Under the cover of the Olympics, the French and the Holy See agreed on how to invade North Africa and how to turn it into their colony. At this time, the Olympic Games have also entered a state of climax.

Over the next two days, the 100-meter and 200-meter races were won in succession, both of which were unsurprisingly won by the Sun's journalist Dressler, who won the first and second gold medals of the Games, which naturally made him so famous that The Sun even decided to erect a bronze statue of him in front of his newspaper. The statue naturally looks like a Dressler in a suit with a pen in one hand and a notebook in the other, and there is a line on the base of the statue: "First to Hermes of this era." ”

On the racecourse, at this time, the preliminaries had ended, and under the arrangement of intentional or unintentional, Polina entered the final smoothly. There were eight horses in the final stage, and of the seven competitors besides Polina, only Mari-Henri Bella was a middle-class man. Everyone else is the son of wealthy families.

Because of the setting of the tracks, of these tracks, starting from the fifth track is the most advantageous, while the first and eighth tracks are the most disadvantageous. So during the draw on the track, because of God's will, Polina naturally drew the fifth track, and the two guys who posed the biggest threat to Polina, an Englishman named Andy who also had a thoroughbred horse, were drawn to the first lane, and a Russian named Onegin, who rode an Arabian horse, was drawn to the eighth lane. As for Mari-Henri Berla, he was put down in the second best lane because of his solid results (basically no threat).

Of course, there are absolutely no problems in this draw. That's what God wants, and God wants it to be, and that's how it came to be.

This is the second time Mari-Henri Berla has competed with Polina, and he was on the track next to Polina before he started. The horses of the two men were separated by a wooden fence, and the distance between the two men was close at hand.

This made Baussion almost die of jealousy. On more than one occasion, he tried to bribe Mari-Henri Berla to get him to agree to impersonate him in order to get a closer look at the girl of his dreams. But at this time, Mari-Henri Berla behaved very unfriendly and resolutely objected.

Although Mari-Henri Berla is obviously "heavy on color and light on friends", it is really "not a good thing". But Baussion was very kind enough to continue to lend him his sweatshirt.

"I know, you want to attract her attention with a fancy dress like this." Baussion said this not without jealousy.

Generally speaking, people who participate in equestrian competitions still pay great attention to their image, after all, the weight of the clothes really has little impact on the horses. So most people are well-dressed. There are only two exceptions.

The first of these was naturally Mari-Henri Berla in tank top shorts, and the other was naturally Polina on track 5 next to him.

Unlike the men's outfits of previous games, today Polina once again wore the same Artemis hunting costume she wore at the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games. Her blonde hair was pulled up and coiled on top of her head. Under the backdrop of the Greek goddess-like costume, it looks more and more heroic and moving.

It's not ready yet, and there's still some things on the track that aren't quite ready. The riders were leading their horses and waiting inside the wooden fences, perhaps because of the tension before the final, with many horses wagging their tails and snorting.

"Hey, why did you come to the race in such a suit?" Polina was the first to take the initiative to talk to Mari-Henri Berla.

"Ah, my horse is old, and neither the speed nor the bounce are good enough, so I have to lose as much weight as possible." Mari-Henri Berla replied.

When Polina heard this, she laughed. Her eyes wandered, she looked Mari-Henri Berla up and down, and said, "You must have eaten very little for breakfast." And didn't drink water, did he? ”

"Yes, that's part of weight loss." Mari-Henri Berla quite frankly admitted.

"We were in a group in the first heats, so I'll pay attention to you then." Polina said generously, "In the whole group, your skills are the best. Mr. Stendhal, it is a great honour for me to be with you. ”

"You know ......" Mari-Henri Berla was taken aback.

"You've put several high-level articles in my magazine." Polina laughed, "I've always wanted to find you. But it wasn't until recently that my hired private investigator told me that you were also coming to the equestrian competition. Well, you are now studying at the Higher School of Engineering and Technology? ”

"Yes, Miss Chrissy." Mari-Henri Bella was a little nervous.

"I didn't expect you to study mechanics. When I read your article, I thought you were studying art. Well, Mr. Stendhal, now is not a good time to chat. Next Wednesday, I'm going to have a gathering at the salon, and it's all artists. Don't know if you're interested in visiting my salon? Polina sent him an invitation right away.

"I ...... I am very honored. Mari-Henri Berla replied, thinking, "If Baussion knew that I had been invited by Miss Chrissy, he would have been mad with jealousy......"

At this time, the whistle for the start sounded. Polina then said to Mari-Henri Berla: "Okay, we'll talk later, now, we're going to race." ”

With that, she jumped on her horse.

"Good luck, Mr. Stendhal. Well, I won't wish you a championship. Because I am bound to win this crown! Polina smiled with a wave of her little fist.

"It was a surprise that I was able to reach the final. I wish you the best of luck and become the second female Olympic champion since Princess Siniska! Mari-Henri Berla also got on his horse and stretched out his hand to her.

Polina reached out and shook Mali-Henri Berla gently: "Thank you for your blessings. She smiled happily, and Mari-Henri Berla felt as if a poppy had bloomed in front of him.

There was another whistle outside. This is the second reminder for the riders. After this reminder, it means that the game is about to start at any time.

Mali-Henri Berla and Polina both brace their spirits because in the final, the start is so important.
