I'm in Teresin, dedicated to playing badly

But that's still outrageous.

According to her own explanation, she did a lot of research before the match and found that her strong opponents were all going to other G1-level events held at the same time, which allowed her to get a lucky break.

The problem is that even if you're looking for a bargain, finding one in G1 isn't so easy.

Moreover, although she herself said it was about finding a bargain, who knows what her definition of finding a bargain is?

Maybe she didn't actually pick up any scraps; she's just too strong, so it seems like she has no powerful enemies.

As for her purpose in running this G1 race, it's quite different from other female racers.

Other female horses run G1 mainly for victory, but she used to compete mainly for the prize money.

As the name suggests, a high-reward competition not only offers fame and honor but also substantial material rewards.

Although both are G1, the prize money can vary depending on the tournament's reputation and importance. In any case, it is an unimaginable figure for ordinary people.

According to Aili Digital's account, she didn't have much money left to promote her mascots at the time, and she thought that if she made a lot at once, she could have more free time to promote other mascots.

So she went over and ran, then won, and then used the money to buy a bunch of support items for the horse girls she had just annihilated. She even took advantage of the gap in front of the winner's stage to run over and get autographs from each of them.

If any other female horse were to do this, it would most likely be seen as an insult to the opponent, and in more serious cases, it could lead to backlash or even a suspension.

But when it comes to Aili Digital, this seems perfectly normal.

Even the female contestants in the same batch had prepared themselves mentally beforehand, and some even practiced their handwriting a few days in advance so that their signatures would look better.

In response, Shinji Kitahara could only say that she was truly remarkable.

After finishing their conversation, the two did not linger and quickly returned to the training ground.

When the others saw that the two of them had returned, they didn't say anything.

Perhaps if it were any other horse girl, even just a random one, they probably wouldn't feel so at ease.

But the problem is, that's Aili Digital!

She was so reassuring that even Shinji Kitahara considered hiring her as his partner. Moreover, she was the only horse girl in the entire Teresan region who could freely switch teams without any restrictions, making her incredibly valuable.

—It wasn't until after their midday training, while they were eating together in the cafeteria, that they heard Alice Digital's new way of addressing Shinji Kitahara.

"Kitahara-senpai, do you have any recommended books about trainer knowledge?"

Although she didn't succeed in becoming his apprentice, because Shinji Kitahara had promised to provide her with guidance and assistance, Ali Digital felt that it was a bit disrespectful to keep calling him Trainer Kitahara. After thinking about it, she decided to call him Senpai (senpai).

In her mind, she was already a trainer in training, so calling Kitahara Shinji "senpai" was the most appropriate way to address him, as it was both appropriate for her status and showed respect.

As for Shinji Kitahara, he wasn't particularly sensitive to the issue of titles. Although he felt it was a bit strange to be called "senpai" by Alice Digital, he accepted it after seeing her insistence and failing to refute it a few times—it's just a title, after all.

But it seems that others don't think so.

Upon hearing the new name of Aili Digital, people reacted in various ways.

Eclipse remained expressionless, eating as usual.

The Emperor of the East Sea paused slightly, and Alice narrowed her eyes.

Xiao Li Mao ate her rice a little faster than usual, and Zhou's hair seemed to be growing slightly.

Meanwhile, Hibiki, feeling down, didn't pay much attention to her surroundings. She just silently watched Special Zhou and Silent Suzuka across from her, their eyes gradually dimming.

An eerie atmosphere began to spread, and even the horse girls around them noticed something was wrong and carefully avoided them.

Even Shinji Kitahara realized something in the end, and his expression gradually changed.

Wait a minute, he seemed to remember that in their previous conversation, Ali Digital had mentioned that she had a lot of practical experience as a trainer, but she lacked systematic education, so she was still lacking in theoretical knowledge.

But in his team, there seems to be someone who is the exact opposite of her—perfect in theory but terrible in practice.

If these two can be combined slightly, wouldn't that be equivalent to having an extra support trainer in his team out of thin air?

And they're at a pretty high level.

Furthermore, given Alice's personality, she would most likely not refuse such an opportunity to openly study other racehorse girls and collect data.

Although he was confident that as long as he continued training according to his plan, the female horses in his team would not become particularly strong, but at least they would be able to perform to their full potential.

The problem is that plans are static, but people are dynamic. No matter how perfect a plan is, unexpected things will inevitably happen during its execution.

At this point, trainers need to step in and adjust and replan the original plan based on the situation. This is one of the daily tasks of most trainers.

The problem is that this approach doesn't work for Shinji Kitahara, and it's not just because of giving up.

In fact, Shinji Kitahara doesn't usually look at his horse girls during training. The reasons for their laziness and those mentioned before are just minor details. The main reason is that he simply can't stand watching them.

Well, how should I put it.

Watching them train was like an Italian watching a pineapple pizza, a Japanese watching macaroni and sushi, or a Chinese watching strawberry mapo tofu—it was incredibly uncomfortable for him.

It's not that they weren't serious, hardworking, or didn't follow Shinji Kitahara's plans.

On the contrary, they excelled in everything they did, from hard work and dedication to execution of plans, even surpassing other female horse riders.

The problem is that Shinji Kitahara's vision is a bit too high.

Just as people with good hearing feel more uncomfortable when they hear loud noises than others, Shinji Kitahara's exceptional observational skills, while allowing him to easily see through the problems with the horse girl, also brought him a huge mental burden.

From large-scale postures and movements to the control of every single muscle, humans are not machines and cannot perfectly execute every instruction; there will always be various tiny errors.

Let alone ordinary people, even legendary trainers wouldn't care about such a tiny error, and could even say they wouldn't notice it at all. After all, this is just a normal physiological phenomenon of the human body, and it can't really be considered an error in essence.

The problem is, Shinji Kitahara's eyes are very useful.

Errors that others wouldn't even notice are, to him, not so much obvious, but downright glaringly obvious.

Moreover, once he actively looks at it, that feeling of error and incongruity will directly enter his mind, much like hearing a cat's claws scratching glass.

Shinji Kitahara was certain that he did not have obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), because if he did, he would never have been able to live a normal life under such torment every day; at the very least, he would have been driven insane.

It's not that he's incapable of correcting these things; at least he can significantly reduce them.

The problem is that if he really did that, coupled with the plans and running strategies he designed for them, they could basically lock in an undefeated streak as long as they didn't run into teammates.

If the East Sea Emperor is undefeated, her talent can be used to explain the past, and the blame can be shifted to the Symbol family. In fact, the two have nothing to do with each other, and the probability of her being undefeated is very low, so Kitahara Shinji doesn't need to worry too much.

But if the other horse girls in the team also start losing, then he's truly doomed.

Not to mention being targeted by Ma Niang, those big families might even have thoughts like "If I can't have it, no one else can either," and then take all sorts of measures against him.

Therefore, he usually doesn't keep an eye on the training, for fear that he might lose his temper and rush out to drill them.

However, if you don't keep an eye on things, training will inevitably be disrupted, and there may even be accidents or other problems.

If we could get Aili Digital and Aili Suzuko to help keep watch, we could not only reduce the probability of accidents and improve training effectiveness, but also get rid of some tedious little problems to them, further reducing our workload.

Moreover, this is only the effect within the training ground. Outside the training ground, if his female horses achieve amazing results, he can directly shift the blame and say that it has nothing to do with him and that it is all thanks to the two of them.

Doing this will not only help Aili Digital build its reputation, but also reduce the probability of being noticed. Furthermore, by reducing contact, it can further reduce the probability of gaining favor with the team's female characters.

If this can be done, it would be killing six birds with one stone, turning a bicycle into a rocket, wouldn't it?

As for whether this will improve Aili Digital's image?

Of course! He's not stupid; how could he not see that?

If it were anyone else, Shinji Kitahara would never dare to do such a thing, but with Alien Digital...

That's that Aili Digital!

A rollover? No way! He simply doesn't believe that a mudslide could cause any problems!

After clarifying his thoughts, Shinji Kitahara smiled, and even his gaze towards Ali Digital brightened.

No, it's not accurate to say he's looking at Aili Digital; he's looking at his own future.

Looking past the tips of her pink hair, Shinji Kitahara seemed to see a bright future beckoning him, and a clear path lay ahead, causing him to smile involuntarily.

Completely unaware of the storm gathering around them.

Chapter 54: Even Willfulness Should Have Limits

Time continues to pass.

After dinner, Shinji Kitahara approached Alice Digital and Alice Hayako and shared his thoughts with them.

The former readily agreed, his eyes even shining.

As for the latter, he originally wanted to agree directly, but just as he was about to speak, his eyebrows suddenly twitched.

“I have no objection to supplementary training, but... I also have some conditions.”

"No way we're talking about drug trials," Shinji Kitahara predicted in advance.

"whispering sound."

Alice clicked her tongue and then spoke.

"Then can you treat me to a meal? I get tired of eating at the cafeteria all the time, and my appetite isn't as exaggerated as theirs. This request isn't unreasonable, is it?"

To be fair, Shinji Kitahara didn't think the request was excessive.

The problem is that they are now a team. If he invites Alice to dinner alone, even if he has a legitimate reason, it still feels inappropriate, and others might overthink it.

However, it seemed that Alice had anticipated his reaction from the beginning, and after seeing that he did not agree, she continued to speak.

"Don't worry, I don't ask for much. Just call me when you go out on weekends and during Eclipse. You'll definitely need to eat out anyway, and I can go out to buy some materials. Plus, with Eclipse around, we'll be safe."

Alice's demands were already low, and now they're even lower, and Shinji Kitahara can't detect any problems with them.

After all, she had just been attacked when she went out last weekend, so it's normal that she didn't dare to go out alone. Eating was probably just an excuse; her main purpose was to get close to Eclipse in case something unexpected happened on the way.

Shinji Kitahara thought so, so he agreed to her request—on the condition that Eclipse search her before she went out each time to make sure she wasn't carrying any strange drugs.

Alice readily agreed, even saying that if he was still worried, he could search her body himself without any problem.

Then he was flatly rejected by Shinji Kitahara.

Search her body yourself? Are you kidding me?

It's likely that the moment he placed his hand on her, she would smile and pull out a video camera, then say, "Guinea Pig, you don't want this video to be posted online, do you?" and use it as leverage to blackmail him into testing the drug.

After agreeing to Alice's request, Shinji Kitahara looked at Alice Digital.

"AILi Digital, is there anything you need?"

After all, the plan was for the two of them to help with the training together. Since they had agreed to Alice's request, they naturally couldn't favor one over the other, and of course, they also had to consider Alice Digital's feelings.

"Ah I......"

Alice Digital hadn't really thought about asking for any compensation, but seeing that Alice Suko had already asked for it, it wouldn't be right for her not to make any demands. After agonizing for a long time, she finally came up with a decent compensation.

"In the future, if you have time, Kitahara-senpai, could you tell me more about your past with Eclipse-san? I won't tell anyone."

"As long as you don't find it boring, it's fine."

Shinji Kitahara shrugged and agreed to her request.

After the matter was settled, Aili Digital pulled Aili Suzi aside to discuss and prepare for the follow-up matters.

As for Shinji Kitahara, after the two of them left, he took out his phone, ready to continue slacking off.

But he had barely taken out his phone, and hadn't even unlocked the screen, when he noticed another figure sitting opposite him.

"Trainer~"

The Emperor of the East Sea rested his chin on his hands and just stared at him.

"What is it now, Your Majesty?" He raised his head helplessly.

"Are cell phones really that fun?"

She wrinkled her nose, clearly trying to make an angry expression, but it looked inexplicably cute.

"Can't you put down your phone and spend more time chatting with us and taking care of us? You're a trainer, you know."

"No."

Shinji Kitahara resolutely refused.

“In my company, trainers are only in charge of training, and they don’t care about anything else—and there’s no requirement in the employee handbook for trainers to chat with you.”

"But isn't maintaining the emotions of the horse girl also one of the trainer's responsibilities?"

"But aren't you all in pretty good spirits?"

Shinji Kitahara looked around and confirmed that, apart from a certain grass lady who was quietly growing grass in the corner, the other horse girls all seemed to be in a good mood.
