262~ Problematic Personal Maid?~ [Bonus Chapter]
"Old Chen, the examination results are out. Xu Hanhai died suddenly. We investigated his work situation, physical health, and interpersonal relationships before and after. It was malignant arrhythmia caused by long-term overti and exhaustion. He ultimately died from sudden cardiac death. It's been determined as a natural death."
"I got it."
In other words, Xu Hanhai's death, from beginning to end, was all due to excessive exhaustion?
After clarifying this point, Chen Ze felt sowhat uncomfortable inside.
As expected, those damn capitalists—not a single good thing among them!
After cursing a few tis under his breath, he went to open the door and let the Little Princess out.
"Then I'll be going first. Rember to call if there's anything."
"All right, thank you, Miss Mo!"
......
Before long, Chen Ze personally sent her to the villa entrance. After greeting her, he left.
"Princess, how do you plan to find Fei?"
"Just rely on the police officers. Otherwise, what other thod could there be?"
This city had surveillance everywhere. Especially near this villa, many surveillance caras that had originally been installed to investigate this villa's owner were now all connected to the police station.
If the Empress left through the main entrance, she would definitely be captured. They could just continuously follow the surveillance to find where the Empress ultimately stayed.
After listening to the Little Princess's explanation, Maid Xiao Xi also cald down considerably. At least her face no longer had that initial panic.
Although she had been trained as a royal maid, if it concerned her Princess's safety, she would still beco anxious.
"Princess, I think you can try manipulating the magic power in this necklace?"
"No. I still can't do it to that degree."
The Little Princess shook her head.
She had tried on the way back too. At most, she could only simply manipulate the flow of magic power. She couldn't even compress magic power into a mass and spray it out.
At this level, wanting to use it for self-defense was simply a pipe dream! Previously controlling magic power flow to make that pen float in mid-air was already the limit. Much less using it for other purposes, to try to find the Empress—this was fundantally unrealistic.
She didn't even know where this ability to see magic power and manipulate magic power ca from. Her body clearly couldn't store magic power either, right?
However, this was ultimately still a good thing, right?
"Sigh, let's just leave it at that. Wait for them to find Fei first......"
Only after finding Fei could she have greater operational space. Even if Fei hadn't recovered her mory, she could rely on her recollection of magic books she had read before to instill theory in Fei, bit by bit helping Fei beco a mage again.
Even if she was just a Mage Apprentice, it would be completely sufficient. For normal people in this world, obtaining firearms was still quite difficult.
As long as the Empress could enter the field, maybe with the Empress's terrifying talent, she could quickly surpass entry level and directly reach the mage level.
As for the Empress previously saying she didn't have much talent, she completely didn't believe that. How could soone with completely no magical talent directly reach the continental peak in a few years?
......
......
Ti passed in a flash, and several days had gone by. She had already finished eting with those big shots and generously shared her managent philosophy.
She knew that only this way could she maintain a mysterious identity in these people's hearts.
Right. Even when facing these upper-class society people, she had also disguised herself, disguising herself as a royal family mber from so country overseas.
However, she hadn't completely lied, or rather, what she said was originally the truth. After all, she truly was a royal family mber. Moreover, Maid Xiao Xi was also a maid who approached perfection in ordinary tis.
After earning their trust, she could rest easy without worry. She didn't need to worry about her identity problem. It was just that the Empress had never appeared and hadn't been found.
She had indeed co out through the main entrance, but after turning at a street corner, she vanished into thin air. She estimated the Empress had used magic to teleport away, or directly flew away. Only this kind of explanation made sense.
Moreover, at the scene, there were also traces of constructing magic.
"Princess......"
"Phew...... Xiao Xi, are you hiding sothing from ?"
"How could that be? Deceiving the royal family is a capital offense."
Maid Xiao Xi smiled with the corner of her mouth twitching.
"......"
The Little Princess sighed and didn't pursue it deeply.
She could sense that this little maid beside her had so problems. With an attitude of not using those you doubt and not doubting those you use, she hadn't paid too much attention. But recently, she had discovered more and more problems......
This Maid Xiao Xi before her seed sowhat different from the Maid Xiao Xi in her mory. Whether in behavior or certain personality aspects, there were so differences from mory. If she didn't usually pay relatively close attention, she probably wouldn't have discovered it.
But Maid Xiao Xi had accompanied her by her side for so long. Was she really an imposter?
She felt it was impossible. It was too absurd. If she was an imposter, what was the purpose of staying by her side? After she returned to modern tis, Xiao Xi also rembered all her preferences. Judging that Maid Xiao Xi was an imposter just based on so threads of clues was too hasty.
What she could judge was...... at the public security bureau that ti, Maid Xiao Xi had almost been unable to resist directly smashing the glass to forcibly rescue her. If it were the forr Maid Xiao Xi, she would absolutely only wait for the right mont to act, unless she was about to die imdiately.
Just on this point alone, it completely didn't conform to Maid Xiao Xi's past personality and action habits.
Precisely because they had spent ti together day and night, she could detect this abnormality!
"Xiao Xi, help brew a cup of black tea."
"All right."
"......"
After Maid Xiao Xi was sent away, the Little Princess gripped the crystal necklace at her chest, urging magic power to gather in her hand.
......
Before long, Maid Xiao Xi brewed a pot of black tea and brought it on a tray to the Little Princess's presence.
"Xiao Xi."
"Mm? Princess?"
"I found Fei."
"You found her!?"
"Mm, found her."
Receiving the Little Princess's affirmation, Maid Xiao Xi's pupils suddenly contracted, but very quickly returned to normal. Her expression hadn't even had ti to change because her internal state changed too fast.
But all of this was taken in by the Little Princess.
Although she was very unwilling to believe it, the Maid Xiao Xi before her truly had problems. Moreover, she had trusted her so much before this.
"Then are you departing now, Princess?"
"Mm, I'm departing now to find Fei and bring her back."
"Is that so...... I will properly protect Princess."
"No, Xiao Xi, you don't need to follow. Going by myself is sufficient."
Going by herself?
"That won't do! Princess, don't you know this is very dangerous? As Your personal maid, I must protect Your safety closely!"
"No need. There's no danger. Moreover, hasn't Fei already learned to use magic?"
"That still won't do! I must ensure the Princess's safety!"
She wouldn't allow the Little Princess to go out alone. She had to stay by her Princess's side to prevent any true accidents from occurring.
