Chapter 96 A Woman's Intuition

After the meeting, both sides returned to their respective teams for final instrument checks.

"An old flame?"

The two hadn't walked far when Saeko Busujima's voice rang out.

"Huh?" Junichi turned his head and saw Saeko Busujima looking at him with a mocking expression.

"Did you figure it out?" Junichi touched his nose.

Putting aside her family background, it's clear that the woman in front of me is far above the average master; she's probably at the peak of the master level, almost reaching the grandmaster level.

The most distinctive feature is that this type of tea has a certain material foundation, but focuses more on spiritual gain. It has a strong possessiveness, not letting you have it, but also not letting you leave. It seems close, but in reality, it is a world apart. It will keep you hanging on and play with your feelings. If the reaction is too strong, it may even destroy you if necessary.

It's like a toy, a private possession, not to be touched by others!

"You underestimate a woman's intuition."

Saeko Busujima said eloquently, "Although I hate to say it, I have to admit that with your looks, very few girls could remain unmoved. And that girl kept her head down the whole time, and didn't even dare to look you in the eye. I don't believe there wasn't something going on."

There's something Saeko Busujima didn't mention: if she were truly an innocent girl, there's no way she could have gotten into Hondo Isao's car.

Junichi Segawa smiled and asked, "What about Ms. Busujima? Is she also within this range?"

"You really are a complete scumbag. I could forgive those three girls before, and then there was that pink-haired one, and now you're still playing this trick on me. Hmph, if you weren't still worth anything, believe me, I'd sink you straight into Tokyo Bay!"

Seeing that the other party still dared to harass her so brazenly, Saeko Busujima's pretty face was covered with frost.

Junichi shook his head and said, "Then you've misunderstood. My relationship with that girl isn't what you're thinking. Broadly speaking, we're at most friends of the opposite sex who have had some interaction."

"What kind of communication, in bed?" Saeko Busujima scoffed.

"Ahem, Miss Busujima, you may have misunderstood me. I am not such a superficial person."

Junichi Sei spoke with righteous indignation.

I really want to sleep.

It can only be said that her best friend is in the way, not even giving Junichi a chance to show off his sashimi cooking skills.

"Really? You were staring at me intently just now!"

Saeko Busujima pursed her lips.

"You asked me to see it."

"you!"

"Alright, let's not discuss this anymore. In short, I would never make a move on a good girl."

Junichi Sei promptly stopped this pointless conversation.

Unless someone insists on attaching it.

He silently added a sentence in his mind.

"Hmph, you're passive, irresponsible, and never refuse, is that it?"

Saeko Busujima hummed softly.

"Is Miss Busujima jealous?" Junichi Sei suddenly asked.

"What did you say!" Saeko Busujima suddenly looked at Junichi Se, her face darkening.

"It seems that after meeting Ogasawara, Ms. Busujima started verbally attacking me constantly. Or is it just my imagination?"

Junichi Sei had a smile on his lips, and his eyes seemed to see right through people.

"That's boring. Instead of that, you should focus on driving! You're up against a professional race car driver. If you lose, you know the consequences."

Saeko Busujima turned away, said something coldly, and parted ways with Junichi Se.

Junichi looked at the other person's cold back and smiled helplessly.

Jealousy and such were just casual remarks.

However, judging from the other party's attitude from the beginning until now, it is clear that my two slaps were quite effective.

Comrade Zhang Jiayi is absolutely right; if you want a woman to love you, you really do have to slap her twice!

Speaking of that mysterious professional race car driver, he was truly exceptionally arrogant.

The team hasn't shown up since they reached the summit of Mount Akina, seemingly ignoring him completely, or perhaps no matter which opponent appears, they are not worth mentioning to him.

It's funny, actually.

It was supposed to be a contest between two teams, but in the end, they both called up foreign players.

Of course, compared to the relatively unknown Junichi Se, the opposing team had hired a professional rally championship driver from WRC.

Therefore, public opinion is almost overwhelmingly negative.

Regardless of whether Junichi Se appears or not, this match is actually unfair, but Saeko Busujima seems to have a compelling reason to accept the match.

"Long Yijun, don't hold back for a while."

At this point, both cars had completed their instrument checks, and just as a modified Evo3 was about to drive toward the designated race point, Hondo Isao approached the car window.

Inside the Evo3 was a man with a buzz cut. He couldn't help but find Hondo Isao's serious demeanor amusing: "Mr. Hondo, it's just a regular road race, is it really necessary to be so serious?"

The rally races that Ryuichi Kijima usually participates in not only have treacherous roads, but also very complex terrain, unlike the smooth and easy Akina Mountain now.

Having won numerous domestic awards, he didn't take this common path seriously.

What's more, their opponent was just an unknown kid.

However, Hondo Isao said solemnly, "I have confidence in Ryuichi's strength, otherwise I wouldn't have gone to such lengths to invite you. But as we said in the contract, the prerequisite for receiving the other part of the commission is that you must win this match."

"This match is of great significance to me, and I hope Long Yijun will give it his all."

After saying this, Hondo Isao bowed solemnly, as if he were not joking.

Faced with Hondou Isao's combination of sweetness and harshness, Kijima Ryuichi's gaze shifted. Knowing the background of the person in front of him, he suppressed the frivolous look on his face: "I understand."

At the same time, Junichi Sei's black RX-7 slowly drove towards the starting line.

That's right, he wasn't driving his R8.

Downhill racing demands more skill than uphill racing, and high-powered engines are limited. In contrast, manual transmission sports cars with relatively smaller displacement offer a stronger sense of control. Because Mount Akina has many curves and requires frequent braking, the acceleration and shifting advantages of a manual transmission can be fully demonstrated.

Similarly, it can also improve the ability to respond to emergencies.

However, if they continue to use the 5.2-liter R8 engine, and accelerate without any restraint like on an uphill road, it will only take a few minutes for them to break through the guardrail on a downhill race.

While using drainage ditches to navigate bends can improve the chassis's grip, speed and inertia cannot be completely ignored!

As the car girl, dressed in short leather pants that barely covered her hips, slowly approached the center of the two cars, everyone involuntarily held their breath, so quiet that they could even hear the car girl's crisp countdown.

"Ten, nine, eight...three, two, one, go!"

The car girl held up a colorful flag and then dropped it heavily amidst a dazzling wave.

The two modified cars roared out of the starting line together, their turbochargers blazing.

The Rx-7 and Evo3 have similar power, with 0-100 km/h acceleration times of 4.5 and 4.9 respectively. Therefore, after crossing the starting line, Junichi Sei's Rx-7 was clearly ahead by more than half a car's front end, and by the time it entered the first corner, it was already more than half a car's length ahead.

However, this advantage did not last long. After the two cars entered the corner, the gap was made up in an instant.

The Evo3, which was originally half a second slower to enter the corner, gained super-strong acceleration power as soon as it exited the corner thanks to its unique anti-lag system and the reduced lag effect of the turbocharged engine.

As a professional race car driver, Ryuichi Iruma made full use of his car's performance, and in that instant, he managed to take the lead despite the pressure from the outside, steadily blocking Junichi Se's car.

"So strong!"

This opening scene alone put the hearts of Saeko Busujima's team on edge.

Inside a secluded RV, a delicate face with a slightly round chin watched the scene intently through the window, but the next second she said resentfully, "Hmph, why care about this bastard? He was just making fun of me!"
