Chapter 945 The Talented Villain
Chapter 945 The Talented Villain
After everyone rested for a while, Navelette originally planned to try to retrieve memories and clues from the Dew Spring again, but was interrupted by a commotion.
The traveler's party and Navelette looked into the distance and saw a human wall formed by the Fontaines.
"Have you all heard? Someone's trying to harm Melusin!"
"Really? Who is it?! The Merusians have done so many good things for Fontaine over the past few hundred years!"
"During the recent floods, how many people were pulled ashore by Melucin? Who is so heartless?!"
"This is absolutely true! Even the Supreme Judge and... and Miss Knight are investigating!"
"The security force has already mobilized, and we can't stand idly by! Anyone who dares to threaten Melusin, step forward and exchange a few blows with me!"
Seeing this, Paimon gaped in astonishment, "Who? Who leaked the information?!"
Navelette was also somewhat surprised. "I really didn't think this could be kept secret for long, but the speed at which the news spread exceeded my expectations."
Su glimpsed Melusin's pale pink fur through the gap in the human wall. "Chiara? Why are you out?"
“Sister Su,” Chiara ran over through the path cleared by the human wall, “Lord Vilette!”
Chiara ran over and tilted her little face up to explain, "I didn't go out on purpose, I just made an appointment with Sister Elove..."
“Elov?” Paimon remembered. “I think she was a shop assistant at Chioriya.”
"Yes!" Chiara nodded happily. "Sister Elove invited me to be a children's clothing model!"
Kong was puzzled. "How did things turn out like this?"
Chiara scratched her head in confusion, "I don't know either..."
She chatted with the customers in the shop for a while, and after she came out, many people surrounded her and offered to escort her, so she quickly ran to find Lord Vilette.
The people of Fontainebleau, who love gossip and are good at spreading news, have already spread the news of Melousin receiving a threatening letter throughout the streets and alleys.
Upon hearing the news, the people of Fontaine not only immediately began escorting Chiara, but also escorted every Melusin they encountered along the way.
They even started registering information and arranging a three-shift duty schedule, intending to ensure that every Meilushin was guarded 24 hours a day before the criminals were caught.
Seeing this lively yet chaotic scene, which also demonstrated the Fontaines' love for the Melousin, the Traveler's team and Navelette fell silent.
After a long pause, Paimon said helplessly, "Although I'm very touched by everyone's kindness, this has completely alerted the suspect, and it seems even harder to find him now..."
Su recalled the Fontaine people who had insulted and attacked Melusin with stones in her memories, and now, looking at the Fontaine people who were protecting Melusin, she felt very complicated.
She still dislikes most of the people of Fontainebleau!
But we can forgive them for a little while today.
Sora: "Carole... no, all of Melusin, they proved themselves with their actions and time."
Just as Villette managed to calm the enthusiastic crowd in Fontainebleau, another wave of noise erupted.
A group of burly men with bruised and swollen faces, full of high spirits and joy, escorted a man over.
"Miss Su! He's the culprit!" The burly man at the head of the group kicked the man who had been brought in to his knees. "Confess!"
The man, who had been brutally beaten by a group of angry and aggrieved men, raised his miserable, bruised face and shouted, "I'll confess everything! I'll confess everything!"
“Essan?” Navelette quickly recognized the man and recalled his information.
“I remember you were an accomplice in a smuggling case that Chiara cracked. Because of your minor involvement in the crime and good behavior in prison, your sentence was shortened by five years and you left Melo Petersburg early.”
Ethan, who never expected that the Supreme Judge would remember him, a mere underling, trembled all over. "I...I've already turned over a new leaf, Your Honor!"
Kong: "How could someone who has reformed send a threatening letter to Meilushin?"
Paimon: "Tell us who's behind this! If you dare to resist, we'll teach you a lesson!"
"I...I was also entrusted by someone..." Essan, who dared not struggle, quickly explained the cause and effect.
His former boss, who used to lead him in smuggling, suddenly contacted him, asking him to "do something big to rebuild the team's reputation!"
Having not been a villain for many years, Essan dared not defy his older brother who lived a life of danger. After much deliberation, he chose to send a threatening letter to Melusin.
Navilette: "Why choose Melousin?"
"Because they have good tempers, they can say it was a prank and get forgiveness if they are discovered... I really didn't intend to do anything more bad, sir!"
Is it because Meiluxin is kind-hearted that she deserves to be bullied?
Su laughed, "Clench your teeth."
Ethan was puzzled. "Huh? Pfft!"
Several yellowed teeth were sprayed onto the ground along with splattered blood.
Su twirled her wrist, clicked her tongue, and shook her head. "I kindly reminded you, didn't I?"
The burly gangsters who had been bullied by Su helped Essan, who had fallen to the ground, to his feet and hurriedly put him back in a kneeling position. "It's because this useless kid was too slow to react! He failed to live up to your kindness."
Su was somewhat cheered up by this pure and unpretentious flattery.
With a snap of her fingers, she cast healing water rings on the group of burly men, instantly healing the injuries she had inflicted on them.
The burly gangsters stood with their hands behind their backs and shouted in unison, "Thank you for your magnanimity!"
Paimon looked at the girl and then at the burly gangster, his feelings extremely complicated.
This is bad! This is bad! It feels like a group of people who are incredibly good at cooperating with Su have appeared!
Sora and Navelette also sensed something was wrong. Not wanting the girl to go astray, they quickly drove away the "people unrelated to the case" who were reluctant to leave.
Essan wept bitterly, tears of regret streaming down his face along with the blood that he couldn't hold in his mouth.
Even though the just and supreme judge stood before him, he still could not see the light of salvation.
For the law to bring justice to a vicious young girl, the first step is for someone to file charges, and then the Opiclie Opera House, which receives the charges, will hold a trial.
But would he dare to sue the knight who was still eyeing him with predatory intent?
He wouldn't dare!
Are there any kind-hearted people who can help file charges or lawsuits?
Even the Fontainebleau residents who were watching from afar didn't dare to do it!
Besides, almost everyone in Fontainebleau resented him for sending threatening letters to Melousin.
He has now become a pariah, cursed by everyone who sees him.
Even if he screams his lungs out, probably no one will come to save him.
I regret it now! I regret it so much... Waaah...
Without a lawsuit, a trial cannot begin.
Navelette sighed inwardly; Fontaine's laws did indeed have many flaws.
Su Neng's ability to exploit legal loopholes to evade trial demonstrates his keen insight into this point.
However, no law can ever be perfect.
Countless legal professionals can only constantly find a balance between procedural justice and substantive justice by filling in the gaps.
