Collapse Iron: Today's mount is the female protagonist.

Page 14

So I really do have this talent, she's truly an extraordinary girl! She finally had the chance to shout out the line that had been buried in her heart for so long.

Gale! Surrender to me!!

"Um, Mei?" Kiana asked cautiously, looking at Mei, who seemed a little off and extremely excited.

"Ah, I'm sorry, I was a little out of line." Hearing the voice, Mei, who was awakened from her thoughts, blushed slightly and returned to her usual soft and gentle appearance.

Although she knew that bad people were plotting against her and that her situation was dangerous.

But when she learned that she was not an ordinary girl and that an incredibly powerful force was sealed within her, she couldn't help but feel excited.

To this, Qi Shi could only say...

You two are evenly matched.

“So, my father didn’t actually commit fraud or illegally transfer funds!” Mei said happily.

Her recent low mood, all the guilt and inferiority she felt, stemmed from family troubles. Her father was imprisoned for fraud, but now it seems he was framed, and that he was no ordinary man; he was a member of a hidden organization secretly protecting the world.

In that case, there is a compelling reason why the father is busy all day long. It's not that he doesn't want to spend time with her, but that he has a more important responsibility to carry out: protecting the world.

Mei was excited as she thought about it, and coupled with the long-suppressed longing in her heart, she unconsciously romanticized it.

Suddenly, the image of my father in my heart became much taller!

Hearing Qi Shi's reply, Kiana hesitated before quietly responding, "Um, Mei, the fraud part is indeed true; your father did illegally transfer a large sum of money."

Meiyi: "..."

The newly re-emerged image of the father shattered instantly, and his joy was extinguished.

She suddenly didn't want to talk about her father anymore.

Even though her father was a morally corrupt and flawed man, she would still rescue him.

Mei then asked about how to deal with that bad guy named Cocolia.

"So, what should we do? This Cocolia you mentioned seems to be targeting me. How can we thwart her plot?"

She was a little uneasy.

Despite her childish nature, Mei is well aware of her own abilities. She has no way of using that so-called power; she is just a high school student with excellent swordsmanship.

She was enough to deal with some thugs and hooligans, but she was no match for the villain who was trying to destroy the entire Changkong City.

What should we do then?

“I have a safe plan. We can send Mei out of Changkong City first to prevent her from being in danger. You also have a relative, your aunt, who can protect her for the time being.”

Qi Shi spoke up, and after hearing his words, Kiana immediately relayed them to Mei.

"There's a safe way now. I have a relative, my aunt..."

"Wait! My period?!" Kiana's voice suddenly rose eight octaves, her whole body filled with shock and dazedness.

Does she still have her period?

Chapter 20 Today, the two girls' idealized view of their father was shattered.

Mei: "...Kiana."

Didn't you say it yourself? Why are you so shocked?

Mei suddenly felt speechless.

But in the end, being a reasonable person, she still didn't press the other party for their secret.

Kiana, however, was already restless and was anxiously asking Qi Shi in her mind.

"Qi Shi, what did you just say?"

"I still have my period? What's going on?"

She had always thought she had no relatives left, but when she heard from Qi Shi that she still had an aunt, she couldn't contain her emotions.

Qi Shi replied, revealing part of her background.

"Yes, she is your mother's good friend, like a sister, your aunt, and also an old friend of your father."

Kiana was stunned when she heard the confirmed answer.

She pursed her lips, her surging emotions difficult to control.

Old Man Stinky suddenly disappeared. For so many years, she has been wandering, always alone wherever she goes, with no one caring and no one paying attention.

Occasionally, she would see a warm and loving family passing by, and sometimes she would yearn for that kind of warm life, but it was all just a fantasy. Those things didn't belong to her at all, and in the end, she could only accept living alone.

Now she suddenly learns from Qi Shi that she has an aunt.

It turns out, I really do have family...

Suddenly, Kiana felt a lump in her throat and tried her best to hide her embarrassment, not wanting anyone to see it.

"Why did my old man never tell me this?"

"Because your father is a wanted criminal, and your aunt is the one who has put a warrant for his arrest."

Kiana: "..."

The touching moment came to an abrupt end!

She was just complaining about Mei's father's moral depravity.

Unexpectedly, her own father turned out to be a wanted criminal!

In this light, the reason for his previous life of wandering around can now be found.

The image of her already unreliable father in her mind was now completely shattered.

Today, the two girls' idealized view of their father was shattered.

"But, my old man is wanted by the police, will my aunt still accept me? Won't she arrest me?"

But Kiana immediately noticed something amiss and asked him about it, looking annoyed.

As for the veracity of Qi Shi's claim about his relatives, she had no doubt whatsoever. Qi Shi had always been so capable, seemingly omniscient and omnipotent; she had grown accustomed to it.

It's as if there's nothing in the world that can stump them.

Moreover, Qi Shi would certainly not lie to himself.

"Don't worry, she will definitely be very happy. In fact, she has always been very dissatisfied with what your father has done, and she is even more furious about his irresponsible behavior of taking you on the run. She has always wanted to bring you back."

Qi Shi reassured her concerns.

However, his answer was simple, but in reality, the inside story was much more complicated.

"That's good!" Kiana felt relieved, and even secretly looked forward to it.

However, despite being somewhat emotional, Kiana didn't forget the formalities, and with Mei beside her, she informed her of the plans for the future.

"Mei, those people are after you, so you're in danger right now. We'll go see my aunt first and leave you with her. Then I'll come back and settle accounts with them!"

Kiana thought this method was quite 'safe'.

Once Mei is out of Changkong City, she won't have to worry about Mei's safety anymore and can teach those bad guys a lesson.

She was even quite pleased with herself, as it perfectly matched her brilliant ideas and suited her taste perfectly.

They never doubted the reliability of the method Qi Shi told them.

Could a solution that even Kiana could come up with and understand really solve Cocolia's covetousness? Is this truly his prepared countermeasure?

Qi Shi smiled but remained silent.

"Thank you, Kiana. I... I don't know how to thank you enough."

The two chatted for a while longer and settled on the plan, preparing to head to the train station the next day. Although Raiden Mei seemed somewhat worried, more concerned about Kiana's safety, her dependent personality led her to follow all the arrangements, though she was filled with self-blame.

Kiana was dragged into this crisis because of her, but now she can't help at all or do anything to help.

"Oh dear~ What are you saying, Mei? Of course I'll protect Mei from harm! Don't worry, I'm very strong!"

Kiana patted her chest again, revealing a cheerful smile.

Moreover, she still has Qi Shi. As long as she and Qi Shi are together, they can unleash Kiana's power a hundred times greater.

And, regarding the matter of escorting Mei out of Changkong City.

She also felt a sense of anticipation and an eagerness to see her aunt.

Sometimes when she was lonely, she would imagine the gentle image of her mother in her mind. Her aunt, who was a good friend of her mother, must also be a gentle, dignified and charming mature woman.

The two then chatted for a while longer.

"that……"

"Kiana."

After they finished talking, Mei hesitated, then looked at Kiana with a hopeful look in her eyes.

With so many things happening all at once, she naturally felt uneasy.

Looking forward to the girl's subsequent concern, she imagined chatting with her, just like that day, enjoying a moment of warmth, and gaining some psychological comfort.

"Huh? What's wrong, Mei?"

However, upon hearing the voice, Kiana looked over in confusion and asked.

There was no further news.

Looking into the other person's clear yet foolish eyes, Raiden Mei suddenly fell silent.

"No, it's nothing."

After dinner and a short rest, the two girls went back to their rooms to rest.

But in the middle of the night, Raiden Mei's door was suddenly pushed open, and Mei appeared, walking lightly to Kiana's door.

Carefully pushing open the door, I saw a fair figure bathed in moonlight.

"Want to talk?" When the other person saw her, they weren't angry at her for barging in uninvited. Instead, they gave her a warm and comforting smile.

"Okay, okay."

Mei blushed slightly as she agreed, as if she had encountered gentle sunlight, and her mood unconsciously calmed down.
