I'm in Conan, but I'm in Ace Attorney

(If Matsuo Takashi cannot be proven to be the first suspect, Mukai Genmitsu will be the defendant and go to trial!)

(Those prosecutors don’t care if the defendant is guilty or not, they just want to prove that the defendant is guilty!)

"I'll ignore your objection for now. Goodbye, Mr. Detective."

Matsuo Takashi turned around like a winner.

Standing not far away, Maori Ran looked at Maori Kogoro with great concern.

(Dad is rarely like this... It seems that he really believes that Lawyer Xiang Yuan is innocent...)

(Is there anything I can do for the case?...If only Shinichi were here at this moment.)

(He will surely solve this case easily and prove Attorney Xiang Yuan's innocence.)

She was thinking in her heart that she was planning to take Conan to comfort Kogoro Mouri.

Then they found that Conan was missing. "Conan? Really, where did Conan go again?"

Xiaolan was a little panicked. After all, this was a crime scene, not an amusement park.

She looked around and saw Dr. Asai, whom she knew from the audience, quietly enter the mixing room.

(Hey, what Dr. Asai wants to do is————)

"A pound of pears (objection)! There is a problem with the [time] point you made earlier!"

Word Bullet【5/5】

Attracted the attention of everyone present.

The strong wind blew in all directions with Genkou as the center. Matsuo Takashi was the first to be hit and even took several steps back.

The host swallowed his saliva and wondered if Xiang Yuanguang really knew magic.

Otherwise, why would a protest stir up trouble?

"You just said that I disappeared from the security camera range for five minutes, right?"

"What if I say that for three and a half minutes out of the five minutes, I was actually in the stairwell between the seventh and sixth floors?"

"Stairwell!? Why are you there!?"

Cold sweat ran down Matsuo Takashi's forehead as he stared at Xiang Yuanguang.

Said without hesitation.

"Do you have evidence? Evidence that you were in the stairwell between the sixth and seventh floors for three and a half minutes!?"

Everyone present immediately looked at Xiang Yuanguang.

There are no security cameras in the stairwells, only in the corners of the corridors.

How could Xiang Yuanguang prove that he was in the stairwell for three and a half minutes?

“Watch out! Show me the witness——Miss [Nagai Ayako]!”

He pointed to Genkou in the air, and saw Ms. Nagai Ayako who had already completed her testimony.

Nagai Ayako's face was full of surprise. She didn't know that she could be the proof of Xiang Yuanguang's presence.

"Okay! Brother Xiang Yuan, explain quickly, how are you going to let Miss Nagai prove that you are in the stairwell?"

Inspector Megure suddenly became alert.

pat.

Xiang Yuanguang snapped his fingers, and the prelude to reversal sounded in his ears.

"I was in the stairwell before Mr. Matsuo Takashi and Ms. Nagai Ayako entered the recording studio. The evidence is that I can repeat every word of the conversation between Ms. Nagai Ayako and Mr. Matsuo Takashi."

"If you don't believe me, I can repeat it now and let Ms. Nagai Ayako confirm whether what she said is consistent with what I repeated."

"Then, assuming that I committed the crime and killed Yefang Daoyan, why would I bring security personnel to search for the body and call the police when the police could not find any evidence of the crime?"

Matsuo Takashi's brows twitched. That's right, if it was someone who was killed by Yuan Guang.

He didn't know Ye Fang Daoyan and had no motive. There was no camera that captured him entering the mixing room and there was no evidence.

In other words, if Xiang Yuanguang killed someone, it would be a typical random murder case.

This is a case that has a 90% chance of being unsolvable. Why would Xiang Yuanguang fall into the trap?

"But, but... we can't rule out the possibility that you deliberately called the police in order to... solve your own... crime, creating the illusion that you didn't kill anyone and were cooperating with the investigation..."

Takashi Matsuo thought quickly and questioned Genkou again.

"Yes. That is indeed possible. So, let's reverse our thinking... "

In front of the camera, Xiang Yuanguang snapped his fingers again. Although he was a suspect in a murder case, he smiled in this irreversible situation and appeared extremely confident.

"It's not that I have to call the police to clear my name, but that I have no choice but to call the police to clear my name... How about thinking this way?"

"Excuse me, under what circumstances can I only take the measure of calling the police to clear myself of criminal suspicion?"

"Could you please ask Mr. Takashi Matsuo, who came up with this idea, to explain how I [kill] people?"

Chapter 35 Lawyer, Detective, Doctor, Detective

Can it be proved that Xiang Yuanguang was able to kill people from the ninth floor to the fourth floor in one and a half minutes, and then return to the seventh floor stairwell from the fourth floor, and was not captured by the security cameras during this time... ?

What a joke! ?

Beads of sweat dripped down Matsuo Takashi's forehead. He didn't expect that Xiang Yuanguang, who was invited as a bonus, was actually more powerful and more outstanding than the real owner Maori Kogoro!

If he must prove how Xiang Yuanguang shot and killed Yafang Daoyan in the mixing room on the fourth floor in one and a half minutes without being discovered, he could actually do it... but the process... only the murderer knows.

In other words, if he could prove that Xiang Yuanguang could shoot and kill Yafang Daoyan in one and a half minutes, then his alibi of three and a half minutes would also become void...!

(This guy... actually wants to take me down with him?)

(No, no, no, no, no, no…)

Matsuo Takashi's face was already extremely gloomy.

(Detective Mori, who was in charge of the reasoning process, Inspector Megure, who was in charge of solving the case...even the prosecutor Kuma Sukawa, who was in charge of prosecuting the defendant in the court, all stood on the side of Genko.)

(From this perspective, even if I was not standing in the defendant's seat in the courtroom but in the witness seat, I would still be dragged down by Xiang Yuanguang...!)

The boss of the daily TV editorial department was overjoyed when he saw the steadily rising data.

This is the first time that the All Japan Detective Agency unit has such a high viewership rating.

As expected, only by doing some real case solving and reasoning battles can good results be achieved.

He picked up the intercom next to him and talked to the staff on the fourth floor.

"Listen to me, the ratings are going up now. Next, you tell the police."

"All the security cameras in the entire daily TV editorial department can be used."

"As long as they don't cut off the live broadcast signal, they can cooperate with the investigation in any way!"

The staff on the fourth floor nodded repeatedly and looked at the security camera.

It was as if I could see the approving eyes of my boss.

It seems that promotion and salary increase are just around the corner.

He immediately came between Xiang Yuanguang and Matsuo Takashi who were looking at each other, and spoke seriously.

"My boss from the editorial department just talked to me and told me..."

"The police don't have to worry about privacy issues and can use all the anti-theft cameras in the entire newsroom."

"All surveillance records, today, yesterday, or any other day, can all be retrieved!"

Matsuo Takashi panicked. If this continued...

The image of him already a little panicked and sweating profusely was also conveyed to audiences across the country.

The young detectives who were watching the show analyzed the situation.

"This case must have been committed by Matsuo Takashi. He looks so panicked."

"Yeah, and Brother Xiang Yuanguang is so handsome! He definitely can't be the murderer!"

The kids were talking more and more excitedly, and suddenly, the picture on TV changed.

thump.

Xiang Yuanguang slapped the table next to him, and then pointed at Matsuo Takashi in the air!

"Excuse me, Mr. Matsuo Takashi, can you find out how I killed people?"

"If not, are you the bigger suspect now?!"

Takashi Matsuo retreated, and retreated again.

His face began to twitch, but he eventually calmed down.

(No, as long as I deny it, they won’t be able to find evidence.)

(This case will be closed as a wrongful death and I will not be caught...)

call out.

A silver needle silently pierced the back of Kogoro Mouri's neck.

Detective Maori, who had just been stroking his chin and thinking about what to say to Yuan Guang, immediately fell into a peaceful sleep.

He fell back limply. Mao Li Ran was startled and hurriedly went over to support Detective Mao Li's body.

"Oh, oh, Maori brother, are you finally sleepy?"

Inspector Megure was very energetic this time. Xiang Yuanguang was no longer confused, and Mao Li began to sleep.

The advantage is on my side, this is a sure thing!

"Yes. Inspector Megure, I think the reason why Mr. Matsuo did not deduce the crime process of Mr. Yuan is because of this."

"It's because he can't reason about it. Otherwise, he will fall into the quagmire of self-proof."

Conan, who had finished checking the mixing room, quietly slipped under a table.

He analyzed this to his bow-tie voice changer.

"Because Mr. Matsuo Takashi is the murderer. Therefore, he cannot infer Mr. Mukaigen's crime process."

"W-What!? You said I'm the murderer? Do you have any evidence?"

Matsuo Takashi was completely furious at this moment.

He looked nothing like the gentle and elegant person he had before.

The cruelest thing in the world is to give people hope and then smash it.

Takashi Matsuo, who originally thought he could perfectly shift the blame and get away with it, now completely fell into a quagmire.

His mentality has completely collapsed, and it is the best time to discuss the solution!

"Mr. Matsuo, you are very cautious. There are no fingerprints of yours on the pistol."

"It looked like the murderer entered through the door of the mixing room and shot the victim, but that was not the case."

"Please ask Officer Takagi and Doctor Asai to explain this."

Asai Narimi and Officer Takagi walked out of the mixing room, one after the other.

Officer Takagi seemed to be following behind humbly, but in fact, he was very happy.

For no other reason than relying on the reminders of the detective and the help of Dr. Asai.

This time, the evidence Takagi found was decisive!

(Now, I want a salary increase!!!)

Officer Takagi looked up and held up the mobile phone in the evidence bag in his hand.

"By simply extracting fingerprints from the tape, we determined that the deceased had used the [answer button] on his mobile phone before his death."

"That is to say, someone called the deceased before he died!"

“What does this mean? I asked my assistant to talk to Mr. Yefang and confirm his location—”
