Butterfly Xiaoyue of fairy couple's love

Chapter 957 Theft Case

The little demon who was in charge of the Zangshu Pavilion looked at the stunned look of the princess from the demon world, and came to her with a bowed body cautiously.

"Your Highness, due to the origin of the stories spread in the demon world, there are many types and different versions. Therefore, it is inevitable that a larger bookshelf will be needed to collect them."

The corners of Xiaoyue's mouth twitched in embarrassment, and she pointed to the top of the cabinet and said.

"The building is so high, can you get it?"

The little demon continued to speak respectfully.

"Princess, you are worrying too much. As long as you want to do something, just shout at the bookcase, and I guarantee that you will see the result you want."

"Shout to... the bookcase?"

Xiaoyue was afraid that she might have heard it wrong, so she tried to confirm it again.

"Really...do you want to do this?"

Xiao Yao nodded resolutely, pointed to the bookcase in front of her, and showed Xiaoyue a demonstration.

"His Royal Highness wants to see the books on the upper level."

As soon as the little demon finished speaking, the upper layer of the bookcase in front of her suddenly protruded and then slowly slid down the top until it stopped in front of Xiaoyue.

Xiaoyue looked at the books parked in front of her in disbelief, she didn't expect the Zangshu Pavilion in the demon world to be so unique.

She came back to her senses, turned around and asked the little demon.

"How long have you been working in Zangshu Pavilion?"

"Each of us takes turns on duty, usually one night a day. Your Royal Highness, do you have any questions?"

The little demon nodded and answered truthfully, but there was some hesitation in his thoughts.

"No more, it's just... Did you notice anything unusual when you were on duty? Or is there something wrong with the bookshelves here?"

Xiaoyue looked around and did not find any damage to the bookcase.She lowered her eyes to look at the servant standing beside her, and found that he had a troubled expression on his face, as if he was hiding something.

"what happened to you?"

The little demon was startled, and while dodging his eyes, he immediately lifted up his clothes and knelt down.

"Your Highness, the little one is guilty. Please, Your Highness, see that the little one confesses the crime truthfully, and spare the little one's life."

"What are you guilty of?"

Xiaoyue frowned, looking solemnly at the trembling servant in front of her.

"Tell me, what crime have you committed?"

"Actually, this incident is not only small, but also happened to those comrades who changed shifts with small ones."

Xiao Yao looked nervously at the face of the woman in front of him from time to time, for fear that she would kill him in a fit of anger.

Xiaoyue knew what he was thinking about, and never thought of punishing him.

"Just say it outright, I won't blame you, and I won't kill you."

The little demon was overjoyed when he heard that he was relieved, and told all about what happened to him.

"The thing is like this. Every time those of us on duty are late at night, we always fall asleep for no reason. If it's just ordinary lethargy, it doesn't matter. However, when we woke up early in the morning, we found that the profession of practicing strange arts The books are always missing a few pages every now and then. Originally, I wanted to tell His Highness the Second Highness, but I was afraid of causing the crime of beheading, so I didn’t say it. But a little discovery, recently, the number of missing pages in the books is getting more and more Many, I'm not stupid if I continue like this, I'm sure I won't be able to hide it for long, so I'm only bold enough to say everything today."

Xiaoyue narrowed her eyes, seeing what he said, it was like an ordinary case of theft and abandonment.

"You say that, what do you want to express."

"If such a thing happened because of a little carelessness, I can't say anything. But this kind of thing has not only happened to me, but also other people have the same experience. There must be something wrong with it. Besides, my subordinates Although the Tao is still shallow, it is not enough to keep awake and let oneself fall asleep, and there are signs that this matter is not simple."

The little demon said with serious words, looked at the person in front of him with hope, and only hoped that he would not live such a life of fear in the future.

"Therefore, I implore your Highness to investigate clearly!"
