Mischievous Lolita in the Doll

"Could it be that the girl is lying?" Elsa chuckled dryly.

If it really is Her Majesty the Queen's illegitimate daughter who caused the problem in the case I was handling, then perhaps my best outcome would be to atone with my death!

Chapter Thirty-Two: The Genius Little Mir

Meanwhile, the "little princess," whom everyone was worried about, was carefree and skipping along towards Eileen's house.

The girl ran away after seeing a group of police officers. She didn't want too many people to see her, and with so many police officers around, Xia Ye's safety must be guaranteed. If she didn't run away, would she really be waiting to be investigated by the police?

Halfway there, the girl suddenly realized something: what if she went to find Eileen now and asked her to cook for her, and Eileen brought out a plate of cabbage? That would be really bad.

Thinking of this, the girl stopped in her tracks, her face full of worry.

That's right! If I take the ingredients back and have Eileen cook them for me, then she won't have any reason to force me to eat cabbage! I'm such a genius!

The girl looked around. She had just arrived at Locke Street, and her eyes fell on the fish shop next door.

The girl skillfully scaled the wall to enter the fish shop. Her small size allowed her to easily enter the window that an adult could not possibly fit through. Although the slippers she was wearing made her movements more difficult, her skillful climbing ability was still enough for her to get inside.

The fish shop owner didn't seem to live in the shop, but he couldn't possibly take all his goods home, so you could clearly see many buckets of fish displayed inside.

The girl picked a blackfish that was neither too big nor too small. She didn't know what kind of fish it was, but she never needed to remember the types of food she ate; she just ate.

Mir didn't just take the fish and leave, even though the shop owner might not have noticed that someone was stealing fish even if she had taken it directly.

After she was taken away by Eileen because of the robbery three years ago, Eileen intensified her moral education in this area. Although the effect was not significant, Mir still considered herself a good girl, so she decided to leave some money for the fish shop owner.

Mir pulled out a 100-mira note and put it in the corner. She felt really great. This blackfish was definitely not worth 100 mira, and she had done the shopkeeper a favor by doing this.

However... I always feel that a banknote placed in the corner of the store is not easy to find. What if the store owner doesn't notice it? Wouldn't that be like stealing a fish and then throwing away a hundred meters? That won't do!

The girl tried putting the money in various places, but none of them felt quite right. It seemed she needed to put it in a conspicuous place, but there wasn't one in the fish shop...

Even the most conspicuous television set became less noticeable amidst the surrounding clutter.

Suddenly, the girl had a brilliant idea.

Since there's nothing particularly eye-catching, why not just create an eye-catching place ourselves? We're such geniuses!

Without thinking, the girl picked up a wooden stick much taller than herself from a corner and began smashing it against the television until it was completely destroyed.

Hmm, much more eye-catching now. I'm definitely a genius!

The girl nodded in satisfaction, placed the 100-meter fish she was holding on the mangled television set she had smeared with money, and then took a small bucket to transfer the fish she had her eye on into it.

Although she had switched to a smaller bucket, Mir's power was now only that of an ordinary little girl, and the girl's silly little brain had forgotten that she possessed magic and could use magic.

So although the girl could carry the small wooden bucket without much effort, it seemed quite difficult to climb over the wall while carrying it... (At this moment, Mir completely forgot the fact that he also liked to use magic to help himself when climbing over walls.)

So the girl decided not to climb over the wall; she planned to use the front gate instead!

The girl walked to the front door, which was the kind of lock that required a key to access from both the inside and outside—the type of lock the girl hated most.

She returned to the spot where she had smashed the television, picked up the wooden stick again, infused it with her magic, and swung it at the door lock!

"boom!"

The door lock was smashed, but the bolt seems to have broken off inside...

There's nothing we can do about that...

Mir had no choice but to do what she loved most—bang on the door.

"boom!"

"boom!"

"boom!"

Perhaps because of the recent murder in the neighborhood, the people living nearby dared not go out to investigate even though they could hear such disturbing noises, so the fish shop's door was smashed to pieces by Mill.

"Huh? Why don't we use magic?" The girl only thought of this after she had done all these things.

Then there's the matter of dealing with the magic. She didn't leak any magic here when she climbed over the wall, and she also made sure not to leave any fingerprints. However, when she smashed the door, Mir injected magic into the wooden stick. If the stick is left here, it will definitely be traced back to her through the magic... so it can't be left!

A basic concoction spell was cast on the wooden stick. This spell transforms an ordinary wooden object or something of similar strength into a firecracker. The power is only that of a regular firecracker, and its only effect is to make a loud noise. However, the advantage is that it does not leak magic power, making this spell perfect for this situation.

After casting the spell, Mir casually tossed the wooden stick, which hadn't changed its appearance but had actually become a firecracker, into the shop at the chicken farm next door.

"Snapped!"

There was a great commotion, but no one dared to go out.

Mir sensed something was wrong and fled with his small wooden bucket.

------

Also at the other end of Locke Street.

Now it wasn't just Xia Ye who was panicking; the others were also starting to panic.

“Summer Night, let me confirm again, did that little girl you met really say she had that surname?” Elsa tried her best to remain calm. “She must be lying, right? Right? She’s definitely lying!”

Xia Ye frowned. She didn't think the little guy would deceive her, but seeing the expressions of the people in front of her, she wasn't so sure.

"I don't know, but that little girl didn't seem to be showing off her surname, as if she didn't think there was anything wrong with it." Xia Ye thought for a moment, then felt a little annoyed:

"Why do you still have the leisure to ask this now? Isn't finding the culprit the most important thing right now? Do you only have the motivation to do things if you're sure that girl is a princess? Are ordinary girls not worth your attention?"

Xia Ye's angry rebuke woke everyone up. After calming themselves down, Elsa took out a communication crystal and clicked on a beacon: "Notify everyone that the culprit has appeared. Also, keep an eye out for a white-haired girl who looks about ten years old. She might be the culprit's target. If you find her, protect her immediately!"

Chapter Thirty-Three: Wrongful Conviction

Eileen's villa.

This time, the girl didn't stand on the small stool to ring the doorbell, since she was still carrying a small wooden bucket and couldn't be carried into the house by Eileen as usual.

"Open the door! You dare take my allowance? You dare open the door!"

Eileen's villa was located in a relatively remote area, so no nosy neighbors peeked out to check on her. However, the girl's verbal harassment still made Eileen a little impatient, and she opened the door with an impatient expression.

"So, are you hungry again?" Eileen asked, looking down at the girl while adjusting her waist.

The girl gave Eileen a pitiful look and nodded.

"Oh dear, it's my fault. I should have prepared some food for you."

Eileen touched her forehead, outwardly feigning impatience, but inwardly she was quite worried about the girl's appearance. Although the girl's abilities were much stronger than when she was a doll, she couldn't guarantee that nothing might go wrong, after all, the girl was a master at causing trouble.

"Come in, there are some cabbages at home..."

Eileen's voice stopped abruptly. Before she could say she would "torture" herself with cabbage, the girl raised the wooden bucket high so that Eileen could see the big black fish inside.

Eileen's expression instantly turned very serious. She took the girl's wooden bucket, placed it by the door, roughly pulled the girl inside, and locked the door.

"Mir, tell your mother the truth, did you steal this fish?"

This is a serious issue. Ever since witnessing the doll boy robbing a bank using his special abilities three years ago, Eileen has never relaxed her education of the girl in this regard. Although Eileen knows that this world is a dog-eat-dog world and that no one will reason with the girl once she leaves this country, she still has to instill the most basic values ​​in her.

This was clearly an ordinary grass carp, not some magical item. If it were a magical item, Eileen would at most check if it was dangerous and ask the girl how she got it, but she wouldn't question the girl so seriously. But ordinary items are different; she didn't want the girl to become a psychic who oppresses ordinary people.

Seeing how late it was, she didn't realize that the fish shop was still open for business.

The girl was so frightened by Eileen's serious expression that she couldn't speak, and she didn't answer Eileen's question.

"Answer me! Mir Lucasia!"

Eileen rarely called the girl by her full name. If she did, it meant Eileen was getting angry. Her emphasizing tone really frightened the girl, who stammered and couldn't speak, tears welling up in her eyes.

It's just a fish, and we paid for it, so why are you treating us like this?

The more the girl thought about it, the more wronged she felt.

"Waaaaaah~ Waaaaaah!!"

Seeing that the girl had started to cry, Eileen became a little flustered. She had always firmly believed that her child was a good child. Although she was a little naughty, her values ​​were still fine after her guidance. Well... at least she thought they were fine. Moreover, based on her understanding of the girl, if the girl really stole the fish, then the girl would try to come up with all sorts of excuses to fool her. And the girl was so silly that she couldn't think of any good excuses.

Instead of making excuses, the girl started crying. Seeing her aggrieved little face, Eileen knew she had wronged the girl and could only frantically try to comfort her.

"Okay, okay, Mommy didn't mean it, baby, don't cry~ Look, your face is all messed up from crying. Little Mir is a cute little princess~ If you cry, you won't be pretty anymore... How about Mommy makes you something delicious?"

Eileen hugged the girl and gently patted her back. Her soft voice was completely different from the stiff one she had used on Xia Ye. She seemed very experienced.

The girl was still sobbing a little, but at least she stopped crying. The little one trembled and hiccuped in Eileen's arms, and Eileen held her and comforted her for a while.

It has to be said that the girl is quite small. Holding her in your arms is no burden at all. Although she looks like a child of about ten years old in the other world, she would look like a seven or eight-year-old in reality. After all, modern children in the real world seem to have grown up eating fertilizer.

So Eileen could even stand up, pick up the girl, and gently rock her. The girl's mood gradually calmed down under Eileen's comforting touch. However, she didn't fall asleep in Eileen's arms; she was still hungry.

"Mommy... I'm hungry... Fish... Do you want... or... cabbage?"

The girl stammered as she expressed her desire to Eileen.

"Okay, Mommy will make it for you, but first, baby, tell Mommy where this fish came from?"

Eileen didn't make her tone serious again, but asked the question gently. She felt sorry for the girl who looked aggrieved just now.

"The fish shop... took... left... one hundred..."

The girl didn't speak very clearly, but Eileen still understood the general meaning.

"Silly child, this fish is worth at most twenty yuan."

Unaware of the truth, Eileen had no idea what the girls were doing in the fish shop.

"Wait, Mom will make you fish soup."

Eileen gently placed the girl on the sofa, kissed the girl's little face, then turned around, tied on her apron, picked up her small wooden bucket, and walked towards the kitchen.

The girl composed herself, turned on the TV, lay down on the sofa, and started watching.

------

Locke Street.

The group had already split up and searched the surrounding area. With their numerical advantage, they had searched almost half of Ur, but still found nothing.

"Damn it! Why can't I find it anywhere?!"

Elsa was in a bad mood. Although this was the worst time to panic, the serial killer was too arrogant. He had killed three people, one of whom was a policeman. Now, a girl who was suspected to be Her Majesty the Queen's illegitimate daughter might also be in his hands. This made it impossible for Elsa to calm down.

Without her even realizing it, her magical and psychic powers had increased slightly.

"Miss Elsa, please calm down. You must not panic at times like this."
