Chapter 67 The Boy Reappears
"I understand. The accusation is established. Where there is an accusation, there must be a trial. Traveler, Ms. Furina considers you an adversary. We can disregard her flamboyant words and simply seek your opinion."
Are you willing to stand on Mr. Linney's side, defend him, and become his agent?
Navelette nodded, looked at Ying, and said.
"I do!"
Ying replied affirmatively.
"Alright, the trial will be held in a day. Both sides are free to investigate the incident and seek the truth. Linni and his magic team, as the parties involved, all need to remain in the opera house. The remaining audience members can leave in an orderly manner after the guards confirm their presence."
Navigette began reading the results to the crowd, after which people in the audience began registering to leave the opera house.
"Looks like I'll be busy again."
After Zhao Chuan finished speaking, he walked out and arrived at the registration hall. At this moment, a woman's voice called out to him.
"Hey, friend, your clothes are weird, they don't look like they belong in Fontainebleau."
Zhao Chuan suddenly turned his head and his gaze fell on a figure not far away.
She was a blonde woman, standing there gracefully and elegantly, as eye-catching as a blooming flower.
She was dressed in a gorgeous and elegant long gown, the hem of which fluttered like a fairy dancing gracefully.
The dress is adorned with several dazzling gemstones, each radiating a breathtaking light, as if the entire starry sky were worn on the body.
She wore an exquisite black hat, adorned with a yellow flower that added to her mystery and elegance.
With just one glance, Zhao Chuan could sense the unique aura emanating from this woman—the noble air of someone from a wealthy and aristocratic family.
Without a doubt, the person in front of me must be a princess from a wealthy family, whose every move exudes luxury and nobility.
"Is there anything I can help you with, miss?"
After staring at it for a while, Zhao Chuan snapped out of his daze and said, "My current identity is that of an executive officer of the Fools, and I can't let that slip."
"Hello, sir, my name is Navia. You look like you're from Liyue, but you're wearing winter clothes."
Navia asked, puzzled.
"Haha, what makes you say that, miss?"
Zhao Chuan smiled outwardly but thought inwardly, "They can all see that. Are they about to be exposed? What should I do?"
"Haha, don't be nervous. I didn't say anything. I just wanted to ask you, do you think it's right to treat a trial like an opera?"
Navia waved her arm and said solemnly.
"Ahem, this matter is actually quite complicated."
Well... a trial is an incredibly solemn, dignified, and justice-filled place. Its purpose is to expose the various evils and crimes in reality and bring them to the public eye, thereby arousing people's awe of the majesty and inviolability of the law.
Logically speaking, it is clearly not a good thing for the water god to treat such a sacred judgment as a farce, and even to use the law as a tool for battle to arouse people's expectations.
After all, trials should be fair, objective, and rigorous, not a place for casual games or abuse of power.
However, we must not forget one point—she is a deity. Given such a revered status, she must have had her own unique considerations and deeper meanings in doing this, right?
Perhaps in certain special circumstances, this method can better maintain social order and protect public safety?
Of course, if anyone dares to threaten the safety of the entire city, no matter how prominent or noble their status, they will inevitably face due "judgment" and punishment! Because everyone is equal before justice, and no one can escape the constraints and punishments of the law.
Zhao Chuan was sweating bullets. He had thought he was going to be discovered, which scared him, but she asked such a question. Although he answered, he still had to leave first. He had to investigate from the outside. He was too conspicuous, so he would help Lin Ni from the outside.
"Well said. By the way, what's your name? Would you be interested in joining our Rose Society?"
Navia nodded in satisfaction, a look of joy on her face.
"My name is Bruches. I have other matters to attend to and cannot discuss them with you in detail. I will treat you to a meal as an apology next time we meet."
Zhao Chuan clasped his hands in apology. Navia said regretfully, but didn't say anything, and then watched Zhao Chuan walk away.
“Bruceus… I’ll remember you.”
Navia murmured to herself as she watched Zhao Chuan's departing figure.
"Young Miss, aren't we here to investigate the serial disappearances of teenage girls? What are you doing here...?"
Just then, the elderly man standing next to Navia, dressed in an elegant black suit and wearing glasses, gently reminded her.
“I know, no rush. We’ll wait here for a traveler. With her there, our investigation will be much easier.”
Navia waved her hand and said.
"Okay, miss!"
The old man said nothing more, and stood behind Navia with another attendant.
After Zhao Chuan came out, he looked around and saw that there was no one nearby, so he sat down in a corner and began to meditate.
Once a cultivator breaks through to the Golden Path Realm, they will be able to condense a Golden Core.
At this point, they can separate their soul from their body, while their essence remains within the golden elixir.
However, if the soul suffers trauma, its very essence is also damaged. Repairing such damage is extremely difficult, because no other effective method has been discovered in this world besides relying on elixirs.
Therefore, although Zhao Chuan now hopes to use a soul to explore the truth, there are still certain risks involved.
After a day of investigation, Zhao Chuan had found some evidence and thankfully had not encountered any danger.
"Alright, after a thorough investigation, Ying has obtained some clues and information, but these alone are far from enough to confirm everything. Fu Ningna is indeed a very troublesome opponent! However, having accepted the system's mission, I can naturally go and have a go at her."
Zhao Chuan pondered to himself, then slowly stood up and gently clapped his hands. He looked down at the spiritual energy gradually emerging from his palms, a faint smile playing on his lips. Then, he reached out and removed the mask from his face.
With the mask removed, Zhao Chuan's original appearance was revealed.
His long, snow-white hair instantly turned jet white, falling smoothly over his shoulders. At the same time, his originally fierce and sinister face changed, becoming exceptionally gentle and beautiful, as if a celestial being had descended to earth.
Finally, Zhao Chuan changed into a set of traditional Liyue clothing, exuding a unique aura.
After it ended, she disappeared from the opera house. By then, it was getting dark, and Furnessa had already returned to the Moman Palace and was having dinner.
"Hehe, with so much evidence, that traveler can just wait to lose, hahaha."
Funina stared happily at the pile of documents on the table, a slight smile creeping onto her lips as she murmured softly.
In a cheerful mood, she even found tonight's dinner exceptionally delicious, savoring every bite and enjoying the sense of satisfaction and accomplishment. At this moment, Funina was filled with anticipation for tomorrow's duel.
"Hello, Ms. Funina, I wouldn't recommend that I have dinner with you!"
A gentle male voice shattered the tranquility.
"Who are you? How did you get in!"
"Furina exclaimed in astonishment, her voice tinged with panic and confusion."
She stared intently at the strange boy who had suddenly appeared before her, a strong sense of fear welling up inside her.
The boy had entered her territory without warning, catching her completely off guard.
At that moment, Funina felt as if she were being stared at by a ferocious beast, her whole body turning cold and her hair standing on end.
She tried to keep herself calm, but her legs began to tremble uncontrollably.
As various possible dangerous situations flashed through her mind, she began to regret not having strengthened security measures here.
"Guards! Guards!"
Funina called out anxiously, hoping they would come to protect her as soon as possible.
However, only silence answered her. This made her even more nervous, and fine beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.
Faced with this bizarre situation, Funina knew she couldn't just sit and wait to die. She secretly told herself to stay calm and find an opportunity to escape or subdue this mysterious boy.
At the same time, Zhao Chuan did not speak, but stood there quietly, staring at Funina with a cold and profound gaze.
The aura emanating from him was oppressive and unsettling.
"What are your intentions? Why are you forcing your way into this place?"
Funina bit her lip, desperately suppressing the rising fear in her heart, and tried to have a rational conversation with the uninvited guest in front of her.
“哈哈哈......“
A low, hoarse laugh rang out, as if it came from the depths of hell, sending chills down one's spine.
“Ms. Furnessa, please don’t be so alarmed. My visit may have been somewhat abrupt, but I meant no harm whatsoever; I simply wanted to have a chat with you.”
Zhao Chuan slowly sat down, looking at Funina with an enigmatic smile on his face.
His voice was calm and gentle, yet carried an irresistible air of authority.
"Who exactly is this person? How does he know my name? And why does he want to talk to me? Could it be...?"
Funina couldn't help but shiver, pondering to herself as countless questions flooded her mind, making her increasingly uneasy.
"The renowned Fontaine star, Lady Frynn, the current ruler of the Water God, a position she has held for five hundred years. I've heard so much about you! Hello, I am the Blessed Demon of Liyue, named 'Zhao Chuan.' You may not have heard of me, but that's alright. Let's be friends, and we'll get to know each other later."
Zhao Chuan's lips curled up slightly, revealing a faint smile. His eyes shone with a gentle yet firm light as he spoke softly.
"Haha, so you're a visitor from a foreign country. Since you've come to another country, shouldn't you abide by its laws? You've barged in so recklessly, I can arrest you for trespassing and threatening the gods."
Fu Ningna tried to appear calm, but inside she was panicking. However, as the best actor, Zhao Chuan didn't notice anything amiss.
"Ms. Fulina, please don't be angry. You know I've already set up a barrier. No matter how loudly you shout here, no one outside can hear you, and you can't threaten me. I'm just here to deliver a message."
Zhao Chuan's eyes darkened slightly, and he said in a low voice.
"What! What news do you have?"
"Furina asked, puzzled."
“I heard you’re looking for something, and I happen to know some information about it.”
Zhao Chuan smiled and said mysteriously.
How did you know I was looking for something? Who are you?
A hint of surprise flashed in Funina's eyes, but she immediately became wary again.
"I'm just a kind-hearted person who doesn't want people to suffer, and I happened to overhear some news. If you'd like to hear it, I can share it with you. But on the condition that... hmph~ you owe me a favor, how about it?"
