"Thanks to you... you accidentally drank my beverage."

[Navia made a pointed remark.]

"Huh? What's this...?"

Paimon is puzzled.

"After we parted, on my way back alone to the Fontainebleau Rose Society's stronghold, I suddenly remembered what you said..."

"[This Fontaine tastes salty and isn't good at all.]"

"Fontaine should only be sweet, how could it be salty? And the color of that drink seems..."

Navia explained.

"I also felt something was off at the time, and I wasn't sure."

Kong pondered, realizing it was indeed the problem with that cup of Fontaine. So, the space they were able to enter earlier was also...

"You mean, the original fetal sea water was mixed into the Fengda beverage?"

Paimon reacted, surprised.

In the world of Genshin Impact, Navia: "I knew it."

"So, if you hadn't drunk my glass, I might already be..."

Navia's words were calm, but upon reflection, she still felt a lingering fear.

"You saved the boss of the Rose Thorn Society, and the Rose Thorn Society is preparing to award you its highest honor."

Miles said gratefully.

"Huh, really?!"

So what if I'm reincarnated as a spider? In this world, Spider Child: "Paimon has done a great service!"

In the world of Zhenhun Street, Xia Ling said, "I don't need the medal. Just give me Navia, thank you."

In the Zero Zone world, Qingyi said, "I can't give away Navia, but I have a beautiful girl here named Zhu Yuan. Would you like her? She's tall and has a lovely face."

In the Zero Zone world, Zhu Yuan exclaimed, "Senior! Are you really planning to send me away like this? What about our friendship?!"

While Paimon was overjoyed to hear about the medal, Sora was more concerned about something else.

"Luckily, Paimon and I aren't from Fontaine... otherwise, wouldn't we also be..."

Kong's eyes narrowed slightly. The other party's arrogant attitude and the danger he and Paimon were in no longer something he could ignore.

In the Genshin Impact world, Kong said, "So, Paimon, where are you from? That way, we can be prepared if there are any rumors about your hometown."

In the world of Genshin Impact, Paimon says, "Hmm~ I don't remember."

"I sent people to the Debord Hotel to look for clues, but those guys didn't leave a single trace."

"So I realized you might be in danger, so I brought people over immediately."

Navia marveled at how quickly the other person had moved.

"Are those guys even targeting us? All we did was defend Linni and help him get acquitted, and now we're completely dragged into this too."

Paimon said sullenly, and Kong nodded in agreement; this matter could not be left unresolved.

"After all, in their eyes, you ruined their proud plan and almost uncovered a fatal clue."

"Hey, by the way, did you guys experience any unusual reactions after drinking the seawater?"

[Navia asked with concern.]

"So, Kong didn't just faint for no reason, did he? He said he heard that voice calling '[Vasher]' again..."

"Oh right, I overheard a little bit about this too... Could this situation be related to the pregnancy fluid?"

Paimon reminisced.

"According to Lynette... hearing that sound is related to the perception of water elements."

[The author clarifies the relationship between the two.]

"So that means that drinking the water from the Primordial Sea of ​​Emptiness has the effect on people other than the Fengdan people... by increasing their perception of water elements?"

Paimon exclaimed in surprise.

In the Honkai Impact 3rd Railway World, Jiaoqiu says: "If we can find a way to cure the poisons in the world, they may become a good medicine."

"It doesn't sound like such a bad thing."

Navia was somewhat surprised; did the seawater from the fetus really have this effect?

"And... I've obtained new information."

"Intelligence? While you were unconscious?"

Paimon asked in surprise, and Sora nodded in agreement.

"The voice from the fountain belongs to one of the missing girls. [Vashe] witnessed this girl dissolving."

"Oh? That's indeed crucial intelligence..."

Navia was thinking.

[Afterwards, Sora told everyone what happened when he connected with the [Pure Water Spirit]'s consciousness.]

In the world of Zhenhun Street, Xia Ling said, "Hiss~ If there is consciousness after death, wouldn't the people of Fengdan be able to turn into water before they die and continue to live?"

In the world of "The Scum Villain's Self-Saving System," Shen Qingqiu exclaimed, "Goodness, so you don't even need to hold a funeral, huh? And then when you miss your family, you just grab a bottle and start chewing on it!"

"Your Majesty, have mercy on me!" Lu Xiaoyu exclaimed. "Let's not. What if I accidentally drink this... ouch!"

Quickly take my brother away from the world, Shi Fen: "It shouldn't have much of an impact. It seems that the previous space was quite large. The water should just be a medium, otherwise the girl's consciousness would have been scattered to who knows how many places at the converging living water source."

Take my brother away from the world! Shi Miao: "This isn't about whether it has any impact! I simply can't accept it psychologically!"

"Washe... I don't think I've ever heard of that name before, and he hasn't appeared in court as a witness recently..."

Navia recalls the details of recent cases, hoping to find clues about Vasher.

"However, since he witnessed the girl dissolving, it proves that he was at least at the [crime scene]."

"But he has never provided any information about the case. We only just learned that people can dissolve in primordial fetal water. Was he being threatened...?"

"If he were still alive..."

[Kong then considered an even worse scenario, but the hard-won clue couldn't just be left unexpected.]

[Afterwards, Navia thanked Sora and explained that they would continue their investigation.]

[Kong has also chosen to investigate alongside Navia and the others. He's not so easily bullied; anyone who dares to plot against him and Paimon would be making a huge mistake!]

"Miss Navia, even if you're happy, please compose yourself. You are the face of the Rose Society."

Seeing Navia grinning like a starving wolf after a long wait for its prey, Miles couldn't help but offer a reminder.

"Ahem... I'm being nosy. Why don't you all come back to the Rose Society's base in Fontaine with us? I'll arrange accommodations for you."

"There are still plans to discuss, and it would be best to deepen our understanding of each other as partners... Hmm, let's take it one step at a time."

Navia spoke at length, clearly delighted by Kong's addition.

So what if I was reincarnated as a spider in this world? Spider Child: "Hmm~ Navia's personality is perfect for being a reliable and caring older sister, the kind you can snuggle up in her arms and act cute!"

In the Genshin Impact world, Paimon exclaims, "Wow! Food and lodging included!"

In the Genshin Impact world, Kong says: "I feel sorry for Navia's wallet for a second; she even has to bring Paimon into her house. (Sad)"

My senior brother has a screw loose in his head. Dongfang Xianyun: "Provincial Flow: "About the incident of being taken home by the young lady after solving the case."

My eldest brother's brain is messed up, Yin Feixing: "That's not what I meant at all! And how come you woke up so quickly!"

Chapter 249 Whose Good Samaritan's Stronghold is in the Sewers!

"It's just ahead, but... let's check if anyone's following us first."

Soon, Sora and Paimon followed Navia to an underground passage, while Myles went ahead to greet everyone and arrange accommodations for Sora and Paimon.

The rest of the group continued downwards, but... this stronghold seemed quite different from what they had imagined?

Following the sewers downwards, a huge cavity was dug out at an unknown depth. The various facilities inside didn't appear cluttered, but rather gave off a sense of...desolation...

Various types of building materials were scattered everywhere, suggesting that a considerable portion of the construction still had room to proceed...

"Is this...this is the stronghold of your Thorn Rose Society? It's quite different from what I imagined..."

Looking around at the scene, Paimon glanced left and right, finally accepting the harsh reality.

In the world of "The Scum Villain's Self-Saving System," Shen Qingqiu exclaimed, "This sewer system is really deep! (Just kidding!)"

Zero World, Bell: "No wonder Uncle Miles's combat power is so high. Climbing up and down every day is quite a physical task."

Zero World, Zhe: "Rin should get some exercise too; she's been lacking in physical activity lately."

Honkai Impact 3rd Railway World, Hook: "Is this...is this the lower city of another world?! Wow! It's so clean, and there's such a big stream of water!"

In the world of Re:Zero -Starting Life in Another World-, Subaru Natsuki says, "Just looking at it gives me the feeling that we're about to reach the end of our rope..."

In the world of Zhenhun Street, Xia Ling said, "When I first saw Navia's outfit, I thought that the Rose of the North would be a magnificent building like a castle, no less impressive than the Opiclie Opera House. Well... I can only say that Fontaine is indeed a master of creating contrasts."

Miles saw that the others had also gone forward.

As for Kong and Paimon's accommodations, he has already made arrangements, stating that they will be the best rooms available at the Rosewood Club at the moment.

[Kong awkwardly thanked him, his hopes shattered as he looked at the wooden attic beside him, which clearly showed signs of repair.]

"Hey... the Rose Society's budget is a bit tight lately..."

"After all, we strictly prohibit any violent or unethical business activities within our organization, and often our economy comes from the support of our loyal followers."

Navia explained somewhat embarrassedly.

"Your Majesty, spare my life!" Lu Xiaoyu asked. "Hmm? Is there something wrong with the official institutions of Fontainebleau? That would cause the public to support a non-governmental organization so much?"

My senior brother has a screw loose in his head. Dongfang Xianyun: "? Why does this sound so much like the Beggars' Sect?"

In the world of Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils, Wang Jiantong said, "It seems to really be true..."

In the world of Zhenhun Street, Xia Ling said, "Huh~! Now that you mention it, I'm reminded of that security guard's accomplice in the crime. Fontaine is supposedly ruled by the 'God of Justice,' could it be that it also harbors the deepest darkness in secret...?"

In the world of 100,000 Cold Jokes, an anonymous user commented: "Tsk tsk tsk, this is so cunning! Can we talk about something more sensible? Please welcome the next comment!"

So what if I was reincarnated as a spider in this world? Spider Girl: "She really is! I'm going to cry! She's willing to treat us to a big meal!"

In the world of 100,000 Cold Jokes, an anonymous person exclaimed, "As expected of my Spider Sister! The style has suddenly become much more refined!"

In the world of The King's Avatar, Chen Guo asks, "Us?"

So what if I'm reincarnated as a spider? Spider Child: "Ah, we've been following Sora's perspective all along, so we subconsciously put ourselves in Sora's shoes, hehe."

"It sounds like everyone's had a tough time... but to be supported by people like this, it's still worth it, right?"

Paimon offered words of comfort.

"Actually, when the Rose Society was under my father's control a few years ago, our financial situation was much better than it is now. It's all my fault for not being capable enough."

[Navia's tone became somewhat downcast at this point.]

"Your father... was he the previous owner of the Rosebush Society? How did he..."

Paimon asked, puzzled.

"Miss Navia, let me explain to them..."

[Myles quickly said, seemingly not wanting Navia to recall too much.]

"No, there's no need for me to avoid this topic now. As their partner, this is something I want them to understand. Let me explain it myself."

Navia shook her head, declining Miles's offer. She thought... it was time for her to face all of this!

"My father's name was Carres, the very man now known in the streets as 'Injustice Carres.'"

"He was convicted of murdering his friend more than three years ago, but he refused to be tried and ultimately died in a duel."

"Your Majesty, spare my life!" Lu Xiaoyu exclaimed. "Wait! I remember that Clarinde and Navia's conversation before was something like that... No way..."

My Little Sister Can't Be This Cute World, Akagi Sena: "Healing pills! You healing pills need to be separated! My newly shipped couple is ruined just like that! Waaaaah~"

In a certain world where reborn yandere doting parents live, Liu Ruyan thinks: "Hmph! If something like that happened to me, I would definitely make the other person fall in love with me, and then dump her ruthlessly!"
