But there's not much we can do about it.
Why is this trial related to the 'serial disappearances of teenage girls'?
In order to investigate her father's death and clear her name of the shameful title of 'Injustice Kares,' Navia clearly cannot afford to miss this potentially crucial clue.
Chapter 241 The Water God Should Be Like This
"Phew, you're finally here! Come here, come here!"
Inside the magnificent Opiclie Opera House, many audience members could be seen already seated. When Funina, who was waiting in front of the side gate, saw Jiang Qiao and the fairy Ellie, she waved her little hand and called out softly.
"Ah."
"What did you talk about with that young lady from the Rose Society?" Funina asked in a low voice, full of curiosity.
Seeing this, Jiang Qiao looked at the former with a half-smile:
"very curious?"
"How could that be...cough cough, okay, I admit it's a bit..." Funina wanted to deny it, but when she met those eyes that seemed to see right through her, she coughed twice, and then muttered weakly in a low voice:
"Honestly, at least give me some face..."
This 'acting water goddess' is characterized by her timidity, which is also a significant flaw in the context of her role as the 'water goddess.' Whenever this happens, it arouses suspicion from others. Fortunately, Funin always manages to smooth things over with her exaggerated and dramatic performances afterwards.
She was aware of her problem, of course, but there was nothing she could do about it.
The title of "Water Goddess" weighed heavily on Funina. Her seemingly glamorous exterior concealed a pressure valve beneath, and the long period of torment made this strong yet fragile girl lose control of herself.
It's hard to control my tears, and it's hard to suppress my weak nature. In fact, it becomes even harder to control myself as time goes by.
Perhaps it is only around people with whom she has a strained relationship that she is able to show this hidden side of herself.
But in such a vast place as Fontainebleau, perhaps only Navelette could truly achieve this... no, even Navelette couldn't do it.
It was only because of its non-human characteristics that Funina could relax a little.
However, she didn't have such concerns when facing Jiang Qiao. Knowing that the other party knew her background, after overcoming her initial fear, Fu Ningna now seemed to regard Jiang Qiao as a dumping ground for her unspoken grievances.
After all—since you know so much and said such things, don't blame me for being impolite!
"It's not a big deal, but a very exciting show is about to unfold."
Upon hearing this, Funina became somewhat excited.
"A big show? What big show!"
She hated playing other people, but she was quite interested in watching plays, especially dramas and farces. As long as she wasn't made to cover up anything afterwards, Fulina could enjoy watching them immensely.
The fact that she was able to endure for so long is, in a sense, partly because this opera house provided ample spiritual nourishment for people over the past five hundred years.
"Oh, someone's here. He looks like a really cold-looking middle-aged man."
"Really, don't interrupt... Oh, Vilette, you're here." The interrupted Fryna puffed out her cheeks slightly, giving the fairy Ellie a somewhat disgruntled look. Then, noticing the tall figure entering from the side, she gave a knowing look and greeted him.
Still dressed like a medieval nobleman, with silver hair and blue highlights, leaning on a cane, he walked towards us expressionlessly.
"Let me introduce you to Navelette, our Supreme Judge of Fontaine."
"Hello, and who are these two?" Vilette looked rather aloof, but was quite polite. Her gaze fell on Jiang Qiao and the fairy Ellie, with a mixture of doubt and... curiosity.
A human... but it felt a bit strange. As for that little one, although Teyvat is not lacking in creatures of this size, and most of them can even change their form due to their ability to transform, the fairy Ellie was still quite novel in Navelette's eyes.
Some resemble mechanical creations, yet they are brimming with the breath of life...
"Hello, hello, he is the reliable me, Jiang Qiao! And I am the fairy Ellie from the Kingdom of Fairy Music! It's nice to meet you!" Fairy Ellie fully played the role of a substitute, making Jiang almost think that he was in the same position as the blond siblings.
Hmm... It's fortunate that I didn't use Alicia's body to come over, otherwise it would have been even more similar.
"The Kingdom of Celestial Music... I'm sorry, but I've never heard of such a kingdom."
"It's okay, just think of her as something similar to a fairy or a Melusin."
Upon hearing this, Navelette suddenly understood.
I only have a vague understanding of the others you mentioned, but you brought up Fairy Spirit and Melusin. Let's leave the former aside for now, but the latter is something I came up with!
Although she was inclined to chat, after glancing at the time and the waiting bailiffs, Villette said apologetically:
"I apologize, I have official business to attend to and need to process some case files. There's still some time before the trial, so you're welcome to wander around here. Excuse my rudeness."
"Mr. Villette is really busy."
“That’s normal. Although he may appear to be just the Supreme Judge, in the Fontaine system, he is actually closer to a position like Prime Minister or Prime Minister.”
"After all, Fontaine is a country where the courts are the main focus."
"Hmph, you know a lot, don't you? Vilette is very capable."
Funina was quite proud, which made Jiang Qiao laugh a little:
"You seem to have it pretty easy being a hands-off boss."
"Ahem... I'm still doing the work, okay! I'm not entirely a hands-off manager..." The blue-and-white-haired girl muttered somewhat guiltily, with a hint of complaint: "I've been working hard for Fontaine all along."
"Yes, I know." Jiang Qiao nodded.
Regardless of the sacrifices Funina made by playing the role of a god for five hundred years with human will, she did indeed do a great deal of things in the process.
The investigation includes the prophetic secret organization, the construction of the Opéra Garnier Opera House, and so on...
Although her careless personality and secretive nature often made this unfortunate child somewhat rough around the edges and difficult to consider the bigger picture, Funina's contributions to this land are undeniable.
Of course—her greatest contribution was pinning the Water Dragon King to Fontainebleau, working overtime for five hundred years without any overtime pay!
Jiang Qiao felt that after reading it, Möbius would definitely have a lot in common with this child.
Sitting on the sofa in the side courtyard, savoring the black tea before the opening, the specially made black tea swirls leisurely in the exquisite tea set, reflecting Jiang Qiao's face.
A familiar sense of disorientation surfaced in my mind.
He slowly stood up, and looking at Jiang Qiao like this, Funina was somewhat puzzled.
...etc.
Sitting on the sofa, Funina suddenly looked at Jiang Qiao sitting opposite her with a strange expression. The more she looked at that face, the more familiar it seemed.
At first glance
Hey—isn't that Funinna?
Wait a minute, let me think about it.
Wait a minute, I'm Funinna!
After a few mental inequalities, the somewhat slow-witted Funina finally remembered what had happened, and then stared at herself with a look of utter disbelief... What... what happened? Jiang Qiao turned into her?
Wait... why does the view seem a bit high? And this position... I remember seeing the bookshelf just now, how did it suddenly disappear?
Subconsciously, Funina slowly looked down—oh, the amplitude was the same... no! It was clearly a little bigger than before!
The clothes, and... the hand slowly reached down, and then touched something indescribable.
At that moment, Miss Funina seemed to understand something, and was instantly struck dumb.
Her gaze met that of 'Funingna', who was in 'Jiang Qiao' form and burst into tears.
"What...what's going on?!"
Her voice trembled slightly—it was hard to imagine that Jiang Qiao's body would show such an expression, but since she was now using Funina, there was only one word to describe it—understanding!
"Well, it's a long story, it's an old problem of mine."
After adjusting to her new body for a while, the blue-and-white-haired girl, who had been rubbing her wrists and slowly sitting down, crossed her smooth, white thighs, and put her legs together, slowly turned her gaze to Funina.
As her abilities evolved, Jiang Qiao initially thought that the rather tricky random swapping feature might have disappeared, and therefore, she didn't pay much attention to it.
Unexpectedly, it was triggered again while I was playing in Teyvat.
Fortunately, Jiang was already very experienced and adept at this. He used other girls' bodies with the same skill as a driver driving a car.
As for Jiang Qiao's arrival, the bodies of the young girls went from initial discomfort to eventual loyalty!
Jiang Qiao, who had no particular curiosity, began to work on the mindset of the bewildered Funina.
The latter readily accepted—yeah right!
"Ahhh, how could this happen!"
Although she is actually quite old, Fufu, who is 500 years old, considers herself to be a very innocent young girl and still values her body quite a bit.
result...
Inexplicably, her body ended up in the hands of a man she had just met, and she became a boy, even though Funina was quite curious about the physiological structure of a boy's body.
—This doesn't mean she didn't know. Five hundred years have passed; even if she hadn't eaten pork, she must have seen pigs run. Medical school, strange films, and even books—out of curiosity, Funina's experience was quite extensive.
But to be honest, this is the first time I've ever been this close to a man's body... Well, it's not a question of closeness anymore, she's already been shoved inside him.
"Damn it, I knew I shouldn't have invited you!"
