Hikigaya, the Son-in-law of Three Surnames

Every speech and action among supporters is controversial, and once released by the media, it will cause a lot of controversial voices on social media.

The so-called top internet stars, the so-called ones who bring their own traffic, and the tricks are different every time, but no one expected that this time would be so different.

Compared with the last insignificant and groundless assistance in the investigation, the prosecution brought by the procuratorate this time is undoubtedly not on the same level in terms of credibility.

Moreover, the person he was suspected of killing was actually the father of his fiancée. Such explosive news broke out at a critical moment during the election, which undoubtedly made people think about whether it was an attack between political opponents or the pursuit of justice.

In any case, on the third day after he was arrested and immediately released on bail, the murder case officially went to trial.

There has been endless debate on the Internet, with supporters and opponents of Hachiman engaged in a war of words with each other, but because he was indeed charged by the procuratorate, the voices of his supporters have been somewhat suppressed.

At this moment, at the door of the court, the reporters seemed like real paparazzi, waiting for Hachiman's arrival.

Soon, the car that Hachiman was riding in stopped in front of the court, and then some careful reporters noticed that Hachiman's means of transportation at this time was not the common Audi Crown, but the Toyota Century used by the royal family. This alone makes people have many associations.

Hachiman came down wearing sunglasses, surrounded by bodyguards protecting him.

"Please make way, Hikigaya needs to go into the court to report." The bodyguard shouted loudly, but he was completely unable to resist the enthusiasm of the reporters.

"Mr. Hikigaya, I heard that you killed Mr. Yukinoshita Yusuke and married his daughter, Ms. Yukino, in order to seize the family property of the Yukinoshita family. Is this true?"

The reporter's questioning style seemed to be designed to deliberately irritate Hachiman. As long as he stopped to answer the reporter, he would win, and what he said would not matter.

"Mr. Hikigaya, I noticed that the car you drove here was a Toyota Century. Does this mean that you have now broken off relations with the Yukinoshita family?"

"Mr. Hikigaya, may I ask..."

"Mr. Hikigaya..."

After passing through countless noises, Hachiman finally arrived inside the court. Fortunately, this was a place where reporters were prohibited from entering.

Accompanying him was the lawyer invited by Minamoto no Raikou, a hired hand of the Minamoto clan, who was also a big shot, no worse than Uncle Yeyama.

Although there were no reporters, several forces were already brewing within the court, and to his surprise, Shinomiya Kaguya walked up to him, along with her maid Hayasaka Ai.

Shinomiya Kaguya didn't know how she should feel when facing her rival.

Although she now admitted that she was far inferior to Hachiman in terms of talent and ability in this election, she had never thought of defeating him in this way.

And the person who provided the evidence was her maid Hayasaka Ai.

"Ms. Hayasaka, is it true that my charm still cannot keep you here?"

The blonde maid pursed her lips, somewhat surprised by the young man's attitude, which made her feel even more guilty.

"Mr. Hikigaya, it's been a pleasure working under you. If it weren't for Miss Kaguya, I would spend my entire life atonement for the sins I committed. I beg for your forgiveness."

Serious people really can’t afford to get hurt, Hachiman shook his head in his heart and said.

"The words of a lifetime are too heavy, but now I hope you can agree to my small request."

"You tell me, if I can do it." Hayasaka Ai's tone was a little urgent.

Then Hachiman walked up to Hayasaka Ai and kissed her gently on the lips.

The soft lips exuded a faint fragrance. Hayasaka Ai was a little surprised, but did not push away. Kaguya, who was standing next to her, opened her eyes wide in surprise. At the same time as she was shocked, there was a kind of curious observation of new things in her eyes.

"Kaguya, Hayasaka, what are you doing!" a sinister voice came.

Shinomiya Yunying saw that Hachiman was kissing Hayasaka Ai, and Hayasaka Ai did not seem to resist. He could not help but clench his fists, and his face was so gloomy that it seemed as if water could drip out.

Hachiman left Hayasaka Ai's side, and the blonde maid gently placed her finger on her lips, her cheeks slightly red.

Then Hayasaka Ai saw that not far from Hachiman, Yukinoshita Yukino was staring at all this. Perhaps she originally wanted to come over and ask Hachiman for the answer in person, but was stopped by this kiss.

This must be the reason why Mr. Hikigaya kissed her, Hayasaka Ai thought, and felt a sense of loss for some reason.

Hachiman walked past Yukino expressionlessly without saying a word. Yukino's shoulders trembled a little, but she finally let him pass by.

A crowd gradually gathered in the criminal court of the court. In addition to Shinomiya and his group, Yukino was also sitting aside, all alone. Haruno and Kiyoyuki did not follow.

After the court opened, the prosecutor from the procuratorate called up investigators Kudo Mika and Takeda Naoki, and began to display the evidence that Hayasaka Ai had stolen from Hachiman.

Everything seemed to confirm that Hachiman was involved in her father's death. Even if he was not the murderer, he was definitely related to the murder.

Looking at Hachiman, who was sitting in the dock with a cold expression and not a trace of panic, Yukino's body was shaky.

His indifference was not proof of his innocence, but merely his confidence that he would not be caught even if he was guilty.

Yukino hated herself for being able to understand his thoughts only at times like this.

However, no matter what Yukino thought, from a legal point of view, it was very difficult to prove the murderer of a murder case that happened five years ago without a murder weapon.

Currently, the evidence presented by the prosecutor is basically indirect, and it is impossible to form an effective chain of evidence.

Hachiman's defense lawyer also focused on this point to question the validity of the evidence. For a moment, the scene in the courtroom was a bit stalemate.

However, Shinomiya Yunying's purpose is to bring Hachiman to court, and he still has a killer trick up his sleeve.

The prosecutor said: "Your Honor, I hope to call a witness to the court. She is an important eyewitness in the case."

For a moment, there was an uproar and whispers in the audience. No one expected that the prosecution could still find a witness after such a long time.

Slowly, Yukino saw her sister Kagero walk to the witness position.

After taking the oath, she introduced herself.

Suddenly, there was an uproar in the audience seats. If Yukino hadn't been sitting in the audience seats, some people would have suspected that it was Yukinoshita Yukino who went to court in person to testify.

"That night, Mr. Hikigaya asked my father to come to the warehouse. Out of curiosity, I quietly followed you up..."

As Yukinoshita Yusuke's daughter, Kagero's testimony is crucial.

Shinomiya Yunying couldn't help but smile. The blood relative of the Yukinoshita family personally accused that what happened today would be a fatal blow to Hikigaya Hachiman's reputation no matter how it was spread.

When Yang Yan was recounting what happened that night, she only explained the time and place. Before she got to the key point, her face suddenly changed and she showed a painful expression. Then she covered her stomach, and beads of sweat oozed from her forehead like water. She fell to the ground, as if she was in great pain.

Sigong Yunying's smile began to freeze.

The prosecutor quickly said, "Judge, our witness has a sudden physical condition. Since the witness's testimony is very important, I hope to adjourn the court temporarily."

The doctor in the court came over to check Yang Yan's body and then rushed him to an ambulance.

After the judge discussed the matter with the jury, he agreed to the prosecution's request and postponed the case for further trial.

The first trial of this murder case ended under somewhat unexpected circumstances.

From beginning to end, Hachiman didn't say a word.

Chapter 67: Waiting for a Price

After the trial, Hachiman returned to the imperial household. Minamoto no Raikou did not ask about what happened, but simply prepared hot water so that he could have a comfortable bath.

After changing his clothes, he returned to the room on the second floor and sat by the balcony. He could see Her Royal Highness the Princess dancing with a sword. Her soft and powerful limbs gave her movements a kind of free and easy beauty.

Under normal circumstances, he might have picked up his two swords and sparred with her, but now he really couldn't muster the interest to do so.

He lit a cigarette, took out a bottle of vodka from the wine cabinet, and quietly looked at the bright afternoon sun.

I don’t know how long it took before a girl’s voice warned: “Smoke, the ashes are about to fall.”

Her voice is so gentle that it makes people feel like a spring breeze. Many people become anxious during pregnancy, but Kato Megumi's temperament becomes more stable, as if she is the older sister.

With her reminder, Hachiman came to his senses. Seeing Xiaohui walking towards him, he quickly put out the cigarette.

This thoughtful gesture made Kato Megumi smile knowingly. Even when he was in a low mood now, he still cared about the people around him.

"I didn't see you when I came back just now. Did you go out to play?" Hachiman asked.

"Well, Senior Shiyu asked me to go clothes shopping this morning?" The girl said in a clear voice, but seemed a little distressed.

"What's wrong, did she bully you?" Hachiman said jokingly.

Kato Megumi's eyes wandered for a while, as if she was confirming the answer, which surprised Hachiman a little. He didn't think that Kasumigaoka Utaha would bully anyone.

"She took me to the mall, and then tried on all the latest clothes of the season in the fashion store, right in front of me." Kato Megumi said in a matter-of-fact tone.

Hachiman was stunned for a moment, then couldn't help laughing.

That guy is really mean. He chose this time. Kato Megumi can hardly wear any clothes except maternity clothes. Is it really a blatant show-off, or self-mutilation?

Hachiman was amused and saw Kato Megumi's eyes, which were like a clear pond. He couldn't help but feel warm in his heart.

"Thank you, Xiaohui."

The girl was not good at making people happy, so it was too difficult for her to come up with a joke, but she still used her own "embarrassing stories" to make Hachiman laugh.

Kato Hui sat down next to him and asked, "How was your day?"

She was not asking about the case itself. Although she did not understand the twists and turns involved, her man was not the kind of person who would be disappointed over such a thing. So, there was only one reason for him to be disappointed.

"Today, I deliberately kissed another woman in front of her. I know she still wants to talk to me. I'm really afraid that I'm soft-hearted now."

He clenched his fists slightly, and Yukino thought that the indifference on his face was his confidence that he had not been caught.

But in fact, it's just a mask to hide one's feelings.

"She must not have slept well last night. She was staggering when she walked, but I didn't dare to send anyone to protect her, for fear that she would 'misunderstand' that I still cared about her. I could only call Yang Nai's people to come over."

The two sat side by side, and Hachiman chattered to the woman who was pregnant with his child, about his feelings for another woman.

But Kato Megumi's face looked very calm, even with a sense of tolerance.

"Can you tell me about your past with Ms. Yukinoshita?"

Hachiman looked at Xiaohui and suddenly laughed. How gentle is this guy?

"We first met in a traffic accident..."

"But she has a weird personality and often gets angry for no reason..."

He recalled the past and indeed felt more relaxed.

"I remember when we went out on a date, we were just about to break through a layer of paper. We were just holding on to see who would confess first, but in the end, that guy couldn't help himself and secretly kissed me when I was asleep. But I didn't expect that I was pretending to sleep, and when I caught him, he scared away and later refused to admit it... But, we finally became a couple that time..."

Then, the determination in Hachiman's eyes gradually became firmer.

Even if it was just his opinion, he firmly believed that this result would at least not make Yukino completely collapse.

Because her relatives are still by her side.

"Xiao Hui, what do you think is the fastest way to make Xue No completely despair of me?"

Kato Megumi looked at the young man who had become resolute again, with sadness and heartache in her eyes.

.......................

Damn it, Sigong Yunying was so annoyed that he stopped at the most critical moment.

If Yukinoshita Kagero's confession is included during the trial, the persuasiveness of the chain of evidence will be greatly enhanced.

He walked anxiously on the way to the hospital, which was the hospital where Yang Yan was brought by the ambulance.

He didn't believe that the ghostly woman would suddenly fall ill at that time.

But Sigong Yunying couldn't figure out what the other party wanted to do for a moment?

From a purely profit perspective, joining him is undoubtedly the best choice.

After asking the nurse, he came to the front of the ward and sure enough, the woman's guards were already guarding the door.

If I remember correctly, she was a mute woman named Tianxuan.

"Go away, I'm going to see your master." He said coldly.

But what surprised him was that this dull woman actually walked away obediently.

She used the voice playback function of her mobile phone to communicate with Sigong Yunying, and the beautiful voice of Google Girl sounded.

"Ms. Yang Yan said that since you are here, she will let you in."

Sigong Yunying snorted coldly and pushed the door open, but there was no one in the ward. He turned his head and looked at Tianxuan with anger.

"Are you kidding me?"

The woman shook her head. Sigong Yunying restrained his expression and walked to the bedside. He saw a piece of paper on the desk.

"So, how much are you going to pay this time?"

Sigong Yunying slammed his fist heavily on the table in front of the bed.

Sure enough, this guy is planning to wait for a good price!

.................

"So, are you planning to wait for a good price?" He was still on the balcony of the room, and even Kato Megumi was by his side. The only difference was that there was a lively girl in front of him.

What's funny is that there's no sign that she collapsed and was hospitalized due to an acute illness.
