People are in Conan, but Ace Attorney

Chapter 78 Intertwined, then reversed (26)

"Nishi, Nishimoto Ken, what nonsense are you talking about!! How can this kind of testimony count? There is clearly no evidence!"

Kuroiwa Tatsuji was in a state of panic, but at this moment, his testimony was no longer credible and no one would believe him anymore.

Standing at the prosecutor's seat, prosecutor Reiko Kujo nodded, although there was still no substantial evidence to prove that Tatsuji Kuroiwa and Tomori Hirata were involved in heroin trafficking.

But the evidence we have obtained so far is only enough to prove a possibility.

"Because of the testimonies of witnesses Takeo Nishida and Ken Nishimoto, the prosecution believes that Tatsuji Kuroiwa, Ken Nishimoto, Tomori Hirata, and Hideo Kawashima..."

"Wait a minute! What can just empty testimony prove? Do you have any evidence?"

The door of the grand courtroom was pushed open with a bang, and the last eyewitness of the SL3 incident, Hideo Kawashima, walked into the grand courtroom.

He stood at the witness stand, looked at Kuroiwa Tatsuji next to him, snorted coldly, and then spoke.

"That Ghost Moon prosecutor is totally unreliable. This morning he lied that he was injured and in danger of his life, and was urgently transferred back to his original local prosecutor's office."

"I have to do it myself when it matters most!"

During these three days, Hideo Kawashima did not sit idly by. He disposed of all the heroin-related evidence.

That is to say, even if the police conduct a carpet search on Moon Shadow Island now, they will find nothing, and expanding the scope will take more than a day!
"This is the last day of a three-day trial! You have no direct evidence that heroin trafficking is still going on!"

"Even if we conduct a blanket search of Moon Shadow Island now, we won't be able to catch up with the final deadline for the trial!"

Kawashima Hideo said confidently.

"Well, prosecutor and lawyer, do you have any opinions on this?"

view……?
Xiang Yuanguang's face looked a little ugly. He still underestimated the methods of these criminals. No wonder he didn't find any heroin on Yueying Island.

It turns out that Kawashima Hideo, who has been late to appear, has taken care of everything... So what should we do now? There is not enough time!
(How could this be…isn’t my evidence sufficient?)

Xiang Yuanguang's brain was thinking quickly.

"Calm down, Lawyer Xiang Yuan, do you remember the case you discussed with me before? The final piece of the puzzle has been completed."

"Next, you just need to be patient and wait... the results will appear."

Kisaki Eri, who was standing at the defense seat on the other side, spoke. The last piece of the puzzle she was referring to was naturally Arita Ryosuke.

Xiang Yuanguang didn't say anything, he was just thinking, what if it was Naruhodō Ryuichi or Mikuro no Ken Reiji who were here.

What will these two legendary legal figures choose to do in the face of the current situation?
"Hey, Mr. Judge, the situation is clear now, right? Make a quick judgment."

Hideo Kawashima looked at the presiding judge sitting in the main seat.

"Now, both the prosecutor and the lawyer are speechless. Is there any need to continue the trial?"

"...Indeed, the defense has been slow to produce solid evidence, and the testimony of only questionable witnesses is insufficient to convict."

The presiding judge nodded, raised the gavel in his hand, and was about to strike it down to make the final judgment.

"It's not over yet!"

But at this moment, the door of the courtroom was pushed open violently, slamming on both sides with a loud noise.

"The prosecution cannot agree with what the witness Kawashima Hideo said! It is sheer nonsense!"

The person who walked into the courtroom with big strides was actually Prosecutor Gold who had left the court yesterday!

Behind him, followed a person whom Kuroiwa Tatsuji was very familiar with—Kuroiwa Tatsuji's daughter, Kuroiwa Reiko!
"The prosecution hereby presents a new witness, Kuroiwa Reiko, and new evidence, Murasawa Shuichi's medical examination report!"

Prosecutor Gold's voice was full of energy, which made people feel at ease, but it made Kuroiwa Tatsuji look incredulous.

Because, Kuroiwa Reiko is his biological daughter, and now she has become Gold's witness, standing at the testimony stand! ? "Reiko, why is this happening? What do you want to testify about? Are you going to betray me?"

Kuroiwa Tatsuji couldn't help but shout, hoping to make Kuroiwa Reiko change her mind.

However, Kuroiwa Reiko did not back down. On the contrary, she spoke pointedly.

"Dad! I've had enough! You guys should handle your own issues, why do you have to involve me and Monday!?"

"Even if I lose everything I have now...I will help Zhou Yi get justice!"

"you you……"

Kuroiwa Tatsuji was so angry that he was shaking all over, but with the bailiff standing next to him, he had no choice but to give way.

So, Kuroiwa Reiko stood at the witness stand. She still acted like a domineering young lady and spoke without hesitation.

"I want to testify about Murasawa Shuichi's inexplicable coma. Old man, hurry up and let those prosecutors and lawyers listen!"

The presiding judge blinked.

Old man? Well, let's not pursue it for now.

But what is going on?

He looked at Prosecutor Gold who had returned to the prosecutor's seat. Gold had already picked up his faithful coffee cup and his other hand was on the inspection report.

On the projection on the wall, the reason for Murasawa Shuichi's coma was clearly written as food poisoning.

"The bailiffs were unaware of this because Murasawa's food was delivered to him by his fiancée, Kuroiwa Reiko."

"That is to say, the food ingredients sent by Kuroiwa Reiko contain toxins."

Prosecutor Gold took a sip of coffee, and a red light flashed on the instrument in his eye. He raised the coffee cup without hesitation and pointed it at Kuroiwa Tatsuji.

"And Kuroiwa Reiko was totally unaware of this. After she discovered the problem, she contacted me immediately to testify about it!"

"Kuroiwa Tatsuji, you usually use the sharp edge of your sword to hurt others, but now, you are finally going to be hurt by the sharp reverse edge!"

There was an uproar in the gallery.

A daughter is actually willing to give unfavorable testimony against her own biological father for the sake of her son-in-law?

This is truly a shocking piece of news!
"Did I hear you right?"

Sonoko blinked, looked at Kuroiwa Reiko in surprise, and then exclaimed.

"Does she mean to accuse her own father of poisoning her fiancée into a coma?"

Ran Mao Li nodded. She recalled the concern of Kuroiwa Reiko when Murasawa Shuichi was unconscious on Tsukikage Island, and felt a little emotional.

Maybe this is true love...

(There is still a loophole. If Kuroiwa Tatsuji now says that it was Kuroiwa Reiko who poisoned herself, wouldn’t that be a reversal?)
Conan had already thought of other possibilities. As he was thinking this, Kawashima Hideo at the testimony desk also realized this and he said anxiously.

"Kuroiwa Tatsuji, what are you waiting for? Do you really want to go to jail?!"

Kuroiwa Tatsuji opened his mouth to speak, but in the end he said nothing. He just lowered his head and sighed weakly.

"That's my daughter... I can't do it, Kawashima... I can't do it..."

The final reversal has come.
