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

At the testimony stand, Nanatsuki Koshimizu's sunglasses had slipped off at some point, and she was thinking quickly.

However, there was too little evidence to piece together a chain.

Xiang Yuanguang stared at the table at the defense table. He quickly searched through the various evidence records and documents he had brought with him.

(Nishida Takeo's testimony doesn't apply here... nor does Hirata Kazuaki's account book...)

(Then, what about the radio? No... Asai Narimi also left a radio at the scene...)

(Did I overlook something? Did I… did I miscalculate something?)

Xiang Yuanguang subconsciously covered his head, and the phantom pain came again.

On the morning of April 16th, he looked through documents in the file room. In the afternoon, he went to Yueying Island. He stayed up all night looking through documents. On the morning of the 17th, he went to the court hearing. In the afternoon, he took a boat to Yueying Island to search for evidence. He returned to Tokyo in the early morning of the 18th...

He slept less than six hours in three days, and the side effects of this overload finally came flooding back the moment he was frustrated in the trial.

"Xiang Yuan...Xiang Yuan? Are you okay?"

Conan saw that Xiang Yuanguang's body was shaking. This guy had hardly slept for two days and two nights, relying entirely on coffee to stay awake. It turned out that there were side effects. Even the best body could not withstand this.

dong dong.

The judge struck with the gavel.

"Then, this court declares that Asai Narimi has——"

"A pound of pear!"

Xiang Yuanguang's voice sounded!

Everyone's attention was instantly focused on Xiang Yuanguang.

Even Guiyue Liuyun looked at the trembling novice lawyer with interest, wondering what else he could say.

In fact, Conan used a voice changer to shout this sentence to Genkou.

As a friend, Conan knew very well what Xiang Yuanguang would do at this time.

"Because...because..."

Xiang Yuanguang raised his head. After all, none of his attributes were outstanding. The reason he was able to achieve such an overwhelming effect in the courtroom was entirely because of his extremely sufficient preparations before the case. But now... things were out of control.

"It seems that the defense lawyer has nothing more to say! Make a verdict, your Honor!"

Guiyue Liuyun sneered and said as if it was a matter of course.

However, at this moment, the wind——

get up.

"A pound of pear!"

A strong wind swept through the courtroom, forcibly stopping the judge from bringing down the gavel.

This objection was shouted to Minamoto no Mitsu, but it was not shouted to Minamoto no Mitsu, and it was not shouted by Conan.

Instead, it was a person standing next to Xiang Yuanguang, whom only Xiang Yuanguang could see, who shouted on Xiang Yuanguang's behalf.

He was wearing red clothes and a white scarf around his collar.

"What? Are you giving up? At this time?"

The illusory figure spread his hands, shook his head and said seriously.

"You can defeat Guiyue Liuyun. You have the decisive evidence in your hand!"

What is the "decisive evidence" that Miles Edgeworth mentioned? Can you guess? How about it? As a reminder, this evidence has appeared in the previous article, but it was not included in the court record and was ignored by both the defense and the prosecution.

Chapter 63 Intersection, then Reversal (14)

"You are...Misaki Reiji...?!"

Xiang Yuanguang turned his head and looked at the red figure that only he could see.

At this moment, the noise in the entire court seemed to leave him, and everything became relatively quiet.

"Who I am is not important. What's important is... you can obviously defeat Gui Yue Liu Yun, so why don't you do it?"

"If the friend I know were here, there wouldn't be any evidence at all."

"He would also bang his head on the table and ask all kinds of weird questions to buy time to think."

The shadow of Miles Edgeworth was staring quietly at the hedgehog-haired lawyer in front of him.

In his eyes, Genmi-Kumi is very similar to Naruhodō, but he is more impatient and prefers to intimidate.

However, once the momentum is blocked and the deterrent effect cannot be achieved, the strength will be greatly reduced.

"…You said, I can defeat Gui Yue Liu Yun? Do I really have such evidence on me?"

Xiang Yuanguang murmured to himself, his head still hurting, but he was trying hard to think.

"Calm down and rethink the logic of the entire case."

Miles Edgeworth stretched out his hand and calmly slapped it on the court record on the table.

The next moment, in Xiang Yuanguang's sight, the entire court faded away.

Then, a chessboard appeared, a chess board!

"You should know, right? I like playing chess very much."

"How should we fight back against an attacking enemy...?"

"There are many different tactics on the chessboard."

Mitsurugi Reiji stood beside Xiang Yuanguang and gently touched his forehead with his finger.

Unlike Naruhodō Ryuichi whom we had seen in "Expert's Insights" before, Miles Mitsurugi seemed much calmer.

Xiang Yuanguang suppressed his headache. He wanted to know what conclusion Yu Jian Lianshi would come to.

"No matter how impeccable the testimony is, as long as it is false, there are loopholes."

"Even if you suppress your own evidence, you can still break down the other party's defenses with your words."

"Now, let's review the [chess game]."

Swish swish.

In Xiang Yuanguang's sight, the many pieces of evidence and information he obtained turned into chess pieces on the international chessboard.

Contrary to what he expected, the situation on the chessboard was actually in his favor!

While the opponent's chessboard looks ferocious, it is actually weak and vulnerable.

"In the rules of chess, there's a rule called [Promotion]."

"That's exactly what I want to tell you about the true [essence] of [defense]."

Miles Mitsurugi spread his hands and shook his head.

“In the eyes of the detective, evidence is only [conclusive] if it proves the murderer’s guilt.”

“But in the eyes of a lawyer, an exhibit can bring about new possibilities.”

“That can already be called [decisive].”

"Look at this chess game, rookie lawyer, what do you think the other party's chain of evidence overlooked?"

"What else can bring about completely new [possibilities]?"

(What is overlooked? Bringing about completely new possibilities…?)

Xiang Yuanguang's gaze fell on the chessboard representing Guiyue Liuyun's side.

The other party used Kuroiwa Tatsuji's testimony to refute Koshimizu Nanatsuki's testimony, thus breaking Asai Narimi's alibi. They used unknown means to make Murasawa Shuichi testify that Asai Narimi committed murder, thus obtaining the decisive testimony that Asai Narimi attempted murder. They also used the case twelve years ago to explain Asai Narimi's motive for murder.

Kizuki Ryuun should have made his testimony about Asai Narimi's crimes impeccable, but Mitsurugi Reiji said that his chain of evidence overlooked one point, which could bring about a whole new possibility...

"Murazawa Shuichi, why was he in the piano room at that time?"

"What made Murasawa Shuichi go to the piano room during the Kameyama Isamu succession meeting?" "Why did Hirata Heming attack Murasawa Shuichi?"

He murmured to Yuan Guang, and the more he spoke, the brighter his eyes became.

There is evidence related to a drug smuggling case from three years ago, and presenting it now would be considered perjury.

But Xiang Yuanguang had a piece of decisive evidence in his hand that Guiyue Liuyun could not accuse of perjury!

That’s right, that piece of evidence is——————

The illusory chessboard disappears, and the stagnant time and space resume circulation.

Facing Guiyue Liuyun's relentless pressure, Xiang Yuanguang spoke without hesitation.

"The defense must point to the decisive evidence regarding the facts of this case!"

(The decisive evidence!?)

Conan looked up suddenly, he was thinking quickly.

Countless possibilities were connected in Conan's mind.

He finally realized that he had overlooked one of the most important chains of evidence in the case.

"That piece of evidence is——————[Tuning Hammer]!"

Xiang Yuanguang finally told us what he thought was the most important piece of evidence at the moment.

“…Tuning hammer? Hahahahahaha!!!”

He was shocked by Xiang Yuanguang's aura just now, but the next moment, Guiyue Liuyun was already laughing at him unscrupulously.

"The defense is really out of their minds. What kind of evidence can a tuning hammer be used as?"

"Did a tuning hammer appear in this case? Huh?"

Guiyue Liuyun laughed wantonly, and then he heard an unexpected voice.

"there is."

Koshimizu Nanatsuki spoke thoughtfully.

"What did you say!?"

The prosecutor was caught off guard and turned to look at Nanatsuki Koshimizu, the only valid witness he had not bribed.

"I said, there was a tuning hammer at the crime scene. According to the testimony of Miss Kuroiwa Reiko."

"That tuning hammer is something that Mr. Murasawa Shuichi loves and is very important to him."

(For details, see Chapter 44: Intertwined Murder Cases)

"After Inspector Megure led his men to Tsukikage Island, the tuning hammer was handed over to the police."

Nanatsuki Koshimizu pushed her sunglasses and looked at Guiyue Liuyun with some confusion.

"Could it be that Prosecutor Guiyue is unaware of the existence of this evidence?"

"...?"

Old Deng was silent. He flipped through the documents left by Prosecutor Gold in disbelief.

Page, page, and page after page.

"W-what? There really is such evidence? Why didn't I know about its existence?"

"Damn you, Gord! You actually anticipated this and hid this evidence!?"

Guiyue Liuyun almost cursed out loud.

Whether it is a lawyer or a prosecutor, it is normal to hide evidence and conduct a surprise evidence raid in court.

But how the hell is it possible that even the Procuratorate was kept in the dark?

What the hell is this bastard doing?

"Your Excellency, the case is not over yet."

"The defense requires that the victim, Murasawa Shuichi, testify about the evidence in this case [tuning hammer] and why he went to the piano room alone!"
