People are in Conan, but Ace Attorney

Chapter 411 New Paralegal
—————May 28, 8:25 a.m.——————

—————Tokyo District Court, First Trial Court——————

This is not the first time that you in the Metropolitan Police Department have witnessed a secret trial conducted by the Public Security Bureau.

But this time it really feels different.

Because it was the first time they saw such an arrogant lawyer.

"…How did the samurai sword in this lawyer's hand pass the security check?"

"I don't know. Maybe they checked it out and found nothing wrong? I heard it was just the sound system."

Some people were discussing quietly in the back of the gallery.

However, the two bailiffs standing guard outside the door of the first trial court were completely unaware of this.

The reason why they let Xiang Yuanguang bring the Demon Hunting Sword into the Tribunal was very simple.

Since the two bailiffs at the door of the courtroom were brought in by Xiang Yuanguang.

That must have been confirmed by security check to be fine.

In this case, they don't need to confirm the situation of the Demon Hunting Knife again.

Moreover, as a famous lawyer, Xiang Yuanguang's reputation in this court is needless to say.

As a great magician who has mastered the magic of wind, there is no need for him to use a samurai sword to commit crimes!
(Hmm, Koshimizu and Hattori haven't arrived yet, it seems they were delayed.)
(Fortunately, I had a backup option for paralegal.)
The blue hedgehog sat with his back against a white food stall chair.

He sat with his back to the table at the defense table, eyes closed, with the controversial demon hunting knife at hand.

Except for the first few trials, he always had a legal assistant appearing in court to defend him.

This time it was no surprise, and the person serving as the lawyer's assistant was even more famous than the previous two detectives!
That’s right, as Xiang Yuanguang’s temporary legal assistant and the person responsible for defense assistance——————

It’s the famous detective Kogoro Mori!

"This is the first time I've ever stood at the defense table in a courtroom. This is truly the first time."

"I used to stand in the witness stand... But no matter where I stand..."

"I, the famous detective Maori Kogoro, will definitely be able to find the truth behind the case!"

Kogoro Mori was in high spirits at the lawyer's assistant seat.

He didn't notice at all that his daughter, Mao Lilan, had quietly turned her eyes into small ones.

She never imagined that her father would one day stand in a courtroom as a lawyer's assistant.

Could it be that Mr. Xiang Yuan has finally given up on the idea of ​​match-fixing and is leaving the game early?
It’s not that Mao Lilan doesn’t trust her father’s ability, but her father’s performance in the court...

He has absolutely no ability to fall asleep and make inferences as he would at the crime scene!

(But it’s also good this way, with Professor Agasa sitting in the first row, it’s convenient for me to hack into his account.)
(But it's a bit strange... where did Koshimizu Nanatsuki and Hattori Heiji go?)

(According to normal time, we should have arrived at the trial site by this time.)
The Shinigami elementary school student in the last row thought to himself.

Dr. Agasa was sitting in the first row with a calm look on his face.

He is ready to imitate Conan and quietly give Kogoro Mouri an injection with his own anesthetic needle.

As for the source of the sound when the account is hacked... don't worry about it at all.

Because when Mao Li wasn't paying attention, the sound generator had already been attached to his collar.

As long as Conan disguises himself as a bow in the last row, the voice changer connects the voice generator signal.

You can then replicate the [Sleeping Kogoro] that only appears at the crime scene in the courtroom!
(Prosecutor Kusakabe, I am waiting for you to enter the courtroom.)
(Huh, I didn't expect that you, who look so serious, would end up using the method of stepping on the spot?)
Xiang Yuanguang was leaning back on a chair at the food stall, thinking.

Just like the method he used before to deal with Prosecutor Sugiura, the "strongest prosecutor in Tokyo".

He also planned to use the same trick on Kusakabe Makoto. Although this trick has been used before, Kusakabe Prosecutor probably has less contact with the Criminal Department Prosecutors.

Otherwise, as a prosecutor in the Criminal Division, Gui Yueying would not have been unaware that the prosecutor in the Lower Division was going to fight this lawsuit.

In other words, it is very likely that Kusakabe Makoto does not know that he will play this trick in the court.

Therefore, it is highly likely that we can gain an advantage in momentum by taking the initiative...

"..."

The presiding judge of the first trial court stared at the chair at the defense table for a while.

The blond presiding judge still had no idea where Xiang Yuanguang pulled the chair out from.

From his perspective, Xiang Yuanguang entered the arena with the Demon Hunting Sword, came to the defense seat, and then sat down.

The white chair suddenly appeared behind Xiang Yuanguang, just right for him to sit on.

(This kind of thing is absolutely weird no matter how you think about it, why do people take it for granted?)

(Am I crazy, or are you crazy?)

The blond judge secretly complained, and for a moment he felt that this world was too crazy.

As for the samurai sword-like object placed next to the defense attorney's chair, he didn't care much about it.

Since the two groups of bailiffs at the main entrance of the courtroom and the entrance of the first courtroom let them in directly.

That means they must have gone through a security check to determine that there was no danger, otherwise how could anyone be allowed to enter the courtroom with a samurai sword?

(I heard that the samurai sword is actually a special speaker that automatically changes songs according to the situation.)
(I want to see how special this special sound system is and how it switches songs!)
And at this moment, in the prosecutor's office of the Ministry of Public Security.

Makoto Kusakabe was supposed to appear in court as the prosecutor in the diplomatic embassy murder case.

At this moment, he was standing in front of his boss's desk with a gloomy face, his anger was beyond words.

However, the woman who is Makoto Kusakabe's boss and the chief prosecutor does not care about Kusakabe's attitude.

She just spoke earnestly, as if she was thinking about your future.

"You don't need to be involved in this matter. After all, sending you there in the first place was just a cover."

"The United States has its own arrangements. You are just a public security prosecutor, so don't waste your energy on them."

... Damn it, I have prepared the information, completed the investigation, and contacted the lawyer.

The court session was scheduled for this morning, and you tell me this?

Kusakabe Makoto's expression changed for a while, but he finally lowered his head.

He hid his expression in the shadows and then bowed.

"I understand. I won't interfere in this matter anymore."

Tick, tick, tick.

Footsteps were heard in the corridor, followed by muffled chewing sounds.

Finally, the door of the first trial court was kicked open.

Everyone's eyes were on the person who came in.

"…Hey, everyone's here? Oh, I don't think we're late yet?"

The prosecutor who appeared in everyone's sight at this moment was the special adviser of the Silver Star Special Investigation Operations Team.

Dante Delevingne from the United States!
