Chapter 566: Demon Hunter
Chapter 566: Demon Hunter
After not seeing each other for three months, Alice and Naruhodō met briefly and exchanged information, and then separated again.
Alice took Susato, Mao Lilan, and some police officers from Scotland Yard to the hospital where Housheng Reito was shot, trying to get some evidence that might be favorable to Yasou Giichi.
Naruhodō followed the Junior Detective League to the court in Old London. Although he felt a little uneasy, he was very determined to get Asougi Giichi released.
If the lawyer does not have complete faith in his client and does not act out of a firm belief in his client’s innocence…
Then, isn’t the identity of a lawyer meaningless?
"The last time I entered the courtroom in Old London was three months ago."
Standing outside the court in Old London, Naruhodō Ryunosuke looked up at the crown.
He couldn't help but feel a little emotional in his heart, and said it subconsciously. Then he thought of something and looked at the Junior Detective Team.
"By the way, have you ever been to the courtroom before? If you're nervous, tell me... It may not be helpful, but at least it will reduce the psychological pressure, right?"
After all, the members of the Junior Detective League are all children, and they may be younger than Alice.
In a courtroom, which is an extremely solemn place, even Shousha would feel overwhelmed when he stood in the defense seat for the first time, let alone these young children.
However, in reality, Naruhodō Ryunosuke was obviously worrying too much.
Ordinary primary school students may indeed be scared when faced with such a situation, but the Junior Detective Team are not ordinary primary school students. They are primary school students who go wherever there is danger and have the maximum ability to commit suicide.
If you want to scare the Junior Detective Team, you can only ask the head teacher of Class B, Grade 1, Teitan Elementary School to leave.
There is almost no possibility that any other person or thing could make the enthusiastic Boy Detective Team retreat!
Next is the defense of Asogi Yizhen, and this trial is the same for them.
"No problem, no problem. Conan can come and go freely in the courtroom, and as the leader of the Junior Detective Team, there is certainly no problem for me!"
Genta said with a smile, and Mitsuhiko and Ayumi beside him nodded.
However, his reply made Naruhodō feel dizzy. He shook his head and sighed.
"…What do you mean by 'come and go freely'? Lawyers should stay at the defense table."
If you can come and go freely in the courtroom, wouldn't that be like treating the courtroom as a public toilet? You can come and go as you please. Where in the world is there such a good thing?
"No, Uncle Xiang Yuan often walks around in the courtroom and casts magic!"
Ayumi loudly refuted Naruhodō's words, making Naruhodō Ryunosuke at a loss for what to say.
Are there really lawyers in Japan who walk around in court and cast magic?
What is this? If someone studies law, he is a lawyer, but can he also be a magistrate? Can he even study law and the law at the same time?
Finally, the barrister sighed, looked towards the door of the Old London Court, and said something indescribable.
"In short, children, let's go to the courtroom first. We can discuss anything after the trial is over."
-------
"What? Yi Liu Wancai is inexplicably unconscious and unable to preside over this trial?"
In the prosecutor's office, Karma Hao was cheered up when he heard the words of the assistant prosecutor next to him.
Back then, he, Yi Liu Wan Cai, Yan Tu Hai Ci, and Ya Liu Wu Ren came to this scene together, and with the help of Professor Moriarty's power, they took important positions in their respective fields of expertise.
But Yi Liu Wancai gave up the prosecutor's profession and chose to become the presiding judge. That guy undoubtedly intended to experience the feeling of being the presiding judge in this scene, but now he is inexplicably unconscious. Maybe he was knocked unconscious by an electric shock?
"It seems that this guy has also suffered retribution. Who did this good deed?"
He asked casually, but the assistant prosecutor next to him had a strange look on his face.
Because Karma Go and Ichiyanagi Mansai joined Old London almost at the same time, some people have always said that they are from the same faction, and since they are from the same faction, they should have a good relationship with each other.
How come Liu Wancai is inexplicably unconscious and may have suddenly developed some disease without any signs and may die at any time, but Demon Hunter Hao looks so happy?
Could it be that Karma Hao has forgotten the friendship between him and Ichiyanagi Mansai?
The assistant prosecutor complained in his heart but said this out loud.
"Well, I don't know. Judge Yi Liu might just have a sudden attack of some disease..."
"In short, Chief Judge Yi Liu is no longer able to preside over the trial of Jack the Ripper. Now the case is handed over to the chief judge with the best reputation in Old London."
...The judge with the best reputation? Who?
Hunter Hau was a little confused as to why he didn't know who the best judge in Old London was.
But immediately, Lao Deng's mouth twitched, and he waved his hand, signaling his assistant that there was no need to say more.
He remembered that if there was any judge in old London who could preside over the trial of Jack the Ripper's murders, there was only one person - the bald judge!
Demon Hunter's eyes narrowed.
It cannot be said that the guy was bald, after all, he was wearing a silver wig, but his appearance was exactly the same as the bald judge he knew, except that he had a pair of small glasses.
It is a coincidence that the same position and appearance are still the same in the 21st century as at the end of the 19th century.
He couldn't help but wonder if the bald judge from the 21st century had also arrived at this scene...
"…Prosecutor [Hao], can you really do nothing about Yasougi Ichima?"
The assistant prosecutor looked at the clock on the wall, then he leaned close to Karma Go and asked in a low voice.
"They are the followers of Benjix that you have pushed out. If we are not careful, there will be a big mess."
"You used to be decisive, why are you so timid now and afraid to act?"
Hunter said nothing, but just looked up at the clock on the wall.
Then he stood up, and the assistant prosecutor behind him immediately picked up all the materials of the case.
"Yasou Yiyi is really special... No matter what you think, suppress it now."
Lao Deng only showed his back to his assistant, and the assistant could not see Lao Deng's expression.
His face was extremely serious, and seemed to have a sense of inexplicable respect.
"With the honor of Demon Hunting... I will fight Phoenix Wright in a fair duel."
