Honkai Impact: Grandma Pine Sparrow is still chasing me!

Chapter 351 Qiong: I am an alien, not your son!

"Honey……"

In the room where Himeko's house originally belonged to Sora but now belonged to Seele, Sora's gentle and considerate girlfriend Mei walked up with a sweet smile. In Sora's gradually widening eyes, whose mind was a complete mess, Mei slowly brought her tender red lips closer.

"Mei? How did we get here? Weren't you in the infirmary? Oh right, I just clearly..."

“Honey, let’s not talk about these things.”

Mei covered Sora's mouth with her index finger.

"I want a kiss, right now, right here."

"Here? But what if Seele...?"

But Mei refused to change her plans no matter what. Looking at his girlfriend throwing herself into his arms, Sora scratched his head.

Oh well! I don't really understand what's going on, but it's my girlfriend's request! So I'll just kiss her!

Sora decided to cooperate with Mei and slowly brought her small mouth closer.

Then he regretted it.

Because the Mei in front of me suddenly became blurry the moment we embraced, and then turned into the appearance of a mad god—where was the lightning Mei? There was just a Martian god wearing Mei's clothes, with purple vertical pupils and green light in his eyes!

"Danheng, will you kiss me? I... I'm so happy!"

"Le...Leera?"

Oh no, we've fallen for their trap!

Qiong instinctively tried to push the guy away, throwing punches at Leiera's face repeatedly—but it was no use! For some reason, his punches would miss before hitting Leiera.

"Since we're already planning to kiss, let's just become one! You know, everyone will eventually abandon me and leave me, but you're different, because you're not human—"

"Hey, hey, hey, how am I not human?!"

Even a Star Core Spirit shouldn't be expelled from humanity!

With Mei/Kiana of the End's gentle smile and her uniquely fiery gaze, Leiera used a power that Sora couldn't comprehend to render his legs immobile.

Ultimately, the only ones who can accompany us on our journey will be each other, won't they?

Frozen in place, Qiong stared wide-eyed in terror, frantically shaking her head and waving her hands.

"No, no, Leiera! You can't do this! There are plenty of fish in the sea, why be hung up on this gray-haired guy? Or, how about I introduce you to Nahera's relative, the Dragon Lord of Wisdom, or the Undying Uncle Point Knife, so you can become friends? Hey! If you touch me again, I won't be polite!"

Leera paid no heed to Sora's powerless threat—or rather, she was completely unconcerned about Sora's resistance—and the shadows emanating from her arms that were wrapped around Sora crept up her back.

"Come on, Danheng, let's be together... No matter how much you resist, you can never get rid of me!"

Enraged by Reyella, Sora glared and pulled out his prized baseball bat.

"I've told you so many times, I don't use that name! Rules are for—"

Boom!

"Ouch! That hurts!"

Just as Qiong was about to swing his bat, he was suddenly struck hard on the forehead, and then everything went black. All the dark shadows of Reyera vanished into thin air.

--------------

"Qiong, are you alright?"

As soon as Qiong opened her eyes, she saw Siegfried and Theresa standing around her bed, looking worried.

Qiong was still a little dazed, and subconsciously raised her hand to touch her forehead—hmm, it hurts a little.

"Except for my mind being a little confused, my forehead hurting a bit, and my heart being a little panicked, everything else is fine."

Siegfried & Theresa: ...

"Theresa, you seem to have gone too far."

Siegfried coughed lightly and nudged Theresa with his elbow. Theresa felt quite aggrieved by Siegfried's accusation.

"I can't subdue him without using force... I can't exactly use Judas on him, can I?"

"Wait! Did I just hear something that could kill me?"

Hearing the two white-haired men utter chilling words, Qiong immediately sat up in bed—only now did he realize he was in Theresa's room. Looking around, Qiong took in Theresa's collection... and as expected, it was all Homu.

There's also a bunny pajama set.

"Xiao Qiong, don't get agitated!"

Siegfried quickly grabbed Dome's shoulder and glared at Theresa.

"You get some rest! Uncle will teach your aunt a lesson later! But the main reason is that you were unconscious after coming out of there, and then suddenly pulled out a baseball bat and went berserk, which is why your aunt—"

"Wait, whose period is it?"

Qiong, completely bewildered, quickly interrupted Siegfried and then jumped off the bed despite his attempts to stop her.

"Hey sir, you don't actually think I'm Kiana..."

Startled by Reira and Siegfried's actions, Sora regained her senses slightly—no, she shouldn't know about clones. Considering the need to avoid being questioned too much, Sora thought for a moment and reorganized her thoughts.

"You don't actually think I'm your illegitimate child from when you had an affair when you were young, do you?"

Qiong looked at Siegfried with a helpless expression, while Siegfried gave an awkward smile.

"Of course not! Oh, I'll be blunt! Child, although you might find it hard to accept, all the signs indicate that you are actually Kiana's—"

"Stop! I'm not from the Kaslana family!"

Qiong sighed and rubbed his forehead. Was it really true? He didn't want to suddenly have another father for no reason.

Fine, I'm coming clean!

"Uncle Siegfried, listen to me!"

"Yes, I'm listening."

Qiong took a deep breath and decided to explain a little: if he didn't explain, things might get complicated.

"Let me be frank! I'm not actually from Earth, I'm an alien!"

"what?"

Siegfried and Theresa looked at each other, and a word simultaneously came to mind.

Side effects of reviewing Stigmata memories.

"Aliens? What aliens from outer space?"

After a brief exchange of glances, Theresa and Siegfried reached a silent consensus: the child had been triggered by the last fearful memory of the Stigmata and was about to hit people indiscriminately. He was awake now, but not fully sober. At this time, they couldn't go against him!

"Um... they probably don't have a home planet, right? They're just aliens who live on the Star Train."

"Why a train instead of a spaceship..."

Siegfried and Theresa were even more convinced that Qiong had started talking nonsense: Star Train? You added your own name "Qiong" into it, didn't you?

"Xiao Qiong, do you mean you come from a distant planet with advanced technology that can build spaceships that can traverse the universe, and you came here in one of them, right?"

Seeing Siegfried's coaxing-like attitude, Qiong was full of suspicion: Did he not believe her? But she still had to explain a few things. Believe it or not is up to you, but don't treat him like a son!

"It's a train! As for how it got here... well, I don't know either?"

"understood."

Siegfried nodded. Pure nonsense, he hadn't even made it up properly.

Even if you just made up a story about some space race that crash-landed on Earth in an escape pod after their spaceship malfunctioned, and then met Kiana?

"Uncle, you don't believe me, right?"

Qiong had a bit of a headache. If Siegfried didn't believe her, he would still treat her like his son... It seemed she would have to come up with some evidence.

It's not about producing evidence that he's not Kaslana; once the Stigmata are activated, he can't clear his name even if he jumps into the Yellow River! It's about producing "evidence that he's not Siegfried's son"—the Star Core is definitely out of the question, his destiny in the solar system is unlucky, and the shadow of Mars is even more likely to bring disaster... so all that's left is witness testimony.

I'm sorry, Uncle Yang.

"You can ask Uncle Yang, he can vouch for me. We've been through several worlds together, everything I'm saying is true! Believe it or not, I could never be your son!"

Having said all that, Qiong left the room and closed the door behind her—according to the plan, she would first ask Old Yang to replicate Dream Heart, and then solve the problem… By the way, is Silver Wolf unable to make interstellar long-distance calls because he owes money on his phone bill?

Qiong strode out, but in Siegfried and Theresa's eyes, Qiong was just mentally confused and unable to face reality, so she had to make a clumsy lie and flee in a sorry state.

Watching Qiong's departing figure, Siegfried didn't chase after her but sighed: He was still too hasty.

"Theresa, it's my fault. I'm afraid we need to find a psychologist to examine him this time... Theresa?"

"Star Train..."

Siegfried looked at Theresa, who was frowning and seemed to be thinking about something.

"Theresa, are you listening? Hello, Headmistress!"

Siegfried waved his hand in front of Theresa's eyes.

"I'm telling you about that child's psychological problems! Also, if Durandal really is Kiana, shouldn't we take action?"

"Siegfried, wait a moment."

Theresa's voice was a little hurried. She walked to the bedside and pulled out an old comic book that hadn't yet been pulverized into quark-level copies and had Walter's signature.

"Houmu...The Great Adventure? Houmu vs. Pam? Walter drew this for kids, why are you showing it to me?"

Siegfried raised an eyebrow; he didn't understand.

"Look behind you!"

Theresa quickly flipped to a page. Her finger pointed to a picture of a steam train traveling through space. The train disintegrated, reassembled, transformed, and merged, and the merged giant Pam became the giant Super Star God Train Warrior Pam's armor to fight against the Great Demon King Houmu.

"Look at this, the Star Train! This kid has definitely read comics and is just trying to fool us!"

Siegfried nodded, acknowledging Theresa's statement.

“However, his mental state is indeed… But Theresa, taking him to the hospital won’t do. How about we invite a psychologist in plainclothes?”

Theresa waved her hand.

"Why make it so complicated? Don't worry, our teacher Maria from St. Freya is a professional when it comes to psychological issues! As for the fact that Durandal should be Kiana..."

Theresa suddenly felt that things were in a difficult position.

Leaving aside the simple hurdle of Otto recognizing her as a relative, Siegfried's absence wasn't just from her amnesiac childhood, but also from the construction of her entire emotional world. To Siegfried, she was his blood-related daughter. But to Durandal, what was he as her father? What if, upon seeing Kiana, she saw Siegfried as merely a biological father who provided half of her genetic material and found a substitute, and then, in a show of loyalty, sent him to Schicksal Prison?

The difficulty is never just about acknowledging blood ties! Qiong has already proven (Qiong: I'm not!) that even with overwhelming evidence, children who can't accept it may still use the excuse of being aliens to avoid their true feelings.

How do you communicate with a child who has already learned not to need their parents and who is already a powerful Valkyrie with their own independent social network?

Theresa scratched her head frantically; she couldn't figure it out.

"Ugh! That bastard! Once this is over, I'm going to smash him into the ground a hundred times! A hundred times!"

Seeing Theresa's reaction, Siegfried fell silent. He quietly pulled a yellowed photograph from his clothes and ran his fingertips over the smiling faces of the family of three.

She should still be carrying out Otto's mission, right?

"How about we go ask Himeko first?"

After thinking for a long time, Theresa still offered a suggestion.
