"I said, no need. Going by myself is sufficient."
"That won't do. As Your personal maid, I have a duty to ensure Your safety."
"This isn't a request. It's an order. You stay here properly. Going out by myself is enough."
"If something happens to Princess, how will I explain to His Majesty Gong?"
Moreover, His Majesty Gong also said that if the Princess wanted to do something dangerous, she had the authority to stop it, so......
"I apologize, Princess, but this is for Your safety."
Having said that, she pushed her Princess down onto the bed with one motion. From the pocket of her skirt, she pulled out a bundle of cotton rope and firmly bound the Little Princess's hands, ensuring that with the Little Princess's strength she couldn't break free and wouldn't feel pain. Then she also tied up both feet. Finally, she pulled out a section of rope and fixed it to the headboard.
This way, her Princess would have no way to leave no matter what.
"Xiao Xi! Untie me!"
"No. Since someone has already gone out to search for Fei, You should properly stay here and quietly wait for news."
She wouldn't let the Princess run around anymore.
"As expected, you're fundamentally not the Xiao Xi I know."
"You're also not the Princess I know."
Maid Xiao Xi stared into her eyes and said very seriously.
"......"
......
......
"Old Chen, that Miss Mo seems to not have come out for two days now. Only her maid goes out."
"Isn't this normal? Before returning from overseas, she was foreign nobility. Staying at home all day is very normal."
Moreover, she had been running around the past two days and was also very tired!
However, although there was already clear evidence proving that this Miss Mo had nothing to do with Xu Hanhai's death, and moreover Xu Hanhai died naturally, no matter what, he still felt there were problems.
This was the intuition of being the Criminal Police Brigade captain!
"Then what do you plan to do? Are you still going to visit?"
"Mm."
You know what? He really did plan to do just that.
It just so happened that he also had information about the person that Miss Mo wanted to find. He could bring it over at the same time.
"......"
The old station chief was silent for a while. He only patted his shoulder:
"You decide for yourself. As long as you think you're right, just don't go too far."
The rookie he had trained was good in every way, just too persistent.
"Mm, I know."
......
Knock knock knock…
Xiao Xi: "......"
She was just watching anime with her Princess. Why would someone come to the door at this time?
"Hello, Miss Mo. I'm Chen Ze. Can you please open the door?"
Maid Xiao Xi exchanged a glance with her Princess and sighed. She could only untie the bindings.
She knew that for this kind of shameful matter, her Princess wouldn't speak carelessly to outsiders. Her Princess still paid great attention to her external image.
Very quickly, she invited Chen Ze inside.
Chen Ze was momentarily stunned by the extremely luxurious interior decoration, but quickly came back to his senses.
"Miss Mo."
"Please sit...... Xiao Xi, pour Officer Chen a cup of tea."
Before long, two cups of steaming hot black tea were placed on the table.
Did this Miss Mo like drinking black tea?
"Please drink, Officer Chen. Also, what brings you to find me today?"
"I found traces of Miss Fei."
"Fei...... you're saying you found her? You're not lying to me?"
"Yes. We've already found her by checking surveillance one by one."
Hearing this, the Little Princess couldn't help but stand up.
"Where is she!?"
"In the last frame we could find in the surveillance, she was at an abandoned factory. Information about that factory and some other materials are all in this document bag."
Chen Ze handed the document bag he had been carrying with him to the Little Princess. The Little Princess couldn't wait to tear it open and look. Maid Xiao Xi beside her also stuck her head over.
"That abandoned factory, what's inside?"
What on earth could attract Fei to go inside there?
No matter whether the Empress had recovered her memory or not, anything that could attract the Empress over there absolutely wasn't simple.
"Not clear. That factory has already been abandoned for nearly ten years. However, from the name, Miss Mo, You should also know it was a new energy technology factory."
Although, after so long, even if there were still other containers storing energy inside, they would have already aged. The energy inside would have slowly dissipated with the passage of time, completely gone.
"New energy technology factory......"
"This was the first batch of new energy factories built in Pengcheng. Because the economic chain broke, it was forced to move to the neighboring city."
"However, at the time, it seemed they didn't have money to maintain those equipment. After changing industries, they couldn't use them. Moreover, they couldn't sell them either. Many things were directly left inside."
In other words, there was a lot of energy equipment inside?
She seemed to know why the Empress would be attracted there. If she remembered correctly, the Empress had a method that could transform other energy into magic power......
"This is bad! Must hurry over!"
"Miss Mo?"
"Can I trouble Officer Chen to drive me there?"
"All right."
Although he didn't know what the problem was, he still agreed. In any case, he had nothing to do this morning.
"Xiao Xi, let's go."
Very quickly, the two were driven by Chen Ze to the front of this abandoned factory.
The main gate was tightly locked. Most of the surrounding railings were also intact. It looked like there was no place to climb in. Even if she could climb, the Little Princess also didn't plan to do so.
These were all rusty railings. If she climbed up and accidentally got cut, she would still have to run to the hospital for a tetanus shot.
"I'll find someone to come unlock it."
"Too slow. No need...... Xiao Xi, smash it open!"
"Understood."
Receiving the order, Xiao Xi drew the sword from her waist. Immediately after, with one sword strike, she directly severed the iron lock.
Chen Ze: "......"
Holy crap! He had thought that the sword on this maid's body was just an unsharpened decoration. As a result, you're for real!?
He truly hadn't expected that a human could actually hold a sword and directly sever such a solid lock.
This was a violent little King Kong maid?
Swallowing his saliva, Chen Ze asked:
"You...... didn't report this, right?"
"Report? Report what?"
Chen Ze was briefly silent. However, thinking that both were returned from overseas, not knowing seemed normal?
Very quickly, the three entered the abandoned factory. After nearly ten years of devastation, the buildings inside the factory still hadn't become dangerous buildings. They were just covered with weeds.
If the Empress truly was inside here, where would she sleep at night? She wouldn't just find a pillar to lean against and sleep, right?
"Fei!? Fei!?"
She tried calling out twice. No one responded.
Well...... that made sense too. Since the Empress had chosen to hide over here, that meant there were matters she needed to hide from them. How could she possibly just jump out and directly meet them?
