“Mr. Tadalia, let’s go.”

The guards waved their hands in a gesture of invitation.

After the farce ended, some audience members began to leave, while others stayed behind, still wondering what the boy had said.

When Navelette and Luminous walked off the stage together, Paimon, hearing the gossip of the audience, also looked at Navelette with curiosity.

"Hmm, Vilette, what's going on? Wasn't the young master exonerated?"

Paimon asked curiously.

"I'm sorry, this is the first time I've encountered this situation, but according to Fontaine's original settings, the judgment should be based on the result of the edict. I am just doing my job. As for the result of the edict, I think you should ask the relevant person."

After Navelette finished speaking, she turned to look at Funina on the high platform.

"Even the Supreme Judge doesn't know. It seems we'll have to ask the Water God."

Ying, understanding the unspoken message, looked in the same direction as Vilette.

Villette's voice was neither too loud nor too soft, just enough to reach the ears of every audience member present.

Now everyone looked at Funina, wanting to know the answer.

"Ah, you all, why are you all looking at me? This has nothing to do with me."

Funina felt utterly wronged. She was just thinking about where Zhao Chuan was and didn't hear Vilette shift the blame onto her at all. If she had known, she would have muttered a few words, but now everyone was looking at her, and she was already a little flustered, so she blurted out.

"Lord Water God, you are our deity! You also created this oracle machine, didn't you know?"

Some viewers raised questions and looked at Funina.

"This, I...I don't know either. Hey, don't stare at me."

Funina, bewildered, covered her flustered expression and said...

"What does Lady Furina mean by that...?"

"Yeah, is this verdict reliable at all? Is it really justice to arrest people without evidence, just like that enforcement officer said?!"

Below the audience, more and more voices of doubt arose as they stared incredulously at Funina on the high platform.

At this moment, Funina immediately adjusted her mindset and quickly cheered up. She knew that if she didn't say something, her identity would definitely be questioned, and she absolutely couldn't expose herself.

"Um... cough cough, ladies and gentlemen, do you really think there could be such an absurd misjudgment? Could the ruling just now have been wrong, or been an accident? Do you really think I don't know the actual situation?"

Suppressing her inner fear, Funina silently murmured, "Funina, I can do it. I can definitely convince my people," and said with a confident expression.

Paimon, sitting in the audience, turned away speechlessly after hearing this.

"Wait a minute~ that was definitely her expression just now!"

Paimon crossed his arms and said angrily.

After a barrage of explanations from Funina, the audience miraculously came to believe her.

And what about Funina? She made a quick getaway after saying that.

Where was she going? Naturally, she was going to find Zhao Chuan! When she parted ways with Zhao Chuan before, she learned that he was staying at the Debo Hotel.

The boy had already removed his mask and returned to Zhao Chuan's original appearance.

He sat quietly in the makeshift shelter of the Fools, his eyes meeting those of the servant opposite him.

The scene was even more somber than the frozen air, as if time itself had stopped flowing.

If Linni and the others were present, they would probably be surprised to find that the chill emanating from Zhao Chuan was enough to freeze the entire enclosed space.

After a moment of silence, the executor codenamed Servant finally broke the deadlock.

He leisurely took out an exquisite tea set and skillfully began to brew tea.

"Look at you, why are you so angry? Here, have a cup of tea to cool down."

With a smile, the servant gently placed a steaming cup of tea in front of Zhao Chuan, his tone slightly mocking.

"Explain to me why you're following me."

Zhao Chuan said impatiently.

"Well, alright. I initially asked Her Majesty the Queen to let me retrieve the Heart of God in Fontaine alone, but your appearance made me afraid you would disrupt my plans. In order to investigate your background, I... I didn't expect to have such an unexpected gain."

The servant explained his thoughts in detail.

She had no need to threaten him; all he wanted now was for the children of the Hearth House to be safe and sound.

If Zhao Chuan threatens her family, then this secret will be revealed to Her Majesty the Empress.

However, judging from the initial impression, Zhao Chuan still likes Lin Ni and the others quite a bit, at least he helped them get off the hook, so there's no need for that.

She could only try to please Zhao Chuan, because she only learned today that this executive officer, who was a few seats below her, could actually fight to a draw with the Supreme Judge.

"The unexpected gain is discovering my current appearance, right? It's completely different from the aloof, long-haired boy I used to be, right?"

Zhao Chuan said seriously.

"Hmm! As long as you don't threaten the House of Hearths, I will keep your secret."

Seeing that the coldness in Zhao Chuan's eyes had disappeared, the servant's tense nerves relaxed considerably, and he replied weakly.

"That's good. Thank you for your hospitality. I know you're looking for a way to break the prophecy of Fontaine, but I'd also like to kindly remind you that you could start your investigation by examining the waters of the Primordial Sea of ​​the Embryo."

Zhao Chuan picked up the teacup and drank it all in one gulp, then turned the teacup upside down and stood up to speak.

"Okay, thank you for reminding me. I won't see you off."

The servant also stood up and said with a smile.

After going outside, Zhao Chuan noticed that it had started raining heavily, with raindrops dripping onto the ground.

"Haha, it seems this rain isn't going to stop anytime soon."

After Zhao Chuan finished speaking, he put on the mask in his hand, transforming into the appearance of a young man, and then flashed into the Mo Mang Palace.

Inside the Mo Mang Palace, Navelette was still preoccupied with organizing documents.

"Oh, our Supreme Judge is still busy."

The boy mocked mercilessly.

"What are you doing here!"

Navelette, who was still depressed, immediately changed her expression and said seriously.

"I'm not here for anything else, just to ask a few questions. Your Honor, please don't be so wary!"

The boy leisurely sat down on the sofa, completely ignoring Villette.

"what is the problem."

Navelette didn't want to argue with him anymore; she just wanted to be alone.

“During the trial, you seemed to waver slightly. As a judge, your conscience was disturbed. This shouldn’t be the case.”

The boy emphasized the words "judge," making a mocking expression as he quipped.

"I do not have."

Navelette immediately denied it.

"No, then what is justice? You've judged so many cases, you never thought that one day you would also fall into confusion."

The boy didn't hold back and retorted.

"I……"

Having his thoughts read by the boy, he was speechless and remained silent for a moment.

“I just don’t want to believe that there is anything more important to a human being’s life, that a human being can value other things so much that he would give up his life. I’ve been thinking about and trying to understand what Kares did that day.”

A few tears welled up in Vilette's eyes as she spoke, puzzled.

"You don't understand. Humans are creatures with emotions. Emotions are their weakness and their motivation. Because of emotions, they have the drive to do everything they can to protect them, and so do I!"

The boy shook his head and pointed at Vilette.

"Yes, you're right. I'll think about it carefully, and I'll also investigate the young master's case thoroughly."

Navelette nodded in agreement.

"Haha, you better keep your word."

The boy disappeared after he finished speaking.

That evening, Zhao Chuan bought some groceries at a large restaurant and returned to his hotel, where he found a woman with a bandage covering her face sitting on his bed.

"Da Huai Chuan, do you know how long I've been waiting for you to come back now?!"

When the woman saw Zhao Chuan return, she angrily said something and then ran over to hug his arm.

"Oh, Fufu, I went out for a walk and bought some groceries, look."

Zhao Chuan said to Funina affectionately, shaking the packaged vegetables in his hand.

"Oh, hurry up, I'm starving."

"Furina removed the veil from her face and said."

Zhao Chuan then neatly arranged the dinner on the table.

Dining with Funina.

While eating, Fu Ningna told Zhao Chuan about what happened at the opera house that day.

Zhao Chuan nodded in response.

They finished their meal quickly, and after taking a shower, they lay in bed and began to discuss the philosophy of life.

The next morning, Zhao Chuan got up and looked out the window to see fine rain falling on the ground.

"I don't know when this rain will stop, or if it will even stop."

Zhao Chuan didn't think much of it, made a joke, and went to buy breakfast.

Everyone, the following plot will be told from the protagonist's perspective, and it will not be the same as the original plot. I will make some changes. If you find anything wrong, please don't criticize it. Tell me and I will correct it according to the setting.
