Chapter 65

"I believe that as soon as the security personnel of the Adjudication Office open the opera house doors, they will see a sneaky Mondstadt girl right in front."

"That person is exactly Hayver, who just escaped from the wooden crate."

As soon as Su Bai finished speaking.

The security personnel immediately went out; soon, they caught Hayver at the scene.

And according to Hayver's description, his previous words were exactly the same as Navia's.

Finally, he added that he was afraid of facing judgment, so while inside the wooden crate, he used the opera house's underground passage to escape.

"I see."

"So it turns out that my lord Hydro Archon controls everything, which means..."

"Did my lord Hydro Archon know the entire development of the case from the very beginning?"

"This..."

What is this situation?

Furina, the Hydro Archon, has never been like this before.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

Hearing everyone's discussion, Furina cleared her throat: "The matter is just as the Pope said."

"I merely used Lin Ni's case to remind everyone."

"A trial is not a drama, not an opera; it is a very rigorous matter."

It's over!

Although I don't know what happened, I see that Su Bai's expression seems a bit off.

"Actually, I knew long ago that Lin Ni was innocent."

After saying everything, Furina forced a smile and looked at Lin Ni and the others: "Congratulations 3.3 you, Lin Ni, you can be cleared of the crime."

"This..."

Lin Ni and Lynette, the brother and sister, were at a loss.

The changes happening at the scene were too fast, and they couldn't react in time.

But, fortunately, he was not locked up in the Fortress of Meropide, so Lin Ni respectfully said: "Thank you, my lord Furina."

Alhaitham: "Don't you find it strange? Why does Furina know nothing about anything?"

Yoimiya: "I noticed it too. She clearly said the Oratrice Mecanique d'Analyse Cardinale was the power she entrusted, so how could she not understand?"

Kuki Shinobu: "I can't figure it out."

Dainsleif: "The people of Fontaine don't give explanations."

Arlecchino: "Just keep watching and you'll understand. However, with Mr. Su Bai present, Lady Furina has indeed avoided many grievous paths."

Bennett: "Is it possible that Furina is a fake Hydro Archon, and Neuvillette is the real Hydro Archon?"

Thoma: "The most likely scenario is that the Pope is the real Hydro Archon, and Furina is the fake one."

Kujou Sara: "Are you stupid? Su Bai is a Reincarnator; he doesn't belong to any specific country or person. If he wasn't in Fontaine, would Fontaine have no Hydro Archon?"

Raiden Ei: "Hmm..."

Yae Miko: "Wow! Ei, did you figure something out?"

Raiden Ei: "No, but my feeling is that Furina does not seem like a god."

Su Bai: "That is not necessarily true. Back then, the Anemo Archon declared himself the Anemo Archon in front of a nun, and no one believed him. I heard Lumine say that when she and Paimon were in Liyue back then, the Geo Archon held his own funeral; Lumine and he ran together the whole way, yet she still didn't realize Zhong Li was Morax."

Zhong Li: "Mr. Su Bai is not wrong."

Venti: "So..."

Su Bai: "Furina is so watery and lively; she must be the Hydro Archon."

Paimon: "Huh? Even if you make an excuse, can't you find a decent one?"

Furina: "....."

Chapter 52: Neuvillette's Determination; If You Don't Let Me Catch the Evidence, Even the Pope Will Be Sentenced

From the perspective of the Reincarnation Light Curtain.

In her past life, Furina did not look like a god in the slightest.

Although the Anemo Archon Barbatos seemed on the surface to do no proper work, upon learning that Dvalin was controlled by the Shenyuan Sect.

Venti at least stood up and led Lumine and the others to find a way to save Dvalin.

He was at least the leader of the rescue operation.

The Geo Archon Morax, after concealing his identity and faking his own death, retired.

But, the name of Morax resounded throughout the Teyvat Continent.

The claim that he held his own funeral must be Morax wanting to publicly wash his hands of Liyue's affairs.

But secretly, if Liyue truly had a crisis, Morax would not be able to ignore it.

As for the Electro Archon Raiden Ei of Inazuma, there is no need to say more.

With her focus on martial arts, no one would be idle enough to actively seek trouble with her.

As for the Lesser Lord Kusanali of Sumeru, there is not much information.

But judging from the other party's statements, she does not seem like someone neglecting her duties.

However, as the Hydro Archon of Fontaine, Furina spends her whole day watching operas and drama performances.

It seems she is quite enthusiastic about this matter herself.

Regarding Fontaine's political affairs, she truly does not manage them at all.

Not only that, when Furina is pointed out by others, she has very large emotional fluctuations.

And she is very cowardly.

From head to toe, not a shred of the majesty or utility befitting a deity could be seen.

Yae Miko: "I guess Su Bai from his past life wanted Furina to withdraw her power; perhaps he couldn't bear to see her every day... um... how should I put it..."

Paimon: "That cowardly look when being questioned?"

Yae Miko: "Hehe... the appearance of a show-off... I'm a bit embarrassed to say it outright here."

Paimon: "Miko, but you already said it."

Furina: "..."

Alice: "I think the little fox is afraid that once the screening ends, the person regains their memories, the wife complains to the husband and gets scolded, and Mr. Su Bai will come looking for trouble with the little fox."

Yae Miko: "Pfft... what can be done? Who made it so they have a reincarnator as a backer? By then, I can only lie flat and let Mr. Su Bai handle it."

Lisa: "???"

Kujou Sara: "Lady Miko, do not forget your identity. You are the High Priestess of the Grand Narukami Shrine in Inazuma, our Guuji. Please mind your influence; you represent the image of our Inazuma."

【Neuvillette stood upon the high judgment seat.】

【God 26's expression was solemn.】

【He knew all this was most likely Su Bai's doing.】

【However, he had overlooked that mysterious consciousness within the Oratrice Mecanique d'Analyse Cardinale.】

【"Was it an oversight, or..."】

【Doubt arose in Neuvillette's heart.】

【Based on his understanding of Su Bai, the other's strength should have been impossible to fail to sense that mysterious consciousness at the core of the Oratrice Mecanique d'Analyse Cardinale.】

【"A hundred years, and even someone like you has developed other thoughts in your heart?"】

【"Because of status, because of time..."】

【"The illusion that allows you to control all of Fontaine."】

【"Pope, I hope you can realize it sooner..."】

【"Otherwise..."】

【Neuvillette stared at Su Bai for a long time.】

【"Even if you have contributed much to Fontaine and have great merit, once you break the law, if there is evidence, I will not be lenient."】

【Havre confessed everything.】

【In Neuvillette's eyes, she was merely a puppet controlled by Su Bai.】

【Escaping through the tunnel, yet not thinking to leave Fontaine quickly, still lingering sneakily near the Opera Epiclese.】

【Thinking carefully, this does not fit the normal behavior of a thief.】
