Yi Yi let out a long breath, showing her exhaustion from multitasking in the manor search and later controlling the man's actions.

After all, this is not as simple as making a water mirror; it is a very energy-consuming task, which is why Yi Yi's head is spinning in waves.

Fortunately, this gardener is now definitely an assassin with solid evidence who committed suicide out of fear of punishment!

As for why he kept the "read and burn" letters, it was to threaten the eldest prince.

Or perhaps he simply arrived at the scene after the incident and saw that Aldridge was already dead.

Or perhaps, after seeing the crime scene, he fabricated the story that he had killed Aldrich, intending to curry favor with the eldest prince.

It doesn't matter anymore!

After all, his outward pretense in this matter determined—

He'll just be a perfect scapegoat!

It wasn't for nothing that I went through all that trouble to find you, and then controlled you to go to the crime scene and the reception room.

Go in peace. In the original story, you were just cannon fodder who didn't even succeed and were killed. Now you have a role to play and are the ultimate cannon fodder who takes the blame for the male lead!

After controlling the gardener's suicide, Yi Yi calmed herself down, opened her eyes, and met Uma's bright, sparkling eyes.

"That person was found by Sister Yiyi, right! Uma used magic to see that he was an assassin who was ready to assassinate Prince Aldrich!"

Faced with the little girl's bright eyes, Yi Yi didn't know how to lie, so she just nodded and accepted all the little girl's guesses.

Seeing this, Uma's eyes shone even brighter. She happily stomped her feet on the floor inside the carriage, making so much noise that the coachman in front couldn't help but tap the window with his whip, which calmed Uma down.

"Sister Yiyi is so amazing! I was still thinking about how to prove my innocence, and she caught the murderer right away!"

Listening to Uma showering her with compliments, she reached out and patted her head, stopping her from continuing her barrage of compliments.

She stroked Uma's head, thinking: My silly girl~ Mommy just prevented you from being imprisoned in the future~

However, monitoring what happened on the king's side just now yielded some results.

That means potions don't seem to be that hard to get.

After all, the eldest prince's letter clearly mentioned that he had bought the potion that could change one's form.

Potions that are strictly forbidden by the church are still circulating in the market and can even be traded for money.

Does that mean that potions that can make a witch lose her magic are also available for purchase?

It seems we still need to keep a close eye on Adolf's actions.

Yi Yi stroked Uma's head, looked into her eyes, and secretly made up her mind.

-

The carriage first took Uma back to the church, and then threw Iyi down with it.

After saying goodbye to Uma, Yiyi slowly walked home. Meanwhile, she thought to herself, "That driver is so snobbish..."

Yi Yi walked slowly all the way to the street, where she saw Ai Yi standing at her door.

Just then, Ai turned her head and met her gaze.

Yi Yi was slightly taken aback, but Ai Yi immediately ran to Yi Yi, bent down, cupped her face, and looked her in the eye, asking, "Sister, are you alright? Were you harassed?"

Yi Yi pulled her face away from his large hand, then took his hand and comforted him, "No, no, how could they possibly make things difficult for me! Don't worry, it's all over, nothing will happen again."

Sure enough, half a month passed, and apart from the king quietly leaving the main city and returning to the castle, nothing else happened.

Clearly, since the fact that the gardener was the murderer of Aldrich was already a foolproof crime, the king could no longer suspect Uma and the others, and could only leave in a huff.

After dealing with this matter, as planned, Yiyi kept a close eye on Uma and Adolf.

What surprised her was that Uma and Adolf's relationship was very good, not just stable, but very good.

They might have a minor argument every three days and a major argument every five days, but they will make up quickly and even become very affectionate afterward.

It was perfectly normal; there was absolutely no indication that Adolf was about to turn evil.

Another day of secretly observing the young couple.

Yi Yi lay on her side on the bed, propping her head up with one hand and munching on an apple. In the water mirror, she watched Uma riding on Adolf's wolf body, playing by the lake.

I can't help but sigh: This body, which never feels hungry or full, seems to have been fed bags and bags of dog food during this time! She's so full she's about to burp.

"It's so strange... It's not just that they're being too normal in their sweetness..." Yi Yi murmured, "They're so sweet, but why do they have so little chemistry as a couple?"

Watching Uma use magic to create jets of water that danced and played with him, and then looking at Adolf, who had transformed into a wolf and was willingly being ridden by Uma.

I don't understand how they know each other so well, they're clearly a sweet and loving couple who've been together for a long time.

Yi Yi really couldn't understand...

Where is the villainous Adolf in all this?

Suddenly, Yi noticed something, her pupils contracted sharply, and her gaze was fixed on Adolf's shiny brown fur in the water mirror.

Is Adolf... a wolf-like creature?

Because of the small details she had forgotten over the years, Yi Yi finally remembered a moving CG image that had left a deep impression on her back then—

The moon and stars were few in the deep blue night sky.

The pale moonlight shone down, casting a hazy cloak over the girl dressed in a white saintly robe.

Beneath the girl was a lithe gray wolf.

His eyes, the same color as the night sky, stared straight ahead at the pairs of green-glowing eyes surrounding him in the darkness. The moonlight swirled around him in a milky mist, gilding his silver-gray fur with a silvery sheen.

In the blink of an eye, the gray wolf carried the girl in white on its back and rushed into the darkness, protecting each other as they fought their way out of the wolf pack.

This is a dynamic CG of Uma and Adolf from the game!

Yi Yi gasped.

"Wrong, all wrong! Wrong from the very beginning!" She sat up in terror, her mind racing so fast that her eyes couldn't find a fixed focus.

The water mirror, which had been magically condensed, reverted to ordinary water due to a lack of energy to maintain it, and splashed onto the floor with a splash.

The sound of water splashing on the floor startled Ai Yi next door. Ai Yi hurriedly pushed open Yi Yi's door and saw that Yi Yi looked frightened. She stumbled over and hugged her.

"What's wrong, sister? What happened? It's nothing, it's nothing, I'm here!..."

Ai hugged Yiyi and patted her back gently, just like she would when Yiyi woke up from a nightmare as a child.

Yi Yi slowly came to her senses in Ai Yi's arms, resting her chin on his shoulder. She caught a glimpse of something out of the corner of her eye, and then her gaze suddenly fixed on the back of Ai Yi's head, on the little gray braid...

“Aiyi… I remember… you’re the Grey Wolf, right…” Aiyi asked somewhat blankly.
