The presiding judge banged the gavel, looked at Prosecutor Sugiura, and spoke.

"Next, please ask Prosecutor Sugiura to carefully consider your words. If there are any problems again..."

"This court is going to punish you. Do you understand?"

At this time, Gu Meimen, like a victorious rooster, sat back in the defense seat with his head held high and chest raised.

He even did not forget to glance at Xiang Yuanguang who was holding a cup of coffee on the other side.

It seems to be saying [I can do this kind of thing, can you do it? ]

Regarding this, Genmitsu was too lazy to argue with Kumemon, and the details still depended on Shirai Kengo's testimony.

"Hey, Archmage, your offensiveness needs to be improved."

Putting on her headphones, Nanatsuki Koshimizu spoke softly.

"Offensive? Do you mean physical or magical?"

Xiang Yuanguang said casually.

During this time, the presiding judge had already asked the bailiff to invite Inspector Shirai to give his account of the case.

After a while, the door of the courtroom was pushed open.

Tick, tick, tick.

Conan in the audience had an expression that said, "As expected, it's you."

Because the person who walked in was the detective Lao Deng who had been chattering non-stop on the top floor of the company last night.

However, it was the first time that Conan knew the full name of detective Lao Deng.

"I'm Kengo Shirai, an inspector from the Criminal Division."

The old detective walked to the testimony stand, his eyes fixed on the presiding judge.

Then he said this.

"Please allow me to speed up the playback of the surveillance footage from No. 24, the top corridor of Shimadzu Corporation."

The presiding judge seemed to have no reason to refuse such a request.

He nodded. "Inspector Shirai, please start."

Shirai Kengo took out the evidence bag, and inside it was the USB flash drive.

Everyone present knew clearly that the USB drive probably contained a copy of the surveillance records of the top floor corridor.

What exactly is decisiveness...what is proof...through this, we can get the result.

Sizzle. Sizzle.

The surveillance records show that the situation on the 24th, the day of the incident, was like this.

Nothing unusual was captured in the morning, except that Shimazu Zangyuan and Secretary Sanyuan entered the office.

Then Sanyuan's secretary left the office with the documents, disappeared in the elevator, and returned to the office after a while.

At noon, Shimazu Zangyuan and Secretary Sanyuan left the office... Then, Shimazu Zangyuan and Secretary Sanyuan returned to the office to work.

In the afternoon, Shimazu Sae pushed open the office door and entered the office.

Then he came out of the office happily with a note with something written on it.

After Shimazu Sae disappeared from the surveillance, Secretary Sanyuan also left the office and disappeared as well.

Through the scene when Sanyuan's secretary opened the door, you can see Shimazu Zangyuan is flipping through something.

Then, around seven in the evening, Yamada Isamu and Kaga Ranmaru entered the office.

At 7:05, Secretary Sanyuan brought Mao Li and others to the corridor and pushed open the door.

At 7:12, the police arrived and arrested Yamada Isamu and Kaga Ranmaru...The surveillance record ends here.

"I believe everyone has discovered... yes, there are only two suspects in this case."

Inspector Shirai stood next to the projector that had ended the show, and he looked extremely serious.

"Next, let me explain."

【~Explanation and testimony about the contents of surveillance records~】

[Testimony begins]

"The surveillance records show that it was not until the afternoon that Shimazu Sae and Sanyuan Shunji left the office one after another."

"The deceased in this case, Shimazu Zangyuan, is still alive and is looking through the documents."

"It was not until Yamada Isamu and Kaga Ranmaru entered the office that Shimazu Zangyuan was confirmed dead."

"Based on this surveillance video, it is obvious that the murderer could only be these two people."

"It would be impossible for anyone else to enter the office without going through the surveillance footage in the corridor, so I make this assertion."

"That's the end of my testimony."

[End of testimony]

After watching the surveillance records and listening to Kengo Shirai's testimony.

Although the surveillance video did not capture the murder process, if it only captured the two men entering the office...

"Tsk... this is an overwhelming disadvantage. Sanyuan Shunji actually has an alibi?"

The smile on Gu Meimen's face could no longer be suppressed. He frowned and looked at Kaga Ranmaru in the dock.

Kaga Ranmaru's eyes widened, obviously he didn't know such a situation existed.

"It seems that Attorney Gu Meimen has nothing more to say."

Prosecutor Sugiura showed a triumphant smile on his face.

He stood up, walked to Inspector Shirai, and then spoke.

"Your Excellency, the evidence is conclusive. You can now sentence him guilty!"

The presiding judge nodded. If it was as the surveillance records showed, then this was indeed the only possibility.

"Then, this court declares..."

"A pound of pear!"

At this moment, a strong wind swept through the courtroom.

Xiang Yuanguang slapped the table, stood up and said without hesitation.

"How can you decide if he's guilty or not guilty when the defense hasn't even started questioning yet?!"

Word bullet【5/5】.

(Although I don’t know where the flaw is, it’s always right to voice my objection first!)

(This is a unique skill my teacher taught me—bluffing!)

Book friends now have more information than Lao Guang and Gu Meimen, so you can find the contradiction between the testimony and the evidence here. How about taking a guess?

Chapter 105 Reversal of Illumination (5)

As soon as Inspector Shirai opened his mouth, Xiang Yuanguang already knew it.

This was probably another high-end game, not comparable to the trial during my first battle.

The only thing he was thankful for now was that the legal assistant he brought with him was Nanatsuki Koshimizu, not Souji Nakano.

Otherwise, if two half-baked lawyers come together, it would probably be the end of the world.

"The defense's argument... well, I think it makes sense."

"In any case, the defense's right to question cannot be deprived."

The presiding judge nodded, although he felt that there was nothing more to hear in this case.

However, if the lawyer proposes to proceed to the questioning stage, then it is still necessary to go through the procedure.

(Current BGM: Xunwen~モデラート2001)

In Xiang Yuanguang's ears, the BGM has quietly switched.

Instead, a generation of interrogative songs is used in the interrogation phase.

"Humph, I told you all that lawyers are just trying to confuse right and wrong."

"It's clear that the evidence is irrefutable, but they are still struggling in vain. It's a waste of judicial resources."

Inspector Kengo Shirai sneered, clasping his elbows with both hands and tapping his arms with his fingers.

"So, Xiang Yuan, what do you want to ask?"

Nanatsuki Koshimizu moved his sunglasses slightly downwards, revealing his eyes.

Every frame of the surveillance footage that was just played quickly began to replay rapidly in my mind.

The surveillance records this time clearly show that the only suspects are Yamada Isamu and Kaga Ranmaru.

Because, before they appeared, the last person to leave the office was Sanyuan Shunji.

However, according to the surveillance footage, when Sanyuan Shunji left, Shimazu Zangyuan was still alive and flipping through something.

(If the murderer was not Yamada Isamu and Kaga Ranmaru, but someone else...)

(The biggest suspect is the secretary, Mr. Sanyuan Shunji, who was the last person to leave the office.)

(However, the surveillance footage showed that when Sanyuan Shunzhi left the office, Shimazu Zangyuan was still alive...)

(Did Sanyuan Shunji create the illusion that Shimazu Zangyuan was still alive at the time?)

I just can't understand how the existing chain of evidence can disprove the evidence in front of me.

Nanatsuki Koshimizu's fingers began tapping rapidly on the cover of her headphone, confusion appearing in her eyes.

And even Koshimizu Nanatsuki couldn't figure it out, so it was clear that Genguang had no way to find the flaw either...

The hedgehog-haired lawyer held a cup of coffee in his hand as he thought about every word of Shirai Kengo's testimony.

But he didn't ask or doubt rashly.

It will also cause the presiding judge to have a lower opinion of the defense, which is not acceptable in such an already unfavorable environment.

(Until the afternoon, when Shimazu Sae and Sanyuan Shunji left the office one after another... Shimazu Zangyuan was still alive?)

(That is, was Shimazu Zanggen killed after Yamada Isamu and Kaga Ranmaru entered the office?)

(Then why didn't Yamada Isamu and Kaga Ranmaru see the murderer? Could the murderer be invisible?)

Time passed by minute by minute, and the two people in the defense seat remained silent for a full minute and a half.

At this moment, Prosecutor Sugiura finally confirmed that it was lawyer Mugenmitsu who raised the question.

In fact, no flaws were found between the evidence and the testimony, which means——————

"Lawyer Xiang Yuan, you are just bluffing, right?!"

Prosecutor Sugiura stood up proudly and played with his hair with his hands.

Then, he looked at the middle-aged presiding judge in the main seat and said bluntly.

"Your Honor, it appears that the defense is merely stalling for time. It is time to issue a verdict."

At this moment, the presiding judge also felt that the waiting time was indeed too long.

But before he was about to hit the gavel, Xiang Yuanguang's voice rang out.

"Witness, Shirai Kengo, there is a flaw between your testimony and this evidence!" "What?"

Kengo Shirai and Prosecutor Sugiura both turned their heads to look at the hedgehog-haired man.

I saw Xiang Yuanguang standing up and taking out a blueprint from his backpack.

Then, he slapped it on the table.

"I question the statement in Shirai Kengo's testimony that [it is impossible for others to enter the office without going around the surveillance footage in the corridor, so I make this assertion.]"

"The murderer doesn't have to enter the office to commit the crime!"
