At Tracen, doing time was my specialty

Why was he acting like the Ice Cream Machine was his buddy?

"What's going on with this Ice Cream Machine? I remember my Uma Musume being pretty fond of it."

McQueen would be mine sooner or later, so there was nothing wrong with putting it that way.

But now that the Ice Cream Machine had been moved to the Basement, what would happen over at the Cafeteria?

You sit in the Basement, and I sit in the Cafeteria?

Great. Trading bases was always a top-tier strategy, no matter the situation... great, my ass!

Wait, no. How was I supposed to lure McQueen into the Cafeteria and then lock the freezer?

"Oh, that. Apparently, the Cafeteria staff found that someone had broken the Ice Cream Machine this morning. It looked like something heavy had crushed it, so..."

[Invincible Lord of Seaside]: Did McQueen crush it?

[Rice Cake Fatty]: What did McQueen ever do to you?! Why are you picking on her like this?!

Today, yet another Uma Musume in the Livestream Room had a meltdown.

[Side-Eyeing Lewd Manga Teacher]: McQueen, huh? Well, she really is pretty heavy. I always see her trying to lose weight.

"H-hey?!"

Who were you calling heavy?! Was that dieting I'd been doing lately? I was training!

McQueen wanted to grit her teeth and argue back, but someone had already been doxxed. If she did the same, who knew how the Uma Musume in the Livestream Room would mock her afterward?

Besides, who knew what mortifying things she would do over the next few nights?

If her identity got exposed, wouldn't that mean...

No, anything but that!!!

"I might get made fun of in all sorts of ways, and then I'd cause trouble for the Mejiro Family, and then..."

Just thinking
