Fontaine Grand Stage, come if you are destined to

Moreover, the deceased was different from the previous ones. This time he was just an ordinary citizen of Fontaine. Although he was financially tight, he was not unable to survive.

But he still chose to commit suicide by jumping off the building. It was not an accident and there were no signs of coercion on his body.

Even if the security team intends to classify this incident as completely different from the previous serial suicide cases, the cloak with "Love you through despair" written on the deceased shows that this was a crime committed by the same murderer.

The other party changed their target from the poor people living in the Gray River whose backgrounds and identities could not be investigated clearly to ordinary residents. It was as if they were mocking the incompetence of the security team, and it seemed as if they were getting worse because of the Luo Fan incident.

After carefully reading the detailed records of the latest jumping incident, Charlotte realized that the matter was far more complicated than she had imagined.

The first line of reasoning is that Charlotte still remembered that Luo Fan shouted the name of the Queen of Winter at the end. Combined with the other party's surname that was later investigated, there is no doubt that Luo Fan is a member of the Fatui, from the Fatui [House of Hearth].

Perhaps the manipulator of this series of cases is actually the Fatui, and Luo Fan is just an insignificant pawn among them. However, the Fatui are more protective of their own people, and even the death of a pawn would cause their dissatisfaction, so they chose a target that everyone thought was almost impossible to succeed, in order to threaten the guard team.

The second line of reasoning is that Luo Fan is a copycat criminal. Perhaps he heard the news of the recent serial suicides, which aroused the malice that had accumulated in Luo Fan's heart for many years, and then he prepared to commit a copycat crime, but he was discovered by her just as he was committing the crime.

However, there was one thing that Charlotte could not understand for the time being, which was why Luo Fan admitted her accusation that he was the real murderer of the serial suicide case...

Suddenly, Charlotte thought of something and an expression of great pain appeared on her face.

Charlotte had an extremely frightening guess, that is, the reason why Luo Fan did not deny the accusation against him was because she was the accuser...

Charlotte felt as if the wound in her heart was torn open again. The pain made her breathing quicken. It took her a long time to pull herself together again, but she could not hide the sadness in her eyes.

If this is true, then doesn't it mean that she pushed Luo Fan to death with her own hands?

Although attempted crimes would also be subject to severe [trials], they would never lose their lives. Luo Fan still had a chance to reform, but all of this was taken away by her...

In a trance, Charlotte seemed to feel that her hands were covered with sticky blood.

"Sister Charlotte, the Maple Leaf you bought for me is really delicious." (Chapter 7 has been modified)

Charlotte suddenly remembered Luo Fan's last farewell words, and these words once again deeply hurt her heart.

Warm tears slid down her cheeks. Charlotte wished she could go back to the trial scene a day ago. If she had not been so cold and cruel and told Luo Fan to disappear, but instead asked him to tell the truth, would the ending have been completely different?

Obviously everything could have been saved, but it was her who pushed Luo Fan to the brink of death.

"Why do you have to obey my orders, a sister you've only known for a few hours? Are you stupid?!"

Charlotte whimpered, but luckily she had her own separate work room, so no one else saw her break down.

I don't know how long it took, but Charlotte's sobbing gradually subsided and her eyes became more and more determined.

Charlotte was determined to find out the real culprit behind the case and make up for her mistake.

In fact, even Charlotte did not realize that her first inference was much more likely than the second one. After all, the city where the victims were located was not all Fontaine. However, Charlotte subconsciously tended to the second inference.

Soon Charlotte brought professional props, found the relevant security team members, and prepared to look for key clues that she might have overlooked.

Because of the special nature of Charlotte's identity and the fact that she was indeed involved in this case, Charlotte successfully obtained some basic information about the latest victim from the security team.

The victim was a 28-year-old male from Fontaine. His parents died in an accident three years ago. Since then, the victim's personality has become somewhat withdrawn. He rented a house in a residential area but rarely walked among his neighbors. He had no good relationships with anyone and no lover.

Based on the analysis of this information, the victim may indeed have suicidal tendencies.

"Has the victim's home been visited by any strangers recently?"

Charlotte asked the guards her questions, and they were answered quickly.

"We have already checked with the victim's neighbors about this, and they did not see any unfamiliar people in the area."

Charlotte nodded and then fell into deep thought.

"In fact, if you ask me, this case was most likely done by the Fatui!"

The guards felt that Charlotte was very different from her usual state, so they couldn't help but speak out their thoughts.

"The previous prisoner Luo Fan has been identified and confirmed to be a member of the Fatui. The Fatui must be planning something bad again."

"There are new developments in the case now. Please do not treat Luo Fan as a criminal before the truth is fully revealed."

After hearing what the guard said, Charlotte stared into his eyes and spoke word by word.

Under pressure from Charlotte's aura, the security team member nodded quickly, then swallowed and moistened his dry throat.

"Feel sorry."

Realizing her own misconduct, Charlotte quickly apologized to the security guards.

"it's okay no problem."

The security officer waved his hands and didn't take it to heart. He understood the course of the case and knew the specific reasons why Charlotte's mood had been a little unstable recently.

"In any case, if you want to investigate on your own, Miss Charlotte, you must pay attention to your own safety. If the Fatui are really involved in the case, it will be very difficult to deal with."

"Okay, thank you for the reminder."

Charlotte smiled and thanked the security team members, then wanted to leave. She planned to look for clues in the Gray River according to her own ideas, and by the way, think about how to improve the quality of life of those living under the Gray River. This should be considered as fulfilling Luo Fan's wish.

Just as Charlotte was about to leave, she was suddenly stopped by the security guard.

"Wait a minute, Miss Charlotte, I suddenly remembered that there is one clue I haven't shown you yet."

Charlotte turned around and saw the security guard handing her a stack of photos.

The content of the photo seems to be a blood-stained letter...

ps: Thank you very much for the dog food reward from the big brother Shuke 711650127487, and thank you all for the recommendation votes, monthly tickets and blades. It’s the first time I feel such enthusiasm from my family members, and I’m a little nervous.

Chapter 10 Let’s not film today

Charlotte took the photos and looked at them carefully. These were several photos of the contents of the letters. Marks had been marked on the photos, making it easy to find the order.

The content of the photo was clearly visible, but part of it was soaked with dark red blood, and it was no longer possible to tell what was originally written.

However, the rest of the content also gave Charlotte a very familiar feeling. After just a little thought, she suddenly realized that the content of the photo was related to the recent serial jumping cases.

"Miss Charlotte should have discovered that the contents of the letter correspond exactly to the words on the deceased's cloak."

"And the content of this letter is far more than what has appeared so far, so it is very likely that the murderer will continue to commit crimes."

Both the guards and Charlotte fell silent when they thought of the large part of the contents of the letter.

After a long while, Charlotte looked up and asked the guard.

"May I ask where did you collect the letters from?"

"This letter was found on the accomplice... Mr. Luo Fan. Although it doesn't seem to be of much use in solving the case, I think Miss Charlotte may need it."

Charlotte nodded with some difficulty, thanked the security team, took pictures one by one with her camera, and then left with heavy steps.

Coming to the slightly deserted street, Charlotte took a deep breath.

"Luo Fan, what is the truth?"

"Which one is the real you?"

Because of this letter, Charlotte's first reasoning has been basically verified. Luo Fan is acting as a pawn of the Fatui. Although he is not the real murderer in the serial jumping case, he is also one of the accomplices.

This reasoning result is actually more logical, but Charlotte subconsciously avoids this possibility.

Although there are some explanations, such as the letter was picked up by Luo Fan, or the murderer accidentally saw the letter on Luo Fan's body, and then suddenly had the idea to add this part in, but Charlotte could no longer deceive herself.

Of course, after experiencing the ups and downs before, Charlotte felt that her heart had become stronger. Even after hearing about the origin of the letter just now, Charlotte found that she quickly accepted it.

"In short, the truth has not yet surfaced, so we cannot make any rash decisions on anything."

Although she might have to face the giant Fatui this time, Charlotte did not have too much fear in her heart. Instead, it made her determination even stronger.

Then Charlotte followed the road and found the entrance to the Gray River. In fact, before meeting Luo Fan, Charlotte had been to the Gray River to report, but with little success.

Many Fontaine people seem to turn a blind eye to this black area beneath the most prosperous city, or even want to avoid it as much as possible.

However, with Lofan's actions at the Opikley Opera House, I believe some people will have to consider the issue of Gray River on the surface.

At this moment, Charlotte was looking at the entrance of the Gray River, and suddenly she had an idea of ​​retreating, but she quickly suppressed the idea, and then she walked into the entrance of the Gray River without hesitation.

When she came to the Gray River again, Charlotte couldn't help but recall the scenes that happened that day.

Because of the huge shock she had suffered in her heart before, Charlotte did not have time to think about it carefully. But at this moment, Charlotte suddenly felt that she seemed to have missed something and frowned.

After a long time, Charlotte still hadn't figured out what she had overlooked. During this time, she found many residents of Gray River and asked them if they knew anyone who had disappeared recently.

However, Charlotte received only negative answers in the end, which made her even more depressed. This result meant that the targets chosen by the murderer were those who were in the most desperate situations and were alone, and no one would care even if they disappeared.

In this case, if she wants to find relevant clues, it will be too difficult. No wonder the security team has not had many clues until now.

How about starting from Luo Fan's identity as a Fatui and looking for clues in [House of Hearth]?

Just as Charlotte was hesitating, she suddenly felt someone approaching her.

Charlotte became slightly alert, and her ice-attributed God's Eye flickered slightly in the dim light of the Gray River.

But when Charlotte turned around and found that the person approaching her was someone she knew, she lowered her guard.

"Girl, I didn't expect to see you here again. Thank you so much for last time!"

"I was so hungry that day that I felt dizzy and wanted to sleep through it. Thank you for letting me enjoy full meals for several days."

"It's okay, old man. I just did what I could."

The other person was actually the old man who was almost induced by Luo Fan to jump off the building and commit suicide that day. When Charlotte saw him again, she couldn't help feeling some guilt in her heart.

"Is that money enough? If not, I'll give you some more."

"That's enough, that's enough. That money is enough to cover my expenses for more than a year."

After hearing what the other party said, Charlotte's heart skipped a beat. She found that she seemed to have no idea how difficult life was for these people living in Gray River.

Charlotte still remembered that the money she gave to the other party was about half of her monthly salary. If it were her, she would probably have spent it in a month or two, and it would have been faster to buy something else.

"Girl, you are such a good person. I am so lucky to have met you that day."

Seeing the extremely grateful expression on the other person's face, Charlotte came back to her senses and felt a little better. She didn't notice the unreasonableness in the other person's words at all.

"Old man, even if I didn't show up that day, you would definitely meet a kind person."

"So no matter what kind of difficulties you encounter, old man, you must never give up hope of life!"

After hearing Charlotte's words, the old man looked confused. After coming to his senses, he looked around.

"Girl, you're not filming today, right?"

"Filming?"

"Yeah, didn't you need my cooperation for the filming a few days ago? But no one told me what to do today?"

"Oh, that guy told me what to do last time. He's also my savior. There are too many people like me in Gray River. It's my blessing that he chose me right away!"

"By the way, girl, didn't that young man come this time?"

"Alas, last time I left because I didn't want to disturb you guys from filming. I haven't had the chance to thank that guy yet. I don't know when I'll have this chance again..."

Chapter 11: Charlotte, Completely Crazy

The other party's words were like a bolt from the blue to Charlotte.

Filming?

The answer that Charlotte had never imagined appeared in front of her, and she felt extremely panicked at the moment.

It was at this moment that Charlotte suddenly remembered a detail that she had overlooked, which was that when Luo Fan asked the old man to leave quickly, he did not prepare a cloak with written content for him.

So Luo Fan did all this for her to see. From the very beginning, Luo Fan wanted to use her to take the blame for the serial jumping cases on himself. From the very beginning, Luo Fan chose to use his own death to vividly display something in the eyes of those in power.

but why?

Why did Luo Fan choose such an extreme method?

Why did you lie to her...

Although Charlotte had realized that Luo Fan might have used her from the beginning, her inner anger was because Luo Fan did not value his life, not because he had deceived her.

If we discuss it properly...

Suddenly Charlotte was stunned, because she realized that although there were many crimes in Gray River, only a few of them were tried in public at the Oprykle Opera House.

Shouldn't Fontaine be a country of justice?

For the first time, Charlotte felt that beneath the glamorous city, there was so much darkness hidden.

It’s not that Charlotte has never encountered these things, but she has never thought about them carefully in the past, because as Luo Fan said, she is a person who lives in the sunshine.

A huge sadness and helplessness surged into Charlotte's heart, almost crushing her.
