Chapter 806: Dragon-like Reversal
Chapter 806: Dragon-like Reversal (44)
Xiang Yuanguang's voice was like a heavy hammer, hitting Utsunomiya Naoji's heart.
Finally, Utsunomiya Naoji fully realized his situation.
The black chess pieces that were originally blocking him were completely shattered and ceased to exist. Even the logical chess board disappeared from Xiang Yuanguang's sight.
The final truth has been obtained.
————Mirai Genkō knew which photo Utsunomiya Naoji would point out next.
In everyone's sight, Naoji Utsunomiya opened the file bag in his hand, took out all the photos inside one by one, placed them on the table, and then took out the photo he had mentioned to Genkou before.
That is, the photo of Ito Yasuhito, an elite member of the Shimano group.
"...The senior executive of the East City Association who made the deal with me was this person."
Utsunomiya Naoji said.
As soon as these words were spoken, there was an uproar in the audience.
On the one hand, he was dissatisfied with Utsunomiya Naoji's perjury and failure to report the situation. On the other hand, he was surprised that Minamoto Mitsuki could recognize the real mastermind at a glance without any information.
The blue lawyer always seemed to be more capable than they expected.
"It's actually the same photo that Lawyer Xiang Yuan pointed out earlier!"
The presiding judge said with some surprise.
However, he shook his head and felt that there was nothing surprising about this.
After all, since Xiang Yuanguang was able to press forward step by step and move Utsunomiya Naoji's testimony little by little in a direction favorable to the defense, it is very likely that he already knew the truth of it all from the beginning.
All I can say is that the legendary lawyer who is famous in Tokyo is really good at this.
However, the presiding judge could not directly determine the authenticity of the evidence. In order to avoid accidents, he still asked.
"Mr. Utsunomiya, are you sure?"
"Are you sure that this photo shows the person you traded with before? In view of the fact that you have repeatedly revised your testimony during this trial and even made false testimony, this court has to reconsider the credibility of your testimony..."
"If you say that even this testimony is perjury, then this court will hold you accountable under the law!"
The presiding judge spoke in a serious voice.
When Utsunomiya Naoji heard the voice, his expression became even uglier.
He looked at Iwai Sayoko who was sitting in the prosecutor's seat, but saw that the chief prosecutor did not seem to want to look at him. Her head was tilted to the side, and it was unknown what she was thinking.
Then, Utsunomiya Naoji looked at Kazami Yuya next to the evidence table again.
This time, Yuya Kazami responded.
As the public security officer in charge of this trial, Feng Jianyuya nodded in his direction, indicating that he could acknowledge the truthfulness of this testimony.
Seeing this, Utsunomiya Naoji finally felt a little relieved.
He opened his mouth and said,
"Your Honor, I can take legal responsibility for this and admit that this testimony is true and correct!"
"The person who assigned us the mission to assassinate Prosecutor Kusakabe was the one in the photo. There will be no mistakes!"
After receiving the affirmative testimony, Xiang Yuanguang nodded slightly.
However, before he could say anything more, Shimano Tai became furious.
"Damn it! This traitor actually dared to betray the East City Society and do such a thing!"
"It even brought trouble upon me! I can't help but deal a heavy blow to a guy like him!"
Shimano Tai's voice made Xiang Yuanguang frown slightly. However, he did not say anything more, but turned back to his seat.
Having already pointed out Shimano Tai's alibi and completed his testimony, Kazama Shintaro left the courtroom under the guidance of the bailiff, and Utsunomiya Naoji, who was originally standing at the testimony desk, also returned to the dock.
The area behind the testimony stand was suddenly empty.
Everyone's eyes then fell on Shimano Tai.
Suddenly, even though Shimano Tai was a veteran and well-trained man, he felt an inexplicable sense of uneasiness when he saw the position of the testimony stand, as if he would be in great danger as long as he stood behind the testimony stand.
However, he still strode to the back of the testimony stand.
The presiding judge, who was looking at the main seat, spoke loudly.
"What do you want me to say? Didn't that hedgehog-head guy just prove that I can't be the murderer of this public security incident? So you can let me go back now, right?"
Shimano Tai said this.
This made Iwai Sayoko, who was already unhappy, even more unhappy.
She slammed her palm on the table and spoke loudly.
"Even though you have been cleared of direct suspicion of the assassination of Prosecutor Kusakabe, you cannot be cleared of suspicion of the assassination of the fourth-generation chairman of the Tojo Clan, Sera Masaru!"
"Shimanota, watch your attitude! The Tribunal is not a lawless place and will not let you do whatever you want!"
————Wait, what is that? A suspect in the assassination of Sera Masaru?
Hearing this, Shimano Tai was stunned.
What was going on? He had never thought about how this matter could be linked to him.
What Shimano Tai didn't expect was that when Yuya Kazami returned to the testimony stand, he glanced at him and stabbed him again without hesitation.
"Moreover, the person who directly traded with Utsunomiya Naoji was not you, but Ito Yasuhito. That doesn't exempt you from the suspicion of indirect crime in this incident."
"As everyone knows, Ito Yasuhito is not only a backbone of the Shimano Group, but also an old man who has followed you for many years."
"We cannot rule out the possibility that Ito Yasuhito asked the remnants of the Oni Tiger Group to carry out the assassination mission against Prosecutor Kusakabe. It is not you who instructed Ito Yasuhito to do it, and then Ito Yasuhito outsourced it."
————Damn, this is so troublesome.
Shimano Tai couldn't help but frown deeply.
Combined with his bald head, he looks particularly ferocious and vicious.
This made the bald blond judge feel a little uncomfortable.
They are both bald, but why does it feel like there is such a big difference between Shimano Tai and the chief judge of the Third Court? I always feel that this guy is not a good person and has killed many people...
"In short, Mr. Xiang Yuan, this court will ask you a question."
"What are you going to ask the witness about next?"
The blond judge turned his head to look at the defense seat and asked directly.
Faced with this problem, Xiang Yuanguang already had an idea in his mind.
He picked up the coffee cup, took a sip, and then spoke.
"Of course, it is to provide further testimony on the part of Ito Yasuhito."
"After all, the theme of this case is still the trial of the attempted assassination of Prosecutor Kusakabe. After resolving this incident, we can then solve other cases. This way, the priorities are clear."
