After all, judging from this situation, the other party must have scouted the spot and was just waiting for him to come out.
Siegfried reached for the Heavenly Judgment at his waist, on high alert to prevent any sudden crisis.
"Sneaking around behind someone isn't a good habit. Why not come out and meet them?"
Chapter 206 Bai Mo: This is me hitting you on behalf of Kiana!
Just as Siegfried finished speaking, a petite, porcelain doll-like figure suddenly appeared in front of him.
Looking around, Siegfried was completely focused and saw the girl holding a paintbrush, drawing something in the air.
"Is this the person who's been following me? A little girl who's not even an adult yet?"
Siegfried frowned slightly, thinking to himself.
Then, with a hint of doubt, Siegfried slowly asked, "Little girl, can't you find your parents?"
"No, it was Asura who told me to wait for you here."
When Siegfried approached her to speak, Greta spoke calmly as she colored her painting.
On the drawing board, there was a striking depiction of the scene where she and Siegfried met in the alley.
From the very beginning, Siegfried's movements were exactly what Gretsch had anticipated.
"Asuragi? Wait for me?"
A name I've never heard of before, could it be someone sent by Otto?
Siegfried was still confused about how things had unfolded.
But one thing he was certain of was that the little girl in front of him had no hostility towards him.
But if that's the case, what is the other party's purpose in wanting to keep you here?
"Hmm...time's up."
While Siegfried was still pondering, Greta started talking to herself.
The next second, to Siegfried's astonishment, Greta gently swung her paintbrush.
Thick, colorful strokes appeared, forming a barrier that slowly enveloped the two of them.
Just now, Gretchen sensed a trace of Bai Mo's presence, and according to the agreement, she was now required to trap Siegfried.
"Who exactly are you people? What do you want?"
Trapped within this sudden barrier, Siegfried, holding the Judgment of Heavenly Fire, cautiously surveyed his surroundings.
The strength of the barrier exceeded his expectations; breaking through it by brute force would definitely not work unless he could unleash the Heavenly Fire once.
But the consequences of doing so were obvious, so Siegfried decided to wait and see what the other side's purpose was.
However, Siegfried was still somewhat shocked by Gretchen's move.
It's quite a blow to people to know that such a young girl is so strong.
In addition, just as Siegfried was thinking this, ripples suddenly appeared on the barrier behind Greta.
A tall, slender figure wearing a fox mask walked in and came to Gretchen's side.
The person who arrived was Bai Mo. She was a little late because the check-out process at the hotel was a bit complicated.
"Well done, Gretchen." Bai Mo squatted down, patted Gretchen's little head, and then, under Siegfried's wary gaze, she slowly said, "Nice to meet you, Mr. Siegfried."
"You're Asura? So, what exactly do you want by deliberately trapping me here, young lady?"
Siegfried subtly adjusted the muzzle of the Heavenly Fire Judgment, aiming it at Bai Mo, and then smiled, feigning composure.
In reality, he would not hesitate to fire if Bai Mo made any unusual move.
Siegfried's little action naturally couldn't be hidden from Bai Mo, but she didn't pay it any mind.
Because unless Siegfried launches a powerful attack, he is not afraid.
However, since the atmosphere had been built up to this point, Bai Mo was itching to test Siegfried's strength.
Although hitting one's father-in-law is wrong, Bai Mo would be happy to help Kiana get revenge.
Thinking of this, a mischievous thought arose in Bai Mo's mind. He chuckled and then took something out of his pocket.
"Mr. Siegfried, look at what I'm holding. Doesn't it look familiar?"
What Bai Mo held in his hand was an ordinary handkerchief, but it held a different meaning for Siegfried.
This was a gift he had personally given to Kiana, which she had always treasured. But now, this handkerchief had suddenly appeared in the hands of this mysterious girl, and Siegfried was furious.
"What did you do to Kiana?!"
Overwhelmed by rage, Siegfried gritted his teeth and said, while simultaneously moving his two pistols, several tongues of fire shot out from the muzzles and attacked Bai Mo's position.
"Kiana? I wonder which Kiana you're referring to, Mr. Siegfried?"
Seeing that he had successfully provoked Siegfried's fighting spirit and dodged the attack, Bai Mo decided to add fuel to the fire and spoke sarcastically.
"What do you mean?"
Seeing the other party's suggestive look, Siegfried was furious and immediately used his gun-fu technique to attack Bai Mo.
But could she really know something from what she said? While attacking, Siegfried's expression was solemn, his eyes fixed on Bai Mo.
"The literal meaning, Mr. Siegfried, don't you miss your two daughters at all?"
"Or are you simply unwilling to face them? Coward!"
Bai Mo said in an icy tone.
He then dodged Siegfried's attack with a swift movement, and in the blink of an eye, Bai Mo was already behind Siegfried.
Bai Mo conjured a longsword and swung it down heavily at Siegfried.
Siegfried dodged to the side in time, then fired several shots at the Judgment of Heavenly Fire behind him.
Bai Mo held his twin swords horizontally in front of him, deflecting all the bullets. Then he kicked out, and due to the momentum of his body, Siegfried, who had no time to dodge, was instantly sent flying several meters away.
Bai Mo seized the opportunity, his body suddenly moving forward, and he delivered a low-powered version of the Inch Punch Heaven-Opening Strike in front of Siegfried.
"Uh."
A punch landed on his stomach, and Siegfried groaned in pain before slamming hard against the barrier beside him.
"This punch is on Kiana's behalf, and by the way, I'm also calling you a stinky old man for her."
She's really tough. She rubbed her fist; she'd used at least 80% of her strength in that punch, and it was a way of getting revenge for Kiana.
"Take Kiana's place? What are you talking about?"
It would have been better if he hadn't said it; once he did, even Siegfried himself was dumbfounded.
Siegfried slowly stood up, but this time he didn't rush to retaliate. Instead, he stood there blankly, clearly still processing the meaning of those words.
That jerk dad? He punched himself for Kiana? Is this... him standing up for Kiana?
Could it be that the girl named Asura in front of us is actually a friend of Kiana?
This phrase, "stinky old man," seems to have pulled Siegfried back to that snowy night a few years ago.
A flood of memories washed over him, and Siegfried's expression became momentarily visibly moved.
"After all these years, do you know how much Kiana misses you, and you can't even muster the courage to see her?"
"You think you're protecting her? Ridiculous. Your protection is far too cheap."
Chapter 207 Siegfried: Is she doing well?
Bai Mo's words were like a heavy hammer blow, striking Siegfried's heart hard.
Yes, he was indeed not a good father. Over the years, he had wronged Kiana in many ways.
"So, all you did was to get revenge for Kiana, right?"
Siegfried wasn't stupid. If he still couldn't see that Bai Mo was Kiana's friend, then he would have wasted all these years.
After all, the other party's words were full of concern for Kiana.
To be honest, he was quite happy that Kiana had such a friend.
In an instant, after figuring things out, Siegfried's anger completely dissipated. In fact, if he could, he would be willing to take a few more beatings as long as Kiana was happy.
"What, do you want Kiana to beat you up herself?"
Bai Mo rolled his eyes in annoyance. Why did his father-in-law seem a little dim-witted?
"Um... Miss Asura, may I call you that? May I ask how Kiana is doing lately?"
Knowing he was in the wrong, Siegfried just smiled awkwardly and then inquired about Kiana's recent condition.
After all, he had been busy lately and hadn't paid attention to Kiana.
"To be honest, I can't answer that question either, since it's really not appropriate for me to have any contact with Kiana now that I'm in this position."
"However, I secretly found out a while ago that Kiana is quite happy with Mei and Bronya by her side."
The "a while ago" Bai Mo was referring to was, of course, when they were in the town of Kroka. She wasn't quite sure about anything beyond that.
"Is there something you're having trouble saying? I can tell that you and Kiana are definitely best friends."
Otherwise, Kiana wouldn't have given you that handkerchief, would she?
After learning that Kiana was doing well, Siegfried felt a little relieved.
Of course, Siegfried was also very curious about Bai Mo's statement that she was not suitable to be in contact with Kiana at the moment, and immediately asked about it.
I don't mean anything by it, it's just a little regrettable. After all, it's sad that Kiana doesn't have such a caring friend by her side. Kiana must be heartbroken.
"You might not believe it, but in Kiana's eyes, I'm already a dead man."
“How could someone who has already died once appear in front of them again like before? So I decided to play along and come to the shadows to protect her.”
"Given Kiana's special status, Otto will definitely take action. It just so happens that I'm in the shadows, so I can act without being restricted by fate."
As Bai Mo spoke, she ripped off her mask. As for Siegfried, there was no need for her to hide anything, and besides, within the barrier created by Gretsch, she wasn't worried about the news leaking out.
"Thank you. As Kiana's father, I'm very happy that she has a friend like you."
