don't speak Japanese and they didn't buy a Japanese SIM card when they came out.

The Elite Master and the Bull Spirit Lucky Star exchanged a glance, then turned to see the white-haired horse girl sitting on the curb, her eyes fixed on them. The Elite Master blinked and instinctively sniffed.

Dude, dude, it turns out there really are a lot of beautiful girls in Japan…! I just stepped out of the airport and ran into a stunningly beautiful white-haired girl on the curb…!

Huiyi hadn't heard Chinese for over a decade. Although the other person was speaking Cantonese, which was a bit difficult to understand, it was still Chinese! But after looking at each other, they realized something: they knew each other.

"What?! Isn't this the Radiant White Horse?!" The Ox Spirit Lucky Star felt like he'd run into his nemesis.

Huiyi, having just managed to utter a few words of Chinese, blurted out a Japanese phrase instead: "?!"

Chapter 194 All White-Haired Women Are Bad

Elite Master and Ox Spirit Lucky Star couldn't understand the Japanese Huiyi was speaking, but he understood perfectly what they were saying in Cantonese.

Recently, I've been so busy with my own background and the hugely exciting Japanese derby that I'm completely unaware of the exact time they'll arrive in Japan. All I know about the news from Hong Kong is that they'll be attending the Yasuda Memorial, but I have no idea.

But how could she encounter such bad luck twice in one day? Naze Eito made her drive back to return the car without a license, but then she ran into those two Hong Kong racehorse girls at the airport…

“Uh… Kou Ni Ji Wa…?” Niu Jing Fu Xing uttered Japanese that was hard to understand. Hui Yi stood up from the curb, hesitated, and finally scratched his head helplessly.

"Although I'm a little rusty now... I can still speak Chinese." Because she hadn't spoken Chinese for a long time, Huiyi's Mandarin had a strong colonel's accent. Sure enough, some things will become rusty if you don't use them for a long time, even if they are engraved in your DNA. Anyway, she couldn't help but smile as she listened to herself.

There's no way around it; the impression from those anti-Japanese war dramas from my past life is still there. And when I think about how I can't change my accent no matter how hard I try, it's hard for a normal person to hold it in, right?

The two Hong Kong team racers were now somewhat embarrassed. If the other party understood Chinese, had they overheard what "Bull Spirit Lucky Star" had said? Although there had been a minor misunderstanding between them online a month ago, such remarks were inappropriate...

So the elite master spoke up: "We were just surprised that the currently incredibly popular racehorse girl would appear on the curb in such an... unseemly manner. Please forgive us..."

No matter what, this is Japan, the opponent's home turf. Elite Master doesn't think he'll have many fans in Japan... Besides, a few days ago, he was defeated by Niu Jing Fu Xing in his first Mile race and lost his winning streak of more than ten games. Now, Elite Master himself is starting to doubt his Mile level.

"It's alright, it's alright. If I were in that situation, I might be even more rude. You guys are going to Treson, right?" Huiyi took the initiative to change the subject. If the other party was also going to Treson, it would be worthwhile for the three of them to share a car and hire a driver.

The Elite Master nodded in agreement: "Hmm... According to the schedule, we should arrive in Japan in two days. However, the trainer is tied up with business in Hong Kong and it will be difficult for him to arrive in Hong Kong in two days. So we'll just come and get used to it ourselves first."

“It’s good to develop a habit, huh? Well, you guys come back with me then. I came to the airport to see someone off, but after that old man left, he just dumped the car on me without even considering the driver’s license issue.” Huiyi waved to Elite Master and Niu Jing Fuxing to follow him to the parking lot. He originally wanted to find a designated driver… but after seeing the post and content of Maru Shanqi on Twitter, it seems that she is near the airport?

First, let the Elite Master and the Ox Spirit Lucky Star put the luggage in Naise Eito's car. Huiyi walked to the side alone and dialed Maruzensky's phone. During this time, the two horse racing girls whispered to each other.

"Senior Sister, Huiyi Baiju doesn't seem as aggressive as she was online that time. She looks more like a random female horse?" Niu Jing Fuxing touched her smooth ears, and there was no decoration on the top of the Elite Master's head. Hong Kong's female horse racers almost never wear earrings.

After a moment's thought, the Elite Master said, "It's normal for there to be a big difference between your online image and your real life. You may not know that Huiyi Baiju is actually a very popular streamer in Japan. In the words of her fans, 'super infuriating' would be a more accurate description."

"Huh? Does a horse racer even have time to stream... Just how free is she?"

"Perhaps this is another manifestation of their extraordinary talent, winning races without much training," the Elite Master said. She was never one to underestimate her opponents, and in the previous race, she indeed couldn't defeat the Bull Spirit Lucky Star.

However, Niu Jingfuxing was still wary of Huiyi because of the online incident last month. She replied, "That was just because Japanese female racehorses are generally weaker, so she won by luck... When she comes to Hong Kong, I'll definitely show her what a real sprint race is like!"

"You should win a match in Japan first before talking about this kind of thing!!" The Elite Master punched Niu Jing Fuxing on the head without any mercy. She always taught her juniors not to underestimate their opponents in any match, but Niu Jing Fuxing's stubbornness was still a bit hard to change.

Niu Jingfuxing clutched his head in pain, feeling somewhat surprised. How come the Elite Master had changed so much since arriving in Japan...? Could it be that his senior had been manipulated by Huiyi?

That's not right. How could this happen when she only glanced at it and wasn't even that familiar? Could it be that the master was mind-controlled by the white-haired horse just from one glance...? Although... although even the bull spirit Lucky Star has to admit that Huiyi is a rare white-haired horse girl, her looks are naturally beyond question, and her performance on the field is enough for her to retire successfully in Japan.

After all, those were three Game 1 victories.

Logically speaking, beauties of this caliber should belong to the strong, and by now, the Japanese Teresa should have already divided them up. Master, don't get involved in this mess! You can't compete with these Japanese beauties!

Niu Jingfuxing suddenly felt that this trip to Japan would be very unsettling, not only at the Yasuda Memorial Stadium, but also from now on there were some signs of trouble... She could sense that the Elite Master's eyes were full of admiration for the white-haired man.

"Master...you must learn to control yourself, that's what you taught me..." Niu Jing Fuxing whispered, after all, in the romance novels she had read, even if the Master won over Huiyi, a long-distance relationship wouldn't end well...

The elite master patted his cheek: "What nonsense are you thinking? I only have Yasuda Kinen on my mind. Shining White Horse is just a slightly threatening newcomer. What I'm most proud of on the field is not my physical ability, but more my experience on the field."
