People are in Conan, but Ace Attorney

Chapter 925 The Ghost Month Prosecutor is Here, We're Saved!

—————June 15th, 10:30 PM—————

—————Tokyo area, Kana family villa——————

"...Hey Mori, what are you doing at the crime scene again?"

Inspector Megure's lips twitched slightly, and he said with a hint of helplessness.

Although he knew that the recent heinous murders had little to do with Kogoro Mouri, the thought of the latter's infamous reputation as a jinx still made him think of him.

I feel that for the safety of the citizens of Beika Town, it would be better for Mori to stay in the office unless necessary...

"This...I don't know either."

Kogoro Mouri was equally helpless.

Although he had considered the possibility of a heinous murder on his way to the villa in Canada, he never imagined that such a heinous murder would actually happen.

However, the only saving grace is that the perpetrator in this murder seems to be relatively clear...

Even if he doesn't fall into a deep sleep, based on the various clues at the scene, the murderer this time is undoubtedly his client, Kanazan.

The various pieces of evidence at the scene, as well as the attack that Kanami Saki had previously suffered in her room, all suggest that the person who had been harassing and intimidating Kanami Saki was likely the deceased, Geral Tenma.

The relationship between Kana Yoshino and Kana Misaki is currently quite harmonious.

Otherwise, Kana Zen would not have specifically commissioned him to investigate inside the villa for this matter. When he broke down the door and went in, Kana Zen was right behind him.

He could vaguely make out the attacker's appearance, and Kanazan should have seen it as well.

This suggests that Kanazono had most likely already identified Gerald Tenma as the intimidator, which is why he summoned Gerald Tenma to the piano room just as the cooperation agreement was about to be signed...

"...This is most likely a crime of passion committed after an argument."

Kogoro Mouri became serious and said this.

Upon hearing this, Kana Zen quickly denied it, saying that he was only asking about the photo of Gerald Tenma and Kana Misaki. Although there was a slight argument, it was only limited to language.

Their dispute never escalated to the point where they had to fight!
However, to others, Kanazono's words seemed like nonsense.

Although others may not have as detailed an understanding as Kogoro Mouri, they can still discern the general situation: only Yoshinobu Kana and Gerald Tenma are inside the piano room.

Then Gerald Tenma died in front of Kanazono, but Kanazono said that he did not do it.

If it really wasn't Kana Yoshizawa who did it, then who could it be? There wasn't a third person to be found in the entire piano room, and Kana Yoshizawa himself couldn't say who the real culprit was.

At this point, almost everyone assumed that Kanazen was the murderer.

Even Tokudaiji Masayo, standing next to Kana Yoshinori, frowned, pondering which lawyer to hire to ensure Kana Yoshinori received the lowest possible sentence in court.

On the other side, Kanami Saki also looked gloomy, as if she felt quite sorry that Kanami Yoshino was about to be arrested by the police as a murderer and then go to jail.

Instead, it was Hideki Kana, who had previously seemed to be at odds with Zenko Kana, who stepped forward.

He stood in front of Ganashanze and said earnestly.

"Impossible! My brother couldn't be the murderer!" "There must be more to Gerald Pegasus's death than meets the eye! To conclude that my brother is the murderer simply because he and Gerald Pegasus died in the same room is a bit too hasty!"

Hideki Kana's performance exceeded the expectations of Misaki Kana and Yoshino Kana.

However, this only made Gerald Tenma's agent, Michel Anglade, even angrier. He had come to the villa with Tenma to discuss the contract.

Because this collaboration was initiated by Hideki Kana, who also acted as a go-between.

In other words, if Hideki Kana hadn't brought up this collaboration, Gerald Tenma wouldn't have died here, and Hideki Kana is also responsible for his death here.

What's more, he actually stood openly on the side of the murderer at this time!
“Mr. Gana, don’t forget that Gerald Pegasus is also a French citizen. Now that he has died here under mysterious circumstances, someone must be held responsible!”

Michel Anglade said angrily.

He pointed at Kana Yoshizawa, who was being shielded behind Kana Hideki, and spoke loudly.
"If the perpetrators are not punished as they deserve this time..."

"Then I will go directly to our embassy in Tokyo to explain the situation and see how the trial of this case will develop!"

—Although Gerald Tenma is actually Japanese.

However, he had spent ten years in France and become a well-known singer in the French music scene, so he had naturally obtained French citizenship. Now that he has died here inexplicably, it will surely cause a huge uproar in France.

In that case, the entire Gana Entertainment Group will likely suffer a heavy blow!
Seeing this, Kanami Saki's face turned pale.

Upon hearing this, Inspector Megure, who had rushed over from the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department overnight, sighed and quickly stepped forward to mediate, hoping that both parties involved in the case could calm down as much as possible.

He just felt a bit of a headache.

Why do these tricky cases always end up in the hands of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, and why does it always seem to happen to him? It's one thing if it happens once, but why does it always happen?

The Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department receives numerous emergency calls every day, with many detectives from the Criminal Investigation Division responding to calls.

However, it seems that only he and Inspector Shiratori Ninzaburo, who had only recently been promoted, encountered such thorny and heinous murder cases so frequently, which was truly a headache...

"Damn it, if only Detective Hakuba were here."

Inspector Megure muttered softly.

The Hakuba detective he was referring to was, of course, Hakuba Saguru, the son of the Superintendent General of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.

This famous detective, who returned from studying in England, has recently been assisting the Tokyo police in solving many cases. In terms of both ability and efficiency, he is no less capable than the previously famous high school detective, Shinichi Kudo.

However, Hakuba Saguru rarely contacts the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department at night.

Otherwise, he would be considering contacting Hakuba Saguru through a friend and asking him to come and handle the situation—putting aside his detective status, Hakuba Saguru is also the son of the Superintendent General of Police.

What are you talking about...?

A girl's voice sounded from behind.

Inspector Megure turned around and immediately saw the somewhat confused young prosecutor stepping out of the car with an umbrella. He exclaimed as if granted a reprieve,

"Great! Prosecutor Guiyue is here! We're saved!"
