The next morning, in the trainer's office, after revising the training plans, Chiya began to look for part-time jobs.
His trainer's salary was clearly not enough. To cover Shirayuki's expenses, he needed to find some side work.
Preferably a night shift, paid by the hour, but not too late.
A convenience store cashier was out of the question; their night shifts were on a rotating basis.
Food delivery seemed possible.
But he didn't have a bicycle, and most delivery drivers now were Horse Girls, who were much faster than him. By the time he arrived, the food would probably be cold.
Instead of earning money, he'd end up getting a complaint and losing some. That would be a huge loss.
Looking at the various requirements on the websites, either the times didn't match, the locations didn't match, or they required special qualifications and skills.
The ones he could do paid too little and were passed over.
Isn't there a job that's easy, time-saving, and pays well?
With this unrealistic thought, Chiya scrolled down the webpage. Soon, a recruitment ad caught his eye.
"Requirements: Tracen student. Daily salary: 8,000 yen."
What kind of job is this?! Why is the salary so high? And it's only for Tracen students. Could it be...
Chiya clicked on it. After seeing who had posted it, he instantly calmed down.
It was a recruitment ad from the Mejiro family.
No wonder the daily salary was so high. It was the deep-pocketed Mejiro family. He had thought it was some kind of shady business, wondering how such a job could be brazenly advertised on a legitimate recruitment site.
Well, since he had already clicked on it, he might as well see what they wanted a Tracen student for.
[This job will not interfere with the student's normal class and training hours. Details will be discussed in person.]
What's with all the mystery?
Looking at the tempting number on the page, Chiya tapped his fingers. After a few minutes, he silently noted the phone number and the address for the meeting.
Maybe... I should let Shirayuki give it a try?
...
After class, Shirayuki took a car to the designated location. As soon as she got out, she saw a two-story villa with a large courtyard.
A house like this in Tokyo must cost at least twenty to thirty million yen.
It wasn't too expensive. If she saved up without eating or drinking, she could afford it in nine years.
Led by a servant in black at the gate, Shirayuki went upstairs to a room on the second floor. The servant opened the door and gestured for her to enter.
Swallowing hard, Shirayuki gave herself a silent pep talk.
She was even more nervous than she had been during her central exam interview.
She was about to meet the head of the Mejiro family, a major figure with considerable status in the entire racing world. If she did anything impolite, her future would be over.
Seeing the chair prepared for her in the middle of the room, she sat down.
Facing the midday sun, the strong backlight made it impossible for the girl to see the family head's face, only a vague outline.
Do all these big shots love to be so mysterious?
"Fujiwara Shirayuki, correct?"
"Yes."
From the voice, the family head sounded quite young, maybe around thirty.
"According to our phone call, you are a new transfer student who arrived a few days ago?"
"Yes."
"Are you good at housework?" the person asked.
"Yes. I lived on my own for four years, during which I did all the housework myself."
"Have you had any experience taking care of others before?"
"Taking care of others?"
Shirayuki was taken aback.
"I worked as a caregiver at a Horse Girl kindergarten. Does that count?"
Back then, to quickly understand the running habits of Horse Girls, Chiya had taken a part-time job at a kindergarten just to watch them run on the playground.
He had done it for a full three months.
"A caregiver, huh? That's quite good." As if satisfied with this answer, the person nodded.
"If I were to ask you to become our child's teacher, would you be willing?"
"Huh?"
This question completely baffled Shirayuki.
What do you mean, 'teacher'?
Finally, the head of the Mejiro family revealed the true purpose of the recruitment.
"Mejiro Dober... our daughter, Dober. She's not very good at socializing and often says the wrong thing, causing her to struggle at Tracen. No trainer has been willing to accept her so far. So, I'm hoping to find a Tracen student to help her overcome her difficulty with socializing."
Family members were too familiar to be effective.
Letting her make friends on her own had yielded little result.
So, the head of the Mejiro family had decided to hire someone to help.
This person needed to be in constant contact with her, act as her communication partner, and be willing to help change her personality.
This wasn't just about making friends; it also required some educational ability, constantly observing Dober's actions and stepping in to help when necessary.
It was a very time-consuming and labor-intensive job.
Others had applied for this job before, but they had all refused due to the strict conditions.
Tracen students were all striving for Graded Races. A single victory would bring them immense glory. Who would be willing to be someone else's nanny?
So, until now, the Mejiro family had not found a suitable candidate.
"And... Dober has a fear of men."
"A fear of men?"
"Yes. When she's around men, she tends to get nervous and emotional. So, special attention must be paid when she interacts with them."
"She has that problem too..." Shirayuki was surprised.
So that was why her attitude that day had been so hostile.
"So, what do you think? Can you accept?"
The head of the Mejiro family used an inquisitive tone, clearly understanding that the job was very difficult for a student.
But the daily salary they offered was also quite high.
Shirayuki hesitated.
A daily salary of 8,000 yen to be a nanny for her own classmate. Should she take this job or not?
"Can I think about it?" Shirayuki said.
She needed to weigh how much time she would have to spend on it.
"If you agree now, we can raise your daily salary to 9,000."
"It's not about the money. I'm also an undebuted Horse Girl and have my own life. If all my time is spent on solving Dober-senpai's problems, it will affect me as well."
"10,000."
"It's really not about the money."
"11,000."
"Um..."
"12,000."
...
"Ahem... money is a secondary concern. The main thing is that as an educator, and also as Dober-senpai's roommate, it pains me to hear that she is troubled by such a problem. As her junior, I feel I must do something."
"So you're saying?"
"Deal."
