The immortal body is called Teevat

Chapter 154: Backstabbing by a Family Member

But at this time Wu Cheng felt quite bored. He didn't know how long it would take for this so-called trial to end. There should be no other reversals after this. At this time, Willy also reminded him that the second-generation water god Fucaros was watching him.

Then Wu Cheng raised his head and saw Fu Nina sitting in her seat, looking quite solemn and silent like a god. She was looking at him as if to say, "Helping you just now is my basic principle as the God of Justice. Don't worry about it."

Wu Cheng then used gestures to express his gratitude to Funina for defending him, and then turned his attention to other people.

Wu Cheng looked at Wright next to him again. There was still no extra emotion in his eyes, as if he was a judgment machine without any emotions.

Time passed by minute by minute, and soon, the Fontaine Guards brought a large box of things back to report to Navillatte: "Lord Navillatte, we found several treasures that were stolen in Cesar's room in recent years. These stolen treasures are all related to the Phantom Thief Marten."

Cesar, who was full of confidence just now, suddenly looked as pale as death. He couldn't understand why the items stolen by the strange thief Diao were found in his room?

He knew very well that he was a law-abiding magician, and was definitely not the strange thief Diao who had been rampant in Fontaine for decades.

For a moment, he turned his eyes to Lorenzo and Gemma. An incredible idea was growing in his mind, but once it started, it would never stop.

At this moment, he suddenly remembered that his wife Gemma had said that she wanted to clean the house, so he asked him to go out first and not disturb her cleaning.

Cesar had cleaned the room four days before, so he was sure that there were no unfamiliar things in his room.

At that time, he just thought that Gemma was a clean person, but now it seems very likely that these things appeared in his room at that time, and the person who put these things there is self-evident. It was his wife Gemma.

At this time, Cesar realized that his wife and apprentice might have joined forces to murder him long ago, and even if the murder failed, they had a so-called retreat. What was their ultimate goal?

Afterwards, when Villette was holding the evidence he had searched in Cesar's room, he did not look relaxed as if the case was clear. Instead, he looked quite solemn. This case was not as difficult as Villette had imagined. In fact, it was too simple.

He thought that all the steps seemed too easy. How could the famous thief Diao, who had been rampant in Fontaine for decades, make such a low-level mistake as leaving the stolen goods in his own residence?

Villette could feel that there seemed to be an invisible thread controlling the entire trial, but he could not tell who was behind it. In any case, the trial of this case seemed to be going too smoothly.

If Cesar is really the Phantom Thief Marten who has been rampant in Fontaine for more than ten years, then Villette has reason to suspect that it is the incompetence of Fontaine's law enforcement system that has allowed the Phantom Thief Marten to run rampant in Fontaine for decades.

Because a low-level thief like Cesar can run rampant in Fontaine for decades, not to mention other more evil things hiding in the dark, so the law enforcement system of Fontaine is too weak.

Of course, Villette thought this was impossible. After all, Fontaine's law enforcement system was created by himself, and he naturally knew it well. He knew very well that this was definitely not the case and was obviously not in line with the so-called reality.

How could Diao, a thief with rich criminal experience, leave the evidence of his crime in his room? In any case, the search for evidence was so smooth that Villette believed that there must be many doubts.

In order to prove the authenticity of Gemma's testimony, Villette turned his gaze to Lorenzo, who had been lowering his head. After all, Gemma's testimony just now also mentioned Lorenzo's involvement.

So Lorenzo is also a witness, so naturally he needs to be asked whether he agrees with Gemma's testimony.

Villette asked, "Mr. Lorenzo, Miss Gemma's testimony just now said that the two of you knew that Mr. Cesar was going to frame you, and that you two conspired to get rid of Cesar in order to strike first. Is this true?"

When Lorenzo was asked by Villette, he suddenly raised his head as if he had been hit hard by a hammer. Compared with his hesitation just now, he answered directly at this time: "Yes, Lord Villette."

In order to make Gemma's testimony more truthful, Lorenzo brewed his emotions for a while, and finally squeezed out two drops of crystal tears from his dry eyes.

He showed a very painful expression and confided to everyone present: "As Miss Gemma said, if my teacher had not framed me for the crime of murder, I would not have taken this path of no return to murder my dear teacher."

"I never thought my teacher would do this... He has always been my teacher, I have always respected and admired him, and I hope that by continuing to learn, I can eventually take over his mantle and become a famous Fontaine magician. But..."

After getting Lorenzo's affirmative answer, Villette nodded helplessly. According to the procedure, the next step was to ask Cesar whether he could provide evidence.

Seeing Cesar's panic, Villette didn't think Cesar could provide evidence to refute the argument.

So Villette continued to ask Cesar in a businesslike manner: "Mr. Cesar, Miss Gemma identified you as the strange thief Marten who has been rampant in Fontaine for decades, and she also found several treasures that the strange thief Marten had stolen in your room."

"Mr. Cesar, we already have evidence and witnesses that can prove that you have an unbreakable connection with the strange thief Diao who has been rampant in Fontaine for decades. So what evidence will you produce to prove it?"

After hearing Wright's question, Cesar looked quite excited and at a loss. He didn't know what to say to Villette. He had no evidence at all to prove that he was not the Phantom Thief Marten.

In addition to the fact that the sudden cauldron affected Cesar's mood, more importantly, he was backstabbed by the two people closest to him, which made him unable to get out of his excitement for a while, and naturally he could not look at the problem calmly.

Cesar looked at Gemma, but Gemma seemed to avoid his gaze and didn't meet his eyes. Cesar could only feel disappointed and puzzled.

He looked at Lorenzo who was lowering his head. Lorenzo had not raised his head due to his guilty mood, so naturally he could not feel that Cesar was looking at him.

After all, the fake emotions and words he had just used had already made Lorenzo feel very stressed, so he naturally couldn't raise his head to look directly at Cesar's questioning gaze.

After being completely disappointed, Cesar stammered and couldn't say anything. He never thought that he would be framed as the Phantom Thief Diao, not to mention that the person who framed him was the one closest to him.

He was not prepared at all. After all, who could have thought that the two people closest to him would betray him for some unknown reason and stab a knife into Cesar's heart.

Cesar remained silent for a long time, which made Wu Cheng, who was watching the show on the side, give up his interest in watching the show. After all, if the situation continued to develop in this way, Cesar would be labeled as the Phantom Thief Diao.

As luck would have it, Gemma was also urging Villette to announce the results of the trial: "Lord Villette, since my husband, Mr. Cesar, has no objection to the testimony I provided, can we now announce the results of the trial?"

"After all, if my husband, Mr. Cesar, had not intended to kill me, and I had no martial arts skills to protect myself, why would I have taken the risk and taken the initiative?"

Just when the result of the trial was about to be overturned by Jia Ma, more variables suddenly appeared. That was Wu Cheng.
