Chapter 101 Reversal of Illumination

Chapter 101 Reversal of Illumination (1)

—————April 26, 8:30 a.m. —————

—————Main Ikedai Courtroom, Lounge——————

(Current BGM: Fatei Rest Room ~ Hajime Overture)
I don't know why, from the moment I entered the courtroom.

The music in Xiang Yuanguang's ears never stopped.

Uh, according to the triggering conditions of this skill, does it mean that it starts from entering the Tribunal?

Is this always his home turf, so the BGM is played on a loop?
But what Xiang Yuanguang cares about now is not...

The courtroom here is too small and there is only one lounge.

Mukai Genmitsu, Koshimizu Nanatsuki, and Yamada Isamu are sitting here.

Gu Meimen, Dai Machiko, and Kaga Ranmaru were sitting over there.

It seems that two lawyers who don't get along well with each other now have to appear in court together to defend the case.

"Lawyer Xiang Yuan, the trial is about to begin. I heard that the prosecutor on the other side is very powerful this time..."

Yamada Yong looked very nervous, as if he had heard something in the detention center.

He looked around and then spoke cautiously.

"It is said that it is the prosecutor Sugiura who has been gaining fame in the court recently!"

"In the three years since Attorney Gu Meimen retired, he has achieved a three-year undefeated record!"

"I'm really worried that he will find me guilty!"

Uh, what does it mean that Kumimoto has been undefeated for three years since his retirement?

Xiang Yuanguang was a little confused. He touched his chin and asked tentatively.

"This prosecutor Sugiura you're talking about, does he wear a [wig]?"

"Are there any twin brothers who look exactly the same?"

"...?"

Yamada Yong's eyes were full of confusion.

"I don't think so. At least I haven't heard of Prosecutor Sugiura having a twin brother."

"If it's a wig, maybe...?"

(Oh, then it's not Prosecutor Yane. I guess I still need to be more careful.)
He nodded secretly to Yuan Guang.

He looked at the clock hanging in the lounge and saw that it was almost time for the court to begin.

This meeting was extremely brief, but the courtroom lounge was not a place to stay for long.

The actual communication about the case and discussion of all matters took place in the detention center’s rooms.

This is just a place for lawyers and clients to determine tactics and stabilize morale before the trial.

"...Okay, wait, you will be found not guilty today, I said!"

On the other side, Kumimon's voice came.

He looked over here with Dai Machiko, then snorted coldly.

"Hedgehog Head, this time I'll let you follow my pace and win a game, but don't hold me back!"

"New lawyer, let's go, the court is about to start!"

As Kumimon's legal assistant, Dai Machiko bowed towards this side with an apologetic look.

Then she hurriedly caught up with Gu Meimen in her high heels.

Looking at Dai Machiko's back, he narrowed his eyes at Yuan Guang.

Nanatsuki Koshimizu who was standing next to him noticed that the attention was shifted towards Genkou and became curious.

"What's wrong, Master? What special things are you paying attention to now?"

"I noticed that Machiko Dai was wearing high heels, but she could walk very fast..."

"The last time I saw someone like this was on Moon Shadow Island."

To be more precise, it is Ma Shengshi who is a man dressed as a woman.

That guy can run very fast even in high heels, and if he had run slower, he wouldn't have become a suspect.

(Hmm… I don’t know where Masashi is now, but it shouldn’t be a big problem.)
"Master, are you trying to claim that Dai Machiko is actually an adult male dressed as a woman?"

Nanatsuki Koshimizu also thought of Asanari Minoru running fast on Tsukikage Island, and followed the idea of ​​Genmyou.

She said so, and then she laughed at her own reasoning and shook her head helplessly.

"Well, how is that possible? There won't be another man as extraordinary as Dr. Chengshi."

"Master, is it really okay for you two lawyers not to exchange evidence before the case occurs?"

Carrying his worn-out backpack, Xiang Yuanguang raised the corner of his mouth into a confident arc.

"Of course, whatever evidence Kumimon can find, I can certainly get as well." "There's no need to exchange too much, the final conclusions are the same anyway!"

"It's almost time, let's go."

Finally, he turned to look at Yamada Yong and reiterated what he had said in the detention center before.

"Mr. Yamada, you must tell the truth in court, so that I can ensure your innocence."

(If you lie and cause me to trigger the heart lock by mistake, I will beat your head off when I come back.)
Swallowing his saliva, Yamada Yong nodded nervously.

Boom——————

The door to the courtroom lounge was closed.

Seeing Yamada Isamu's nervous look, Kaga Ranmaru was much more relaxed.

He even had the mood to pick up the box of grapes that Machiko Dai brought him.

Slowly picked one and put it in your mouth.

"Mm, the grapes grown by Uncle Hattori are just so delicious!"

The modern Kaga Ninja walked to Yamada Isamu with a smile and tore half of the grapes in his hand and gave them to Yamada Isamu.

"Come on, try it and see if it tastes good."

Although Yamada Yong was not hungry, he was still tempted by the color of the grapes.

Finally, thinking that it would be a waste not to make a profit from the bargain, Yamada Yong took the grapes and picked one as well.

The moment the grape was bitten, his eyes lit up.

Sure enough, the grapes tasted just as Kaga Ranmaru had said.

"The bailiff will be here soon. Before they leave, I want to say a few words to Uncle Yamada."

Kaga Ranmaru picked a few more grapes and put them in his mouth.

He spoke incoherently while chewing.

"Lawyer Gu Meimen has mobilized public opinion outside and will bring the real murderer to the court."

"When the time comes, we just need to wait for the acquittal."

"However, we still need to be a little more careful when it comes to testimony."

While eating grapes, Yamada Yong suddenly became alert.

"You, you don't want me to commit perjury, do you?"

"No, no, no, I'm not asking you to perjure yourself. I'm just asking you to think carefully about it."

Stuff all the remaining grapes into your mouth and finish them in one go.

Kaga Ranmaru smiled and whispered into Yamada Isamu's ear.

"Do you remember? That middle-aged man looked very panicked..."

(Looks very flustered... I guess.)
Yamada Isamu nodded, still not understanding what Kaga Ranmaru was trying to say.

"That guy is actually a thief who stole confidential documents and is the real murderer in this case."

"Lawyer Gu Meimen has told me the whole truth."

After Kaga Ranmaru said this, Yamada Isamu's eyes were full of confusion.

What? The real murderer is that thief? But... Attorney Xiang Yuan said it might be President Shimazu's son?

However, the document that Kaga Ranmaru mentioned...it seems like, it seems like that middle-aged man has something in his hand...right?

"…Are you saying that the middle-aged man was caught stealing documents, so he panicked?"

Because the shock of seeing the corpse last night was quite great, Yamada Yong's memory of this aspect is not very clear.

But after Kagaranmaru said this, the memory scene seemed to become clear again.

"Well, what the thief was holding was a folder, right? Just tell us that when the time comes."

With a smile on his face, Kaga Ranmaru was relaxed.

"Our interests are one. As long as you say the same as I do, Attorney Gu Meimen will take care of the rest."

"Well, although Attorney Mugen is very famous, but, Kumimon is the undefeated legend, right?"

Crunch————————

Two bailiffs pushed open the door of the lounge and looked at the two suspects who were sitting together and seemed to have a good relationship.

He couldn't help but shook his head, then spoke.

"The court has begun hearing the case of the murder of the president of Shimadzu Real Estate Co., Ltd."

"Please appear in court as the defendant in this case."
