Chapter 799 Want to Investigate the Case



Chapter 799 Want to Investigate the Case

Su is a direct person, and coincidentally, so is Navia.

Navia directly stated her request to the Traveler Team, "Please let me join your investigation. I will definitely be a good partner."

Sora refused flatly. Now wasn't the time to play detective, and he didn't want to have to be wary of three strangers while still dealing with two of them.

Navia restrained her liveliness and looked at the group of travelers seriously, "I'm not kidding. We are all people who want to cut through the thorns and pursue the truth."

"The difference is that you don't want your friend to be wrongly accused, while I want to get to the bottom of the girl's disappearance."

Navia looked at the crowd nearby and said, "This is not the place to talk. Let's find a place to talk in detail."

Sora still refused, "Sorry, we're short on time..."

"Gurgle~" Paimon's stomach rumbled. She looked around awkwardly, pretending that her attention was attracted by the large vase not far away.

"You can't investigate a case on an empty stomach," Navia took off her gorgeous hat and handed it to the girl who had been staring at her. She then waved enthusiastically to Paimon, "Come on, let's go. You've been busy for so long, it's time to take a break. I'll treat everyone to dessert."

Seeing that Su and Paimon were both lured away by Navia, Kong pinched his brows and chose to follow helplessly.

A group of people arrived at the corner of the waiting hall, and Navia's men directly took out a portable cooking stove.

Paimon was very surprised, "Where did they get this from?" They are obviously ordinary humans without the Eye of God!

Su circled around the man in the black suit twice. "Does everyone in Fontaine know some magic? Or are you an elemental creature?"

Myles, a man in a black suit, said he was just an ordinary person. "I will prepare everything so that my daughter can enjoy her baking hobby at any time. As for storage, I can always find a way to do it."

Su Baisi was puzzled.

Although the portable cooking stove is detachable and foldable, it is so huge! How on earth did it fit into the black suit without being visible?

Is this something that can be accomplished simply by thinking of a way? Sure enough, there are experts among the common people!

On the other side, Silver, wearing black sunglasses, reached into his suit and pulled out a bunch of ingredients like he was pulling out a gun. "Eggs, sugar, almonds, I brought them all."

Navia took off her black lace gloves and took out the pots, pans, and apron. "Now it's my turn!"

Traveler Squad: ...

Su suddenly felt that these three people from the Thorn Rose Society had some magic and some nerves.

Navia held the cooking bowl in one hand and the egg whisk in the other, beating the egg whites quickly with the sound of "kwak, kwak".

"Navia looks so skilled." Su looked at Navia's fair arms and found her beautifully toned muscles.

Navia clenched her fists to make her biceps more visible. "I really like making desserts, and beating egg whites is good for exercising arm strength."

Navia invited: "Su, do you want to try it? The desserts you make yourself are the most delicious!"

Su Wan refused: "Decline."

Paimon flew over and advised Navia not to invite Su to participate.

"Su once offered to help Sora make more small cakes. But the cream he whipped from ten cups of milk wasn't even enough to cover one small cake."

Navia was surprised. "How could that be? Could it be that your small cakes are just called "small" cakes, but they are actually very large in size?"

Paimon crossed his hands and said, "Wrong guess!"

The truth was that when Su was stirring the cake, the cream flew everywhere. After the three of them shared the only small cake, they worked hard to clean the kitchen.

Su wiped the walls, Sora cleaned the floor, and she flew up to clean the ceiling.

Sora also showed a look of dismay as he glanced at the velvet sofa and the ornate dome nearby. "I'll definitely be fined."

"Hahaha, so there's such a 'background'." Navia looked very satisfied after listening to the little story and started to add sugar to the egg whites.

Su watched her open the sugar jar, scoop out a cup of sugar and sprinkle it into the egg whites. After beating it for a while, she scooped out another cup of sugar.

Su grabbed Navia's wrist and shook his head solemnly.

"What's wrong...? Oh—" Navia was stunned for a moment, then showed an expression of sudden enlightenment, "I see, I see, less sugar, then less sugar."

Navia put down the sugar jar with regret. "The sweeter the dessert, the better it tastes."

Su couldn't agree with Navia's opinion on desserts, "Desserts that are delicious but not too sweet are the best!"

Navia did not argue with Su who wanted to have a good relationship with her, and quickly made the reduced-sugar version of macarons.

"It's done," Navia placed the gorgeous dessert stand in front of the girl, "Pick what you like!"

The macarons made by Navia are round and plump, and different expressions are painted on the two-color surface with chocolate sauce, which is cute and a little weird.

"What a nice smell~" Paimon, who had been hungry for a long time, looked expectantly. "It smelled so good when it was roasting. It was so hard for me to resist!"

Each person had a cup of black tea with a rich floral aroma and a few sugar-reduced macarons, and the group sat down to have a good afternoon tea.

After the traveler team had eaten and drunk their fill, the atmosphere of communication became better, and Navia reiterated her request for cooperation.

Navia said, "Actually, I've wanted to get in touch with you for a long time. Your fame and strength have long been known to all major organizations."

However, the Linnie brothers and sisters made friends with the traveler group first, so she had to hold back her actions for the time being.

Navia said sincerely, "My focus is on the missing girl case because I want to restore my father's reputation."

Navia's father, Cares, is the former boss of the Thorn Rose Society and the person who was responsible for the construction of the waterway connecting the entire Fontaineland.

Sora suddenly remembered something. "Fontaine has three waterway routes: the Navia Line, the Carles Line, and the Clementine Line..."

Navia nodded. "Clementine is my mother's name. Dad used this way to commemorate our family."

Su and Paimon were a little touched, "How romantic..."

Despite his great contributions, Carres refused the honorary title offered by the Palace of Moment. He was once respected and loved by the people of Fontaine. But all this was lost when he was involved in a murder case.

Navia's father died in a duel in court, and she has always wanted to clear her father's name as "Unjust Kares".

"I don't believe my father would kill anyone. He has no motive and wouldn't do that." Navia said solemnly, "Besides, there are a lot of doubts in that case."

Sora reacted quickly, "It's very similar to this situation? Was the victim also a young girl?"

Navia shook her head. "The victim was an adult male who was shot dead. But there must be another person who disappeared without a trace, because no clues were found at the scene except for a set of clothes, and the case was eventually closed as missing."

Sora: "One of the two victims died, and the other vanished... It's indeed very similar to this case. Perhaps there really is a connection between the two cases."

Sue's eyes widened.

Did they suddenly transform someone alive? Or did they use some kind of potion that could dissolve the body without damaging clothing?

Sulfuric acid? Aqua regia?

The effect is not right!

Kong was also thinking about what potion could corrode the human body, and soon had the answer in his mind.
