Genshin Impact, Teyvat's own beloved immortal.

Only a few hundred Mora in the whole morning, who would risk their life?

Navelette pinpointed Navia's location and slowly said, "Ms. Navia, can you give me a reasonable explanation for why you have gathered a group of people to cause a disturbance at the entrance of Momang Palace?"

Navia had pleaded with the Grand Justice countless times, but the result was always the same.

She was different from others; she was not afraid of the Supreme Court or the laws of Fontainebleau.

Nothing could frighten a daughter who had spent over a decade trying to clear her father's name.

"Your Honor! I have reiterated this many times! There are many doubts surrounding my father's case! The guilty verdict is not convincing! I request that the case be reopened! A reinvestigation of my father's murder case!"

Navelette shook her head. "The laws of Fontainebleau did not find your father guilty. He refused trial and chose a legal duel. The case is closed, and unless you can find new evidence, there is no possibility of reopening it."

Navia gritted her teeth and shouted angrily, "Everyone thinks there's something wrong! Even you think there's something wrong here! Why can't we reinvestigate? Just because of the law? Are those cold words written in the code really more important than anything else?"

“I’m sorry,” Navelette said coldly, closing her eyes. “The law is above all else. No matter how many times you try, I will not grant your demands. Now, take your people and leave, or else…”

"Wait a moment!!!"

Just when Navia was almost in despair, another voice came from the Mo Mang Palace.

The Water Goddess, Funina, makes her grand entrance!

"Heavens! It's the Water God!"

"Did she get alerted too?"

"Things might take a turn for the better now!"

The crowd was buzzing.

Charlotte, who has an amazing sense for trending topics, quickly snapped a few photos. She already had a feeling that tomorrow's news would be very exciting!

Navelette turned around in surprise, "Ms. Furnessa? What brings you here too?"

"With such a commotion, how could I not come?"

Fu Ningna glanced at the square in front of the door and was startled herself.

Wow! So many people have come! And the number of onlookers is still growing!

Even the reporters came!

What's going on? That guy didn't say there would be this many people there!

Calm down! Furina! Calm down!

There's nothing to be nervous about. Just treat it like a performance on stage. There are even fewer people here than during the actual performance. Don't be nervous, don't be afraid, just perform as you planned...

Furina kept reassuring herself, but the thought of publicly refuting Vilette's claims made her sweat.

"Did something happen?"

Navelette explained, "This Ms. Navia is demanding a reinvestigation of a closed case, and she has no new evidence to offer. I have refused her requests several times, but I never expected her to take such extreme measures this time."

"Oh? Is it about the 'Injustice of Carles' case? I've heard a bit about it. I've heard there are many suspicious points in that case. Your Honor, why did you choose to close such a controversial case so hastily?"

Fulina's performative personality allows her to perform exceptionally well even when nervous; after all, her acting skills honed over five hundred years are already superb.

Navelette was rendered speechless by the sudden question.

When did Funina start caring about this kind of thing?

After a moment's thought, he replied, "Kares chose the judicial duel to escape trial. Logically, the loser of a judicial duel should be tried, but Kares died in the duel and could not be tried. According to the law, in this situation, the criminal will be convicted."

Funina shook her head. "No, this is completely unreasonable. This is a loophole in Fontaine's laws!"

As soon as this statement came out, everyone was shocked.

Navelette frowned further and asked seriously, "Ms. Furnessa, may I interpret your words as a challenge to the laws of Fontaine?"

Funina shrugged.

“It’s a question! So what? I am the Water God of Fontaine, and I created the laws of Fontaine myself. Am I not allowed to question them?”

At this moment, Lu Sheng, who was lurking in the crowd, was quite satisfied with Fu Ningna's performance.

That's the kind of domineering presence that makes one resemble a water god.

It would be even better if it were a little more arrogant!

Fontaine Chapter: Chapter 151: Frinina's Power

“Ms. Furna!” Navelette shouted sternly, “You should know what you’re saying! As a Fontaine of faith, you must be responsible for every word you utter!”

The sudden somber atmosphere filled the onlookers with fear.

This was the first time the Chief Justice and Funina had spoken in that tone.

Normally, Lady Funina would show great respect to Lady Navelette, almost to the point of being obedient to her, and would not object to the Grand Justice's opinions.

But things seem a little different today.

Surprisingly, the two men had completely different attitudes toward Carles' case.

"I'm responsible!"

Funina's imposing presence was not diminished in the slightest by Navelette.

"Right is right, and wrong is wrong! The law is a process of continuous improvement; no one can create a perfect law!"

Having said that, ignoring Navelette's gloomy face, she turned to the crowd and solemnly announced: "I, Frinina! The Supreme Water Goddess of Fontaine! I hereby declare the verdict in the case of Kares's murder of his friend... invalid!"

"The Fontaine Tribunal will retry this case! And I will personally lead the investigation. Whatever the final outcome, I, Funina, will bear all the responsibility!"

Navelette simply couldn't believe that Funina would make such a rash decision.

She didn't even consult me, and insisted on doing things her own way despite knowing that I was against it.

Funina...it's like she suddenly became a different person.

"I disagree! This is against the law! If such a precedent is broken, the consequences will be unimaginable!"

Funina's face showed displeasure.

"Judge Villette, may I interpret your statement as... that this is not the only case that has been closed so unclearly? If so, then we must set a precedent! The law is very rigorous; any case with doubts must be thoroughly investigated before it can be closed."

"The Kares case is the first, but it won't be the last. After that, I will retry all the controversial cases in Fontaine, give justice to the wronged, and let the criminals who are still at large receive the punishment they deserve!"

Furnessa's impassioned speech resonated with the crowd, and for a moment, her presence even overshadowed that of Navelette.

"Ms. Funina!"

"Stop talking! My mind is made up! The words of the gods cannot be taken back! I am the water god of Fontaine, and everything is up to me. Judge Vilette, you have no right to object!"

......

Navelette was speechless; he knew he had no chance to salvage the situation.

With so many people around, including reporters, if I continued like this, tomorrow's news would probably turn the whole of Fontainebleau upside down.

He didn't say another word, and silently turned and walked into the Mo Mang Palace.

The crowd immediately began to whisper among themselves.

"My goodness, Lady Funina is actually arguing with Lady Vilette..."

"I've never seen anything like this in my life!"

"So Lady Furina has always cared about Fontaine. I thought she was only good at singing and dancing..."

"Oh my! Lady Funina is personally investigating the Kares case; perhaps she can really uncover something! I can't wait to know the truth of this case!"

This argument between Furness and Navelette greatly changed her image in the eyes of the Fontaines.

It turns out that the water god also has such a tough side!

Young reporter Charlotte excitedly kept pressing the shutter button.

I can't even imagine how much buzz this will generate for the newspaper tomorrow!

Moreover, Lady Funina's personal investigation of the Kares case is a major news story worth paying attention to, and I must follow and report on it throughout!

That's wonderful! It must be the blessing of Lady Luck that allowed me to encounter such a once-in-a-century news event!

The title of Journalist of the Year is definitely mine now!

Of all the people, the most excited was Navia, the person directly involved.

Years of hard work have paid off. The court is finally willing to reopen my father's case, and the investigation will be conducted personally by the water goddess Funina!

Father! Your injustice will soon be redressed! Do you see?

Daughter, I have always believed that you have been wronged! No matter the cost, I will find the real culprit, clear your name, and bring justice to the Casapa family!

"That's wonderful, young lady! It's Lady Funina's personal promise! We're saved!"

"Waaah... Master... You saw everything the young lady did for you, didn't you? Please bless us from heaven so that everything goes well for us..."

Miles couldn't help but shed tears of hardship.

Navia bowed respectfully to Funina and said gratefully, "Thank you so much, Lady Funina! I believe the final result will live up to your trust! On behalf of myself, my father, and the entire Casapa family, I express my gratitude to you!"

Funina, overwhelmed by the cheers, hadn't recovered yet.

It was just a little impulsive act, I never expected it to garner so much support...

Is this the pleasure that power brings?

Fucarus... Is this the script you wanted for the water goddess role I was supposed to play?

"No need to thank me, Navia. This is what I should do as the Water Goddess. I will be responsible for every citizen of Fontaine. From now on, I will personally investigate the Kares case, and I'm sure I'll need your help. So come with me to investigate the truth your father is trying to hide."

"Alright, now that I've agreed to retry the case, everyone no longer needs to gather at the entrance of Mo Mang Palace. Disperse and go back to your work. Once all the issues have been investigated, you are all welcome to come to the courtroom to witness the truth of this case."

After the crowd gradually dispersed, Furnessa spotted Sherlock.

Overwhelmed with mixed feelings, she thought to herself, "You'd better actually be able to help. I've already made such a bold promise; if the final outcome isn't what I hoped for, I'll be utterly humiliated!"

Soon after, Navia excitedly found Rikuo and couldn't help but give the detective a hug upon meeting him.

"Great! The court has finally agreed to reopen my father's case! All thanks to you, Mr. Sherlock! How did you know that Lady Furina would get involved?"

With a pipe he'd somehow acquired dangling from his mouth, Lu Sheng calmly said, "I simply made everything happen logically. The greatest credit actually goes to you for your long-term perseverance."
