Chapter 561 Comparison between ancient and modern times
"Is this justice in your eyes? Answer me, Villette!"
"Quiet!" Facing the noisy environment, Navilette tapped the ground with his crutch.
"Since there is no further defense, the charges against Mr. Watling are now left to the [Display Machine] to make the final decision."
"According to the trial results given by [Cardinal Judgment], Mr. Watling...is guilty."
The guards escorted Watling down. When they were leaving, Watling looked at Villette and murmured: "Goodbye, Lord Navilette."
[Kaia: Watling is such a man]
[Yelan: The more emotional and violent the words, the more they can reflect the justice of the law and the impartial law enforcement of Navilette]
[Ningguang: The peaceful coexistence between Meluxin and human beings is hard-won]
[Paimon: It rained heavily in Fontaine that day]
[Ying: Carolelei’s death brought people’s trust in Meluxin, and Watling’s death brought people’s trust in Navilette]
[Seno: That Meluxin fell before dawn and burned up in the flames..., and Watling, even in the Tribunal, is still building reputation for Navilette]
[Ke Qing: She did not fall before dawn, it was dawn that came because of her]
[Xingqiu: Watling’s ending is also paving the way for the final Water God’s curtain call, right? They are all counselors who act as if they are in a position to win the battle.]
[Alice: The law is the manifestation of people's rationality, but people are not always rational. Emotion is what truly proves that you are an individual. Emotional justice is your own justice, and rational justice is the justice that others need. So What kind of justice can win support from everyone? The answer is no. If you need to give up your own justice to fulfill the justice pursued by others, then this behavior itself is not justice]
[Amber: At that time, the nobles of Mondstadt wanted class inequality, while the nobles of Fontaine even wanted to deprive them of the chance of survival. They were simply unworthy of human beings]
[Ying: From my perspective, the old nobles of Fontaine are even more disgusting than the old nobles of Mondstadt. Forget about driving out the aliens, they have to drive away their own kind, forget about driving the common people to the Gray River, and even the Gray River behind them They were no longer allowed to live in the city, so they all fled outside the city and established a town of their own, which is Baisong Town]
[Kaia: Only when justice is no longer justice, then revenge will be the only justice]
[Paimon: If Albedo knew that his niece was killed by these nobles at that time, he would probably come here single-handedly and kill them all]
...
[The cause of the matter was Carolee's naive idea. How could different races coexist peacefully? 】
"Stop being in a daze—! What's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?" Pamon shook Sora, who had been in a daze.
Sora recalled what he had seen just now. It should be the memory of Villette.
Villette said apologetically: "I'm sorry, it seems that something is wrong with me. Although I have tried my best to suppress my water elemental power, the emotions accumulated in Lujing Spring still boiled. These overflowing The emotions and memories have also affected you, it was my negligence, are you okay?"
Sora shook his head, still immersed in the memory fragments in his mind.
Paimon sighed: "As expected of the Dragon King of the water element, I remember that when he came to Dew King Spring before, he only heard the sound and did not cause any [emotional boiling]."
"Like you said, maybe it's because I'm special. In fact, it's not just Lujingquan. I can feel the emotions contained in the entire Fontaine water system. Rivers, lakes...even [rainwater]. But I can hardly By doing this, the emotions in the water are always messy, and as an outsider, it’s not a fun experience to have your brain filled with irrelevant memories.”
Sora suddenly said: "I just saw memories about you."
"Which ones are you referring to?"
"From the time you brought Carolee to Fontainebleau to the trial of Watling."
Upon hearing this, Villette let out a long sigh of relief.
"It doesn't matter. I won't take the initiative to bring up those memories, but I don't want to hide them either. Although it is a coincidence... but it is also a good thing to let you see it in this way. Now you should understand why there is an organization behind it this time. Trouble... the two things were so similar that I felt I had to do something."
Seeing that the atmosphere was too solemn, Paimon felt that he could hardly keep up with the conversation and that he was about to be excluded!
"I just discovered a strange thing while investigating Lu Jingquan. From the emotions accumulated in Lu Jingquan, I didn't find much hatred towards me. I don't know why this happened. Look There is no way to directly find out the organization hiding in the dark."
"But I found some hatred towards Chiara. The cause seems to be a smuggling case. I have some impressions."
Just then, the girl Huang Doudou came over.
"Why are you here? I was planning to go to Momang Palace to find you."
Paimon asked curiously: "Navia! We meet again, what do you want from us?"
Navia hesitated and said: "I heard something... uh, sorry, I didn't mean to inquire. It is said that someone wants to attack Meluxin, and you are also investigating. I will ask the Thorn Rose Society to help keep an eye on it. There were a lot of new faces in [Grey River] some time ago, and there might be the person you're looking for hidden inside."
Villette thought for a moment and asked Navia where she got the news.
Navia joked: "The Supreme Inquisitor goes out with foreign travelers... Even if you deliberately hide your whereabouts, countless pairs of eyes will notice you. You have contacted Chiara, and you have not asked Chiara to keep it secret. People who are interested will naturally I went to inquire about it, and the threatening letter spread quickly."
Although Villette was well prepared, the news spread faster than he expected.
"Speaking of which, are you making any progress here?"
Navilette said calmly: "The person who threatened Meluxin should be related to a smuggling case. But we are not sure if there is anyone behind it. We are going to go back to Momang Palace to read the details of the case and first find the suspect who sent the threatening letter."
Paimon asked with some worry: "Villette, will it cause any trouble if the things we are investigating spread out?"
Navilette: "I have already thought about it, there won't be any trouble. After the news came out, the other party at least did not dare to attack Melu Xin openly. In fact, what is more important is how the people view this matter. More than four hundred In the case two years ago, they chose to believe in the old forces and attack Meluxin... I hope they won't make the same mistake again this time. Let's go back to Momang Palace."
[Kaia: Maybe for Navilette, four hundred years seems like it happened yesterday]
[Shadow: Four hundred years is only a moment in the long life of an elemental being]
[Charlotte: Now in Fontaine, anyone who dares to attack Mei Luxin will definitely suffer crazy revenge from the Fontaine people]
[Keli: Keli has touched Meiluxin’s ears, wings and tail. They are soft and easy to touch]
[Xi Gewen: No wonder there was a rumor last time that there was a very hot red little girl in Melu Xin who liked to touch Melu Xin. It turned out to be Aunt Keli]
[Keli: Keli also likes Duduke, Lei Ze’s hair and Aunt Shenzi’s tail, both of which are easy to touch]
[Yae Shenzi: Don’t come next time. I don’t want to see you. The hair I have maintained for hundreds of years has been ruined by you.]
[Ying: Shenzi’s tail feels slippery to the touch, and it also has a scent]
[Kaia: Are you really not a fox? 】
[Miko Yae: I am not an ordinary fox, body odor will not appear on my body]
[Xiang Ling: The current Fontaine people are really good compared to the previous Fontaine people]
[Gan Yu: After more than 400 years of running-in, Meluxin has successfully integrated into human society and become a member of them]
[Shen He: Ying, are you free? The master has ordered a set of clothes for us, I think...]
[Ying: Yossi! Come here]
[Hutao: There is a sour smell of love, I’d better go find Qiqi, Qiqi likes me]
[Qiqi: Qiqi doesn’t like Hutao, you always want to bury me]
[Zhongli: Master, take your time, Qiqi is not very used to it yet]
[Hutao: One day, the relationship between Qiqi and I will be as good as the four of us]
...
On the way back to Momang Palace
There are more and more people on the street, as if they are having some kind of party.
"Have you all heard about it? Someone wants to take action against Meluxin. This is absolutely true. Even Lord Navilette, the Supreme Judge, is investigating!"
"Hey, with my bad temper - who dares to threaten Meluxin? Stand up!"
"The enemy is hiding in the dark and will definitely not show up easily, but no matter how well he hides, he can't escape from so many pairs of our eyes."
"Yes, that's what I mean. The security team has taken action on its own, and we can't be idle. Think about how much Meiluxin has helped us in normal times? Now that they are under threat, how can we sit back and do nothing?" Ke Nel shouted.
A reporter from Steam Bird Newspaper also said frankly: "During this period, everyone has worked hard to keep an eye on the surroundings. If you see anyone suspicious, report it to the security team immediately."
...
The young ladies from the police force also followed Mei Luxin every step of the way.
"Why do I feel like you've been following me all this time? What happened?"
Laurie explained: "We also got off work and were just on our way home."
"Thank you for your hard work. Have you eaten? There are new products in the dessert shop today. Do you want to go buy some together?"
[Ningguang: Carolei’s wish came true 400 years later, and her efforts were not in vain]
[Xigwen: Sister Carolei, this prosperous age is as you wish]
[Mona: Same location, sharp contrast between history and present]
[Kaia: No, sand got into my eyes. It’s even more uncomfortable to compare the beauty now with the past]
[Keli: Brother Kaiya, Keli will give you a blowjob]
[Nelu: Mr. Navilette’s self-awareness, Carolee’s dedication and sacrifice, and Watling’s exile and paving the way are so touching]
[Paimon: Navilite and Zhongli are the same, one abides by the rules and the other abides by the contract]
[Yan Fei: To improve the law, someone will always have to sacrifice.]
[Linny: Alas, it started to rain again, so I dared to dry the clothes]
[Funina: We’ve finished shopping in Xumi, next stop is Liyue! 】
[Ningguang: Miss Funina, welcome to Liyue, I hope you have fun in Liyue]
...
"I heard that Mr. Villette is very concerned about this matter? Haha, we have to perform well. This is a good opportunity for promotion and salary increase."
"Look what you said, then if Lord Villette doesn't pay attention, will you just give up?"
"You're just kidding. We have feelings for each other after working together for so many years. If anything happens to them, I will definitely feel guilty for the rest of my life."
...
"Stop hiding, you guy who threatens Mei Luxin."
"Have you heard that people from the special patrol team are also here to help..."
When Villette saw this scene, he suddenly had mixed feelings, and then the corners of his mouth rose slightly.
"How about it, would you like to go over and say a few words?"
Villette shook his head. It was fine as it was now. In the past, it might have caused unnecessary commotion.
...
Momang Palace
Navilette found the smuggling case file.
It read: The main criminals in the case, Domenico and Iniga, have been arrested. After trial, he was sent to Merlo-Petersburg. He was not involved in the smuggling case, but he had a close relationship with the main criminal and had interests in it. He was not convicted and focused on education. Among them, Ethan performed better and was released from observation in advance. The remaining personnel are still on the key observation list.
Just when Sora suggested telling Navia the news, Sedna came in and reported: "Sir Navilette, someone just came over to register, and the person claimed to be a member of the Rose of Thorns Society. He said [person] Already found, chatting in the cafe]."
....
咖啡 馆
Navia stared at the energetic young men in front of her.
Paimon and his party also happened to arrive.
Paimon thought these people were members of the Rose of Thorns Society. Navia shook her head and said: "These are the people who have recently dealt with the Shadow Chasing Court. They usually hide in the Gray River. I asked people to invite them over. .”
"I heard the coffee here is delicious, so I asked them if they wanted to come with us."
A man named Oudino said with a smile: "We are also very happy to receive the invitation from the Rose of Thorns Society."
"Haha, I've long wanted to get together like this."
The way Paimon looked at them, he always felt that something was bad. They looked happy, but they seemed to be forced.
"No matter what, let's get down to business first. Is Ethan here?"
"To!"
"Are you Ethan?"
Ethan trotted up to Navilette and said hesitantly: "Hello, Master Navilette..."
"Did you write that threatening letter to Chiara?" Navilette, who used to be calm, now had a chill in her tone.
"This..." Ethan was a little embarrassed.
Navia coughed dryly and motioned for him to continue.
"Yes...but, but I am also entrusted by others...Domenico, he used to be my eldest brother. He asked me to do things, and I had to listen..."
Navia asked curiously: "Domenico? Where is this person now?"
"Mello Petersburg."
After hearing the words Merlot Petersburg, Navia stopped talking for an instant. That was not what the Thorn Rose Club should talk about.
