Chapter 384: The Driver Who Likes to Be Tough
That's why Hojo Rin was deceived by Okuyama Hirono, but now she found the answer from her brother Hojo Go, which made Hojo Rin completely wake up, so she came back to apologize to Fujiwara Takumi.
Fujiwara Takumi is not a petty person. He knows that there are reasons why Hojo Rin became "077", so he naturally would not take Hojo Rin's mistakes to heart and chose to forgive Hojo Rin.
When Hojo Rin saw that Fujiwara Takumi had forgiven her, a huge stone in her heart finally fell.
Then, Uehara Mika suggested: "The game is over, how about we celebrate for you?"
Fujiwara Takumi thought about it, shook his head, and responded:
"No need. Anyway, I didn't win first place this time. I'm just runner-up. There's nothing to celebrate. Let's go back to training and prepare for the next international competition.
We have to seize this opportunity and win the championship in order to achieve our goal of winning a world-class competition."
When Uehara Mika heard Fujiwara Takumi decline his suggestion to go out and celebrate, she was not disappointed, but listened to his advice carefully.
So, Fujiwara Takumi led Uehara Mika and the others back to the training ground to continue their training journey.
Soon after, the much-anticipated world-class competition arrived. Fujiwara Takumi took Uehara Mika and the others to the registration site to sign up for the competition.
When Fujiwara Takumi completed all the registration procedures for the individual competition and was about to leave, Uehara Mika called him and said:
"Did you only sign up for the individual competition? But did you notice that there is also a team competition? Excellent results in the team competition can add points to the individual competition.
This means that as long as we can win both the team and individual events, we are very likely to break the previous world record and become a new record maker."
After listening to what Uehara Mika said, Fujiwara Takumi realized that there was such a thing as a team competition, but he didn't know that the team competition could add points to the individual competition.
Mika Uehara persuades Takumi Fujiwara:
“I know you are very strong, but accidents can happen during a competition, just like last time someone secretly changed your engine oil, causing you to lose a lot of time and only finish second.
It’s always good to have an extra insurance policy. If something goes wrong in the individual competition, we still have the team competition results to rely on.”
After listening to Uehara Mika's analysis, Fujiwara Takumi thought about it carefully, nodded in agreement and said, "Then let's do as you say. Let's go to the team competition now."
After deciding to participate in the team competition, Fujiwara Takumi and his team drove to another registration point. The registration locations for the individual and team competitions were separated to facilitate everyone to register.
However, for racers like Takumi Fujiwara who have to register for both, this arrangement is not very friendly because they have to drive a long distance.
The teams of Fujiwara Takumi and Ibaraki Ichiro had an argument at the registration office. The teams queuing around them were staring at them, wondering what the two teams were arguing about.
At this time, the referees came over, separated Fujiwara Takumi and Ibaraki Ichiro, and warned them.
Of course, Fujiwara Takumi and Ibaraki Ichiro did not want to lose their qualifications for the competition, so they listened to the referee and stopped arguing.
Seeing that they were restrained because they were worried about being disqualified, the referee nodded with satisfaction and warned: "Fighting is not allowed here, don't delay the registration of other contestants.
If there are any conflicts, please wait until the game is over to resolve them. Now is the game scene, please respect the rules. "
Fujiwara Takumi and Ibaraki Ichiro nodded in agreement. After the referee left, Fujiwara Takumi said to Ibaraki Ichiro: "You'd better not run into me during the game, otherwise I guarantee you won't even be able to see my taillights."
Ibaraki Ichiro listened, smiled maliciously, and responded: "Let's see if you can still say that when the time comes."
Afterwards, the two of them completed their registration, and the team left the registration point quietly, without saying a word all the way.
After registration, Takumi Fujiwara and his team came to the temporary rest area and waited for instructions from the referee, who would announce the game time through the radio.
In the rest area, Tang Xiong Yi Ze reminded Fujiwara Takumi: "If you meet Ibaraki Ichiro in the game, you must be vigilant and don't compete with him easily."
"You may not be able to see Ichiro Ibaraki at ordinary times, but when he gets really ruthless, no one can stop him."
Fujiwara Takumi nodded, indicating that he remembered what Tang Xiong Yi Ze said.
Soon, the broadcast sounded, notifying the players for the individual and team competitions to go to different venues. Seeing that the competition time had been set, Fujiwara Takumi prepared to set off.
He said to Tang Xiong Yize and the others, "We are going to our respective venues. Everyone, be careful. Performance comes second, safety comes first. Don't let anything unexpected happen."
Uehara Mika waved her hand, indicating that she understood Fujiwara Takumi's meaning, and said to him: "The same goes for you. When something happens, protect yourself first, then you can move on."
Fujiwara Takumi nodded to confirm receipt of the message.
Afterwards, the group went their separate ways, heading for different competition venues according to the instructions given on the broadcast, and soon arrived at their destination.
Fujiwara Takumi rushed to the competition site, and next to it was a hangar. He ran straight to the hangar and found that the same car repairmen were busy inside.
Takumi looked at the repairmen in confusion and asked them, "Aren't you working at the last place? Why are you here?"
The mechanics quickly explained the situation: "This is what happened. We are responsible for the maintenance of all the vehicles for the competitions in this area. The previous venue was closed, so we were transferred here to continue our old business."
After hearing this explanation, Takumi understood what was going on. He nodded, walked towards his racing car, and said to the masters, "Please help me take a look at the car again."
The masters agreed readily and told him: "We have checked all the racing cars in the hangar, especially yours. We have checked it over and over again. We guarantee that there is nothing wrong with it. You can drive it with confidence."
After listening to him, Takumi scanned the car again with his own system and found that there was indeed no problem. He then completely believed what the masters said. He did this not because he did not trust others, but to ensure the safety of the car, so as to avoid the same situation as before, where the race went wrong due to car problems, and he missed the championship and could not even touch the threshold of the finals.
Takumi got into the car, said goodbye to the masters, started the car, and headed straight for the track.
Arriving at the track, Takumi waited quietly. He looked around and saw Okuyama Hirono.
At this time, Okuyama Hirono was chatting with someone and felt someone staring at him from behind. He turned around suddenly and met Takumi's gaze. When he found that Takumi was paying attention to him, Okuyama Hirono smiled.
Takumi saw Okuyama Hirono smiling at him and felt something was wrong. After all, they had a feud, so this smile must have bad intentions.
Takumi knew that Okuyama Hirono was always trying to trip him up. Now that he showed up at his competition, Takumi naturally became alert and decided to be fully alert in the next game and not let Okuyama Hirono's conspiracy succeed.
Seeing that Okuyama Hirono was still staring at him, Takumi hurriedly checked the car again using the system and confirmed that Okuyama Hirono had not tampered with it. Only then did he relax and concentrate on the upcoming race.
