Chapter 102 Reversal of Illumination
Chapter 102 Reversal of Illumination (2)
—————April 26, 8:35 a.m. —————
————— Honichidai District, District Court —————
Boom, boom, boom.
The chief judge of Honchidai banged the gavel.
"Silence, silence, this court requires silence."
"Now, this court will hear the case of the murder of President Shimazu."
"Please ask the bailiff to notify the lawyers and defendants to come to the courtroom and prepare for the trial."
The audience in the gallery fell silent.
Conan, who had arrived at the courtroom early and sat in the first row of the gallery, was somewhat disappointed with the court.
(It seems that the scale is not as large as the Tokyo Court, and there are only about 20 people in the audience.)
(This judge has thick black hair and looks about the same age as Uncle Maori. He does not look very dignified.)
(The prosecutor on the other side looks very unlucky and has a low sense of presence...)
The Shinigami elementary school student sighed, finding it completely boring.
When it comes to reasoning, the case must be interesting so that he can feel a sense of accomplishment.
As for the defense, it should be the same. If there are not many people in the gallery, Xiang Yuanguang probably won't feel a sense of accomplishment?
In this case, the hedgehog-head who relies on his aura for survival will not be able to exert his full strength.
"Conan, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"
Ran Mao Li noticed the look of the elementary school student who was a god of death next to her, and she asked with concern.
"Well, I shouldn't have brought you to the courtroom to listen to the case. After all, you are still a child."
"If you feel uncomfortable, just tell me and I'll take you back to the hotel, okay?"
(Uh, how can I go back to the hotel at this time? I have to listen to the prosecutor's evidence, right?)
Faced with his girlfriend's concern, Conan chose to play dumb.
"Hey, how could that be? I was wondering why Uncle Maori hasn't shown up yet?"
"I remember Uncle Maoli said he wanted to be the key witness in this case and point out the real culprit, right?"
"I love watching Uncle Maori's mystery show the most!"
(I don’t like it. In the end, I still have to say it myself.)
Conan pretended to be stupid but complained in his heart.
However, what Conan didn't expect was that Mao Lilan was a little surprised.
"Ah? You like dad's mystery show...?"
"I always feel like he was just sleeping around at the crime scene... and then someone dubbed him..."
Mao Lilan tapped her chin lightly and fell into thought.
"Well, come to think of it, every time dad starts to reason in his sleep, Conan disappears..."
(Ah? How did this get to me?)
Every time Conan encounters something related to Xiaolan, his brain will short-circuit inexplicably.
He said hurriedly.
"How, how could that be? Wasn't I watching while uncle was reasoning?"
"It's just that I'm too short. If Sister Xiaolan doesn't go looking for me, she won't be able to see me!"
"Is...is that so?"
The gullible Miss Mao Lilan showed her small eyes.
"I'm so sorry, Conan, I will pay attention to you next time!"
(No, if you keep staring at me, I will be ruined...)
Conan laughed dryly. Even though he felt bad about it, at least he got through it.
Really, although Lan is very naive, she doesn't really know nothing.
Crunch——————
The door of the courtroom was pushed open.
Then, there was the sound of footsteps, tap, tap, tap.
Conan and Xiaolan's attention was attracted.
Because the prosecutor of this court, Sugiura, has arrived earlier, the only one who can come in now is the defense lawyer.
"Conan, look, Lawyer Xiang Yuan is coming in... coming in?"
Mao Lilan's small eyes are still the same as always.
At this moment, even Conan next to him subconsciously took off his glasses and rubbed his eyes with his hands.
How come the man and woman who came in look different from Mukai Genmitsu and Koshimizu Nanatsuki?
Is this a change of in-game skin? No no no, how can I change my skin in real life? "Oh, it seems that everyone has been waiting for my appearance for a long time, right?"
A middle-aged man in a black suit was saying strange things, and he was with the girl next to him...a female lawyer.
Arriving at the defense table, Prosecutor Sugiura's eyebrows visibly twitched.
How should I put it? I was sweating profusely.
That’s… the undefeated lawyer legend, Kumimon!
"Hey, Prosecutor Sugiura, I didn't even notice you when I came in just now. I'm so sorry."
"Oh, the last time we met was about the case of Inspector Shirai abusing his power, right? I didn't expect that we would meet again so soon. Have the automatic doors been able to detect your presence lately?"
Gu Meimen said with a grin.
He was very confident in his defense of this case because the person sitting opposite Gumei was Prosecutor Sugiura.
Just like Kujo Reiko to Kisaki Eri, Sugiura was always defeated when facing him!
"How, how should I put it? The automatic door will open automatically, no detection is needed..."
Prosecutor Sugiura swallowed and spoke nervously.
It can be seen that Prosecutor Sugiura is already a little overwhelmed when facing Kumimon.
"Oh, long time no see, Attorney Kumemon. I still remember your defense of the game last time."
The presiding judge also recognized Attorney Gu Meimen and greeted him.
This immediately shocked Conan and Mao Lilan who were sitting in the audience again.
Ran Mouri asked in a low voice to Conan beside her.
"Conan, who is this lawyer Kumimon? Why does he seem so powerful..."
"Is he a legendary lawyer like Attorney Xiang Yuan? He has a good relationship with the prosecutor and the presiding judge."
Conan couldn't help but type a question mark.
How do you know that Attorney Kumimon and Prosecutor Sugiura have a good relationship?
It can't be a relationship of love and being loved, right?
He whispered back as the Shinigami student shook his head.
"I don't know either. It seems like she's a famous lawyer like Aunt Eri Kisaki."
"A great lawyer...if he's like mom, then he must be a very powerful person!"
Mao Lilan clenched her fists and said seriously.
"But if it's Attorney Xiang Yuan, he will definitely not be worse than Attorney Gu Meimen!"
"Especially the Wind Demon of Lawyer Xiang Yuan——"
Before he finished speaking, the wind began to howl.
Wearing a classic blue coat with a lawyer's medal on his collar.
The hedgehog-headed lawyer Xiang Yuanguang made a dignified appearance, and his momentum instantly reached its peak.
Prosecutor Sugiura, who was already sweating profusely, broke out in a cold sweat when he saw Xiang Yuanguang appear.
(No, really? I, I hit Minamoto-Kamikaze? Really?)
His hands were shaking as he placed the court records on his desk.
Now, the world is so cruel and indifferent, and only this court record can bring him a little warmth.
"You must be lawyer Xiang Yuanguang, please take a seat at the defense table."
Overwhelmed by Xiang Yuanguang's aura, the presiding judge spoke nervously.
But immediately, he reacted.
That’s not right. I’m the presiding judge. Why should I be nervous? Can Xiang Yuanguang send me to the dock?
The presiding judge shook his head to sober himself up a little.
Afterwards, the bailiff brought Kaga Ranmaru and Yamada Isamu into the dock.
The presiding judge immediately raised the gavel, slammed the table, and declared.
"This court declares that the case of President Shimazu's murder will be tried here!"
