People are in Conan, but Ace Attorney

Chapter 62 Intertwined, then reversed (13)

At this point, the situation has completely reversed.

Hirata Kazuaki's defense was broken, and the case was about to be solved, which led to the SL3 incident twelve years ago.

As a result, the situation was completely reversed in an instant at the hands of the intruding prosecutor Gui Yue Liu Yun.

The testimony that could have proved Asai Narimi's innocence was overturned...

This serious situation made even Detective Conan fall into deep thought.

(How can this be reversed? If it is a crime scene, it can be easily solved.)
(But this is a courtroom, not a detective's stage, and reasoning is not valid without evidence...)
(In this case, even if I bring out the account book that Hirata Kazuaki hid, it would be considered perjury...?)

(Kuizuki Liuyun's ability may not be as strong as Kuma Sukawa's, but he can do whatever it takes to win!)

The Sherlock Holmes of the Heisei era is now somewhat helpless.

"The murderer in this case, Asai Narimi, actually had a legitimate reason for wanting to kill Murasawa Shuichi."

"Everyone, please take a look. In your eyes, Asai Narimi... is he a man or a woman?"

Guiyue Liuyun pointed at Asai Narimi without any hesitation.

The answer to this question does not even require any thought.

The presiding judge answered directly.

"Of course Asai Narimi is a girl. There is no need to ask such obvious questions."

"Oh? Is that so?"

An unfathomable smile appeared on Lao Deng's face.

He opened the file bag he brought with him, pulled out the identity information inside, and held it up.

"Please look, Asai Narimi... doesn't exist at all!"

"His real name is Asanari Minoru! He sneaked into Moon Shadow Island disguised as a female doctor just to kill people!"

There was an uproar.

Xiang Yuanguang frowned, this old Deng was right by accident.

Even Ma Chengshi, who was sitting in the defendant's seat, opened his mouth to speak but was unable to give a reasonable explanation.

Even if it is said to be a cross-dressing fetish...how do you explain the change of name?
"Aso Minoru...? Aso?"

The presiding judge murmured the name and suddenly realized something was wrong.

"And the person who left the cursed piano at the community center mentioned by the witness Hirata Tomaki just now..."

pat.

Guiyue Liuyun snapped his fingers and pointed at Ma Chengshi in the dock.

"The person who left the cursed piano behind is Aso Keiji, Aso's father, who killed his wife and daughter and set himself on fire!"

"Managi Shigemi is the only son of the madman who killed his wife and daughter and then set himself on fire!"

The whole audience was in uproar again.

Even the presiding judge was shocked and he looked at Xiang Yuanguang.

"Lawyer Xiang Yuan, the connection you were talking about before was that Asai Narimi was the son of Aso Keiji?"

The corner of Xiang Yuanguang's mouth twitched. He had no way to deny it and nodded.

"Yes, but what I want to say is——"

"Shut up! I haven't finished what I'm saying yet!"

Guiyue Liuyun interrupted Xiang Yuanguang without hesitation and slammed his hand on the table again.

"There were four witnesses who saw Keiji Aso kill and set himself on fire."

"They are the former village chief and Kameyama Isamu, who died of illness in prison after meeting Asai Narimi."

"The current village chief, Kuroiwa Tatsuji, the entrepreneur Kawashima Hideo, and Nishimoto Ken."

"And the victim, Murasawa Shuichi... was the fiancé of Kuroiwa Tatsuji's daughter, Kuroiwa Reiko."

"Then, I don't need to elaborate on Asanari's motive for murder, right?"

"I know very well that the madman's bloodline has revived in the body of this seemingly elegant demon!"

The prosecutor folded his hands on his elbows and looked at Xiang Yuanguang complacently, as if he was admiring Xiang Yuanguang's powerless appearance.

The presiding judge frowned. Yes, he also figured it out.

"So, did Asanari return to Moon Shadow Island in order to kill the four witnesses?"

"And the target is not just the four witnesses, but also the relatives of the witnesses, are within the scope of revenge?" "This crime is unforgivable! Masanobu Shi, this court will sentence you guilty!"

The situation seems to be sliding into an abyss from which there is no return.

Ma Cheng in the dock sighed, he knew that his presumptuous actions had once again implicated lawyer Xiang Yuanguang.

The same thing happened three years ago. If he hadn't checked his father's belongings, he would have played the piano according to the music score without permission.

There would be no legend of the cursed piano on Moon Shadow Island, and Xiang Yuanguang would not be hit with a club because of his distraction.

In the end...it all comes down to his own problem.

"...Lawyer Xiang Yuan, that's enough."

"I can't let you down any further."

Ma Cheng Shi stood up and glanced frankly at the faces of those people.

Gui Yue Liu Yun, Kuroiwa Tatsuji, Hirata Heming...

He will never forget any of these people.

At the testimony stand, Nanatsuki Koshimizu's sunglasses had slipped off at some point, and she was thinking quickly.

However, there was too little evidence to piece together a chain.

Xiang Yuanguang stared at the table at the defense table. He quickly looked through the various evidence records and files he had brought with him.

(Takeo Nishida’s testimony is not applicable here… nor is Hirata Kazuaki’s account book…)
(Then, what about the radio? No... Asai Narimi also left a radio at the scene...)
(Did I overlook something? Did I… did I miscalculate something?)
Xiang Yuanguang subconsciously covered his head, and the phantom pain came again.

On the morning of April 16, he looked through the files in the archives, went to Yueying Island in the afternoon, looked through the files all night, went to the court on the morning of the 17th, took a boat to Yueying Island in the afternoon to look for evidence, and returned to Tokyo in the early morning of the 18th...

He slept less than six hours in three days, and the side effects of this overload finally came flooding back the moment he was frustrated in the trial.

"Xiang Yuan...Xiang Yuan? Are you okay?"

Conan saw that Xiang Yuanguang's body was shaking. This guy had hardly slept for two days and two nights, relying entirely on coffee to stay awake. It turned out that there were side effects. Even the best body could not withstand this.

dong dong.

The judge struck with the gavel.

"Then, this court declares that Asai Narimi has——"

"A pound of pear!"

Xiang Yuanguang's voice sounded!

Everyone's attention was instantly focused on Xiang Yuanguang.

Even Guiyue Liuyun looked at the trembling novice lawyer with interest, wondering what else he could say.

In fact, Conan used a voice changer to shout this sentence to Genkou.

As a friend, Conan knew very well what Xiang Yuanguang would do at this time.

"I object to this..."

"Because...because..."

Xiang Yuanguang raised his head. After all, none of his attributes were outstanding. The reason he was able to achieve such an overwhelming effect in the courtroom was entirely because of his extremely sufficient preparations before the case. But now... things were out of control.

"It seems that the defense lawyer has nothing more to say! Make a verdict, your Honor!"

Guiyue Liuyun sneered and said as if it was a matter of course.

However, at this moment, the wind——

get up.

"A pound of pear!"

A strong wind swept through the courtroom, forcibly stopping the judge from bringing down the gavel.

This objection was shouted to Minamoto no Mitsu, but it was not shouted to Minamoto no Mitsu, and it was not shouted by Conan.

Instead, it was a person standing next to Xiang Yuanguang, whom only Xiang Yuanguang could see, who shouted on Xiang Yuanguang's behalf.

He was wearing red clothes and a white scarf around his collar.

"What? Are you giving up? At this time?"

The illusory figure spread his hands, shook his head and said seriously.

"You can defeat Guiyue Liuyun. You have the decisive evidence in your hand!"

　What is the "decisive evidence" that Miles Edgeworth mentioned? Can you guess? How about it? As a reminder, this evidence has appeared in the previous article, but it was not included in the court record and was ignored by both the defense and the prosecution.
