"Vache...Girl...Marcelle...Sad Diary...Serial Disappearances..."
Furninna suddenly had an epiphany.
"I know! Vashie is Marcelle! Marcelle is Vashie! He lost the girl he loved and fell into madness. But why did he kill other innocent girls?"
"Ah! Could it be that he was looking for girls who looked like his deceased lover, and then caught them and played with them until he got tired of them and realized that they couldn't replace his beloved, so he destroyed their bodies! How perverted!"
You guessed it right, but not entirely.
I have to say that Funina has a very rich imagination.
Lu Sheng threw a lab record over and reminded him again, "You think he's too perverted. He just wanted to revive his lover who was accidentally dissolved by the primordial fetal sea water through an experiment. This lab record is enough to prove his crime."
Funina looked through the experimental records and felt terrible.
Each page above represents a girl who disappeared from this world forever.
What is transformed from a living life is just a string of cold experimental data.
Everything that the beast Vashie did is outrageous to both humans and gods!
Funina asked the young reporter to take photos of all the evidence and keep them for record.
"Let's go back quickly. With these, we can definitely convict Marcelle in court!"
The three of them immediately rushed back to Fontaine. At this moment, the sky in the east was already dawning. In a few hours, Marcelle would be brought to court.
Furninna had to hurry and take the evidence to meet Clorinde and the others.
Lu Sheng secretly pulled the young reporter aside and told him, "It's still dark now. You still have time to rush back to the newspaper and write an article. Make sure this matter is published on the front page of today's news. The more people who come to watch the trial, the better."
Charlotte made an OK gesture, "Don't worry about this. I'm not good at fighting, but I'm a professional at making headlines. I can make sure that everyone in Fontaine pays attention to this trial!"
The one who gained the most from this investigation was Charlotte. Not only was she able to avenge the threatening letter that had been sent to her, but she also got hold of so much important news and photos in one fell swoop. Even if she wrote an article every day, she could write a different one for more than ten days in a row.
The Journalist of the Year award must definitely belong to me.
Charlotte said goodbye to the two and went back to the newspaper office first, while Lu Sheng and Funina went back to reunite with Clorinde and others.
Fontaine Prison.
Navia was restless, pacing back and forth, looking out the door from time to time.
"Why haven't they come back yet? The trial will start in a few hours! If we don't get enough evidence, the testimony of those murderers alone may not be enough to convict Marcelle..."
Clorinde was much calmer than Navia. She sat there calmly and comforted her, "Don't be too nervous. Lady Funina will go there in person, so there will be no problem. Now that Marcelle has been captured by us, we just need to wait quietly. Our current mission is to guard the prison to prevent Marcelle's men from having the idea of robbing the prison."
It turned out that Clorinde's concerns were not unfounded.
Before she finished her words, there was a sound of fierce fighting outside the prison.
Navia and Clorinde's faces darkened, they looked at each other, and immediately rushed out.
Surprisingly, it wasn’t a group of people who came to rescue Marcelle, but only one person.
The man concealed his face with a mask, but his strength was terrifyingly strong. The mechanical guards and the law enforcement team at the door were all knocked to the ground by him in less than a minute.
"How audacious! If our Fontaine Prison was successfully robbed twice in a week, wouldn't it be the biggest joke?"
Clorinde drew her sword and said to Navia behind her: "You go and guard inside to prevent him from luring the tiger away from the mountain and letting his accomplices secretly take Marcelle away."
Navia nodded slightly, "Yeah! You have to be careful!"
At this moment, the complex emotions that had been entangled for more than ten years dissipated silently, and the relationship between the two seemed to have returned to that of innocent playmates in childhood.
The jailbreaker said nothing and decisively attacked Clorinde.
Clorinde responded calmly, and sparks flew as the weapons of both sides continued to collide.
The opponent's strength is quite strong, almost on par with Clorinde.
But Clorinde is no longer the Clorinde she once was.
After being nourished by Lu Sheng's Divine Heart, even she herself did not realize how much her strength had improved.
The fundamental reason is that she has not really used elemental power.
The nourishment brought by the Heart of God lies in the increase of the elemental power of thunder. If the elemental power is not used, the results will not be seen.
Facing a powerful opponent at this moment, Clorinde unexpectedly felt the changes in her body after releasing the element of thunder.
An unprecedented wonderful feeling flows through every muscle of the body.
Even the opponent's movements slowed down.
But it was Clorinde who became faster.
She lunged forward quickly, applying what she had learned, following the principle of four shallow and one deep when making her moves. A sudden fierce attack made the jailbreaker groan and retreat backward, almost having his chest pierced.
The jailbreaker obviously wanted to say something, but he was afraid that the sound would reveal his identity, so he held it back.
Just then, Funina and Lu Sheng arrived at the scene.
Seeing that the situation was unfavorable, the jailbreaker fled quickly without looking back and disappeared without a trace.
Clorinde murmured, "Strange... why does that back look so familiar?"
"Who was that just now?" Funina asked worriedly.
"Marcelle's accomplice, here to break the prison, he's quite powerful, but luckily I anticipated it and am here to guard."
"Great! Where's Navia? We already have evidence that Marcelle secretly created Les. You may not believe it, but we also solved a serial disappearance case of young girls!"
Clorinde was shocked, "Really? Even the disappearance case is related to Marcelle? What's going on?"
"It's too complicated to explain now. When we get to the trial, I'll let Marcelle tell the truth in person!"
At this point, Marcelle's last hope had just been shattered by Clorinde, and it was only a matter of time before he was brought to trial.
While Funina was sharing information with the two, the Steambird Newspaper on the other side also published the latest newspaper of the day at the usual time.
The ink on the newly arrived newspapers hadn't even dried yet.
The photo of the water goddess Finina smashing the mechanical guard with one blow was published in the most prominent position, occupying a quarter of the newspaper.
《Shocked! Lady Water Goddess Funina actually attacked the mechanical guard? After learning the truth, everyone exclaimed, "Well done!"
"People are panicking! Is there a deadly poison hidden in the mysterious factory? Will the people of Fontaine die if they touch it?"
"Totally heartless! The president of the Chamber of Commerce actually did beastly things to many young girls?! Has the real culprit of the mysterious disappearance case been solved?"
"Is there something else going on? The latest development in the case of Carres killing his friend, the water god personally takes action! The answer will be revealed in today's trial!"
This title, which could only be written by a genius, aroused strong curiosity among all the people in Fontainebleau.
As a result, before the courtroom even opened, it was already surrounded by a crowd of onlookers.
Fontaine: Chapter 156: The Second Judicial Duel, Rikuo vs. Tartaglia
"Marcelle! Listen!"
The courtroom was packed.
the judge shouted loudly to the defendant Marcelle.
Marcelle: “I’m listening!”
"This court is now filing a lawsuit against you for multiple crimes, including the production, processing and sale of the banned drink Lex, bribery of officials, intimidation of others, illegal acquisition of mechanical guards, organization of private armed forces, and suspected murder of multiple girls!"
Marcelle protested loudly: "I object! I am just a businessman! I was sleeping peacefully at home, but you broke into my house and pushed me to the ground without any reason, and put me in jail. Now you put so many hats on my head for no reason! Is Fontaine still the people's Fontaine?!"
Chief Justice Navillatte said solemnly: "What the Law Court did was indeed not in compliance with the rules and regulations. This trial was neither just nor regular."
"But this is what Lady Funina wanted. She is the water goddess of Fontaine. I have no right to interfere with her personal wishes."
That Villette looked at Funina standing in the plaintiff's seat with a complicated expression, and just hoped that she would not mess things up this time.
If Marcelle was finally proven not guilty, it would undoubtedly crush the entire Fontaine law to the ground and make all the rules of the court a joke.
No one will obey the law willingly in the future.
Seeing that Furninna was extremely confident, Violet decided to trust her this time.
Now that the Chief Justice has spoken, the trial is a foregone conclusion.
Marcelle gritted his teeth. He would never have thought that such a thing would happen in a country that followed the law.
Without any notification or investigation, people were arrested and tried directly.
If this isn’t oppression, what is?
He absolutely could not accept being brought to trial like this.
"I demand a judicial duel!!!"
The whole audience was stunned.
Another judicial duel?
The audience was excited to see two judicial duels in just one week.
"quiet!"
Then Villette calmed the noise and asked, "Mr. Marcelle, are you sure you want to exercise your right to a judicial duel?"
"Yes! I'm sure!" Marcelle shouted firmly.
"According to the laws of Fontaine, you are qualified to file an application for a judicial duel, and I have approved it. So... who is your duel agent? Or do you want to participate in the duel in person?"
"it's me!"
Suddenly, a man walked into the courtroom.
All eyes were focused on it.
A brown-haired nobleman walked slowly towards the courtroom and stood next to Marcelle.
Dadalia?
Lu Sheng suddenly smiled with relief.
How come I'm not surprised at all?
As early as when he was going through the plot in the game, he had doubts. Could Marcelle, a businessman alone, really have the ability to hide his tracks for such a long time and infiltrate all levels of Fontaine?
The money required to manage everything is not a small amount, not to mention that he has a group of mechanical guards under him. This is not something an ordinary businessman can do. The funds of a mere chamber of commerce are not enough to support this system.
Marcelle is probably just a pawn in this system.
However, the appearance of the young master made the whole thing more interesting.
He was definitely not the culprit behind the whole incident. After all, the girl's disappearance case lasted for more than 20 years. Even if the Fatui joined at the end, there was no position for the Young Master at that time.
There must be other executives involved.
"It's him?"
Clorinde rose from her seat.
No wonder she always felt that the jailbreaker outside the prison was a little familiar. She remembered him the moment she saw Tartaglia. The other person's figure was very similar to the challenger who had been harassing her before.
That is the current duel agent.
"My name is Tartaglia, and I've been hired by Marcelle to be his dueling agent. Is that okay?"
Villette was feeling overwhelmed and thought that he must find an opportunity to delete the rule of judicial duel.
"no problem."
"Then please ask the Inquisition to send out your duel agents as well."
Tartaglia was very arrogant, with his arms folded across his chest, looking at everyone present with contempt.
"Is it Clorinde, the strongest duel agent, or the water god himself in the plaintiff's seat?"
Navrette looked at Funina.
"Ms. Fininna, Ms. Navia, you are the plaintiffs in this trial. Please make your choice. If you do not want to participate in the duel in person, I will arrange for the duelists from the Tribunal to take the stage."
"Claurinde, you should be okay, right?"
Although Clorinde lost the duel a few days ago, she is still the strongest duelist that Fontaine has so far.
"I don't have any questions!"
Clorinde was ready to go.
