OMG! Tyrant's Pampered Baby Is a Valued Princess-Chapter 712: The Little Rascal Must Have Been Terrified
In the Xiuluo Guard headquarters.
Bai Zhi’er lay sprawled on the table, spiritless.
Her round, shimmering eyes stared at the plate of pastries before her, yet she couldn’t bring herself to eat.
These were specially prepared for her by Feng Fuce.
Normally, the little one would finish them in no time.
But today, Feng Fuce passed by twice and saw that she had only taken one bite.
Feng Fuce’s cold eyes darkened slightly.
The little rascal must have been terribly frightened.
Unbeknownst to him, Bai Zhi’er was silently crying in her heart—
After roasting the bird’s wings, she sprinkled a layer of cumin and white sesame on the sizzling grilled meat.
It was so delicious!
Thinking of this, the little one swallowed her saliva and buried her head in her arms, feeling wronged.
The night was deep, yet Bai Zhi’er remained at the Xiuluo Guard, waiting for A Ruo.
A Ruo, being the first witness, had to recount everything she had seen.
Bai Zhi’er, being a Princess, naturally wouldn’t be interrogated by the Xiuluo Guard.
At this moment, in the interrogation room, A Ruo sat in a chair while Lu Wang stood beside her, helping bandage her wounds.
The one in charge of questioning was the Xiu Luo Envoy, Lei Hu.
He glanced at Lu Wang before asking A Ruo, "Are you sure you didn’t see anything?"
A Ruo nodded repeatedly.
She frowned and said, "The Princess and I were chasing after the Princely Heir. When we reached the cliff, the Princely Heir almost jumped off! Luckily, I caught him in time."
Lu Wang interjected suddenly, "So your injury was caused at that moment?"
A Ruo nodded, "The situation was urgent then, and I didn’t think too much."
Lu Wang, with a slight tone of reproach, said, "You should take care of yourself before helping others; otherwise, it’s foolish."
A Ruo hung her head down.
Lei Hu cleared his throat, "Vice Envoy Lu, I still need to continue the interrogation."
Lu Wang responded, "Then please continue."
Lei Hu asked again, "You caught the Princely Heir, and then?"
A Ruo raised her head and said, "Then Princess Dewan fell from the bird’s claws, and as the Princely Heir saw his sister fall into the abyss, he was so terrified that he fainted immediately!"
"At that moment, the giant bird turned around and flew towards me and the Princess!"
A Ruo vividly described the scene, patting her chest as if still frightened.
"It was so scary, I... fainted, and when I woke up, I saw all of you."
As she spoke, the Xiuluo Guard clerk sitting beside Lei Hu took notes.
Lei Hu frowned in confusion.
This A Ruo, why is her account different from Princess Dewan’s?
Lei Hu confirmed repeatedly, "Miss A Ruo, are you sure you didn’t see it wrong? Was the giant bird flying towards you?"
A Ruo nodded, "Yes!"
Lei Hu wanted to pursue further, but Lu Wang became impatient first.
"Vice Envoy Lei, I think the account is very clear now. A Ruo is severely injured and needs to be taken to the Imperial Hospital for treatment."
"Moreover, the demon bird is already dead. The Marquis said that after the records are logged, the case can be closed."
Lei Hu had no choice but to relent, "Thank you for your cooperation, Miss A Ruo."
"It was nothing." A Ruo smiled.
She stood up and left with Lu Wang.
Lei Hu rubbed his chin, lost in thought.
He asked the clerk, "When we asked Princess Dewan earlier, didn’t she say that at the moment of falling into the abyss, a little fairy appeared, saved her, and bound the demon bird, right?"
The clerk reviewed Yuan Ruxin’s testimony and nodded in confirmation, "That’s right, Princess Dewan didn’t mention anything about the demon bird turning back and flying towards the Princess and her group."
Lei Hu scratched his forehead, "This is strange..." 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮
However, the clerk seemed indifferent.
"Perhaps they were too scared and remembered wrongly. You see, Princess Dewan is still trembling with fear; maybe she didn’t see the situation clearly at that time."
Lei Hu thought for a moment, feeling it was reasonable.
