Chapter 349 Magic, leading to the cheers of reversal
Chapter 349 Magic, leading to the cheers of reversal (62)
Tick, tick, tick.
Miyoshi Mako walked calmly in the corridor leading to the Grand Courtroom.
She had a lot to think about regarding this staggered trial.
Although the ability of the lawyer known as the Dragon of Beika Town has been verified.
But for a case that happened fourteen years ago, even he would find it difficult to completely reverse the situation.
Originally, after killing Jiujiu Motoyasu, she planned to attack Jiujiu Motoyasu's daughter directly.
However, they were stopped by an unexpected person on the way.
She was a pretty girl wearing white clothes, and looked like a doctor.
【If you take a person's life, you can never go back. 】
From that time on, Miyoshi Asako gave up the idea of killing Kujuku Bunno for revenge.
Instead, he planned a farce, the purpose of which was to let the famous lawyer take over the case from fourteen years ago.
However, when he actually arrived outside the grand courtroom where the cross-trial was held, Miyoshi Mazi was still a little nervous.
Can the legendary lawyer in the story really reverse the case that happened fourteen years ago?
Crunch——————
The door of the courtroom was pushed open by bailiffs on both sides.
Miyoshi Mazi walked slowly to the back of the testimony stand.
Her eyes swept across the many audience members in the gallery of the grand courtroom, as well as the prosecutors and lawyers on both sides.
Finally, it fell on the four key pieces of evidence that had not been removed and had been transformed from magic props into murder weapons.
(I see. It seems that the other four cases of magic accidents have been reversed.)
The female magician raised her head calmly and looked at the bald old man in the main seat.
"Mr. Judge, is it time to start the trial of my brother, Kinoshita Yoshiro?"
It was somewhat surprising that the witness could remain calm standing in such a huge courtroom.
The presiding judge was a little surprised, but he quickly reacted and nodded.
"That's right. The previous four cases have been proven not to be simple magical accidents, but murders by a third party."
"It's just that the defense can only prove that it was a third party who murdered him, but they can't prove that it was Jiujiu Yuankang who killed him."
"And now is the time to reason and prove the case of Kinoshita Yoshiro fourteen years ago."
"You are the only witness in that case, so you are summoned to the Grand Courtroom to testify."
However, as the real murderer of Kyujuku Motoyasu, Miyoshi Asako's testimony is not very authentic.
After all, her alleged revenge might just be a one-sided excuse, a mitigating factor.
Although, whether it is the defense, the prosecutor, or the presiding judge.
I think the possibility of this is quite low.
"Ms. Kinoshita, please be careful, even though you are the only witness in this case."
"But that doesn't mean you can say whatever you want. The prosecutors will conduct targeted investigations and confirmations afterwards."
"If your testimony differs from the facts of the case, it may result in an increase in your sentence."
Kujo Reiko said calmly at the prosecutor's table.
After all, the situation is different from the other four cases, the case of Yoshiro Kinoshita fourteen years ago.
It was incorporated into the magician serial murder case entirely because of the testimony of Asako Miyoshi.
This means that the defense's level of investigation into the case of Yoshiro Kinoshita was quite low.
In addition, the police only recorded five pieces of evidence in that case, so it would be extremely difficult to reverse the situation.
"However, you don't need to be too stressed. Just explain the facts as you know them."
"After all, in this case, both the defense and the prosecutor knew very little about it."
The young prosecutor at the other prosecutor's seat spoke softly. Different from Kujo Reiko's style, Kizuki Hotaru is relatively gentler.
However, for Miyoshi Asako, the prosecutor's personality is irrelevant.
She cared more about the defense, especially Xiang Yuanguang's situation.
The hedgehog-haired lawyer's attitude towards her somehow improved.
He no longer wanted to rush over and give her a set of military boxing as before.
Yes... did you know something?
(Whether he knew it or not is irrelevant now.)
Miyoshi Mazi nodded slowly and then spoke.
"Then please listen carefully, Lawyer Xiang Yuan, to my testimony."
[~ Testimony about the case of Kinoshita Yoshiro fourteen years ago ~]
[Testimony begins]
"I used to live with my brother, Kinoshita Yoshiro."
"It's just that I usually stay in the rental house and rarely go to the Miracle Magic Group to play with my brother."
"On the one hand, I'm in school, and on the other hand, I think going there will affect my brother's magic performance."
"Until that day... when he was going to perform the art of escaping from bondage and become a master of magic."
"I took a special leave and went to the backstage of the Miracle Magic Troupe to look for my brother, but I saw this unexpectedly..."
"Kyujuku Motoyasu is tampering with the handcuffs that my brother will use for his performance."
"Before the performance, I told my brother about this, but he didn't believe me."
"Then, I saw with my own eyes that my brother died in the sink because of the handcuffs..."
"At the crime scene, Jiujiu Yuankang pretended to be shocked and pretended to be sad... It's disgusting."
"This is the truth behind the water tank escape magic show fourteen years ago."
[End of testimony]
It is obvious that Miyoshi Mako's testimony is very specific.
But this is not surprising, after all, her anger and hatred are not false.
However, these testimonies alone, combined with the evidence, cannot convict Jiujiu Yuankang...
Xiang Yuanguang, who was standing in the defense seat, frowned and looked at Gu Meimen who was standing in the other defense seat.
The ace lawyer was seen with his eyes closed, not knowing what he was thinking about.
(…It seems like I can’t rely on you. I’ll do it myself.)
The hedgehog-head nodded, waved his hand, and a cup of coffee flew onto the table.
He grabbed the coffee cup and took a sip.
(According to the normal process, the next step should be the lawyer's questioning stage.)
(Besides the delay, I still need to learn more about the situation.)
(Hmm... let's start from here to resolve this feud that has spanned fourteen years.)
"Well, the witness' testimony is very convincing. It sounds like Jiujiu Yuankang is indeed the murderer in this case."
"Then it makes sense that Miss Miyoshi would seek revenge on Kyujuku Motoyasu for this..."
The presiding judge made full use of his easily influenced nature.
This time he nodded and said one of the few words in favor of the witness during the trial.
But it is obvious that the prosecutor will not agree with the presiding judge's words.
"Your Excellency the Judge, can the testimony alone determine whether Jiujiu Yuankang is a murderer?"
"Convictions like this must be based on concrete evidence, otherwise it would be ridiculous."
Prosecutor Kujo Reiko said calmly.
"Defense, are you going to conduct the [interrogation] now? Or is it the same as before..."
"Can you directly prove that Kinoshita Yoshiro's death was not a simple mage accident?"
