A cute girl’s heart is capable of anything

"Let's build tomorrow together"

"Transformed into hope"

"Transformed in the dazzling light"

"Although sadness fills my heart, I can't just cry."

"A warm mood will definitely create a bright future"

After singing these lyrics, the black-haired Ma Niang on the stage extended her palm to Saito Asuka, who was standing inconspicuously in the sea of ​​people.

“Although sadness fills my heart, crying can’t save anything.”

"sure)"

"Your (dream)"

"Power (in this moment)"

"The power to move forward"

"Because I believe it, let's start——!"

"..."

Saito Asuka in the crowd dug into his pockets out of habit, but failed to find a lighter or cigarette case.

Only then did he remember that he had quit smoking shortly after Qingzhu Fengya entered school.

The reason why I started smoking in the first place was because I wanted to reduce the stress on myself.

Speaking of which, it must be thanks to Qingzhu Fengya.

Not only Himeji Treson, but also everyone in Himeji Treson Academy...

Everyone is being influenced by her in a subtle way.

Saito Asuka shook his head as he remembered Qingzhu Fuga's usual attitude towards others.

The expressions on everyone's faces are no longer as gloomy as before.

…It’s really great.

"...even without the waving glow sticks"

"But now we are no longer afraid because we are with each other."

On the stage, the winning stage of the horse girls continues.

Qingzhu Fengya, who was standing at the front, held a microphone in one hand and raised the other hand high.

She raised her head and looked at her palms and the stars that gave off a faint light in the dark night.

As if to catch them, Qingzhu Fengya slowly closed her raised palms, clenched them into fists, and then lowered them.

——Finally, stop at the chest.

"Take all the confusion and melancholy into your heart"

“Follow the direction guided by the compass in your heart.”

"The (dream) remains in (the palm)"

"The fragrance of flowers (is the paradise I have always longed for)"

"Continue towards victory DASH——!"

The last lyrics were sung by Qingzhu Fengya.

The black-haired horse girl, surrounded by tall and short horse girls, stretched out her left arm, and then opened her clenched left hand under everyone's gaze.

She turned her palms down, as if she wanted to scatter the plucked stars on the ground.

Follow the direction guided by the compass in your heart...

Looking at the three horse girls on the stage who were finishing their moves, Asuka Saito put his hands into his jacket pockets and repeated the lyrics in his mind with a smile.

...It is indeed a very fitting song.

————The author has something to say———

Thanks to the Watchers of the Sea of ​​Stars for the two packs of spicy sticks!Thank you so much!

ps: ...Cavan is getting more and more serious and numb.

Please save this school that is about to be abandoned! : 1 Chapter [-]: The trainer’s duty is to help them realize their dreams

"...After the Yayoi Prize is over, the next competition to start is the Classic Triple Crown."

In the players' lounge, Spica's trainer Koji Okino, who had thick dark circles under his eyes, pressed the pause button and paused the projected video of the Yayoi Prize competition at the moment when the black-haired horse girl crossed the line.

Then, the stubble-faced man turned around, slapped his palm on the lowered screen, and at the same time stretched out a finger to point at the person sitting not far away with a crescent-like highlight on his forehead. The petite horse girl.

"emperor!"

"Trainer, I'm here!"

When Koji Okino called out her name, the petite horse girl raised her right hand high and answered energetically.

"The Yayoi Prize is over! Next is the classic Triple Crown event that horse girls can only participate in once in a lifetime!"

Okino Koji, who was holding a lollipop in his mouth, clenched his fist with one hand: "That means...you will finally meet Qingzhu Fuga on the field!"

"Are you ready for battle? Emperor!"

"Oh! It's already ready!"

The Emperor of the East China Sea clenched the hand raised above his head into a fist and said with great momentum: "...No matter who the opponent is, I will defeat her head-on on the field!"

"The Emperor will never lose!"

"very good!"

Okino Koji gave a thumbs up: "Then go on the field with this belief that you must win!"

"I'm looking forward to what kind of victory declaration you will make on the winner's stage after completing the 'Undefeated Triple Crown', Emperor?"

"Hmph... Trainer, please stay tuned, the emperor's undefeated legend will continue!"

The Emperor of the East China Sea pushed away the chair under him, stood up, and put his hands on his hips with a proud look on his face.

"Even if my opponent is her, I won't lose!"

"very good!"

Okino Koji nodded with satisfaction: "...There is still more than a month before the start of the classic Triple Crown event, so let's use this last time to carry out the final intensive training!"

"it is good--!"

The Donghai Emperor, who is determined to win the upcoming classic Triple Crown event, drew out his final words: "Come on, trainer!"

"Okay, then I'm welcome!"

Okino Koji stretched out his hand: "In the end, let us work harder together!"

"Oh--!"

The Emperor of the East China Sea also reached out his hand quite cooperatively and gave a high-five to Okino Koji who was standing in front of him.

"...then trainer, can you tell us today's training plan?"

After the Donghai Emperor Yuanqi's voice fell, the third person's voice sounded in the lounge.

Yamato Chiji looked at the two people standing in front of the screen, with helplessness written on his face: "...It's already late today, isn't it?"

"Today's training... do you want to play that little game again?"

As Okino Koji said this, he pointed at a white blanket against the wall.

"Absolutely not!"

As soon as this sentence was spoken by Okino Koji, it was rejected by Mejiro McQueen.

Under everyone's gaze, the resistance on his face almost overflowed. Mejiro McQueen crossed his arms in front of his chest: "...I don't want to play that anymore!"

"Wow...McQueen looks very unwilling."

The Emperor of the East China Sea sat back on his chair and complained: "It seems like his whole body is resisting."

"Of course!"

Mejiro McQueen nodded without hesitation: "...I don't want to be inexplicably said 'Ah, you seem to have gained weight again' again!"

"Obviously in order not to gain weight, I control my diet every day!"

"Why am I still gaining weight every day even though this is happening?!"

"Could he be possessed by something?"

"This kind of joke is not funny at all desuwa~!"

After hearing the joke told by the Emperor of the East China Sea, Mejiro McQueen put his hands on his chest and couldn't help but rub his arms: "...where did you hear this joke, Emperor?!"

"Huh...? Isn't it funny?"

The Emperor of the East China Sea showed a puzzled expression on his face: "...Obviously I think every joke told by the president is very funny."

I learned it from the 'Emperor', no wonder...

For a moment, the room was so quiet that you could hear everyone breathing clearly.

"Eh? What's wrong? Why didn't everyone suddenly stop talking?"

Looking at his teammates and trainers who suddenly fell silent, Emperor Donghai asked inexplicably: "Did I say something wrong?"

"Well...well...let's talk about today's training content first."

Okino Koji tried to change the subject stiffly.

"Let's talk about today's training content..."

However, his casual words made everyone in the room, except the golden ship who was still solving the Rubik's Cube, turn their heads and look at Okino Koji, who was still standing in front of the screen.

"Trainer, you..."

"I'm really sorry!"

Seeing that almost all the eyes of the horse girls in the room were on him, Okino Koji clasped his hands together: "...Because the classic triple crown is getting closer and closer, and she just won the Yayoi Award, so I thought Let’s see if we can find some exploitable flaws in her game videos.”

"I'm really sorry!"

"Since there is no specific training today, why not let us do independent training?"

Mejiro McQueen, who had no intention of blaming him, sighed, and then said to Okino Koji: "...Is this okay?"

"I'm really sorry!"

After hearing Mejiro McQueen say these words, Okino Koji raised his head and looked at the horse girls in the room who stood up and prepared to leave: "...There will never be a next time!"

"Then let's go to training first, okay?"

Yamato Akashi spoke, and after seeing Okino Koji nod, he followed the golden ship and others who had already opened the door and rushed out and left the room.

"Aha……"

After everyone left the room, Okino Koji looked at the door that was not closed, sighed and took out the lollipop with only one stick left in his mouth.

Although she was almost overtaken in the Yayoi Awards, what cannot be denied is that Aotake Fuga's on-the-spot performance is still flawless.

Whether it was the beginning or the end, she did everything a horse racing girl who uses the 'escape horse' strategy should do to perfection.

There is only more than a month left before the first event of the Classic Triple Crown. It is impossible to significantly improve the performance of the Emperor during this period.

Therefore, Okino Koji, who was thinking about whether he could find something from the video that could be used in the game, watched all thirteen games of Aotake Fuga during this period.

But the problem is, he did capture some of Qingzhu Fengya's little habits when running from the game video, but...

She is a 'fleeing horse'.

At the beginning of the race, you use up your energy to put distance between you and the horse behind you, and then use the advantage of distance to cross the line and win the championship.

Although the information he found was useful to a certain extent, it was not enough to pose a great threat to Qingzhu Fengya.

"...Isn't there any more useful information?"
