This MC is so original

"Vaughn, you should be aware that your plan has failed, and your organization will certainly kill you. The only thing you can do now is to tell us everything you know and seek the protection of the guards."

Under Villette's cold gaze, Vaughn lowered his head and nodded.

"I understand. I've already said that the mission our organization has given me is to pin the blame on Linny and the Fatui behind him, and our boss's name is..."

Before Vaughn could say the man's name, his eyes suddenly widened, and he clenched his throat tightly with both hands as if he was choked by something, and a hissing sound came out of his throat.

Before anyone could react, Vaughn's facial features began to expel large amounts of water. In full view of everyone, Vaughn completely dissolved into a pool of water, leaving only his clothes falling into the puddle.

Seeing this scene, everyone stood up from their seats in horror.

Lu Xiu frowned and looked at the small map. Vaughn's icon had completely disappeared, which meant that he was really dead.

“I never thought the prophecy would come true.”

Tartaglia, who was standing next to Lu Xiu, also had a very ugly expression on his face. He didn't expect that there was an organization that wanted to put the blame on their Fatui for this matter.

Although the Fatui themselves are evil enough, this is not a reason for others to put the blame on the Fatui!

Chapter 311: Weeping Funina

Under the command of Navilette, the guards quickly and thoroughly searched the opera house, but did not find anyone acting suspiciously inside.

Tartaglia stood beside Lu Xiu, tapping his arm a little irritably, and couldn't help but look at Lu Xiu beside him.

"Lu Xiu, do you think they can find the person who killed Vaughn?"

"What? What are you in such a hurry for?"

"Of course I'm anxious!"

At this moment, Tartaglia wished he could go down and find the person who silenced the witness himself. He clenched his fists, looked at the guards who returned empty-handed, and couldn't help but express his feelings.

"These guards are useless! If we, the Fatui, were here, we would have found that person even if we had to turn the dirt in this opera house over!"

Lu Xiu smiled and crossed his arms, saying, "That's probably impossible. No matter how hard you Fatui search, you won't be able to find him, because the person who silenced him isn't even in the opera house."

"How did you know?" Tartaglia was a little surprised.

But Lu Xiu didn't explain. Seeing that he didn't explain, Tartaglia didn't ask any more questions and just sighed in disappointment.

If he could catch the murderer who was trying to frame the Fatui, he might be able to gain merit. If Her Majesty the Queen was pleased, she might grant him a vacation so that he could return home and meet his family.

The guards came back one after another to report to Navillatte that the search was fruitless, and a hint of disappointment appeared on Navillatte's calm face.

However, Villette quickly suppressed his disappointment and looked up to announce to the audience.

"Next, I will announce the outcome of this case."

Villette and the crowd all looked at the huge scale in the center. This was Fontaine's most magical machine - the Cardinal of Judgment. Whether Linney was guilty would also be decided by this scale.

At this time, the scales on the side of the Cardinal's judgment had completely tilted towards Lu Xiu and others.

"Is this the Cardinal of Fontaine? He looks quite ordinary."

Lu Xiu didn't see anything special about the Cardinal Judge. If he had to say something special, it would be that the Cardinal Judge's appearance was quite special.

"Don't underestimate the Cardinal of Judgment."

At this moment, Linnie seemed to want to relieve his tension and couldn't help but talk to Lu Xiu.

"It can absorb the emotions and beliefs people experience during trials and transform them into energy. This energy, along with another, is one of the main sources of energy in Fontaine."

"So this is why Furninna is so keen on the trial?"

"Who knows? We don't know what Lady Finina is thinking. Perhaps this is one of the reasons."

While Lu Xiu and Linnie were chatting, a piece of white paper came out of a small machine in front of Villette.

Navilette took the white paper, took a look at it, and then announced it to everyone.

"The defendants, Linnie and Linnet, are not guilty."

As the word "not guilty" came out of Navelette's mouth, the whole audience burst into warm applause and cheers.

This made Linnie's pale face couldn't help but smile.

"That's great! I don't have to go to jail anymore."

However, compared to the relaxed Linnie, Lu Xiu and Tartaglia were a little uncomfortable.

"It was clearly a trial, but it ended up being greeted with cheers and applause, just like a successful performance. It's really hard to get used to."

"really."

The trial was over, and so was Lu Xiu and Tartaglia's work as defense attorneys.

Linny wanted to keep them and treat them to a meal to express his gratitude, but was directly rejected by Tartaglia and Lu Xiu.

"I don't have time to eat now."

Tartaglia hurried back and prepared to ask his men to investigate the organization behind Vaughn. He hurriedly said goodbye to Lu Xiu and Linny and left.

Lu Xiu also raised his hand and pointed at Navirette on the stage, and apologized to Linny and explained: "Sorry, Linny, I still have something to talk to Navirette about, so I won't eat."

"Ok."

Both of his saviors refused his reward, which made Linnie a little depressed, but soon his face returned to his usual smile.

"Business is more important. Let me repay you, Mr. Lu Xiu, next time."

"Well, definitely."

Lucius found Navilette who had just come down from the judge's seat. Just as he was about to tell her why he came, Navilette raised his hand and declined with an apologetic look on his face.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Lu Xiu, I have some things to take care of right now. If you have anything to ask me, could you please come to my office later?"

"Row."

Lu Xiu didn't continue to pester Villette. Since the other party didn't have time now, he planned to go find Villette later.

After leaving the opera house, the sky was gradually getting dark.

As soon as Lu Xiu came out, Yandora couldn't wait to get out of the Poké Ball. As soon as she came out, she took a deep breath of fresh air.

But as soon as she finished breathing, her face immediately became sad and she seemed to be in great pain, which made Lu Xiu a little worried.

"Yandora, what's wrong with you?"

"Lu Xiu, the moisture in the air carries a sense of sadness and loneliness..."

"Can water carry emotions?"

Lu Xiu didn't believe it at first, but then he thought that this world was not ordinary, and what Yandora said might be true.

Yandora nodded and pointed in a direction.

"Well, that sentiment is particularly strong over there."

"Ok?"

Lu Xiu suddenly became curious and walked in that direction with Yandora.

As he walked, Lu Xiu was trying to recall what was in that direction.

"If I remember correctly, there seems to be only a huge fountain over there?"

"Well, that fountain is called Lujing Fountain. It's very magical. It collects all the water drops from Fontainebleau."

"This kind of thing has nothing to do with emotions, right?"

The two of them walked towards Lujingquan. Because the sky was dark, there were no pedestrians on the road and it seemed particularly quiet.

When they arrived not far from Lu Jingquan, Lu Xiu and Yan Duola stopped because they saw a figure beside Lu Jingquan.

I saw Funina sitting on a bench beside Lu Jingquan, with a black cat sitting on her legs. Water drops were dripping from the black cat's back from time to time, and it could only lick its wet hair with its tongue.

"Lady Furninna... is she crying?"

Yandora was surprised to see Funina crying silently, and then asked Lu Xiu, "Lu Xiu, you didn't curse too harshly during the trial, did you? You even made Lady Funina cry."

Lu Xiu crossed his arms and rolled his eyes in annoyance.

"I didn't say a single dirty word the entire time. But, you, a mere Water God, are crying just because you lost a trial?"

"Isn't she too fragile?"
