Chapter 1527: Petric Town, Attack

"Greetings, Lord Water God... My name is Kotori." Cleverly introduced herself carefully.

Eating with the water god is something I would never dare to do in my dreams.

Mr. Jiang Yi brought her to have such a meal. The mark of her belonging to the Hearth House would probably be completely washed away. Even if the Fatui found out that she was the missing Krevie, they would not dare to act rashly.

"...Yandora..." As a pure water spirit, Yandora had heard many stories about the water gods of this generation. When she introduced herself, her tone was flat and all her emotions were hidden under the water.

"Hello... Don't worry about table manners, just eat and drink in the way you are used to." Funina crossed her legs and picked up the knife and fork. "Don't be embarrassed. Don't be afraid to eat just because I haven't moved!"

Yandora, the pure water spirit, the angel closest to God...

Maomao Chong, whose human name is Jiang Yi, and whose god name is Jinque Miro Xuhuang Shangdi.

She secretly took the jade slip to review the intelligence of the God of Man, held her head high, ate elegantly, and muttered to herself.

This pure water elf wouldn't want to be an assassin, right?

Everyone in our family knows their own business. There was once a pure water elf who was dissatisfied with me.

This one... doesn't look like it means any harm to me.

What? You said I was afraid that as a god I couldn't defeat this little creature?

Ahem! The God of Justice never wins by force, but by rules and laws.

You said that I didn’t say that before, the protection of the law depends on...

Huh? Today's cake is delicious.

"Mr. Jiang Yi, are you giving reminders in the courtroom because you are afraid that the prisoner will escape?" Although there were a lot of inner dramas, they had been together for a while. On the surface, Funina had gradually adapted to how to chat with Jiang Yi.

It's a good start.

"What I actually wanted to show at that time is that we can't completely trust surveillance and think that everything will be fine if we rely on surveillance to find the criminal." Jiang Yi smiled and cut a piece of "Fontaine foie gras" with a knife and fork.

Knowing that the God of Man can eat, Fontaine prepared many famous dishes.

For example, this piece of Fontaine foie gras is browned on the surface and soft and delicate on the inside, like a silky ribbon.

This extremely rich delicacy is known as the traditional delicacy that “if you eat it, you will be ruined for life; if you don’t eat it, you will be ruined for life.”

It is paired with jam to enrich the taste, and embellished with jasmine leaves to add color. It is delicious and fragrant.

"What you see can deceive your senses. Magicians often use methods to attract attention to cover up the real secrets, don't they?"

"Surveillance is a new thing, but solving a case absolutely requires the detailed reasoning of guards and detectives, who ponder over every suspicious point repeatedly."

"Otherwise, it would be too easy to let go and ignore the real mastermind."

Jiang Yi cut the second piece of foie gras, dipped it in some jam, and put it into his mouth.

In front of Funina was a small cake. Cake was her favorite, and she never got tired of eating it at any time of the day. She also shared two of her favorite cakes with Krewe and Yandora.

"Yeah! That's true..." She nodded.

Anyway, just respond first.

And the God of Man was not wrong.

"I once heard that even gods have blind spots..." Jiang Yi ate slowly, "I heard a similar statement when I was visiting Fontaine."

"It is impossible for people in high positions to see everything. A single perspective can easily lead to targeted blindness or guarding. Sometimes changing perspective can help to clear the clouds and see the sun."

"We will infiltrate and deal with the filth that remains in the gaps in those blind spots."

“It’s a very interesting passage.”

He finished his foie gras, took a short rest, and looked at Funina.

Krevy thought about the deeper meaning of Jiang Yi's words.

Is it okay to say such suggestive words in front of God?

"You mean the 'Rose Thorn Society'?" Finina thought about it. Even if she didn't participate in political affairs, she still knew a little about Navia, the second-generation president of the "Rose Thorn Society", but only a little.

Eh? Before dinner, Navia said she was going to investigate some case... but she didn't place her hopes on my men.

Does CatCatCat want me to support her investigation? Or is she dissatisfied with some aspects of the Fontaine Guards?

"It's not just them. Don't you think that the people who speak on the Internet also have a different perspective from the gods and nobles?... Let those in high places hear many different voices, voices that were ignored before." Jiang Yi took a sip of the "cream of mushroom soup" which is common in Fontaine's tradition.

The silky and warm taste is no longer like satin, but as if being wrapped in a piece of velvet, spinning and jumping on the stage... After one bite, the performance has ended, but the endless aftertaste lingers for a long time.

"And conversely, criminals can use the perspective of the upper class to commit crimes, and humans can use the blind spots of the gods' vision to build their own order, and the gods can also..."

He paused.

He smiled and said, "I hope Ms. Funina understands that I am not criticizing your country or anything. I am just expressing my feelings about today's case."

"A private gathering like this is not a diplomatic occasion, and the discussion is not about politics, right?"

Fu Nina paused for a moment, wiped the corners of her mouth that were stained with cake cream with a tissue, and said vaguely: "Yes, private chats can be about anything...you can be more casual."

Even gods can deceive the heavens...Is this what you want to say?

As the most powerful person in the world... you who long to lead humans into the starry sky and create a new order... what will you do to Gao Tian?

Yandora looked up.

The water god at the table seemed to speak much more normally than in the courtroom.

She took a sip of the bubble orange juice.

Soothing music was playing in the opera house, and outside the window the stars had already floated up into the dark blue sky.

"By the way, Ms. Funina, remember I said I was here for a trip, right?" Jiang Yi looked at the sky.

"Yes... yes!" On the court, it was basically Jiang Yi who was talking and Funina who was listening.

"Petriko Town..."

"It's a small town located outside the Fontaine High Sea, in the Nostoi District, close to the normal sea area on the Xumi side."

"Legend has it that there have been many wonderful dreams and moving legends, but none of them have been able to change the peaceful life of the town."

"Whenever the sea breeze blows away the sound of the evening bells, the people in the town spend another leisurely day." Jiang Yi crossed his fingers, "And buried under that town is the ancient civilization of Fontaine - Lemuria."

"An ancient civilization centered around music, whose written 'mnemonics' were used to record music."

He listened to the music of the opera house at that moment.

He continued with a smile on his face.

"It is said that they once built huge musical instruments that were more magnificent than opera houses, which could make the music reach the sky. It is said that they also drove music boats that could carry thousands of people, transmitting the sighs and tremors of every syllable to the most remote corners of the empire. The civilization of Fontaine was greatly influenced by them, especially in art."

Funina nodded. "Are you interested in Fontaine's history, art, and music? I can give you... an archaeological pass."

"As you said..."

"Boethius, one of the greatest musicians in Fontaine's history, was once a 'tune-teller' in the court of Lemuria."

In the fields of drama, music and art, Funina can talk to people confidently.

"Well, there is another story that interests me." Jiang Yi picked up the fork, with a baked pasta in front of him.

The meat sauce is sublimated in the song of pot and fire, and it takes the crown on the throne of dough and cheese. People want to designate the day when they taste this delicacy as "Lasagna Meat Sauce Day".

Lasagna with meat sauce, one of Fontaine’s unparalleled delicacies, is also the staple of this meal.

"The great Remus arrived in Fontaine. In his vision there was a great and eternal city: Lemuria. He taught all living things, and finally he touched a corner of his dream. Then came the prophet's innocent but terrifying announcement: The golden chapter will eventually end, and Lemuria will perish."

Funina forced a smile, as Fontaine was now facing the prophecy of "destruction".

"It is often said that if a hero does not die when he returns home, he will become a tyrant. Lemuria gave justice to escape his fate, but in the end, this justice turned into tyranny because of excessive giving. And tyranny ushered in a raging resistance. The great Remus, the foolish Remus, the far-sighted Remus, the lonely Remus, disappeared from then on."

Justice... Justice...

Oh! You're not talking about me.

After all, I am a lazy politician.

As Furninna ate her second piece of cake, she felt that it was too difficult to talk to such a riddle man. Every word he said was irrelevant, but every word seemed like a hint.

But I, Fukalos, am definitely different from Lemuria. Facing fate...

"Come to think of it, I've occasionally dreamed of music recently." Jiang Yi dreamed of at least three disasters that were enough to destroy Fontaine, from the ancient Lemuria, to the blue-purple dream ocean, and then to the revived long-lost consciousness.

"Oh! Maybe it's because... there's music playing next to the hotel you're staying at at night." Funina joked.

"That's possible..." Jiang Yi smiled and took a bite of food. "I wonder if Ms. Funina plays music games. The God of Wisdom once said that games are the best way to bring people closer together."

"After dinner, how about we play a few songs?"

"Are you talking about the music-playing game with various buttons on the jade slip?" Funina smiled confidently, "To be honest, even gods from other countries cannot defeat me. At most, it will be a draw."

For this game, even if you are a god with a hand speed a hundred times faster than mine, you still have to follow the rhythm of the music.

And I have always rated every game as perfect.

Ah? Want to play a game? Krewei didn't dare to speak. When adults are talking, children don't interrupt. But it was boring to sit and eat, listening to the gods and Mr. Jiang Yi talking about things that he was not very interested in.

But she gave the best comments to the cake provided by the water god.

too delicious.

It is only inferior to the birthday cakes made for her by Jiang Yi and Yan Duola. After all, the latter has emotional added value.

The dessert after the meal was "puff puffs."

The fluffy pastry, wrapped with rich butter, is round and bulging, just like the cute belly of the Bulbasaur. I couldn't help but finish all the rest after taking a bite.

Ugh! If I were a normal human, I would be too full to eat anymore.

Don’t be the last one…

It was great to eat delicious cream-filled desserts. My stomach could hold so much, and I felt so happy to be alive.

And there is no need to worry about gaining weight due to such high calories.

Sofa, black tea.

The two gods began to play games without any image, wearing headphones and sitting side by side on the sofa.

Yandora and Krevy were forced to participate.

Use Jiang Yi's jade slip to compete with the Water God in the music game.

"Hahahahaha! Perfect! Let's go to a level, choose the highest difficulty, and the music will be random... so that you can stop me from saying that I only picked Fontaine's music and bullying you."

As a master of the game, Funina is very serious and she will not give in even to children.
