Genshin Impact: I am playing cultivating immortals in Teyvat
Chapter 167 Argument
The trial started on time the next day, and I don’t know who spread the news about this trial.
Opening the door of the opera house, a huge crowd poured in like a tidal wave.
In just a few minutes, the entire theater was filled to capacity, and there were even many people standing in the aisles.
What's more, he moved a small chair and sat in an open place. It probably wasn't the first time he had done this, and each move became more proficient than the last.
This scene reminded Luo Yu of his childhood. When he was in the countryside, whenever he encountered large-scale activities or performances in the village, the villagers in front of the wooden platform also looked like this.
On the high platforms on both sides of the stage were the positions of the 'plaintiff' and the 'defendant' respectively, with Navilette standing in the middle.
Below him is a machine similar to a scale, which should be the so-called oracle and ruling cardinal.
"Now that both parties are in place, this [trial] regarding the magic emergency has officially begun."
"Well, first of all, in order for the audience present to understand the cause and effect of the case, please ask Mr. Linney to tell you about the magic technique."
"Ok."
Under Navilette's arrangement, Linney faced the audience and told the mechanism behind his magic, which of course included the secret tunnel.
In the end, it ended with the reason that ‘I ran into the magic box on the side of the auditorium from the beginning, and there was no time to commit the crime’.
After confirming that nothing was missing, Funina stood up from her seat on the high platform on the other side with a confident smile:
"Hmph, let me light this first fire!"
As he spoke, he pointed at Linni with his finger and his tone was full of excitement:
"Mr. Linney, you are lying!"
Then, completely ignoring the surprised looks of others, he walked on the high platform and analyzed by himself:
"Because you want to kidnap Halsey and knock Cowell out, you definitely can't stay in the box or even in the tunnel."
"This is just your assumption based on my guilt."
"Okay, then let me ask you, did you hear anything when you were in the box?"
"No."
As soon as these words came out, the scene was in an uproar, and the cardinal who ordered the ruling slowly tilted towards Funina.
Only then did Ying remember that when the countdown was about thirty seconds, there was indeed a muffled sound. Although it was not loud, it could definitely be heard.
It is estimated that Linni was in the underground room of the Cardinal's core at the time, so he did not know.
Seeing the audience talking incessantly, Funina looked very proud and quickly struck while the iron was hot:
"Let me tell you another piece of news. The great magicians Mr. Linny and Miss Linnette are actually from [Hearth House]."
"So that's it."
"No wonder he would do something like this."
"Fools, it's normal..."
Hearing the comments from the audience, Ying was relieved. He didn't expect that the other party would really use Linny's identity to make a fuss. Fortunately, he told himself about this matter yesterday.
Otherwise, with such a big identity concealed, there will inevitably be some resentment between them.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but look back at Luo Yu, who was dozing against the wall. Fortunately, he mentioned it at that time.
"Sorry, I don't think Linney's identity has anything to do with this case."
The sonorous and powerful voice passed through the surrounding discussions and reached everyone's ears accurately.
Funina's face was full of surprise, obviously she did not expect this situation.
In her imagination, shouldn't Linni explain anxiously after being exposed, and the traveler should leave immediately?
Why do they have such calm expressions on their faces? And one is even napping? !
"Ahem, so what."
Suppressing her inner panic, Funina coughed twice, attracted everyone's attention, and then nodded.
"Let me tell the truth about this case!"
"First of all, Linney came into the tunnel just as the audience's countdown began."
"As the flatbed truck passed by, he opened the box and got entangled with Halsey, which caused the muffled sound."
"He didn't think everyone in the theater could hear the sound, so he deliberately said he didn't hear it."
"In the end, Linney knocked Halsey unconscious with a vase, and was worried about being recognized, so he took off her coat."
"But at this time, Cowell heard the sound and came down to check, and happened to encounter Linney who had committed the crime."
"In order to keep it from being revealed, he stuffed Cowell into a magic box."
"Then hand over Halsey to her companions and murder Cowell in the operating mechanism."
The overall analysis does not sound wrong, and is even quite reasonable, but if a few of them are taken out individually, it cannot withstand scrutiny.
"Linny wasn't lying in the first place when he didn't hear the sound."
Ying obviously realized this and took out the pieces of clothes
"He got into the ventilation duct at that time. Maybe he was far away from the theater, so he didn't hear it."
"The pieces of clothing here were picked up at the entrance of the ventilation duct."
Compared with Fu Nina's guess without evidence, Ying who can produce physical evidence is obviously more convincing.
As the cardinal's decree slowly shifted, Funina still said harshly:
"That, that doesn't mean he can't commit the crime. Maybe he did it on purpose."
This situation is certainly not impossible, but it is unlikely that anyone would even figure this step out.
If that were the case, why would Linney need them as agents?
"In addition, you said that Linny handed Halsey over to his companions, but Meluxin, who is responsible for guarding the gate, can prove that no one came in or out at all."
"Does that mean that the missing girl is still in the theater?"
This passage left Funina speechless. She opened her mouth, not knowing what to say.
After all, the guards turned over almost the entire theater except for the crime scene, leaving no trace at all.
Seeing the other party's slightly panicked look, Ying raised the corners of her mouth slightly and said directly:
"Finally, and most importantly, Cowell was actually responsible for the props for Linney's performance, but we found highly flammable combustion aids in the load-bearing ropes of the water tank."
"Could it be that he doesn't know about this situation? Or does he want to use this performance to do something else?"
"Besides, I don't think this great magician would be stupid enough to commit a crime in front of so many people."
As the cardinal's decree slowly shifted, Funina couldn't help but shook her head:
"According to what you say, the real criminal is not Cowell? Is this possible?"
Ying touched her chin. Although this matter was indeed a bit unbelievable, for now, this was the most reasonable explanation.
The most important thing now is, where is Halsey?
