Chapter 121
A brutal battlefield.
Even with their heads raised, the losers could not quell the surging in their stomachs; the infirmary's doctors and nurses stabilized them with spells and special medicines while helping them to the infirmary for a final examination.
They also had to face their supporting friends with a face full of regret.
Linglu classmate, Xiao Cao, sorry, I lost.
Wu…… Suzi classmate, sorry, I let you down.
Diwang classmate, please don't look at me with that pitying gaze!
"Burp!"
"Winner! Xiao Limi!"
"From before that final finish line! Xiao Limi athlete has maintained the lead! So the champion of the Central Tresen Big Eater final is——the monster of ash-colored hair! Xiao Limi athlete!"
"Not a bad match, let's do it again next time, Special Week."
With a belly bulging as if eight months pregnant, the ash-colored horse girl is extremely calm; doctors who looked at her all said she was very healthy.
"Next I announce! This round's victory prize! A gourmet trip sponsored by multiple parties plus a bundled Super Dream, and also Tresen New Horse Street sweet discount voucher, to be obtained by Xiao Limi classmate——uh? Rudolf?" "Qianming, what are you doing? ——Right, trouble you, doctor."
"Huangjin Chuan, you teamed up with Qianming to steal the student council seal—the act has been exposed; come with me to the student council for a trip."
「Wow! The gas tank also appeared, where did Shirohito Narita come from again! Trainer! Hold the wind tight, pull! Swoosh swoosh!
」
"I was there from the start, coming together with Cao Shangfei." "Don't even think of escaping! Qingzhu, stop him for me!"
"You can't escape, huh, Trainer Jinnaitai? Even accompanying the horse girls in their mischief comes with a cost, and moreover you look like you're even enjoying it." "How could that be! Miss Shunchuan, I'm obviously being blackmailed by Huangjin Chuan! Moreover, I've already told the cafeteria lady about this, and she also happens to want to challenge the peak of efficiency——"
——That's all the so-called chaos amounts to.
After the Big Eater final ended, the spectators began to scatter like birds and beasts, but there were also late-arriving pursuers who caused a bit of new chaos at the scene.
Incidentally, it brought a reversal—just as Aomo had initially guessed, this match really wasn't proper enough.
But he hadn't expected Qianming to team up with Huangjin Chuan to steal the seal; right now, wherever the pursuers and fugitives from the college and high school departments passed, chickens flew and dogs jumped, so Aomo turned back again and sighed at the empty seats.
Suzi had just come back briefly, but the follow-up of Special Week being sent to the infirmary intrigued her, so she went after them again, and incidentally she brought along the lunchbox that Aomo had retrieved.
Although Miura Bourbon initially behaved and ate, in the end she also accompanied the other overeating contestant to the infirmary; after eating and watching the show to the end, only Chazuo remained by her side.
However, since Xiao Limi seemed to be in excellent condition and didn't need to see a doctor, the cheering Yuzao Juji also didn't rush to leave.
Upon hearing Aomo's call from afar, she twitched her ears and looked over; running up, he asked her a question, and she really hadn't noticed the matter of eating.
"Thanks! Trainer! We were still thinking that going out to eat would be pretty pricey, so we thought we might as well buy a bread at the convenience store to settle it."
Even though I told her my name, the petite girl still called him that; it didn't feel unfamiliar, but there was still something subtle about it.
"Not eating enough harms training," At that moment, Aomo's mind sprang the phrase 'not enough food, not enough strength,' and he still slightly rephrased his opening, "Besides, you're still in your growing years."
"You also can't compare me and Xiao Limi; my appetite isn't that big to begin with." Yuzao Juji said, waving at the distant Xiao Limi.
The latter was receiving a stern talk from the trainer with a blank face; noticing the wave over here, he also raised his hand in response, which also caused that trainer to turn his head to look, and then, amidst Aomo's smiling nod, he suddenly turned his head back again.
"?"
In that instant, one could see the other's fear from the observation; Aomo briefly recalled the information on the trainer named Kitahara Takemi, who, although having a background 'from the localities to the central' that easily leads to inferiority and timidity, that was merely speculation; Kitahara Takemi's information never showed any obvious psychological defect.
Moreover, given the nature of Jidong people, there's actually no reason for a senior who joined a year earlier to fear a junior.
"How come I feel that colleague is rather afraid of me?" He directly asked the Yuzao Juji still eating across from him; as a good friend, he should also have some understanding of that person's trainer.
But the problem seems not to lie with the person opposite.
"Trainer, do you have no self-awareness at all?" The questioned Yuzao Juji lifted her head, a speechless expression, her double ears adorned with red ear covers shaking as well, "The Bourbon big sis and the trainer recognized by Suzi are rumored among everyone to be a demon summoned by Suzi using black magic, and moreover……"
Yuzao Juji glanced at the nearby Chazuo quietly playing with her phone, then turned her head back, her hand forming a knife-like chop—a common move in Jidong manzai tsukkomi—and inevitably accompanied by the tsukkomi: "Chazuo, you've been hanging around here a lot these days, right?"
"Although I don't mind, Chazuo's reputation in everyone's talk has always been weird."
"Hmm…" Upon hearing the topic turn to herself, Chazuo also lifted her head from the screen, "I occasionally relay the help of 'friends' to them…… and then… they start to get a little afraid of me."
"Occasionally?" Aomo really hadn't thought that the so-called 'spirit-medium student confidential person' also occasionally self-disclosed, "I thought it was just before."
"Although they might be afraid…… the 'friends' are truly trying to help them."
"Understood."
Aomo nodded, already beginning to get used to this good kid's way of thinking.
Spirit mediums occasionally help convey messages from the dead; being a bit fearful also counts as everyone having fairly high quality, and this also not suspecting you of being a spirit-medium type counts as the students' thinking being relatively simple.
Tresen's style is indeed quite simple in many places; cutting-edge technology doesn't appear much, otherwise, during the previous haunting incident, if we had made a few girls wear memory extraction devices, Aomo would have immediately had to send them to the student council for interrogation.
After all, Suzi can even pull up that villain match voting page, so who knows whether Tresen might have other obsessions with villains as well?
By then, just seeing that photo would be enough to directly nail it.
However, these are all based on assumptions; in fact, memory extraction devices are too expensive and not very useful, so ordinary people wouldn't buy them.
Those are generally used for understanding case details and research, able to bypass the difficulty of 'limited expressive ability' and directly look at your brain.
As an interrogation tool, however, one must first deal with certain criminals' memory and mental locks.
Tresen has no interrogation personnel, but it does have researchers, even right under his own hand; Aomo hasn't confirmed whether Suzi has that thing, but even if she really did, it's better not to remind her.
Overall, just the appearance of that thing feels troublesome.
Or maybe just go take a look over there……
Upon thinking of that, and glancing once more at the distant crowd that was beginning to thin out, Aomo also stood up: "Pretty much time to go check out the infirmary over there."
"Chazuo, are you going?"
Chazuo shook her head: "I need to go check the shop."
On the other hand, Yuzao Juji suddenly lifted her head: "I also want to check on the rice bath and Special Week's condition!"
"You should finish your meal first before saying that," looking at this energetic little tyke, Aomo was somewhat speechless, "At worst I'll just wait a bit longer, hey hey don't eat so fast……"
As Aomo's fatigue from looking after the child grew, a familiar voice suddenly called out: "Trainer."
That voice had only been heard yesterday; after briefly tidying up the fatigue on his face and turning back, he saw the familiar figure with three-colored long hair and, beside her, a brown-haired figure still struggling.
They actually went up the rope, how did the student council even prepare something like this…
But ordinary hemp rope wouldn't work on horse girls either, right? Especially the university department's horse girls…
Watching Ludaofu Xiangzheng with both hands bound behind him, and Qianming representative constantly twisting the rope in front of everyone trying to free herself, Aomo couldn't help but wryly smile.
This solemn demeanor makes it hard not to suspect it's some kind of y.
The two horse girls I've admired since childhood stood before me; Aomo should have been nervous enough, but this atmosphere really diluted the feeling too much.

Especially the words that followed right after:
"Thank you for the notice; we inspected the air vents for recent documents and indeed found an unfamiliar permit."
"Eh eh eh!? It was reported by the Linton trainer? How exactly was it discovered?"
"Nothing much, just feel that the involvement of the Gold Ship is somewhat problematic; please look into it first."
"It turns out this way, the weakness is actually Duìyou?"
"You don't think the Gold Ship is strange, that's why I find it strange."
