People are in Conan, but Ace Attorney

Chapter 830 A Dragon-like Reversal (68)

When a black-and-white option appeared in the courtroom, the situation suddenly became clear.

Everyone realized that no matter what Shimano Tai said next, the final outcome would not change, because no matter which direction Shimano Tai started from, it would contradict the action logic assumed by Majima Goro.

If we say that Goro Majima doesn't care about chivalry and only cares about profit...

So, given that his own subordinates are all claiming that Shimano is the real mastermind, why does he insist that he is the criminal and has nothing to do with Shimano? Why not sell out Shimano to get a reduced sentence?

If we say that Majima Goro was talking about chivalry and deliberately concealed Shimano Tai's position in this matter.

Then the agreement between Goro Majima and Hikaru Mugen will become a new problem. If he is moral, he will release the person. If he is moral, he will not release the person, which means that there are other interfering factors. Moreover, Goro Majima cannot mention it.

The final outcome will also hinge on Shimano Tai, the only Tojo Clan executive who can force Goro Majima not to release him.

Even if Shimano wanted to refute this situation at this moment, it would be too late.

"Upon closer examination, it is indeed true that there are considerable contradictions involved."

The presiding judge nodded in realization.

The situation was previously complicated and unclear, but now that Xiang Yuanguang has clarified the main contradictions, the specifics are clear.

Even though he was just the presiding judge in the courtroom, he could clearly see where the current situation was headed.

"From this perspective, witness Shimano Tai is indeed very likely to be the mastermind behind that incident."

"That's what the blond judge said."

The discussion in the audience has been going on since it started.

Everyone was discussing whether the statement that Minamoto Hikaru had just made was logically sound, but after the discussion, they found that if they really looked at the extreme character portrayed by Majima Goro, it would be flawed.

This seems to make logical sense.

After all, people like Goro Majima are the type who either don't talk about morality from beginning to end, or they talk about morality from beginning to end and will never give up halfway.

Besides, even Goro Majima himself didn't deny anything, did he?
"Is it still possible to find such a breakthrough?"

Sayoko Iwai pushed up her black-rimmed glasses and said in a low voice.

Her tone betrayed her surprise, for even during her peak years before being promoted from elite prosecutor to chief prosecutor, she might not have been able to conceive of such a unique and groundbreaking line of reasoning.

To come up with such a breakthrough, Haki Hikaru, you're probably going to have to hire Haki Hikaru at home.

However, even if Xiang Yuanguang puts forward such an assumption now, there is still an inevitable contradiction, because people in the real world are not as black and white as ordinary people think, and they do not go down a dark path.

It is rare for anyone to truly carry out the path they believe in to the very end.

After all, that path was far too difficult, and it's entirely possible that Goro Majima was selfish at first, but then suddenly showed some sense of morality at a crucial moment and took the blame for himself.

If that's the case, then Xiang Yuanguang's hypothesis will have to be overturned again.

However, it would only make sense if Goro Majima said it himself, right? After all, Inspector Kazami just stated that there is a conflict between Tai Shimano and Goro Majima, so Tai Shimano's testimony is not as credible as before.

However, before Iwai Sayoko could finish her thought, Shimano Tai's voice rang out. This absolute high-ranking member of the Tojo Clan and the leader of the Shimano Group, at this moment, no longer exuded the aura of a yakuza boss; instead, he looked more like a real street thug.

he shouted.

"Damn it, Xiang Yuanguang, you bastard, what the hell are you talking about?!"

"What nonsense are you spouting? Even if Majima Goro really did end up in this situation because someone told him not to send your little girl back home..."

"That doesn't prove that I was the one who ordered him!"

"What evidence do you have for saying this? Just the one-sided testimony of those few members of the Majima Group who turned themselves in? Couldn't they have mentioned my name because they wanted to take the blame for Goro Majima or find a scapegoat?"

Shimano said loudly.

"Just like you mentioned before!"

"They probably felt that no one else besides me was qualified to make Goro Majima do something like this, so they brought it up at this time. But at that time, there were clearly other people who could have done it, weren't there?"

Hearing this, the presiding judge was somewhat surprised.

He didn't understand what Shimano Tai meant by saying that others could do it during that time period. According to Xiang Yuanguang's analysis, from beginning to end, only Shimano Tai had the authority and qualification to do it.

Now that Shimano Tai says there are other people who can do it, who is he talking about?
"……Yeah?"

Xiang Yuanguang gently touched his forehead with his finger.

His eyes narrowed slightly as his gaze fell on Shimano Tai.

The cracks on the three black heart-shaped locks on this menacing bald man's body had widened again, manifesting in Shimano's clearly unstable mental state, his emotions becoming extreme, and him making reckless statements—

No, it should be said that Shimano's unstable mentality manifested in his mental lock, which is why this result occurred.
The blue-clad lawyers remained calm in both mood and voice.

It was as if even now, the situation was still within his expectations.

However, this calm and composed demeanor, as if everything was under control, only made Shimano more irritated. He stared intently at Xiang Yuanguang's spiky hair, wishing he could go on stage and smash Xiang Yuanguang's head in.

However, if a real-life fight were to break out in court, the only outcome would be that Minato Mitsuko delivers a backhand punch to Shimano Tai, sending him to the ICU. There would be no other result.

You can question whether Hikaru Mugen is competent as a legendary lawyer in Tokyo.

After all, he can only handle criminal cases because he has never systematically studied other legal knowledge, so it's not wrong to call him an extreme dabbler.

However, it is wrong to question Genji Hikaru's combat abilities as the Dragon of Beika Town.

So it's possible that eating too many red beans caused him to miss them.

Countless people have already proven with their actions that Xiang Yuanguang's martial prowess is not just for show; he is a true master who can explain things by physics when reason fails.

The name of the person you're referring to is—

He said.
