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

Karma Hao's fingers tapped his elbow subconsciously.

However, having said that, the person actually targeted by the defense is Yan Tu Haici. He actually has no objection to bringing this guy down. After all, this guy's hands and feet were indeed not clean in this incident.

There would be nothing wrong if the defense lawyer eliminated him early.

Anyway, he had no flaws or shortcomings in this trial. Even if the defense tried their best, they would not be able to defeat him. Therefore, even if he lost, he could leave the court with dignity.

There is no need to rush to the ground with your head - use your head to test the strength of the wall of the court behind you.

"--From this perspective, if everyone except me leaves early, wouldn't that actually prove my level is high, and give me the opportunity to mock those guys later?"

Demon Hunter's mind was wavering and his attitude was not firm.

However, Shumohao himself did not realize that his attitude was not firm. In Yan Tuhaici's view, his attitude was just as unresolute as the presiding judge's in his eyes, that is, he had no attitude at all.

Yan Tuhaici, who was standing behind the witness stand, reached out and pushed up his small red glasses.

He knew exactly what Karma Hao was thinking.

Anyway, this old prosecutor is unreliable now, so he should just rely on himself.

So, after the presiding judge clearly gave his decision, Yan Tu Haici immediately clapped his hands and laughed.

"Old Chief, I completely agree with your opinion. However, there's one thing I need to clarify. It's not that I won't cooperate with the court, but generally, the person in charge of criminal cases isn't designated until after the court is notified."

"After all, there are so many criminals in Scotland Yard, and there are also many people involved in solving cases.

Choosing one person to testify in court is something that needs to be considered.”

"Even if you, Mr. Chairman, now say you want to let the criminal in charge of the Gypsy murder case testify in court..."

Commissioner Yan Tu leaned forward slightly, with half of his face hidden in the shadows. He pushed his red glasses and smiled, looking like a good old man, a good policeman who was responsible for the citizens of old London.

"In the end, I still have to go to Scotland Yard to select the person in charge of the crime, and then have him testify in court, right? Old Master, can you accept this result?"

“Ah, this…”

Hearing this, even the presiding judge hesitated.

The purpose of having the criminal responsible for the gypsy murder case testify in court is to allow the defense lawyer to find Yan Tuhaici's criminal suspicion from the criminal responsible for the testimony.

But the problem is that the person in charge of criminal cases was selected by Yan Tu Haici, and even the presiding judge has no right to interfere in this regard.

The presiding judge has extremely high authority in the courtroom, but if he is selected to be in charge of criminal matters, he must leave the courtroom and go to Scotland Yard to make personnel changes. He has no way of interfering in matters that are so far away.

In other words, the criminal testimony may contain information that is unfavorable to Yan Tuhaici.

These were two contradictory facts, so the presiding judge was a little hesitant. He looked at Naruhodō Ryunosuke at the defense table and asked again.

"Lawyer Naruhodō, what Director Yan said is true. The Gypsy murder case was not originally planned to be heard in court tonight. Whether you are in charge of the prosecution or the criminal department, that will be tomorrow's work."

"Would you accept the decision to have Commissioner Yan select you as the person responsible for the criminal prosecution of the Gypsy murder case?"

—This is indeed a bit troublesome.

If the person in charge of criminal investigation was a subordinate selected by Yan Tuhaici, then it would be almost impossible for them to obtain any testimony from him that might be unfavorable to Yan Tuhaici.

Naruhodō Ryunosuke rubbed his forehead with his fingers; he felt a slight headache.

So, should we agree with Yan Tu Haici's decision to be in charge of criminal matters, or change the breakthrough point?

The Death God elementary school student next to him said without hesitation,

"Wright, I agree with Yan Tu Haici's idea. Let him select the person responsible for testifying in the criminal court."

"No, it's better to say that even if Yan Tu Hai Ci didn't say this, I would have asked you to raise this point. The person in charge of the criminal case must let Yan Tu Hai Ci make the choice in court."

Conan Edogawa pushed his plain glasses, and a cold light flashed on the lenses.

"Because, only in this case can we ensure that the person in charge of the criminal case who appears in court is really related to this case and must be Yan Tu Hai Ci's people, and we can get useful information from them."

"If we advance, we can keep both, but if we retreat, we lose everything."

"Wright, what's your choice?"

Hearing this, Naruhodō Ryunosuke shrugged helplessly, shook his head and laughed.

"Conan, since we've come to this point, the result is certainly certain."

He slammed his hand on the table and then spoke loudly to the presiding judge.

"The defense agrees with Director Yan Tu's idea. Now, please ask Director Yan Haici to select the person responsible for testifying in court!

The presiding judge was somewhat surprised that Naruhodō Ryunosuke actually agreed to this.

But he didn't ask any more questions and chose to respect the defense's ideas.

However, before making the final decision, he asked the prosecutor's opinion again.

The old man with the wig turned his head to look at Karma Hao who was sitting in the prosecutor's seat, and then asked him seriously.

"Prosecutor Hao, what do you think?

Prosecutor Hao just nodded and said nothing.

Although Yan Tu Haici's decision seemed a bit defensive.

But there is nothing wrong with doing so.

After all, they have teamed up to trick the Yaluwu people out.

It is possible that both of them would use similar methods against the other, so it is normal to be on guard.

"Then, please let Director Yan Tu choose the person in charge of criminal matters!"

The presiding judge brought down the gavel and made the final decision.

Chapter 630: Officer Reiner

Yates left the courtroom and soon returned with a Scotland Yard officer.

The police officer looked very serious and did not smile.

It's completely different from Gina's lively appearance, but makes him seem more reliable.

The police officer walked quickly to the witness stand and stood where Ya Liuwuren had stood before, next to Yan Tuhaici. He saluted the presiding judge seriously and then spoke.

"I am a police officer from Scotland Yard, Rainer Kendall, and I will be the responsible criminal witness in the murder of a gypsy. Your Excellency the Judge, please give me your guidance."

The presiding judge had seen so many frivolous criminal cases that he was a little uncomfortable with the sudden appearance of a particularly serious one.

He reached out to straighten his silver wig somewhat uncomfortably, then coughed twice, cleared his throat and spoke.

"Ahem, the court is now clear. So, Officer Reiner Kend, do you fully understand the facts of this case? I know that the trial of this case was held suddenly, and you don't have much time to understand it!"

"If you don't understand this enough, then this court can allow a 30-minute recess."

Although we want to fully understand a case during a 30-minute recess, this time is definitely not sufficient.

But it is much better than letting Officer Rainer Kend go straight in with the file without knowing anything.

Seeing that the presiding judge was showing some concern for the police officer next to him, Yan Tuhaici clapped his hands, attracting the attention of the presiding judge and others, and said with a smile.

"Haha, old man, don't worry, this child's ability will exceed your imagination."

"He was the first person to arrive at the scene of the gypsy murder case to conduct an investigation. He also compiled the case information in a very short time, so he didn't need any time to familiarize himself with the case."

"Police Officer Rainer Kendall is perfectly suited to being in charge of the criminal case of the gypsy murder!"

—-In other words, as Conan speculated, did Yan Tu Haici really specifically let the police officers who were closely related to the case and most likely his subordinates appear in court as the criminal responsible persons?

Naruhodō Ryunosuke's face was calm, but in fact, there were already some waves in his heart.

Except for the first time when Conan was giving orders over the phone and was not familiar with the situation in the courtroom, and made a mistake and fell into Yan Tu Haici's trap, every judgment and choice he made after arriving at the courtroom was correct.

Who is this kid? Why does he feel like Mr. Holmes after he gets serious?

If Kudo Yusaku, or other modern people, knew what Wright was thinking, they would definitely tell Wright Ryunosuke seriously and accurately: "This kid is the Sherlock Holmes of the Heisei era."

"Since Officer Reiner Kend is capable of handling criminal cases, then stop wasting my time and start giving your testimony!"

Karma Hao at the prosecutor's table said impatiently.

His time is precious, and the trial process is already a bit cumbersome, so it would be better to finish it quickly.

"Ryunosuke Naruhodō, do you have any other opinions on letting Officer Reiner Kend testify about what he knows about the case?"

————-Yes, of course. For example, I should be the one to present the content of the testimony.

Naruhodō Ryunosuke was complaining in his heart, but in the end he didn't say anything and just nodded.

Now the testimony that prosecutor Hao wants to ask for coincides with the testimony he wants to ask for. Since there is no conflict in the two's goals, it is naturally best not to provoke an argument.

Because when he refutes Karma Hao, Karma Hao will retort him, and then the defense will be the one who suffers.

"Well, it seems that the defense and the prosecutor have reached a rare consensus in this trial. Then, this court will agree with Prosecutor Hao's idea and invite Mr. Rainer Kend, the criminal case officer, to testify."

"This is all the information you know about the Gypsy murder case, is that okay?

The meticulous criminal officer nodded in affirmation.

"Of course, Your Honor, I can tell you everything about the Gypsy murder case in detail. This is exactly the meaning of my presence in court as the person in charge of the criminal case."

Boom!

The judge's gavel came down.

[“Testimony on all the circumstances surrounding the Gypsy murder case~]

[Testimony begins]

"The deceased in this case was a wandering person, a gypsy with no fixed place to live, and the deceased was a man."

"During his lifetime, he roamed around various locations in Old London, maintaining a certain peculiar pattern. According to investigations, he seemed to have a history of illegally trading games—"

"This pattern of wandering around multiple locations without leaving Old London is most likely a means of survival for the deceased to avoid debts and continue his illegal trading game."

"As for why the deceased was wearing strange clothes and looked like a wizard—"

"In fact, this is one of the ways the dead make a living, because in the eyes of the British, gypsies are mysterious, possessing witchcraft and being good at divination."

"So the deceased, who knew nothing about this, would go to the streets in this disguise and obtain some money from the citizens of old London through deception and blackmail, which would serve as initial funds for the subsequent illegal trading game."

"So, I think the death of the deceased was most likely due to the fact that he owed too much money, or because he cheated or extorted too much money in something, which led to revenge killing."

[End of testimony]

Rainer Kendall's testimony seemed a little far-fetched.

At least, in Naruhodō Ryunosuke's opinion, there were many points that he should have raised but did not.

Such as the white powder on the body of the deceased, or the crow feathers of the extremely black night crow near the deceased.

In other words, Reiner Kend is most likely a corrupt police officer who is completely inclined to Yan Tu Haici's side. His testimony is full of lies. If we can find a loophole in the logical chain and defeat him...

"" - There's a high probability that we can get testimony that's unfavorable to Yan Tu Hai Ci, right?"

Naruhodō muttered.

The Shinigami elementary school student next to him nodded in agreement.

He stroked his chin, his eyes wandering around the criminal in charge.

In the Sherlock Holmes collection, there was a passage that mentioned the logician's argument. Although it was not a point of view recognized or expressed by Holmes, it still had some merits in Conan's eyes.

For example, if obtaining this criminal suspect is the final result of the corrupt police under Yan Tu Haici, and if we trace back the case based on various events from this final result...

"The case can be solved."

Edogawa Conan said as if talking to himself.

Chapter 631 Continuous Breakthroughs

"It seems that the cause and effect of the gypsy's murder are very clear. So, defense lawyer, do you have any other questions? In my opinion, there is no need to ask any more questions!"

Standing at the prosecutor's seat, Karma Hao folded his arms, tapped his elbows with his fingers, and said indifferently.

Even though Yan Tu Haici seemed to be on guard against him, he did intend to find an opportunity to trick Yan Tu Haici, but definitely not now, at least not right away.
