Chapter 837 Diplomatic Meeting

"Knock knock knock", the thick carved door was knocked.

As soon as Villette said "Come in", a smiling girl poked her head out from behind the door, which brightened his mood.

Sue: "Well, Villette, we're here. Do you need any help?"

Navelette asked them to sit on the sofa, "There is indeed something important."

Navilette said that because the Fontaine side detained the executive officer [Young Master] without providing a detailed case report, the Dong side naturally exerted diplomatic pressure.

Navelette: "The Fourth [Servant] of the Fatui has initiated a diplomatic meeting with Lady Finina."

Su: "Wow, here comes the troublemaker. Is Funina okay?"

Navilette recalled how earlier in his office, Fernina had panicked, her pupils trembling, and she had almost rolled on the floor, clamoring for him to accompany her to the diplomatic meeting, and he looked troubled.

Sue: "It doesn't look good."

Not only was Funina in a bad condition, but Villette also looked like she had suffered some torture.

Navelette: "Although I promised Ms. Funina to attend this meeting, communicating and interacting with people outside of the courtroom is not my forte. Besides..."

That Villette said that the [Young Master] disappeared in Mellow Petersburg.

Regardless of whether he successfully escaped from prison or was "dealt with" by someone, the Fontainebleau officials, who were already in the wrong, cannot escape being held accountable.

Sora understood, "Then Villette wants us to act as an impartial third party and participate in the meeting and the investigation into the [Young Master's] disappearance."

"Yes," Navrette solemnly invited the Traveler Team to participate in this diplomatic meeting. "There are only a few people who currently possess this strength and credibility."

Su looked at the generous mission reward offered by Villette and put forward additional conditions.

Sue: "Then Violet and Funina must each grant me one wish!"

Navilette: "If it does not violate the law and personal will..."

Sue: "Deal!"

——*——*——

At the round table in the reception room, three groups of people each occupied one side.

Su sat next to the distraught-looking Furninna, face to face with the [Servant].

After seeing the [Servant] himself, the image of a big sister in maid outfit that Su had originally imagined shattered and disappeared, and was replaced by a woman with strange eyes and a strong aura.

His hair was a mixture of silver-gray and black, and his dark eyes had blood-red pupils that looked like crossed sword marks.

The cool-toned outfit is filled with sharp decorations, which perfectly matches her elegant yet dangerous aura.

Noticing Su's gaze, the [Servant] gave a polite smile.

Su picked up the teacup and drank the water without responding.

Who are you trying to fool with a smile that has no warmth at all?

"Although it can indeed be called a diplomatic meeting, I would rather regard our meeting today as an ordinary tea party." The [Servant] placed the cake he brought on the table.

"I heard that Miss Funina has had a poor appetite recently, so I specially prepared a limited-edition cake. I hope you like it."

Sora, who was sitting on Su's other side and quietly observing the situation, instantly interpreted more meaning from the seemingly friendly greeting of "Servant".

[Servant] This is clearly showing that she is well aware of the information about foreign gods!

Either someone around Funina had already been bribed by her, or someone around Funina was sent by her.

[Servants] are exerting psychological pressure fearlessly.

Finina instantly understood the servant's implication and became even more tense. "That's not the case."

Funina flatly denied it, "It's just that my pastry colonel is away for the time being, and I've lost interest in cakes."

"Indeed," the [Servant] continued in a friendly tone, following Finina's words, "ordinary pastries are neither worthy of your status nor satisfying to you."

The servant changed the subject, "However, the cake I brought is indeed delicious. I hope you will be so kind as to try it."

Finina stared at the cake brought by the [Servant] as if facing a great enemy, and urgently thought about how to refuse it in a reasonable way.

Su stretched out the silver fork in his hand and took a piece of the divided cake, then took a bite with a "ah".

Finina's eyes widened, and she blurted out in a panic, forgetting the occasion. "Why did you really eat it?! What if she poisoned it?"

But she knew how vicious and evil the executive officer in front of her was!

She wouldn't be wrong! Those special eyes are the ironclad proof!

Su looked nonchalant, "I have plenty of antidotes."

"What if it's a poison that even the antidote can't cure?!" Funina really wanted to see what was going on in the girl's mind!

Su: "Those who can't kill me..."

Finina reflexively continued, "Will it make you stronger?"

Su announced the correct answer, "...I will eventually exact my vengeance."

Furninna's silence was deafening.

There was a soft sound, and the [servant] who seemed to be concentrating on drinking tea put down his teacup, and there was finally a real smile in his eyes.

Servant: "I didn't expect that Miss Su and I would have such similarities in some areas."

When she was weak, the being who called herself "mother" could abuse everyone at will.

When she was strong enough, it would be just a fragile sacrifice that fell as she advanced.

The servant invited Su, "After this meeting, would you like to come to the Hearth House and sit down?"

"I'm often away from Fontaine due to my busy official duties. I heard that the children of Hearth House have received a lot of care from you. I should express my gratitude more formally."

Su pretended not to hear the [Servant]'s invitation.

Although his opinion of the Fatui has changed a bit, Su still doesn't like the Fatui guys.

Linnet, Femini, and Linny had no choice but to join the Hearth House.

Just because she is friends with them doesn't mean she accepts all of the Fatui.

The [Servant] turned to Furninna mid-sentence and said, "Oh, I'm not referring to the false accusations against my children, Linny and Linnet. Please don't misunderstand me."

Seeing that Funina was so guilty that she was restless, Su Meng patted her on the back.

"Sit up straight! Stand tall! Don't let her aura and rhetoric overwhelm you!"

Funina felt a pain in her back but she felt better.

"Every accusation must be tried. We have handled Mr. Linny's case with fairness. Ms. Funina's testimony regarding Mr. Linny's Fatui during the debate was also correct."

Villette also used his professionalism as the highest judge of Fontaine to reasonably push back the invisible pressure exerted by the [Servant].

The servant nodded calmly. "Children of Hearth House are always easily misunderstood. Perhaps it has something to do with the Fatui's reputation outside. There's nothing we can do about it."

The most uncomfortable person present was undoubtedly Paimeng. She really couldn't stand this weird atmosphere, the back-and-forth confrontations, and the scene of flying knives in the dark.
