Chapter 761: Dragon-like Reversal
Chapter 761: Dragon-like Reversal (16)
Suddenly, the audience in the courtroom's gallery began to talk.
They didn't know what kind of evidence the defense would produce to silence Iwai Sayoko at this moment. After all, the defense claimed that they had never had any contact with the defendant before the lounge.
Then, Attorney Xiang Yuan should not be able to produce any evidence to prove that this matter has nothing to do with the Dongcheng Society.
Could it be that the special murder case that Lawyer Xiang Yuan mentioned earlier, which happened last night, is directly related to this matter? Even to the extent that it can directly prove that the top leaders of the Dongcheng Association have nothing to do with this matter?
Iwai Sayoko's expression was solemn.
She reached out and took the case file handed to her by the bailiff, but did not rush to open it. Instead, she placed it on the table, gently pressing the blue cover with her palm, and staring at Xiang Yuanguang standing at the defense seat.
This hedgehog, who has recently become famous and is called a legendary lawyer, still looks calm and composed.
It is hard to imagine that a guy who debuted, retired, and made a comeback in less than half a year could exert such terrifying suppression power in the court. It is really hard to imagine.
As expected, the new generation pushes the old generation forward?
"Xiang Yuan, why do you want to show this evidence at this time?"
Nanatsuki Koshimizu, who was standing at the defense table, was a little surprised.
In her opinion, there was no need to produce this piece of evidence at this time, because the prosecution did not have sufficient evidence to prove that the top leaders of the Dongcheng Society were involved in this matter.
If Xiang Yuanguang insisted that the prosecutor produce corresponding evidence, then the court should have adjourned the investigation.
Doesn't it seem a bit wasteful to use this piece of evidence here now?
In response to this, Xiang Yuanguang shook his head slightly and replied.
"Evidence is not a talisman. If you don't use it when you need it, it's meaningless."
"As long as we can achieve an absolute effect in the current situation, then the presentation of this evidence is meaningful. If we continue to fight a tug-of-war, it will be difficult to deal with when Mr. Utsunomiya enters the second stage."
————What do you mean by waiting until Mr. Utsunomiya enters the second stage?
Koshimizu Nanatsuki frowned, realizing that something was wrong.
However, witnesses who were attacked by Xiang Yuanguang in the past would all suffer a certain degree of mental breakdown. Could it be that Xiang Yuan was talking about the second stage, meaning that if the fight continued, Mr. Utsunomiya would undergo a catastrophic change?
This is indeed the case.
The heart lock on Naoji Utsunomiya is now in danger and may be completely broken at any time.
If Xiang Yuanguang did not make the final decision at this time, but continued to launch a strong attack on Utsunomiya Naoji, then Utsunomiya Naoji's sudden change would become inevitable, and other changes would occur in the Tribunal at that time.
His current goal is to buy time to investigate the incident and rescue Haibara Ai.
There is no need to adopt such an aggressive approach for the time being. After all, it is not difficult to recover the heart lock. The defense lawyer can meet with the defendant in the lounge after the trial and recover it at that time. There is no need to do it here.
Picking up the document he had printed out, Xiang Yuanguang placed it in his hand, patted it, and then spoke.
"Prosecutor Iwai, what do you think? After reading this case file, you don't have anything else to say, right?"
When the hedgehog-haired lawyer's voice was heard on the defense bench, the noise in the gallery grew louder, because they had no idea what was written in the document, nor did they know which case from yesterday it referred to.
However, they soon quieted down.
Because Xiang Yuanguang had already left the defense seat, he came to the witness stand, turned on the projector, and then spread out the case materials he had printed out and projected them on the wall so that everyone could see the contents clearly. ————The murder of the third-generation president of the Tojo Clan, Sera Masaru.
All the audience members in the gallery who saw the case materials couldn't help but gasp at this moment.
Even Naoji Utsunomiya, who was standing in the dock, felt his scalp tingling the moment he looked up and saw the information. He couldn't believe that the things in the information were actually true.
The third generation president of the Tojo Clan, Masaru Sera, is a very important figure to Naoji Utsunomiya.
The third-generation president had the ability to easily decide the fate of the Oni Tiger Group, and could be said to be one of the most powerful people in the entire Kamurocho. However, how could the third-generation president be assassinated so easily?
“…It’s unbelievable.”
Iwai Sayoko, sitting in the prosecutor's seat, read through all the information in the document from beginning to end and finally spoke.
Her face looked a little ugly.
Although she had not personally participated in the prosecution of cases for a long time after being promoted to Chief Prosecutor, she did not completely return her knowledge of case reasoning to her teachers in the academy.
If the third-generation president of the Tojo Clan, Sera Masaru, really died at this critical moment.
So, it is difficult to say whether the top leaders of the Tojo Clan had anything to do with this incident, because the sniper rifle bullet that killed Sera Katsu was of the same caliber as the sniper rifle bullet that attacked Kusakabe Makoto.
In other words, the sniper rifle that killed Sera Katsu was the same model as the sniper rifle that attacked Kusakabe Makoto.
————However, the Japanese public security did not disclose any specific information about the sniper rifle model.
Even if the Tojo Society intentionally wanted to sacrifice their own troops to save their own and deliberately used Sera Masaru's life as a pretext to try to divert the attention of the Japanese public security, it would be impossible for them to obtain a sniper rifle of the same model within one day.
After all, Japan is a country that bans guns.
You can get a sniper rifle within one day and specify the model. How can it be so easy?
"If this document is authentic, then the prosecutors will have to reconsider the specific relationship between the Dongcheng Clan's top brass and this case."
The Chief Prosecutor said so.
She looked at Yuya Kazami who was standing next to the testimony desk, trying to get an answer from him as to whether the case information was true or false. However, Yuya Kazami just nodded slightly.
Even if he didn't go to verify it specifically, he knew that this piece of evidence must be real.
Not to mention that Xiang Yuanguang is not the kind of person who would fabricate false evidence in a case. Even if he really could, it would be impossible for him to fabricate evidence that could be verified at any time for authenticity. That would be completely digging a hole for himself.
This piece of evidence is most likely true, and it can only be true————
"As you can see, Prosecutor Iwai."
"The connection between the Tojo Clan's top brass and this incident may exist, but it is definitely not like the Tojo Clan's top brass instructed the remaining members of the Oni-Tiger Group to assassinate Prosecutor Kusakabe. It is definitely a frame-up."
Xiang Yuanguang's voice was calm.
"Otherwise, how could the third-generation leader of the Tojo Clan, Sera Masaru, be assassinated by the same type of sniper rifle?"
