Violence supervision in Conan

Chapter 327 The Confidence of the Undefeated Queen, Kogoro Mori: I will protect Eiri!
When they saw Kisaki Eri come forward and admit that the hair that fell next to the corpse belonged to her, everyone involved showed expressions of shock and disbelief.

"Mom! What are you talking about?!"

Ran Mouri is very anxious, so if Eri Kisaki admits it, wouldn't she also be a suspect?

"Lawyer Fei..."

Saku Hoshi's expression froze and he looked at Kisaki Eri with a complicated look.

But the most difficult to accept is Kogoro Mori.

He jumped up and said, "Stop talking nonsense. How could Yingli kill someone?!"

Conan was silent for a moment, but his persistence in seeking the truth still made him harden his heart: "But the existence of this hair proves that Auntie Hime had been to Miss Usui's room after she returned to her room!"

Maori Kogoro did not choose to use his fists this time, but retorted coldly: "It is also possible that Eri came to Miss Usui's room sometime before dinner yesterday. Just a hair cannot prove that Eri is a suspect!"

Conan was speechless for a moment.

Although her intuition told her that Kisaki Eri had definitely come here late at night, what Mouri Kogoro said was not impossible.

"It goes without saying."

However, at this time, Kisaki Eri took the initiative to confess.

"I did come to Usui's room last night."

"Eri, you..."

Kogoro Maori looked unhappy.

Hibiki Eri snorted, "I've been here before, there's nothing to hide. Do you think I really killed someone?"

"of course not!"

Kogoro Mori blurted out, his tone firm.

"That's okay."

Kisaki Eri's tone softened a little.

"So Aunt Eri, may I ask what brings you to see Miss Usui so late at night?"

Conan asked, immediately earning a glare from Mouri Kogoro.

Fei Yingli did not show any abnormal expression, and explained calmly:

"I just wanted to find Usui and ask him why he did that last night!"

Do you really think she can't see through Usui Ritsuko's little tricks?
"Yingli..."

Maori Kogoro realized it belatedly: "So it's because of me that you..."

"Don't be so sentimental."

Kisaki Eri lowered her head and pushed her glasses up on her nose, as if she didn't take this man seriously at all.

Still maintaining that hypocritical and arrogant attitude:

"I don't care what woman you want to mess around with.

What I care about is why Usui Ritsuko would do this to me.

What conflict does she have with me?
So, last night after the banquet, I went to Usui's room to confront her and had a frank chat with her."

Looking at the expression on Kisaki's face at this moment, everyone could guess without her explaining in detail that this negotiation obviously did not achieve the effect she expected.

Sure enough, after Hibiki Eri briefly explained the process, the final result was that the pair of "plastic sisters" parted ways unhappily.

Even Usui Ritsuko was provoked into a rage by the sharp words of Kisaki Eri.

The two of them completely broke down in the conversation, and in the end, Kisaki Eri left with a sneer.

"Then I left Usui Ritsuko's room and went back to my own room to rest.

It was around 11 o'clock at night."

Although Kisaki Eri calmly narrated her experience, the solemn atmosphere did not ease at all.

Because of what Kisaki Eri said, she could not clear herself of suspicion at all.

She said she just had some arguments with Usui Ritsuko.

When she left the room, Ritsuko Usui was still alive.

But who can prove it?
No one saw her leave, and no one saw whether Usui Ritsuko was still alive at that time.

If this cannot be proven, Eri Kisaki will not be able to escape suspicion based solely on the hair left next to the deceased and the fact that she appeared at the crime scene.

The situation was extremely unfavorable to her.

"hateful……"

Kogoro Mouri had a gloomy face and clenched his fists tightly.

Although Kisaki Eri had been deliberately pretending to be indifferent to him, how could he not see it——

The reason why Hibiki Eri was charged with this unclear crime was entirely because of him, the culprit.

If he hadn't been drunk and acting wildly, flirting with other women, she would never have gone to talk to Usui Ritsuko, let alone get into such trouble.

"Yingli..."

Maori Kogoro's mood was very complicated, anxious, regretful, self-blaming...

Mao Lilan also looked at her mother pitifully: "Mom..."

"What are you worried about..."

Kisaki Eri shook her head helplessly.

Compared to the worried-looking father and daughter, there wasn't much worry on her face.

“Indeed, I have a motive to kill.

There's hair I left at the scene, and maybe my fingerprints, and I don't have an alibi yet.

But these so-called strong evidences, taken together, are enough to deal with ordinary suspects.

But, do you want to use this to prove that I am the murderer and convict me in court?" The corners of Hibiki's mouth curled up slightly.

Her smile is full of her confidence as a famous lawyer:
“Then this evidence is far from complete.

After all, they can only prove that I was at the crime scene before the death of the deceased, but they cannot prove that I am the murderer. "

"This……"

Everyone was slightly stunned.

Several lawyer colleagues present were nodding in approval.

That’s right, innocent until proven guilty.

For these capable lawyers, as long as the crime process is not captured by surveillance cameras and they are not directly nailed down, they will have a way to find the incompleteness in the police's chain of evidence.

Even if the chain of evidence is complete, they can find loopholes in possible procedural violations in police evidence collection, evidence preservation, etc., thereby subverting the entire guilty charge.

In short, do you want to send the "undefeated queen" of the judiciary to prison based solely on the evidence you have found now?

That's obviously impossible.

So Kisaki Eri's confidence did not come out of thin air.

She has a hundred ways to prove herself!

Don't say she didn't kill anyone, even if she did...

The police couldn't do anything to her.

"You may find my skin scraps, hair, fingerprints, and scent at the scene."

There were no questioning voices as Hibari Eri just started talking to herself, telling in advance all the clues that the police might find.

“It’s normal to find it because I have indeed been to this room.

But these are not direct evidence that I killed anyone.”

Eri Kisaki has enough reasons to overturn all the evidence found by the police at the scene.

In this case, it would be unimaginably difficult to prove that she was the murderer.

But having said that…

Mao Lilan is still secretly worried about her mother:

Even though the police's evidence was not enough to prove that her mother was the murderer, her mother was ultimately blamed.

Being aroused by such a serious suspicion may have a certain impact on Eri Kisaki's reputation, life, and even career prospects.

“No, it’s not enough to just get away with it.

We must find the real murderer and clear my mother of suspicion."

Mao Lilan was determined to prove her mother's innocence.

But for a moment, she had no idea how to break the impasse.

Therefore, they could only turn to "Kudo Shinichi" for help.

"Shinichi..."

"Uh."

Looking at the girl with eyes full of expectation and pleading, Kaito Kid, the silly guy, felt a little embarrassed.

Although he is smart, he is not good at solving cases...

But he had to react at this time, so he pretended to have a firm expression and nodded at Mao Lilan.

"Don't worry, leave it to me!"

After receiving the signal from "Kudo Shinichi", Mao Lilan immediately felt relieved.

As long as Shinichi is here, there will be no problem!

Kaito Kidd: ...

He quickly glanced at Conan.

Hey, great detective, solve the case quickly, that's your mother-in-law!
Conan: ...I know, so long-winded!
As soon as their eyes met, they understood each other's meaning tacitly.

Then Conan frowned and thought.

Deep down, he certainly didn't want to believe his mother-in-law. Ugh, Kisaki Eri was a murderer.

Although there is no direct evidence to prove this at present, the situation remains not optimistic for Eri Kisaki.

Eri Kisaki did have a motive to kill, and she appeared at the crime scene around the time of the crime.

As long as the real murderer is not caught, she will still be the number one suspect.

A tall tree attracts the wind. As the "undefeated queen" of the judicial world, Eri Kisaki has naturally made countless enemies while achieving success.

If she doesn't solve this case, she will probably still suffer a lot of negative consequences.

In comparison, before Takeshi Onino came forward to confirm it, Saku Norifugi's suspicion was not worth mentioning at all.

Just when Gui Yewu, who was unable to bear it any longer, was about to speak—

"Leave it to me!"

A confident voice suddenly sounded.

Just when Conan, Ran Mouri and Eri Kisaki were thinking about how to find out the truth of the case, that man stood up.

It’s him, Kogoro Mori.

He put one hand in his pocket, gently adjusted his tie with the other hand, raised his head, and stood in front of his wife in an extremely handsome posture.

Completely different from the decadent and incompetent greasy uncle he usually is.

At this moment, Maori Kogoro exudes a firm and confident light:

"I will clear the suspicion on Yingli!"
