Genshin Impact: Funina's Official Pastry Chef

"Huh?! Illegal...drugs?"

Paimeng was a little surprised for a moment, and then he suddenly said:

"Oh! Chang Ming, are you talking about the organization that Vaughn mentioned that was dissolved?"

Chang Ming glanced at Paimeng approvingly, then turned to Navia and said, "Give me some time. I need to find some clues about them."

"But... whether we can find it or how much we can find, I can't be completely sure now, because it's been a long time, and my office..."

Chang Ming looked at his office which was piled with documents everywhere, smiled awkwardly, and then sighed.

"Hey... I've been looking for it since the trial ended yesterday. At this rate, I should be able to finish it by tomorrow morning..."

After saying this, Chang Ming fell into silence. After a while, he slowly spoke:

"How about this, if you have time tomorrow at noon, come to Mo Mang Palace again, and I will give you an accurate answer then."

"Of course, I don't have the person's file here. Otherwise... I'll take you to Villette to have a look? At least we can have another source of information and a means to do so."

"Well... I may need to attend the "trial" temporarily. If you can't find me in Momang Palace, come to the opera house."

Chang Ming's suggestion made Navia fall silent, and it took her a while to react.

She said a little sullenly: "Well...Okay, thank you Mr. Chang Ming."

"You're welcome, Navia."

"Mr. Cares is my good friend. Over the years, I have been looking for information related to the "Serial Missing Girls Case", but..."

Chang Ming sighed, pointed to the pile of documents on the desk, and continued:

"However, I am busy with official duties, and these guys are hiding too well, so the investigation is progressing at a snail's pace..."

"I'm already...very grateful for your help in the investigation."

Looking at Navia's expression in front of him, Chang Ming sighed softly.

He knew exactly why Navia was suddenly so depressed.

But...it wasn't that Villette's fault.

Thinking of this, Chang Ming shook his head slightly, and then led everyone out of the office door to find Villette.

......

"So, Mr. Villette, are you there? I have something I want to know from you."

Chang Ming knocked gently on the door of Villette's office and asked softly.

"I'm here, please come in."

The majestic voice of Villette came from it, and Chang Ming pushed open the door in front of him without any courtesy.

Navelette, who was sitting at his desk reviewing the trial report, was a little surprised when he saw four people coming in at once.

But the surprise soon faded away, and then he asked, "Is there something important that you are looking for me?"

"To be precise, it should be the three people behind me. They need to investigate a name called "Vashie"."

Chang Ming said it succinctly.

"He is very likely a witness to the 'serial disappearance of girls' case'. I think... this will be a very important clue!"

Hearing this, Villette looked at Chang Ming in front of him, then looked at the two people beside him, and then nodded thoughtfully.

"I see. Please wait a moment while I check the files."

As Villette said this, he walked towards the large bookshelves nearby and began to look through them.

During this time, Navia looked at Navillatte who was searching the files with some nervousness, and kept praying in her heart...that things would have a good outcome.

As time passed, Villette finally finished searching the files, and then shook his head at them.

"Unfortunately, neither in the paper files nor in my mind did the name Vashjer appear."

Hearing this, Ying sighed with some regret.

"There's nothing I can do...it's all in vain in the end..."

Paimon shook his head in frustration, then continued:

"Could it be that... Ying, you really just had a dream...?"

Hearing what the two people around her said, Navia's expression gradually became depressed.

She lowered her head slightly, hiding her facial expression under the brim of her hat, making it difficult to see clearly.

"Really... Well, thank you, Lord Villette, and thank you, Mr. Chang Ming. We will... go back first."

After Navia finished speaking, she walked towards the door of Villette's office. Her slightly heavy footsteps made these two people who had lived for almost five hundred years... feel a little uncomfortable.

After a moment of silence, Villette slowly spoke:

"...Ms. Navia, I understand your feelings. Your father, Mr. Carres, was an outstanding man, and his death is truly regrettable."

"That Villette!" Chang Ming shouted in a low voice.

But... the words have been spoken, and it's too late.

After hearing what Villette said, Navia's already depressed and gloomy mood was instantly ignited.

Her voice trembled slightly as she asked back:

"So Mr. Villette...what is this?"

"Sympathy for me? Comfort? Or as you said, 'regret'?"

"No...neither..."

Navia turned around after she finished speaking, her gray-blue eyes staring directly at Villette, and said in a somewhat suppressed tone:

"I can tell that there is no emotion in your words. You just think you should say this at this moment..."

"Navia..."

Chang Ming looked at the girl who walked quickly to Villette with some concern, and didn't know what to say for a moment.

Even though he was eloquent and had already prepared for possible scenarios,...

He still couldn't do it.

He is a living person and he has no right to stop others from expressing their emotions.

Just like now, even though he had thousands of words accumulated in his heart, he still couldn't say a word.

He knew that Navia...needed an emotional outlet.

Judging from the current situation, Cares' case was an unjust case, but... the person is gone, so there is no point in saying anything.

And now, after so many years of tracking down and finally getting a clue, Navia was suddenly told that everything was in vain. She really couldn't hold it anymore.

"Forget it... I'll help them later..."

Chang Ming sighed slightly and listened quietly to Navia's questioning.

"You clearly told me that you also felt that there was still something fishy about the case, but you still acquiesced to the duel."

"In your eyes, the value of life is not as valuable as those ruthless rules and laws in your hands!"

"If you really feel sorry for my father's death, why didn't you stop him at that time?!"

"Why...why don't you give me the right to stop him?!"

"Why let him die with such a bad name on his shoulders!"

"I still have a lot to say to him... He still owes me answers to a lot of questions..."

"If you really feel regret... then look at me! Look into my eyes and see what the so-called "regret" really is!"

Hearing this, Villette subconsciously raised his head and glanced at Navia in front of him, then immediately lowered his head, closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and said:

"I'm sorry... Miss Navia."

All of Violet's actions were seen by Navia.

She looked at the man in front of her, gently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and then gently shook her head.

"You are really a lot like him. Like my dad, you always suppress a lot of things in your heart and never want to tell others."

“I can clearly feel a lot of things, but I never express them.”

"That's all..."

Navia shook her head gently, turned around and said a few words to Ying and Paimon before leaving the office together.
