The crowd in the audience was also very surprised at this moment.
They had never seen such a song style and language before.
But, no kidding, this rhythm, this melody, it really felt pretty good.
After hearing the music, Neuvillette also closed his eyes and felt it.
After a while, Neuvillette opened his eyes and stated with a serious and earnest expression, "The style of this music is extremely unique. In my hundreds of years of experience, I have indeed never encountered it, but..."
At the end of his sentence, Neuvillette took a sharp turn.
"However, even so, it cannot prove that Xavier comes from another world."
Ms. Furina couldn't hold back any longer. With her hands on her hips, she said, "Neuvillette, you're such an idiot! The point isn't the music, it's the phone in my hand!"
It was then that everyone realized that the device Ms. Furina was playing music on seemed very magical.
Not only did it light up with a touch, but it could also play music.
Facing Ms. Furina's scolding, Neuvillette didn't care at all and continued to ask, "Then, Ms. Furina, what is the object in your hand?"
Ms. Furina proudly walked to the center with her phone.
"This thing is called a phone. Not only can it surf the internet, but it can also watch videos and listen to music."
"Of course, if we were on Blue Star, everyone could even make calls, video chat, and play games together, in short, it's very, very amazing!"
"Whoa!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the people below seemed to have opened the door to a new world.
They discussed animatedly, incredibly excited.
Even Neuvillette, who had lived for hundreds of years, couldn't help but feel a little skeptical at this moment that such a small object could have such functions.
"Ms. Furina, may I ask you to demonstrate other functions of this item?"
Ms. Furina didn't say a word and directly opened the phone's camera function.
She scanned the scene and then focused on Lyney and Lynette.
"Hmm~ You two are chosen!"
After speaking, Ms. Furina brought the phone over to the two of them.
"Ms. Furina, have you come up with something new again? It won't cause us any DMG, will it?"
Lyney seemed a little afraid of Ms. Furina.
With so many people here, why choose me? It feels like I'm a guinea pig for an experiment.
"Oh, how could that be? I, Ms. Furina, am a big shot in Fontaine, after all."
Ms. Furina reassured them, then flipped the camera around.
Click!
As the shutter clicked, the photo was captured.
Ms. Furina in the photo looked very natural, while Lyney was slightly curious.
As for Lynette behind him, she looked at the camera expressionlessly, as if observing.
"Alright, this is my evidence!"
After taking the photo, Ms. Furina handed the phone to the staff responsible for collecting evidence.
The staff handed the phone to Neuvillette, and everyone watched Neuvillette's reaction and actions.
Neuvillette looked at the photo on the phone, then fell into deep thought.
Based on his experience and knowledge, no Kamera seemed capable of achieving such an effect.
The photo could be seen immediately after shooting and was stored within the small phone.
After a moment of silence, Neuvillette struck his gavel and announced, "After certification by witness Ms. Furina, I preliminarily conclude that Xavier indeed comes from outside Teyvat!"
After saying that, Neuvillette waved his hand, and under the cover of abundant water element power,
the photo on the phone appeared in the very center of the opera house.
"Whoa!"
Everyone looked up, displaying expressions of surprise.
"Oh my goodness, was this really taken by that small thing?"
"This is much more convenient than a Kamera, and it looks very clear!"
"Ms. Furina, I am willing to pay 20 million Mora to buy the item in your hand called a phone!"
A man dressed as a merchant suddenly shouted that he wanted to buy the phone.
This young man truly had business acumen. After he shouted, others also reacted and followed suit, wanting to buy it.
"I want to buy it too! I'll offer 50 million Mora!"
"Damn it, for such a precious item, I'm willing to pay 100 million Mora! No one is allowed to snatch it from me..."
The internal competition started here. Everyone wanted this treasure, but everyone knew very well that it was unlikely to buy such a valuable treasure easily.
They could only increase the price to give themselves some confidence.
"Hey, hey, I never said I would sell it! Besides, Xavier gave this to me, I wouldn't sell it!"
Ms. Furina was not short of Mora to begin with. Moreover, how could a friend's heartfelt gift be sold so easily?
And more importantly!
It contained her browsing history. If they found anything strange, she could permanently move from Fontaine to Blue Star to live.
Although, there was no internet on Teyvat.
"Silence!"
Seeing the entire trial scene descend into chaos, Neuvillette tapped his small gavel.
Everyone gradually quieted down.
"This item called a phone not only possesses functions we have never seen before, but the text displayed on it also does not belong to any civilization in Teyvat."
"Furthermore, through details such as Xavier's attire and demeanor, it can also be seen that the probability of Xavier coming from another world is extremely high."
"Therefore, if Xavier comes from another world, the possibility of him having robbed Mr. Klinger, the plaintiff, will be greatly reduced."
Neuvillette's words were orderly and logical.
After all, who would come to another world just to steal a few books and collude with a group of Treasure Hoarders? It's clearly unrealistic.
And Klinger, upon hearing what Neuvillette said, immediately panicked.
He shouted loudly, "No! This must be his lie! Everything said so far is just speculation, there's no way to prove it!"
Xavier was agitated. This guy's words were too unpleasant.
He cursed and retorted, "If you insist on proof, I have ways, and ways that will completely shut you up!"
"Really, Mr. Xavier? Can you tell us what kind of method it is?"
Navia was a little impatient and shouted loudly at Xavier, disregarding the setting.
Navia's personality was already quite unconventional, so of course, she wouldn't care about these small details.
"That is..."
Xavier paused, then said loudly, "Invite a few people to Blue Star, and use a phone or Kamera to take photos for evidence. Wouldn't that be complete ironclad proof?"
After these words were spoken, the people in the audience could no longer sit still and stood up one after another.
"Mr. Xavier, please be sure to invite me to Blue Star! I want to buy a phone!"
"I want to go too! I'm willing to pay 200 million Mora for a spot!"
"I'm willing to pay 800 million..."
At this moment, the Opera Epiclese had turned into an auction house.
