Chapter 106 Reversal of Illumination
Chapter 106 Reversal of Illumination (6)
"W-what? Is there actually such a possibility?"
There was a hint of surprise in the presiding judge's eyes.
Although the idea proposed to Yuan Guang sounds unrealistic, it is not impossible.
Because in reality there are some extremely powerful beings who can do this.
For example, the performance of All Japan Karate Champion Kyogoku Makoto that was previously broadcast on TV.
He once broke a big tree with three punches, and then broke the trunk and threw it away!
"Yes, that's right."
The hedgehog-head put his hands on his hips with a righteous look, picked up the coffee and took a sip.
In fact, he himself felt that this was impossible.
How can there be such powerful people in such a small place?
It's just a way to delay time.
"Objection! The defense's claim is nonsense. It's simply impossible!"
Prosecutor Sugiura stood up and objected loudly.
However, Xiang Yuanguang shook his head in denial and drank the coffee in his cup.
He returned to his seat under everyone's gaze.
The next moment, a white afterimage cut through the air——————
It’s Xiang Yuanguang’s coffee cup, Xiang Yuanguang’s coffee cup that has accelerated!
Click!
The presiding judge was shocked and thought Xiang Yuanguang was going to commit murder in court.
But I heard Xiang Yuanguang's next words.
"What do you mean I can't do it? I can do it."
Xiang Yuanguang stood at the defense table. He snapped his fingers and then pointed at the bailiff at the door.
he asked.
"Excuse me, I aimed at the trash can next to the entrance of the courtroom. Did I hit it?"
The bailiff who was asked was a little flustered, but he still looked at the trash can next to him.
Sure enough, inside were the fragments of the broken coffee cup that was thrown at Yuan Guang.
Without any need for aiming, just throw it casually——————
Did it hit the trash can exactly?!
"Report, report to the presiding judge, Attorney Xiang Yuan's coffee cup hit the trash can!"
The bailiff spoke up to prove it here.
"There is no comparison between this coffee cup and the murder weapon that has not yet been found at the time of the crime!"
"Both the mass and distance of the thrown object are far beyond what you can throw from a coffee cup to a trash can!"
Prosecutor Sugiura's hands, which were playing with his hair, suddenly sped up.
The presiding judge, who was originally somewhat moved by Xiang Yuanguang's words, finally reacted at this moment.
Well, as it stands now, this is indeed the case.
He shook his head, then banged his gavel.
"Please don't make such dangerous moves in the future, Attorney Xiang Yuan."
"After careful consideration, this court still believes that this is difficult to achieve."
"We reject the objection raised by Attorney Mugen against Inspector Kengo Shirai."
The presiding judge's words can be said to have put the final nail in the coffin of Xiang Yuanguang's doubts.
Shirai Kengo, who was originally a little emotional, finally reacted at this moment.
That was how he was misled by the damned Kumemon and gave unfavorable testimony.
If Xiang Yuanguang were to anger me again and give unfavorable testimony again.
I'm afraid that what awaits Kengo Shirai is another tragic defeat.
So, the old policeman chose to remain silent for the first time.
(Damn it, didn’t you get through it? And you’re using this as an excuse to replay the surveillance video in slow motion…)
Xiang Yuanguang touched the back of his head and gave an awkward smile.
But at this moment, Conan in the audience frowned.
Although at the time of the incident, he was not often seen by surveillance cameras due to his height.
He had not paid attention to the situation at the four corners of the corridor. However, he had already noticed the problems in the surveillance record.
"Sister Xiaolan, this is really strange... We went to Shimadzu Corporation at 3pm on the 24th, right?"
Conan couldn't hold back any longer and spoke.
Ran Mao Li, who was still frustrated about her failure to Yuan Guang, blinked.
She pointed her finger at her lower lip and recalled what happened yesterday.
Then, Xiaolan suddenly realized, and she said in surprise.
"Yes, we went to the corridor on the top floor of the company with Mr. Shimazu at 3 pm."
"Why is there no trace of us in the surveillance records?"
Conan pushed up his glasses, his eyes full of understanding.
If this evidence is authentic, then it is indeed impeccable evidence.
But the problem is... this evidence was forged.
Is it splicing, editing, or repeating the images?
It is difficult to determine the details without touching the actual object and relying solely on fast-playing surveillance records.
However, no matter which possibility it is, it means that this surveillance record... has no legal effect!
"Sister Xiaolan, please come to court to testify and tell Brother Xiangyuan that this is fake!"
"I saw Brother Yuan and his hedgehog head drooped when I thought about this fake surveillance record!"
Conan said this while holding the back of his head with both hands.
Xiaolan, who originally felt that this was not going to work, immediately became moved.
But just as Mao Lilan was about to stand up and question the authenticity of this evidence——
Gu Meimen has spoken.
"Ha, rookie lawyer, even though you look like Sonic, your idea is correct."
"There is indeed a blind spot in this surveillance record, and there is a loophole."
The smug uncle Kumemon came out. He naturally came to Shirai Kengo and turned around.
Then he shook his head and sighed.
"It's really hard for you, old man. You've finally managed to get your official position back and take away the credit for the young girl's work."
"In the end, the evidence I got was actually a fake one."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, what a shame, Inspector Shirai."
(BGM switch: LEGAL-HIGH)
The home field changed hands at this moment, and Gu Meimen easily shifted the focus of the entire stadium.
"Fake? What evidence do you have to prove that... this evidence is fake?"
Shirai Kengo's temper flared up all of a sudden.
I had previously told Yuanguang that there were blind spots in the surveillance records and that I could just buy time.
Why are you, Gu Meimen, becoming even more outrageous and saying that the surveillance records are fake as soon as you open your mouth?
"You mean to say that I fabricated false evidence in order to get the suspect convicted?"
"I'm a veteran detective with decades of experience. Don't I know whether or not to use fake evidence?!"
Inspector Shirai suddenly grabbed Kumimon's collar.
It looks like a fight is about to start.
Kumimon was startled at first, but immediately smiled his signature smile.
"Oh, yes, old detective shouldn't use false evidence, but he should torture people to get confessions, right?"
"If I suspect someone, I will pin the blame on him."
"Whether it's detaining someone for a hundred days, or forcing them to confess, or using false evidence—"
"All I have to do is ensure my 100% crime-solving rate, earn a reputation as an expert in interrogation, and get promoted and make a fortune, is that all?"
"This is the style of our old detectives. It's really detective-like, right?"
The whole place was in an uproar.
The presiding judge couldn't help but bang the gavel repeatedly as he spoke sternly.
"Inspector Shirai, please stop using violence and let go immediately, or you will be asked to leave the courtroom!"
"Lawyer Gu Meimen also stops incitement, otherwise, this court will impose punishment!"
