Can the sadness that magic cannot take away be offset by love?
Chapter 113 Recent Past (2)
At 7143:7 a.m. on July 21, 9, Ernest was buried among documents and reports in the study of the heir to the Ramirez family. Lucius was calculating some data on the side. Suddenly, the door of the study was opened. Ring.
The two raised their heads at the same time and looked at each other.
Lucius walked over silently and opened the door.
As expected, it was Alexia's geometry teacher who came. Ernest and Lucius had been mentally prepared just now, but at this time, their faces still looked bad.
The female teacher, who was still holding a textbook, measuring ruler, paper and pen in her hands, had her hair tied up high and wore a pair of glasses. Her face was a typical oval face with a pointed chin. She was slim and well-dressed. Her demeanor was also very dignified. Even though she was in a really bad mood at the moment, she did not forget to greet the two of them politely:
"Mr. Ernest, Mr. Lucius."
There will be no one guarding the door of the study at close range, but there are quite a few guards patrolling the entire courtyard, and there are people on duty at all the courtyard doors. Normally, outsiders will not be allowed in unless there is nothing wrong.
But Alexia's teachers are a special case.
In front of the calm-faced Ernest and the slightly raised eyebrows of Lucius, Ms. Meave complained to them for an unknown number of times:
"Miss Alexia skipped class again. There are several exams tomorrow and she hasn't reviewed them at all - Miss Tina said she was going to the video arcade she went to last time."
Miss Tina is the maid who takes close care of Alexia. She is very young and plays well with Alexia.
It was obvious that Alexia's two brothers knew which house "the house they went to last time" was. Lucius turned to look at Ernest and said leisurely:
"That's the video arcade that Levin Asceptin said yesterday that he was going to take his brother to this morning."
Ernest sneered.
It turned out that I was going to play with the little boy.
"Since Levin Asceptin is here, you can go this time."
Lucius's tone was very gloating, but not to Ernest, but to Alexia.
Every time Ernest went to arrest someone, Alexia would cry for a long time. Sometimes she didn't even dare to cry. But after Ernest left, she turned around and grabbed his sleeve as he passed by. He cried and beat.
Unlike him, if he went to arrest someone, Alexia would only scold him for a long time after being brought back by his collar, and how could she cry.
"Okay, I'll be back soon."
Ernest put down the documents in his hand and walked in without packing anything, forming a blue water curtain in mid-air.
Lucius shook his head and turned around to see Ms. Meev, whose face had returned to calmness. She smiled so brightly that she showed her white teeth:
"...Ms. Miff, let me ask the kitchen to prepare some pastries for you first? Do you like the osmanthus cake from last time or...?"
Ms. Meave politely declined:
"Thank you for your kindness, but I've eaten too many pastries in a while."
Alexia has skipped too many classes during this time, especially geometry classes. Lucius knows very well that Ms. Meve has eaten more pastries here than he has eaten after living here for more than ten years. There are more.
Lucius said without changing his expression:
"I heard that there are several new litters of rabbits in the south courtyard, and many of the previous baby rabbits have grown fur."
Ms. Meve's expression softened visibly:
"The weather has been cooler recently, which may be just right for them to breed... The South Campus is a bit far from the classroom. I will go there when I have time."
Lucius breathed a sigh of relief.

Aecilia witnessed the tragic situation in the arcade where little Ascetin came in and was taken home to do his homework without even touching any equipment. She curled up her lips without concealing it.
She walked out of the door leisurely dragging a sack of dolls, heading back to the hotel.
When she reached a corner, she looked up and met Ernest's eyes, who had just walked out of the spatial water curtain.
The long black hair, amber irises, and space magic matched those in the information. She was very sure that the person in front of her was Ernest.
But she doesn't know him yet.
thought Aecilia.
But Ernest, who was thought to be passing by her next, suddenly stopped in front of her and nodded to her calmly as a sign of courtesy.
Aecilia:?
Do they know each other?
Or had Ernest already collected information about her and could recognize her at a glance?
The worst case scenario is that they have already met, but she doesn't remember.
one way or another……
Aecilia nodded to him as well.
…No matter what, let’s run first.
After a brief greeting, she continued walking forward.
Ernest stepped aside, looked at her for a while, and after she walked out a few steps calmly, he called her from behind:
"Hold on."
Ethelia paused.
There were footsteps behind her, and it was Ernest who was slowly walking towards her.
A shadow belonging to the person behind her was cast in front of her, and Aecilia turned to look at him without speaking.
After getting closer, she could clearly smell the faint scent of books on his body, which was very similar to the smell she smelled in front of the bookshelves in Lawrence's old library. They both had the same sense of age and decayed wood, but Ennis Te also smelled a lot more of newly printed paper and ink than the old library. It was usually fine, but if she smelled this smell when she was motion sick, she would vomit violently.
But the last time she got car sick was before she was eight years old. She hasn't been in a car since she was eight years old. She didn't know if she would get dizzy again, but she was subconsciously disgusted by the smell.
To others, this smell might represent something bookish, elegant, etc... But to her, it was just a smell that would make her vomit.
At this moment, from body to heart, she wished she could be eight hundred meters away from Ernest Ramirez.
He didn't make any move, he just kept staring into her eyes. It wasn't until she was staring at those crystal clear but as silent as dead eyes that her heart trembled, and then he spoke softly:
"Did you see a little girl with black hair and golden eyes? There were maybe two boys with green eyes next to her."
Aecilia quickly matched the person he was talking about with the information in the document. She thought about it and said:
"I only saw two green-eyed ones walking together in the arcade city over there, but the older one took the younger one home to do her homework. I didn't see the little girl you mentioned."
Ernest nodded, said nothing more, and began to stare at her quietly again.
Aecilia: This person must be sick.
She wanted to turn around and leave, but just thinking about it, she moved her feet subconsciously, and was surprised to find that she could no longer move her feet.
She didn't even notice when he moved his hands.
