Chapter 785: Dragon-like Reversal (24)
————Will the trial end today?
Xiang Yuanguang doesn't think so.
Originally, he was not sure whether there was another mastermind behind this incident, but the conversation between Kazama Shintaro and him in the lounge today made him more and more convinced that the Omi United, as Conan had inferred, was involved in this incident.
The Kansai underworld organization has often thought about expanding its territory to the city of Tokyo.
"Since the defendant, Mr. Utsunomiya, is in good condition and can accept the questioning in court, the court trusts the judgment of the Japanese Public Security Bureau. However, if any problems arise along the way, the Japanese Public Security Bureau will be responsible for it."
The blond judge nodded and did not mention Utsunomiya Naoji again.
He turned to look at Chief Prosecutor Iwai Sayoko who was standing at the prosecutor's seat, then he glanced at the file bag on the desk of Iwai Sayoko's prosecutor's seat, and finally spoke.
"Prosecutor Iwai, how are the preparations for the second trial of this case going?"
"Are there any other issues that need to be resolved? If not, can I participate in the trial now?"
Hearing the presiding judge's question, Iwai Sayoko nodded slightly and answered directly.
"The prosecutor is ready and can participate in the trial at any time."
After obtaining the consent of the prosecution, the presiding judge turned his head again and looked in the direction of the defense seat. At this moment, Xiang Yuanguang had already put the information he got from Kazama Shintaro back into the file bag.
He placed the briefcase on the table at the defense table and spoke without waiting for the presiding judge to speak.
"The defense has also completed its preparations and can enter the trial process at any time."
Now both the defense and the prosecution have stated that the preparations before the trial have been completed.
The presiding judge naturally had no reason to waste any more time at this moment. He nodded, raised the gavel, and under the gaze of everyone present, he slammed the gavel down. The dull sound instantly resounded throughout the entire courtroom.
Then the presiding judge announced loudly.
"This court hereby announces that the second day of the trial regarding the assassination of Prosecutor Kusakabe will now begin."
"Now, please ask the prosecutor to explain the full picture of this incident after investigation, so that this court, the defense lawyers and legal assistants, and the many audiences in the courtroom can understand the case more easily."
As soon as he said this, Iwai Sayoko reached out and opened the file bag.
The chief prosecutor quickly pulled out a number of documents from the file bag, sorted them out, looked at the text, thought about the order, and then began to talk about the "facts" determined by the prosecutor.
————Of course, that was the fact for the prosecutors, but it was actually just a fictitious inference.
"Then the prosecutor will describe the entire incident from the beginning."
Iwai Sayoko pushed up her glasses and spoke calmly.
She stood behind the prosecutor's seat, pinched a few pieces of paper between her fingers, raised them, and fixed her eyes on the numerous words on the papers, and then she spoke directly.
"The prosecutors would like to first explain the mastermind behind this series of events and the reasons for the crime."
"The mastermind behind this series of events is Shimano Tai, the leader of the Shimano Group, a direct descendant of the Tojo Clan. The reason for the crime is to arouse dissatisfaction among the top leaders of the Tojo Clan in Kamurocho, so as to force the fourth-generation president of the Tojo Clan to abdicate."
"————Of course, considering that the presiding judge and the audience don't know Shimano Tai well."
"The prosecutors would like to briefly explain why Shimano Tai thought that this method would allow him to become the fifth-generation president of the Tojo Clan and force the fourth-generation president of the Tojo Clan to abdicate." The chief prosecutor said calmly.
"As the leader of the Shimano Group, a direct descendant of the Tojo Clan, Shimano Tai is an absolute top leader of the Tojo Clan."
"He has a long history in the Tojo Clan. If Sera Masaru steps down, he will definitely be the fifth-generation president of the Tojo Clan. Therefore, Shimano Tai will create the incident of Kusakabe being sniped to force Sera Masaru to step down."
"But what Shimano Tai didn't expect was."
"Even though he was facing the pressure of the 10 billion yen theft case and the subsequent assassination of Prosecutor Kusakabe, the fourth-generation president of the Tojo Clan, Masaru Sera, still had the ability to control the Tojo Clan."
"So Shimano Taichi was blinded by profit and planned the assassination of Sera Masaru."
"This is what Lawyer Yuan mentioned yesterday. This is the truth behind the assassination of Sera Masaru the night before yesterday. As for why Shimano Tai would look for the remnants of the Oni Tiger Group who have nothing to do with the Shimano Group..."
"The reason is simple. The Oni Tiger Group has no connection with the Shimano Group. This in itself is the biggest advantage."
Iwai Sayoko pushed up her glasses and continued.
"Because the Ghost Tiger Group has no connection with the Shimano Group, no matter how much suspicion there is, it is impossible for anyone to suspect the Shimano Group. This also allows the Shimano Group to take this opportunity to put pressure on other direct organizations."
"Besides, even if the members of the Ghost Tiger Group are captured, it will not be a loss to Shimano Tai."
"Because, if the members of the Ghost Tiger Group were caught, they would not be able to identify the target in the courtroom because they did not know Shimano Tai at all. However, Shimano Tai obviously did not expect one thing..."
The prosecutor's voice was somewhat confusing.
Even Xiang Yuanguang frowned slightly, thinking about what Iwai Sayoko said, that Shimano Tai had not expected the Japanese public security to be about.
But after that, he had already reacted.
There is no doubt that what Shimano Tai did not expect was that there would be members of the Japanese Public Security Bureau who took photos of all the members of the Tojo Clan in advance, which also led to the indisputable exposure of Shimano Tai's identity at this time.
"...I believe everyone has already guessed it."
"Shimano Tai did not expect that members of the Japanese Public Security Bureau had the photos and personal information of all the high-level members of the Tojo Clan. This is the biggest reason why Shimano Tai was exposed today and brought to justice!"
Iwai Sayoko said seriously.
After hearing the chief prosecutor's words, sporadic applause arose from all directions in the audience seats. The next moment, the applause became louder and louder, filling the entire courtroom, and everyone agreed with Iwai Sayoko's words.
At least agree with this statement.
"It seems that the specific case is more serious and dangerous than this court imagined."
The presiding judge nodded slightly and expressed his opinion.
"However, Prosecutor Iwai is indeed a very dedicated prosecutor."
"So, regarding this matter, does Lawyer Xiang Yuan want to express any opinion?"
Xiang Yuanguang, who was on the defense bench, raised his head slightly and narrowed his eyes.
