Furina's words made Kurtley's expression stiffen, and then, the next moment, hydro spheres slowly appeared above the Opera House stage.
The hydro spheres seemed to be controlled by Furina, gradually changing in the air, forming small characters.
"Actually, this case is very simple, it's just that many people didn't notice it."
"The poison Ms. Linette Nina used to kill the poor President was a special alchemical poison. It wouldn't take effect immediately after being ingested, but would be absorbed, and after absorption, it would slowly circulate throughout the entire body."
"Only after accumulating to a certain extent would it begin to erupt. The poisoned person would feel their entire body slowly melt."
"There would be an interval of about ten minutes between ingesting this poison and it taking effect."
"And the poison Mr. Kurtley used to kill the poor President was much more advanced. It was a latent, special alchemical poison, colorless, odorless, undetectable, and would even delay its onset by about two to three days."
"This was enough time for Kurtley to completely eliminate all evidence and leave behind evidence favorable to himself."
"However, a problem arose."
Furina swiped her finger, and the water spheres in the air slowly changed, forming two ingredient lists.
"The one on the left belongs to the alchemical poison prepared by Ms. Linette Nina, which can make a person die in agony."
"The one on the right belongs to the alchemical poison prepared by Mr. Kurtley, which can make a person die suddenly and unknowingly."
"However, our poor Mr. President ingested both of them."
The blue writing in front of them changed again, and the two ingredient lists gradually merged into a new one.
"The fusion of different poisons would only cause both poisons to change together, and then, a new poison appeared — and it was this poison that killed the poor Mr. President."
"So… the real culprits are both of you!"
Furina chuckled softly, casually confirming the guilt of the two.
Below the stands, Ms. Linette Nina and Deputy President Kurtley's faces were pale. They had thought that the other's poison had killed the President, so even if it was discovered that she/he had also administered poison, she/he would not be convicted.
However, the real cause of death was actually due to their two poisons acting together!
"Evidence!"
Linette Nina said, unwilling to concede. Currently, all the words were spoken by Furina alone, without any concrete evidence, which gave her a glimmer of hope.
"Evidence? It's very simple, just test it. The reason why the Gardes couldn't analyze the components of the poison in the poor President's body was because it was a mixed poison."
"Just go and check if there was poison on the tableware the poor President used that day, and check the poison in the fish."
Furina said softly. Evidence was just a matter of time.
Linette Nina's face turned ashen, and the slight hope that Deputy President Kurtley had held also vanished.
Whispers rose and fell again. This trial was too exciting! After all, this seemed to be the first time their Hydro Archon had accurately deduced the entire case!
And looking at the expressions of those two, they knew that the Hydro Archon was telling the truth!
"It was really worth coming today!"
"Exactly, exactly, I didn't expect this trial to be so exciting! Why didn't I feel Lady Furina was so amazing before! This reasoning ability and insight are too powerful!"
"Lady Furina feels like a detective!"
--
In the stands, the spotlight on Furina had turned off, and she sat back in her seat.
Her face still held an irrepressible excited smile, though it was a little flushed.
"How do you feel?"
Liu Yuan's voice sounded.
"It's really… super, super, super interesting!"
Furina's face was still excited. She had never experienced the feeling of deducing the entire case like this!
Although she was unwilling to admit it, she was indeed not very good at intelligence, and all the words she had just spoken were first said by Liu Yuan, and then she repeated them.
During each pause, she had to pretend to be thinking, but her acting was very good and she didn't show any flaws.
Listening to the audience's praises below, Furina felt a little inflated, but also a little guilty — after all, it was Liu Yuan who truly understood the entire case; she was just relaying it.
But then she thought, wasn't Liu Yuan hers? What did she have to feel guilty about! Liu Yuan herself was hers, wasn't she!
Thinking of her posture just now, like the detective in the novel she read last night, Furina couldn't help but let her mind wander.
Super Detective Furina and her indispensable, capable assistant Liu Yuan!
Hehehe… it sounds super compatible!
Looking at Furina, who was lowering her head and covering her face, giggling foolishly, Liu Yuan felt a little helpless. Why was Furina always giggling foolishly lately…
Her deep blue eyes looked down; she glanced at Neuvillette, then at the Oratrice Mecanique D'analyse Cardinale. After a long time, she withdrew her gaze.
The trial was now nearing its end. Thanks to Furina's deduction, the entire case had been presented in its complete process.
Linette Nina and Kurtley both admitted their guilt, because they knew there was no longer any evidence to prove their innocence.
Regretful tears flowed — whether from guilt or fear.
In the seat of the judge, Neuvillette stood up, his staff tapping lightly on the ground, and the Opera House was silent once more.
Under the gaze of all the spectators, he slowly opened his mouth, declaring the guilt of the two individuals before him.
"I declare Ms. Linette Nina, and Mr. Kurtley, guilty!"
His voice was authoritative and beyond question.
Below, azure energy surged in the machine, and the giant scales gradually changed, eventually stabilizing.
The energy gathered little by little, finally condensing and leading to an unknown place, and then another piece of information emerged, forming a slip of paper that appeared from the exit in front of Neuvillette.
Neuvillette reached out and took the slip of paper, looked at the text on it, and then said:
"According to the judgment results given by the Oratrice Mecanique D'analyse Cardinale, Ms. Linette Nina and Mr. Kurtley, are guilty!"
