Genshin Impact, Raiden Shin joins the chat group

Once the scene quieted down, Navelette calmly announced, "Now that both sides are present, the trial concerning this dispute between merchants shall officially begin."

"So first, in order to make sure that everyone here understands the cause and effect of the case, Mr. Reiner, please tell us about the process of the case."

The defendant, named Reiner, looked at Villette and nodded seriously, then said earnestly, "Yes, Lord Villette, the matter actually started like this."

"I set up my stall as usual. This customer said he wanted to eat beef. I asked him if he wanted any other seasonings, and he said it was up to him."

"So I added some secret sauce to it, but later he found out there was something wrong with the beef and the sauce."

“I’ve run a shop in Fontainebleau for ten years without a single incident. He says there’s something wrong with my beef and sauce, and he’s even sued me here.”

Leiner looked extremely aggrieved; he never expected that he, who was just running a small shop, would encounter such a thing.

"Bullshit!" the accuser shouted. "Your beef is clearly defective, and I have evidence!!!"

"I had your beef and sauce tested that day, and the final result is that you poisoned it!! Although the amount of poison was very small! But you definitely poisoned it!!"

"How could I, an innocent tourist, possibly frame you?!"

These words made Reiner's face turn red with anger. He shouted, "Why would I frame you? What good would it do me?!"

The accuser retorted shamelessly, "Who knows? How would I know what benefit you'd get from framing me? And how do you plan to explain this test report?!"

Reiner was also momentarily speechless, seemingly unsure of what to say.

At that moment, the scales of judgment by the cardinal began to tip in favor of the accuser.

"Ok?"

It was at this moment that Su Hao looked at the Cardinal of the Decree, wondering if this meant that the accuser's statement was more favorable.

Or is it that his testimony is more reasonable, and Mr. Reiner cannot explain it, so the scales begin to tip?

The people in the audience also began to discuss it.

Some people say that Liner's beef is superb, how could he possibly poison it?

Others have suggested that since Lennar beef tastes so good, it might be because it contains trace amounts of toxins or other prohibited substances.

This traveler from another country may have some special constitution, which is why they developed this problem.

Some people noticed that Reiner couldn't speak, clearly because he felt guilty.

Some defended Reiner, suggesting it was likely a frame-up! They claimed some people saw Reiner's business was doing too well and wanted to convict him.

Su Hao watched as the people below the stage discussed animatedly, and a faint energy rose from their bodies, flying towards the Cardinal of Decree and Judgment.

This caused a strange look to flash in Su Hao's eyes. If he didn't possess the power of faith, he probably wouldn't have noticed this extremely weak energy at all.

But this seemingly insignificant energy, if accumulated little by little, will have an astonishing effect after many years.

"quiet!"

At this moment, Villette spoke calmly.

This calmed the crowd down again.

Navelette looked at Mr. Reiner and said, "Mr. Reiner, what evidence do you have to support your accusations?"

“I…I request my lawyer to explain for me.” Reiner seemed to know that he was bad at talking and that only his lawyer could do it.

Then a woman who looked intellectual approached Reiner and began to answer the previous questions.

This test report only examines the ingredients in the accused's bowl.

After the incident, Lennar's restaurant was closed, and the police came to test the food and sauces in the restaurant.

But the test results were: Non-toxic!!!

Another crucial piece of information is that the accuser repeatedly claimed he was poisoned, but he himself showed no signs of poisoning at the time.

The poison detected in the bowl, while not lethal, was enough to make an adult feel unwell for three days and three nights, even in trace amounts.

So there's only one truth! That the accuser poisoned himself!

Faced with such accusations, the accuser became extremely angry, exclaiming, "Is he out of his mind?! Why would he poison himself?!"

Was it because he wanted to frame Reiner? He had no reason to do that.

Despite the accuser's claims, the scales of judgment by the Cardinal began to tip again, this time directly in Reiner's favor.

The intellectual defense attorney scoffed and looked at the accuser, saying, "Of course you have a reason to do this, because you received a huge sum of money from Mora and went against your conscience to poison yourself to frame Mr. Rainer."

"I have already asked a friend to investigate this huge sum of money, and I believe the truth will come to light soon."

"Furthermore, according to Fontaine law, if you plead guilty now, your punishment will be much lighter than if the truth is uncovered later."

"Or are you going to take a gamble?!"

"However, whether you gamble or not, the plan to frame Mr. Rainer has already failed."

Accompanied by the sharp words of the intellectual woman, the accuser turned pale and kept backing away until he finally sat down on the ground.

It was obvious that he was starting to feel guilty.

The audience members started whispering again, and the tide was now completely turning in Reiner's favor.

"Ugh, so boring." Funina shook her head, indicating that the plot was starting to get boring.

"What's wrong?" Su Hao found it quite novel, because this was the first time he had ever seen such a scene. It would be quite difficult for people from other countries to see this kind of scene.

Regardless of the different interrogation methods used in various countries, in these kinds of miscellaneous civil cases, most people are willing to directly swear an oath to the gods in order to prove their innocence!

Unlike my previous life, the continent of Teyvat is truly a place where gods are watching from above, and these gods will even look down upon us.

And this method can be used not only in civil cases, but also in more serious criminal cases.

If criminals are found in Mondstadt, the Knights of Favonius will take over the case.

When faced with most criminals, the Knights of Favonius would directly interrogate them, and if they confessed, they would be treated leniently.

If the person does not confess and is a Mondstadt citizen, the Knights of Favonius will escort him to the statue of the Anemo Archon.

Tell him to swear before the wind god that he has not committed any crime! If he has, then he will lose the wind god's protection.

Then, most of the prisoners who were initially stubborn chose to confess without saying a word after hearing this.

This tactic is effective not only in Mondstadt, but also in Liyue and Inazuma.

The Wind God and the Rock God might not be able to kill them, but as for Inazuma, he dared to swear in the name of the Thunder General and even lied.

A bolt of lightning will definitely strike down from the sky that day, killing the person half to death.

A certain court official who particularly enjoyed joking with the Thunder General had been struck by lightning by the Thunder General several times.

If you swear an oath to the Grass God, then you're on your own. If the Grass God hears you, he might just give you a second glance.

Furthermore, the Grass God possesses the ability to read minds, making it highly likely that he can instantly determine who is lying and who is not.

"No, it's just that the situation is pretty obvious from now on." Funina yawned, looking a little bored.

She had witnessed similar scenes many times over the centuries.

If nothing unexpected happens, the trial will either remain deadlocked or the prisoner will confess in tears.

Navelette looked at the accuser and said expressionlessly, "Accusator, is what Rainer's defense attorney said true?"

"No! It's fake!" the accuser shouted. "Why would I poison myself? All that Mora you mentioned, I earned through my own abilities."

"He slandered me!!! He slandered me!!!"

The decree indicated that the scales of judgment would once again tip in Reiner's favor.

But the intellectual woman snorted coldly and looked at the accuser, saying, "You're just being stubborn. You'll know you're wrong once my friend brings the evidence."

"The consequences you face then will be far more severe than the lenient punishment you are in now."

The accuser gritted his teeth, his breathing was a little rapid, but he still stood there, waiting for the so-called evidence to arrive.

Navelette continued, "The court is adjourned until new evidence arrives. The trial will resume in one hour."

“Members of the security force are responsible for guarding the accuser and the accused.”

After these words were spoken, both parties were temporarily taken away to await the emergence of new evidence before the trial would resume.

The other viewers were discussing what kind of changes might occur next.

It's important to know that a trial can take a long time, and no one knows what might happen during that time.

"Su Hao, what do you think about what's going to happen next?" Although Fu Ningna felt she could roughly guess the outcome, she still wanted to see what Su Hao thought about the trial.

“Me?” Su Hao blinked and smiled at Funina. “That intellectual woman is out of options. She doesn’t actually have any friends, and she has no evidence.”

"All she can rely on is the members of the security force, to see if they can act quickly enough to find the person who secretly paid the accuser, Mora."

"But it's impossible to find, because the accuser, in his stubbornness, actually knows that his employer has already left Fontaine."

"So he knew the other party was lying, and his pale face was because he was afraid that his employer would return to Fontaine or that the evidence he had hidden would be discovered."

"Huh?" Furina exclaimed in considerable confusion, quite shocked. "You? How did you know?!"

"Are you the legendary super detective?! You can see the whole truth at a glance?!?"

At this moment, Funina was shocked. If someone else had said this, she wouldn't have been surprised.

Instead, they will ask and question the other person about how they know so much.

But Su Hao was different; he revealed almost every detail, except for mentioning the employer behind it all and the so-called hidden evidence.

“Because I used the power of the Grass God.” Su Hao looked at Funina and said casually, “I can see into other people’s hearts and tell if they are lying.”

"Of course, this power has no effect on the strong, and I will not casually pry into other people's minds, so you can rest assured."

Su Hao watched as Funina's face gradually turned pale, and offered a brief explanation.

"Hahahaha... Is that so?" Funina laughed, and for a moment she even stammered, not knowing what to say.

Funina's heart started pounding again.

There's no way around it; Su Hao's ability to see into other people's minds is truly frightening, but it has no effect on the strong.

The problem is... I'm not strong! What if he uses it on me?!

Funina was panicking, but she had to calm down, because if she didn't, she would definitely reveal more flaws.

To avoid the topic, Funina looked at Su Hao and said, "By the way, if that's the case, then... what evidence is the accuser hiding?"

"This?" Su Hao looked at the accused being taken away and said calmly, "It's actually very simple. He put the poison under the floor in his room and didn't destroy it immediately."
