It now appears that Carles deliberately sought death, and no one could stop him.
There were three reasons for his death.
1. The killer who intimidated the serial disappearances of teenage girls.
2. With less than five years to live, he couldn't let his daughter see him like this, and he had no time to delay any longer.
3. His death will make some people pay more attention to Navia.
Judging from the current outcome, Carles' actions were very wise. He successfully bought time and prevented his daughter from being put in danger or targeted by the mastermind.
After all, besides Su Hao, others also seemed to be paying attention to Navia, such as Clarinde, Chiori, Charlotte, and others.
Putting everything else aside, it seems that even Funina knows Navia's name, which shows just how much attention she receives.
Perhaps it was because of the high level of attention Navia received, and the important evidence in Kares's possession, that the killer in the serial disappearances of the girls dared not easily take action against her.
"Damn it..." Navia said, her voice trembling with sobs, "So, to protect me, you chose to die silently?"
Myles looked at the sobbing Navia, sighed, and explained, "Miss, you've been misunderstanding something all along. What the boss wanted to give you wasn't an umbrella, but a sword."
"If the boss is fortunate enough to hear you say that you want to give an explanation to everyone involved in this matter... he will be very pleased."
At this moment, everyone present fell silent because of the matter concerning Carles and Navia, the father and daughter.
Not to mention Navia's complicated feelings at this moment, even those who were watching and listening were also extremely complicated and didn't know what to say.
Black Ella really wanted to say, "We've talked so much, let's get to the point!"
But Ella told Black Ella not to speak, since everyone was still immersed in the sad atmosphere of Navia and her father.
It's best not to say anything that might spoil the mood. Anyway, the butler said he has a clue and will definitely reveal it eventually, so there's no rush.
And... the young master was watching all of this with great interest.
After hearing Ella's words, Black Ella looked to the side and found that Su Hao was watching all of this with great interest.
This made Black Ella silently shut her mouth, deciding not to say anything more, since the young master was interested, she wouldn't say anything more.
Chapter 558 How come there are traitors everywhere?
Yes, Su Hao listened with great interest. Why?
Because he had never heard of these stories before; in his opinion, they were quite interesting.
Although Fontaine didn't give Su Hao any warning when he transmigrated, he suddenly had a strange feeling as he watched Navia and Miles' conversation.
That was when I felt like I had returned to my past life, playing Genshin Impact and watching the story unfold.
Yes, this feeling is very nostalgic, so Su Hao listened silently, and besides, wasn't Myles talking about something?
Therefore, he didn't say much. However, what Su Hao didn't expect was that several years ago, someone had already discovered the connection between the serial disappearances of girls and Le Si.
Unfortunately, the other person was nearing the end of their life, and he couldn't expose the matter, otherwise his daughter's life would be in danger.
At the same time, Su Hao was also very curious about what the important clues that Miles had regarding the serial disappearances of girls were.
While Su Hao was wondering, Navia also took a deep breath and said in a complicated tone, "Just how many roundabout ways is that old man trying to go through..."
"No, he never expected to see the day when I understand him, so he probably prepared all this..."
"Does he really trust me that much? What if I... couldn't have gotten here at all, and Su Hao and the others didn't come to help? What should I do then?"
At this moment, Navia burst into tears. She had always been very positive and optimistic, as if nothing could defeat her.
But now, she cried, just like Funina not long ago, her emotions suddenly collapsing.
Seeing Navia like this, Su Hao comforted her, saying, "At least your father gave you the right to choose, and he gave you enough time to grow."
Gan Yu nodded slightly. Looking at Navia who was crying, she comforted her, "Yes, now you have the right to choose whether to hold an umbrella or a sword."
"Many people have no choice in their own path and can only passively walk forward."
Shen He silently took out a tissue and handed it to Navia, saying calmly, "You have a good father."
At this moment, Shen He's voice carried a hint of envy, because of her father... sigh.
Ella and Black Ella remained silent, because they felt nothing about it, and in their view, Carles had perhaps done what he considered to be the best he could.
But he still didn't do better. He died and that was the end of it all, but the things he didn't do well during his lifetime were left for future generations to worry about.
Navia took a deep breath, seemingly calming herself down, and slowly said, "Yes, perhaps... according to his plan, if I wanted, I could live a worthless life."
"Fortunately, he rarely confides in me, so he doesn't really understand me. He was really overthinking this."
"Myles, what is that crucial clue?"
At this point, Navia also asked Myles what the key clue was.
As soon as Navia said those words, everyone's attention became focused. Were they finally getting to the point?
Although everyone was deeply moved by Navia's story with her father, it was now most important to get down to business.
Miles nodded seriously, then looked at everyone and said, "It's the place where [Les] is made, which is essentially the location of their headquarters."
"When threatening the other party, the boss did not reveal the contents of this trump card; however, this clue was extremely limited."
Upon hearing Miles's words, everyone was stunned on the spot, because the place where [Les] was made was equivalent to the enemy's heart.
“Now that we know this place, why don’t we just rush in?” Charlotte said simply and bluntly, as a reporter, especially one who often reports the truth.
Sometimes, Charlotte is not afraid of her own life or death at all, and she always rushes to the front line because of this spirit.
That's why, at a crucial moment, they obtained important clues and even uncovered the truth.
"Yeah, why don't you just rush in?" Chiori was also a little puzzled. If they had investigated to such a deep location, why not rush in and find all the valuable clues in one go?
Given the strength of the Rose Society back then, they could have easily gathered a large number of people in a short period of time, stormed the enemy's location, obtained a lot of evidence, and found the suspects.
“It’s not that simple.” Gan Yu shook her head and said very seriously, “Eliminating the headquarters is easy, but if the mastermind escapes or we alert them, it could very well turn what was supposed to be a successful operation into a failure.”
Yes, Gan Yu has a lot of experience in this area. After all, there have been far too many similar situations since Liyue Harbor was established.
Therefore, Gan Yu takes this matter quite seriously.
“Yes.” Xia Worei nodded seriously. She sighed and said with a headache, “Although we know where the enemy’s headquarters is right away, this situation is really a headache.”
"After framing D'Artagnan, will these guys retreat overnight to prevent the Fools from finding that location?"
"This information was originally quite valuable, at least after D'Artagnan was framed, but now... it's full of unknowns."
Su Hao nodded in agreement; he thought so too. After all, whether from an emotional or rational perspective, the mastermind behind the scenes had framed D'Artagnan, the executor of the Fools.
They will definitely try to retreat rather than leave themselves vulnerable to others.
Because this is a truly life-threatening matter, would that person be so foolish as to leave a fatal flaw for others?
Shen He silently shut her mouth, because she had originally thought the same way, but seeing that everyone was against it, she remained silent.
"Yes."
Myles nodded seriously, then sighed and said, "That's what the master thinks too. We know nothing about the situation inside headquarters, how many clues we can find, or what kind of people we can catch."
"But if an intrusion is carried out, it means a full-scale declaration of war against the other side."
"Considering all the reasons, and the worst outcome being nothing at all, it also hastened the arrival of the thing the boss least wanted to see."
This organization had been around for over ten years. Although the Rose Society was very famous in Fontainebleau at the time, Kares still did not make up his mind to eradicate it.
At first, Miles couldn't understand it, but later he realized that if they declared war on the other side...
The young lady's safety cannot be guaranteed, and secondly, it's impossible to predict what the other party might do when cornered.
"And... it's now basically confirmed that there's a mole within the security force." Chiori said with some helplessness, "Mr. Kares must have had a very difficult time back then."
Xia Worei remained silent, as she couldn't say much about the presence of a mole among her colleagues.
Navia also sighed, recalling the situation back then, and realized the predicament her father had fallen into.
“But things are different now.” Navia quickly rallied, saying confidently, “With everyone’s help, we can definitely eliminate [Les], end the serial disappearances of girls, and clear the name of Dattaria, the executor of the Fools!”
Myles looked at Navia and nodded seriously. Then he said with emotion, "If the master could see you like this, Miss, he would probably be very pleased."
Sylph nodded slightly, thinking that if the master saw the young lady's current appearance, he would definitely feel very gratified.
“However, on the other hand,” Su Hao said calmly to Myles, “you can give us the address, and I will have Ella investigate. Unless the person behind this has reached the level of a demon god, this will be a crushing defeat.”
Yes, Su Hao spoke up. He felt that with Black Ella around, many things could be saved a lot of effort, now that they knew where the [Les] headquarters was.
It would be better to investigate directly. Even if you don't find anything, it's still better than talking here and being wary of others.
"Huh?" Miles was slightly taken aback, then he tentatively said, "But wouldn't this alert them?"
“Time is running out.” Su Hao looked at Myles with some helplessness and said, “The current situation is that if we don’t find out the mastermind soon, we can only wait and wait. After the trial starts tomorrow night or tonight, Dadalia will probably really go to jail.”
"To put it more seriously, the Fools will definitely turn against the Fontaine government, and then even if Vilette suppresses the Fools."
"The next step will probably be for winter to break out into war with Fontaine."
Su Hao didn't know what the original plot was like, but now, in order to resolve the Fontaine prophecy, Arecino brought in almost half of the Fatui's elite forces.
The majority of them were still the Fools soldiers led by D'Artagnan.
At this moment, D'Artagnan is clearly being wronged. If Fontaine follows the proper procedures, he will inevitably be found guilty.
Therefore, they must speed up their actions.
"Huh?! War... war?!" Myles' eyes widened slightly. He had thought things might be serious, since Lord Su Hao had just mentioned something about the Fontaine prophecy.
But Miles never imagined it would escalate to the point of war between the two countries; this was no small matter.
Or rather, compared to the serial disappearances of girls and the [Les] incident.
This is the most terrifying thing. If Winter and Fontaine go to war, how many people will die? And given the Foolish Clan's domineering behavior, this is probably an unimaginable disaster.
"!!!!!!"
Navia's eyes widened as well. At that moment, she seemed to realize why Su Hao and his group had rushed over overnight.
"That... address is..."
Myles made no attempt to hide anything and immediately handed over the address to Su Hao and his group.
Black Ella and Ella glanced at the address and realized that they didn't recognize the area at all.
After all, they were unfamiliar with the area of Fontainebleau, so it was normal for them not to know anything about it.
