Why was I assigned to be a horse girl?

“Oh, I understand!” Fei Tu Hu Po tapped her palm slightly, a knowing look on her face: “I’ve heard that many reputable universities, in order to reassure students, often report very high employment rates…”

"Yes, that's the idea. But while the employment rate of general universities can be 'finded' to increase, the percentage of students who find jobs can't be done that way. After all, there are only so many horse girls who get enrolled each year and participate in Uma Musume races. It's easy to find out with a little research."

Hearing this, Hitoko Amber basically understood what Kotobuki Toru meant. "So it's quite rare that you found a partner while you were in college?"

Kotobuki Toru nodded without hesitation, agreeing with Hitoko Amber's statement: "According to the statistics around me... since I entered school, there hasn't been a single upperclassman or classmate who found a racehorse girl while still in school... It seems there aren't any in Tokyo or Kyoto either, let alone anyone who won a G1-level race with a racehorse girl while still in school, and you broke all those zero records in one go."

Although cases like the Scarlet Amber are still extremely rare miracles, once something has happened once, it could happen again!

And those who have just graduated from high school all have dreams of poetry and distant places in their hearts, and each of them has a dream of becoming a chosen one—if Kotobuki Toru can get a racehorse girl as beautiful and capable as Hitoko Amber, then why can't he?

Many college students actually share this sentiment. For example, before graduation, they might think they are one in a million geniuses and would never take a job if the salary wasn't 20 yen!

But once they graduate and start looking for jobs, they'll find that a job paying 2 yen isn't impossible, and even jobs like food delivery or customer service are pretty good.

Thinking of this, Kotobuki patted Hitoko Amber's shoulder with a look of trust: "In short, your existence can give freshmen a lot of dreams and motivation. When you give a passionate speech, you will basically be the white moonlight of a freshman class... At least, we should let these college students have hope for the future while they are studying."

Fei Tu Hu Po's shoulders stiffened slightly. "Um, wait a minute... do you mean I should say something too?"

"Of course! You deserve half the credit for my thesis. I even put you first in the acknowledgments at the end of the thesis, so you should naturally come up on stage and give your opinion."

"Hey, with my intelligence and education, do I, a country bumpkin, even deserve to stand on stage and give my opinion?"

"Of course you're qualified. You can start thinking about your speech now, so you don't freeze up on stage."

"TouTou, please help me..."

"You'll have to do this yourself, like introducing yourself and stuff."

Kotobuki Toru immediately saw through Hitoko Amber's idea of ​​becoming a 'runaway horse'. Before Hitoko Amber could finish speaking, she had already rejected her. At the same time, she whispered to Hitoko Amber, "The most useful thing about this self-introduction isn't for the graduation defense or anything like that. It's for when you come to my house... I can't possibly write your self-introduction when you come to my house, can I? It'll be obvious at a glance."

Upon hearing this, Hitotsu Amber reacted as if her tail had been stepped on. Forgetting about holding Kotobuki Toru's hand and being close to him, she took a step to the side and exclaimed, "Eh... is there such a thing? I thought everyone knew me by now."

Seeing that Hitotsu Kohaku was obviously getting nervous, Kotobuki Toru felt sorry for her but also helpless: "In my family, only my dad and my sister know you, and even if everyone knows you as a racehorse girl, you can't really not introduce yourself, can you?"

A gurgling sound came from Fei Tu Hu Po's throat: "I... I just didn't expect to face it so soon... But since I'm meeting your family, shouldn't I learn the etiquette and stuff?"

Qin Chui shook his head: "That's not necessary..."

"Yes, I'll use it!"

But before Kotobuki Toru could finish speaking, Narcissus, who suddenly appeared out of nowhere, interrupted him, saying, "You don't have to be polite, but you can't be without it... To put it simply, Amber, you've never worn a formal dress or high heels. If you need to attend a party with Kotobuki Toru, even though Kotobuki Toru won't mind, you'll be outshone by the others."

A hint of anger flashed in Hitoko Amber's eyes. Although there was no point in arguing about this... she just didn't want to lose to someone in front of Kotobuki Toru.

Things other than running! I don't want to lose either.

"But Nana, what brings you here?"

Narcissus wore an ambiguous and wanton smile, looking just like a madam from the Edo period who had sent away a courtesan.

After circling around Hitotsu Amber several times, paying particular attention to her neck and legs, Narcissus finally spoke: "You two have caused such a stir, it's even made a fuss in Japan. I had to be here to witness it, and also to report to my boss. But you two have pretty good composure; even after all that, nothing happened..."

Hitoko Amber nodded proudly: "I successfully stopped a crime with my willpower... By the way, Nana, can you teach etiquette? I think it would be better if we knew some manners before visiting Kotobuki's house."

“Of course,” Narcissus assured him, patting his chest. “I’ll teach you these next few days! And I’ll even have a pair of matching high heels custom-made for you…”

"Huh? Why are you having high heels custom-made for me?"

Narcissus glanced at Qin Fukuto, then turned to look at Hitotsu Amber, a forced and insincere smile on his face. "Just consider it a whim, my designer addiction kicking in..."

Chapter 352 Training Methods to Improve Foot Grip – High Heels (Two-in-One)

Hitotsu Amber still can't fathom the depths of Narcissus's abilities—this mysterious person who calls himself a "madam and designer" has managed to gain a foothold in Kotobuki Toru's inner circle, clearly possessing more than just a few unique skills.

"Little Amber, you can rest assured!" Narcissus patted her chest with her rhinestone-encrusted manicure: "I wouldn't dare to boast about transforming you from a country bumpkin into a noble lady, but I'm absolutely confident in sculpting you into a woman of elegance!"

While Amber looked conflicted and hesitant, Narcissus made the decision immediately, pulling her towards the Great Hall of Treson. "Perfect timing. I need to talk to the American ponies about how to choose shoes. Most of these girls have big toes and their foot shapes are not good at all... so you can continue to be my foot model."

Fei Tu Hu Po was being dragged along, wringing her wrists as she tried to struggle: "No... After you made me a model last time, everyone has been hostile towards me. This time you want me to go on stage as a foot model. Isn't this blatantly stepping on everyone's face?"

As everyone knows, racehorses value and love their legs and feet even more than their looks. In fact, when racehorses compete in private, the proportion of their toe joints, the shape of their toenails, and the color of their manicures are all secret battlefields for determining the winner.

"Good things should be shown off, right? Your horse mother must have great balance, right? I'll get you a pair of sky-high heels with heels about ten centimeters high, you try them on..."

"Waaaaah, TouTou, help me!"

However, Kotobuki Toru chose to pretend he didn't know—because he also wanted to see it.

Subsequently, Hibiki Amber was once again dragged by Narcissus onto the stage of the American Teresa, where she looked embarrassed under the spotlight.

And it's unclear whether Narcissus did it intentionally or not... In order to show the difference between different foot shapes, she even deliberately brought in the chairman of the disciplinary committee of Trayvon Martin in the United States, Zhengyi.

"In Europe and America, most racehorse girls have Egyptian feet, with the length decreasing from the big toe to the little toe. Because of the strong regularity of this foot shape, they are more suitable for wearing round-toed shoes or casual open-toed shoes."

"But when wearing open-toed shoes, you should be careful not to wear socks, especially stockings, as it would be very embarrassing if your big toenail rubbed the socks through."

"Overseas, specifically Asian racehorse girls, tend to have more delicate legs compared to their American counterparts. Greek foot type is more common, and Hitotsu Amber's foot is an example of a Greek foot... The name comes from the same source as the Greek sculptures of beautiful women, hence it is considered the most beautiful foot type. The toes and index toe are the longest, and this proportion makes the toes appear very agile and also makes the foot look more slender."

"Feet like this are more suitable for wearing open-toe shoes and high heels. Tying straps around the instep and ankle will make them look very sexy."

The spotlight shone on the feet of the two top racehorse girls, and the contrast was obvious. Justice's legs were noticeably whiter, while Hitoko's legs, although slightly less white, had a peachy pinkish hue, and even the curl of her toes exuded a lazy and sexy charm.

The racehorse girls around them snapped photos, arguing quietly about which of the two top racehorse girls had the more beautiful legs.

Kotobuki Toru's gaze remained fixed on Hitokohaku. From his aesthetic point of view, Hitokohaku's delicate shape was indeed cuter. It looked quite beautiful, and it was soft and squishy to the touch... It even gave people a strange sense of appetite.

Of course, these are all discussions from an aesthetic perspective. From a trainer's professional point of view, Hibiki Amber's feet would have slightly poorer balance on soft ground. After all, when running, the thumb of the horse girl will be the first to touch the ground and bear the weight, while the index finger is actually more suitable for kicking. But in this day and age, there is no longer a need for horse girls to kick people on the battlefield...

"Bemon Championship".

Kotobuki Toru turned on his phone. Actually, two months ago, when Hitsuko had just won the Satsuki Prize, he and Hitsuko had already received invitations to competitions all over the world, including the American Triple Crown and the British Triple Crown. Although this time they came in a hurry and Kotobuki Toru did not bring the paper invitations, the fact that these competitions had invited Hitsuko remained unchanged. Registering meant participating, and the registration process was just a formality.

So it was only afternoon when the chat logs of the American Bride's Association for the Review of Horse Racing were leaked.

It's said that this all started because a group of staff members from the American Horse Girls Association created a chat group to discuss Hitoko Amber's eligibility for entry, and accidentally added a reporter from a newspaper to the group... and then the group of staff members from the Horse Girls Association started discussing in front of the reporter.

In just a few words, they had basically passed the application review for Hitotsu Amber. Their words actually conveyed their skepticism towards Hitotsu Amber, and they even sent memes such as [fist], [Stars and Stripes], and [flame]. They didn't say it explicitly, but it was clear that they wanted to express the idea that justice would eventually beat Hitotsu Amber.

American netizens felt that their own horse racing association was a shoddy operation and started making all sorts of memes about it.

Japanese netizens expressed their outrage, stating: "Even if Rudolph symbol loses, Hirukohaku won't lose! Even if Hirukohaku loses, the Great Shock won't lose! Even if the Great Shock loses…"

It's clear that Japanese netizens are also quite uncertain, but that's understandable. Ever since Rudolf's symbolic expedition failed miserably, these fans seem to have lost their confidence. Although there's a lot of support for the expedition, deep down they still harbor some feelings of inferiority.

Therefore, this is definitely a do-or-die battle for Hitsukoha. But if she can win the match, her status in the hearts of the Japanese people may be comparable to that of a god.

Currently, Hibiki Amber's biggest advantage is that she has mastered the flow state, while her biggest opponent, Justice, doesn't seem to have mastered it yet...

But simply having a flow state isn't enough to be safe. We need to let Hibiki Amber train her attributes and skills more during this time.

After the Japanese derby, Kotobuki Toru was convinced that Hitsukohaku was the kind of person who wasn't particularly bright, but was a pure martial arts genius...

She gets into the zone and learns skills extremely quickly; it would be a waste of her smooth brain if she weren't allowed to learn more skills.

In addition, we need to let Fei Tu Hu Po live on the sand for a longer period of time so that she can improve her adaptability to sandy terrain as much as possible.

While planning Hitokohaku's practice route, Kotobuki Toru didn't even bother to watch Hitokohaku on the stands.

"Transparent..."

"Transparent!"

Until a pair of small feet in crystal high heels wobbled up to Kotobuki Toru. The rounded toes, like budding cardamom, curled nervously. A light blue ribbon adorned with LOSSQ crystals tied around the ankles, making them look elegant and graceful. They were a rare work of art.

Then those pretty little feet flew up, and the soft toes almost kicked Qin Chuitou's face.

Kotobuki suddenly woke up with a start, "Huh?"

Looking up, she saw Fei Tu Hu Po with a displeased expression.

"Hmm what? I've been calling you for ages and you didn't even react!"

Standing on one leg, Hitoko looked annoyed. The high-heeled foot that had almost kicked Kotobuki through the nose was Hitoko's.

"Excuse me, I didn't hear you... your shoes?"

"Narcissus said he'd just give them to me as an apology for being your accomplice and colluding with you to hide things from me. He also said he'd make a few more pairs for me later..."

Hitotsu Amber tilted her head and briefly explained the origin of her shoes, then immediately changed her expression, staring at Kotobuki Toru with displeasure: "I've already come down from the stage, and you still haven't noticed me? You weren't going to see that crazy woman, Seigi, were you?"

Hitotsu Amber didn't complain much, then her figure, which was standing on one leg, swayed unsteadily. As the swaying increased, she finally lost her balance and fell down with a "plop," landing squarely on Kotobuki Toru's lap.

The soft, elastic feel made Qin Chuitou grimace, "There's a chair right next to me!"

“But I think it looks safer over here. If there’s a cushioning pad, I’d definitely choose the cushioning pad.” Hitotsu Amber grinned, bringing her nose close to Kotobuki Toru’s neck. Her delicate, small nose wrinkled slightly as she inhaled Kotobuki Toru’s scent like a puppy, then complained, “There’s a sweaty smell…”

"I flew all the way here, and I haven't showered for almost two days." Kotobuki Toru shoved Hitoko aside and tossed her onto the seat next to him. "And what's wrong with your balance? You can't even stand on one leg?"

Fei Tu Hu Po nodded, then lifted her foot to show Qin Chui Tou the high heel on her foot, which was about five centimeters high: "Of course, you don't know if you've never worn them... Wearing high heels is so uncomfortable. When you walk, you basically have to land on the balls of your feet, and it's very difficult to maintain your balance!"

But Kotobuki Toru's eyes suddenly lit up: "Right now you're just stomping on the ground with the balls of your feet?"

Fei Tu Hu Po nodded with a wronged look: "The balls of my feet and my toes... if I hadn't trained my foot strength with the noble lady before... I probably wouldn't be able to walk."

Qin Chuitou tapped his palm and revealed an expression of sudden realization: "That is indeed a solution."

Fei Tu Hu Po was completely confused: "Huh? What method? What are you talking about?"

Kotobuki looked at Hitoko's feet: "Professional racehorses that run on mud tracks basically land on their forefoot, digging their horseshoes into the ground to increase traction... So, you should wear high heels more often during this period, which might temporarily improve your adaptability to mud tracks!"

Upon hearing this, Fei Tu Hu Po's face darkened, and she growled like a puppy: "I've only been standing on stage for a dozen minutes, and I already feel like my legs are going to cramp up. My heart is also deeply traumatized, and you're suggesting I go out more often these days? Ya da, ya da, ya da..."

But while rejecting Kotobuki Toru's suggestion, Hitoko Amber's beautiful eyes darted around a few times, "Either change the training method! Or give me some psychological comfort?"

Kotobuki Toru stared at Hitoko Amber with admiration, without saying a word.

Fei Tu Hu Po shrank back, her little face turning slightly red: "Um, Tou Tou... what do you mean?"

"No, I'm both shocked and relieved." Kotobuki Toru gave Hitoko a thumbs up: "I feel like you've become much smarter since you came to Teresa, America... Right now, even though you're ready to accept it, you're still trying to negotiate terms."

Fei Tu Hu Po scratched her head: "Is it that obvious?"

"Wasn't your bargaining style too blunt?" Kotobuki Toru chuckled and replied, "Then if you agree, I'll take you out for a private banquet?"

Upon hearing Kotobuki Toru's words, Hisako stopped her fussing and blinked excitedly, "Eh? Is there a banquet to eat?"

During this time, in order to prevent herself from being deceived by the evil American capitalism, or being scammed by free shopping on the street, Fei Tu Hu Po has not even left the Teresa's house. She is also tired of eating hamburgers and fries.

As for seafood, Amber Hiruko didn't want to touch it at all...

If I could go out for a banquet to change things up, that would be a good option. Plus, with Kotobuki Toru by my side, having more people around would be a great help, and I probably wouldn't get ripped off in America.

However, Amber had a small question. She raised her hand and asked, "So, Tou Tou, I want to know... why do you have places to eat banquets? Isn't this America? I feel like you're not very popular here, so why would people invite you to meals?"

"I'm already being kind by not putting me in a sack and beating me up, but to invite me to dinner... I'm talking about company gatherings in the Americas, and dinners hosted by the business partners of the Kotobuki Foundation."

"Um, wasn't it said that we'd introduce ourselves after we got back?"

"There's no need for you to introduce yourself here. Everyone here is a business partner or something... Actually, it's similar to when you went out to deliver invitations on behalf of Central Treson last time, and then freeloaded off them. The only difference is that this time I'm the boss, and you're the follower... and nominally my female companion?"

"Oh wow, that sounds pretty good, deal! Also, what about a female companion? What do you mean by 'nominal female companion'?!"

There should be a third update later.

Chapter 353 How to Learn Using the Flow State? (Bounty 25)

After Narcissus's lecture on shoe and sock matching ended, Amber offered to see her off and also asked her for advice on things to keep in mind when attending a banquet.

Because Hitotsu Amber was still wobbly walking in high heels, the three of them moved very slowly.

It was precisely because of this composure that she truly felt the wonderful changes brought about by high heels.

When I walked next to Kotobuki Toru, I, at about 1.6 meters tall, looked like a little crimson bird, giving off a cute and adorable, petite vibe...

Now, wearing high heels, her height is almost 1.7 meters, her vision is suddenly open, and she doesn't even need to stand on tiptoe; she can easily wrap her arms around Qin Chuitou's neck with a slight raise of her arms.

Besides, when Fei Tu Hu Po walks on the street, she gets a lot more attention. It's hard to tell whether it's her clumsy gait that makes people laugh or her transformed image that is indeed more charming.

But she still excitedly nudged Kotobuki Toru beside her: "Toru, have you noticed? I'm getting so many stares now!"

Kotobuki nodded calmly: "I can tell. After all, being tall makes you more noticeable... or rather, you really do have a mature feel to you."
