The first trial ended just like that.
But even after it ended, everything that happened during today's trial was still being fiercely discussed by all the spectators present.
There was no other way; after all, today's trial was simply too exciting for them!
Both the defendant and the plaintiff were Sinners, and this time, the Hydro Archon was uncharacteristically reliable, presenting the entire case completely before all the spectators!
The level of excitement was no less than a play performed by the most top-tier theater troupes!
Near the fountain at the entrance of the Opera House, many spectators had not yet left; instead, they gathered there to discuss today's trial, as such an event was indeed rare and would be enough to serve as a topic of conversation even after returning home today.
Meanwhile, the Hydro Archon, whom they were discussing, was currently enjoying her lunch inside the Opera House.
During most of Furina's "work" days, her lunch would usually be eaten at the Opera House, as the majority of her day's schedule was spent there.
Today's schedule was already set: after the trial concluded in the morning, another trial would take place in the afternoon, followed by several performances.
In the room, only Furina and Liu Yuan remained.
Liu Yuan was looking at the program.
It listed the performances that would take place after the afternoon trial.
Magic Show: "Aerial Escape"
Performer: Lyney
—————
Musical: "She and He"
Performer: Initial Dew Theater Troupe
—————
...
...
...
There were many acts on the program, but whether they would ultimately be performed depended mainly on the length of the trial.
If it ended as quickly as it did in the morning, then most of the acts on the program might be seen.
Putting down the program, Liu Yuan's gaze turned to the side.
Furina on the side was leisurely enjoying her lunch.
Sitting on a high stool, her fair feet were bare; after all, inside the room, Furina would naturally be a bit more unrestrained. The afternoon trial wouldn't start until two o'clock, and the time before two o'clock was all hers.
And thinking back to her confident speech like a great detective during the morning trial, Furina couldn't help but feel excited.
Her bare feet unconsciously swayed on the high stool, her happy emotions unconcealed.
Liu Yuan put down the program in her hand, and Furina, who had been watching her out of the corner of her eye, finally spoke:
"Today's macarons are delicious! Let me feed you!"
She decided to reward Liu Yuan well!
Hmm... this was Detective Furina's reward to her assistant for successfully helping her solve a case!
Liu Yuan was slightly stunned, then lowered her head slightly, her body inching closer, and bit into the macaron Furina fed her.
Perhaps because Furina had "fed" her yesterday, Furina now seemed to have grown fond of the feeling of feeding her, which made Liu Yuan a little helpless, but also powerless to do anything about it.
The macaron was slowly eaten by Liu Yuan, a hint of sweetness appearing between her lips and teeth.
She seemed to understand a little why Furina liked to eat all sorts of sweets; they were indeed delicious.
"It's delicious," Liu Yuan commented.
"This is your reward! Thank you for letting me indulge my 'great detective' craving today, I'm really, super happy!"
Furina put her hands on her hips, then blinked. "Want more? I'll feed you~"
Her tone was slightly enticing; clearly, Furina was now inflated with pride and felt she had Liu Yuan completely under her thumb.
Her fingers pinched a macaron, then reached out to Liu Yuan.
Liu Yuan naturally didn't refuse, biting into the macaron again. This time the flavor was different; it was chocolate, and the different taste brought Liu Yuan a different feeling.
At the same time, Liu Yuan instinctively began to analyze the ingredients and preparation method of the macaron she was eating, comparing it with the knowledge she had learned.
The inexplicable immersion of her mind made her seem to see the entire process of the pastry chef making this macaron.
Perhaps... baking is quite interesting too?
Liu Yuan thought to herself, and at the same time, Furina's next macaron was offered.
Clearly, Furina was now irresistibly immersed in the joy of feeding Liu Yuan.
Soon, all the macarons on the plate were gone; Liu Yuan had gained insight into the making of all the macarons, and Furina had had her fill of feeding.
Clapping her hands, Furina was about to jump off the stool and then lie down on the sofa for a while, but before she could stand up, in the next moment, Liu Yuan's figure enveloped her.
Liu Yuan's deep blue eyes locked onto Furina, a faint smile playing on her lips — a smile Furina was exceptionally familiar with!
This girl... wants to do something bad! No... I have to run!
However, before Furina could move, Liu Yuan's face drew close again, her eyes like deep blue gems, which should have been without the slightest impurity, but now carried a hint of a smile — a smile that seemed to want to devour her completely.
Liu Yuan's emotions were still incomplete, but similarly, because they were incomplete, they were simple; because they were simple, they were pure.
"You... what do you want to do?"
Furina instinctively shrank back.
"The reward is only macarons?"
Liu Yuan said softly. Clearly, she wanted more than just a little macaron.
Thanks to Furina, the current Liu Yuan was incredibly greedy.
"I... I... only... only once, not more... Mm!"
The words she wanted to say were blocked; her heterochromatic eyes widened slightly, then gradually became hazy with the sensation from her lips, finally slowly closing her eyes.
Her body involuntarily softened, but was held by a strong hand.
After a long while, their lips parted, and her heterochromatic eyes opened again, a hazy look appearing in them, her cheeks flushed, emitting a charming blush.
She panted slightly, looking up, meeting those familiar deep blue eyes, and at this moment, those eyes were full of a smile.
"...You're bullying me again..."
Furina said weakly. For some reason, she now had almost no resistance to Liu Yuan; her body would soften at a touch.
And Liu Yuan, this girl, inexplicably seemed to have taken a liking to bullying her, which made it a bit difficult for her to maintain her usual demeanor.
"I just want a reward..."
Liu Yuan's voice was very low, with a hint of a smile. She was indeed a bit greedy. Although her rationality told her not to indulge too much in that feeling, it was like a cat encountering mint — completely unable to stop.
She was the cat, and Furina was her mint.
Furina pouted, a little unhappy, wanting to stand up and scold Liu Yuan as usual, but her body was still soft and weak, so the words she spoke were weak:
"The reward was me feeding you macarons! This... this was just an addition because I felt sorry for you! You... how could you..."
Blushing and speaking in a weak voice, Furina had no deterrent power whatsoever. Even if Furina spoke seriously, it would be the same lack of deterrent power for Liu Yuan, but her appearance was exceptionally adorable.
"Can't I?"
Her voice was languid. Liu Yuan seemed to have inexplicably learned some strange things. Hmm... it seems some people are born with certain things; even without intentionally learning them, they will gradually master them in life.
Furina was slightly stunned, her face reddening even more, her voice unconsciously growing weaker:
"Y-yes, but it has to be at night... when no one is around..."
"Not now?"
Liu Yuan moved closer, the distance that had separated them closing again. She now only thought that a blushing Furina was truly adorable, and she really wanted to...
"No... no... I... I'm not... Mm!"
Furina's words were blocked again, and this time the sensation from their lips was even more intense than the last.
