A cute girl’s heart is capable of anything

From the initial complacency and vowing to save this college, to the later doubts.

If it weren't for Qingzhu Fengya, whether he could support it until the end of the year before last was a big question.

Thinking of this, Saito Asuka's eyes became moist.

hateful……

Saito Asuka turned his back and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with the back of his hand.

...Why are you crying?

It's hard to come here today.

It was obviously a day that I should be happy about, so why did I suddenly want to cry?

Damn it...I should be smiling at this moment.

"...Trainer, we haven't accomplished our final goal yet?"

Saito Asuka, who wanted to control his out-of-control emotions, suddenly heard Qingzhu Fengya behind him say such words to him.

"The journey of 'saving the world' is not over yet. If you are so moved that you want to cry now, wouldn't it be a little too early?"

No matter what time, Qingzhu Fengya, who always had a sweet smile on his face, turned sideways and looked at the lonely Himeji Teresin Academy.

"...We will definitely succeed~?"

"……um. Thank you."

Saito Asuka, who looked at Qingzhu Fengya, nodded: "Really... thank you very much."

"Hmph, if you want to thank me now, it's still too early~?"

Qingzhu Fengya stretched out a finger and put it in front of her mouth: "If you really want to thank me... just agree to one more request of mine after this 'salvation' journey is over."

"Okay, I promise you."

Saito Asuka nodded without hesitation and agreed.

"Oh? Why don't you ask me what I want you to promise me?"

Qingzhu Fengya asked in surprise after hearing Saito Asuka agree without hesitation.

"I believe you will not make any excessive demands from me."

"So trainer, do you believe in me so much?"

Qingzhu Fengya blinked.

"After all, you are the first horse girl I am responsible for."

Saito Asuka replied with a smile: "...Okay, the time for chatting is over, let's start today's training."

"Oops? So you still remember the trainer?"

Qingzhu Fengya pretended to be surprised and put her fingertips on her lower lip: "I thought you had forgotten, trainer."

"Don't worry, I won't forget."

Saito Asuka replied with a smile: "Okay, now you still have 5 minutes to complete the warm-up exercise."

"Today's training is about to begin, are you ready?"

"It's already ready!"

Qingzhu Fengya stuck out her tongue with a smile, and then began to do preparatory exercises.

……

"Qingzhu Fengya, please wait a moment."

Qingzhu Fengya had just finished a lap when she was stopped by Saito Asuka who was standing at the starting line.

He looked at the timer he was holding tightly in his hand and frowned.

"...Fengya, were you injured while running for the Yayoi Prize?"

"Injuried?"

Qingzhu Fengya, who was stopped, ran forward two steps before stopping.

She looked at Saito Asuka who was approaching her step by step, and asked doubtfully: "...Trainer, why do you think so?"

"There's something wrong with your running form today."

Saito Asuka frowned and looked at the black-haired horse girl standing in front of him: "And the speed has also dropped significantly."

"Fengya, tell me honestly, were you injured when you were running for the Yayoi Prize?"

Anxious Saito Asuka walked up to Qingzhu Fengya in three steps and asked nervously: "Where does it hurt? Is there any discomfort? How about I drive you to the hospital to check your body now?"

"It's okay~?"

Qingzhu Fengya shook his head: "It's just that I still feel a little tired now."

"...You really didn't lie to me?"

Saito Asuka looked at the black-haired horse girl in front of him with suspicion.

"Really, look."

Qingzhu Fengya opened her arms and spun around in circles a few times: "...Is there anything wrong with me?"

"..."

Saito Asuka stared at Qingzhu Fengya for a long time.

"...If you feel tired, just do this for training this afternoon."

In the end, Saito Asuka, who didn't see any clues, thought about it and chose to terminate this afternoon's training.

"Wait, I can continue today's training..."

"no--!"

Before Qingzhu Fengya could finish speaking, Saito Asuka interrupted her.

"I am your trainer, be obedient!"

"Since you said so, trainer... then okay~?"

Aotake Fuga, who noticed Saito Asuka's resolute attitude, stood up on tiptoes and patted his shoulder with a smile.

"Then...I will use the free time this afternoon to go out and play, right?"

"That's okay, trainer?"

Please save this school that is about to be abandoned! : Chapter 133: Look who this is?

"Even though I said that to the trainer, after I left school, I didn't know where to go."

Standing at the entrance of Himeji Teresin Academy, Aotake Fuga was a little worried.

She looked at the crowded streets, her slender fingers resting on her chin, lost in thought.

How about... go back to the dormitory and stay until school is over?

Qingzhu Fengya turned back and glanced at the electronic retractable door that had been closed.

……just forget it.

Looking at Himeji Treson who was quiet behind him as if there was no one around, the black-haired horse girl took a step forward.

Staying in a dormitory where I am the only student will only infinitely amplify the loneliness in my heart.

Instead of staying in school, why not wander around in the streets.

...Maybe we will encounter something interesting because of this.

With this thought, Qingzhu Fengya was like a fish returning to the ocean, quickly blending into the crowd and disappearing.

……

"Light Diamond! Light Diamond, here it is!"

The black-haired pony girl standing at the door of the game hall looked at the brown-haired pony girl who was looking around for her not far away. She raised her hands high above her head and waved them left and right like a flag: "Come here quickly. —!"

"Wait...wait a minute——!"

Hearing the voice of her good friend, the brown-haired pony girl hurried towards her.

After running to her side, she leaned on her knees and took a few breaths. Then she raised her head and complained to her friend who had been waiting for her in front of the game hall: "...Really, wait for me. —!"

"Obviously it was Xiaobei who invited me out to play together, but you should wait for me!"

"What? It's obviously Hikaru, you're running too slow!"

Bei Xuanju stretched out his hand and pointed at the claw machine placed in the corner of the game room.

"The game arcade we came to today... has Miss Emperor's limited edition dolls!"

When saying this, Bei Xuanju, who had been impatient for a long time, repeated excitedly: "That is Miss Emperor's limited edition doll!"

"I want to catch Miss Emperor's limited-edition doll, ask her to sign the doll after she wins the undefeated triple crown, and then keep it!"

When mentioning the Emperor of the East China Sea, Bei Xuanju's eyes were like two stars: "...When I grow up, I want to be a sparkling horse racing girl like Miss Emperor!"

"As for the sparkling horse girl, isn't there another one?"

Hearing Northern Xuanju say these words was like witnessing the moment when Donghai Emperor won the championship. Satomi Kozuan couldn't help but said: "Like Miss Donghai Emperor, she still maintains an 'undefeated' record so far. I will compete with her." She stood together with Miss Qingzhu Fengya in the classic triple crown."

"But...but Miss Emperor is the strongest!"

Bei Xuanju clenched his hands in front of his chest and retorted anxiously and seriously: "Miss Emperor, she will definitely become the next undefeated Triple Crown horse racing lady!"

"...Xiao Bei, you really like Miss Emperor."

Satomi Kozuan looked in front of him, his big, watery eyes staring closely at his friend. Satomi Kozuan took the initiative to reach out and grabbed the palm of Bei Xuanju's chest.

"Xiao Bei, don't you want to catch Miss Emperor's limited-edition doll today? If you stay here any longer, the last limited-edition doll will be taken away by someone else, right?"

"what?!"

Bei Xuanju had a panicked expression on his face when he heard his brown-haired friend in front of him say this to him.

She held the hand held by Satomi Mitsui with her backhand, turned around and hurried towards the claw machine.

Bei Xuanju, who walked to the first claw machine, grabbed the edge of the console and stood on tiptoes to look at the dolls in the machine.

After glancing around, the northern black horse finally focused on the East China Sea Emperor doll pressing a silver-haired horse girl and breathed a sigh of relief.

"I found it... Light Diamond, please wait for me here, I'll go change some game coins."

Northern Genkoma, who couldn't wait to get a doll based on the idol he admired, said this to Satomi Kozuan who was standing behind him, and left in a hurry.

"Xiao Bei, wait..."

Satomi Mitsui, who stretched out his hand to say something, looked at the back of his friend who hurriedly left, and could only close his lips, helplessly letting the second half of the words he had not yet spoken melt into his mouth like snowflakes.

...Obviously it was you who invited me out to play today.

Satomi sighed, then turned to look at the stuffed dolls lying around in the claw machine.

Really... Are Miss Emperor's limited edition dolls really that good?

With this thought in mind, Satomi glanced at the stuffed toy in the claw machine. After a brief glance, he looked away and drifted to the side.

Then, her eyes were attracted by a certain doll in the claw machine.

There is actually a plush doll based on Miss Qingzhu Fengya wearing the finals uniform...?

There was a surprised expression on Satomi Hikari's face.

...Obviously she wore it for the first time in front of everyone at the Yayoi Awards a few days ago.

Is there a doll of her in her final uniform so soon?

Staring at the Ma Niang doll lying on the top of the doll, Satomi felt a little itchy.

Wait until Xiaobei comes back and ask her for some game coins, right?

Satomi Kozuan thought so, but hesitated a little.

...What Xiaobei wants to catch is the limited edition doll of Miss Emperor, and what I want to catch is the doll of Miss Qingzhu Fengya, who will compete with Miss Donghai Emperor for the title of 'Undefeated Triple Crown Horse Racing Lady' in the classic Triple Crown event.

No, no, the friendship between Xiaobei and I will not be ruined by this little thing!
