Funina, please let me steal your heart!

Navrette rapped his cane harder: "Adjourn!"

.................

The noisy trial has now adjourned, and Luna and Navia have come to the lounge backstage at the opera house.

"I didn't expect the court to be adjourned just at the beginning." Navia said helplessly with her hands on her hips.

Luna leaned against the wall and whispered, "According to Fontaine Law, in this case, the court can indeed adjourn and communicate with the defense again."

Otherwise it's just pure bullying.

Navia sat backwards in the chair, leaning forward, rocking the chair, and making small talk:

"It is true that Judith committed murder, but the defense attorney still has to prove her 'innocence'. Although I have seen many trials like this, is this really justice?"

"Of course."

Luna approached Navia and rocked gently by leaning on the back of the chair.

Navia raised her face, blinked her blue eyes, and stared at Luna's red eyes.

"How to say?"

"Victory is justice - if the other side defeats us legally and in compliance with regulations, then victory and innocence belong to them."

"Because we are not strong enough to restore the innocence of the dead."

It is normal that if you are not as skilled as others, you will suffer defeat.

Navia's eyes shifted: "...Indeed."

What matters is strength.

Without enough power, she couldn't prove her father's innocence.

".....I don't know if I have the ability and preparation to prove my father's innocence." Navia whispered.

It's been three years, and we've been searching for so long but still haven't found any groundbreaking clues.

"But you now have the power to speak for the dead."

Navia's gaze slowly moved back, and then she chuckled.

"Indeed! And now I have Miss Detective as my partner. How should I put it? It's more reassuring than having 100 more guns in stock!"

"Then I still think 100 guns will make people feel more at ease." Luna said with a smile.

Partner...sounds like a good word, but when she puts on the mask and becomes a thief, this word becomes "enemy".

As expected, life is always full of drama.

As Luna was sighing like this, she caught a glimpse of a restless hand approaching her face and pinching the golden hair that was falling down.

"What are you doing?" Luna asked.

Navia came back to her senses: "Huh? Ah.....it suddenly occurred to me that you have blonde hair like me."

"There are a lot of blond people in this world."

For example, a blond traveler who has not yet arrived in Fontainebleau.

Navia asked again: "But you don't look like a Fontaine person, so you weren't born in Fontaine?"

"No, my father is from Liyue, and my mother is from Mondstadt... I heard this from my 'father'."

I don't know anything else.

The name Luna was also written on the card that was stuffed into the basket when she was just a baby.

No last name, just first name.

"Wow, you're a mixed-race! You're so beautiful, your parents must be very good-looking people too!"

Luna didn't think of responding and smiled, "Thank you."

She let go of her hand, and Navia scrambled to keep her feet steady to avoid falling.

Just as she was about to make a small complaint, Navia saw Luna sitting on the table, looking out the window thoughtfully.

She had been confident, flamboyant and gorgeous since the moment we met, but now she looked incredibly quiet and gentle.

As Navia thought about it, she left the chair, and with a whoosh, she sat on the table as well.

"After you succeed, do you want to go get something nice to eat? It's my treat."

"Don't pop the champagne at halftime."

Navia looked around.

"...Where can I get the champagne to open?"

Meanwhile, on the other side.

The acting defense attorney gulped down a glass of water, then exhaled and said sincerely, "Please tell me all the truth before the trial begins. We professional defense attorneys maintain absolute confidentiality."

Judith remained silent.

"Please believe me! Otherwise we won't be able to win this trial and prove your innocence."

".....What if I'm not innocent?"

He leaned on the table and said seriously, "It is our duty to prove that you are 'innocent'. At the very least, we can get the maximum reduction in your sentence for you."

Judith nodded slowly: "I know...I did it..."

As she spoke, she began to cry.

"I'm sorry, Mary..."

"...Although it is painful, please tell me the truth."

Then time passed slowly.

Half an hour later, the trial resumed.

28: Trial is also a stage

That Villette knocked down her cane.

"The trial continues then."

Funina leaned against the armrest and yawned, "I can't stop yawning... Half an hour has passed. Does the accused have anything to say about the accuser's speech?"

It is true that during the trial, Fernina was just a spectator like the rest of the audience.

But after all, he is a god, and every word and every action of his is eye-catching.

No one can or should ignore her.

Therefore, what she says often carries considerable weight and influences the development and direction of the trial.

After all, this is not just a trial, it is also part of the "drama".

She asked this and the audience all looked towards the accused.

"Regarding the prosecution's remarks just now..." the deputy defense attorney pushed his glasses and was about to respond.

Luna said in a clear voice: "I'm very sorry. After half an hour of reflection, I realized that the relationship between them is not the key to this trial."

The defense attorney was speechless for a moment.

Even though it had only been a short while since the restart, Luna had everyone into her own rhythm again.

It was as if this trial was also a stage prepared for her.

"Isn't it the key?" asked Funina.

"Yes."

Luna nodded and gestured to Navia.

Navia took out her notebook and said, "According to the testimony we obtained, their relationship was very close. It would be impossible for them to kill Miss Mary under normal circumstances."

Judith was confused and asked, "Then you..."

"But what if it's under 'abnormal' circumstances?"

Navia closed her notebook and raised her hand.

She said loudly: "The prosecution has requested to produce evidence - the notes of the recently arrested Les trafficking gang. The evidence should be in the evidence library of the law enforcement court. I know they will definitely make a record..."

Because otherwise they would have no way of knowing who was without money.

There is also no way to know who can be sent to create more benefits.

Lex?

"Why did this thing suddenly appear?"

"Eh? What's Lex?"

"Isn't that one of the good things that 'Unjust Kares' did? The special drink he banned..."

"He was caught recently? Wasn't that done by the Phantom Thief White Cat?"

There was a lot of discussion in the audience.

Finina frowned slightly, it was Les again.

There have been a lot more cases of drug trafficking involving Le Si recently, and they are quite difficult to handle. Every time, the victim escapes after the security team rushes over.

She slapped the armrest: "Approved!"

Navillaette glanced at Furninha and nodded to the guards below the stage.

Soon, the security team retrieved the trafficking gang's notes.

"It should have Miss Judith and Miss Mary's names on it," Luna said.

"...Yes, it's on page six. Please have a look, Master Villette."

After taking the notes handed over by the security team, Villette read them carefully for a while.

"Indeed, Judith and Mary Bestina's names are on the list, and they have purchased Lexicon thirty and thirteen times. They are obviously addicted to Lexicon."

Furninna wondered again, "They are both addicted to Les - but what does that mean?"

Luna pressed her chest and opened her lips slightly:

"Lady Funina, please be patient. Lord Villette, I would also like to trouble you to ask the Law Enforcement Court to bring the confiscated Les to this stage so that I can explain it better."

Villette groaned for a moment and thought: This should serve as a reminder to everyone.

So he nodded and came down.

After a while, the security team brought up a tightly sealed evidence box.

After using tools to open it, he placed a bottle of Lexi on the display stand.

Luna and Navia came to the display stand.

"This is Les, the drink that my father once tried his best to ban, but is still sold in the dark side of Fontaine. It looks like an ordinary drink..."

Navia scanned all the faces in the audience, her tone calm and firm.

"But long-term drinking will lead to strong dependence, and if you don't drink it, you will feel tired and anxious all day long."

Luna raised her index finger and continued, "Please watch carefully! Beware of people around you who try to sell you similar items. If you are contaminated, your family will be destroyed at best, or you may die without a burial place at worst."

She paused for a moment and took a light step.

"Miss Judith and Miss Mary are both addicted to rosé, and Miss Mary has her own hidden money hidden all over her house—"

Furninna stood up from her chair and said, "I understand!"

What did their dear water god understand?

All the audience present thought so.
