Chapter 306
Under the expectant but slightly confused gaze of the audience.
The pitch-black light screen, the story continues...
At this moment, a brand new poster comes into view, with Durandal as the protagonist.
On the poster, a line of striking text jumps onto the paper:
[The Eerie Knight Who Never Lies]
From this description, it is not difficult for us to glimpse her true face.
Durandal, this knight is known for being dignified, elegant, upright, and honest.
In her view, lying is just a futile act, and she never disdains to engage in such conduct.
However, on this ship, everyone is equal.
Even if Durandal has high moral character, the interrogation process must not be omitted.
Staring at this dignified and serious knight girl,
the Book of Fuxi begins her evaluation.
"Bianka Durandal Ataegina,
Captain of the Schicksal Valkyrie [Immortal Blades],
works seriously, is frank,
but, this kind of person who seems to have no doubts
is usually the most suspicious."
For some reason, the Book of Fuxi is always good at digging into the unknown side of others,
and uses this as a basis for judgment.
In her logic,
Rita, because she is labeled as a "bad woman,"
naturally became a major suspect;
and Durandal,
this knight who is impeccable in everyone's eyes,
is exceptionally suspicious because of her perfection.
The Book of Fuxi can always find all kinds of bizarre reasons to support her point of view.
Have to admit,
in terms of insight into human nature,
she indeed has extraordinary talent.
Outside the light screen of the Valkyrie dormitory at St. Freya Academy,
everyone watches the new interrogation target—Durandal,
however, the girls' interest does not seem high.
Because everyone knows clearly in their hearts,
the real criminal cannot be Durandal.
Her character is not the kind of person who would do sneaky things.
At this time, Kiana also expresses her point of view loudly:
"Eh? Is the next one to be interrogated Sister Durandal?
This feels a bit like a waste of time.
After all, the mastermind could be anyone,
but only Sister Durandal, she absolutely cannot be that person!"
Although she hasn't spent much time with her,
but after learning about the various things in the future,
Kiana seems to be particularly protective and trusting of this sister of hers.
Raiden Mei, standing beside Kiana,
also nods in agreement,
and continues: "Indeed, I also feel it's unlikely.
Durandal, as the most outstanding warrior in the Schicksal organization,
and also the knight with the highest moral character,
how could she be the real culprit hiding behind the scenes?"
In Raiden Mei's eyes,
she is full of respect and admiration for Durandal,
she firmly believes that Durandal is not the kind of person who would do such things.
This time, Bronya's view is completely different from Kiana and Raiden Mei.
She speaks expressionlessly and analyzes calmly:
"Hmm... although the possibility of Durandal doing such a thing is indeed very small,
but everyone's deep trust in her,
may be exactly what we tend to overlook.
Moreover,
Durandal herself may have been misled by something,
this situation cannot be completely ruled out."
Bronya seems to always be able to analyze problems from a more rational perspective.
To unveil the truth,
one still needs to wait patiently for the further development of the video.
Returning to the video,
in order to clear her own suspicion,
Durandal has to confess her whereabouts yesterday.
For this reason, she takes Fu Hua and the Book of Fuxi to the observation deck of the ship.
Here,
the thick glass windows reflect the vast starry sky outside,
and a telescope stands quietly to one side.
Without needing Durandal to explain too much,
Fu Hua and the Book of Fuxi seem to have understood her intention.
At this critical moment,
Durandal states:
"I spent the whole afternoon in the observation room for celestial observation,
these photos can prove it for me."
Saying that, she hands a stack of photos to Fu Hua and the Book of Fuxi.
Taking the photos handed over by Durandal,
Fu Hua and the Book of Fuxi begin to examine them seriously.
The scenes displayed by these photos,
are completely consistent with what Durandal stated.
Among them are some interesting scene captures,
and a special group photo—
Siegfried, Kiana, and Durandal standing together with bright smiles.
These photos undoubtedly provide a strong alibi for Durandal.
Fu Hua points to a few of the photos and asks:
"These photos were taken at that time, right?"
Durandal nods to confirm:
"Yes.
When the ship passed through the meteor shower,
there was a period of weightlessness,
fortunately it returned to normal quickly."
During the conversation,
the Book of Fuxi suddenly seems to realize a key detail.
She asks Durandal eagerly:
"Ah? Weightlessness?"
Fu Hua immediately takes over the conversation:
"Maybe the gravity system malfunctioned,
which is also related to this case."
Durandal looks at them with anticipation and says:
"This can prove my innocence, right?"
What is quite surprising is that,
in these situations,
Durandal should have been very calm.

She would usually cooperate actively with the other party,
show full confidence,
knowing that the real criminal could not be herself,
and firmly believing that she would not be treated unfairly because of this.
What is confusing is that,
the current Durandal seems too eager to get rid of her suspicion,
which is very different from her usual style and public image.
After hearing Durandal's line just now, the Book of Fuxi,
although she did not immediately grasp its deep meaning,
still subconsciously turned her head sharply,
staring at Durandal,
that gaze was deep and persistent.
This unusual stare,
made Durandal feel unprecedented discomfort.
Logically, if Durandal had nothing to hide,
she would face the Book of Fuxi's suspicious gaze calmly.
The facts seem not so simple—Durandal,
she seems to really have some unknown secret.
In the live broadcast room, the audience also keenly captured Durandal's abnormality.
[Kiana: em... although I know Sister Durandal is definitely not the mastermind. But this performance is really a bit strange. It doesn't look like her usual self...]
[Raiden Mei: I think so too, it's really a bit strange. Her words are too hurried... giving people a feeling of "there is no silver three hundred taels here"?]
[Otto: Haha~~ If the serious-natured Durandal could have a little prank, I actually think... she has grown up this way.]
[Durandal: I...]
[Rita: I firmly believe that Lady Durandal is not that kind of person. Of course... Rita also hopes that Lady Durandal will have some changes in the future and become cuter~~]
[March 7th: Haha, it seems the story is going to have a new twist~]
[Himeko: Maybe Durandal really hides some unknown secret.]
[Dr. MEI: Let's keep watching, her next explanation is very critical. Now it seems that the Book of Fuxi may have already noticed something.]
The video once again becomes the focus of everyone's attention.
Under the continuous and sharp gaze of the Book of Fuxi, Durandal's
expression gradually becomes stiff,
and the cold sweat on her forehead cannot be controlled from dripping.
She bites her lips tightly,
and her eyes begin to drift.
These subtle actions undoubtedly expose her inner panic.
And the Book of Fuxi also keenly captures these changes,
staring at Durandal more intently,
as if trying to read more information from her expression.
"Durandal!"
The Book of Fuxi questions Durandal with a loud voice,
"You shouldn't have anything else to hide, right?"
Durandal is instantly covered in sweat, stammering:
"........I........"
She seems unable to even organize a complete sentence.
Obviously, Durandal is not good at hiding secrets.
Her thoughts were seen through by the Book of Fuxi at once,
and she doesn't even know how to cover up her panic.
The Book of Fuxi shows a triumphant smile on her face, as if she has already won.
"Hehe~ I saw through you~
Quick! Confess!"
At this moment, the Book of Fuxi seems to have concluded that,
Durandal is the mastermind behind the [St. Freya] incident.
However, what is the truth?
