Quick Wear: Who said soft girls have to be obedient! biu!

The captain of the guards was ashamed. The search just now was too drastic and made a mess of the manor. Fortunately, Miss Anna had a good personality and did not blame them.

"Don't worry, Miss Anna. We won't bother you again if we can't find you."

He led his men straight upstairs and went first to the largest room, which was the bedroom of the Duke and Lady.

Catherine was trying on her new jewelry when she was startled by the sudden search and accidentally broke a gorgeous hair crown.

"Damn it! Who allowed you to enter my room!" Catherine was so angry that she jumped up and down, pointing at the guard's long nose and cursing.

The captain of the guards was afraid of Miss Anna, who brought a lot of taxes and assistance to Marquis Will, but he was not afraid of the bluffing Duchess. He ignored her and waved his hand: "Search!"

Catherine was extremely anxious and tried to stop them from touching her wardrobe, but it was in vain. Not only did the guards ignore her, but even her own daughter stood by with her arms folded and said nothing.

Soon, all the places in the house where people could hide were searched, but nothing was found.

The captain of the guards then saluted Catherine and said, "I'm sorry, Madam. I have official business to attend to. Please forgive me."

Catherine put her hands on her hips, her face flushed with anger. She ordered the maid to help her pick up all the clothes: "Wash them all for me. How can I wear them if they are left on the floor?"

"No need to wash, just hang it back." Gu Zhen glanced at Catherine indifferently, and the other party immediately shut up and dared not speak.

The maids were naturally relieved. They hung up all the clothes back and disappeared in a flash.

Catherine cried out "Wow" and fell onto the bed, feeling really pitiful as a duchess who didn't even have a say in this manor!

After Gu Zhen and the others had left, he took out a magic wand from his sleeve and gently pointed it at Catherine, and her crying stopped abruptly.

Catherine touched her throat and opened her mouth to scream in panic, but no sound came out.

Gu Zhen narrowed her eyes and quietly closed the door for her.

At this time, the guards had already opened Gu Zhen's door and were just waiting for Gu Zhen to speak.

Gu Zhen casually raised her hand and touched her hair, "Don't make it too messy, it's tiring to clean up."

The guards looked at each other and involuntarily slowed down their movements. They were all very wary of Miss Anna, who had killed the witch.

They searched the cupboards, every corner, and even under the bed, but found no signs of anyone hiding.

"Next room!"

Gu Zhen followed them and glanced under the bed when she went out. There was no wind and the bed was moving automatically, so no one noticed.

All the rooms on the second floor were searched, and finally Ella's bedroom was searched.

She sat by the window in her nightgown, ignoring the people coming in and only seeing Gu Zhen behind the crowd.

Ella saw Gu Zhen nod towards her lightly, and her mouth moved but no sound came out.

The room was empty and there wasn't much in it, so the guards searched it quickly. They found nothing and thought the thief had already escaped and must have left the city.

Gu Zhen sincerely suggested that they search again to make sure they didn't miss anything, but the captain of the guards was convinced of his own judgment and rode away with all the soldiers.

The manor suddenly became quiet, and under the orderly guidance of the housekeeper, everyone resumed their previous work.

Gu Zhen returned to her room and locked the door.

"Come out, it's safe." She took out the magic wand, her lips moved silently, a faint light appeared on the top of the magic wand, and then a tall figure emerged from under the bed.

Darren looked at his hands. "Oh my god, is this magic? When the captain of the guards lifted the bed sheet and looked down, my heart jumped out of my throat!"

Magic is amazing. There are many spells recorded in that book. Gu Zhen only memorized two of them last night, one that can make a person invisible, and the other that can make a person silent.

All very practical!

.

That night, the two of them sneaked into the greenhouse to practice magic.

With Darren as her sparring partner, Gu Zhen felt it was much more convenient, but she was not very skilled and often made Darren miserable.

Sometimes I couldn’t open my mouth for days, sometimes I was walking and suddenly my legs fell down, and sometimes I would cry and laugh for no reason.

After more than a month of torture, Gu Zhen finally took out his magic wand confidently and announced that he had become a "magician."

She looked at Darren's face. In fact, she had gotten used to it over the past few months and it didn't feel as shocking as it did when she first saw it.

"The book says that the spell the witch cast on you is a forbidden spell, a spell that causes harm. The scar has grown onto your face, so when I heal it, you might feel a lot of pain. Can you bear it?"

Darren had had enough of this face, and nodded immediately after hearing this: "I can, Miss Anna, please tie me up, I'm afraid I won't be able to control myself when it hurts, so as not to hurt you."

Seeing that he had prepared the hemp rope, Gu Zhen had to tie it around his hands and feet, but she didn't tie it too tight, otherwise he would hurt himself if he struggled.

Everything was ready. Gu Zhen first silently chanted a spell to form a small barrier-like thing around the greenhouse to prevent outsiders from spying.

Darren lay on the ground, a little nervous.

Gu Zhen touched his face. There were many scars on it. Pulling any one of them would cause the nerves in his face to twitch. If he pulled apart the scar, he could even see the pink flesh inside.

She sharpened her wand before looking at the book again, then she closed her eyes and pointed the magic wand at Darren's face.

After reciting a few words silently, the magic wand began to change color, and a light green light flew along the magic wand, finally converging into a line and flying into Darren's scar.

The green line drilled in and out of the scar, with tiny dots of light overflowing, making Darren look a little more weird.

Soon, Darren couldn't help but groan, and big drops of sweat oozed out of his forehead and fell onto the stone slab beside his cheek.

Darren's face felt like thousands of tiny bugs were gnawing at it, making it painful, numb and itchy. He wanted desperately to scratch himself, but his hands and feet were tied and he couldn't do anything. He twisted around in agony and even tried to hit the ground with his face.

Gu Zhen quickly held his face and said, "Be patient and don't create new scars!"

Darren was speechless and his face showed no color, but the bulging veins on his neck showed how much pain he was in.

Seeing him gritting his teeth and holding on, Gu Zhen had no choice but to hold his head in her arms: "Hold on a little longer, I can see that the scars are starting to fall off!"

Darren was encouraged and buried his breath in her palm. Gu Zhen's palm became wet in a short while, and she couldn't tell whether it was sweat or tears.

A tearing pain came over him, and Darren screamed in Gu Zhen's arms, his body twitching violently. He was already very strong, and now he had exploded with who knows how many times more strength, and he directly broke the hemp ropes on his hands and feet.

Gu Zhen couldn't hold him, and rolled to the ground with Darren. Just as she was about to push him away, Darren grabbed her wrist.

Darren lay on Gu Zhen, breathing heavily, sweat dripping down. Like a wild beast, he suddenly raised his eyes and looked at the prey under him.

Gu Zhen called softly, "Darren, I'm Anna."

Darren suddenly woke up and let go of Gu Zhen. Gu Zhen hugged him and gently comforted him on the back: "Don't be afraid, I won't leave."

Darren's heart suddenly became much calmer, and even the pain seemed to be relieved a lot.

It was unknown how long this torture lasted, until Darren thought he was about to die, but suddenly his face felt lighter and he could clearly feel something quickly leaving his face.

Darren didn't have any strength left and couldn't even speak to remind Gu Zhen. He closed his eyes weakly. Is it finally over?

Gu Zhen was still patting his back to comfort him when she noticed that Darren had quieted down. The person in her arms didn't move, and even his breathing was very weak.

"Hello, Darren, the Second Prince?"
