Chapter 569 The Trial Begins
Chapter 569 The Trial Begins
Let’s not talk about Director Yan Tu who is warming up in the lounge and is about to go on stage.
At the defense seat in the courtroom, Ayumi Yoshida stared at the old man opposite her who looked and spoke fiercely. She felt something strange and muttered to herself.
"Why did that old man just stare at Uncle Yashuangyi? Is there any relationship between them?"
"……what?"
Naruhodō Ryunosuke turned his head and looked at Karma Go, but Karma Go's gaze had already shifted elsewhere.
Because of Yaluwuren's provocation just now, he didn't notice the look in the prosecutor's eyes. Since Ayumi said so, does that mean that there's something wrong with the way that guy looks at Yashuangyi?
Hiss————Considering this guy’s inexplicably bad attitude as soon as he came on the court, could it be that he has a grudge against Yashuangyi?
What on earth did Yashuangyi do in Old London during these three months to attract the hatred of so many troublesome people at the same time...
Naruhodo could never have imagined that whether it was Yaluwuren, Karma Go, or Yan Tu Haici.
These three villains, who could be described as a landslide in the judicial world, were actually targeting him.
Yashuangyi Yizhen could only say that he was unlucky. If Professor Moriarty had not specifically asked Yashuangyi to be the defendant, it would probably be some unknown lucky person standing in the dock at this time.
After all, the defendant in the Cocoon Game Trial Court only needs one person to stand there. Who is this person...
It doesn't matter to gamers or them.
The wigged judge in the main seat coughed twice, then raised his head and glanced at everyone in the courtroom.
Then, his eyes fell on the empty seat number five in the jury and he asked in surprise.
"What's going on? Why is there one person missing from the jury? Hasn't he arrived yet?"
"Also, why is there no ID tag on Juror Number 5's desk?"
This was indeed strange, and not only the presiding judge, but Naruhodō also noticed it.
Just like Yaluwuren who was sitting in juror seat number one, the other three jurors had their identity tags and number tags placed on their tables, but the fifth juror who did not come only had a number tag.
This situation is too strange for the Tribunal. After all, order is the first priority in the Tribunal...right.
"The fifth juror? I don't know. He was chosen at random anyway. He has nothing to do with the case."
Yaluwuren folded his hands on his elbows, still with that hypocritical, somewhat uncomfortable smile on his face.
"In my opinion, he is probably an unemployed vagrant? He can't even put up a name tag to show his identity. Now he is probably busy making a living..."
"Isn't this a common situation? The jurors are unable to attend the trial because of their own affairs."
Juror No. 1 smiled, pushed up his glasses, and then urged.
"Mr. Judge, please stop dwelling on these insignificant and trivial matters. Everyone except juror number five has arrived at the courtroom. There is no need to postpone the trial to wait for just one person."
"Besides, the disciple of the Death God Prosecutor has become the second Death God and professor. This is such big news..."
"It would be better to give the verdict of the trial before those unscrupulous reporters write nonsense, right?"
He originally wanted to ask the clerk next to him to find the relevant person in charge to inquire about the identity of juror number five, but after hearing what Yaluwuren said, the presiding judge nodded.
This situation is just like what Yaluwuren said, it is indeed very common, but it is a bit strange that there is no identity card.
Now that everyone except juror number five has arrived at the courtroom, the trial should indeed begin. The entire courtroom cannot be left waiting for someone who may or may not come.
So the presiding judge raised the gavel in his hand and slammed it down.
Boom!
The discussions in the audience seats suddenly stopped, and the entire courtroom fell silent. Everyone was waiting for the presiding judge to speak, even Yasou Yiyizhen who was sitting in the dock.
As a trainee prosecutor in Old London and a future legendary prosecutor, Ya Shuangyi's perception ability can be said to be extremely sharp, and he is very aware of the strange looks from the audience in the gallery.
But he was not angry about it. Instead, he thought of his teacher... the Death Prosecutor Baroque Benzix. Perhaps when Benzix was sued by him, he felt the same as he does now when he was in the dock.
(Let’s consider this as a form of spiritual practice…)
Yasougi Yizhen closed his eyes and gradually calmed down. At this time, the chief judge finally spoke.
"Today, the trial of the [Prosecutor Yashuang Yizhizhen murder] case began in the Old London Court. May I ask if the prosecutor has completed his preparations?"
Karma Hao, who was standing at the prosecutor's seat, didn't even bother to reply. He just nodded slightly to show that he was ready.
The presiding judge was too lazy to argue with him and turned to look at Naruhodō Ryunosuke at the defense table with a gentler attitude.
"So, is the defense's preparations complete?"
"I remember that Lawyer Naruhodō just arrived in Old London tonight. I hope you are well prepared."
Naruhodō nodded seriously and said affirmatively.
"The defense has made preparations. Next, I will prove that the defendant, Yashuang Yiyi, is truly innocent!"
Boom!
The gavel was raised high and then smashed down with a dull sound.
The presiding judge said seriously.
"Well, since the defense and the prosecution are ready, I hereby declare——"
"The trial of the prosecutor Asougi Ichima's murder case has officially begun!"
"Please ask the prosecutor of this case [Hao] to give a brief description of the case!"
In response, Karma Hao's attitude remained arrogant and he sneered.
"Does this old man need to say anything more about this obvious matter?"
"Hmph, well, Naruhodō Ryunosuke, I will make sure you lose clearly and sincerely!"
pat.
Lao Deng snapped his fingers, pointed at Naruhodō Ryunosuke, and spoke.
"The defendant in this case, Yasou Yiyi, is actually Jack the Ripper, and was caught at the scene by officers from Scotland Yard after committing his third crime tonight."
"He was standing next to the body with the murder weapon in his hand. There was no other suspect at the scene!"
"From this, it can be seen that Yashuang Yiyi is truly the infamous killer Jack the Ripper!"
"In addition, before he committed the third murder of a woman, he sneaked into the hospital and shot his former companion, Japanese medical student Reito Hosou, with a pistol!"
"A person who can kill his own companions without hesitation has probably completely become a murderer without moral or legal bottom line. Judge, in my opinion, even the trial process seems unnecessary..."
Karma Go stared at Naruhodō Ryunosuke and said coldly.
"He was caught at the crime scene, the process was clear, there were witnesses and evidence, there was no room for doubt at all."
"Why not just convict him directly and save all this time!"
This new prosecutor had little experience in old London, but his tone was quite loud.
Those who know him say he is new, while those who don’t think the old London Procuratorate was run by his family.
Naruhodō Ryunosuke curled the corners of his mouth, somewhat speechless.
The presiding judge in the main seat spoke loudly.
"It is not up to you to decide whether the case should be tried or how to convict! Prosecutor, watch your words!"
"Then please call the first witness in this case now!"
