"Lady Funina has already applied to overturn her conviction. I didn't expect you didn't know about this."

"It seems that the Duke must be very busy recently!"

The girl smiled at Leosli and spoke softly. Her words seemed normal, but if all the trouble was caused by the other party, then this sentence would be a complete mockery and provocation.

"Reverse the verdict?"

After hearing the girl's words, Leosli was stunned for a moment, and then a more terrifying guess emerged in his mind.

That is the imprisonment of the water goddess Finina, which was also designed by the other party!

Having seen the other side's miraculous means of planting spies, Leosli had to raise the girl's danger level several levels again.

As for the girl's ridicule and provocation, he didn't take it to heart. He had not been affected by such low-level means for a long time.

Leosli began to think about the reason why the girl did this. No matter how he thought about it, it was not in her interest to let the water goddess Finina return to the water at this moment.

Unless, she was sure that the water goddess Fernina would take her with her when she left Melopenteryg? !

Oops, it’s still too late!

After figuring out that the girl's initial plan had succeeded, Leosley felt even worse.

"Ms. Emily, you have really impressed me recently!"

Leosli stared into the girl's eyes, emitting a powerful aura, and spoke word by word.

"What are you talking about, Your Excellency the Duke? I don't think we have met recently. I don't quite understand."

The girl still had a smile on her face, and at the same time, she exuded an aura that was no less than that of Leosley.

The two auras, one blue and one white, collided with each other and were evenly matched.

The girl aroused Leosli's desire to fight, but he finally restrained himself.

Eventually he changed and made some compromises for the sake of the rules of Melo Petersburg.

If he had no worries in the past, it would be enough for him to know that the girl was the culprit of everything. Even if there was no evidence, he would use his fists to make the other party confess everything.

Leosli withdrew his oppressive aura, and at the same time the girl did the same thing.

Leosli gave the girl one last deep look and spoke.

"Well, since Miss Emily doesn't understand, forget it."

"But there are some things I still need to remind Miss Emily. The reason I am abiding by the rules of this game is because I still have the patience to continue playing."

"Miss Emily, I hope you are doing well and that the purpose of the Mutual Aid Association has not changed."

"Thank you for your advice, Your Excellency the Duke. I will consider it carefully."

Leosley left. If he didn't want to cause chaos in Melo Petersburg again, now was not a good time to attack the girl.

Moreover, he did not expect that the target of the mysterious force this time was the water goddess Finina. He had to remind Villette about this matter. Next, after the girl followed the water goddess Finina to leave Melopenerburg, he would need to conduct a thorough investigation inside and find out all the traitors.

Not long after, Leosley returned to the Duke's office and prepared to write to Villette.

But at this moment, he received a letter from Villette in advance.

The content of the letter was mostly about asking about the water goddess Finina. After Leosli considered it for a while, he added a part to his original content and then sent the reply letter.

He hoped that the girl would be heedful of his warning and would not have any intentions towards the Ark.

The pointer on the valve in the restricted area is getting closer and closer to the limit, and they don't have much time left.

Along with the activity of the mysterious force, the originally calm valve pointer also continued to rise. Fontaine's abnormality, all this seemed to point to the prophecy being about to happen.

If that really comes to the point, the Venetian might be the last hope for the people of Fontaine.

It was better for the other party to leave. As the water god, Finina would have ways to deal with some crises, and he could also take this opportunity to complete the construction of the Vengolai.

And even if something really happened, there was Villette watching. If those two couldn't handle it, then he, a mortal, would have no way out.

Thinking of this, Leosli's serious expression eased a little, and then he made himself a cup of tea.

Leosli had never considered the possibility that Funina would voluntarily stay in Melo Petersburg, because although the situation in Melo Petersburg was much better than that in the outside world, that was for the lower class people.

For someone like Funina, who is in a high position, coming to Melopensky to start all over again is not a wise choice.

……

Funina's application for a retrial of her case was quickly approved, and the news spread throughout the streets of Fontaine.

The people were shocked when they heard the news. When Funina was convicted and sent to Melo Petersburg, it was already a big news for Fontaine. Now, things seem to have taken a shocking turn? !

Of course, some people think that Fininna is not satisfied with her punishment. After all, she is the god of water. Why should she be punished for committing crimes like ordinary people? Moreover, it is not a good thing for a god to have a stain on his body. So this time Fininna wants to exonerate herself.

Charlotte, who had already obtained permission to enter Melopentery to interview the water goddess Fernina, almost broke down in tears. She had already packed her things, but now she was told that she didn't have to go.

Do you know how much effort she put into getting this opportunity? !

But Charlotte soon cheered up again. She smelled big news from the recent news!

Soon the day came for the re-opening of the case of the water goddess Funina, and Funina finally waited for her agent, or in today's terms, her defense lawyer.

"Hello, Ms. Funina, my name is Aqiang, you can just call me Lawyer Aqiang."

……

Chapter 16: You're on the witness stand and you still want to run away?

That Villette frowned as she looked at the letter sent by Leosley.

What does it mean that Funina is fine now, but may be in trouble soon?

He was also asked to investigate information about the girl named Emily. The person who did the best job in the entire Fontaine intelligence work was Leosli. How could he investigate something that even he couldn't find out?

In the letter, Leosley threw the matter to him as if it were a hot potato, which gave Villette a headache. His current work was already busy enough, and Leosley was adding to his burden.

However, Navillatte, who knew Leosley well, felt that this was not something the other party could do, and wondered if there was any reason behind this.

But soon Navelette gave up exploring the issue further.

The most urgent task is to send someone to investigate the information of the girl. As for Fininna, he and Leosli encountered similar problems. If he gently reminded Fininna that the girl might have ulterior motives in approaching her, Fininna might not take it seriously.

But if he explained it directly to Funina, without any evidence, he would not be convincing at all, and might even backfire, causing Funina to become more distant from him.

At this point, all he can do is keep an eye on the girl and hope that no accidents happen.

And now there is something that gives him an even greater headache. He certainly knows that the other party in Funina's case is innocent, and Funina is likely to manipulate the [Cardinal Oracle] to modify the verdict to be consistent with his final judgment.

But now Funina suddenly proposed to re-try the previous case. What is going on? Could it be that Funina couldn't stand the life in Melopenerburg, so she decided to overturn the verdict for herself?

Although Villette was somewhat pleased to think that Finina could tell him what happened that night, compared to this, what about the authority of the Cardinal's Oracle? If the verdict was changed so casually, how could others believe in the fairness and justice of the final decision of the Cardinal's Oracle?

If Funina asked the [Cardinal Oracle] to change the original judgment result, in the eyes of others, the [Cardinal Oracle] was completely a toy that Funina controlled at will, and she could change the final judgment of the [Trial] at will as long as she wanted.

Although Finina is the water god and her free-spirited image is consistent with the people's image, this time it involves [Judgment]. If he wants to minimize the impact of this matter, he will be busy for a while.

Not only did Furninna throw her own work to him, but she also added so much new work to him. Villette had already decided that this time, no matter what, he would delegate some of the things in his hands to Furninna and let her handle them herself.

That Villette looked out the window and sighed softly after a long moment.

Now the future of Fontaine has become unclear in his eyes...

The day of the trial soon arrived, and Villette sat in the judge's seat early.

After many days, Finina finally stood in front of her throne and looked confidently at the woman in the prosecution seat, the victim's wife.

After the girl sorted out the case, Funina was completely sure of this [trial]!

"Lady Funina looks very confident!"

"Could it be that Lady Funina is really wronged?"

"I know that Lady Funina is definitely not guilty!"

"Lady Funina, we will always support you!"

……

Hearing the cheers from the audience, Funina nodded with great satisfaction.

"Yes, don't worry, I don't want to evade this responsibility. I just want to tell you the truth of the case!"

"I will bring you a thrilling reversal next, so just keep looking forward to it!"

"Cheer, applaud! Next, I will let those people with bad intentions know that gods are not so easily manipulated!"

In response to Finina's words, the audience burst into even louder applause.

On the other hand, the victim's wife seemed to be completely overwhelmed by today's trial, and compared to the last court session, she was not as calm this time.

Standing next to the woman was her lawyer. In fact, there was no suspense about the lawyer's identity. After all, there were only two lawyers in Fontaine who had successfully passed the assessment.

The two lawyers have now clashed several times. Because the cases they handled were so unique, the verbal confrontations were extremely fierce, and each case reversal was unexpected, their fame has been growing in recent times.

Whenever they attend a [trial], the auditorium is almost always full.

Today, the two are facing off again in a case involving the water goddess Funina, and the audience is ready to have fun!

The auditorium was already full of spectators, all of whom were looking forward to what was about to happen with great excitement.

No matter what the result of this [trial] is, they will have enough fun.

If Funina succeeds in overturning the verdict, today's case will definitely be a shocking reversal!

And if Funina fails again, nothing will be more shocking than the god’s second failure. If there is, it will definitely be the god’s third failure!

And today, they will witness history with their own eyes!

……

For some reason, when Villette saw Finina's appearance at this moment, he always felt that her condition seemed to be much better than before.

Illusion?

It's impossible that during the time I was a prisoner in the Melopenerburg prison, my life was better than my life in the Momang Palace, right?

That Villette shook her head slightly, and seeing that the time was up, she immediately spoke loudly.

"The court is in session!"

"A second trial will now be held on the case involving the water goddess, Lady Funina."

"Now, the prosecutor, attorney Li Haotian, will give a detailed account of the case."

After hearing what Villette said, Lawyer Li Haotian, who was beside the woman, stood up, stared at Lawyer Aqiang who was standing in the accused seat in the distance with extremely sharp eyes, and spoke.

"Oh, my Lord, the case has caused a great deal of trouble..."

"Wait a moment."

When Villette heard the other party speak, he was overwhelmed.

It was also the first time he attended a case involving the other party, and he did not expect the other party to have such a heavy accent, so Villette changed his original plan.

"Let the security team describe the details of the case."

After hearing what Villette said, a security guard immediately stepped forward to describe the case. He seemed to be well prepared.

"…The above is the entire story of the case."

"Thanks for your hard work."

Navrette spoke, nodded to the other party, and then the guard left.

"Look, look, just like the guard said, it's obvious that my husband died in an accident."

"Why is there any need to reopen this case? This was just an accident caused by a cat. Is it possible that someone could control the cat to commit the crime?"

The woman looked a little nervous, but she still spoke her thoughts calmly.

"As the sea raider's wife has said, I also think that there is no need to re-examine this case."

"It's not like this……"

"That's just bullshit!"

Just as Funina was about to say something, lawyer Aqiang beside her slammed the armrest in front of him, interrupting her next words.

Funina was a little confused. Her defense lawyer seemed like a completely different person in the court. His aura was so strong that she felt she couldn't get a word in.

"There is an obvious loophole in this case. Since the crime scene is so remote, how could the eyewitness see the entire accident at the first moment of the crime?"

"There is a flaw!"
