After hearing what Dr. Melusin said, Villette said "hmm" softly, without any change in his expression.

Villette has been thinking about the man's last words for some time. Judging from what happened before, the other party may not be really dead.

That Villette guessed that the other party should have the ability to transfer consciousness, but this ability has certain limitations, otherwise the other party would not try to escape with his seriously injured body.

If things were really as he thought, then the place where the other party had tampered with was most likely the two people lying on the hospital bed in front of him.

And even if that person is really dead, there are still at least five enemies of his level. If the other party wants to take revenge on him, the best targets to choose are these two people.

Therefore, Villette not only kept a backup plan, but also had the two men undergo a more detailed examination.

Even though Dr. Meilushin said there was nothing abnormal, the fact that he was still in a coma without any problems was already a very obvious abnormality.

Now there are no more crime warning letters, and no new girls are missing. It seems that the murderer who was behind all this is really gone. However, behind the calm there is often a more turbulent crisis hidden.

At this time, Villette had allowed Charlotte to selectively report the incident and define the murderer as dead, in order to calm the hearts of the people of Fontaine and at the same time allow the other party to relax their vigilance.

When people saw the latest report from Steambird Newspaper, they were shocked by what was shown.

It was not just what the few people encountered at that time. In the subsequent excavation of the secret base, many dissected bodies were found, including people from other countries, as well as Meilushin.

When the people saw the murderer's numerous evil deeds, many people with passion and justice in their hearts changed their original ambitions and chose to join the police force or the [Law Enforcement Court], vowing to fight the murderer to the end.

As a result, a lot of fresh blood was injected into the security force and the [Law Enforcement Court], which barely solved the current dilemma of insufficient staff due to the rising crime rate.

The top management of Fontaine was extremely satisfied with Navillatte for having successfully prevented further disappearances of young girls. They spoke to him more gently during this period and used public opinion to praise Navillatte's contribution to the incident, hoping to eliminate the gap between them.

But now Navilette no longer cares about these things. No matter how these powerful people cater to him, the next time he needs to make a choice, he will no longer abide by the established rules.

If he always abides by the rules, the murderer who knows his weakness can easily control him.

If he wants to completely eliminate this threat for Fontaine, he can no longer be so inflexible.

It's a pity that he understood this truth a little late, otherwise Navia's father would not have died with a crime, and he could have saved this innocent life.

The truth about the Cares case before, in which the other party told him that there were things more important than life and rules, only caused some ripples in his heart at the time, but what he experienced now completely changed his mind.

"Then Lord Villette, Miss Navia and her housekeeper, and Miss Kelly are here."

A voice interrupted Villette's thoughts, and then he looked at the figures in front of him.

"Are they alright?"

As soon as Navia saw Villette's figure, she hurried forward and asked with concern. Both Luo Fan and Vinani were partners with whom she had a good relationship.

Even Myles and Silver behind Navia cast worried glances at the bed.

"It seems that there is nothing serious wrong with his body, but he is still in a coma. Maybe he will feel better after a few days of rest."

After hearing what Villette said, Navia had the same idea as Villette. There was nothing wrong with his body, but he was still in a coma. How could she feel at ease?

But even though she was worried, Navia couldn't do anything. She believed that Villette had found the best doctor for the two of them.

Finally, Navia looked at the two people on the hospital bed, and after a long while she looked at Villette again.

"Then Mr. Villette, Miss Kelly wants to talk to you, so I brought her here on the way."

After hearing what Navia said, Navillatte turned his attention to the girl.

"That's right, Monsieur Navelette."

"After what happened last time, I'm sure the murderers already know that someone is helping you. This means it's only a matter of time before I'm exposed."

"I suspect the murderers are holding off on taking action because they want to find me."

Hearing this, Villette originally thought that the girl wanted him to fulfill his promise and provide strict protection for her. When he was about to speak, he was a little surprised when he heard the other party's next words.

"I knew that no matter how I hid, I would not be able to escape their search."

"But I don't want to wait for the final moment to come in vain."

"So I want to try my best to find more clues about those murderers for you in my last time."

After hearing what the girl said, even Navia was a little surprised.

Although she had a lot of good feelings towards the girl for standing up for herself, the girl's words now made her respect her a little.

After hearing the girl's words, Villette was silent for a long time. Only when the girl's firm eyes never left him for a second did he sigh softly and speak.

"I understand, Miss Kelly. I will give you the greatest convenience during the operation."

"I'm sorry, for some reason, I can't leave Fontaine for too long. I should be the one who is here."

"It's okay, Mr. Villette. I understand that you are very busy."

The girl waved her hand and continued.

"As long as you don't stop me, it will be the greatest help to me."

Villette sighed softly. He also wanted to stop the other party.

In any case, if the girl stays in a safe place, there is a chance that she will not be targeted by the murderer.

However, the other party was so aware that he wanted to do his best to help them find new clues even if it meant putting himself in extreme danger. He could not bear to ignore this determination.

"Ms. Kelly, please allow me to thank you again."

"Also, I wish you smooth sailing."

After hearing this, the girl smiled charmingly.

The girl and Navia left. Although Villette wanted to provide some support to the other party, the girl politely refused.

The girl's reason was that whether it was the security team members or the people from the [Law Enforcement Court] or the [Shadow Chasing Court], they were basically all Fontaine people, and carrying out this operation would be extremely dangerous.

The girl wants to rely on the power of the Rose Thorn Society and the Fatui, because a considerable number of people in these two forces are from other countries.

After thinking it over for a moment, Villette agreed to the girl's proposal, and even wrote a letter personally to the Fatui [executor] who was currently somewhere in Fontaine.

The relationship between the Kingdom of Winter and Fontaine is only good on the surface. In fact, Fontaine is not unaware of the Fatui's behavior of planting countless spies in Fontaine, so the relationship between the two countries is not as harmonious as irrelevant people imagine.

The reason why Villette wrote the letter personally to the servant Arlecchino was to fulfill his promise to the girl that he would give her the greatest help.

Watching the two people leaving, Villette felt an inexplicable sense of uneasiness in his heart for some reason.

He couldn't find the root cause of this feeling of uneasiness, and in the end he could only let it go temporarily.

After checking his arrangements again, Navillatte returned to Momang Palace to handle official business.

Without seeing the short and lively figure, Villette felt a little uncomfortable handling official business at a normal speed.

Accustomed to the noise around him, he suddenly felt a little nostalgic when it suddenly became quiet.

Finally, Villette left the door ajar, allowing even the slightest sound from outside to be heard in the room.

"What about Lord Villette?"

A Meilushin thought that something was wrong with Villette and hurried to meet him.

"It's okay, don't worry about it."

That Villette spoke, and then returned to his seat again under the other party's puzzled gaze.

I picked up the documents on the table and started processing them. The drizzle outside the window that had been falling for several days had stopped at some point.

"Emma, ​​we can finally hang the clothes!"

……

"My Lord, this is what Linnet and I discovered during this operation."

Linny and Linnette looked respectfully at the figure leaning against the window in front of them with his arms folded. Needless to say, the other person's identity was natural.

After listening to Linny's report, Alechino fell into deep thought.

Now all the information seems to point to the prophecy. The person she saw that day was not a special individual, but a member of a group.

This discovery made Alechino lose some interest in the man, but she was a little confused about the result.

No matter how you look at it, it didn't seem like that person had chosen to return to his homeland on his own initiative.

And she was the only one who knew that night that most of the powerful people who died that night were not killed by her.

But if she connected that man with the madman named "Number Six" that Linny and Linnette met, Arlecchino couldn't convince herself.

But Alecino had a feeling that this matter should not be that simple.

Everything that is happening now seems to be constantly drawing people's attention towards the direction of the prophecy.

On the one hand, there is the conclusion drawn based on all the current clues, and on the other hand, there is her own intuition. Alechino is caught in a dilemma.

Just as Alechino was hesitating about which direction to continue her investigation, she suddenly noticed the siblings Linny and Linnet who seemed to be focusing their attention completely on her and waiting for her response.

Suddenly, Alecino smiled. She had actually forgotten about this matter.

"Your discovery this time is very valuable."

"Very good, you have lived up to my expectations."

After receiving praise and recognition from Alechino, Linny and Linnet felt happy.

"Continue to investigate the relationship between this incident and the prophecy. I will use this incident as my final test for you."

Alechino's words made Linny and Linnet stunned for a moment, and then they did not show happiness, but spoke anxiously.

"Sir [Father], we are not qualified yet. The children of the Buffati Mansion need you!"

"Well, the results of the investigation into this matter and my own heart will determine whether you are qualified."

"Stand back."

"Yes."

Although Linny and Linnet wanted to say something, Alechino's order was indisputable, so they could only leave the room.

After Linny and Linnet left, Alechino fell into deep thought again.

If the currently known clues cannot reveal the hidden truth, then the key breakthrough point may lie in the kidnapped security guard.

As for Melusin, since her purpose was to use her death to make Villette suffer pain and self-blame, her rescue was most likely an accident.

But the security guard was very abnormal. Judging from his current style of behavior, it would be impossible for him to hand it over to Villette intact.

It seems that she has to meet with Villette in person to talk to him. And is the Lord of Water really completely indifferent to what is happening before his eyes?

Alechino suddenly remembered that the murderer had died in front of Fininna while pretending to be Clorinde. She couldn't help but shook her head. She didn't like this Lord Water God at all. His performance was too much like that of an ordinary person.

It feels like there is no point in testing it anymore. Otherwise, I should find another opportunity to directly confirm the matter about the Heart of God...

Arlecino, who was in deep thought, suddenly came to his senses, and then looked at a place around him where there was nothing at all. Soon a debt handler appeared there, lowered his head and handed a letter to Arlecino.

"My Lord, this is the letter from Villette."

"Oh, interesting."

Hearing an unexpected name, Alechino was obviously curious, and then he took the letter and began to read it.

When Alecino finished reading the contents of the letter, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

Alechino didn't expect that Villette would actually write a letter to ask for help from the Fatui. To be honest, this was somewhat inconsistent with the rules that Villette had always followed.

In the land of Fontaine, she had to rely on the power of the Fatui. It seemed that some changes had occurred in the Supreme Judge that she could not predict.

Suddenly, the letter in Alecino's hand started to burn. Alecino watched the letter burn quietly until it was completely burned. Finally, she loosened her fingers that were holding the last piece of the letter and walked straight to the door of the room.

The last piece of paper was dancing in the air, and only a name could be vaguely seen on it.

Kelly.

Could it be that you are the key to breaking the deadlock?

ps: I have a runny nose today, I can hardly open my eyes, and I have a low-grade fever. I originally wanted to ask for leave, but since I didn’t have much time left, I decided to finish it.

Chapter 40: Vinani Longs for Redemption

With the help of Kelly, Navia, Linny and Linnet successively found several secretly built laboratories in Fontaine, and more secrets were constantly revealed.

First of all, there are physical samples of people from various countries, among which the largest number are from Fontaineland.

In addition, there are some special races, but the Melusin make up the majority.

Next were some bodies of magical beasts, but for unknown reasons there seemed to be very few samples. It was possible that the other party was not very interested in monsters.

In addition to these bloody scenes presented to people, there are also some records in text.

Dissection, human experiments, brain surgery...
