Li Xiao grabbed her and said, "Walking like this is too slow. You point the way, and I'll fly you there."

"Baisong Town is over there."

Xia Worei pointed in a direction as instructed.

Li Xiao grabbed Xia Wolei and Shen He by the waist and flew in the direction she pointed.

Xia Worei felt a blur before her eyes, and when she landed again, they had already arrived in Baisong Town.

Knowing that Li Xiao was a god, Xia Worei wasn't too surprised; she simply marveled at the god's power in her heart.

Xia Worei suggested, "Lord Li Xiao, let's go to the Thorn Rose Society's stronghold and ask where Navia is."

Li Xiao shook his head. "No need for that trouble. I've already found Navia's location."

The wind had already told him that Navia was now less than two hundred meters away from him.

"Eh?"

Xia Worei was stunned for a moment. If Li Xiao could find someone, what was the point of bringing her here?

Nevertheless, she decided to continue following Li Xiao to see if there was anything else she could help with.

This time, Li Xiao led the way, and the three of them walked straight ahead.

Soon, Navia's figure came into view, walking slowly towards them from the opposite side.

Behind her were two men in suits and sunglasses, presumably Miles and Silver, who really looked like a mob boss's daughter.

When Navia saw Li Xiao, she was first taken aback, thinking she was seeing things, but she quickly realized that the person in front of her was indeed Li Xiao.

She then stepped forward warmly, her face beaming with smiles: "Lord Li Xiao, what a coincidence to meet you here! Are you here with Xia Worei and this young lady?"

“Yes,” Li Xiao nodded and introduced, “This is Shen He. I brought her to Fontainebleau today. I originally wanted to ask Xia Wore to be our guide, but she recommended you.”

"Oh?" Navia glanced at Xia Worei with slight surprise. She hadn't expected Xia Worei to recommend her.

However, putting aside Li Xiao's divine status, she couldn't possibly refuse such a thing, given the kindness Li Xiao had shown her before.

She clapped her hands excitedly: "In that case, I'm honored to be your tour guide. Let's set off without delay, I know a lot of interesting places!"

"and many more."

However, just as Navia was about to lead everyone off, Li Xiao called her back.

Navia stopped and looked at Li Xiao with a slightly puzzled expression: "What's wrong?"

“I haven’t finished speaking. My original purpose was just to travel. It was only when Xia Wore mentioned you that I remembered there were some important things I hadn’t told you last time.”

"important things?"

Upon hearing this, Navia's expression turned serious. If even Li Xiao, the Wind God, considered it important, it certainly wasn't a trivial matter.

Li Xiao suggested, "Let's find another place to talk."

This was, after all, a public street. Although he could block out his surroundings, he still felt there was no atmosphere conducive to conversation.

Navia nodded. "I understand. There's a stronghold of our Thorn Rose Society nearby. Please follow me."

She led the group to the base and then into a somewhat secluded room.

Once everyone was seated, Li Xiao didn't keep them in suspense and said directly, "I know you're investigating your father's affairs, and I know the truth about this case."

"is this real?!"

Navia, who had just sat down, was so shocked by the news that she stood up again.

Without pausing, Li Xiao continued, "The mastermind behind this drug, Les, is someone you know, Marcellus."

"Uncle Marcellor?"

Navia found it hard to believe, but she also knew in her heart that Li Xiao would never lie to her.

“Marcelle’s real name is Vasher. Before I saved Fontaine, you Fontaines would be dissolved if you came into contact with a liquid called ‘Primal Fetal Sea Water’.”

Coincidentally, Vashe's lover was also from Fontainebleau, and he also happened to come into contact with the waters of the primordial womb, and was thus dissolved.

In order to revive her, Vashe began to study the waters of the Primordial Sea of ​​the Womb and kept capturing innocent Fontaine girls to cooperate with his experiments, which is the origin of the missing girl case.

The Les was something he made and sold using the water of the Primordial Fetal Sea as raw material, in order to raise funds for his research.

When your father, Kares, was about to uncover the truth about Les, he willingly sacrificed himself in a duel with Claurind to protect you.

"It's actually like this..."

Upon learning the truth, Navia clenched her fists in anger, her eyes turning fierce, wishing she could punch that hypocritical bastard Marcell to death right now.

Xia Wore was equally indignant. Driven by a sense of justice, she immediately stood up and asked seriously, "Should we arrest Marcellus right now?"

She could not tolerate such evil people not receiving the punishment they deserved; justice must be served!

"No!" Navia said through gritted teeth, "We have no evidence!"

Although she now also wants to arrest Marcellus, she cannot try him without evidence, let alone clear her father's name.

Li Xiao naturally understood this principle as well, and said in a relaxed tone, "Evidence? That's very simple. I have a way to make him reveal the whole truth and hand over all the evidence."

"Thank you so much!"

Navia's eyes welled up with tears as she looked at Li Xiao with a touch of emotion. He had not only told her the truth, but also resolved all her worries.

Navia was at a loss for how to repay Li Xiao for this favor, in addition to the debt she owed him when he saved Fontaine last time.

Li Xiao blinked and said playfully, "No need to thank me. After all, I felt really good about your kiss last time, so consider this a way of repaying you."

His words lightened the atmosphere considerably, and Navia lowered her head shyly, a blush creeping onto her cheeks.

Navia didn't expect Li Xiao to bring up that kiss, but after his reminder, Navia also thought of how to thank Li Xiao.

But the more important thing now is to bring that guy Marcellus to justice!

After discussing the plan, the group immediately set off and, based on the information from the Rose Society, quickly located Marcellus's position.

When Xia Wore, Navia, Miles, and Silver surrounded Marcell, Marcell still hadn't realized the seriousness of the situation. He frowned and looked at them, asking, "What are you doing?"

Navia stared at him and said, "Marcel, no, Vasher, you're the mastermind behind Les, aren't you?"

Upon hearing the name Vashe, a flicker of panic crossed Marcell's eyes, but she maintained her composure and said, "What are you talking about? I don't know any Vashe. Navia, are you mistaken? Have you forgotten me...?"

But as he was speaking, Xia Worei had already come up behind him, kicked him to the ground, and then pointed a gun at him.

"What do you want to do?!"

At this point, Marcellus finally panicked and began to struggle desperately.

But Xia Worei easily subdued him by simply stepping on his back with her right foot.

"Bastards! You have no right to arrest me! You're framing me! You're slandering an innocent person like me!"

Marcel protested loudly, attempting to defend himself.

"Slander?" Upon hearing this word, Li Xiao walked over with amusement and looked down at him.

"You...who are you?!"

Marcellus struggled to lift her head and saw the face of the man standing in front of her; her pupils dilated instantly.

"The Wind... God?"

He recognized the face that had appeared in the newspapers many times, and fear froze his heart like ice.

“You don’t need to speak.” Li Xiao met his gaze and released his hypnotic power. “Just answer whatever I ask.”

“Yes…” Marcellus’s gaze froze.

"Tell us all the bad things you've done over the years, and if you have any evidence, tell us where you put it."

"x years ago, I kidnapped a girl named Tara. I dissolved her using the water of the Primal Sea of ​​Immortality, and the experimental records are in the basement of this house. x years ago..."

He began to list his crimes, from kidnapping girls to murdering them, to manufacturing Les drugs, colluding with nobles, and selling Les drugs for profit.

One by one, these shocking cases were slowly revealed to the public.

Navia and Chavorei listened to these horrific crimes, their hearts filled with a mixture of anger and sorrow.

They couldn't believe that someone could stoop so low and commit such inhuman acts.

Because Li Xiao already knew some things, she didn't react much; she just frowned.

However, what he least expected was that the real mastermind behind Less drugs was not just Marcel alone, but also the greedy nobles of Fontaine.

Marcel handed over a large portion of his income to these nobles in exchange for their protection.

However, this makes sense. If no one had protected Marcellus, he could never have committed so many evil deeds without leaving a trace.

Those nobles will do anything for profit.

I just don't know why these nobles in the game have never been brought to trial.

The narration lasted for nearly an hour, and that was only because Li Xiao asked him to pick out the bigger stories to tell; otherwise, they wouldn't have finished by now.

Li Xiao instructed, "Xia Worei, go and inform the garrison to collect the evidence that Marcel mentioned."

"Yes!"

Upon hearing Li Xiao's order, Xia Worei immediately set off.

“Navia, keep Marcel locked up for now. Once the guards arrive, we’ll take him to the Opiclie Opera House. I’ll be judging him with Fucarus this afternoon.”

"I see."

Navia nodded, told Miles and Silver to keep an eye on Marcellus, and then followed Li Xiao to the door.

Li Xiao asked her, "How are you feeling now? Your father's reputation is about to be cleared."

Navia's eyes conveyed a complex mix of emotions, a sense of relief mixed with sadness:

“I…I feel a relief I’ve never felt before. My father’s innocence is about to be proven, which is the result I’ve dreamed of for years. But when I think of the girls who lost their lives because of this, it’s hard for me to be happy.”

Li Xiao understood Navia's feelings. He gently patted her shoulder and comforted her, "But those innocent girls are beyond redemption. We can only seek justice for them by upholding righteousness."
