Chapter 66 - Chapter 66: They put down distrust but had not yet built trust.

The work of a sous chef was not easy, but fortunately, the restaurant's rating was indeed high.

So the salary was also relatively much higher.

This was also why Tokai Shizen hadn't resigned yet.

After all, with the money in place, other problems were easy for Tokai Shizen to solve.

However... "Perhaps it's really time to consider resigning."

It was natural for Tokai Shizen to consider resigning, after all, the work intensity of a sous chef was indeed too high.

And recently, more and more Uma Musume have been coming to order.

Quite a few parts of that set menu were also handed over to others in the back kitchen to handle.

Relatively speaking, although Tokai Shizen's workload was significantly reduced, she was essentially getting more and more tired, because she had to handle the seasoning and temperature control herself.

"Hmm, I'll wait a bit longer. If I resign now, it seems also..."

Listening to Tokai Shizen's conflicted words, Speed Symbol, who had just strolled out of the bathroom wearing a bathrobe that exposed her thighs, simply stared at Tokai Shizen: "If you want to resign, then resign. It's not a difficult thing."

"Elderly people wearing so little late at night, is that okay?"

Without directly responding to Speed Symbol's words, Tokai Shizen merely reminded her that she might catch a cold.

"The Uma Musume's full transformation will maintain their physical condition until a period before death, so it's fine. If we're simply looking at physical condition, getting married again isn't a problem, you know ~"

"What are you trying to do?"

Turning her head to look at Speed Symbol, Tokai Shizen couldn't imagine Speed Symbol in a wedding dress.

No, if the other party was an Uma Musume, perhaps she should wear a suit?

Tokai Shizen's pensive expression while staring at herself was naturally seen by Speed Symbol.

She didn't know what Tokai Shizen was thinking.

But for Speed Symbol, there was no need to dwell on the issue.

She simply sat down next to Tokai Shizen: "On Twitter, the restaurant where you work is getting better and better reviews among Uma Musume."

"Hmm, I know. Recently, those Uma Musume are almost filling up the reservations. That menu is very tiring for me to make now."

"Resign, then. Don't push yourself if you're not feeling well."

Saying this, Speed Symbol looked up at the second floor.

After room assignments, Tokai Mochizuki mostly slept on the second floor with Speed Symbol.

After all, Speed Symbol didn't have to work or do anything, so taking care of the child was indeed more suitable for Speed Symbol.

And during the time Tokai Shizen was an apprentice, she basically went to the market every morning around five or six to select ingredients.

So, in order for Mochizuki to get good rest, she would sleep in Speed Symbol's room.

Looking at the second floor, Speed Symbol's gaze seemed to pass through the floor, reaching Tokai Mochizuki.

After a few seconds, she lowered her head and looked at Tokai Shizen: "No matter what I say, I won't ignore my great-granddaughter."

"..."

Looking up at Speed Symbol.

Her long hair was spread over her yukata, waiting to air dry naturally.

Tokai Shizen knew that Speed Symbol meant well, and she understood that she was worried about her health.

But... "Sorry, I don't trust you."

Tokai Shizen's words were within Speed Symbol's expectations.

After all, what happened before was...

So, the two of them stopped.

Everything fell silent.

Soon, her damp hair completely dried.

Speed Symbol stood up: "I'm going to rest. You should rest early too."

"Okay."

----------

"Next is..."

Comparing the document in her hand with the document on the desk, Rudolph Symboli, wearing glasses, had a hint of worry in her eyes.

"This year's Japan Cup..."

The Japan Cup is a race that starts in late October, but preparations for registration usually begin now.

And the annual Japan Cup was always a point of high blood pressure for Rudolph Symboli.

After all, the direct competition between Japanese Uma Musume and foreign Uma Musume always gave her a headache.

Especially this year, there was no Representative Chiaki or Maruzensky to share the blood pressure with her.

So... Rudolph Symboli sighed, shifted her gaze slightly, and then put down the document in her hand.

She knew the upcoming Japan Cup was very important, but for Rudolph, there was another race worth paying attention to.

The Autumn Tenno Sho in late September.

Rudolph Symboli, who failed to help Oguri Cap successfully apply for the Japanese Derby entry conditions, could only watch this race in the end.

After all, the Autumn Tenno Sho, Japan Cup, and Arima Kinen were the last races Oguri Cap could participate in this year, and as the Uma Musume she scouted from the local circuit.

Rudolph Symboli naturally paid more attention to Oguri Cap.

"I wonder how Oguri Cap is doing."

Rudolph Symboli's face showed a hint of worry as she spoke.

When Rudolph Symboli discovered Oguri Cap, Tamamo Cross had not yet fully risen to prominence; she had only won a few races on the verge of switching to dirt track racing.

No one could determine if her future would continue as it was.

So… "Tamamo Cross, too. The state of these two really makes one worry…"

Muttering these words, Rudolph Symboli's expression was not good.

The door to the Student Council Room was pushed open.

Without even needing to look up, Rudolph knew who had arrived.

After all, only one person could enter without knocking, simply pushing the door open.

"Is something wrong?"

Looking up at the other person, Rudolph Symboli saw Sirius Symboli standing at the doorway.

Sirius Symboli looked at Rudolph: "Regarding the Tokai Family's matter, do you want to take a look?"

"The Tokai Family? What else could happen to the Tokai Family? It's not like the Symbol Family and the Mejiro Family working together couldn't solve this, right?"

A hint of worry appeared on Rudolph Symboli's face.

It wasn't worry for the Symbol Family or the Mejiro Family.

There was only one situation that could make Rudolph Symboli worry.

Tokai Roman.

Sirius Symboli looked at the worried Rudolph, merely shaking her head and sighing at how the once imperious Emperor had changed before responding: "The Tokai Family is about to be completely finished. How should we handle the Uma Musume within them?"

"This,"

Hearing this, Rudolph did not respond immediately.

She was silent for a few seconds before answering: "I want to know one thing. Can it be confirmed?"

"What is it?"

"I want to know where Tokai Shizen gave birth."

A hint of humility was revealed in her words.

"…" Looking at Rudolph's somewhat pleading expression, Sirius Symboli merely nodded: "I will tell you after it's investigated."

"Mm… thank you."
