But it was obvious that Clorinde misunderstood it and meant something else, so much so that even her eyes changed.

This icy beauty is probably wondering if she has any choice. If Richard really wants to attack her, how should she respond?

However, before Clorinde could come up with a response, she heard Linnet continue, "Fortunately, Richard rescued me in time, otherwise..."

Linnett shook her cat ears but said nothing. From her tightly pursed lips, it could be seen that the girl was still traumatized by what happened.

"Wait, Richard rescued you?" Clorinde was confused. Shouldn't he be the one who took advantage of the situation?

Are the roles reversed?

"Yes, don't you know? This incident caused quite a big stir at the time. The noble family was imprisoned in Mero Petersburg." Linnet said, and briefly told Clorinde what happened at the time, omitting some unnecessary details.

For example, not long after that noble family was imprisoned in Mero-Petersburg, they all died of illness...

"Oh, so that's how it is. I thought..." Clorinde said embarrassedly.

"Huh? What do you think?" Linnette asked curiously.

"Nothing. By the way, Linnet, why are you here?" Clorinde quickly changed the subject.

You can't tell Linnet that she thinks Richard is trying to take advantage of her, right?

If Richard knew about this, it would probably become a trick for resigning.

PS: PY wrote "Yu-Gi-Oh, but use duels to cure problem children!"

Summary: Bai Luo traveled to a world where playing cards is respected.

And became one of the seven pseudo-Duel Kings at the top of the world? !

Before he could be happy, Bai Luo realized that he only had one set of live twins?

It’s bad, now Zhen De is not worthy of the position.

Just when Bai Luo was worried that he would be killed by the dark duelist that day, he got a system that called itself "Teaching and Educating".

But there is a system that gives out cards as long as you enlighten your heart? !

And enlightening the heart = duel? !

[Mission: Enter the Duel Academy and become a glorious and great people's teacher. ]

[Reward: Satellite Shining? Red Elf]

[Note: Satellite Shining series card tasks will be released later]

You should have said it earlier. I will never lose in a duel!

DUEL!!

By the time Bai Luo came to his senses, he was surrounded by the women.

The card elves were flying around him, and the girls that he had transformed before surrounded him.

Looking at the girls approaching him step by step, Bai Luo couldn't help but sweat dripping from his forehead.

"Wait, didn't they say everything would be fine once we won the duel? What's going on now?!"

Portal: "Yu-Gi-Oh, but use duels to cure problem children!"

Volume 82: Chapter : Disrespecting God, will it lead to going to court?

"I came here to file a lawsuit, and then I saw you standing in front of the opera house, so I came to ask if you wanted to go back with me." Linnet briefly explained her purpose, and then looked at Clorinde, "You look a little flustered, did something happen on the way?"

"Nothing unexpected, it's just that I suddenly remembered that I forgot to bring my keys when I went out this morning..."

--A poor excuse.

Linnet saw that Clorinde's words were not true, but she did not pursue the matter further. She gave Clorinde a way out and said, "Would you like to come back with me? If you don't leave now, you will miss the last patrol boat."

"Let's go back together." said Clorinde.

The two quickly bought the tickets and boarded the last track patrol boat. They sat on the soft cushions and watched the surrounding scenery gradually recede.

"The lawsuit you mentioned just now, does it mean that you will file a lawsuit against Marcelle tomorrow?" asked Clorinde.

"Yes, the evidence has been almost collected. The reason why it is delayed until tomorrow is because it is already late and Villette has already left work."

"Who is the litigant?"

"Navia, Lady Finina will act as her agent and be responsible for the identification."

"What about Richard?" Clorinde asked puzzledly.

"He will serve as Funina's assistant and take the accusation seat together."

In fact, according to Richard's original intention, he just needed to watch from the audience and did not want to go on stage to attract attention.

But Fu Nina disagreed, and bluntly stated that as the biggest contributor to this incident, Richard should have a corresponding role in the final climax performance.

Richard said that he was just the screenwriter, and Lady Funina was the director and the leading actress.

"As a screenwriter, you should obey the director's arrangements." Funina said as a matter of course.

"Yes, Lady Funina." Richard had no choice but to agree.

Navia was watching the two people arguing back and forth in confusion. The young lady felt that the Lord Water God was a little different from what she had imagined.

It seems... she is not as exaggerated as the rumors say. When organizing evidence and discussing how to prosecute, Funina's performance is so steady that it is frightening.

It seemed that the Lord Water God wanted to deduce all possible situations that might arise at the Opikley Opera House tomorrow and make corresponding preparations in detail.

Perhaps this is the true side of the God of Water: meticulous, patient, and steady. These beautiful words are very consistent with Navia's imagination of a god.

But obviously Navia's imagination was just imagination. Only Richard knew that the reason why Finnina was so meticulous was because she had suffered too much loss before. Finnina was not stupid. Anyone would learn from this.

——————

The next morning, there was a knock on Marcelle's door. After she opened the door, a woman named Melusine, dressed in the uniform of the Inquisition, stood in front of Marcelle. She showed her relevant documents and spoke to Marcelle, who had just woken up.

"Good morning, Mr. Marcelle. On behalf of the court, I am here to formally inform you that our company has officially accepted Ms. Navia's accusation against you. Please arrive at the Opicolai Opera House at 10 a.m., and Mr. Navilette will preside over the trial."

Marcelle: ???

Marcelle, who was still a little sleepy, woke up instantly after hearing what Melusin said, with a look of surprise on her old face.

Wait, I'm not a witness? How come I'm the defendant?

This made the leader of the 'Les' gang, who was nominally the president of the Cabriere Chamber of Commerce but was actually responsible for countless deaths, feel extremely confused, so much so that he had the illusion that "Am I still asleep?"

"Mr. Marcelle, do you know anything?" Seeing Marcelle standing there in a daze without saying anything, Meilushin asked.

To be honest, Melusine was no longer surprised by Marcelle's daze. Because of her work, she often had to go to various people's homes to inform them of the accusations and go to the Opicelle Opera House to stand trial.

What was new and interesting to the well-informed Melusin today was not Marcelle's reaction, but the reason for the lawsuit.

"May I ask what I'm accused of?" Marcelle asked.

"It is because you did not salute the water god yesterday, which violated the third item of the first article of the Fontaine Law. Any Fontaine citizen must show due respect to the water god when he sees him on any occasion."

"After being reported by enthusiastic citizen Ms. Navia and with authorization from the water goddess Ms. Funina, we are now formally bringing charges against you, Mr. Marcelle." This Melusin is professionally trained. No matter how ridiculous the reasons are, she will not laugh until she finishes speaking.

Now that she had finished speaking, the corners of Meilushin's mouth couldn't help but rise.

"Is it because of this reason?" Marcelle didn't understand why Navia would sue him for such a ridiculous reason.

He also did not understand why the court of inquiry would approve of such a ridiculous reason in his opinion and formally accept the case, and even have the Supreme Judge, Lord Navilette, personally preside over the trial.

"Well, that's the reason. Mr. Marcelle, please correct your attitude." Meilushin adjusted her expression and answered seriously.

"Then tell me, are you aware that you have to be at the Oprykle Opera House at ten o'clock to stand trial?"

"…Know."

Despite all her doubts, Marcelle could only nod in response.

Because he knew that if he resisted stubbornly, he would suffer the consequences.

There is even the possibility of being convicted directly for contempt of the court.

As for why she was prosecuted, Marcelle couldn't help but think of Richard's handsome face.

At the same time, he also realized a problem, that is, is it possible that he has been exposed?

Marcelle couldn't help but look out the window. In fact, since he checked into the room yesterday, he had noticed that there were many hidden eyes watching him secretly.

At that time, he didn't think much about it, and just thought that the security of this high-end hotel was in place, but now it seems more like a form of surveillance.

After realizing this, an indescribable feeling of uneasiness swept over Marcelle's body, as if a rat in the sewer that was afraid of the light was suddenly thrown into the sunny street and seen by everyone.

"Aren't you leaving yet?" Melusine's voice came into Marcelle's ears again.

"leave?"

"The current time is 9:49. Although this place is very close to the Opikley Opera House, it will still take about five minutes at a normal human walking speed. However, considering possible unexpected factors, it would be best to set off about ten minutes in advance. Do you need me to lead the way for you?"

Marcelle turned her head to look at the clock hanging on the wall of the guest room and found that the pointer had reached nine fifty. Just as Melusin said, there were only ten minutes left until the scheduled opening time of the court.

This amount of time was just enough for him to wash, change into decent clothes and go to the opera house, but he could do nothing else.

Oh, and you can also buy a Steam Bird newspaper on the way there.

Marcelle felt an invisible net coming towards him, and he had been completely unaware of it until just now!

Marcelle now has no better way to deal with it, and can only bite the bullet and go to the Opicle Opera House to stand trial, pinning her hopes on the possibility that this is just a joke played by Navia.

But even the Supreme Inquisitor, Navilette, came out to preside over this trial, so how could it be just a joke?

It should be noted that trials take place every day in Fontaine, but there are actually not as many trials as people think, which can be held at the Opéracle Opera House and presided over by the Supreme Inquisitor Navilette himself.

Not every trial is worthy of Navillatte's personal appearance. Only those with a serious nature, far-reaching impact, or in some special circumstances will Navillatte personally preside over the trial.

The current situation should be classified as a special case. It was Furninha who personally arranged to jump the queue and designated Navilette to participate in and preside over the trial.

After all, although Fu Fu seems to be indifferent to things on a daily basis, she is still the water god of Fontaine in name and theoretically the holder of the highest power in Fontaine, so she still has this little privilege.

Led by Melusin, Marcelle soon arrived at the Opicule Opera House.

At this time, the seats in the opera house were already filled with onlookers, and standing in the accusation seats were Navia, Finnina, and Richard, who deliberately lagged behind them by half a body length.

"The accused Marcelle is already in place, so... Mr. Marcelle, you don't need an agent, right?" Villette was sitting in the second highest seat in the audience, looking down at Marcelle.

"Ah... Sorry, it happened so suddenly, I haven't figured out what's going on yet." Marcelle said, and at the same time he looked at Navia at the accusation seat with a puzzled look, "I don't think it's necessary, Navia should have misunderstood something."

Upon hearing this, Villette didn't say anything more, and didn't care whether it was a misunderstanding or not. In court, everything had to be based on evidence.

"Okay, now that all the members of both parties involved in the trial are here, please let the prosecution present your case."

"Okay, respected Judge Navilette and all the audience present today, I will now tell you my point of view..."

Navia is truly worthy of being the eldest daughter of the Rose Thorn Society. She spoke in a relaxed and measured manner, not at all panicked by the hundreds of eyes staring at her from the audience. She clearly explained the cause and process of the incident.

However, what Navia talked about was not Marcelle's "disrespectful" behavior yesterday, but the case of Cares that year.

After Navia briefly explained the whole story, Marcelle, who was sitting in the dock, couldn't help but raise an objection: "Navia, what you said are all old things from the past. They have no direct connection with the content of your accusation, right?"

"What have I done to make you and the water goddess Furninna think that I am disrespectful to the gods and want to sue me?"

Marcelle's words sparked heated discussions among the audience. In fact, the audience came not only because of the presence of Villette and the superstar water goddess Funina in this trial, but more because of the novel reason for the prosecution - disrespect for the gods.

And they only found out today that there is actually a stipulation in the Fontaine Law that requires one to greet and show respect when seeing the God of Water.

This is as little-known as the Fontaine Law, which stipulates that flying objects are not allowed in the Fontaine area during the first three days of each month.

Of course, this is not to say that the people of Fontaine did not respect the water god, but that the fact that respect was included in the law was little known.

Is it illegal in Fontaine not to show respect to the water goddess Funina when meeting her? This is the first thought of many people after learning about this case.

After that, he became very interested in the case, so much so that the opera house was already filled with onlookers an hour after the notice was posted only an hour ago. Some people who failed to grab seats even waited in the garden in front of the opera house, waiting for the summoner to orally report the progress of the case.

The act of watching for fun is already engraved in the DNA of the people of Fontaine. Even if it takes a lot of time and even money, they still enjoy it.

"That was only a pretext for bringing you to the Opera House, but what I really want to accuse you of is something else."

"In order to ensure that you would not choose to escape after receiving the news in advance and add burden to the staff of the Shadow Chasing Court, I deliberately brought you here for a seemingly unimportant reason. I also explained this to Lord Navilette before the trial." Navia said.

"Yes, Ms. Navia did explain the situation to me in advance," Navillat testified.

Marcelle's heart skipped a beat, but a trace of sadness appeared on her face as she said, "You don't think I did what happened to Mr. Cares, do you?"

"I have no reason at all. Mr. Carres is my benefactor. Besides, you and I rushed out after hearing the gunshots."

"There is a sufficient alibi. If I am a suspect, then everyone who was present at the time should be a suspect, right?"

Although Navia had given a brief background introduction before, the audience was still confused about what happened that year. In order to let everyone present understand the ins and outs of what happened that year, Villette decided to personally give everyone a complete account of what happened that year.
