Chapter 46
Furina: “No, absolutely not, these are all things from the past life.”
Paimon: “But so far, there hasn’t been a big change between the past life and this life.”
Lumine: “She must have thought that way at the time.”
Yae Miko: “Pfft, no wonder Navia would say the Hydro Archon of Fontaine is cute; seeing her psychological activities, I think she is indeed very cute.”
Nilou: “The so-called arrogance and complacency are all illusions; the inner self of the Fontaine Hydro Archon is actually a very cute girl.”
Lisa: “No wonder Mr. Su Bai would become the Pope of Fontaine; he must have seen through Furina’s essence long ago.”
[Given that Lyney hid the facts, Lumine requested a one-hour break to re-discuss Lyney’s matter in detail.]
[After the court resumed, Lumine recounted the story of Lyney entering the opera house’s tunnel and then sneaking into the core of the Oratrice through the ventilation duct.]
[Because of this, Lyney did not hear the loud noise.]
[The evidence Furina used to accuse Lyney became the most favorable proof to clear his suspicion.]
[Furthermore, the guards of the Maison Gardiennage also found Primordial Seawater, which can dissolve people, in Cowell’s suitcase.]
[Hearing for the first time that humans could be dissolved, the audience in the opera house was in an uproar.]
[Fortunately, due to the trial, this matter did not continue to spread.]
[Just as Lumine was about to win this defense, the guards ran over to tell everyone at the scene that Primordial Seawater was also found in Lyney’s luggage.]
[The situation immediately shifted again.]
[A simple Fontaine trial left people from other nations in Teyvat dumbfounded.]
[Primordial Seawater can actually dissolve people?]
Arataki Itto: “What do you mean, people can be dissolved by water?”
Sangonomiya Kokomi: “This is the first time I’ve heard of such a thing.”
Neuvillette: “.....”
Jean: “The Iudex of Fontaine should know some inside information, right?”
Tianquan Ningguang: “I remember reports saying that the great flood in Fontaine some time ago appeared suddenly; could it be related to Primordial Seawater?”
Alhaitham: “They didn’t dissolve; I remember hearing that their prophecy was that the sea level would rise and people would dissolve in the seawater when I went to Fontaine.”
Torres: “The sea level rose, but people didn’t dissolve.”
Arlecchino: “Perhaps the prophecy has changed.”
Tartaglia: “Facing this kind of question, everyone in Fontaine has become mute; is there something being hidden from everyone?”
Arlecchino: “I am from Fontaine, but I don’t know what happened in the end either; anyway, people didn’t dissolve.”
Yae Miko: “Don’t be so stingy; anyway, with the exposure of the reincarnation, I think the secrets of your Fontaine cannot be hidden, so just say it early.”
·· ······Begging for flowers··· ···
Neuvillette: “Yes, I think we should wait for the exposure of the reincarnation and see how Su Bai, as a Reincarnator, deals with the prophecy of the past life.”
Venti: “Drink...”
[Having collected all the evidence, Furina was in high spirits.]
[“The course of events is that Lyney conspired with his assistant Cowell to kidnap the girl Halsey.”]
[“But because he was afraid that the matter would be exposed, Lyney killed Cowell and put him in a wooden box, used the water tank to crush him to death, and then used Primordial Seawater to dissolve Cowell.”]
[“I suppose this is the final act.”]
[Furina, with the joy of victory, called out to Neuvillette: “Sitting there, that noble, universally respected Iudex, in your opinion, can we now...”]
[Just as Furina wanted to order Neuvillette to start the verdict, Navia’s appearance attracted everyone’s attention.]
[“Everyone, listen, listen to me for a moment.”]
[“Arguing back and forth, I think everyone must be tired of listening.”]
[“Would everyone like to see another magic trick?”]
[“A magic trick that can make the girl who has already disappeared appear in front of us again.”]
[Eh?]
[Furina was instantly stunned.]
[In her deduction, Halsey had already been harmed by Lyney, how could she appear again.]
[What does this Navia from the Spina di Rosula want to do?]
[Furina looked calmly at the wooden box already prepared on the high platform.]
[Her heart was pounding with nervousness.]
[Once Halsey really appears, then she would have truly wronged Lyney.]
[As a god, wronging others would definitely have a great impact on her, right?]
[But Navia is not the kind of person who likes to mess around.]
[“This...”]
[“I wouldn’t have really wronged a good person, would I?”]
[Furina subconsciously looked at the opposite side.]
[Su Bai was still drinking tea.]
[“Hey, is there something wrong...”]
[“You still have the mood to drink tea now?”]
[“It’s Navia.” Paimon and Lumine looked at Navia happily.]
[Navia also cast a look of confidence at the two.]
[“Lumine, Paimon, I finally know who secretly took the macarons off the table when we were eating that day.”]
[“What? Could it be...” Paimon looked at the wooden box on the stage in surprise.]
Lumine: “Tsk, I didn’t expect the past life to reach this point; that means we won.”
Diluc: “So confident?”
Paimon: “That’s right, Miss Navia is not a person who messes around; she found the missing Halsey, broke the deadlock, and finally defeated the Hydro Archon, letting Mr. Lyney see the light of day again.”
Furina: “Hey, what light of day? It makes it sound like I deliberately made things difficult for Lyney.”
Navia: “Partner, don’t make a decision too early; Mr. Su Bai hasn’t made a move yet.”
Lumine: “Even if my Mr. Su Bai has extraordinary strength, since you, partner, have already reached this point, he couldn’t possibly let Halsey disappear in front of so many people.”
Clorinde: “That makes sense.”
[“I’m counting on you, Mr. Lyney...”]
[“Perform a wonderful magic trick for everyone once again.”]
[Navia gave Lyney a thumbs up.]
[“Don’t worry, the Spina di Rosula has already arranged everything for you who are troubled.”]
[After listening to Navia’s encouragement.]
[Lyney looked at the wooden box in the center of the stage.]
[Meles and Silver stood on the left and right sides of the wooden box, nodding confidently at Lyney.]
[“Snap,” Lyney snapped his fingers.]
[“Clang, clang...” Lynette followed closely with a cute prompt sound.]
[In an instant, the spotlight covered the wooden box.]
[After the wooden box was opened, everyone was shocked.]
[Inside, there was nothing.]
[“This is...”]
[Navia was the first to be stunned: “This is impossible, this...”]
[Meles and Silver, who had reacted, were also stunned: “Where is the person?”]
[“We clearly watched her walk in, where did the person go?”]
[Paimon and Lumine were also stunned.]
[The two looked at Navia in disbelief, saying they would help them deal with Furina together, could she be an undercover agent sent by the Pope?]
[That’s not right either; they were clearly unable to defend Lyney anymore, so Navia doing this seems like gilding the lily.]
[“What on earth happened?” Lumine couldn’t stop the horror in her heart.]
[“Eh? What’s going on?”]
