Fontaine Grand Stage, come if you are destined to

That Villette stood silently under the rain, looking into the distance with a dazed look on her face.

But soon Villette came to his senses again. He felt someone approaching from behind, but he did not move.

After a while, a black umbrella shielded the rain from Villette's head.

"Then Lord Villette, being caught in the rain is not a good habit."

The voice was obviously Ron's. He noticed that Villette had left and followed with an umbrella.

"Thank you."

Villette thanked him and took the umbrella.

Although he had no use for it, he was unwilling to reject the other party's kindness.

"Then Lord Villette, according to the people who were with him at the time, he was sweating all over and looked a little pale. It seemed that he had been having health problems for some time."

"But he suppressed the pain in his body and finished the work in front of him before he fell to the ground."

"But when he finally fell, everyone saw that he was smiling."

Ron paused, then continued speaking to Villette.

"This is what we are pursuing. It doesn't matter even if we have to sacrifice our lives for it. Lord Villette doesn't need to feel sad for us."

"Then Lord Villette should be able to feel that the noise in the room has disappeared, and everyone has returned to the work in front of them, and will not stop until the moment they burn out."

"I know, but..."

Villette wanted to say something, but in the end she couldn't open her mouth.

The Villette looked across the room again, then shook her head.

"I have to go now."

"Thank you for the umbrella. I'll come and return it to you tomorrow."

Villette was holding a black umbrella, walking slowly away in the rain until her figure completely disappeared from Ron's sight.

Ron just calmly watched the figure of Villette disappear from in front of him, his body motionless, as if he was thinking about something.

……

Late at night, everyone was still busy revising the Fontaine Law, with no intention of resting at all. It seemed that the death of someone today did not have much impact on them.

Just at this moment, the door was suddenly pushed open.

"You are breaking the law, do you know that?!"

"Take them all away!"

A group of special patrol team members in uniform filled the room, then controlled everyone in the room and marched them out.

"What are you doing? Did you catch the wrong person?!"

Everyone looked confused and started asking questions.

"That's right. Lord Villette accused you of working too much overtime and causing a serious negative impact on the work atmosphere in Fontaine, so he found you guilty."

"Don't worry, it's just a minor crime. We'll let you go after two days!"

After hearing each other's explanation, everyone was even more confused. It took them a long time to come back to their senses and they shouted angrily.

"No, we're not leaving. I still have work to do!"

"Yes, I'm in good shape, and I can still curl!"

"Do you know who we are? Let us go, or I'll send you all to jail!"

Although everyone protested strongly, it was completely useless. The special patrol team took them all away without any explanation.

"Hey, wake up."

At this time, someone noticed Ron who was sleeping soundly in the corner, and he was even drooling on the ground.

Looking at this completely different style of painting, the special patrol team member had a strange expression on his face, but he quickly stepped forward to wake him up.

"Um...Is it time to go to work?"

When Ron woke up from his sleep, he stretched.

"No, it's time to go to jail."

Seeing the smiles on the special patrol team members' faces, Ron smiled helplessly.

"Since you want to arrest me, you have to give me a reason."

"What about the others? Were they captured by you as well?"

"They were too arrogant and ruined the working atmosphere of Fontaine, so they were arrested."

After hearing the other party's words, Ron nodded.

"Then I should be fine, I'm not as unrestrained as them."

"No, you too."

"Although you don't work overtime as often as they do, you often skip work before the end of the working day, which also ruins the working atmosphere at Fontaine."

"Mr. Ron, come with us!"

The special patrol team member made a "please" gesture, Ron smiled, and then took the initiative to walk out of the room.

"By the way, please say 'thank you' to Mr. Villette for me."

After hearing Ron's words, the special patrol team members were stunned for a moment.

Then he looked at Ron's receding figure, and although he didn't know the reason, he still spoke.

"Ok, no problem."

……

The next day, news spread throughout Fontaine that the water goddess Funina would soon fight the Fatui [Executor] Tartaglia in a week's time and that the battle would be broadcast live nationwide.

The newspapers were all filled with reports about this incident, and the people of Fontaine had already begun discussing it heatedly.

"This is the first time Lady Funina has taken action."

"I'm really looking forward to seeing Funina show off her great power as the goddess of water."

"I have to wait a week to watch the show. It's such torture!"

“Tartaria? Wasn’t he the [Executive Officer] who only lasted a second in front of Villette? What’s so good about a fight like that?”

"Hey, don't say that. Being able to hold out for a second in front of that Villette is already amazing! We should give Mr. Tartaglia a little more encouragement!"

……

Linny and Linnet, the siblings who were preparing for a magic show, were completely confused after hearing the news. They couldn't figure out whether Tartaglia had deliberately entered Melo Petersburg.

Yes, the previous case was true.

No way, Tartaglia is really too good at causing trouble.

However, the magic show was about to begin, and as it related to the investigation of the [Cardinal of Oracle and Judgment], Linny could not devote any extra energy to this matter for the time being.

Linnie has already decided that he wants to perform a magic trick of bringing people to life.

In this way, while performing magic, he would be able to find an opportunity to get close to the core of the [Cardinal of Oracle and Judgment].

Because the security team did not allow him to scout the location in advance, and the arrangement of various mechanisms was also completed by the security team, he only had about one minute to collect intelligence on the day of the magic show.

But Linny was full of confidence, one minute was enough for him!

After conveying the information about Tartaglia to Arlecino, Linnie looked at Linnet and said.

"Linnet, let's rehearse again."

"Okay, brother."

……

On the other side, Navilette, who was working at Momang Palace, couldn't help feeling a headache after hearing the news.

Even though she was in prison, Furninna still gave him no peace of mind.

Originally, Villette wanted to suppress the matter about Tartaglia, try to let the people on Dongzhidong know as late as possible, and then ask Tartaglia some questions.

As a result, everyone in Fontainebleau knows about it today, and I guess other countries will know about it too in a week.

If you want to fight, just fight. Why do you have to make it known to everyone?

Then Villette doesn't understand why Furnena is promoting the bullying of a rookie like Tartaglia (the plot is set more than two years earlier than the original, and Tartaglia is much weaker than when he was in Fontaine in the original plot).

By then, wouldn't the battle be over in just a few seconds?

That Villette sighed and shook her head.

He had no way to deal with Funina's reckless behavior, after all, she was the water god of Fontaine.

Speaking of this, Villette became angry. He was not the water god of Fontaine, but he had to do the most tiring work every day and was harassed by Funina from time to time.

He really wants to retire and live a life of drinking tea, walking birds and watching plays every day. Such a life must be very comfortable!

He is already over 500 years old. When can he retire?

Villette took a deep breath. Seeing how unreliable Fernina seemed, he felt that his retirement might be a long way off.

Since it was not very realistic, Villette didn't want to waste time thinking about it.

In addition to asking Tartaglia some questions, the question that Villette was most concerned about was why the [Cardinal of the Oracle] finally gave such a result.

It is obvious that Tartaglia already has an alibi, and that photo is the irrefutable evidence.

But he was still found guilty. Does this mean that there is some connection between the criminal and Tartaglia?

But if Tartaglia was not lying and this was his first time in Fontaine, where did this connection come from?

Or... is there something wrong with the decision of the Cardinal of Decree?

At this point, even Villette couldn't help but doubt whether the [Cardinal Oracle] could really be fair and just. He must find an opportunity to ask Funina about this matter. After all, Funina was the creator of the [Cardinal Oracle].

At this moment, Villette caught a glimpse of the black umbrella in the corner, and suddenly remembered that he had an unfulfilled promise, so he picked up the umbrella and walked towards the headquarters of the Law Enforcement Court, where all the people captured by the special patrol team were detained.

It is called detention, but in fact it is just a restriction of activities.

Narvilette just didn't want to see the tragedy happen again, so he used a tougher approach.

Ron told him yesterday during their conversation that that was the fate of people like them, there was no need to resist, just accept it calmly.

"However, Villette did not agree with the other party. He believed that he had the ability to save these people. He could not bear to watch them die from overwork."

Even if I force them to stop, it doesn't matter even if they hate me.

He originally thought that Ron would question him why he did this, but the gratitude brought by the special patrol team members made Villette feel much calmer.

Soon, Villette found Ron and returned the umbrella to him. Ron just smiled and took the umbrella.

"Aren't you going to ask me why I captured you as well?"

"Isn't it because I often skip work that I ruin the working atmosphere at Fontaine?"

After hearing what Villette said, Ron smiled and spoke.

That Villette looked at the other person, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

"Yes, that is indeed the reason."

"You have violated the law, so accept your punishment here."

"Then is it the dessert made by Miss Venani that Mr. Villette is talking about?"

"That's a really despairing scene... Ahem, what I mean is, Miss Venani, the snacks you made are really delicious."

Seeing Villette winking at him, Ron looked behind him and immediately changed his words.

The person who appeared in front of the two people at this time was Vinani, who was obviously much thinner than before.

Although she is still fatter than in the photo, she can now confidently say that the person in the photo is her, she was just very thin at that time.

Because she was so fat that she couldn't carry out her mission, Vinani, who had nothing to do, was inspired by her life during her kidnapping. Now she has become a pastry chef who specializes in making snacks for the prisoners.

This is the pastry chef who believes in Cthulhu...

At this time, Venani looked at Ron with a smile and spoke.

"Is that so Mr. Ron?"
