Chapter 135 Reversal of Illumination
Chapter 135 Reversal of Illumination (27)
That hedgehog head...
It seems that he is totally uninterested in me.
Asakura Mirei stood behind the testimony stand and she noticed Xiang Yuanguang's indifferent expression.
Does it mean that a person with a hedgehog hairstyle is also a hedgehog at heart?
"Okay, Your Honor, from now on, I will tell you everything I know about this case."
Asakura Mirei had a faint smile on her face, and the middle-aged presiding judge nodded repeatedly, then came to her senses after being glared at by Yuan Guang.
Compared to a beautiful girl who can make his heart beat, a lawyer who can make his heart beat physically is much more terrifying.
The middle-aged presiding judge shook his head, as if trying to shake all the unnecessary thoughts out of his mind, and then added.
"Ms. Asakura Mirei, I hope you know that Mr. Shimazu Sae testified yesterday."
"This testimony is mainly to supplement the details and circumstances of the case process. I hope you will be careful with your words and actions."
"Okay, please get started."
The middle-aged presiding judge picked up the gavel and knocked it gently.
(The testimony is finally about to begin, but the formula for victory has already been decided.)
(A real lawyer can catch every loophole at every moment, and even the loophole itself can be created by the lawyer himself!)
A gleam of light flashed in Xiang Yuanguang's eyes.
(The combination of skills that Kumimon and I have prepared will definitely give this guy an unexpected surprise!)
[~Testimony about the murder of President Shimazu~]
[Testimony begins]
"Sae-chan and I are... boyfriend and girlfriend."
"I've known for some time that the relationship between Sae and President Shimazu was strained."
"But I never thought it would end like this..."
"At 3pm on the 24th, Sae said she had found a famous detective in Tokyo and asked me to go meet them."
"Then around 4:30... Sae said she had something to do and left."
"I didn't expect that what I did was to kill President Shimazu..."
"Although I feel sad about this, I still choose to stand on the side of truth..."
[End of testimony]
Looking at Asakura Miling's weak appearance, the middle-aged presiding judge couldn't help but nod repeatedly.
"Mm, Ms. Asakura is such a gentle yet strong woman."
"If this court were faced with such a situation, I might not come to testify for this matter..."
Xiang Yuanguang at the defense table couldn't help but shake his head, feeling that the presiding judge was really unreliable.
However, there is no room for doubt about Asakura Mirei's current testimony, so let's proceed with the questioning first.
Well, the chief judge should announce the start of the questioning phase...
"Well, I think what the witness said makes sense. So, here, I declare that the island is——"
"A pound of pears! The defense hasn't even entered the [questioning phase] yet, what nonsense are you going to say?"
Without saying a word, Xiang Yuanguang slammed the table and stood up, and a strong wind blew out instantly.
The wind blew so hard that the middle-aged presiding judge couldn't open his eyes, and immediately woke him up.
"Ahem, Master Xiangyuan, don't be so excited. This court just wants to announce that Shimazu Sae is related to this case..."
"Anyway, please let the defense begin their questioning."
【~Inquiry Begins~】
(Current BGM: Xunwen~モデラート2001)
Xiang Yuanguang slammed the table, looked at Asakura Mirei who seemed frightened, and asked without hesitation.
"Please ask the witness to explain the second statement [I knew for some time that the relationship between Sae and President Shimazu was strained.] What is the reason for the relationship between Sae and President Shimazu to be like this?"
What was the reason? What else could it be? Both the defense and the witnesses knew it.
However, Asakura Mirei naturally would not tell the truth, she spoke softly.
"I think it's because of the money issue. After all, Sae's bank card was frozen by President Shimazu."
"Then, what was the reason that led to Shimazu Sae's bank card being frozen?" Xiang Yuanguang slammed his hands on the table and stated the reason behind it directly.
"Of course it's because Shimazu Sae is dating you, so President Shimazu stopped using that [bank card]!!!"
"What? But why? Miss Asakura is so beautiful and cute..."
The middle-aged presiding judge's face was full of surprise, and he began to ask further questions.
"If I were President Shimadzu, I would be happy to see my son have such an amazing girlfriend."
"Why would they ruin their relationship and even freeze their son's bank account?"
"Of course the reason is very simple, Judge. Have you forgotten what happened yesterday?"
Gu Meimen on the other side of the defense seat stood up and walked out of the defense seat naturally.
He came to the main judgement table and spoke rapidly.
"Detective Mori said that Asakura Mirei is a [remaining woman from the 3K era]. Doesn't the presiding judge know about the 3K era?"
"The 3K era was the era of the bubble economy. There was a rumor that women should have three purses."
"As the name suggests, it means having multiple potential boyfriends and letting them continue to devote themselves to you."
"But that was based on the bubble economy era when everyone had money, so men would make that choice."
"But Asakura Mirei was able to replicate the deeds of the 3K era in this era, and the result is self-evident."
Gu Meimen turned his head and looked at Asakura Mirei. He pointed at Asakura Mirei without caring at all that the other party was a woman.
"She is definitely not as pure and cute as she looks. That's why President Shimazu would do this."
"Because President Shimadzu is also an old entrepreneur who has lived from the 3K era to the present day!"
"This behavior is nothing more than to save his son. Is there anything difficult to understand?"
"But President Shimazu never thought that he would be killed by Asakura Mirei for this reason!"
(Oh, poor Shimazu Sae was played around by the bad woman.)
Prosecutor Sugiura at the prosecutor's seat was just giving up. He propped up his chin with both hands and just watched the show.
This matter has nothing to do with the prosecution anymore. We just need to watch the performance of the two lawyers.
The judge, who was already a little dizzy, blinked his eyes after hearing this conclusion.
How to put it, he didn't quite understand, but if it was about the decadent and decadent 3K era, he still had an impression of it.
If in this era, Asakura Mirei can still be as good as she was in the 3K era...that would be really amazing.
"Wait a minute! You are not allowed to bully Meiling! Meiling will never kill anyone!"
No one expected that Shimazu Sae would suddenly speak at this time.
He looked excited and said angrily.
"It was obviously me who killed him. I just remembered some details wrongly yesterday!"
Gu Meimen looked as if he had suddenly realized something. He nodded and said.
"Oh, is that so?"
"Yes, that's it!"
(Everything went according to plan.)
With the corners of his mouth raised to an imperceptible degree, Gu Meimen looked at Xiang Yuanguang on the other side.
Xiang Yuanguang picked up a cup of coffee from somewhere, took a sip, and then nodded.
"Then the defense requests that witness Shimazu Sae recount the murder process."
When Gu Meimen spoke like this, the middle-aged presiding judge was suddenly confused and didn't know what the defense was doing.
Generally speaking, it is the prosecutor who makes such a request.
However, as expected, Prosecutor Sugiura agreed without even looking up.
"The prosecutor agreed with the defense's claim and requested that Shimazu Sae recount the murder process."
The middle-aged presiding judge nodded and banged the gavel.
"Since the defense and the prosecution agree, the court agrees to this request."
"Please ask witness Shimazu Sae to recount the murder process in this case!"
