Fontaine Grand Stage, come if you are destined to

"Although the weapon is unlikely to be the murder weapon in this case, it also gives us new ideas."

"As long as you use certain tools properly, even if you don't have such a strong power or are not a water element controller, you can do something similar."

The girl's words immediately made everyone present fall into deep thought. They were thinking about the possibility of this speculation.

“There is no such tool!”

"Of course there are."

"Then tell me, how did the murderer do it?!"

The girl looked at the man who was questioning loudly, smiled, then turned to look at Funina who was also thinking.

"Lady Funina."

"What's wrong, Emily?"

After hearing the girl's call, Finina immediately came to her senses and spoke quickly.

"You will appear in person next."

"I have laid the groundwork for the whole thing, and it is up to you to uncover the truth."

"But I haven't figured out the murderer's modus operandi yet!"

Finina spoke with some shame. Even though the [Trial] had already started, she was still confused.

"You can do it, Lady Furninna."

"Believe in yourself, and believe in me. You should know the answer best."

"You should be the one to bring this [trial] to an end. As the water god of Fontaine, you should stand in front, not behind me."

"Come on, let's end this [Trial] magnificently. I will guide Lady Funina to find the key clues."

After hearing the girl's words, Furninna felt filled with courage for some reason.

Furninna stepped forward and held the girl's hand, feeling an unprecedented peace in her heart.

"Well, let's uncover the truth of this case together."

Finina's eyes became focused. She had never been so eager to find the answer to her question. Her gaze moved across the collected evidence and finally stopped on a photo taken by the guard of a broken rusty iron pipe.

The iron pipe looked very strange. If it was impacted by a force, the entire iron pipe should have caved inward from one side. However, this iron pipe was twisted like a pretzel. At the same time, there were many broken gaps in the middle, and one end looked like it had been blown apart.

Then, Funina moved her attention to other photos of the dead. All of these dead people were killed by the strong impact of the water flow. Only their heads remained intact. As for the bones of their bodies, they had been completely crushed and could be posed in any posture.

Because of this strong pressure, the blood spread out backwards and finally flowed back due to hitting the wall, eventually forming a red puddle at a low place.

Although this was not the first time she had seen such a scene, and she had been frightened several times before, Funina still felt scared after seeing these photos.

Funina looked at the photo of the iron pipe and vaguely felt something, but the feeling soon disappeared.

After a long time, the girl gently asked Furninna.

"Lady Fininna, have you figured out the murderer's methods?"

"Not yet. I just feel that the murderer must have used this iron pipe to do something, but I can't figure out the details."

After hearing this, the girl shook her head.

"Well then, I will give Lady Funina some hints."

"This iron pipe is a tool used by the murderer to transform other forces and confuse everyone."

"A tool for confusion..."

After hearing the girl's reminder, Funina's eyes lit up, and then she immediately spoke to the man.

"I already know how the murderer faked the modus operandi!"

"The key lies in this iron pipe that seems to have been damaged by the force and fell to the ground!"

"The murderer is not actually a user of water element. Instead, he injected his own power into the water-filled iron pipe from one end."

"The water in the iron pipe will then be ejected from the other end due to this powerful force, creating the illusion that the murderer is a user of the water element."

"The evidence is that the iron pipe in this photo is extremely badly damaged, but it's obviously not caused by an external force. It's more like a powerful force passing through it from the inside!"

"So this case was actually framed on me by the murderer. I am not the murderer!"

After hearing Funina's reasoning and seeing the photos of the pipeline she showed, everyone present fell into silence.

It was indeed as Furninda said, the damage to the iron pipe was too strange, and it didn't look like it had been affected by any force at all.

Did they really blame Funina wrongly?

"No, no, this must be all faked by you!"

At this moment, the man became excited and spoke again.

"You said the murderer framed you, so tell me."

"No one knew beforehand that you changed your mind and would no longer participate in the battle with the Fatui [Executives], and your appearance in this area was purely coincidental."

"Water Goddess Furninna, tell me how the murderer determined this information, and then started a careful plan to frame you?!"

The man's questioning suddenly made Funina feel a chill from the bottom of her heart, and her body suddenly became completely stiff.

Funina's abnormality was immediately noticed by the people around her. They thought that Funina could not find an excuse to refute, so they spoke up one after another.

"Yes, yes, this is impossible."

"If you want to frame someone, you should at least determine their trajectory. Otherwise, if they are fighting when you frame them, won't the plan fail completely soon?"

"I originally thought that I had wrongly accused the water goddess Funina. It seems that these were all things she had prepared long ago in order to exonerate herself."

"Yes, since she had already said before that she was going to do something important, and the water goddess Funina also said in person what it was that she would not tell us mortals, then no one should know her whereabouts that day, so how can we blame her?"

no it's not...

Her whereabouts are not completely unknown...

There is one person who knows...

He was the one who had been with her day and night for a month.

He is the one who shares the boredom and happiness in life with her.

Someone who understood her inner pain and gave her courage and support...

The cake made by that person himself is so delicious.

The smile on that person's face is so sweet.

That person's words are so heart-warming...

It was also that person who asked her to wait here.

It was also the man who fought for her.

It was still that person who stood firmly behind her, saying that he would always believe in her and support her...

"Lady Finina, it seems that you already have the answer in your heart."

The girl spoke softly, bringing Furninna back to consciousness.

Finina looked at the girl's usual smile on her face, but a huge fear surged in her heart.

"Please say out loud the name of the murderer you think he is."

“Let this [trial] have its glorious finale.”

"You may begin now, Lady Furninna."

“This is your stage.”

As Furninna looked at the girl whose smile became brighter and brighter, her throat felt extremely dry. The look in her eyes when she looked at the girl was extremely complicated, and contained many indescribable emotions.

After the girl's words, everyone around turned their eyes to Furninna, expecting her to say the name of the real murderer.

Even the man who was the accuser stopped struggling. For him, finding the real murderer was far more important than venting his emotions on Funina.

It was under such a situation where everyone was paying attention that Finina finally moved her lips and spoke.

"Yes...I did it. I...am the murderer..."

ps: Although there is only one chapter, it has 7,000 words. I don't want to stop here, but as you can see, it's too late now and I really need to go to bed. I will try to finish this stage in one go tomorrow.

Finally, I strongly recommend Danganronpa, especially the second part, which I just finished, and it is very exciting. The plot has some flaws, after all, it is adapted from a game, but the flaws are not enough to overshadow the merits, it is an absolute masterpiece.

Chapter 48 I am number 8, please give me your advice

"My Lord, how do you feel now?"

In response to Sigwen's question, Leosli nodded and then spoke.

"I'm almost recovered now. The head nurse's medicine is very effective."

"You'd better not take risks next time. If something happens to you, Villette won't let me off."

Leosli thought about what had just happened and spoke again.

"In fact, I think that even if I don't show up, nothing will happen to His Excellency the Duke."

Sigwen smiled.

"Because Miss Emily has clearly taken control of the situation, but she still hasn't taken any drastic actions against the Duke."

"As for what happened to the Duke recently, you can think back and see if you have angered him in some way."

After hearing what Sigwen said, Leosli couldn't help but recall what happened before, and it seemed to be true.

At the beginning, he felt that the situation was completely under his control and even threatened and provoked the girl verbally. From then on, his peaceful tea-drinking time was no longer peaceful. And today's incident was also caused by him who summoned the mechanical guards to ambush her first.

But things can't be viewed in this way. He doesn't believe that the murder that happened today has nothing to do with the other party. After all, the murderer can be identified basically at a glance at that kind of scene.

What's more, until now, Villette has not arrived in Melo Petersburg, and this matter is probably related to the other party.

If he doesn't take action when he is unable to determine the girl's true intentions, the situation will develop in a very bad direction.

"maybe……"

Leosli replied, then suddenly thought of something and spoke again.

"Wait a minute, I told others not to tell you about these things, how come the head nurse knows so much?"

"Could it be that the tea served at tea time that was spiked with an excessive amount of milkshake was made by the head nurse?"

"I don't know anything!"

Sigwen looked away as if nothing had happened.

Leosli covered his forehead with his hands. Oh my god, it turns out that Sigwen is the biggest spy!

"It is too dangerous for you to have direct contact with her."

Leosli was a little scared. It was obvious that the girl had had contact with Sigwen before. If anything happened to Sigwen, he would not be able to explain to Villette.

The other party trusted Sigwen so much and handed her over to him that even if he gave up his life, he would not let Sigwen come to any harm.

After hearing what Leosli said, Sigwen shook her head.

"I do not think so."

"Your Excellency the Duke, remember that we, Melusin, have a special vision that allows us to more clearly distinguish the good from the bad of a thing."

"Although I can't see through Miss Emily, most of the people in the mutual aid society are good kids."

"And I believe that Miss Emily, whom they support, will not do anything too extreme."

"But she killed someone today."

Leosley emphasized this fact.

"I don't know much about this matter, but I think Miss Emily may have her own reasons."

"Just like the Duke, using force does not mean she wants to do bad things."

"Should we wait a little and see what Miss Emily wants to do?"

Leosley shook his head.

"I have to go back. I don't feel comfortable leaving that place to these people."

"And the remaining mechanical guards also need to be destroyed. Such dangerous things must not fall into the hands of these people."
