I'm in Teresin, dedicated to playing badly

Seeing that she agreed, Shinji Kitahara smiled and then continued to tidy his appearance.

After a while, Suguru Tsuna blinked as he looked at Kitahara Shinji, who had changed into a high-class formal suit.

"Trainer Kitahara, are you going out?"

"...Didn't I just say that?"

"No, you've been talking about me the whole time."

"That's something I forgot to mention."

Shinji Kitahara smiled somewhat awkwardly.

"I'm sorry, Ms. Junchuan, sometimes my thinking is a bit one-dimensional, so I often get so focused on one thing that I forget about others..."

"It's alright, Trainer Kitahara."

Junkawa Tezuna shook his head slightly, his eyes flickering.

"So, Trainer Kitahara, are you going out?"

"Yes, that's right. Necha has a match today and won't be back until the afternoon. Eclipse and I will both be there, so until then, I'll have to trouble you, Ms. Junchuan, to take care of the chairman and president."

"Yes, it's okay, I'll explain the situation to them."

Junkawa Tessuna nodded, then chatted with Kitahara Shinji for a few more minutes before watching him leave.

Only after watching his figure gradually disappear at the end of the road did she slowly withdraw her gaze and return to the house.

After returning to the house, Tsuna sat on the sofa and looked at the spare key that Shinji Kitahara had left in her hand so that she could take care of the chairman and president. Her gaze gradually changed.

I don’t know what I’m thinking.

Chapter 131: Buy One Get One Free

After leaving the dormitory, Shinji Kitahara went to the meeting place he had arranged with Nachi without any worries.

As for handing the dormitory key to Tsuna Suguru?

To be honest, if it were any other horse girl, Shinji Kitahara would have thought twice before handing over his dorm key, even if the other person wasn't one of his team's horse girls.

Otherwise, although there's a 80% chance we can get the key back in the end.

But whether there will be other things added, such as backups, backups, or backups, is hard to say.

Because of the many precedents of his predecessors who had failed in this area, Shinji Kitahara had made up his mind from the moment he joined the company.

Even if his female servants needed to enter his dormitory and asked to borrow his key, he would rather make the trip himself than give them the opportunity to use his key.

To his relief, however, he has not yet discovered that even one of the female horse-riding women has tried to take his dormitory key.

What does this mean? It means he maintained a perfect distance, and they had absolutely no interest in him!

As for Tsuna, there's even less to worry about.

As the undisputed green devil of all the Teresan horse girls and the savior of the trainers, Ms. Surukawa's safety is beyond question.

Forget about being wary of her; if he ever really messes up and gets kidnapped to a basement by some woman, he might have to rely on her to save his pelvic bone.

In this situation, let alone giving her the key out of necessity, even if Junkawa Tesuna said he needed a backup of his dorm key for his safety in case of emergency, he would readily agree.

Do you even know what the value of being a cuckold is?

So, despite handing over a copy of the dormitory key, Shinji Kitahara had no worries at all and arrived at the meeting point he had arranged with Nechika without any hesitation.

Then, shortly after he arrived at the agreed location, Necha's figure appeared from another corner.

We met, exchanged greetings, and then headed to the competition venue.

Because there are too many people in the team now, it's really inconvenient to take the whole team out to watch every match that a teammate is playing. So now, Shinji Kitahara only takes the horse girl and Eclipse who are going to play each time.

The other horse girls didn't have any objections to this.

On the one hand, there are too many people in the team now. If we really do that, everyone will stop training and just go out and watch their teammates play all day.

On the other hand, they gradually realized that if they continued to hold each other back, not only would there be more and more competitors, but the risk of outsiders stealing their food would also increase.

So, despite no communication, the horse girls under Shinji Kitahara's name still unanimously approved the decision, which at least allowed each rider to have a reasonable acceleration and also prevented them from having the opportunity to be hindered by others.

As for the scents of the chairman, Surugawa Tetsuya, and Rudolf on Kitahara Shinji, Nechika also detected them, but did not suspect anything.

Although Shinji Kitahara didn't go to the training ground yesterday, they did notice him at the cafeteria at noon.

Moreover, it was clear that he was discussing something important with Hisadou Kazuya, so I sensibly didn't go up and disturb him.

As for what happened afterward, they had all heard about his and Rudolf's symbolic visit to the chairman's office, so it's not surprising that they were somewhat influenced by it.

Logically speaking, after a night of evaporation, the smell should have completely dissipated, but why is there still such a noticeable residue?

It couldn't possibly have been that she spent the night with Mr. Kitahara, could it?

Necha thought so, but he didn't dwell on it for long.

After all, whether it's the chairman, Tsuna, or President Rudolf, they are not on the same level as these little pony girls.

Just like in school, a girl in love might worry that other girls in her class or school will steal her man, but you can't possibly worry that the principal and the dean of students will steal him from you, right?

These are not even the same thing, okay?

So, although I felt the lingering smell was a bit too strong.

But Neta didn't think much of it and quickly put it out of his mind, focusing on preparing for the next match.

Get off the bus, enter the venue, and go into the temporary activity room.

Similar to the East Sea Emperor match, because it was one of the few G3 level matches in the early stages, the opponents in this match in Necha were all of a very high level. They could be considered as the reserve for future G1 level rivals.

However, both Shinji Kitahara and Nachi remained remarkably calm in the face of this situation, showing no sign of tension whatsoever.

Shinji Kitahara's words are easy to understand. After all, he was recruited into the team simply because he wanted to clean up the mess he had left behind.

As for the rest, he just wanted to give up and didn't care about winning or losing.

As for Necha...

"Aren't you nervous?"

Seeing that Nessa showed no sign of nervousness, Kitahara Shinji was rather puzzled.

As for the Emperor of the East Sea, it's understandable that he's not nervous; after all, geniuses have the capital of self-confidence.

However, as for Naecha, although she ranked first in both the debut battle and the basic competition, she is somewhat insecure because she has been overshadowed by Sanji for many years.

Moreover, this was her first time participating in a high-reward tournament. Shinji Kitahara thought she might be a little nervous, perhaps afraid that the curse of the three moves would come true again, and even thought of giving her some pre-tournament psychological counseling.

But now it seems that, let alone giving her psychological counseling, he actually looks more nervous than she is.

When faced with his questions, Necha seemed relaxed and even joked with him.

"What's wrong? Does Mr. Kitahara want me to be nervous?"

"No, I was just asking. Don't be nervous... But you don't have to force yourself. If you are really nervous, it's okay to talk to me..."

"Well, I will."

Necha nodded, his tail swaying gently behind him.

To be honest, Necha knew in his heart that if he pretended to be nervous, he would probably get comfort from Kitahara Shinji.

But the problem is she doesn't want to do it.

It's not that she didn't want to get close to Shinji Kitahara, nor that she didn't cherish this opportunity to sneak away, or that she was shy like some other nobody.

She just didn't want to bother Kitahara Shinji with this kind of thing.

Similar to Special Week's view, Necha also believes that feelings should be two-way.

Unlike Special Week, she didn't try to get Shinji Kitahara to approach her by acting cute. Instead, she chose a more circuitous and difficult path.

That is companionship and help.

It's not hard to understand why she'd want to spend time with him; after all, it's normal for a racehorse girl to spend time with her trainer, and she's just finding various reasons to stay by his side as much as possible.

As for assistance, under normal circumstances, racehorse girls are usually taken care of by their trainers, and as students, they generally find it difficult to provide any help to their trainers.

Although many people say that the best result for a racehorse girl is the greatest help and reward for the trainer, Necha doesn't think so.

Because she felt that, ultimately, the victory on the field was the result of the two of them working together.

Just as a trainer has an obligation to be responsible for his horse, a horse also has an obligation to win victories for her trainer.

What Necha wanted was to provide him with all kinds of help beyond victory, including but not limited to cooperation in daily life, care in daily life, and to avoid causing him any trouble as much as possible.

Necha believes that, just as feelings are two-way, this kind of help should also be two-way. She cannot say that just because she likes Kitahara Shinji, she can use that as a reason to unilaterally demand his care.

She wanted something in return, something to give, something even something equal, so that they could become deeply involved in each other's lives, intertwining and supporting one another.

Then, in this situation, stand confidently in front of him and express your feelings.

So, even though she would snuggle up to Shinji Kitahara when she was genuinely scared, and knowing that this wouldn't cause him any trouble, she went along with it and settled down by his side.

But she wouldn't create trouble for no reason, like pretending to be nervous when she wasn't actually nervous to seek his comfort, or doing anything else.

As for why she wasn't nervous?

The reason is quite simple.

In the past, she might have felt fear before the match, worrying that the curse of the three moves would come true again, causing her to miss the first move forever.

But now, looking at Shinji Kitahara who is right beside her, the fear and tension in her heart no longer stirred up the slightest wave.

Then, in this strange tranquility, time slowly passed.

Soon, it was time for the contestants to enter the arena.

Nechika and Kitahara Shinji walked out of the activity room one after the other, and after walking for a while, they reached the intersection where they were supposed to part ways.

Just as Shinji Kitahara had said goodbye to Necha and was about to head to the trainers' designated stands, Necha's voice suddenly rang out behind him.

"Wait a moment, Mr. Kitahara."

He stopped and turned around, slightly puzzled.

Then Necha walked over, reached out, and began to carefully treat some small details on his body that he hadn't noticed before.

I straightened the collar, smoothed out the wrinkles, and checked some minor issues on the sleeves and back...

During the tidying process, Naecha's expression was focused and her movements were gentle. Moreover, because she had taken many opportunities to help him tidy up during the training camp, she was very skilled at it.

Faced with Nechika's subtle actions, Kitahara Shinji did not resist, nor did he feel that there was anything wrong with it.

After all, this is the first time that Necha has participated in a formal competition at the OP level or above, so it's normal that they don't want their trainers to be too sloppy and embarrass themselves.

After finishing, Nachi looked at Kitahara Shinji, who was largely the same as before but seemed much cleaner and more capable, and nodded in satisfaction.

Then she stretched out her little fist and gently punched Shinji Kitahara's chest, complaining softly.

"Mr. Kitahara, please pay a little more attention to your personal image..."

Hearing her words, Shinji Kitahara felt somewhat helpless.

"You know I've never been very good at this kind of thing..."

It wasn't that he was deliberately slacking off. After all, no matter how much he wanted to slack off, he couldn't bring shame to his female horses in their official races.

But perhaps he's used to not valuing himself, so even though he wants to dress up properly, he can't do it the same way he does for others; he can only manage to make do.

As for solar eclipses...

Although Eclipse had taken care of his life in the past, Eclipse's ability in this area was not exactly great.

At first it was a disaster, but now it's barely at the level of a normal person. After Necha and Xiaowan came, she simply let go and unilaterally enjoyed Kitahara Shinji's care for her.

Upon hearing his answer, Necha seemed to realize something and paused slightly.

After a moment of silence, accompanied by an increased swaying of its tail, a sound slightly different from usual rang out.

“Um, Mr. Kitahara.”

"what happened?"

She raised her head, mustered her courage, and looked directly into Shinji Kitahara's eyes.

"If I win this match, Mr. Kitahara, could you grant me one request? Consider it a reward."

Upon hearing this familiar statement, Shinji Kitahara subconsciously assumed that he would have to help Nai-cha take off her shoes by hand soon.
