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

As he listened to Shimazu Sae's words, he began to think rapidly in his mind.

If Shimazu Sae didn't do it, then who else could have done it?

Could it be Shimazu Sae's rumored girlfriend, Asakura Mirei?

However, Asakura Mirei is considered to have nothing to do with the case.

Whether it's surveillance records or evidence...there is nothing that can prove that she is related to this case.

Xiang Yuanguang hesitated, but finally he opened his mouth to ask.

"So, where is your father's authority key?"

"do not know."

"do not know?"

“My father never told me where he kept his things.”

Shimazu Sae pushed aside the red wine and poured it into his own glass.

Then, his eyes rested on Xiang Yuanguang's wine glass.

Realizing that Shimazu Sae might want to pour him some wine, Genmitsu Xiang quickly covered the glass with his hand.

These days, there are still adults who don't drink.

Shaking his head, Shimazu Sae didn't say anything, but just talked to himself.

"Maybe in my father's eyes, I will always be a person who fails to live up to expectations, and he even suspects that I have something to do with the running water."

"He also sent that famous detective from Tokyo to investigate me. Haha, he's still watching me outside now."

"...?"

Xiang Yuan turned his head and, sure enough, there was Uncle Maori behind the big tree outside the store.

But this time, I didn’t see Ran Mouri and Conan following them. I don’t know why.

However, this tracking ability is too poor. I was actually discovered by the target.

"Anyway, just assume that I used the permission key to modify the surveillance records."

"This is all fine and good. There is no need to continue."

Shimazu Sae took a sip of red wine. He was feeling a little depressed and looked at Mouri Kogoro outside.

Then, Shimazu Sae gave a bitter smile and shook his head.

"Just consider it my commission. After the trial is over, the commission fee will be deposited into your account."

"Of course, I didn't transfer the money myself, but in the name of Shimadzu Corporation's commission."

"So what do you want to do? Turn yourself in? Did you kill the person? Can you give me a straight answer?"

Xiang Yuanguang, who was still unsure whether Shimazu Sae was telling the truth, became a little anxious.

He only needed a positive response to confirm whether Shimazu Sae had killed anyone.

Before it was confirmed, Xiang Yuanguang was not sure whether he would face the same situation as his teacher————

He was faced with the situation of defending a guilty person who was pretending to be innocent, like Wang Dulou Shingo.

Xiang Yuanguang was very clear that he was a lawyer with strong inflammatory power like Gu Meimen.

If we keep moving forward in one direction, even an innocent person can be found guilty, and a guilty person can be found innocent.

Therefore, one must use one's talent as a lawyer with caution.

"Anyway, I'm tired, so let's just end it like this."

"Goodbye, Lawyer Xiang Yuan."

"and many more!"

Xiang Yuanguang stood up with a bang, and a chessboard that only he could see suddenly appeared around him.

Logical chess——————However, Shimazu Sae did not look back at him, nor did she answer any of his questions.

Instead, he just left like that. Even logical chess cannot be played without an object.

"Why are you trying to be cool, one by one..."

The hedgehog-haired lawyer suddenly sighed and sat back in his seat.

Looking at the table full of dishes and listening to my hungry stomach growling.

Shaking his head, he thought, now that things have come to this, he should eat first.

At this time, Uncle Maori, who was disguised as a passerby outside, saw what was happening inside.

Especially when he saw the big and handsome lawyer Xiang Yuanguang, he couldn't help but feel extremely envious.

He hasn't eaten yet, why did little Xiang Yuan eat first?

Before Uncle Maori could take a closer look, Shimazu Sae had already swiped her card at the counter and walked out of the restaurant.

He turned to look at where Uncle Maori was and shook his head.

Dong————

Shimazu Sae got into his car and calmly let the driver drive.

Seeing this, Kogoro Mouri became anxious and quickly stopped a taxi to catch up.

—————April 26, 9:15 p.m.——————

—————Hotel, Xiang Yuanguang's room——————

Xiang Yuanguang walked up the stairs in a daze.

He came to the door of his room, but heard conversation and laughter from inside.

I couldn't help wondering, and then I gently pushed the door open————

It was Arita Ryosuke and others who were sitting together playing cards.

"...?"

When I type a question mark, it doesn’t mean that I have a problem, but that I think you have a problem.

Why are Ran Mouri and Conan also in their own room?

Could it be that Ryosuke Arita and his friends were playing cards and were short of one person, so they asked someone to come over to make up the number?

Conan, who was sitting at the card table and could only watch, noticed the slight friction sound of the door.

He tiptoed to the door and whispered.

"Xiang Yuan, let's go out and talk."

When he arrived at the corridor, Xiang Yuanguang was too lazy to stand, so he simply sat on the ground, leaning against the wall.

It looks like he is about the same height as Conan who is standing next to him.

The hedgehog-haired lawyer gently stroked his lawyer's medal.

Then, he asked calmly.

"Conan, what's going on?"

Edogawa Conan was a little surprised because he knew that the Hedgehog-Head would never be listless under normal circumstances.

Except for the time when I stayed up for two consecutive nights without sleep on Moon Shadow Island.

However, Conan didn't ask any more questions because he knew it.

For a stubborn person like Xiang Yuanguang, no setbacks can completely defeat him.

"The person that Uncle Mori is following might be Shimazu Sae!"

"Oh."

"The surveillance video may have been modified more than once!"

"Ah."

"The real murderer may not be Shimazu Sae, but someone else!"

"Correct."

"Why the hell? Why are you so indifferent to what I say?"

"Because I already know it."

Two men, one big and one small, in blue suits sat outside and discussed the case.

Until Mao Lilan put notes all over the faces of other people in one breath.

Only then did he notice that Conan next to him was missing.

"Really? Where did Conan go again? Conan? Conan?"

Mao Lilan pushed the door open with some panic, and then saw two people leaning against the wall and chatting deeply.

I don’t know why, but it’s better not to disturb them now.

So, Mao Lilan closed the door and locked the owner of the room out...!

When it was midnight and the night was quiet, Xiang Yuanguang finally returned to his faithful guest room.

He stood by the window, looking at the quiet city under the moonlight.

I don't know why my heart calmed down.

"Asakura Mirei...what kind of person is she?"

Whispering to Yuan Guang.

Chapter 125 Reversal of Illumination (20)

—————April 27, 8:20 a.m.——————

—————Main Ikedai Place, Court of Justice——————

Coming out of the lounge, Kumimon's expression was quite unfriendly.

He exchanged glances with Xiang Yuanguang who had just arrived at the courtroom.

Then, with a cold snort, he took Dai Machiko to the courtroom.

Xiang Yuanguang had no intention of expressing any opinion on this.

He lightly tapped the earphone next to his ear, which was easily overlooked.

drop.

The red light began to flash and the headset was activated.

On the other side, Conan Edogawa, who was still in the hotel room, began to connect to his mobile phone through the headset program.

Now he can hear the sounds near Xiang Yuanguang synchronously and transmit the information to Xiang Yuanguang through headphones.

Originally, Conan had the idea of ​​going to the courtroom's gallery with Mouri Ran.

However, after thinking about it, Conan simply chose to play a supporting role in this way.

It would be absurd if a criminal case was closed with an innocent person being charged.

"Xiang Yuan, I've been curious since just now, what are you doing with those headphones on your ears...?"

Nanatsuki Koshimizu quietly refreshed behind Yuanguang Xiang, her eyes fixed on Yuanguang Xiang's headphones.

Although she herself was wearing headphones, that was just a disguise to lighten her mood.

But why do headphones like Xiang Yuanguang's look like the type that have communication capabilities?

"Nothing, I just asked a friend for help."

The hedgehog-headed lawyer was vague and did not elaborate.

He watched as the bailiffs walked by with Yamada Isamu and Kaga Ranmaru, heading to the courtroom.

He immediately took out the lawyer's badge from his pocket and buckled it on his collar.
