All eyes were drawn to Belleto's screams, their gazes fixed on the witness stand.

On the witness stand, Belleto's figure had vanished without a trace, leaving only his pile of clothes and an empty tube of primitive fetal seawater reagent.

"This...how is this possible?!"

Marcel's voice trembled, his eyes widened like saucers, and his body involuntarily took a few steps back.

His heart was filled with confusion and fear. He had been conducting experiments to melt the Fontaine maiden using the primordial seawater, but in order to revive his lover Vinier, he had always conducted the experiments on maidens. He had never thought of trying this experiment on men.

In his memory, those girls usually took some time to completely melt away, but Belleto, he was completely melted away almost instantly.

Marcellus had also planned to use the melting process to create a false acquittal, thereby escaping the trial and hiding in another country.

He kept repeating to himself that as long as he wasn't captured by the Fontaine Inquisition and taken to Mero Petersburg, he still had a chance of survival. After all, as long as he was alive, he could always make a comeback.

"It's actually true..." Even the usually calm and composed Navelette couldn't help but show a hint of surprise when she saw a living person melting right in front of her.

At this moment, Fu Ningna's lips trembled slightly, and her eyes were filled with disbelief.

"My God! My Fucarus, what is going on? I can't believe my eyes."

"What happened?! How did such a big person suddenly turn into a puddle of water?"

"Could it be that the legendary prophecy is true, that all the people of Fontainebleau will dissolve into the water, and in the end only the water god will sit alone on the throne, weeping and shedding tears?"

After seeing Belleto dissolved in water, almost all the audience members in the Opicclay Opera House couldn't help but look towards the witness stand, wanting to find out what was going on.

Seeing this, Navelette said in a low voice, "Everyone, please remain silent!"

His voice seemed to possess a mysterious magic, gradually calming the noise in the room, and everyone involuntarily stopped discussing.

However, a few audacious thugs wanted to take advantage of the situation and secretly tried to slip out of the audience and approach the place where Belleto had disappeared.

Luo Xiao glanced around and immediately noticed these small movements. Then, a sharp glint flashed in her eyes, and her pupils suddenly dilated.

Undetectable beams of mental energy shot from his eyes, striking the thugs with deadly accuracy.

The next moment, the restless guys who were originally about to cause trouble instantly quieted down. Their expressions changed from arrogant to blank, as if they had been under some kind of spell. They sat down in their seats very obediently, looking like law-abiding citizens.

Navia's gaze was fixed on the strange puddle of water, and an indescribable shock welled up in her heart.

Memories of her childhood flashed through her mind: the shocking case that rocked the city, the image of her father, Kares, being ruthlessly arrested.

Now, everything is clear.

Why were no clues found at the scene? Why was only her father, Kares, standing there blankly, waiting for the Shadow Chaser to come and arrest her? It turns out it was all because of the Primordial Sea of ​​Fetal Life!

"Marcelle, faced with such irrefutable facts, what kind of sophistry do you still intend to offer?"

Luo Xiao's voice carried a hint of coldness, and an unquestionable decisiveness.

The atmosphere suddenly became heavy, and all eyes were focused on Marcel.

“But… but you can only prove that Belleto was hostile to Navia, not that I ordered it, and you can’t prove that I control the primordial seawater.”

Marcel's voice was trembling, but he still tried to defend himself.

Luo Xiao's lips curled into a deep, unfathomable smile. His voice was calm yet full of authority, demonstrating the qualities of a professional detective.

“This is all evidence of your crimes, Marcellus.”

As he spoke, Luo Xiao took out the diary he and Yingmei Paimon had found in the ruins earlier. It contained a detailed record of the entire process of Marcell's dissolving experiments with young girls.

Every word he uttered struck Marcellus's heart like a hammer blow. "Faced with this irrefutable evidence, what else do you have to say?"

After saying that, Luo Xiao's gaze was sharp as a knife, piercing straight at Marcel, as if he wanted to drive him to a dead end.

Marcel's expression changed drastically, and the panic and fear in her eyes could no longer be concealed.

His gaze was fixed on the notebook in Luo Xiao's hand. The damaged cover and the patterns on it were strangely familiar, making his heart feel as heavy as lead.

Could it be... that the detective from the Rose Society really found his secret base?

Navelette took the notebook from Luo Xiao's hand and looked at Marcellus: "Marcellus, faced with such irrefutable evidence, do you have anything to refute?"

“I think Marcel has nothing more to say. No, to be precise, he should be called Vasher.”

When Marcel, standing in the dock, heard the name "Vacher," he couldn't help but tremble.

"How...how did you know this name?"

Luo Xiao looked at Marcellus, then turned to the audience and told them about her discovery: "Marcellus's real name is Vasher. Twenty years ago, she had an adventurer lover named Vinier."

"But during an adventure, Vinier slipped and fell into a pool containing the waters of the primordial womb, and was dissolved in front of Vasher."

"From that day on, Vasher began to search for a way to restore Vinier. To this end, he even went so far as to kidnap countless Fontaine maidens for experiments, hoping to find a way by observing how they dissolved in the primordial seawater."

……

Listening to Luo Xiao's story, Marcell finally gave up the idea of ​​refuting it, because continuing would be pointless.

So, Marcel stepped forward, trembling, and confessed to everyone: "Yes... I am the real culprit in the serial disappearances of girls and the Carles case."

His eyes gleamed with pain and madness: "But... everything I've done is to resurrect my beloved Viner!"

"I loved her so much, but she melted away before my eyes. I can't accept the unfairness of this world!"

Marcellus was practically screaming, completely out of control.
