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

The activity room fell silent for a moment again.

Have you decided where to go?

"I have excellent qualities," he said with concern.

"Hmm... Europe, but we haven't decided on a specific country yet."

Poetry and wine pondered as they answered.

"Europe?! And one person?!"

Twin Turbine was the first to jump up, its blue twin tails swaying in the air.

"That's not fair! Turbo is going too! Turbo is going to catch European pigeons! Turbo is going to race with foreign horse girls!"

"Where are you going? Stay put and don't cause any trouble."

With a light tap on Twin Turbo's head, she said irritably. Then, she turned to look at Poetry and Wine, her eyes filled with worry.

“Going abroad alone... I know you want to relax, but with your forgetful and careless nature, are you really sure you'll be okay? If you need any help, feel free to message me.”

"Um... Xiao Jiu!"

The poet, Osamu, clumsily rummaged through his pockets and finally pulled out a peace charm with frayed edges that looked like it had been crumpled from being held so tightly.

She blushed slightly, a little embarrassed, and carefully handed the poem and wine to him.

"This was something we all went to the shrine to pray for together..."

"Although I'm just an ordinary kid and may not have any special blessings, it's really effective! I hope Xiaojiu can stay safe and sound in a faraway foreign land."

Poetry and Wine held the amulet in their hands, looking at the scene before them, and a warm feeling belatedly spread through their bodies.

"……understood."

The black-haired girl turned her face slightly away, trying to hide the emotion in her expression.

"We just met and now we have to say goodbye..."

I'm sorry.

"But wait until the day I come back."

She gripped the amulet tightly in her hand and whispered.

"...Let's run together again."

"it is good."

Everyone smiled and agreed.

Poetry and Wine said nothing more; she waved her hand, turned, and walked out of the activity room.

As the door clicked shut behind him, Shi Yujiu's mood improved slightly.

She glanced down at the tamarimuku in her hand, which had become slightly warm from being gripped so tightly, and then carefully put it into her inner pocket.

Then, she quickened her pace and returned to her dormitory.

……

Pushing open the dormitory door, Shi Yujiu threw himself onto the soft bed, staring at the patterns on the ceiling.

Just now in the office in Minamisaka, and in the Canopus event room.

"I'm going to Europe, alone."

This statement, made with both poetry and wine, resonates deeply.

But after lying alone in her quiet dorm room for a while and thinking, she realized she needed to solve a practical problem first.

How exactly should I go to Europe?

Poetry and Wine sat up in bed, grabbed the notebook and pen from the table, and briefly reviewed his current resources.

A few minutes later, looking at the list on the paper, the black-haired girl fell into a deathly silence.

First, there was her passport, which she didn't have because she had absolutely no idea how to get one; the visa was about the same.

Then there's the plane ticket... She won't buy it...

As for the most important foreign language.

English proficiency is only enough to pass the school's final exams. When you actually go to a place where there are foreigners everywhere, you'll probably have to rely on babbling and gestures.

"..."

Poetry and Wine covered their faces in pain.

I didn't think things through earlier. I should have asked Nanban about these things.

However, Nanban is most likely dealing with something right now, so it's not a good idea to bother him.

If I were to sheepishly run back to Canopus's activity room right now to ask, "How do I buy a plane ticket?", then Necha and Twin Turbine, knowing that I don't even have a passport, would definitely clamor to come along and act as "babysitters."

Should we seek help from Rudolf's symbol?

The other person's face instantly flashed into my mind, along with the lame joke that followed—

"Going to England (Igirisu)? Is it because you're in a hurry (Igirisu-gi)?"

Poetry and Wine shuddered and decisively crossed that option off his mind.

Now, let's look at the entire Treson Academy.

Who fits the criteria of "extensive network of contacts", "abundant funds", "familiarity with overseas markets", and "absolutely would never laugh at himself"?

And what are the conditions for asking the other party for help?

P.S.: Diana's Red King, that's what I wanted to say.

Gaps: Chapter 382 - I don't know how to name it.

The image of chestnut-brown curly hair suddenly flashed into the mind of Poetry and Wine.

It's Maruzensky.

In terms of background, Maruzensky was a veteran at Tressen Academy.

Not only is she wealthy, but she also has genuine overseas blood.

According to rumors at the academy, Maru Zenki's family has deep roots in England, and she herself is from England. When she first debuted, this even prevented her from participating in many competitions.

Maruzensky must have been very familiar with the customs, social interactions, and complicated procedures in Europe.

"If Xiao Jiu has anything on her mind, she can come and talk to her sister anytime."

At least that's what they said.

Although going to her will most likely mean being treated like a kitten or puppy again...

But in order to start this journey smoothly, Poetry and Wine gritted their teeth and resignedly picked up their phones.

She searched through her contacts for a moment and successfully found Maruzensky's contact information. After hesitating for a while, she took a deep breath and dialed the number.

"Beep-beep-"

The phone was answered quickly after only two rings, and Maruzensky's energetic voice immediately came from the other end.

"Moshi moshi~! Oh my, isn't this our little wine who was just discharged from the hospital?"

"What? You've only been apart for a short while, and you already thought to call me? That's so 'Chobito' (a little touching)!"

Along with Maruzensky's voice, the faint roar of a sports car engine could also be heard on the other end of the phone.

Poetry and Wine held the phone a little further away, rubbed his ears which were a bit numb from the vibration, cleared his throat, and tried to make his voice sound less guilty.

"Um... Maruzen-nee."

"Oh?"

The engine noise on the other end of the receiver suddenly decreased, clearly indicating that Maruzensky had stepped on the brakes.

"What's wrong? Your voice sounds muffled. Are you feeling unwell? Or has little Rudolph done something naughty again?"

"Give me your location, and I'll come pick you up right now!"

"No, no!"

Fearing that the other party might actually drive up in a supercar with the engine roaring all the way, Shi and Jiu quickly spoke up to stop them.

She clutched the hem of her clothes, and after a fierce internal struggle, she finally spoke quickly in an awkward tone.

“I asked my trainer for a month’s leave… I want to go to Europe. But… I don’t have a passport, I don’t know how to get a visa, and I don’t know where to buy a plane ticket.”

"You said before... I could contact you if I needed anything."

There was a brief silence on the other end of the phone.

Just as Poetry and Wine thought the other party might not have heard them clearly, or was about to refuse because it was too troublesome, a soft laugh broke out from the receiver.

"Hehe... I see."

Maru Zenki's voice became much gentler.

"Going to Europe? It takes a lot of courage for you to go alone. However, traveling abroad alone does involve a lot of complicated procedures."

Can you help me?

Poetry and wine ask softly.

"Of course! Leave it to me. I can take care of everything, from the UK visa and plane tickets to where you'll stay."

Maruzensky agreed with unusual ease, but then her tone changed and became somewhat cunning.

"But, sister, I've done you such a big favor, how do you plan to repay me, Xiao Jiu?"

"...What do you want?"

Poetry and Wine narrowed their eyes warily.

"Hmm... let me think. I just managed to snag two tickets to a really 'Nauv' dance hall! This afternoon, come with me to pick out some outfits for our trip to Europe, and then you two can dance together, how about it?"

?! Dance?!

Poetry and Wine's face instantly darkened, but since the other party had helped them so much, they had no right to refuse.

"...Okay. What time this afternoon, and where shall we meet?"

"2 PM, at the main entrance of Tresson, see you there! Bye-bye~"

After hanging up the phone and hearing the busy tone, Shi Yujiu collapsed back onto the bed, feeling utterly exhausted.

……

As it turns out, racehorse girls are all monsters in terms of physical strength.

From the moment he got into the other person's sports car at 2 p.m., Shi Yujiu felt like he was going to die.

For the next seven hours, she was forced to go from one clothing store to another, dressed like a doll in various suits and dresses with exaggerated shoulder pads; then she was pulled into what looked like a high-class dance hall.

Haji was already a no-go on the winners' stage, and when he encountered this mysterious dance hall, he immediately revealed his true colors, becoming completely disoriented under Maruzensky's influence.

"Looks like you'll be missing out on 'aristocratic gatherings' when you go to Europe."

Maruzensky joked with a grin.

"But our little Jiu is naturally beautiful. Even if she can't dance or talk, many people will still send her invitations."

……

Maruzenski finally had his fill of fun around 10 p.m.

"crunch-"

The dormitory door was pushed open.

Poetry and Wine drifted unsteadily into the room. Too lazy to even turn on the light, she casually tossed the various shopping bags she was carrying onto the floor, then slammed into the soft bed with a thud.

"Aha……"

She buried her face in the pillow and let out a long sigh.

The physical exhaustion was overflowing, and there was even a ten percent or nine-tenths pain.

However, although the price was high, the gains were equally substantial.
