Mr. Stegen: A Man with a Hidden Identity

Minor Injuries

Ludwig continued to walk gallantly down the corridor, until he came out of the main building which was the residence of Gunther Lienhart. Look at the thirty-two-year-old man straight ahead. Cold and expressionless. Ludwig continued walking, until he arrived at the barn that used to be his resting place. The owner of the honey brown eyes then entered.

When he was inside, Ludwig directly attached the body to the wall near the door. The handsome man's eyes moved warily, when he realized that someone was following in his footsteps.

Ludwig opened a little door to peek. His gaze was cautiously sweeping around which could be captured by the sense of sight. However, it was a pity because the conditions there were quite dark. Ludwig couldn't be sure who had been stalking him.

The copper-haired brunette man walked over to the haystack, which was used as a sleeping mat. Blood spots are still visible on the upholstery, although it has dried and slightly blackened.

However, Ludwig did not go there to check for bloodstains that indicated the loss of Lilia's virginity. He went into the barn because he had to pick up a backpack containing his clothes. Ludwig wore a black T-Shirt first, before deciding to exit the barn by stealth through the side door.

From inside the backpack, the man pulled out a beloved watch that he rarely wore during his escape. The watch turned out not only as a timepiece, but also a signal sender that Ludwig used to keep in touch with his men. He pressed a special button on the back of the watch, then waited for a while.

About ten minutes later, Ludwig again checked the screen of the watch which had changed completely. On the small screen it no longer brings up numbers that show the clock, but rather changes to a date. Ludwig was silent for a moment.

“15 June? That means one month from now,” Ludwig murmured. He intended to return to the Gunther residence. However, Ludwig's movements stopped, when he saw the shadow of two people who felt suspicious.

Ludwig fixed the backpack strap on the left shoulder. He stepped in full alert, approaching the direction the shadow appeared in. Ludwig just wanted to ascertain whether the owner of the two shadows was a farm worker or not.

The German man stood up and looked around. However, he did not find anyone there, until suddenly his body almost fell due to a hard blow from behind.

“Damn it!” Ludwig Ogat. He immediately turned around, as a knife was pointed at him and nearly injured his back neck. Ludwig used a backpack removed from his shoulder as a shield. He let the front of the bag containing his clothes be scratched to shreds.

“Who are you?” ludwig's wrath was full of emphasis.

However, the two strangers did not answer. They continued to attack Ludwig without pause, as if they did not want to give the handsome man a chance to take a swing.

Fortunately, Ludwig did not find it difficult despite having to face two people at once. Including, when one of the intruders managed to hold both arms.

Ludwig raised his body with both legs straight forward. He immediately lunged hard at the man before him. After the man fell down, Ludwig bowed. He lifted the man behind him, until they fell with the opponent lying on the ground.

Ludwig who also fell down, immediately used his elbow. He hit the opponent's chest as hard as possible, until it sounded quite loud screeches.

The noise generated from the fight earlier, had made the workers on guard duty that night immediately come over. They aimed the flashlight at the newly standing Ludwig. “Hey! Who are you?” exclaimed one of the two men, who was on guard duty and roving around the farm.

Feeling that things were not on their side, the two intruders rushed to escape. Meanwhile, the two guards immediately chased after them, regardless of Ludwig who fortunately was fine.

Ludwig grabbed the backpack lying on the ground. He stood up for a while, while again circulating his gaze around. Ludwig felt that someone was watching him from somewhere. However, he could not be sure clearly.

With gallant steps, Ludwig walked down the dimly lit corridor. However, the sturdy-looking man was instantly stunned, as his hearing caught the pace of someone who was getting closer. Instantly, Ludwig turned around with his hands ready to attack opponents behind.

“You haven't slept?” Gunther's voice made Ludwig resist the attack, which he was ready to launch. “Where to?” ask the middle-aged man again. He stood before Ludwig, staring fixedly at the son-in-law who looked shabby. “What happened, Heinz?” Gunther asked again.

“I just got back from the barn,” replied Ludwig. As usual, he spoke without exaggerated expression.

Gunther's getting closer. The owner of the farm squinted his eyes, when he saw a torn wound on the corner of the daughter-in-law's lips. “How did you get that wound?” tanyanya.

Ludwig touched the corner of the lip that was still bleeding. He shook his head faintly. “It's just a small wound,” the answer is short.

“Do you fight with someone?” ask Gunther again, as if to interrogate Ludwig.

Ludwig was silent for a moment, before answering the question of the man who had become his father-in-law. “There are two intruders who broke into your farm, Sir,” Ludwig said flatly.

“Includers?” repeat Gunther with a look of disbelief. The middle-aged man immediately shook his head. “Cannot be!” his objection.

“My farm is equipped with a fairly advanced security system. After all, there were two guards going around the farm, to simply ensure safety. How could the intruders get in here?” Gunther refuted Ludwig's words. He wasn't sure what the son-in-law said.

“Just ask the two guards on duty tonight. I see, they're after those intruders.” Ludwig nodded faintly, then turned around. He intended to go back to the room.

“You faced those intruders alone?” ask Gunther, who managed to get Ludwig to stop the move. “It's hard to believe if that's the case. I'm getting curious. Who are you exactly?”

Ludwig did not turn around immediately. Luckily, at that moment Lilia appeared with her long hair that was slightly disheveled. He came out in pajamas.

“I'm looking for you,” said Lilia. He was surprised instead of playing, when he saw the wound on the corner of Ludwig's lips. “Gosh! You why? Come!”

Without saying anything more, Lilia pulled Ludwig's hand, bringing the handsome man into the room. “Sit down,” tell him while forcing Ludwig to sit at the end of the bed. Meanwhile, he immediately picked up the P3K box. “What happened?” lilia asked as she cleaned the wound near her husband's lips.

“It's okay. It's just a small wound,” Ludwig replied slowly.

“The slightest injury feels like it still hurts,” reply Lilia. He put the medicine on the corner of Ludwig's lips, which had been cleared of bloodstains. “I hope, father has nothing to do with this,” said Lilia suddenly.

Ludwig did not respond immediately. He looked closely at his wife's beautiful face from a very close distance. “Mr Gunther? What's wrong with him?” ask Ludwig full of probes.

Lilia shook her head with a gentle smile, having finished her task of treating Ludwig. He passed to another part of the room, accompanied by a curious gaze from Ludwig.
