Original God, Teyvat's own Great Love Immortal

"What did you say?! Isn't she the God of Water? Where else can the Heart of God be if not in her?"

"Maybe she's not even the God of Water... But her recent behavior is quite different from before. I'm a little confused. It's like she's suddenly become a different person."

Alechino's words made Rosalin feel overwhelmed.

She had been in Fontaine for a much shorter time than Arlecchino, so naturally she had no idea what she was talking about.

"Can you be more specific?"

Alechino then explained to Rosalin: "I have already done something like this to Fernina. And... it was unexpectedly successful."

"Successful? Then what?"

"Oh, you won't believe it if I tell you." Alechino chuckled and continued, "At that time, Fernina was just like today, without any servants, and she ran out alone in the middle of the night to play with the cat. I caught her and attacked her, but she suddenly knelt on the ground and begged me not to hurt her."

"I suspected she was acting at first, but later I realized that she didn't seem to be acting. Furninna is just an ordinary person without any divine power, and the Heart of God is not in her at all."

"I think that Funina is just a substitute that Fontaine put on the stage. The real water god... is someone else."

Rosalyn begs to differ.

She took out a newspaper article about Furninha smashing a group of mechanical guards with one blow as evidence.

"If Funina is really just an ordinary person, how do we explain the photo in the newspaper? That power is not weak at all. I ask myself, even if I use all my strength, I can't destroy so many mechanical guards with one blow. I'm afraid even you may not be able to do it, right?"

Alechino sighed, "Alas~ This is also what I can't figure out. As I said just now, the previous Fernina and the current Fernina are two completely different people. I suspect... there are two Ferninas in Fontaine. The usually dull-witted one is a fake substitute, and the one who appeared recently is the real water goddess Fernina."

Rosalyn grinned. "But this one looks really stupid."

The two turned their gaze back to Funina.

She was directing the relocation of the convoy, gesturing and backing away, when she accidentally stepped on some wet moss and fell on her back. She stood up with a grimace, stomped on and cursed at the moss under her feet, and almost fell again.

"..."

"If you want to tell whether it's real or fake, just give it a try and you'll know."

Rosalin put on her hood and walked towards Funina.

Even until she came behind Finina, the water god still had no reaction and was still concentrating on the things in front of him.

Rosalyn launched a sneak attack without hesitation.

Suddenly, a blue water shield enveloped Funina and dissolved the ice cone shot by Rosalin.

Finina turned around in surprise, and was horrified when she saw the mysterious assassin behind her.

Then another stream of water spurted out from the necklace on her chest, hitting the assassin and sending her flying.

"There's an assassin! There's an assassin trying to kill the Water God!"

"Catch assassins!"

Rosalin's face was distorted beneath the mask.

Damn it! She looked so stupid, was she deliberately trying to trick people into attacking her? She was fooled by Alecino!

Seeing that the situation was not good, Rosaline did not dare to stay any longer. She blew out a gust of cold air to drive back the townspeople who were rushing up, and disappeared from everyone's sight.

Finina had just recovered from the shock of the moment. She held up the necklace to her chest and said in disbelief, "Sherlock didn't lie to me! It really works!"

"Lady Furninna! Are you okay?"

Navia ran over in a hurry.

"I'm fine. It was just a small assassin. I beat him away."

"How dare you carry out an assassination on my territory! Damn it! I will never let it go! Don't worry, Lady Funina, I will definitely use all the power of the Thorn Rose Society to catch this assassin!"

"Let's finish the relocation first."

By the afternoon, the news that Lady Funina had been assassinated reached Lu Sheng's ears.

He leisurely crossed his legs and drank tea, unable to suppress the smile on his face.

It doesn't take a brain to guess that this was done by the Fatui, or maybe it was done by Rosaline herself.

Whatever that stupid woman with big breasts and no brains wants to do is up to her own calculations.

Everything had been arranged for her long ago.

When Lu Sheng thought of Rosaline's embarrassed and angry face after she failed, he couldn't help but snort.

Anyway, there is no need to worry about Funina for the time being.

After drinking tea, Lu Sheng stood up, put on his coat, and greeted Clorinde.

"Come with me Clorinde, we have a new case to investigate."

Although Marcelle has been arrested, the real culprit behind him has not yet surfaced.

Since Rosalin said it wasn't her, her suspicions could basically be ruled out. After all, judging from the time, her information that she had just arrived in Fontaine was absolutely credible.

It is unlikely that Alecino would do that either. She is a Fontaine Wolf and not a madman like Doctor Sanbing. She will definitely not allow Marcelle to kill the Fontaine girl casually.

In other words, there is at least one Fatui secretly eroding all levels of Fontaine.

If I don't get rid of the poisonous blood, it will be a lot more difficult for me to take over Fontaine in the future.

Fontaine: Chapter 165: Gamble

"Master, what case are we going to investigate?"

Clorinde quickly changed her clothes and followed Lu Sheng, asking curiously.

"Go to the Shadow Chaser Court. I need to recheck the stolen goods I seized from Marcelle."

"Marcelle's stolen goods? Isn't this case closed? Why are we still investigating him?"

"It's over? No, it's not as simple as you think. The interests behind this are beyond what a Shadow Hunter like you can imagine."

Marcelle, a businessman, can own a mechanical police force. It is hard to imagine how corrupted Fontaine's political system has become.

Compared with this one, Inazuma is considered fair and honest.

The more developed the place, the more sophisticated their methods are.

Now Pinocchio and the Doctor are dead, and Sniper is working as a cream puff on a deserted island where no one can find him. The body I gave him was a female one, and by now a bunch of little Hillbillies must have been born.

The rest, excluding the young man, the lady and the servant, there are still five left.

The captain was getting angry, and after eliminating the three candidates, there were still the third girl, the fifth rooster, the ninth rich man, and the unknown tenth.

In fact, there is also a clown who is the chief official, but the possibility of him taking action personally is low, so it can be ruled out.

After some rough reasoning, Lu Sheng has narrowed the scope of suspects to the smallest possible number.

All that remained was to be inferred from the traces in Marcelle's stolen goods.

The two of them arrived at the Shadow Chasing Court headquarters. Clorinde showed her face, and Lu Sheng easily had access to everything that was copied from Marcelle's house.

"What are we looking for?" asked Clorinde.

"Ledgers, correspondence, and the like."

The two searched for a long time but found nothing.

Apart from mountains of gold, silver and jewelry, Lu Sheng had nothing he wanted.

The only account book of the Chamber of Commerce was a blank one that had been tampered with, and there was not a single problem to be found.

"There's a problem. Something here has been moved."

Lu Sheng came to the conclusion immediately.

Combined with the fact that the murderer suddenly changed his confession after entering the prison that night, it is not difficult to infer that all levels of Fontaine have been seriously infiltrated.

There are bad people among the masses.

"impossible!"

Clorinde immediately denied Lu Sheng's speculation.

"The Shadow Chaser Court is where I work. The rules and regulations are very strict. It's impossible for someone to sneak into the evidence room and destroy the evidence."

"I have said many times that nothing is impossible in this world."

"But... I can't imagine how sophisticated the other party's methods would be if someone could infiltrate the Shadow Chaser Court without being detected."

"Sometimes people's behavior is beyond their control, just like you can't understand why Cales would rather die in the duel than defend himself."

Lu Sheng thought for a moment and said to Clorinde, "Let's make a bet. Let's bet whether there is a traitor in your Shadow Chaser Court. If I win, you must obey me unconditionally from now on. If you win, I will teach you a set of Inazuma swordsmanship."

Clorinde hesitated for a moment, but still chose to believe the Shadow Chaser.

"What kind of bet?"

Lu Sheng asked Clorinde to come closer and whispered a few words in her ear.

"I see."

Clorinde nodded, then walked out of the evidence room expressionlessly and said to Melusin outside, "I found some suspicious clues among Marcelle's stolen goods. I am now applying to retrieve the Chamber of Commerce's account books for a secondary investigation. Please write an application report and send the things to my office."

"Okay sir!"

Afterwards, Clorinde and Lu Sheng left the Shadow Chasing Court.

Not long after, a hunter from the Shadow Chaser Court walked into the evidence room carrying a kerosene lamp. His face looked very ugly, and he was anxiously searching through a pile of evidence.

Finally, he found the account book and quickly flipped through it.

"What's wrong? What's wrong? Damn it! I've already..."

crunch--

The door behind me was suddenly pushed open.

The hunter was startled and immediately hid the account book behind him.

He turned his head and saw Clorinde's gloomy face.

Cold sweat instantly soaked my back.

"Sith... why?" Clorinde asked the hunter in front of her in a cold voice, "I promoted you from the bottom myself, why would you do such a thing?"

"Captain Clorinde...I...I don't understand what you are saying. Didn't you ask for a secondary investigation of the evidence?"

"This is a clerical job. You shouldn't be here. And...what are you panicking about? And why are you hiding the account books?"

Sis's face was pale and his expression was stiff. He forced himself to answer, "I... I just happened to be free and wanted to help my colleagues share the work..."

"is it?"

Clorinde walked slowly towards Sis. Just as she raised her hand, Sis suddenly opened the lid of the kerosene lamp and put the account book on the fire.

"Don't come over here! If you come any closer I'll burn it!"

Clorinde froze in place, giving a bitter smile in disappointment, "I just want you to give me the account book..."

Sith was filled with remorse and felt infinite despair in his heart.

He knew that his life was over.

"I didn't mean to do this! I don't want to betray you! You know about my sister's illness! I need money! I have no other choice! I really need money! The salary from Zhuyingting is not enough... If I delay any longer, I will have no sister!"

Clorinde gritted her teeth, suppressed her anger and tried to appease the other party: "I will find a way to treat your sister's illness. You should stop your criminal behavior immediately and tell the truth about who ordered you to do these things. If you confess, you can get a lenient treatment."

Sis' eyes were filled with tears, and he shook his head in despair, "No... It's impossible. If I tell you, my sister will die immediately... Clorinde, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!"

Before he could finish his words, Sith burned the account book and immediately pulled out a dagger and stabbed it into his own throat.

He knew that he was no match for Clorinde and this was the only way to save his sister's life.

Clorinde had no time to stop it and watched her men die in front of her.

She pulled out the half-drawn sword that was stuck in the scabbard, and the anger in her heart reached an unprecedented peak.

At this time, Lu Sheng appeared quietly and slowly took away Sith's soul.

But Clorinde could not see this scene. She was left with endless anger and grief. She hugged Sith's body and swore secretly: "No matter who it is, I will make him pay a heavy price!"

Lu Sheng secretly interrogated Sith's soul.

With his cruel methods, Sith couldn't even last a minute before he told the truth.

The fact is that he doesn't know who the culprit behind the scenes is, but he has a dark account for receiving remittances, and the one who transferred the money to him is Northland Bank.
