Horse Girl, Your Friend is Fighting Her Way Out of the Horse Racing Track

Then she saw… the famous general, Fury Waves?

The chestnut-haired girl was sitting alone on a roadside bench, looking somewhat dazed.

She had her head down, clutching something in her hand, and it was unclear what she was thinking.

The ears of the famous general Nutao twitched slightly from time to time, and her tail, which was draped over her leg, had been unconsciously tied into a small knot.

Poetry and wine recognized her.

The famous general Nutao was a roommate of Kongxing Shengong and had a good relationship with opera.

I've seen the other person train with Orihime before, maybe they know something.

She walked over and stopped in front of the famous general, Nutao.

The famous general Nu Tao first noticed someone approaching. She looked up in surprise and then saw Shi Yu Jiu.

She paused for a moment, then hurriedly stuffed what she was holding into her pocket, sat up straight, and her ears twitched twice.

What the other party folded up looked like a crumpled lucky charm, but Poetry and Wine paid no attention to it.

"Poetry, poetry and wine...?"

"Do you know where to find good operas?"

Without any unnecessary preamble, Poetry and Wine spoke directly and asked in a calm tone.

The famous general Nu Tao opened his mouth, as if he hadn't expected her to ask such a direct question.

She paused for a second, then realized what was happening, glanced to the side instinctively, and then looked away.

Her fingers unconsciously gripped the cuff of her school uniform. After hesitating for a moment, she spoke softly.

"Um, Good Opera Sang... she should be over there on the playground."

She paused, then, as if making a small decision, raised her head again and looked directly at the poetry and wine:

"Are you looking for Miss Aiori through poetry and wine?"

The famous general Nutao seemed to know the purpose of the poem and wine, and asked somewhat uncertainly.

Poetry and Wine glanced at her, then nodded in acknowledgment.

Upon hearing this, the renowned general Nu Tao's ears twitched slightly, and his gaze fell to the ground.

After thinking for a while, as if pushed by something, the famous general Nutao mustered his courage, raised his head again, and spoke hesitantly.

“Um… I know where Miss Aiori is.”

After saying that, she shut her mouth again, her expression showing obvious struggle.

The words had already reached the door, but then the famous general Nu Tao seemed to have something sealing his mouth, and after thinking for a long time, he still didn't know how to speak.

"--Hahaha!"

Just then.

A hearty laugh came straight from under the shade of the trees diagonally opposite, full of energy, and could be heard even though poetry and wine were half a road away.

Poetry and wine turned their heads and saw great opera striding towards them.

The other person's orange hair shimmered warmly in the sunlight, and their purple eyes were excessively bright.

Main character: Chapter 302 I understand

A good opera singer's aura is like a lamp that has been polished and lit; it's hard not to notice them.

She walked between the two of them, stopped, and first looked at the poetry and wine from head to toe with the eyes of someone appreciating a precious treasure.

Then the orange-haired girl tilted her head back and spoke in a solemn tone—

"If we are servants of the stars, we will go to the distant mountain peaks! We will go to the perilous heights and offer ourselves!"

Good opera has a powerful, resonant sound, each word distinct and clear, like someone reciting lines on stage.

A few students passing by glanced in this direction, then continued walking as if nothing had happened, their faces showing an expression of complete indifference.

Poetry and wine remained silent for a moment, then nodded thoughtfully.

'In the mountains?'

She went over it in her mind.

"Did Ai-Hime go to the wilderness for training?"

Good Opera smiled, as if she was very satisfied with the reaction, and nodded smugly.

"In short, that's it. To put it even more bluntly, it's cross-country running."

"Th-that...!"

The renowned general Nu Tao spoke hastily from the side, his ears trembling even more violently.

"I'm so sorry, I interrupted your conversation..."

She said "hug" three times in a row, and accidentally bit her tongue. Ming Jiang Nu Tao's face turned slightly red, but she didn't care about her embarrassment and continued to say what she wanted to say.

"But, but, now that you know the location, are you planning to go there right away...?"

She looked at the poetry and wine, her purple eyes filled with worry.

"Although, Miss Poetry and Wine may be more familiar with Miss Aiori."

"But Miss Ai-ori is very strict with herself and always undergoes very difficult training... This time should be no exception."

She paused for a moment, and her voice lowered slightly.

"So, that's... very dangerous... very dangerous, even for the horse girl."

The last half of the famous general Nu Tao's sentence was a little awkward. She seemed a little embarrassed, as if she was afraid of making a big fuss, but in the end she couldn't help but say it.

After saying what he wanted to say, the famous general Nu Tao pursed his lips and carefully lowered his ears slightly.

Good Opera turned to look at the famous general Nu Tao, without the slightest hint of mockery; her expression was unusually calm.

"It's alright, Nutao."

She paused for a moment, then looked up.

"Right now, the clock of fate is ringing incessantly in her mind. No one can stop it."

After saying that, she turned to poetry and wine and burst into laughter.

The renowned general Nu Tao stood to the side, and after listening, he quietly breathed a sigh of relief, the trembling in his ears gradually subsiding.

She lowered her head and said in a very soft voice:

"Please, Miss Poetry and Wine."

Then Good Opera tells Poetry and Wine the exact location of Orihime's love.

She abandoned her usual exaggerated tone, and her speech became remarkably crisp and clear.

"After leaving the academy, I ran along the mountain road that leads to the mountains for about fifty minutes at my usual training pace. After passing through an old cedar forest, there was a more open forest."

Good opera paused for a moment, then continued.

"Miss Aiori likes to run back and forth there."

Her tone was flat, as if she had known about it all along.

Poetry and wine went through this journey in their minds, wrote it down, and then nodded solemnly.

"How long has she been there?"

"If we start counting from noon..."

Good Opera looked up and glanced at the sky with a solemn expression.

"It's been about three hours."

Three hours?

Poetry and Wine didn't speak, but simply pulled up the straps of their backpacks and turned to walk out of the academy.

Before leaving, she solemnly bowed to the fine opera and the famous general Nu Tao.

"grateful."

After saying this, Poetry and Wine turned and left without hesitation.

After poetry and wine have faded away.

"that……"

The famous general Nu Tao looked at the opera beside him and spoke hesitantly in a soft voice.

"Miss Aiori... ever since the selection, she's been saying 'leave me alone'... um, is it really okay...?"

Her ears drooped, and her eyes held a deep worry.

Good Opera did not answer immediately, but simply turned its head and glanced at the famous general, Nu Tao.

Then she tilted her head back and spoke in a meaningful tone.

"Someone may lean against the door, some may knock on the door, and some may kick the door down."

She paused for a moment, then smiled.

"That's fine."

The famous general Nu Tao paused for two seconds, not quite understanding, but watching the figures of Shi Yu Jiu gradually disappear into the distance, he still quietly breathed a sigh of relief and murmured a sentence.

"Then we can only ask Miss Poetry and Wine for help."

Good opera, meanwhile, murmured in a deep, aria-like tone from the side.

“Oh, my Leporeno, I have guided Percival, with a fervent heart, to rescue you from the terrible abyss.”

"At this moment, I am like Gruneman, a righteous knight mentor with a noble heart..."

……

The roads outside the academy were particularly deserted on a winter afternoon.

With a low, grinding sound, the door hinges clicked, and Poetry and Wine stepped out of the academy's gates.

She stepped out to the side, stopped outside the door, took her backpack off her shoulder, unzipped it, and glanced inside.

A bottle of water, a few candies, a keychain, tissues, and a wallet.

The basics are all set up, but the poetry and wine feel like something crucial is missing.

What is it?

Poetry and Wine rummaged through the items, and after running their fingers around the bottom of the bag, they finally realized an extremely serious problem—

She didn't bring an umbrella today.

Poetry and Wine looked up, glancing at the sky above with some concern.

The sky was a uniform gray-white, with low, thick, and opaque clouds, making it hard to tell whether it was about to snow or just a cloudy day.

But neither possibility is a good omen.

Poetry and Wine stood at the doorway. The wind blew from across the road, a bit colder than inside the academy, carrying the scent of pine needles and damp earth, ruffling her stray hairs and making them stick to her face.

'It just so happens to be today.'

Poetry and Wine fiddled with his backpack with a bit of a headache.

She had bought an umbrella before when she was shopping, but today she was worried about Orihime, so she didn't have time to go back to the dormitory to get it.

There aren't even any towels.

She looked at her hands, put her backpack back on, zipped it up, and then walked down the road the opera had described.

'never mind.'

Poetry and Wine planned to resolve the matter quickly; as long as they could find Orihime as soon as possible, the risks would be much smaller.

But when it truly comes to the time when poetry and wine walk down that path...

She then discovered that the path described by fine opera was more difficult than poetry and wine had anticipated.
