This race is tough on Taisuke! There’s no way we can win! We’re definitely going to lose~
\nAs expected, we’re losing. Then we went to something called a rider meeting and listened in while trying to blend in…
\nThe talk just kept going on and on… The national anthem played, and they held a microphone up to a boombox speaker to amplify it\u2014
\nan amazing conversion technique…
\nSo there we were, me and the boss, not really listening carefully to what the MC people were saying into their microphones from right in front of us…
\nWe were taking photos of people and grinning, and then something funny happened\u2014the MC person said\u2014
\n“Well, I’m already 60 years old now, but this person next to me, \u25ce\u25ce, is
\na whole order of magnitude older than me~” or so they said…
\nThe boss next to them goes “600 years old~hahahaha~”
\nI caught the bug and started laughing too~and everyone else started laughing~
\nThere’s no way it’s a whole order of magnitude! People don’t live that long~
\nPokidam
\nAnd then everyone enjoyed the 100-yen game… The truth is, I didn’t want to jump in because it was so intense…
\nYou’re spinning it too much! It’s not a spinning game\u2014it’s a game where you’re supposed to aim for the goal!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
