Genshin Impact: The Glory of the Herrscher Shines on Teyvat

Chapter 27 The case of serial disappearance of girls

"I didn't expect Lady Funina to have a talent for detective work!"

Charlotte looked at Funina with admiration.

"Ahahahaha, the greatness and wisdom of the gods are naturally unimaginable to mortals."

Faced with Charlotte's praise, Funina chose to go with the flow and admitted it shamelessly. Alicia looked at the complacent Funina and did not expose her. After all, she was based on Funina, and the most important thing was to take advantage of her fame, so it was understandable to let her gain some face.

However, Alicia still pulled Fernina to her front and rubbed her face hard. Fernina did not dare to resist because she felt guilty, which made Charlotte on the side praise their good relationship.

"Since Lady Funina is good at solving crimes, I wonder if she has paid attention to the serial disappearance of young girls?"

Hearing this, Funina fell silent. She must have known about this case. The serial disappearance of young girls can be traced back to more than ten years ago. It is the most discussed and mysterious case in Fontaine and has not been solved yet.

After hearing Charlotte's words, Alicia suddenly remembered this matter. She knew very well the culprit behind the serial disappearances of young girls, and at this time, Navia's father Cares should not be dead yet. After all, she had not heard of any unjust Cares in the past two days. However, to be on the safe side, Alicia decided to ask first.

"Charlotte, have you ever heard of Mr. Careys?"

Although I didn't understand why Alicia asked about Cares, I still answered.

"Mr. Cares is a well-known person in Fontaine, the president of the Thorn Rose Society, who often helps people in need and is a very kind person. Ellie, you asked about Cares. Could the murderer be related to him? That's impossible."

After hearing what Charlotte said, Alicia confirmed that Cares was indeed still alive. When they were on Blue Star, Navia was a character she sympathized with very much, and she was also her best brother in Fontaine. Now she had to help her if she had the chance.

"Of course not. I just heard people discussing it outside recently so I was a little curious. As for the serial disappearance of girls, Fu Fu and I actually have a very important clue, okay?"

Hearing what Alicia said, Charlotte became excited, grabbed Alicia's arm and asked anxiously.

"Is this true? Are you, Lady Ellie and Lady Funina, going to investigate the serial disappearance of young girls yourself?"

Funina also looked at Alicia with some surprise, but out of trust, she did not say anything.

"Yes, with Fu Fu and I as our best partners, we are confident that we can bring the murderer to justice in the short term."

"Then Ellie, can I follow you in your investigation? I will never cause any trouble for you."

Charlotte grabbed Alicia's arm and begged earnestly.

Alicia was a little hesitant. After all, it was troublesome enough to take care of one Fernina, and it was not easy to protect two people with Charlotte. The serial disappearance of girls involved the water of the original fetal sea. The Fontaine people would be melted if they came into contact with it, which made it hard to guard against.

After much consideration, Alicia decided to take Charlotte with her. After all, there were some things that really required her, but she still had to make some rules with her.

"I can take you with me, but you need to promise something, okay?"

Hearing that Alicia agreed to take her with her, Charlotte nodded hurriedly.

"Ellie, as long as you are willing to take me with you, I will agree to anything you want."

"First, during the investigation, you must get my permission before eating or drinking anything. Second, you must stay within three meters of me. Third, you cannot touch anything without my permission. Charlotte, can you do this?"

Charlotte was a little surprised to hear such strict request from Alicia, and asked in confusion.

"Ellie, why is this happening? With you and Lady Funina here, is there anyone who can hurt me?"

After hearing what Charlotte said, Alicia began to explain it to her.

"Because the serial disappearance of young girls involves a very dangerous thing, that is the water of the original fetal sea. It can dissolve the Fontaine people who touch it into water. It is easy to dodge an open spear, but difficult to guard against an arrow from the dark. So, Charlotte, are you sure you want to join the investigation?"

“Is there really such a terrifying thing?”

Hearing what Alicia said, Charlotte was filled with disbelief. There was actually something in the world that could turn people into water. However, this could explain the missing girls, because they had all turned into water and naturally could not be found.

Thinking of this, Charlotte couldn't help but feel scared. Turning into water to die was too horrible. She couldn't imagine how desperate those missing girls would be when they saw her dissolving into water bit by bit. But when she thought of her profession, she was willing to have the opportunity to witness the capture of the murderer in the first place. She was unwilling to give up.

But out of trust in the abilities of Alicia and Funina, Charlotte still spoke bravely to Alicia.

"Ellie, I agree to your request. For a reporter, if the truth you want to explore is right in front of you and you don't dare to fight for it, it would be a failure. And don't underestimate me, I also have the eyes of God."

Alicia was not surprised by Charlotte's answer. She touched Charlotte's head and then spoke softly.

"Shall we discuss a battle plan?"

Funina on the side also squeezed over, and then Alicia began to tell the two of them about her plan...

After the three of them finished discussing, Charlotte took out her camera with satisfaction and introduced it to the two of them.

"This is my best partner and assistant, the one-of-a-kind photo machine, Mr. Wen Henting. Look at its hat and tie. I specially asked Miss Qianzhi to make them for me. They look really nice. I also made several sets of clothes in different styles for different occasions."

"At the end of the interview, I'll use it to take a beautiful cover photo of you, Ai Li."

When Charlotte decided to become a reporter, her father specially invited a friend who was good at mechanical technology and proficient in the modification of camera. Based on the original small camera, he made a lot of modifications, and the functions are extremely rich. I will not introduce them one by one here.

In short, Charlotte liked it very much and has been using it until now. Miss Chiori is even more famous. She was a designer of Inazuma and later came to Fontaine. Even Kirara's clothes were designed and made by her.

After hearing what Charlotte said, Alicia began to think about how to show her best side. After thinking about it, she decided to imitate the scene that she remembered most vividly.

Alicia turned her body sideways, let her long hair spread out, then gently lifted it up, turned her head with a smile and looked at Charlotte. With a "click", the picture froze on the camera.
