Chapter 243: Final Adjournment of the Hongmen Banquet
Chapter 243 Final Adjournment - Hongmen Banquet
—————May 10, 2:25 p.m.——————
—————Shikoku area, inns——————
"Give your court a summons. If I were you, I wouldn't go."
"There is no doubt that tonight's emergency trial is definitely a Hongmen Banquet."
"The other party's goal is no longer simply to determine whether you are guilty or not, but to get rid of this trouble of yours."
Place the court summons in your hand on the table.
Mr. Makoto, whom Nanatsuki Koshimizu had never seen before, was standing in the hotel room at this moment.
He was a middle-aged man who looked majestic without being angry, with gray hair on his temples.
He was wearing an old-fashioned suit and a silver pendant... a symbol of an eye.
His full name is Iga Makoto, the leader of a secret intelligence organization in Shikoku.
During the old Ministry of Justice era, the then Minister of Justice asked Minamoto Seidō for help.
Therefore, as soon as Xiang Yuanguang arrived in Shikoku, Iga Makoto contacted Xiang Yuanguang.
Now, knowing the relationship with the second trial, he came to see Xiang Yuanguang in person.
"Why did you suddenly want to wade into the muddy waters of the Shikoku region?"
"Besides, you disappeared for three years. I thought you had given up being a lawyer."
"Actually, there's nothing wrong with being a prosecutor like your father."
"Master Zhengtang's connections will help you get a..."
Iga Makoto held the coffee cup and took a sip of it.
Then, his expression changed instantly, as if to say, "What the hell is this?"
"What kind of coffee is this? Why does it taste like this?"
"Do you like this kind of coffee now?"
(Well, I just saw the sale when I passed by the supermarket and bought a lot.)
(I think it’s pretty good. Uh… maybe it’s because I’ve only had this kind of coffee.)
Hearing Iga Makoto's words, he gave Minamitsu an awkward smile and touched the thorn on the back of his head.
Then he became serious and looked through the trial documents in his hand.
The above content is simple and clear.
[May 10, 8:30 p.m.]
[The final hearing of the Lavender Villa murder case was held in the Third Trial Court]
[Defense lawyers are requested to attend the appointment on time, otherwise it will be deemed as giving up this trial]
"Uncle Cheng, isn't it the three-day trial system that Grandpa is promoting?"
"This way, the trial on the third day will be moved to the night of the second day for public trial..."
"Is there really no problem?"
The hedgehog-haired lawyer narrowed his eyes, somewhat puzzled.
Then, without the need for Iga Makoto beside him to explain, he knew the answer himself.
"Haha, that's right. The news outside is all over the place now."
"It's impossible for him to use this case to get promoted. He can only ensure victory first."
"Wait until the final result of the trial comes out, and let the matter sit still for a while, and then it will naturally be resolved."
"It seems like you've figured it out. After these three years, you really give me a different feeling."
Iga Makoto nodded and was about to pick up the coffee cup to take another sip.
Then he hesitated, put the coffee cup down again, and then spoke.
"I remember you said after you arrived at Moon Shadow Island that the most unwise thing to do was to do it yourself."
"I didn't expect that people would go to this extent just because of a stranger."
"Gui Yue's strength is actually not bad, but he is too old and is in a hurry to pave the way for his daughter..."
"Forget it, forget about all that. You should have met the director of the Shikoku District Prosecutors Office, right?"
Nodding to Yuan Guang, he stroked his chin and thought for a moment.
The Chief Prosecutor of the Shikoku region has long been unhappy with Guiyue Liuyun.
Because this guy went to Tokyo to gain experience, his purpose was to take a step further towards the position of chief prosecutor.
There are only two positions above the Chief Prosecutor: Deputy Director and Director, so his thoughts are self-evident.
What Baosheng Lidou meant was that only if the trial was dragged to the third day would the prosecutor recognize his ability.
So as to help him get rid of Guiyue Liuyun, but unfortunately... the Chief Prosecutor was originally one of the connections that Xiang Yuanzhengtang left for Xiang Yuanguang.
Therefore, he had already met with the Attorney General in the afternoon of the first day.
(If everything goes according to plan, even if it is an emergency trial, it will be my victory.)
(It's a pity that Mizuguchi Kana will be acquitted...)
A hint of doubt suddenly appeared in the hedgehog-headed man's eyes.
(What a pity?)
"Since you have already come into contact with that guy, you should be 100% sure, Xiang Yuan..."
"Before you leave, I want to warn you, although you have your grandfather's style, but..."
"Next time, try to make less noise. There are not always people who can help you."
Iga Makoto patted Xiang Yuanguang on the shoulder and said so, regardless of the other's embarrassed expression.
He left the room directly, looked back at Nanatsuki Koshimizu who was leaning against the wall, and shook his head helplessly.
Then, he walked decisively towards the corner of the hotel corridor.
Tick, tick, tick.
With the sound of footsteps, Mr. Cheng walked further and further away.
At this moment, Nanatsuki Koshimizu made up her mind and pushed the door open.
Under Xiang Yuanguang's puzzled gaze, the young female detective came up to him seriously.
"Xiang Yuan, I discovered something very important!"
"?"
What? Is there something important that I don't know?
Xiang Yuanguang was shocked and asked immediately.
"What is it?"
The young detective closed the door carefully, then spoke in a low voice.
"I noticed that you seem to be ill."
"……what?"
Three question marks seemed to appear above the hedgehog's head.
His doubts were visible to the naked eye.
Am I sick? Really? How come I don’t know?
Yue Shui, you are still a doctor!
"I find that your thinking mode always changes suddenly at a certain time."
"It's like he's become a completely different person. Didn't you notice that?"
"Besides, you mentioned to me before that you don't remember many things from the past due to amnesia..."
Koshimizu Nanatsuki said seriously and earnestly.
"But, during the trial, you told me that your grandfather, Yuan Zhengtang, once mentioned to you..."
"The story of Guiyue Liuyun, and that you never thought of fighting against Guiyue Liuyun before Yueying Island."
"I remember that you didn't seem to recognize Guiyue Liuyun during the trial on Yueying Island..."
"……Seems to be."
Xiang Yuanguang was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head thoughtfully.
His eyes then locked onto the magatama hanging on Koshimizu Nanatsuki's chest.
(This situation didn’t seem to happen before. Is it because I didn’t wear the magatama?)
(No, there was no similar situation before I drew the magatama.)
(Is there something that caused the change that I'm not aware of?)
For some reason, Genkou subconsciously thought of what Naruhodō Mitsuki said when he was learning magic.
[Hey, Mr. Xiang Yuan is here again? Ah, Mr. Xiang Yuan this time is different from the last time? ]
(Another one... Xiang Yuanguang? The original owner of the body who has died?)
(His deployment in Shikoku was definitely not aimed at Guiyue, but was just called upon by me.)
(So, what was his original purpose?)
unknown.
Xiang Yuanguang took out the [Black Magician] monster card given to him by Baosheng Lidou from his arms.
The image of the black magician is reflected in the sunlight from the window.
It is difficult to see the content above.
The new generation of Yugi Muto put the card back into his pocket.
No matter what, let's first solve the lavender case in front of us.
As for the other things, I will study them slowly after returning to Beika Town.
