Genshin Impact: Learning makes me stronger
Chapter 252 Strange Water God
However, as the trial progressed, Su Xun began to have doubts about the water god's behavior and had some new opinions in his mind.
This god seems to be very fond of performance and makes some exaggerated remarks from time to time.
During the trial, she had been emphasizing her status as a god, enjoying the cheers and praises of her people, and therefore cared a lot about the reactions of the onlookers.
In order to look her best when people see her for the first time, she would pose in a fixed position for a long time in the VIP seats.
She becomes proud and complacent when she is noticed, and becomes depressed and frustrated when no one notices her.
She doesn't feel like a majestic and steady god, but more like a girl who longs for attention.
Su Xun thought secretly.
But he didn't think much about it, after all, every god has his own personality and characteristics.
The trial continues and the debate between the two sides becomes increasingly heated.
The defendant's defense attorney presented some strong evidence in an attempt to prove the defendant's innocence.
The plaintiff insisted that the defendant was guilty and asked the judge to sentence him to a severe sentence.
Time passed quickly during the heated debate between the two sides.
In a blink of an eye, the trial had been going on for more than two hours. At this time, the judge struck the gavel and announced a temporary recess.
"Today's trial ends here. This court will conduct an in-depth investigation and analysis of the evidence provided by both parties and will reopen the trial on another day," said the judge.
The defendant breathed a sigh of relief after hearing the judge's words.
He knew he still had a chance to defend himself, but the plaintiffs were somewhat dissatisfied and believed that the judge should make a decision on the spot.
After the recess, the audience stood up and left their seats, discussing the trial that had just taken place and walking out of the theater.
Su Xun and his group followed the crowd out of the theater. They planned to find a place to eat something and then continue their tour in Fontainebleau.
"This trial is really exciting!" Paimon said, "It's really like an interesting drama performance. No wonder the people of Fontaine like to watch it so much."
"Yes." Yingmei nodded slightly, and then said: "But I think the water god's behavior is a bit strange. She looks more like she is performing rather than truly participating in the trial process."
"Indeed, and she seems to be deliberately showing off her identity as a god." Miyu Chiyo said thoughtfully.
"Eh? Really? I don't think it's strange. Aren't all gods like this?" Kurumi shook her head and said, "In my opinion, this water god is very friendly, and her interactions with her people are also very interesting."
"Maybe..." Yingmei smiled noncommittally, then said: "But I am more concerned about the outcome of the trial."
"Me too." Paimon said, "I think the defendant may have been wrongly accused. I hope the judge can hear the case fairly."
"This is none of our business. We are just spectators. Let the outcome of the trial be decided by the judge and the law." Su Xun said.
"It's already noon, aren't we going to have a meal? This is our first time in Fontaine, so we must try the local specialties."
"Ah! That's right! Let's go eat delicious food!" Paimon excitedly agreed when he heard that he was going to taste delicious food.
So, after leaving the Opéracle Opera House, the group walked along the streets looking for a specialty restaurant in Fontaine.
Although it is not the main city, there are still various shops on both sides of the streets on Ilie Island, ranging from traditional Fontaine pastry shops to ordinary Liyue-style restaurants.
At the same time, while everyone was looking for a restaurant, at the other end of the street, the water goddess Funina was walking slowly under the escort of the special patrol team. Her appearance immediately attracted the attention of the people around her.
Although she had just finished a trial, she did not seem to be in a hurry to return to Fontaine, but was enjoying the attention and praise from the people.
"Lady Finina, today's trial was so exciting!"
"Lady Finina, can you take a photo with us?"
"Lady Finina, your outfit today is also very charming! You are so beautiful! Ahhhh, I can't hold it anymore!"
Funina smiled and gracefully responded to every citizen who came forward to greet her.
She seemed to enjoy the feeling of being sought after by everyone, and every move she made revealed signs of being carefully designed.
Su Xun and his group also noticed this scene. They stood on the other side of the street and watched from a distance.
"It seems that the water goddess Funina is indeed very popular among the people." Su Xun touched his chin.
"Gods should win respect with wisdom and power, not just relying on appearance and performance." Raiden Mei said calmly.
"Haha, indeed, when you, Mei, were governing Inazuma before, the people did respect you very much, and even feared you." Su Xun said with a smile.
"Hmph!" Raiden Mei snorted lightly and did not respond to Su Xun's teasing.
"But, I'm afraid that this water god is not a real god..." Lei Dianzhen on the side murmured meaningfully.
Su Xun raised his eyebrows, "Hmm? Really, what did you say?"
"It's nothing, just a feeling." Lei Dianzhen smiled, "Okay, let's go find a restaurant."
A hint of thought flashed across Su Xun's eyes, but he didn't say anything more.
At this time, Funina also walked by with her guards.
When she passed by Su Xun, her gaze lingered on Su Xun for a moment, a hint of doubt flashed in her eyes, and then she looked away.
Su Xun's heart moved. He always felt that the way the water god looked at him was a little strange, as if he was examining him.
"Axun, what's wrong?" Shen He asked when he saw Su Xun looked strange.
"Nothing, let's go." Su Xun shook his head.
Maybe I saw it wrong...
Su Xun and his group continued looking for a restaurant on the street, and finally they chose a small shop with a quaint appearance and a lot of customers.
"This restaurant looks good, let's eat here." Su Xun suggested.
"Great, I smell a nice fragrance!" Paimon said excitedly.
When people walked into the store, they found that the decoration inside was full of Fontaine's traditional style. There were exquisite murals hanging on the walls, and the tables and chairs were made of fine wood, giving people a warm and comfortable feeling.
"Welcome, how many people are there?" the waiter came over and asked.
"Um, eleven." Su Xun replied.
This time when they came to Fontaine, in addition to Su Xun's five girlfriends, there were also four other girls, Raiden Makoto, Kitsune Saeki, Yae Kamiko, and Raiden Mei. Together with himself and Paimon, there were exactly eleven people in total.
The waiter led them to a table and handed them menus.
