Accidentally reincarnated into a magic book

Chapter 68 Doubt
After the blue serpent was wiped out, Leo and another uncle surrounded Ays.

It's a little bit bad. Judging from their conversation, the uncle named Luke seems to have always suspected that Ayes had colluded with the monsters that invaded the city.

Now, that uncle is going to pester Ays to interrogate him, but Ays is speechless and doesn't know what to do.

Fortunately, Leo sided with Ais.

After all, Leo is Ayes' boss and also the chief deacon of the city lord's family, but Su Le reckons that Leo is worried about the lack of manpower in the mansion and rushes back.

In short, under Leo's persuasion, Ays was temporarily released by the uncle, but I heard that the uncle will report this matter to the city lord, and there will be further interrogation later.

Su Le huddled in Ayes' pocket and listened to all this quietly.

Until Leo brought Ays back to the Santo's mansion, he didn't dare to show his face.

"So, what about the ingredients that we agreed to let you buy?" Leo remembered this when he returned to the back door of the mansion.

"Ingredients, ingredients were left behind when the big snake attacked." Ayes scratched his head in embarrassment, and did not complete the original task after a long time.

Leo also sighed helplessly.

"Forget it, I'll figure out a way to deal with the ingredients. Miss Rezeta is still waiting for you."

"Rezetta!"

Ais's eyes suddenly lit up when he heard Lezetta's name, and he wanted to get into the house to see the eldest lady.

"Tsk tsk tsk, young people nowadays, why are they so impatient and so obvious, even I can't stand it anymore." Su Leyou taunted leisurely. Of course, the words were full of the anger of a single dog.

Just when Ayes was about to enter the house, Leo grabbed Ayes' hand.

"and many more."

"What... what's wrong?"

"Ais, now I'm asking you in private as a friend, tell me honestly how you defeated that big snake."

Hearing Leo's serious question, Ays lowered his head timidly.

"magic……"

"what?"

"Hey, Ays, don't call me out at this time!" Su Le hurriedly communicated with Ays through a temporary contract.

Ayes pursed his lips tightly, shook his head and shouted, "Ayes, please stop asking!"

After saying that, he shook off Ayes' hand and ran into the mansion.

Su Le secretly looked at Leo's expression. He stood still and got farther and farther away from Ayes, but the man's eyes showed deep suspicion.

After all, Ayes is just a child who can't lie, so suspicion is inevitable.

It seems that for his own good, Su Le must leave Ayes as soon as possible to find another way of life.

Ayes walked through the atrium of the mansion through the back door and met Lezetta before entering the house.

Rezeta changed into a new red dress, which fit perfectly, and she looked like a cute little princess against the red dress.

Rezeta was accompanied by two maids. Those maids looked to be about eighteen or nineteen years old, and they were young and beautiful. Now they guarded Rezeta in the middle, which showed the dignity of the girl.

"Ayes, are you... injured?"

Lezetta couldn't help showing a worried expression when she saw Ayes's clothes were in tatters and covered in dust.

"Slightly, something happened." Ayes scratched his head, afraid that Rezeta would be too worried, so he hurriedly changed the subject.

"By the way, I heard that you are looking for me, Rezeta."

"Didn't I make an appointment with you yesterday?" Lezetta smiled sweetly and took Ais's hand.

"Come with me to the house."

"Rezeta..."

"what happened?"

"What happened to your hand?"

Ais was held by Lezetta's hand and did not move.

As if trying to cover up something, Rezeta quickly pulled down her lace cuffs to cover up what was there.

Su Le looked at Lezetta's wrist while she was covering up, and still saw what she wanted to hide.

Sure enough, there were some abnormalities - there was a rope-like bruise on Rezeta's wrist.

Because Leo said in the morning not to care about Rezeta's injury, the servants must have turned a blind eye to Rezeta's injury.

But only Su Le and Ais knew.

There were no such scars on Lezetta's hands yesterday.

Although she was chased by such a demon, Rezeta did bruise her hands and feet, and there were some bruises on her face, but there was absolutely no such unnatural slender scar.

The kid Ais looks stupid, but he didn't expect to be so attentive to Lezetta's affairs.

This time, Ais held Lezetta's wrist instead.

"pain……"

Rezeta let go of her hand in an instant, but Ayes pinched her wrist, and she showed a painful expression.

Ayes immediately let go of his hand when he heard Lezetta's call.

"H-I'm sorry, Lezetta, are you okay?"

"It's okay..." Rezeta's expression darkened.

She turned her back, looked back at Ayes, and sighed: "I'm going back to my room first."

"But, didn't you say you had something to do with me?"

"Let's talk about it next time."

Rezeta's words drifted into Ayes' ears like a thin cloud of smoke, and the girl walked into the depths of the mansion accompanied by the maid.

The rest of Ayes stood there alone in a daze, his face full of desolation.

"Master Magic Book..."

"what?"

"Did I do something wrong..."

"Of course, you hurt the girl, look, now Rezeta is angry."

"But the injury on Rezeta's hand..."

"Well, that injury does look a bit suspicious. I understand how you are worried about your girlfriend, but there are more important things to do now."

"No, no, Lezetta is not my girlfriend!"

Ayes denied it again, his face blushed, and he seemed extremely ashamed.

Today's young people are really dishonest, no matter what, Su Le doesn't want to entangle these issues with him anymore.

"Listen, Ayes, now you're in big trouble."

"big trouble?"

"It's too troublesome to talk about it specifically, but now you have to do one thing for me."

"What's the matter?"

"You need to help me find a book."

"Book?"

"That's right, try to find a book that is about the same size as mine, the size you can hold in your hand, the old cover, the one that looks like it has mysterious power."

"Can any book be accepted as long as it meets the requirements?"

"Correct."

"But... I have no money..."

"Stupid! Who said you have to spend money to buy it? This is the home of the city lord, right? Isn't there any place like a study?"

"You mean, you want me to steal things from the city lord?! No, no, how can I steal things."

"I'm doing this for your own good, and it's not stealing, I'm just borrowing it, and returning it when I'm done using it."

"If that's the case, maybe." Ais nodded and agreed.

"Very good." Su Le responded with satisfaction, "Then let's take it to the city lord's study."
