Uma Musume: I am the Card Master

Then I called the poetic drama I was waiting for.

…………

Machigane Poetry Drama angrily pulled out her phone, "I told you, Machigane Poetry Drama is a very smart pony, don't even think about lying to me!"

But upon closer inspection of the note, she realized it was her trainer!

She immediately showed a look of surprise, "Trainer, it's my turn to perform in the poetry drama!"

About ten minutes later, Daiken Shoju scratched his head and said, "Trainer, are you kidding me? Aren't those so-called staff members scammers?"

Sally nodded. "That's right, they're all staff members of the Horse Girls Association, no..."

beep beep...

Before Sally could finish speaking, she discovered that the call had been abruptly cut off.

"Huh...huh?"

Sally was completely dumbfounded. What was going on?

Could it be that the connection is down?

On the other end of the phone, the poet patted his chest and said, "Hehe, luckily I'm smart enough. This should be the one that's been really popular lately... what was it again?"

Yes! AI scams, trying to fool intelligent, part-time poetry and drama students? Absolutely not!

…………

The staff member next to Sally said, "Trainer Sally, Miss Poetry Drama seems to think you're a scammer. She hung up on us before we could finish speaking."

When we called again later, the actress playing the role of a poetry drama director would just say we were scammers.

Sally pointed to her phone, "But I called using my own phone! My number is saved in her contacts!"

How could she possibly think I'm a scammer!

Sally's voice was full of disbelief.

The staff on the other side seemed to have heard something funny and burst into laughter in unison.

"Trainer Sally, do you think our phones don't have the official notification from the Racecourse Girls Association?"

Sally was stunned. Could it be... that she was really being treated like a fraud?

But, can't that idiot, the poet, even recognize his own voice?

…………

Suiyuan listened to Sally's words without any change in expression. Although it was unexpected, it was also reasonable.

It perfectly matches a silly, goofy personality.

"Alright, leave this to me. I'll handle it. I'll go to the U.S. and bring her back while I'm at it."

I was a little worried about letting her come to Japan alone; I just didn't know if she'd be willing to come with me to see the Northern Lights. If she wasn't, then my trip would have been a waste.

There was a two or three-second silence on the other end of the phone, and then Sally seemed to have made up her mind.

"How about this, I'll ask the Horse Racing Girls Association for leave and go with you."

If she's unwilling, I can try to persuade her.

Can he take leave for this 'tutoring'?

"Hey, hey, hey, this is just tutoring, it's not like I'm going to jail. In the Uma Musume Association, as long as it's related to Uma Musume, all the rules are negotiable."

This is a major event involving a transfer between teams for Uma Musume (a popular Japanese horse racing show), so the Uma Musume Association will definitely approve it!

Sally's voice was full of confidence, and there was indeed such a rule in the Horse Girls Association.

"Okay, I'll head out first. You're closer, so I won't wait for you."

"Okay, then I'll go find the staff of the Horse Racing Girls Association."

After saying that, the two hung up the phone at the same time.

Maruzensky walked in with a smile. "Trainer, I'll send you to the US this time."

Suiyuan stared at Maruzensky, who seemed to have appeared out of nowhere, and said, "You're going to take me to the US? How are you going to take me... I'll go!"

Suiyuan's eyes widened as he saw Maruzensky holding a pilot's license.

Maruzensky felt a little smug. "Although it's a private pilot's license, it's enough."

"There are no planes there either..."

"Yep."

Maruzenski winked at Suiyuan, "After discussing it, we Aurora Racer Girls used the little money we had with you, Trainer, to buy one. Trainer, you're not angry, are you?"

Suiyuan ruffled Wanshanski's hair. "What's there to be angry about? It's your own money. Spend it however you want."

Maruzen-saki hugged Toshiyuki, "Trainer, that's a lot of money, aren't you tempted?"

Looking at Maruzensky's beautiful face, Suiyuan felt a flutter in his heart.

Maruzensky rolled his eyes. "Who's talking about me? I'm talking about money!"

Suiyuan revealed a disdainful expression. If he really wanted money, he would have been better off becoming a doctor. With his medical skills, he could easily earn hundreds of millions.

These days, you might not even earn a small fortune even after running more than ten races.

Maruzensky chuckled. "Alright, consider this a stupid question I asked."

Wasting money?

What does it mean to waste money? Can this plane be used? If it can be used, then it's not considered wasting money.

And so what if they squander their money? They're using their own money, why should we meddle?

All I need to do is support them unconditionally.

It's a very happy thing to have your little whims supported.

"I'm going to the US. Who's coming with me this time?"

boom!

The door was pushed open, and several racehorse girls tumbled in.

"Double...Double Turbine Lord is going along!"

Although she was overshadowed by several racehorse girls, she still managed to raise her hand.

Suiyuan crossed her arms and smiled as she looked at them.

"Hey you guys, what are you trying to do, hiding in the back all this time?"

Golden Ship looked embarrassed. "Um, Trainer, you already noticed, hahaha!"

"Hmm, yeah."

Suiyuan had a smile on his face. These racehorse girls in his team were really a bunch of clowns.

The famous general, Nu Tao, lowered his head in fear. Oh no, he had been eavesdropping on the trainer's conversation. He was sure to be disliked!

Big Tree Express had a hearty smile on his face, showing no sign of embarrassment whatsoever.

Mi Yu pointed her fingers at each other, "Because we wasted money, and we were afraid you'd be angry, trainer, so..."

"Spending money recklessly? What do you mean by spending money recklessly?"

Suiyuan interrupted Miyu.

Suiyuan held up one finger. "You haven't been wasting money. We can all use this plane, right? And even if we don't use it, it means you really like something you don't need."

Since you like it, this thing isn't exactly useless, so everything you bought is useful. Do you understand?

The horse racers were a little confused by Suiyuan's words, so he added, "In short, I fully support your choice."

Chapter 337 Setting Off Again (USA)

"This time we're going to pick up a racehorse girl, so we need to be quick. Narita Daisuke, Urara, Oguri Hat, and our captain Maru Zenki..."

Suiyuan suddenly turned to look at Maruzensky, "Um, is there a co-pilot?"

Generally speaking, airplanes are flown by two people.

Maru Zenki covered his mouth, a look of surprise on his face. "The trainer is amazing! I hadn't even mentioned it yet, and you already figured out there's a co-pilot!"

A black-haired racehorse girl walked in from outside. She looked a little shy. Suiyuan just wanted to say that this was completely out of character for her!

Fuji Stone!

Maruzenji put his arm around Fujikishi's neck. "This is my co-pilot!"

Suiyuan nodded to Fuji Kiseki, "Then I'll have to trouble you this time. I never imagined you were so talented, Fuji Kiseki."

Fujiki scratched his cheek. "Because I had a lot of free time, I took some certification exams."

Suiyuan leaned closer with interest. "Some? Do you have any other documents besides this?"

Fujiki smiled and nodded. After exchanging a few casual words, she returned to her original form.

"That's right, I've taken quite a few tests for certificates and credentials."

Fujiki took out a number of documents from his small bag.

Suiyuan took it and glanced at it, then froze.

Truck driver's license, tank driver's license, ship driver's license... In addition to these, there are a bunch of strange certificates.

Suiyuan gave a thumbs up, "To be honest, you're really strong."

Hearing Suiyuan's praise, Fuji Kiseki smiled shyly, "I'm still far behind Trainer Suiyuan 々¨."

After the pleasantries, it's time to get down to business.

"Then let's set off now. If all goes well, we can be back a little later tomorrow. The sooner we go, the sooner we come back. I still want to see my Miura Popon's debut match."

As he spoke, Suiyuan winked at Miura Naboro, who was standing next to him.

Although Miura Bourbon remained expressionless, Toshiyuki could tell that she was very happy.

…………

"Wow, so...so cool..."

Suiyuan looked at the plane in front of him... What should this be called, an itasha (a type of Japanese anime/manga)?

The plane's fuselage is painted with his own anime image, along with many photos of himself wearing headphones, holding a laptop, and watching the game with a furrowed brow.

Maruzensky looked very proud. Pointing to the aircraft, she said, "Trainer, what do you think! I took a liking to this aircraft at first sight. I showed it to everyone, and they all said it was great. I bought it outright with the full amount!"

Suiyuan's lips twitched slightly. He had thought it was just a small plane, but now it seemed to be more like a small passenger plane!

"What do you mean by that tiny bay?"

Suiyuan comforted himself, thinking that Super Little Bay definitely didn't know, and if it did, it certainly wouldn't allow them to act so recklessly.

Maruzensky's smile remained unchanged. "Super Little Bay likes it very much too. She also thinks this plane is very beautiful. Super Little Bay, Representative Chiaki, and even Otana Fumiko all contributed money!"

Suiyuan raised his head, trying hard not to let his tears fall. My little bay, you have no idea how terrible it would be if this thing were to go out like this!

"Let's get going."

Maruzensky raised his little fist. "Roger that, let's go!"

…………

Representative Qianming leaned against the window, watching the planes taking off in the distance. "Little Bay, do you think the trainer might be unhappy or angry?"

Super Little Bay showed no sign of worry. "Don't worry, when has the trainer ever gotten angry with us over something so trivial? Besides..."

Super Little Bay smiled slightly, "An occasional prank can actually make couples' relationships even closer~"

…………

Suiyuan looked at the scenery outside, and the feeling of flying in his own plane and flying on a public plane... was not much different!

That was Toshiyuki's first impression: Maru Zenki's piloting skills were superb, comparable to those of veteran captains with many years of experience.

So sitting in it is quite enjoyable, and there's hardly any bumpy ride.

Ulala and the others fly around with him every day, so they're used to this kind of situation now.
