There must be no problem with the youthful struggle story between me and the horse racing girl

Aoi nodded and didn't ask any more questions.However, he pointed at himself with a smile and said:

"In this case, I should be considered colleagues with Kazuomi. Then if you don't mind your review, you can let me help you?"

"Eh?"

"Don't look at me like this, I have already passed the trainer qualification certificate at the end of the year, right?" The girl puffed up her chest confidently, "Moreover, I am now also working as a trainer at Treson College. Of course, where I am It’s not the main campus, but the branch campus.”

I had heard Todo mention the branch of Tereson Academy before, but I didn't expect that a girl who looked about the same age as herself had actually become a very young trainer.

"Is Aoi already working this year?"

He obviously looks younger than himself——

"In my country, I skipped a grade in high school. Although I just celebrated my 19th birthday this year, I am already a trainer, right? It's because of the holiday that I came to my brother's shop to help."

So strong!

He Chen looked at the girl of similar age, with only this thought in his mind.

Ps:

There was a power outage last night, so I fell asleep while lying in bed. When I woke up at four o'clock, there was already a call, so I quickly started updating again.

As usual, I asked for recommendations and blade ing. The original three updates were agreed upon, and the remaining two updates will be returned during the day today.

Chapter 20 キコリTimepiece

After finishing cleaning, I took the clerk's uniform (actually an apron with the logo printed on it) from Aoi.

After putting it on, the two of them went downstairs together.By this time, Kiryuin had finished breakfast and cleared the table.

"Asama, I'll let Aoi take you to familiarize yourself with the products in the store this morning. I'll help you do things in the afternoon," Kiryuin still looked like he hadn't woken up. He walked to the single room in the backstage and said, "Kui, I'm going to adjust the competition shoes sent by your school yesterday. You will be responsible for this guy. If anything happens, come and call me. Do you understand?"

"Okay, brother! What do you want for lunch? Do you want me to order takeout?"

"Hmm...just any soba noodles from the supermarket? I don't have any requirements."

After leaving these words, Kiryuin directly opened the curtain and walked in.

"Really, you should also take in good nutrition for lunch!"

Aoi is obviously dissatisfied with his casual attitude, but Kazuomi also has a younger sister, and it can be felt from this that Aoi is also the type who particularly likes to stick to her older brother.

Siblings who have a very good relationship——

Kazuomi couldn't help but think about this, and he also thought about his sister who was far away in Seto. She didn't plan to go back this time, and her sister also lost her temper on the phone.I have to find a way to comfort him later.

"So, Hechen, do you have anything you want to ask?"

After all, there are no customers in the store now, so Aoi, as Kazuomi's teacher, is responsible for making him familiar with his work.

When it came to this, Kazuomi also nodded and said: "To be honest, I don't know anything about the things used in horse racing. I may need to trouble Aoi to spend more time teaching me."

"It's nothing. Ordinary people generally won't come to this kind of shop. It's much better to be able to speak frankly than to pretend to understand. Anyway, there are no customers at this time, so I'm here to teach you!"

It seemed that Aoi was very motivated, clenching her little fists and waving them in the air.And He Chen also imitated her example and followed suit.

In this way, seven days of life as a store clerk also began.

.

“First let’s start with competition boots!”

Like a little teacher, Aoi led Kazuomi to the exhibition area filled with various racing shoes.

"Kazuomi, do you know how we usually divide competitions into categories?"

"From the field point of view, it is grass and dirt. In terms of distance on the track, it should be short distance, mile, middle distance and long distance, right?"

"Yes, this is just a preliminary classification. If it is extended to racing boots, there are actually more subdivided categories, but we have basically divided them into four categories." As she said this, Aoi took a pair of racing boots directly from the display rack. Shoes, "For example, the one I'm holding now is a short-distance racing boot."

The relatively lightweight red running shoes have air holes on the upper that are densely and evenly distributed.

"Short-distance racing shoes are relatively light and highly extensible. In order to allow players to exert force as quickly as possible, we will use this kind of elastic sole fabric."

After speaking, Aoi folded the shoe in half like this, with the elastic upper directly facing the bottom to form a complete [-]-degree angle.

"The lightness and comfort of this upper make it a style that short track runners particularly like."

"Then there is this kind of shoe for middle distance races. The shoe quality is relatively hard. Considering that there are many big curves on the course, the two wings are actually thickened. This is also to make the shoe more durable. So that it can be fixed on it more firmly."

"For long-distance shoes, the materials are actually made of lightweight materials, but the bottom end is thickened with shock-absorbing material. In horse racing, especially long-distance races like 3200m, this kind of cushioning and stable running shoes It can be a big help to the players.”

“As for racing shoes for mud events, they actually tend to prefer this style.”

Aoi said, showing another model of running shoes made of leather in front of Kazuomi.

"For example, this kind of shoe has a relatively pointed toe, but the narrow-toe design makes the sole very hard and basically impossible to break." She said and demonstrated it herself, "But this kind of shoe is In order to have good traction on relatively harsh tracks, especially mud races, and to extend the edge of the midsole, this is a specialized shoe used when such tracks are relatively harsh.”

As soon as Aoi started talking, she started talking like a machine gun. While explaining, she also demonstrated various shoes, almost describing the characteristics, functions and adaptability of shoes for each game. All the advantages are explained in detail.

This not only surprised Kazuomi, but also made him admire the girl in front of him.

After Aoi finished speaking, she also noticed that Kazuomi was staring at her with an admiring look. When she came back to her senses, she picked her cheek in embarrassment and said, "Well, I can't help but get excited when I talk about this. ...Isn’t it a little weird..."

"No, it's not surprising at all! It's really amazing! Aoi! You are obviously about the same age as me, but you know so many things!"

What Aoi explained was like opening a door to a new world, and he was greatly shocked by the knowledge he learned.

I didn’t expect that players would be so knowledgeable when it comes to choosing shoes for competitions.

In general simulation competitions, everyone in school actually uses the same white running shoes. Before the official competition, many players will go to this place to buy running boots that suit them.

"It's not that exaggerated... Kazuomi, you're going too far. I'm not as powerful as you say... It's just because my family does this. I've been watching my parents do this kind of thing since I was a child, and I've been influenced by it. Naturally, I will remember it gradually.”

Although what she said was true, Aoi was still humbled.

I don’t have my own understanding, and I won’t combine what I know to explain it to Kazuomi in detail and in a simple way.

"But... Come to think of it, it seems like you two are the only two siblings in the store. Where are your parents?"

I heard from Aoi before that the Kiryuin store manager took over this store from his parents, but he hasn't seen them for so long.

"They started talking about opening a branch in Osaka last year, so they handed over the management of this old store to my brother. Although I have been working at the college, if it is weekends or holidays, I’ll also come over and help my brother take care of the shop.”

Although Aoi said it lightly, one can imagine how difficult it is for two young people to run such a large store.

These two are really awesome...

He Chen couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Ps:

I have a meeting today, so I will come back later to continue updating.

Chapter 21 Happy Friends

Kazuomi spent a whole morning by Aoi's side, and finally got a general understanding of the functions and prices of items such as maintenance tools, special shoe shoes, cleaners, etc. in the store.

According to what Aoi said, at least the academies in Tokyo and the Fuchu Racecourse have business cooperation with this place, and equipment maintenance and the like will basically be sent here.

Store manager Kiryu is doing these tasks at this time, and sales and other matters are basically left to other store employees.

Due to the Golden Week vacation, the store originally planned to have only Aoi help, but Kazuomi happened to be introduced by Tojo Hana. Out of trust in his old classmates, Kiryu also hired him without a word. And agreed to let He Chen live here temporarily.

After knowing this, he couldn't help but work hard.

In the morning, except for a few people who came to discuss orders and deliver parts, they came to the store.Aoi will go over to communicate or greet Kiryu in the room to do the handover.

During the rest of the time, Aoi basically introduced all the details of the supplies in the store to Kazuomi.

Although this knowledge is all about the equipment that is closely related to the players themselves, these things have given Kazuomi a new understanding of the types and responses to the competition.

The harvest of this morning can be said to be huge.

When the break time was approaching, He Chen took the initiative to run errands.

After all, as a newcomer, Aoi had hardly rested all morning to tutor him. Kiryu seemed to have been tinkering with something in the room, and rarely came out except for important matters.

Rather than letting herself stay in the store, it would be better to let Aoi stay in the store and wait. Even if there is any new matter, she can handle it better.As for going to the supermarket to buy bento or something like that, running errands can still be done.

When he came to a nearby convenience store, Hechen searched for a suitable lunch box among the dazzling array of frozen containers.

Manager Kiryu asked for soba noodles, and Aoi asked for spaghetti with tomato meat sauce. For lunch... I'll just make it simple.

Kazuo doesn't have anything in particular he wants to eat, as long as he can stomach it.

However, if a person happens to find a new flavor on the shelf that he has never tried before when he is undecided, he will have the urge to buy it.

Hot and sour tendon mayonnaise cheese bento...

The name of the bento that I accidentally saw made people think deeply.

The name is so confounding that it already calls into question what this extremely complex flavor is really like.

Although it is very suspicious, it only costs [-] yen, which makes people feel a little excited.

When I finally made up my mind to reach for the bento on the shelf, the other little hand that reached up happened to touch each other.

Kazuomi and another person happened to be interested in the same bento.

"I'm sorry, I'll leave this to you."

Hechen subconsciously retracted his hand. He felt that the soft little hands were like a girl's characteristic. It is not what an adult should do to grab things with children——

It's a big advance.

Um, how do you describe the scene at this moment?

The two of them stared at each other, Da Jin stepped up to reach the lunch box, while He Chen turned sideways and looked at her blankly.

The two of them seemed to be frozen, not expecting to meet each other here.

It took Hechen 0.5 seconds to react, and then he noticed Dajin's attire.

Different from what I saw in school in the past, this time she was wearing a high-collared white short T-shirt, light blue jeans, and a red apron with white edges, with a flower shop tattoo on the center. logo.

Although it's a bit unkind to say this, Da Jin now feels more like a little adult.Although he is small, he has a feigned maturity.

And after another 0.5 seconds, Hechen suddenly realized what Da Jin had told him before, that he would help in his mother's flower shop during this period——

But it was such a coincidence that we met in this place.

He Chen couldn't help but move his gaze downwards, and happened to see the toes that were raised from beginning to end...

"well"

Sensing the direction of He Chen's gaze, Da Jin came to his senses instantly.

A pair of dark eyebrows frowned directly, and without saying a word, he hit Hechen's calf like this again.

He Chen——Can’t get up again

"Why are you here?"

"Because...I also work nearby...so——"

When Dajin mentioned this matter, he immediately thought of everything that had happened before, his clumsy performance, and the fact that he had to be scolded by his mother for no reason because of his final failure.

For a moment, I felt an indescribable and nameless fire.

Although she couldn't tell the reason for this, she always felt inexplicably angry.

If you had known you were going to come here, why not choose them?

Under this situation, Da Jin felt a little awkward.

But she did blame Hechen wrongly, because Hechen didn't know that her work place was so close to Dajin and their flower shop until today.

Moreover, although he did ask Dajin for help, as a teacher asking for help from a student, not to mention the issue of face, Kazuo himself felt that doing so was a bit of a repayment.

"..."

Glancing at the bento in his hand, Dajin remained speechless for a moment.Then he looked at Kazuomi who was covering his calf and moaning softly.He turned around and snorted, put the things back on the shelf, and instead chose the curry chicken bento next to him.

Then he walked straight to the cashier, asked the dumbfounded cashier to help heat up the lunch box, and took a bottle of fresh milk from the shelf nearby.Without stopping for a moment, he took the bag and change and walked out without looking back.
