Chapter 714 Final Questioning Stage
Chapter 714 Final Questioning Stage
"...A forensic doctor from Kansai? You have quite a wide network of contacts."
Oda Yoya took the autopsy report from the bailiff, his eyes fell on the issuing agency, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
However, he did not have any other opinions on this. After all, there was indeed no forensic doctor in Shizuoka Prefecture who had time to examine the body this morning. No matter which forensic doctor Xiang Yuanguang found, as long as he could be used, it would be fine.
His eyes fell on the autopsy report, and then he spoke calmly.
"The autopsy report showed that the injury to the deceased's head was not fatal. His real cause of death was rapid suffocation caused by an acute heart attack. In other words, neither the three witnesses nor the defendant in this case were responsible."
"Their suspicion of murder can now be completely ruled out."
With the Shizuoka Prefecture prosecutor's explanation, the nature of this trial can be directly defined.
Everyone in the courtroom's gallery was surprised. They looked at each other and whispered, making the courtroom gradually noisy. However, in the noise, Oda Yoya had no time to care about these things.
Now a second medicine has indeed been found in Taishi Komiyayama's medicine bottle, and it is a stomach medicine.
However, it is still difficult to identify a specific person by relying on stomach medicine. If you want to identify Komiyayama Tsuyoshi as the real murderer, then you must find evidence that Komiyayama Tsuyoshi was in Komiyayama Yasushi's house when the medicine bottle left her hand.
Because there are quite a few people who use this drug, it is impossible to convict someone simply for taking the same drug.
Oda Yoya's gaze fell on the defense seat not far away.
The legendary hedgehog-headed lawyer who came from Tokyo was as calm as ever. He flipped through the documents in his hands, seemingly deciding on his next strategy.
The legal assistant standing with the lawyer was whispering something.
But the distance was a bit far, and Xiao Tianyao couldn't hear clearly what the legal assistant was saying to Xiang Yuanguang.
Boom, boom, boom!
At this time, the presiding judge raised the gavel and brought it down slammed down.
Suddenly, the courtroom fell silent, and everyone's eyes were fixed on the presiding judge who was in the main seat. The presiding judge was being watched by so many people at once that he subconsciously stopped even the hammer.
"Uh, everyone, please keep quiet. This trial has entered its final stage and requires silence."
The presiding judge coughed twice and spoke in a serious tone.
"Then, Mrs. Komiyama, if you remain silent now and refuse to testify, can this court deem you to have pleaded guilty and refused to defend yourself?"
Hearing this, Komiyayama Dunzi finally spoke.
"Plead guilty and accept punishment? What crime is it?"
Mrs. Komiyama seemed calm and composed.
Even when faced with the presiding judge's words which were clearly threatening, his facial expression did not change.
This made the presiding judge mutter in his heart that the situation was different from what he had imagined.
He glanced at Oda Yoya who was standing at the prosecutor's seat and said this.
"According to the testimony of the witness Shunsuke Kitano, you are at least guilty of frame-up and bribery. Moreover, according to the defense lawyer's inference, you may also be guilty of intentional homicide."
"Under the circumstances, if you continue to refuse to testify in any case, then this court can only deem that you have waived your right to testify in this case..."
"Is that so?"
Komiyayama Dunzi shook his head slightly and said finally.
"The defense wants to ask about my whereabouts three days ago, right?"
"Then I'll tell you."
------
[~About the whereabouts of Komiyayama Dunzi three days ago~]
[Testimony begins]
"First of all, there is no conflict between Tsuda Hideo and me, so there is no reason for me to frame him."
"Secondly, I was not at home at the time. I was out for something." "As for what it was...it was nothing more than beauty care."
"I returned home in the afternoon, and Taiji had already left the house. The next time I saw Taiji was at the Shizuoka Prefectural Cultural Hall three nights ago. I only saw his body."
"Besides that, I don't have anything else to say."
[End of testimony]
------
The presiding judge frowned.
Obviously, even he could hear that Xiaogongshan Dunzi's testimony was somewhat evasive.
If Komiyayama Tsutomu is really as she testified, then she should now state the exact time she went out and the name of the store she went to. In that way, it would be easy to check whether she has an alibi or not.
Besides, there is no conflict between Komiyayama Tsuyoshi and Tsuda Hideo——
Well, it’s hard to say. Maybe there really isn’t any conflict. After all, Hideo Tsuda is a well-known good guy in the entertainment industry. Logically, there shouldn’t be any conflict between Hideo Tsuda and Tsutomu Komiyayama.
If Kitano Shunsuke had not said that it was Komiyayama Tsuyoshi who instructed him to frame Tsuda Hideo, he would not have believed this statement.
"Uh, defense attorney, what do you think?"
The presiding judge in the main seat turned his head and looked at Xiang Yuanguang in the defense seat.
Xiang Yuanguang has already exchanged information with Koshimizu Nanatsuki and has a thorough grasp of the current case.
Now he just took a sip of coffee, then snapped his fingers and spoke directly.
"No problem. The defense requests that we now proceed to the final questioning phase."
"The truth of this case will be revealed in this interrogation phase!"
Oda Yoya's gaze fell on Xiang Yuanguang.
He could clearly feel the self-confidence of this hedgehog-headed guy.
Could it be that this is the difference between a legendary lawyer and an ordinary lawyer? The self-confidence that comes from one's own ability, enough to crush all opponents?
Perhaps he could learn something from this man...
Without waiting for the prosecutor to express his opinion, the presiding judge spoke directly.
"Then please allow the defense attorney to proceed to the questioning phase."
"This court also wants to know the full story of this case!"
pat.
Xiang Yuanguang snapped his fingers again, looked at Xiaogongshan Dunzi who was standing at the testimony stand, and asked directly.
"Mrs. Komiyama, may I ask if you were the one who murdered Taishi Komiyama?"
Such a straightforward question.
There was an uproar in the audience, and even the presiding judge widened his eyes in surprise.
A drop of cold sweat dripped from Oda Yoya's forehead.
No, buddy, I am studying trade. If anyone asks how to ask, even a fool would say it is not me, right?
As expected, Komiyayama Dunzi looked at Xiang Yuanguang in the defense seat with some surprise.
Then she answered directly.
"Of course not me."
Heart lock, start!
Logical chess, let's begin!
Layers of chains and a chess board covering the floor of the courtroom appeared at the same time.
Xiang Yuanguang was already firing at full power!
