"I didn't do anything. I was just dragged into this. It's all Seele's fault. So please, kind and compassionate Miss Black Seele, do me a favor and let little Klein confirm Padofelis's location first, okay?"

Xia Yuan's innocence was tinged with a hint of grievance.

He never expected that Padophilia, having just arrived in the real world from the Paradise of the Past, would immediately rob a bank.

Just as Miss Blackie was still hesitating, Little Klein somehow managed to break free from her grasp. It seemed that she had learned some kind of skillful escape technique while being repeatedly lifted by her tail.

"Locating the city where Padofelis is located."

We expect to reach the nearest station to the city in about ten minutes. Due to the blizzard and considering the local conditions, to prevent Phyllis from getting lost, Mr. Xia Yuan, it might be necessary for you to go out and meet her.

Klein sat in the driver's seat, manipulating the screen in front of him.

"no problem."

Xia Yuan stood outside the driver's seat to ensure the safety of the road.

"You rascal... are you going outside to meet them?"

This gave Miss Blackie a bold idea: how dare he try to take advantage of Seele? She could take this opportunity to throw the bad guy off the train.

Miss Hei hope was secretly making her own little plans.

"Then I'll trouble you, Klein, to get there as quickly as possible. I'm worried that if Paddo gets captured by the Valkyrie forces of Schicksal, it will be troublesome."

At that time, he might have to take his boss Bronya to Schicksal to redeem people, but considering that he had just wanted to switch jobs from Bronya... the whole thing would be very troublesome to carry out.

Xia Yuan could already imagine Bronya's disdainful gaze upon him.

Just as Xia Yuan was about to leave.

The door to the driver's cab quietly opened, and Miss Hei hope, wrapped in a thick quilt, came to Xia Yuan's side.

"Cough cough... You bad guy, I'll go with you."

Looking at the girl's beaming smile, Xia Yuan had a feeling that she didn't have good intentions, but because he was worried about Padofelis's safety, he had no choice but to reluctantly agree to let Miss Heixi accompany him.

As the "Red Kite" train was about to arrive at the city's station...

Xia Yuan tentatively asked:

"Miss Kuroki, you're not planning to sneak the train away while I get off to pick up Pado, are you?"

"You rascal, do you think everyone is like you? Do you think I'm that kind of person? I only came here to keep you company out of kindness, so don't be ungrateful!"

Seeing that her plan had been exposed, Miss Hei hope resorted to sophistry.

The carriage doors slowly opened.

Before Xia Yuan could even react, Miss Hei hope was about to use her bare little feet, which were floating above the ground, to kick the other person's butt hard, to vent her anger for Xi'er and herself.

But unexpectedly.....

Xia Yuan suddenly shifted his body to the right, and Miss Hei hope's feet missed their mark, causing her to fall headfirst into the snowdrift outside the carriage.

"Pfft~"

Seeing Miss Hei hope peeking her little head out from the snowdrift, Xia Yuan couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"What are you laughing at, you bad guy? Shut up!"

"Give me a snowball!"

Enraged, Miss Hei hope reached out to the snowdrift in front of her, rolled it into a snowball, and threw it at Xia Yuan inside the carriage.

But unexpectedly...

None of the snowballs she threw hit Xia Yuan; instead, he caught them and tossed them onto her head. Looking at the white snow stains on her head, Miss Hei Xi lowered her head and covered her slightly reddened eyes with her hands.

The sound of what appeared to be a young girl crying slowly echoed in Xia Yuan's ears.

The sudden crying from the other party left Xia Yuan somewhat at a loss. Shouldn't this be considered legitimate self-defense?

But Xia Yuan usually hates seeing a young girl cry.

So~

Xia Yuan quickly ran to the snowdrift outside the carriage and came to Hei hope's side to comfort her:

"Miss Hei hope, please don't cry. I... I didn't mean to. It's cold outside. Shall we go into the carriage first?"

"Hmm... at least you have some conscience, you bad guy."

But this was undoubtedly a disguise on the part of the girl... Miss Hei hope was not as fragile as she seemed. Just as Xia Yuan was helping Hei hope into the carriage, the girl suddenly attacked, coming up behind Xia Yuan and pushing him down into the snow.

"Hmph, you scoundrel, you've fallen for it! You can just stay in this city and spend your time with your so-called partner. Forget about your trip to Mount Taixu!"

After saying that, Miss Hei hope threw her bedding to Xia Yuan.

The girl wasn't so heartless as to not even give him a blanket in this weather; she just wanted Xia Yuan to stay away from her and Xi'er and not to have any designs on Xi'er.

The girl waved to Xia Yuan in the snowdrift from inside the carriage and pressed a button on the side, forcibly closing the carriage. She then rushed to the driver's cab as quickly as possible.

"Strange... Why did the doors suddenly close in carriage number one, where Mr. Xia Yuan is located?"

Aren't we supposed to be welcoming Padofelis?

Just as Klein was about to reopen the train carriage, she vaguely heard a scraping sound behind her, like chains scraping against the floor. Before Klein could react, she was bound together by Miss Kuroshi's chains.

Then, the girl started the train.

Thanks to Miss Hei hope's series of actions, the "Red Kite" train departed from the station and sped off towards the distant Taixu Mountain, leaving Xia Yuan lying in the snowdrifts, gazing up at the snowflakes falling from the sky.

Now, all that's left is for Seele to control the increasingly unruly Miss Black Seele...

Just as Xia Yuan was trying to contact Xi'er inside the train, he found that he could not establish communication with her.

Communication failed...

Unable to establish communication request with target

Whether it was Ai-in, Bronya, Little Klein, or Xia Yuan, they tried several times but could not get in touch with each other. Just then... Miss Kuroki's real-time communication suddenly appeared in front of Xia Yuan's eyes.

The girl in the virtual projection crossed her arms, looking proud and smug.

It was just a pity for little Klein on the other side...

"You rascal, can't you get in touch with Bronya and Seele anymore? Hmph, don't waste your time, I've already blocked your communication with them."

The girl seemed happy that her plan had succeeded.

"Hey~ Why aren't you saying anything, you bad guy?"

Chapter 156 Gretchen doesn't want to get caught!

Xia Yuan lay in the snowdrift, hugging the quilt that Xi'er had given him; the girl's warmth still lingered on it.

A moment of silence followed.

"...Miss Kuroki, what do you want me to say? I've already been thrown from the carriage into the snowdrift, and I'm penniless. It won't be long before the snow will bury me."

"Perhaps... this parting will be forever. Goodbye, Miss Kuroki."

A hint of sadness was faintly revealed in Xia Yuan's eyes.

"You bastard, let me tell you, don't try to fool me with that!"

"If it's cold outside, go to the city and find a hotel with your business partner. I gave you all the money I've saved over the years yesterday; it should be enough for you two to live on for several months."

"...Miss Hei hope, I've left all the money you gave me in my room. If it's convenient, could you please turn around and come back here?"

"You scoundrel, do you think such tricks will work on me? Who uses cash these days? If you don't have any, we'll trade you goods. If all else fails, you can perform on the street or beg. In short, don't even think about fooling me!"

Xia Yuan covered his forehead.

When exactly did it begin?

It seems like Ms. Kuroki's intelligence is almost on par with Dr. Ai's; she's not so easy to fool anymore...

It seems he really will have to sleep on the streets now, or he'll have to go with Padofilis. Xia Yuan can already imagine the life of begging on the streets for three days straight, going hungry nine times a week.

"You bastard, now you know what happens when you try to mess with Seele!"

Now all we need to do is hide little Klein who's standing to the side...

No one would know that the bad guy was no longer on the train. Even if Seele and Bronya came looking for Xia Yuan later, he could just make up an excuse and fool everyone on the train.

"It's time to quietly dispose of this armed doll holding the syringe..."

Miss Kuroki thought to herself.

"Is Brother Xia Yuan here...? Sister Bai Bai Xi'er had Gretsch bring you some snacks~"

Just as Miss Hei hope was about to stuff little Klein into a low cabinet on the side, Gretchen, wearing a red hood and looking like Little Red Riding Hood, hopped in carrying a bamboo basket.

The two locked eyes.

Little Gretchen watched as Klein was bound by chains, witnessing firsthand the crime scene of Miss Blackie.

"Sister Heihei Seele, did Gretsch come at a bad time? Should Gretsch come later?"

"How could that be? Little Gretchen, you've come at just the right time. Come here, come to your sister and hand her the bamboo basket you're carrying. I'll give it to your brother Xia Yuan myself."

With a wolf tail appearing behind her, Miss Blackie, resembling a big gray wolf, bewitched little Gretsch.

But in little Greta's eyes~

Sister Hei hope had transformed into an evil big bad wolf, and her little feet on the floor instinctively retreated.

Seeing that Little Gretchen was about to back down, Miss Blackie suddenly leaped high into the air and charged towards her.

She absolutely must not let little Gretsch tell Seele what happened here; blame the other for seeing something a child shouldn't have seen at the wrong time and in the wrong place.

The two moved through the train carriages.

"Sister Seele with the big gray wolf tail, Gretchen didn't see anything, um... please stop chasing after Gretchen."

Gretchen covered the pointed ears on her red hood, closed her eyes, and hurriedly ran into the distance, but in her panic, little Gretchen became unusually adorable.

"If you don't run away, little Gretchen, I promise I won't chase after you, okay?"

"That's what Miss Kuroki, who has a wolf's tail, said."

She maintained her speed and swung the chain in her hand like a cowboy in the West, aiming it at Gretsch in front of her, but little Gretsch luckily dodged it.

"Waaaaah..."

Gretchen doesn't want to be caught by Seele. Xia Yuan, where are you now? Gretchen misses you so much.

Meanwhile, on the other side~

ah-

Who is thinking of me?

But Xia Yuan thought again that perhaps it was Miss Hei hope, who was smugly talking about him behind his back.

Lying in the snowdrift, Xia Yuan touched the tip of his nose. He didn't want to move at all. He was penniless, sleeping on the streets, and with snow falling all around him, there was nothing more miserable than this.

Just as Xia Yuan was embracing the blanket given to him by Miss Hei Xi and lost in thought in the snow...

Wearing her slightly oversized "canned food suit," Padofelis ran through the snow like a snowplow, heading towards the location marked by Xia Yuan to meet him.

The heavy snow brought by his running buried Xia Yuan.

"strangeness? "

"Isn't Xia Yuan's location right here? Could it be that the communication device Sister Ai Li gave us is broken again?"

Padoflis sat in the snowdrift, scratching her coat with her paw pads, feeling a little puzzled. Her position was exactly the same as Xia Yuan's, so why was he nowhere to be seen?

"Brother Xia Yuan, where are you?"

The can opened its mouth, and Padofelis's voice came from inside.

"Padoo, I'm here... You're just too heavy, uh~"

Xia Yuan's hand reached out with difficulty from under Padofilis, like an indomitable cry, or like a young man leaving his last words in the world.

"Brother Xia Yuan, how did you end up under us? Hang in there a little longer, we'll get you out soon."

Padofelis quickly got up and started digging at the snow on the ground.

When they saw Xia Yuan's face in the snowdrift...

It subconsciously sat on Xia Yuan's lap, its two huge cat paws shaking Xia Yuan's shoulders.

"Brother Xia Yuan, wake up, wake up!"
