Chapter 553 Ya Shuangyi's Testimony
Chapter 553 Ya Shuangyi's Testimony
In other words, did Yashuangyi not get any useful information during his infiltration this time, and was simply tricked? This is really... miserable...
A black line appeared on Naruhodō Ryunosuke's head. Although he didn't have the heart to kill his friend, it seemed that this was the situation.
And Asougi Ichima seemed to notice Naruhodō Ryunosuke's reaction, and he continued.
"I haven't met Professor Moriarty many times, but he once said that he trapped Holmes in a dangerous place and would not release him until the last moment."
"In addition, he has a great underground influence, but he hates [toxic drugs] with all his heart. He is the kind of person who will get furious if drugs are circulated underground."
"In recent times, Professor Moriarty seems to have gained a few more partners. I estimate that there are four of them, but I don't know where they are and what they are responsible for."
"That's all the information I got from lurking in Professor Moriarty's place. It's a pity that I couldn't get any direct evidence that Professor Moriarty planned the Hound of the Baskervilles incident."
...Do you hate [toxic drugs]? But why?
Naruhodō Ryunosuke touched his chin. He felt something was not right. How could the boss of the underground forces reject such a profitable black business?
However, the children next to them seemed not to understand what it meant. At this time, the little girl trotted over and continued to ask in a soft voice.
"So, Uncle Yashuangyi, why did you believe Professor Moriarty's words tonight? Jack the Ripper is a very powerful criminal, right? Who could have attacked him?"
"…I guess someone who found out that Jack the Ripper was related to Professor Moriarty went to attack Jack the Ripper."
Asougi Yizhizhen said this, which was no different from Ming saying that he thought it might be Alice Watson.
In fact, Jack the Ripper did have an encounter with Alice at the University of London.
"Although I don't have a common samurai sword, a Western sword is enough for me. I think if I meet Jack the Ripper... maybe I can catch him."
"I just didn't expect that not only did I not encounter Jack the Ripper at the scene, but I was also pointed at with a gun by someone from the police station."
The seriousness of this situation is self-evident. The legendary swordsmanship master Ashina Ishin would pull out a musket from his arms when facing a strong enemy. As a swordsmanship practitioner, Asou Yoshikazuma certainly would not do anything else in the face of dozens of guns.
Only those who are familiar with both swords and guns will agree with the saying "The gun is fast three steps away, and it is both accurate and fast within three steps."
Ayumi nodded as if she understood. She thought about Alice's matter and felt that it was indeed possible.
At this time, Mitsuhiko stuck his head out and asked the third statement of testimony.
"Is there only the body of the deceased and the knife at the scene? What does the inscription on the knife look like, Uncle Ya Shuangyi, why did you pick up the knife? Can't you see it clearly?"
"…There was only a corpse and a knife. The knife was very sharp and could easily cut through human skin and flesh. The inscription on the blade was [Jake], representing the identity of Jack the Ripper."
Yasougi Yizhen replied. As for the last question, he just said this——————
"The inscription on the blade was covered by blood. I wanted to pick it up and look at it under the light of the street lamp. Now that I think about it... I was really not good enough at that time."
It was obvious that when the police arrived at the scene they would take the knife away and preserve it as evidence. At that time, he could just come to the police station as a trainee prosecutor and there was no need to take the risk of picking it up for inspection.
This may be because the first witness at the crime scene did not have the same desire to touch someone...
Next, for the fourth statement of testimony, Ya Shuangyi made additional testimony himself without being asked by others.
"Oh, Director Yan Tu came too quickly, and arrived just as I picked up the knife. The police acted in secret, without blowing the whistle, as if they had expected it."
"Partner, when you leave Scotland Yard, I want you to investigate the origins of this Chief Yan Tu. I suspect he is one of Professor Moriarty's four partners."
...one of Moriarty's four partners? A partner of such high status?
Naruhodō Ryunosuke nodded nervously. Then he asked about the second to last testimony, which was about Hosho Reito.
"Yashuangyi, why did Director Yan Tu say that you shot Dr. Baosheng? Why did Gina testify that you were the one who killed him? Why was Dr. Baosheng killed? Do you have any thoughts on this?"
It was obvious that Yasougi Ichima himself could not answer this question.
He just touched his chin thoughtfully, and then spoke uncertainly.
"When they arrested me, Gina hid behind Director Yan Tu and seemed to be afraid to look me in the eye. Maybe Miss Gina did this for some unknown reason."
"As for why Dr. Baosheng died... This should be the same as the disappearance of Sherlock Holmes. Professor Moriarty believed that Dr. Baosheng was a fatal threat, so he targeted Dr. Baosheng!"
"Mate! Be careful! You haven't been hurt by Professor Moriarty?"
“…My lawyer’s armband was taken away.”
Naruhodō said faintly.
As an important figure in the fight against the Chief Judge of Old London, Holmes was imprisoned somewhere unknown, Hosou Reito was shot dead, and Asou Yoshikazu was wrongfully imprisoned...
Then, was the legendary lawyer Naruhodō Ryunosuke just robbed of his lawyer's armband? Did Professor Moriarty really think that he would pose no threat without his lawyer's armband? !
As if thinking of this relationship, Yashuang Yiyi paused and then spoke.
"Mate, this shows that Professor Moriarty underestimated your strength! Perhaps with this, we can once again reverse the situation in Old London!!!"
"Yes, yes, Master Naruhodō, this is our great advantage!"
Shousado also added at this time, as if to cheer Naruhodō up.
But in a sense, doesn’t this mean that they both also think that Phoenix Wright was only robbed of his lawyer’s armband because Moriarty didn’t take him seriously?
After the brief chat, Naruhodō Ryunosuke spoke seriously before leaving.
"Yashuangyi, before the trial begins, I will definitely find evidence to prove your innocence!"
"Yeah, I believe you! Mate!"
The two partners stared at each other through the cell door, as if full of confidence.
Mitsuhiko quietly opened the detective medal and asked about the situation on Conan's side.
"Conan, Conan, we have found Prosecutor Yashuangyi and have now accepted the case..."
"...I understand. You just need to keep walking along this road. As long as you keep walking, the road ahead will continue to extend."
Conan casually fooled the elementary school student in the contact channel of the Detective Medal, then pressed the frame of his plain glasses, and the antenna suddenly rose. He squinted his eyes and looked not far away.
That was an old man who had just got off the bus.
"You look the same as Prosecutor Benjix's description. It seems that you are Moriarty's partner."
The Shinigami elementary school student said affirmatively.
