People are in Conan, but Ace Attorney

Chapter 154: Reversal of the Express, the Silver Star on the road to destruction (5)

—————May 3, 10:45 p.m.——————

—————Silver Star train, fourth carriage corridor——————

No matter what, Xiang Yuanguang felt that this train was too strange.

It gives people the feeling that things might explode at any time and anywhere, just like in the Conan movie.

As the saying goes, explosions and suspense are the romance of trains, in such a detective world.

It was hard for Xiang Yuanguang not to believe that something special would happen on such a famous train.

As for Suzuki Sonoko? She didn't say what she wanted to say in the end.

However, Suzuki Sonoko was not too depressed, but went to find the guitar musician who called himself MASTER Toya.

Although Xiang Yuanguang didn't know much about the musicians in this world, judging from the reactions of others, he should be a great musician.

"Tsk, it's Dongya's stage name. Why does it remind me of my cheap dad?"

"The original owner hasn't seen him for more than ten years. He might be dead somewhere now."

Xiang Yuanguang rubbed his forehead, muttering to himself, and then stopped.

Because, the two people who appeared in Xiang Yuanguang's sight were two old acquaintances—the presiding judge of the Tokyo Third Court and lawyer Kisaki Eri!

"Ah, isn't this Master Xiang Yuan? I heard that you are still known as the Dragon of Beika Town. I really miss you."

The presiding judge raised his hand in greeting, holding the gavel and corresponding hammering pad from the main seat of the courtroom.

It's really eye-catching. Could this guy have taken the props directly from the courtroom?... Is this considered embezzlement?
As if noticing the shift in Xiang Yuanguang's gaze, the presiding judge looked at the gavel in his hand and quickly began to explain.

"No, no, no, don't get me wrong. I didn't steal it from the Inquisition. I bought it myself."

"I feel uneasy without these things around me. It's very disturbing!"

Maybe you would feel uneasy if you don't bring these, but it would make me uneasy if you bring these.

Xiang Yuanguang's eyes became rude, and he felt that the presiding judge was partly responsible for this crisis.

But in the end, he shook his head and talked about the reason why he came to the fourth carriage.

"Mr. Judge, Attorney Fei, I heard from Uncle Maori earlier that you were all invited to the Silver Star by the owner of the Silver Star."

"Do you know who the owner of the Silver Star is? Habri Libnand should have been executed, right?"

Habri Libnand was executed?
The presiding judge and Kisaki Eri looked at each other in confusion, then Kisaki Eri shook her head and said with a sigh.

"Lawyer Xiang Yuan, you really need to review the legal provisions other than the criminal law."

"Before, Nakano Sosuke came back and reported to me that you seemed to be unfamiliar with other laws except the criminal law. I thought it was his illusion."

"After all, how could a top student from the Faculty of Law at the University of Tokyo only know the criminal law? But now it seems to be true."

Normally, a lawyer whose professional ability is questioned in this way should be angry or feel guilty, but Xiang Yuanguang did not have this idea.

He was an art student before he traveled through time, and he didn't study law at all, so it was normal that he didn't know.

The memories left to him by the original owner were patchy, and he had no knowledge of law at all, so he had to learn it on the spot.

In Xiang Yuanguang's opinion, the evaluation of Hibiki Eri was actually a compliment, at least he was recognized by the ace lawyer in terms of criminal law. The hedgehog-headed man put his hands on his waist, shook his head, and then spoke with confidence.

"I don't understand. Liebnand was sentenced to death a year ago. Shouldn't he have been executed long ago?"

Kisaki Eri replied helplessly.

"Libnand became a Japanese citizen several years ago, and his sentence must be extradited from the United States to Japan to be enforced."

"This matter was very difficult to handle. It was not until yesterday that there was a result. Today, he was extradited from the United States to Japan by plane."

"They are probably still passing the buck. It is still unknown whether the death penalty can be carried out."

"So what do you think? Is it possible that Liebnand escaped from prison and returned to the Silver Star to conduct a mock trial?"

Xiang Yuanguang touched his chin and thoughtfully proposed a possibility that no one else would even think of.

"Look, the presiding judge, the lawyers, and the prosecutors are all here now, aren't they?"

The presiding judge and Kisaki Eri finally couldn't hold back at the Hedgehog-head's crazy fantasy.

Finally, Xiang Yuanguang was left alone standing in the corridor of the fourth carriage, thinking alone.

He took two steps forward to the window at the end of the fourth carriage and looked at the endless railway behind him.

There was a sudden flash of surprise in his eyes.

This railway seems to be the one purchased by Libnand. What was it used for before it was converted into a route for the Silver Star?
Xiang Yuanguang thought of doing it immediately. He quickly returned to the empty third carriage, took out a magazine from his room and started reading it.

Sure enough, it was recorded that this railway was previously used for mineral transportation, and there was a forked road in the middle of the road.

If Liebnand wants to do something, he will most likely start from here.

(I'd better go to Conan to discuss the relevant matters, but I don't know how Conan will react.)
(Hmm... I need to get in touch with those two prosecutors. Even though I don't know them well, it won't hurt to get to know them a little better.)
Xiang Yuanguang snapped shut the magazine about railways, as he was becoming increasingly interested in finding out the truth about trains.

Then, as he stepped out, he saw a crew member from the Silver Star.

"It's already supper time. Were you walking around exploring?"

"But please be careful not to enter other passengers' rooms and infringe on their privacy. You are free to do whatever you want with the rest."

The flight attendant said with a smile.

"The owner of the house said that no passengers will be injured during this train trip, so you can rest assured."

A normal train conductor should say the train is running smoothly. Why would he say something like that?

He narrowed his eyes at Yuan Guang.

However, at this time, Gin had already installed the bombs on the ceilings of the third and fourth carriages and was returning.

However, the plan to evacuate the Silver Star train and detonate the bomb as soon as Libnand boarded the train was temporarily shelved.

Gin believes that there are still some variables on the train that must be determined.

After eliminating all those variables, it would be nice to blow up the train into the sky and watch the gorgeous fireworks.

(Humph, Liebnand, even if I let you live a little longer, you still can’t escape the fate of death in the end.)
The leader of the Black Organization raised his lips with a hint of confidence.

He never fails when he takes action!
