People are in Conan, but Ace Attorney

Chapter 504 The witness is Kogoro Mori!

Kogoro Mouri's words immediately made the members of the Junior Detective League react.

Yes, Yazaki Yasuji was not the same as Conan said. He only left the classroom briefly once from the time he entered the class to the lunch break. He clearly went to the cafeteria to eat during the lunch break!

Genta Kojima immediately spoke loudly to express his thoughts.

"Conan, you're wrong! Yazaki-san clearly went to the cafeteria to eat during lunch break! It doesn't look like what you said, he just left for a short time to go to the bathroom!"

"That's right, Huibara-san is obviously innocent!"

Ayumi Yoshida also echoed Genta's words, and after hearing what Kogoro Mori said, Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya thought of the scene where Conan seemed to be looking at Haibara Ai's schoolbag intentionally, and he suddenly had an idea.

As a companion of the Junior Detective League, although Mitsuhiko did not know that Conan was acting to increase the drama of this class trial, Mitsuhiko believed that it was impossible for Conan to really think that Haibara Ai was the thief.

Therefore, Conan’s words just now should be a reminder to the Junior Detective Team!
Although there was no reason, Mitsuhiko firmly believed in the bond between the Junior Detective Team and directly took this seemingly unreliable conclusion as what he thought was the correct answer.

Therefore, Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya raised his hand and said without hesitation.

"Teacher, the defense demands to present evidence——————[Graybara Ai's schoolbag]!"

His request immediately made Teacher Kobayashi stunned. After a while, Teacher Kobayashi asked in confusion.

"What use is there, then, in bringing up this evidence now?"

Mitsuhiko slammed the table and said loudly in affirmation.

"This piece of evidence can prove that the lunches of Huiyuan and Xiangyuan were actually prepared in advance, and they did leave the classroom during the lunch break to eat the lunch boxes they brought."

"From this, we can conclude that if Yazaki-san did not leave the classroom during lunch break, then his school bag should contain an empty lunch box like Huibara-san, otherwise it would contradict his statement."

"If the evidence provided by Yazaki-san contradicts his previous testimony, then we can assume that Uncle Maori's testimony is correct, and Yazaki-san did leave the classroom during lunch break to eat in the cafeteria!"

Conan, sitting in the prosecutor's seat, pushed his glasses and asked.

"Let's not talk about what's in Yazaki's bag, but lunch boxes are also disposable, right? If Yazaki put the lunch box in the trash after using it, it's normal that it can't be found."

"That's not the case! There's no lunch box in the trash can!"

At this time, Yuantai interrupted Conan and said righteously.

"Besides, the uncle in the cafeteria said that he saw Yazaki-san in the cafeteria, so he must have gone to the cafeteria to eat!"

The situation seemed a little stiff at this point. Mr. Kobayashi, who was standing on the podium, hesitated for a moment, then looked at Yasushi Yazaki, who was standing in the plaintiff's seat, and asked for his opinion.

"So, Yazaki-san, are you willing to produce your school bag as evidence?"

Hearing this question, Yazaki Yasushi seemed a little hesitant, but one of the other students in the classroom who was in the audience said loudly at this time, "I remember that Yazaki's schoolbag contained extracurricular books! Because the teacher's lecture in the morning was too boring, I borrowed an extracurricular book from Yazaki, and that's when I saw it!"

Teacher Kobayashi's face suddenly turned dark. Although she was a bit rigid in order to maintain her serious image as a class teacher, it shouldn't be to the point where the parent-teacher meeting would be boring, right?

The student who was talking was hiding among the other students. Although Kobayashi Sumiko had an urge to find this student, she finally chose to swallow her anger and not bother with the elementary school student for the time being.

However, the student's words completely opened up Yazaki Seiji's heart. This student, who usually seemed a little withdrawn, showed an expression that the Junior Detective Team had never seen before.

Yazaki Yasuji opened his schoolbag with an embarrassed smile and showed the contents to his homeroom teacher. There was indeed no lunch box inside, but rather several extracurricular books.

Evidence storage————[Yazaki Yasushi's school bag].

There was no lunch box or textbook inside, only a few extracurricular books that looked interesting. This was probably one of the reasons why Yazaki Yasuji usually kept to himself and often stayed in a corner by himself.

"Hey, this book looks interesting... Yazaki-san, can I take a look after the rehearsal?"

Ayumi Yoshida stared at the cover of one of the books and said embarrassedly.

Yazaki Yasuji's face just blushed slightly, then he lowered his head shyly, but did not refuse.

"Teacher, since there was no lunch box in the plaintiff's schoolbag and no disposable lunch box in the trash can, the defense believes that Yazaki Yasuji did not eat his lunch box in the classroom during lunch break, but went to the cafeteria to eat!"

Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya spoke loudly at this time, and even Conan remained silent at this time - although all this was within his expectations, it was the situation he led.

Teacher Kobayashi nodded, agreeing with Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya's suggestion, and then spoke.

"I heard that Mr. Maori went to the cafeteria to investigate with the students on the defense side. So, can Mr. Maori be invited as a witness in this case to explain the results of the investigation in the cafeteria?"

Uncle Maori felt a little troubled. He just jumped out because he was simply annoyed that the Junior Detective League was going around in circles. He originally wanted to sneak back, but now it seems that it is impossible.

He looked down at the table in front of him with the words "Witness Stand" on it. Thinking of the times he had spoken in the witness stand in the courtroom, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart——————

As expected, detectives are attracted to cases. Even if it is just a class refereeing as a joke between students, a famous detective like him will be attracted to the witness stand to make inferences.

Thinking of this, Kogoro Maori couldn't help but run his hand through his hair. Then, he raised his head confidently, facing the admiring (or what he thought was admiring) eyes of everyone, and spoke loudly.

"Well, since things have developed to this point, then as Tokyo's super detective, I have no choice but to help the Junior Detective Team solve this big problem!"

Uncle Maori said loudly.

"The witness is Kogoro Mori! Come in!"
