After seeing the four gods, Ying knew very well that one cannot judge what a country's gods are like simply by the descriptions of the people.
Just like Wendy. In the eyes of Mond believers such as Barbara, Wendy is an omnipotent and great existence. However, in private, that guy is just a drunkard and a big liar.
Even the famous Rock God Morax is actually a guy who drinks tea and walks his bird all day long and never carries money when he goes out. If those who worship the Rock God knew about this image, I am afraid their three views would be shattered.
Therefore, Ying is now very curious about what this water god, who is said to be wise and powerful by the people of Fontaine and is also a well-known big star in Fontaine, will be like in private.
Leaving aside the performance of the water goddess Funina, as time passed, the opera house was soon full and the performance was about to begin.
As the lights dimmed, the Linney siblings took the stage and began to perform their wonderful magic to everyone present.
Ying and Paimeng were originally feeling emotional. They didn't expect that the journey to Fontaine would be so smooth. Unlike the previous countries, they were involved in major events shortly after arriving.
However, these thoughts had just appeared for a short time. As the fireworks on the stage were ignited, with a loud bang, Linny's magic props fell from the sky and crushed the magic box. At the same time, a figure also fell on the stage.
The sudden change plunged the entire opera house into silence, but soon the audience was in an uproar.
As a magician, Linny showed an incredible expression on his face, because his magic did not have this part, which means that there was an accident in his performance!
"The performance is suspended! The medical staff will follow me. The security team will protect the scene, control all the participants, and temporarily block the entrance and exit of the opera house!"
Seeing this, Navelette, who was sitting in the front row, immediately gave orders.
Looking at the figure lying in the magic props on the stage, Villette's eyes were as calm as a pool of water without ripples.
This is how he looks when he has entered the working state. Now, he is no longer the audience Na Villette, but the supreme judge of Fontaine, Na Villette!
At the same time, Funina, who was standing high in the stands, was looking at the tragic scene on the stage in astonishment.
After being stunned, Finina looked at Ying and Paimon in the audience. She had already noticed these two famous guys when they entered the opera house.
Through the reports from her subordinates, Funina learned about Ying and Paimon's actions after they arrived in Fontainebleau. The calm and peaceful Fontainebleau made Funina completely unable to imagine that these two guys would cause big trouble in whichever country they went to.
However, after the accident during Linny's magic show, Funina was completely convinced.
Wow, you guys are really worthy of it!
After a while, the medical staff and security personnel completed their work, and Villette stood on the stage.
"The person in the magic box has unfortunately died. The deceased was named Cowell and was one of the supporting performers of Linney's magic troupe."
That Villette looked at everyone and described the situation on the stage to everyone.
"The fireworks on the stage ignited the rope above the water tank, which caused the tank to fall. As for why the person in the tank was Cowell, this is not known for the time being."
"After searching, the security team was unable to find the girl. She had vanished into thin air. This situation is no longer a simple stage accident, because this incident has many..."
Villette glanced coldly at everyone in the opera house.
"It has many characteristics of the serial disappearance of young girls case"
After hearing what Villette said, the audience was naturally shocked again. The serial disappearance of young girls was one of the most famous unsolved cases in Fontaine, and the first case happened more than 20 years ago.
Every time a case occurs, there is a missing girl. How was she captured, by whom, and where did she go in the end? Everything is like a fog, making it impossible to find any trace.
So, when everyone heard that this accident had the characteristics of a serial disappearance of young girls, they were shocked.
After all, in the past, the disappearance of young girls was relatively secretive, but this time, it happened in full view of everyone, especially since the Opikley Opera House 037 has been completely blocked. Doesn't this mean that the murderer of the serial disappearance of young girls is right next to them?
Almost instantly, most of the audience's eyes turned to Linny who was standing in the front. As the performer of this magic trick, he was undoubtedly the most suspicious.
But soon, most people shook their heads.
It’s not that they believe Linny, but they think that Linny can’t be so stupid.
This is the Opicle Opera House. Today's performance is being watched by the Supreme Inquisitor Navillae and the Water Goddess Phonina. If the murderer is really Linny, then he is committing the crime under the noses of the Supreme Inquisitor and the Water Goddess. How arrogant must a person be to think that he can deceive these two?
Even if we take a step back, Linny's age doesn't match. The serial disappearance of girls first occurred twenty years ago, and twenty years ago, Linny was probably not born yet, right?
Of course, no one directly ruled out Linny's suspicion. Who knows what secrets are hidden here.
Everything has to wait until the case is completed.
Chapter 867: The trial of the Linni siblings, the communication between Funina and Ying
The day passed quickly, and early the next morning, the Oprykle Opera House once again welcomed a large number of audiences.
Whether it was the serial disappearance of young girls or the crime being committed under the noses of the water goddess Phonina and the supreme judge Navrette, these were all points that attracted the audience. Therefore, the audience who wanted to watch the trial of the case directly packed the opera house.
As magic performers, Linny and Linnet walked up to the judgment seat, awaiting the upcoming trial.
Looking at the people talking below, Linny and Linnet looked at each other, and then looked at the person standing in front of them who was helping them defend themselves.
This is the defense officer specially provided for them by the Opikle Opera House. As a country of justice, the Opikle Opera House never lacks people engaged in legal affairs.
"Don't worry, Mr. Linnie. I have collected a lot of information. We have also found some strange things in the case. I believe these can clear your name."
The defense officer said meticulously.
As a defense lawyer, even if all the information points to Linny, he will still stand on Linny's side.
"Then I'll leave it to you."
Linnie forced himself to smile slightly, but honestly, he couldn't smile at this moment.
At the same time, in the audience.
"I never thought something like this would happen after just watching a magic show. By the way, do you think Linny and Linnet are the murderers, traveler?"
Paimon glanced at the Linni siblings on the trial seat and then asked.
"...I don't know, probably not~"
Ying was silent for a moment, and then spoke uncertainly.
As someone who had just met the Linny siblings not long ago, based on her previous interactions with them, she felt that the murderer would not be these two. Of course, it was also possible that they were all in disguise.
"Oh? You think Linnie isn't the murderer? Do you have any key information, or are you simply relying on your intuition?"
Suddenly, a voice sounded in Ying's ears, instantly attracting the attention of both her and Paimon.
The two looked in the direction where the sound came from, and then were shocked.
Because the one who spoke to them was the water goddess Fernina who was sitting in the special seats yesterday.
"Water God!"
Paimon exclaimed. Even though she had met gods from four countries, she was still surprised that a god would just walk up to her.
"Is it necessary to be so surprised? You have traveled all the way to Mondstadt, Liyue, Inazuma, and Xumi, and have met the gods of these countries, right? I am just one of them."
Funina sat elegantly in the seat next to Ying. In order to communicate with Ying, she moved from her own seat to the seat for ordinary audiences.
"Uh... that seems to make sense. No, no, why would you, the Water God, run from above to below?"
Paimon scratched his head and then asked.
"Of course, it's to meet the famous Traveler and Paimon."
Funina looked as if it was a matter of course.
"You're celebrities, and wherever you go, big things happen in that country. Not to mention, you're the protagonists of Teyvat right now, so what's wrong with paying attention to you?"
After hearing what Funina said, Ying and Paimon suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
"We didn't want to do this, but the affairs of the Seven Kingdoms are beyond our control. Tevarin's attack on Mondstadt, the death of the Rock King, the Eyehunter Order—all of these things would have happened even if we hadn't gone. We simply ended up in the right place at the right time."
Paimon said.
"No matter what, since you have already set foot in Fontaine, then I, the Water God, must meet you no matter what."
After saying this, Finina looked at Navelette who was about to open the court.
"Before you came, Fontaine had never experienced such a shocking case. This murder happened in the Opiclay Opera House, right under my and Villette's noses, and it is also connected to the serial disappearances of young girls that have plagued Fontaine for a long time."
".What do you think will be the major event that can be brought about by this incident?"
Fonina asked.
Ying and Paimon did not respond, and Finina was not surprised by this. After all, these two came to Fontaine and knew nothing about Fontaine. It would be strange if they knew what big events could be caused.
"I don't know when a prophecy started circulating in Fontainebleau."
"prophecy?"
Paimon looked confused, but she pricked up her ears anyway.
"Yes, it is a prophecy."
Finina closed her eyes, and then told her father and Paimon the prophecy that had troubled her for five hundred years.
"All the people of Fontaine are born with sin, and no matter how much the just country of Fontaine judges them, it cannot erase their sin."
"Until one day, the sea level in Fontaine will begin to rise, and the sinners will gradually be submerged by the sea."
"Eventually, everyone will dissolve in the sea, leaving only the water god weeping on his throne. Only then will the sins of the people of Fontaine be washed away."
After hearing the prophecy described by Finina, Paimon and Ying sat in their seats in a daze.
After describing the content of the prophecy, Finina looked at Ying and Paimon with a slight smile on her face.
"How about it, now you know why I came to you? This is the prophecy of Fontaine, and it is also what Villette and I believe will happen after you two come to Fontaine."
Chapter 868: The identities of the Linni brothers and sisters are exposed, and Funina knows the truth of the case
"The people of Fontaine are born burdened with sin. The sea level will rise, and eventually everyone will melt into the sea, leaving only the water god weeping on his throne..."
"Oh, what a terrifying prophecy! If something like this really happens, wouldn't the people of Fontaine..."
Paimon's face turned pale with fear. After all, this was a matter of life and death for a country.
This is the same as when Osel emerged from the sea water of Liyue's Guyun Pavilion. Both are crises that can destroy an entire country. However, compared to Osel, Fontaine's situation seems even more terrifying.
After all, Osel is a visible enemy, and as long as Liyue defeats it, the crisis can be resolved, but for Fontaine, it is just a prophecy.
Why the people of Fontaine bear the sin, why the sea level rises, and why some people melt into the sea, all of this is confusing.
"So, do you have a solution?"
Ying asked.
"If there is a solution, would I still come to you?"
Furninna spread out her hands, looking helpless.
Although she has almost solved the prophecy now, Finina will not forget that she was able to solve the prophecy by taking a shortcut.
Relying on the Super Dimensional Communication Company, she took the lead in fundamentally solving the problem of the original fetal sea water in the bodies of the people of Fontaine. However, there are still many mysteries hidden in it. Before all these mysteries are solved, she still feels that she should pretend to know nothing.
"That's it"
Ying looked at Funina and said nothing more, but turned her gaze to the trial that had already begun.
The trial in court was indeed exciting, with heated debates between the two sides. The prosecution presented various information obtained from the on-site investigation, which proved that the murderer was Linny.
Linny's defense lawyer was obviously no simple character. He noticed the strange things in the case and used them to launch a strong counterattack.
For a while, the two sides were deadlocked.
However, soon, as Linny and Linnet's identities as members of the Hearth House were exposed, everyone's eyes on the two of them changed.
"Linny and Linnet are the Fatui?"
Paimon was also shocked. She had never expected that the person who had communicated with her happily before would actually be a big villain.
"You don't know? ...That's right. The identities of the members of Hearth House are very secretive, so few people know about it. I just happened to get this information. Otherwise, I might have thought they were just simple magi."
Finina said in an inexplicable tone.
"The average person knows very little about this, and you just happened to get this information? In other words, you provided this information?"
Paimon looked at Finina.
"Yes, since there's a suspicion of a crime, a background check is definitely necessary. Simply looking at the magus's background can lead to overlooking potentially important details. However, it's a different story for a Fatui member."
The corners of Funina's mouth curled up.
"The Fatui are notorious among the nations of Teyvat. Murder, arson, kidnapping, extortion—who hasn't they done? With such a status, many insignificant details will be magnified infinitely."
"Of course, I'm not saying that every bad thing we encounter is the work of the Fatui. But think about it: if an ordinary person and a Fatui member were to do the same bad thing, who do you think is more likely to have done it?"
