The Hyperdimensional Express Train takes you across the universe

"Stop, stop, stop! Stop talking!"

Before Villette could finish his words, Fernina interrupted him.

Seeing that Violet kept silent, Finina had a complicated expression. She didn't expect that Violet could see through her actions.

“It seems I guessed right.”

Finina's action made Navilette realize that her guess was correct.

"You couldn't find a solution to the prophecy, so you sought help from the Hyperdimensional Communication Company. After returning from your trip, you began planning to introduce technology to Fontaine, allowing the people at the Academy to make money, and then exposed the news of their profits."

"After completing all this, most of the people of Fontaine began to envy those in the Academy. Capitalizing on this sentiment, you launched the Dew of Wisdom to elevate the wisdom of all Fontaine people."

"As the Dew of Wisdom is distributed, all the people of Fontaine drink it, and all their problems are solved."

Navilette concluded.

However, what Villette didn't know was that when his summary reached Furninna's ears, she was filled with question marks on her face.

Have you done so much yourself?

Funina thought about what she had done since returning from the train.

The introduction of technology is to allow all Fontaine people to experience the benefits brought by the Super Dimensional Communication Company. With so many benefits, Funina feels that most people will have more trust in herself as a god.

This would undoubtedly be beneficial for her role as the water god, so Funina did it.

And the reason we praise the people at the Fontainebleau Academy of Sciences is that they did a really good job.

There was no prior planning behind the launch of the Dew of Wisdom. It was simply that he learned the truth about everything and then came up with the idea accordingly.

I was completely taking things one step at a time, so how come Villette made me look like someone with foresight?

Chapter 880: Funina confesses to Navelette, and dies of dehydration on the street

As for why Villette had such wrong ideas, Finina thought about it for a moment and found that if she followed his line of thought, the logic would be completely smooth.

This kind of coincidence made Funina sigh, how could such a thing actually happen?

"Since you've already seen it, I won't hide it from you. The effect of the Dew of Wisdom is indeed as you imagined. And I think you also know how many people in Fontaine have drunk the Dew of Wisdom."

"As for the reason why I can't tell you, I don't think I need to elaborate. We know exactly who created this kind of prophecy. We are powerless to resist them. The only thing we can do is to deal with the death of Shizi."

"Okay, I've told you everything I can. Is there anything else you want to know?"

Finina looked at Villette, waiting for the other party to ask.

"...Since you can't tell me, there's no need for me to ask. So, what we have to do next is to quietly wait for the day when the prophecy comes true?"

asked Navilette.

"That's right. Of course, we can't just sit there and do nothing. There are still many people in Fontaine who haven't drunk the Elixir of Wisdom. Besides, rising sea levels will sooner or later submerge the entire Fontaine, so we have to make preparations."

"Oh, by the way, you'd better behave as before and do what you need to do. Remember the last sentence of the prophecy? Everyone will dissolve in the sea, and only the water god will be left crying on the throne."

"According to my guess, the mechanism of prophecy is that the images in the prophecy actually appear, only then it is considered complete. If these images do not appear, I am afraid that bad things will happen."

"So, let everything take its course. Just let things unfold as they should. Just pretend that the Dew of Wisdom's additional effects never existed. Do you understand?"

Funina reminded again and again.

"...I understand. I hope everything goes well."

That Villette looked deeply at Funina.

Since he came to Fontaine and worked with Funina, this was the first time he saw such a strong Funina, but he also understood that this was a matter of life and death for the entire Fontaine. Even if Funina was usually not very serious, she had to be serious at this time.

Looking at Furninna like this, Violet was inexplicably reminded of Barbatos, the wind god of Mond.

He is also out of tune at ordinary times, but at critical moments he makes people sincerely admire him.

After finishing his conversation with Funina, Villette was about to leave the office. At this moment, a burst of hurried footsteps was heard, the door slammed open, and Funina's assistant ran in breathlessly.

"Lady Fu... Lady Fu Nina, no, something bad has happened!"

"What happened?"

Seeing her assistant's anxious look, Funina felt inexplicably annoyed. After all, there were too many things going on during this period of time.

"A case occurred at the site where the Dew of Wisdom was distributed!"

The assistant said.

"What case?"

Navilette asked. As the chief judge, all of Fontaine's cases had to go through his hands, so Navilette was very curious about what kind of case could make Funina's assistant so panicked.

"There have been several cases of dehydration deaths during this period. The victim looked exactly like those others, but this time he died in front of everyone."

"According to eyewitnesses, the deceased was scalding hot before his death, with a lot of sweat pouring out of his body. Even though many people at the scene poured water on him, it was unable to lower his body temperature."

The assistant described the case to Navillette.

After hearing the full story of the case, Villette was stunned at first, and then her eyes quickly turned to Funina.

At the Wisdom Dew distribution scene, the deceased's body was burning hot, and sweat was pouring out of his body...

All this information put together, and Villette could only think of one thing: the Dew of Wisdom was the culprit behind all this.

After all, Villette would not forget that after the Dew of Wisdom was distributed, Funina sent people to collect follow-up visits from some drinkers.

Villette still remembers the contents of those return visits.

People who have taken the Dew of Wisdom will experience fever and sweating. This phenomenon does not affect the drinker's normal life and will return to normal after one or two days.

Now, it seems that the deceased was burning hot all over before his death, with a lot of sweat pouring out of his body. Isn't this an enhanced version of fever and obvious sweating?

"Ms. Furninna, how do you want to explain this?"

Naviot looked at Funina, waiting for her answer.

"I……"

When Furninna heard Violet's question, she was about to answer, but when she saw her assistant still in the office, she quickly waved her hand.

"You go first and ask the security team to maintain public order. Villette and I will go later."

The assistant received the order and quickly left the office.

When they were the only two left in the office again, Funina spoke with a serious expression.

"I also thought there was a problem with 5.9 Wisdom Exposure, so I specifically asked the Super Dimension Communication Company. They replied that they would never make a mistake, and if there was a problem, they would be fully responsible."

"You should know that the Super Dimension Communication Company has a service that resurrects the dead. Liyue and Inazuma have already resurrected a lot of people."

After a moment's thought, Violet understood what Finina said.

Indeed, given the size and capabilities of the Super Dimension Communication Company, these things happening to Fontaine are nothing at all, and the probability of the other party having problems is almost negligible.

Even if something really goes wrong, the other party has the ability to resurrect the dead.

And if there is no problem with the company, then the problem can only be with Fontaine.

Chapter 881: Ying and Paimon return to Fontaine, everything points to the Dew of Wisdom

On a street somewhere in Fontaine, a large crowd of people surrounded a fairly large area.

In the area, several members of the Fontaine security team were investigating clues. While investigating the clues, the guards would look towards the center from time to time, where a body that seemed to have been drained of water was lying quietly.

"Did something happen here?"

On the outskirts of the crowd, Ying and Paimeng walked over and looked at the bustling crowd. They couldn't help but be curious about what was going on.

"Hey, partner, you're here!"

Just as Ying and Paimon were about to dive into the crowd to find out what was going on, suddenly, a hand reached out, grabbed their shoulders, and stopped them from moving forward.

"Navia?"

Looking at the person who was holding him, Paimon called out the other person's name.

During these days in Mellow Peter Castle, Paimon missed everything outside so much. What he missed most was undoubtedly the delicious food in Fontaine, followed by Navia who was investigating the serial disappearance of girls.

"Long time no see, Traveler, Paimon, where have you been all this time?"

Navia asked curiously.

As partners in investigating the serial disappearance of young girls, Navia likes the combination of Ying and Paimon very much. Ying is taciturn, and Paimon is eloquent. When investigating the case, the two of them can often discover some small details. In addition, they are also very reliable and treat their friends very kindly. After getting along for a while, Navia has long regarded the two of them as good friends.

"Well, how should I put it? The Traveler and I went to complete a commission. As for the content of the commission... I'm not sure if I can tell you."

Paimon covered his head, looking embarrassed.

After all, accepting Navilette's commission and entering Melo Petersburg to investigate the disappearance of the son of the Fatui executive is a major event concerning the two countries of Fontainebleau and Winter Solstice.

"I see. It doesn't matter if I can't tell you. As long as you come back safely, that's all that matters."

Navia nodded immediately after hearing this. Although she was a little curious about what the commission was, she was not the kind of person who didn't know the importance of the matter.

"By the way, Navia, what happened here?"

Seeing that Navia did not continue to ask questions, Paimon naturally turned the topic to the matter at hand.

"Well, during the time you were carrying out the commission, several horrific cases occurred in Fontaine."

When mentioning the current situation, Navia's eyes immediately became solemn.

"We don't know the cause or the method of committing the crime. There is no clue at the scene. All that's left is the deceased, who seems to have been drained of all the water in his body."

Navia informed Ying and Paimon about the case.

"Oh my god, there is such a horrific murder?!"

When Paimon heard about the case, he covered his mouth in horror and shrank behind Ying.

"Then now..."

Ying looked at the bustling crowd and had some guesses in her mind.

"The current situation is that not long ago, a person who had just received the Dew of Wisdom this morning developed a fever and sweated profusely at the Dew of Wisdom distribution site, and eventually died."

"The way he died was exactly the same as those who died from dehydration."

Navia said.

"So, the thing that caused those people to die of dehydration was the Dew of Wisdom?"

Paimon was stunned. If this was true, wouldn't it mean that the murderer of the dehydration death case was the water goddess Funina?

"The case is still under investigation. Many people still believe in the Water God. After all, we have no idea what her motive is for doing this."

Paimon thought about Navia's words for a moment, then nodded.

Indeed, as the water god of Fontaine, Funina had no motive to do so. Even if she really hated certain people, she didn't need to do it herself. As long as she inadvertently revealed her thoughts, there would probably be countless people in Fontaine who believed in the water god and were willing to stand up for Funina.

After being in Fontaine for so many days, Paimon has a good understanding of the situation in Fontaine. Although Fernina cannot compare with Zhongli in terms of the degree of faith of the people in the gods, it is undoubtedly far better than Nashida.

Even Nashida has many loyal believers, let alone Furninna.

Furthermore, Paimon had personally come into contact with Finina, and she really didn't think that she would be such a person.

"If it wasn't Funina, then who could it be? We can now basically confirm that the problem lies with the Dew of Wisdom. In other words, the murderer is at least someone who has access to the Dew of Wisdom."

Paimon reasoned.

Ying and Navia also agreed with Paimon's reasoning, so they both turned their attention to the staff not far away who had stopped distributing the Dew of Wisdom because of a case.

A moment later, with the exclamations of the onlookers, Violet and Funina arrived together.

Arriving at the crime scene, seeing the deceased, and glancing at the Dew of Wisdom placed not far away, Villette frowned.

"How's the investigation going?"

Narvilette looked at the guard members around him.

"The deceased's basic condition has been thoroughly investigated. Everything is normal, except..."

At this point, the guard member paused.

"Except that he received the Dew of Wisdom this morning and drank it on the spot."
