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

But what he didn't expect was that Nanatsuki Koshimizu next to him was not surprised. She put her sunglasses back on and said listlessly.

"This is not surprising, it's normal."

This... this is normal! ?

Xiang Yuanguang was horrified.

"You seem very surprised. As a lawyer specializing in criminal cases, don't you know this?"

The female detective explained casually.

"There are less than 150 official medical examiners in the entire country, and they are concentrated in major cities."

"There are no forensic doctors in small places. Usually, the work is done by the local police's forensic officers, or by students from nearby medical schools."

"Not every place has forensic doctors like those in Tokyo. The Ikedai area is not under the jurisdiction of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, and they are not obligated to send forensic doctors to help."

"In this case, the forensic police officer wrote it directly. If they were not sure about the time of death, they would not write it and just let it go."

Nanatsuki Koshimizu put her hand on her speaker out of boredom, watching Kogoro Mori's reasoning performance, and couldn't help shaking her head.

"Well, this is how this country is. A police system that can't survive without detectives..."

Xiang Yuanguang was silent.

Well, according to his previous life, over 90% of unnatural deaths in this country were closed.

The police in Conan's world can catch the murderer only because of the existence of detectives.

For a moment, Xiang Yuanguang didn't know what to say.

The author has something to do today and has not written today's chapter yet. The next four chapters will be updated after six o'clock.

Chapter 111 Reversal of Illumination (11)

Uncle Maori and the presiding judge's words.

This not only inspired Kumimon in the defense seat, but also made Conan in the audience aware of it.

Because, last night, Xiang Yuanguang lifted him up to look at something on the table.

But I didn’t see any book like the [account book]. So, where did this account book come from?

Could it be that it was found somewhere in the office after Inspector Kengo Shirai cleared the area?

(Since the police submitted the account book as relevant evidence in this case, it must be because the account book is related to this case.)

(However, President Shimazu wasn't looking through the account book that night... There wasn't an account book on the desk.)

(How did the police conclude that the account book was related to the case?)

Conan started thinking while listening to the conversation between Uncle Maori and the presiding judge.

All the evidence and possible plots in this case flashed through his mind one by one.

Autopsy report, second phase housing plan, account books, surveillance records...

Surveillance records? In the high-speed surveillance records...it seems that what President Shimadzu is looking through is not the second phase project proposal.

"So that's what it is... The thing President Shimazu was looking through in the surveillance footage should be the account book!"

"It turns out the police found the account book based on surveillance footage and submitted it as evidence in this case!"

The Death God Elementary School Student pushed his glasses up, and a cold light flashed across the lenses.

Under normal circumstances, it seems not impossible that President Shimadzu would look through the account books in the afternoon and look at the second-phase plan in the evening.

However, this seems untenable in the face of edited surveillance records.

(It seems that one afternoon, President Shimazu was looking through the account books, and this day happened to be edited into yesterday.)

(Then, just check the monitoring records on the top of Shimadzu to find the corresponding time!)

(Yes, I will investigate after the court adjourns today.)

On the other side, facing the joint reasoning of the presiding judge and Uncle Maori.

Yamada Yong could no longer hold it in any longer. He slammed his palm on the table and spoke loudly.

"How can you say that? The compensation for the right of illumination is only 3,000 yen."

"Why would I kill someone for 3,000 yen? This is totally unreasonable!"

"Even though I usually like to make a little profit, I would never do something like this!"

Three thousand yen...?

Uncle Maori shook his head and said.

"According to the description given by the member of Shimadzu Corporation at the briefing."

"What you want is not 3,000 yen, but 3 million yen!"

"Three thousand yen may not be a reason to kill someone, but what about three million yen? Isn't that a reason too?"

"Besides, I've seen murders in Beika-cho where people were murdered for a thousand yen!"

"Couldn't this be your motive for murder?"

Prosecutor Sugiura, who was sitting in the prosecutor's seat, already had beads of sweat on his forehead.

No way, is it true that someone in Beika Town would kill someone in passion just for 1,000 yen?

Although I knew that the people of Beika Town were simple and free, I didn't expect it to be this way!

No, no, why is Detective Maori getting more and more off-topic?

The evidence that was not originally planned to be taken out was also dug out by Detective Maori.

We can't let him continue talking, otherwise the prosecution's secrets will be exposed!

"It is clear that according to the reasoning of Detective Maori, the circumstances of this case are clear at a glance."

"The murderer is undoubtedly Yamada Isamu and Kaga Ranmaru. They committed the crime together."

"One held down President Shimazu's body, and the other used a blunt instrument... uh, a blunt instrument to kill."

"The motive is clear and the logic is coherent. Does the defense have anything else to say?"

Prosecutor Sugiura interrupted Uncle Mori's reasoning by brushing her hair.

No matter what, when facing legendary lawyers like Gu Meimen and Xiang Yuanguang, the more you say, the more mistakes you make. Uncle Maori wanted to say more, but he saw Xiang Yuanguang had raised his hand.

"The defense is asking to move to the questioning phase."

Although the presiding judge felt that the case was very clear, he still had to respect Lawyer Xiang Yuan's words.

So the presiding judge nodded, banged the gavel, and spoke.

"Then please ask the defense to question Detective Maori regarding his testimony."

【~Inquiry Begins~】

Xiang Yuanguang's hand quietly grabbed the simple notes made by Yumizu Nanatsuki.

Then he took it away without any regard for the murderous look of Nanatsuki Koshimizu.

"Hmm... the defense is questioning the second statement made by the witness, [Then he went to the top floor of the company around 3pm to meet with President Shimadzu to discuss matters related to the commission.]"

"May I ask if the witness really arrived at the Shimadzu Real Estate Company building at 3:00 p.m. on the 24th, went to the top floor, and discussed matters related to the commission with President Shimadzu?"

Rather, he was used to being questioned or doubted by Xiang Yuanguang.

After all, this is the relationship between witnesses and lawyers in a courtroom.

Uncle Maori stroked his chin and spoke without thinking.

"Yes, I arrived at the first floor of Shimadzu Corporation at 3 pm on the 24th, then took the elevator to the top floor of the company and discussed matters related to the commission with President Shimadzu."

"Oh, so that's it..."

Xiang Yuanguang grabbed the simple transcript in his hand and patted the thin paper.

Then, he touched his chin and spoke with some confusion.

"Then, the [surveillance records] presented by the prosecution have been determined to be false."

"After all, Mr. Maori Kogoro clearly visited Shimadzu Real Estate Company at 3:00 p.m. on the 24th."

"But the surveillance records don't show that, do they?"

"Whoa!"

Prosecutor Sugiura was suddenly struck as if by a heavy blow, as she had just been concerned about Kogoro Mori's reasoning.

He didn't pay any attention to the content of the testimony that Kogoro Mori had just given.

The famous detective really said that he arrived at the top floor corridor at 3:00 p.m. on April 24th.

Also, did you have a conversation with President Shimadzu?

"This, this is all old news, I've let it go, no need to mention it again!"

"The defense, please don't dwell on this already resolved issue and waste time!"

"Waste of time, this is not a waste of time, Automatic Door Prosecutor."

Gu Meimen seized the opportunity and delivered a critical hit without hesitation.

"Shirai Kengo provided false testimony, which can also be confirmed from Detective Mori's words."

"In that case, the defense submitted another piece of evidence to Inspector Kengo Shirai that has not yet been displayed."

"Raise questions about [authenticity]!"

With a triumphant smile, Kumimon said.

"So, now, the defense requests that the prosecution present the evidence mentioned by the presiding judge..."

"[The account book that President Shimazu once read]!"

There are three more chapters, which will be posted one after another

Chapter 112 Reversal of Illumination (12)

"This, this kind of testimony, the prosecutor didn't know about it before!"

"Detective Maori, why didn't you tell me when you were testifying earlier?"

Prosecutor Sugiura was in a state of panic and looked at Uncle Mori.

However, Uncle Maori's eyes were even more puzzled than Prosecutor Sugiura's.

"What? I went to President Shimazu's office at 3pm? Don't you have surveillance records?"

"You didn't even let me elaborate on this information that can be seen through surveillance records?"

"But there is no—————— in the surveillance records."

At this moment, Prosecutor Sugiura finally reacted.

He thought that Detective Mori watched the surveillance records with Inspector Shirai when he was at Shimadzu Corporation.

In the end, I didn't ask any detailed questions about the commission, but who would have thought...

Detective Maori had never seen the surveillance footage and he had no idea about the situation in the surveillance footage.

However, he believed that if the police had surveillance records, there would be no need to single out the meeting at 3 p.m.

This... this lack of information exchange is really fatal...!

(Now, it seems that the account book has to be taken out, otherwise Kumimon will say something irrelevant again.)

(Why would the audience and the presiding judge listen to Kumimon's messy incitement?)

Prosecutor Sugiura looked grim and grabbed his hair with his hands.

Conan, who was sitting in the audience, didn't know if it was an illusion or what, but he noticed that Prosecutor Sugiura's hair was pulled.

"Alright... the prosecutor is presenting new evidence [the account book that President Shimazu once read]!"
