Chapter 107 Reversal of Illumination
Chapter 107 Reversal of Illumination (7)
After the presiding judge said this, Shirai Kengo's hand finally loosened.
Kumimon, who had been carried up, put his feet on the ground and his heart was at peace all of a sudden.
The ace lawyer's smile widened as he shifted his position and leaned against the testimony stand.
"Well, since the presiding judge said I was inciting, then fine, I take back what I said before."
"Everyone, just pretend you didn't see Inspector Shirai getting angry and trying to take action."
"You haven't heard me talk about the current situation of the case and what Inspector Shirai did before, okay?"
Hard, hard fist.
Inspector Shirai's hands had turned into fists, clenched tightly.
However, he couldn't do anything, at least not in the courtroom.
If he really attacked, then with this punch, Gu Meimen might be finished.
But Kengo Shirai is absolutely finished!
Trading his lifelong career as a detective for a punch from Kumimon? That's ridiculous!
"Calm down, Inspector Shirai, calm down! If you do this here, your career and the truth of this case will be over!"
Prosecutor Sugiura had noticed Shirai Kengo's flushed face.
He hurriedly tried to persuade her, but he didn't expect that Gu Meimen would just turn around gracefully and come to the prosecutor's desk.
The prosecutor and the lawyer looked directly at each other at this moment.
"What do you mean Inspector Shirai's career and the truth of this case are over?"
"Ha, from the moment you used a detective like Shirai Kengo who tortured people, arrested people on purpose, and used false evidence, the truth of this case is already revealed!"
Without waiting for Prosecutor Sugiura to respond, Kumimon placed his hand on the projector and turned it around instantly.
The images in the surveillance record switched instantly, and finally stopped at the time when Yamada Isamu and Kaga Ranmaru entered the corridor.
"Your Honor, the defense would like to present the testimony of the defendant Kaga Ranmaru in the detention center."
"His testimony can overturn the hypothesis and all the testimonies put forward by Shirai Kengo."
(Kaga Ranmaru made a special statement about this... for this frame?)
Xiang Yuanguang stared at the surveillance footage and then turned his attention to the blind spot in the surveillance - the emergency passage.
"So that's it..."
"What is this?"
Nanatsuki Koshimizu was a little confused, she didn't see anything special from this frame.
"When Yamada Isamu and Kaga Ranmaru entered the corridor on the top floor, Secretary Sanyuan happened to be in the corridor as well."
"Even if Secretary Sanyuan left from a blind spot in the surveillance... he should have appeared in the surveillance."
A glimmer of understanding flashed across Xiang Yuanguang's eyes.
The doubts in this piece of evidence were instantly resolved.
"This surveillance record has been edited and spliced and cannot be presented as evidence."
The hedgehog-haired lawyer said softly.
And Gu Meimen on the field also proposed this idea.
"When my client Kaga Ranmaru arrived at the top floor, he clearly saw——"
"The deceased's secretary, Sanyuan Shunji, is standing outside the office!"
"However, the most suspicious suspect in this case, Sanyuan Shunji, did not appear in the surveillance records."
Kumimon placed his hand on the table of the testimony desk, and he naturally looked up at Shirai Kengo, who was shaking with anger beside him.
"Excuse me, Inspector Shirai, why is this happening?"
Shirai Kengo opened his mouth to speak, but no words came out.
On the other side, Prosecutor Sugiura was already sweating profusely.
He never expected that there would be a veteran detective like Kengo Shirai.
When you submit a piece of evidence, it may be fake.
Fortunately, he was thoughtful at the time and did not submit it directly, but asked Shirai Kengo to do it.
Otherwise, even he would be kicked out of the court this time.
At this moment, Xiaolan, who was sitting in the audience, showed her small eyes.
She realized that now she didn't seem to be expected to prove that there was a problem with the surveillance records. Looking at Kumimon's figure, Xiaolan said subconsciously.
"Lawyer Kumimon is amazing, is this the strength of the top lawyers in different regions?"
Others in the gallery had already begun discussing various situations.
Although the presiding judge did not allow Kumimon to continue saying things like Shirai Kengo was committing dereliction of duty.
However, before the trial, lawyer Gu Meimen had already launched a public opinion offensive.
Everyone knows that Kengo Shirai obstructed the defendant's lawyer's investigation during the on-site investigation.
Now, Kengo Shirai has produced evidence that may be perjury in an attempt to prove the defendant's guilt.
No matter how you think about it, this guy Shirai Kengo doesn't seem like a good detective!
"Can such a guy still appear in the court as an interrogation expert?"
"That's right, they tortured and forced confessions, made subjective assumptions, and used false evidence... It's simply a disgrace to the judiciary!"
"He's such a scumbag among the detectives, he should have been kicked out of the Metropolitan Police Department long ago!"
Everyone in the audience has already started discussing Shirai Kengo.
Even though the presiding judge struck the gavel several times in a row, the crowd at the scene did not quiet down.
Conan, who was sitting next to Xiaolan, saw it clearly.
The testimony used by Kumimon was the testimony of the defendant, and its explanatory power is actually not very strong.
But once the human heart is opened, suspicion will arise.
Malice as strong as water will completely drown a person and leave no room for others to stand.
(This lawyer named Kensuke Kumimon's tactics are really...)
(Outside the courtroom, a public opinion campaign was launched to question Shirai Kengo's ability and integrity.)
(In court, they used discredited testimony to continually attack the authenticity of the surveillance footage.)
(So... if the presiding judge wants to calm the situation in the courtroom, there is only one option...)
Conan sighed.
The next moment, the gavel slammed heavily on the table.
"Silence, silence, this court requires silence!"
The chief judge looked at the smug Kumimon and couldn't help but take a deep breath.
Then, he had no choice but to speak.
"The surveillance records submitted by Detective Kengo Shirai appear to have been edited, so they do not have legal rights!"
"Now, this court declares this evidence invalid. Please ask the prosecutor to re-investigate the surveillance records after the recess!"
"Also, Detective Kengo Shirai, I hereby demand that you... leave the courtroom!"
Kengo Shirai's face was full of disbelief, and he slammed his fist hard on the table at the testimony desk.
"I didn't use false testimony. This is clearly the first-hand evidence I extracted from Shimadzu Corporation!"
"Your Excellency, how can you trust a suspect's words? He has a criminal record!"
"I……"
"Oh, so Inspector Shirai is going to use his favorite subjective assumptions and intuition again?"
Kumimon bent his body backwards and looked at Shirai Kengo's red face with a smile.
"Well, please tell me. You can tell whether a suspect has committed a crime just by looking at his eyes."
"Come on, I'll wait for you to say this again."
"You, you, you, I..."
Shirai Kengo was struck by lightning and retreated repeatedly.
My ears were filled with the questions and discussions of the people in the audience.
He turned around and looked at the people behind him in disbelief, his eyes full of disappointment.
In the end, Kengo Shirai didn't say anything else.
He grabbed the USB drive that contained the surveillance records and left the courtroom.
"The above is the entire opinion of the defense."
Attorney Gu Meimen then shook her hair and sat back in the defense seat.
