Genshin Impact: Learning makes me stronger
Chapter 251 Water Goddess Fernina
Passing by Lujingquan, many audiences have gathered at the door of Oprykle Opera House, and they are queuing up to wait for admission.
Some special patrol teams also bring police dogs to maintain order.
"Please keep quiet and don't make loud noises," a staff member reminded.
"You must make a reservation to enter the Oprykle Opera House and pick up your ticket. Each ticket has a corresponding seat number. Please maintain order and take the seat according to the ticket number."
"After entering and taking your seats, please pay attention to the relevant regulations and viewing etiquette."
When Su Xun and his group arrived at the theater entrance, they heard the staff's reminder.
"Ah? We need to make an appointment?" Paimeng couldn't help but mutter, "Then if we don't have an appointment, can we go in and see it?"
"Let's go ask the staff first." Su Xun said.
Having said that, he led everyone to the information desk at the entrance of the theater.
"Hello, do I need to make a reservation to watch the performance?" Su Xun asked politely.
"Yes, sir." The staff member replied with a smile, "Performances at the Oprykle Opera House require reservations two to three days in advance."
"Oh, so that's it..." Su Xun heard this and said helplessly, "This is our first time in Fontaine, so we didn't make an appointment in advance. Is there any other way to watch the performance this afternoon?"
The staff was not surprised by this situation and gave direct suggestions.
"If you don't have a reservation in advance, you can also buy tickets at the ticket window at the theater entrance before the show. However, the number of tickets is limited and the price may be higher than the reserved tickets."
"Okay, thank you for letting me know." Su Xun nodded, then said to everyone, "Then let's go to the ticket window and take a look."
With the means, Su Xun naturally bought the tickets easily, and then led everyone into the theater.
At this time, there were already many people sitting in the theater. Su Xun and others found their seats under the guidance of the staff.
"Huh... I finally found a seat." Paimon breathed a sigh of relief and said, "There are so many people here."
Everyone looked around the magnificent opera house and saw people in the audience either talking in low voices or quietly waiting for the trial to begin.
Overhead is an elaborately painted ceiling with frescoes depicting various mythological stories and classical figures.
Above the stage are the seats for the judge and the jury. They are placed high up opposite the audience seats, symbolizing the majesty and justice of the law.
On the high platform on the right is the exclusive seat of the water goddess Finina. The seat is empty, and it is obvious that the water goddess has not arrived yet.
As time passed, the lights in the theater gradually dimmed and the conversations among the audience slowly subsided.
The person presiding over the trial today was not Navilette, the highest judge of Fontaine, but the prosecutor's court under his command.
Navilette is usually very busy with his affairs, and unless the case is particularly serious, he usually does not take action personally.
Unlike Navilette who seldom appears, the water goddess Funina often appears in the Opicule Opera House.
Amid everyone's anticipation, the lights suddenly came on, illuminating the entire opera house.
Then, a judge in a black robe and two jurors took their seats.
"Silence!" The judge banged the gavel in his hand, "The trial is about to begin!"
"Now, please invite Lord Water God and Lady Funina to come in and witness the fairness of this trial."
As the judge finished speaking, the audience turned their eyes to the high platform on the right.
I saw a beautiful girl slowly walking up to the platform.
The girl has long silver-white hair with a hint of light blue, and her heterochromatic pupils are a clear and deep blue, like the stars in the sky.
She has a delicate and elegant face, and wears a dark blue hat, which is fashionable and elegant, giving people a noble feeling.
She wore a graceful blue and white long skirt inlaid with various gems, which sparkled and looked noble and luxurious.
She wore a pair of white shorts on her lower body, showing off her slender and white legs. On her feet were a pair of dark blue shoes with ribbons tied around her ankles, which looked very fashionable.
In addition, she held a scepter in her hand, which was also inlaid with gems, which complemented her clothes.
At this time, the water goddess Funina had a bright smile on her face, giving people a lively and bright feeling.
"Wow, is this the water goddess of Fontaine? She is so beautiful!" Paimon couldn't help but exclaim.
Miyuchiyo blinked, and a strange light flashed in her eyes.
Judging from appearance alone, this water god seems to be even more beautiful than her.
"Oh, my people, welcome to the Opikle Opera House. Today, we will witness a fair trial together. Rejoice, cheer, your great gods will be with you."
The voice of the water goddess Finina is as sweet as the sound of nature, but her movements are exaggerated, as if she is performing a show.
The people of Fontaine seemed to have gotten used to this atmosphere. They began to applaud and cheer enthusiastically. Some people even shouted excitedly to express their fanatical worship of the god.
Seeing this scene, Su Xun and others looked at each other with strange expressions.
Why does it feel like this water god doesn’t look like a god, but more like a big star?
Lei Dianzhen and Lei Dianying looked at Funina, both frowning slightly, as if they had seen something.
"Silence, silence!" After Funina sat down on the high chair, the judge banged the gavel again, signaling everyone to be quiet. "Now, let's start today's trial. First, please invite the defendant to the court."
As the judge spoke, a thin man was brought to the stage.
His steps seemed a little unsteady, but his eyes revealed a determination.
"Defendant, you stand here on suspicion of murder." The judge's voice echoed in the theater. "You have the right to remain silent, but every word you say will be used as evidence. Now, please state your position."
The defendant took a deep breath and then began to tell his story.
His voice was a little trembling at first, but as the narration progressed, it gradually became firm and powerful.
"I did have an argument with the victim, but it was only because of a disagreement at work. I never had the idea of killing him, let alone any actual action," the defendant argued.
The plaintiff then began to present evidence in an attempt to prove the defendant's guilt.
The witnesses took the stand one by one. Their testimonies had different emphases, but they all pointed to the defendant.
However, the defendant's defense attorney was not to be outdone. He cleverly questioned the credibility of the witnesses, pointed out the doubts in the evidence, and defended the defendant.
During the trial, Furninha kept smiling. She nodded and pondered from time to time, as if she was carefully weighing the arguments of each party.
