Traveler did not feel excited by Yuto's agreement; on the contrary, she was still somewhat wary of him.
After all, he was the Assistant Administrator, a person close to Furina, and under the current circumstances, she found it difficult to trust whether what the person in front of her said was true or false.
Looking at Traveler's somewhat wary gaze, Yuto gently shook his head, then softly said:
"Traveler, there's no need to be so wary. As the Deputy Administrator of Fontaine, I am absolutely neutral in such matters."
"Including tomorrow's Judgment, all I need to do is record the trial process and reflect afterward, further improving Fontaine's legal system."
"If the two Misses don't believe me... feel free."
As Yuto spoke, he pointed a finger towards the office door not far away, as if saying, "If you don't believe me, you can leave at any time."
Hearing Yuto's words, Navia and Traveler exchanged glances, then nodded in unison. Finally, Traveler began to recount their various discoveries in the underground passage.
After hearing these words, Traveler continued, "The only problem now is... where did the young woman named Heirsee go?"
"Assistant Officer, do you... have any clues about this?"
Yuto fell silent at this, and after a long while, he softly spoke:
"Firstly, since Heirsee's body did not appear on the stage surface, it proves that... her 'death' should have occurred in the underground passage."
"Of course, this process does not rule out Lyney and others specifically finding various means to quietly transport her body out, creating the scene of a young woman's disappearance."
"However... Miss Heirsee is, after all, a young woman. No matter what method was used, it would be impossible to transport her out of the Opera House without being noticed at all."
"That's why I said Heirsee's death occurred in the underground passage."
"But there were no bodies in the underground passage; we and the security team checked!" Paimon said somewhat anxiously.
Yuto nodded noncommittally.
"So the question now is where Heirsee's 'body' went..."
After saying this, Yuto fell into deep thought, then "casually" looked at a report document related to The Prophecy that was still spread out on the table.
"Perhaps this sounds a bit... crazy, but I still want to ask the two of you a question..."
"Do the two of you believe that prophecy?"
Traveler blinked at this, seemingly a bit incredulous.
In her mind, it seemed impossible for someone like Yuto, who was primarily rational, to believe such a seemingly erratic prophecy.
And on the way here, Navia had also told her about her understanding of Yuto, which is why... she was so surprised now.
Seemingly sensing the confusion of the people in front of him, Yuto gently shook his head, then said:
"My attitude towards The Prophecy is neutral. If the documents and opinions I receive support The Prophecy, then I must continue to answer questions from that perspective, and vice versa."
"Please allow me to ask presumptuously, in the basement... were there any water stains?"
Hearing this, Traveler and Navia fell into recollection, and after a while, both nodded in unison.
"By the box where the clothes were kept, there were water stains!" Paimon exclaimed as if startled.
Yuto nodded gently at this, then turned his gaze to the document in front of him, softly murmuring:
"Assuming such a water truly exists, one that can dissolve people from Fontaine, then everything... would make sense."
"But—"
Hearing Yuto's words, Paimon seemed to suddenly think of something and was about to retort but was interrupted by Yuto's words again.
"'But if that's the case, wouldn't it just prove that Lyney has a problem,' right?"
Yuto gently shook his head at this and continued:
"From a neutral perspective, Furina accused Lyney of being the culprit in the Serial Disappearance of Young Girls, so... what was Lyney's motive for the crime?"
"Leaving aside the motive, just considering Lyney's current state, if he were truly the culprit in the Serial Disappearance of Young Girls... Cowell should be his accomplice."
"And Cowell died in this magic accident. Lyney's purpose was to silence him, but since he possesses something that can dissolve people from Fontaine..."
"Why would he let the body appear on the surface?"
After saying this, everyone present fell into deep thought, and Yuto then said:
"Everyone, these are all the clues and conjectures I can provide for now. If there's nothing else... I need to continue with my work."
Hearing this, a look of surprise flashed in Navia's azure eyes, as if she had realized something, and then she hurriedly pulled Traveler away.
Looking at the retreating figures of the two young women, Yuto couldn't help but shake his head.
"I've provided all the information I can. Now... let's see what kind of corrections this plot will undergo because of my words..."
...
Meanwhile, in the present world.
Nonomi bit her fingernails, looking at the subtitles displayed on the screen in front of her, then said:
"It seems... Yuto knows a lot of things we don't..."
"He definitely believes The Prophecy, that's for sure."
"But... as Furina's Assistant Administrator, why would he choose to help us? Could it be because Furina is docking his salary?"
Thinking of this, Nonomi quickly shook her head, hastily expelling that somewhat absurd thought from her mind, then looked at the scrolling bullet comments beside her.
After watching for a while... her mouth began to twitch.
"You guys are really... the point isn't there! The point isn't whether Yuto is handsome or not!"
Yes, during the previous conversation, for some reason, the camera gave Yuto a full-body close-up. It could be said that every part of Yuto's body was thoroughly scrutinized.
Long and straight legs, a broad chest and sharp shoulders, a gentle and serene smile always on his face, and of course, those slender fingers.
The recent shot practically satisfied everyone's desires, so... Nonomi's live stream was completely boiling.
"Hehe... hehehe... I really want to strip Yuto's clothes off to see how many abs he has inside... hehehe..."
"Maya Big Sis, you..."
"That's enough, rein it in."
"But you have to admit! Yuto is very handsome! Whether what he says is right or wrong doesn't matter, what matters is that today's cinematographer can eat on the table!"
