Chapter 173: Reversal of the Express, the Silver Star on the road to destruction (24)
"Ahem, when did this table collapse?"
Xiang Yuanguang managed to keep his balance with great difficulty and stood up on his knees.
The thoughts that I had just organized were almost disrupted by this accident.
He shook his head quickly, and then the hedgehog-haired man pointed at Caiya Yusaburo without hesitation.
"That's right, the defense is presenting a new witness here!"
"This witness will [reverse] all of Saiga Yusaburo's claims!"
Present new witnesses? At this time?
Yacai Yusaburo's eyelids twitched.
Is this true or false? Is this going to reverse all my claims?
Are you going to bring the deceased out to testify in court?
"Okay, since the defense still has witnesses to present, then this court will also accept the defense's request."
"However, the trial of this case has come to the final stage——"
The presiding judge looked at Xiang Yuanguang at the defense table and said seriously.
"Because time is running out, you are only allowed to present a witness once."
"If the witnesses you present are irrelevant to the case or do not bring new insights to the case."
"This court will punish you——end this trial."
"Lawyer Xiang Yuan, have you decided who to name as the last witness in this court?"
(To be honest, I haven’t thought about it yet and I don’t have a partner.)
(But if I use bluffing, maybe I can trick that person out?)
Xiang Yuanguang looked at Phoenix Wright next to him.
The legendary lawyer from the American version of Ace Attorney smiled and nodded.
"My friend, just go for it. Even I have no other choice at this moment."
"Tell us everything you know if the man was there."
"No, that person must be there, just tell him."
"With your talent, it will be no problem to find him out."
I hope so, if that person is really on this Silver Star train.
Xiang Yuanguang's eyes became firm.
At this moment, his aura changed drastically.
Everyone could sense that the lawyer was completely serious.
The strong momentum even forced Gui Yueying to log out of the simulated scene.
Yamato Yoshisaburo continued to increase the speed at which he pressed the frame of his black-tech glasses.
Beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep.
(Is this guy just bluffing, or has he really found the last witness?)
(Damn it, I should have gone to look for Gale, but this guy kept me in the temporary court.)
(My current preparations are seriously inadequate. Will that guy really be pointed out by Xiang Yuanguang?)
(No, no, no, even if I really point it out, it’s useless…)
A glimmer of understanding flashed across Caiya Yusaburo's eyes.
He had already sorted out the current situation, and it was obvious that it would be useless even if he pointed out the witnesses to Yuan Guang.
Because Xiang Yuanguang definitely had no evidence to prove that the witness was involved in this case.
Haha, just pointing it out can make the witness break down and confess?
(I don’t believe there is such a thing in this world.)
(You are just a hedgehog head, don’t you realize that this is my victory?)
The United States elite prosecutor, Yasaburo, relaxed his grip.
He has already secured victory.
He had no idea, as long as Xiang Yuanguang found out who the last witness was.
Then, Hedgehog Head has already grasped the final victory of this defense.
"I want this [last witness] to testify in court, and I need Mr. Liebnand's help."
"Of course, Mr. Libnand doesn't need to do anything, just Mr. Libnand and I need to talk."
Xiang Yuanguang gently tapped the center of his forehead with his fingers, and then spread out his hands.
He looks sure of victory and very confident.
Phoenix next to him stared at Xiang Yuanguang's gesture, thoughtfully.
"I... me? Okay, if I can find the truth of the case." "Please ask, Lawyer Xiang Yuan, I will tell you everything I know."
Habri Libnand nodded.
At this time, Xiang Yuanguang started by asking a question that made people wonder, "Is it even possible to ask this?"
He asked, saying so.
"Mr. Liebnand, you are sure that every crew member on the Silver Star train."
"They are all your confidants and your subordinates. Do you trust them absolutely?"
Frowning, Libnand couldn't understand why Xiang Yuanguang asked this.
He spoke as a matter of course.
"Of course. Every flight attendant here believes that I am innocent and follows me voluntarily."
"He came to Japan from the Narikin Republic and helped me break out of prison, build the Silver Star, and plan the Mobile Court of Inquisition."
"I can assure you that every flight attendant here is trustworthy."
"……Really?"
He asked softly with an unfathomable smile towards Yuan Guang.
Suddenly, many flight attendants on the field were shocked, and then many of them became angry.
Do not think that you can question the loyalty of the householder by defending him.
In order to let the owner of the house get away with it, is it necessary to use a flight attendant as a scapegoat?
At this moment, Habri Libnand shook his head firmly.
“Yes, that’s it——————”
"Then how did your pistol [lose]?"
The hedgehog-headed man's next question left Habri Libnand speechless.
A pistol is a key item that you carry with you and should never be accessible to others.
In order to steal Habri Libnand's pistol, one must be someone Libnand trusts.
In other words, his words just now have been self-defeating.
Xiang Yuanguang's mouth corners curled up slightly, and he stretched out his finger and tapped the center of his forehead.
"Someone you trusted stole your pistol and sold it to the police department of the United States."
"That led to this big drama of frame-up - that person is here now."
Now...right here?
Many flight attendants looked at each other, not knowing who Xiang Yuanguang was referring to.
Even Habri Libnand's expression became unprecedentedly serious.
"If you say that the betrayer is here, I think that's impossible."
"If that guy had colluded with the police department to frame me and put me in jail, then there was no need for him to help me escape from prison."
"Don't you think your assumption is contradictory?"
(Is it contradictory? Indeed... If there was a betrayal, why would it appear on the Silver Star?)
Xiang Yuanguang's eyes flickered, and he was thinking about the answer to this question very quickly.
Next to him, the shadow of Phoenix Wright touched his chin and spoke thoughtfully.
"Reverse your thinking again, Xiang Yuan."
"[Stealing the gun] doesn't mean [framing Liebnand to jail]."
"What if this flight attendant is truly [loyal] and is just being taken advantage of?"
(Really? Is there such a possibility? His thinking is so unconventional that it is beyond the reach of ordinary people!)
Xiang Yuanguang was startled and glanced at Phoenix Wright beside him.
Then, without hesitation, he spoke again.
Continuing with the previous words.
"That's not necessarily true, Mr. Liebnand. If you say——"
"Is that person really loyal to you?"
There is another chapter, I will write it later
