Genshin Impact Simulation: Starting with Melsin's Friend
Chapter 52 Finally Seeing the Light of Day
"Everyone, hands up!"
Just as Marcel was counting down triumphantly, the office door was suddenly flung open from the outside with tremendous force, leaving everyone inside looking astonished.
The current Special Patrol Captain, Xia Wore, brandishing a gun, charged into the office first, followed by Caroline and a group of Shadow Court agents, including Melosin.
Outside the door, all of Marcel's thugs were subdued without exception, and they squatted on the ground with their heads down, dejected, under the custody and control of the police officers.
The girls in the prison were rescued one by one by the police officers. At this time, Siegwen was leading a group of doctors to carefully examine them.
"Damn it! Shadow Chaser and the Special Patrol! How did they find this place?"
Marcel cursed in astonishment, but quickly recovered, his eyes bloodshot as he glared at Mu Feng, gritting his teeth as if he harbored a deep-seated hatred.
"It's you!!"
Mu Feng crossed his arms and sneered, his contemptuous attitude saying it all.
"Give up the resistance, Marcellus!"
Xia Wore gave a low shout, and aimed her musket precisely at Marcel's direction.
"No! Get out of the way! Or I'll kill them!"
Marcellus screamed wildly, like a desperate gambler who had lost everything, taking Aurelie and Cressy hostage without any regard for the consequences.
Xia Worei hesitated for a moment, looking at the two girls who were being held hostage and becoming confused.
"Step aside!!"
Seemingly seeing that the threat had an effect, Marcellus became even more arrogant, shouting and directing his thugs to slowly move forward.
However, to Marcel's astonishment, Chavory quickly raised her gun again, precisely locking onto his position.
"Special Patrol! Are you crazy! I have a hostage! I..."
The next second, a water blade was placed against Marcel's neck, the icy edge chilling him to the bone.
Marcel turned around slowly in disbelief, only to see that all the bodyguards behind her had already fallen, and two terrified girls were embracing each other and weeping.
At this moment, Mu Feng, who seemed powerless and without the Eye of God, held a sharp water blade in front of his neck, the coldness in his eyes clearly visible.
It’s over.
It's all over.
Marcel collapsed to the ground, his arms hanging limply at his sides, his eyes devoid of any light.
……
"Name?"
"age?"
"Motive?"
The officers from the Shadow Chaser's Court questioned her one by one, but Marcel seemed to have completely lost her soul, ignoring the officers' questions.
Caroline, standing outside the door, stomped her foot indignantly, finding one of the few curse words she could muster from her frighteningly high moral standards:
"I'm so angry! This... utterly wicked bastard!"
"Don't be angry, Caroline."
Mu Feng took the annoyed Caroline into his arms, gently stroking her pink little ears and soothing the little one in his arms with a soft voice.
Clarinde, standing to the side, crossed her arms, selectively ignoring the couple's intimate gesture, and said with a furrowed brow:
“Getting angry is useless; the most urgent thing is to get Marcellus to confess his crimes.”
"After all, there are many heinous crimes that we haven't even recorded."
"Since there's no progress, how about a round one?"
Xia Worei returned carrying a large bag of fried food, her cheeks bulging, and handed everyone a shiny fried dough ring.
Just as everyone was troubled, Mu Feng slowly spoke.
"Let me try."
……
No one knows what Mu Feng whispered in Marcell's ear, but after hearing it, a glimmer of light gradually returned to Marcell's lifeless eyes.
He agreed to confess to his crimes, but only with a strange request.
After reporting to Navelette, and with the approval of the Supreme Judge, Marcel, who had detailed his crimes, finally got what he wanted.
Under the close watch of the guards, he arrived at Lujing Spring and shakily drank a bottle of [Less].
However, not long after, a piercing scream rang out, and Marcel collapsed. By the time the doctor rushed to the scene, he had already lost all signs of life.
Left with no other option, the court announced that Marcellus had died of mental illness, and the serial disappearances of the girls were officially solved.
……
Turning away from Lu Jingquan, Mu Feng's lips curled into a barely perceptible, cold smile.
Perhaps the best consolation for those innocent souls who have perished is for those who have committed heinous crimes to die in despair.
"Brother Mufeng, how did you do that?"
Caroline held Mu Feng's hand, blinked her beautiful sapphire eyes, and asked curiously.
"It's a secret."
Mu Feng smiled mysteriously, revealing the expression unique to riddle tellers.
"Is it the same secret to making desserts taste good?"
Caroline pouted in dissatisfaction, secretly pinching the soft flesh on Mu Feng's waist with her little hand.
The man who had just been so inscrutable suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. Was this the oppressive aura emanating from the Shadow Chasing Court? It was terrifying.
Don't use the 400-year-old memory sword to kill me!
Seeing Mu Feng's embarrassed and nervous smile, Caroline burst out laughing and, tugging at Mu Feng's sleeve, skipped and hopped towards the coffee shop.
"It's a deal, today's dessert is on Brother Mufeng."
……
The news that the serial disappearances of teenage girls had been solved and the killer had been caught spread at lightning speed through a young reporter Charlotte's exclusive story, and the Gabriel Chamber of Commerce became the target of public criticism overnight.
Meanwhile, the case of Kares, the president of the Rose Society, was exonerated, and the name "the unjust Kares" was no more.
People will only remember him as a hero who fought against Les, and a dutiful father.
Nighttime, De Bo Hotel.
"Partner, I don't know how to express my gratitude to you."
Navia stood up, solemnly raised her glass to Mu Feng in greeting, and then drank the wine in one gulp, her cheeks immediately flushing red.
"From now on, if you need any help, Rose will be your strongest support!"
Mu Feng quickly waved his hand to ease the serious atmosphere: "No need to be so formal, Navia."
"Like you said, this is about trust between partners."
"Such rigid adherence to formalities is not the Navia I know."
Navia relaxed her serious expression slightly, regaining her usual straightforwardness, and then announced the start of the victory celebration banquet.
"I'm sorry, Clarinde."
"I apologize for my previous poor attitude."
“What happened to Dad is not your fault.”
Among the crowd, Navia found Clarinde, who was sitting quietly to the side enjoying her food, and sincerely expressed her apologies.
Claudia seemed a little surprised, but quickly smiled and extended her hand to indicate that she didn't mind.
"Perhaps we can become good friends."
The banquet continued, and Myles took out the sugar, eggs, and milk he had brought with him, while Navia, hands on her hips, proudly demonstrated her macaron-making skills.
"Young Miss, your skills haven't diminished at all."
Myles smiled, as if the president had been exonerated, making the gentleman look much younger overnight.
The usually taciturn Silver seemed to be infected by the enthusiasm, and began to talk at length about his experiences in Nata in his early years, which drew gasps of surprise from many listeners.
(PS: There's an Easter egg when you talk to the NPC Ekuwa at Chuwen Market in Nata Arena.)
(You were caught off guard and tricked into doing all sorts of bad things, sob sob sob)
As for Mu Feng... oh, you're probably referring to the one that the little Meilu Xins are surrounding?
The celebration banquet lasted until late at night, and the guests gradually began to disperse. Just as Mu Feng was about to take Caroline and Siegwen back to the coffee shop, he was suddenly called back.
Navia's face showed signs of exhaustion from socializing. She walked up to Mu Feng and said in a low voice with a hint of pleading:
"Although it was somewhat impolite, but,"
"Partner, can you come with me somewhere?"
