Then, Naruhodō would feel that there was a high probability that something really bad was going to happen in this trial.
Because he had almost no usable evidence in his hands, it was too difficult to use the evidence to pierce the witness's face!
"Greetings, Your Excellency the Judge."
The woman said elegantly.
"My name is Katherine Edwards, and I'm here to put Jack the Ripper behind bars."
"We don't need a serial killer on British soil who can move freely and is so cruel to women."
Apart from anything else, at least Katherine Edwards's appearance was a plus for the presiding judge.
Although judging people by their appearance is not reliable, it does not prevent most people from using it as their first impression of people.
The old judge wearing a silver wig coughed twice and then spoke.
"The court is aware of this. Then, please state your specific identity."
"The court knows nothing about you at present!"
Chapter 591 I can wear this kind of clothes too!
New witness, Kathleen Edwards.
A lady with long blonde hair and a ladylike long dress, she has an outstanding appearance.
In Naruhodō's opinion, this image is more in line with the definition of a lady than the tough-talking lady he met in Japan before. After all, a girl who walks around with a real swan on her head and who can lay eggs with an impatient swan cannot be considered a lady at all!
“I am a fashion designer.”
Kathryn Edwards said calmly.
"Because I am good at designing women's clothing, I am often asked to design a new dress or customize some special dresses. At that time, I will take a car to find the inviter."
"Only after meeting the inviter and getting to know him/her can I know what kind of clothes would be suitable."
"It was the same this afternoon... I took a car to the inviter's house to discuss things. When I was leaving after the discussion, I saw a man in strange clothes appear in the alley, and not far from him was a woman."
"The man was wearing a black cloak. Based on the clothes underneath that were revealed when the cloak was blown open by the wind, I guess he was wearing a white coat. His face clearly had the features of a mask."
"If the cloaked man is not a chameleon with a black upper face and a white lower face."
Hearing this, the presiding judge nodded thoughtfully, then asked uncertainly.
"Ms. Edwards, are you saying that you didn't see the cloaked man?"
The British lady nodded slightly, and then she added her words.
"Yes, just as the presiding judge said, I did not see the true face of the cloaked man."
"But before, I mentioned [the inner clothes revealed when blown open by the wind]. I saw the corner of the knife under the cloak, and the cloaked man seemed to notice my gaze. When I blinked, he disappeared."
"That's why I thought that the cloaked man was the legendary Jack the Ripper, and I reported the case..."
When she got here, she looked at Director Yan Tu on the other side and spoke again.
"But I didn't expect that Scotland Yard did not take any action at all, which led to an innocent woman losing her precious life in the dark night."
This is tantamount to directly accusing Scotland Yard of failing to do its duty.
However, everyone present also knew that it was normal for the police to ignore such unfounded calls.
After all, you said you saw Jack the Ripper, but no one else saw him, and there was no evidence to prove that you saw him. So, what if you simply called the police out of boredom, and the police missed other cases?
The Scotland Yard police force is under strain due to the high intensity patrols it maintains, and Commissioner Stern has stressed that the police force is under strain.
Therefore, neither the presiding judge nor the prosecutor would condemn Scotland Yard too much.
All I can say is that Scotland Yard was unlucky and happened to encounter the real owner being ignored, otherwise nothing would have happened.
"Haha, ma'am, this is indeed a mistake made by our police department. I apologize to you on behalf of the police department."
However, the new commissioner of Scotland Yard did not care about these and just apologized sincerely.
Then he returned to his previous calm demeanor, as if he was not the one who had just apologized.
The actual formalism makes it difficult for people to feel that Yan Tuhaici's attitude is sincere.
"Enough! There is no point in holding Scotland Yard accountable for its negligence now!"
"Now, whether it's you, Yan Tu, or Naruhodo, come back to the court!"
Having had enough of the red tape, Karma slammed his fist on the table to stop the conversation.
He continued coldly without hesitation.
"Witness, now, please give a detailed testimony of your experience of seeing Jack the Ripper!"
Such rude behavior made Catherine Edwards frown.
However, due to Lao Deng's appearance, she did not say anything. After all, there was no point in arguing with an old man, even if he seemed full of energy.
After all, he is like this, so just obey him. You won’t lose anything anyway.
The British lady pinched the sides of her skirt again, lifted it up gently, bowed, and then spoke.
"Well, excuse me. Let me explain...what I saw when I met Jack the Ripper."
【~About what I saw when I met Jack the Ripper~】
[Testimony begins]
"As I said before, I am a fashion designer and I will meet with customers before designing clothes."
"This afternoon, I left the customer's home after meeting with him and was about to take a car back home."
"But at that time, I passed an alley and noticed two peculiar-looking people in it."
"One is a woman wearing revealing clothes who seems to be still asleep, and the other is a cloaked man."
"The cloaked man was wearing a black cloak, a white coat, and a black mask on his face. He seemed to be in good shape, and there was a small piece of a knife with a cold glow on his belt. I guess it was a dagger."
"I was at the entrance of the alley, ready to ask the lady what was going on, but before I could open my mouth, the cloaked man noticed me and disappeared in an instant."
"So I reported it to Scotland Yard but was given a cold shoulder..."
"That is all I know, Mr. Attorney."
[End of testimony]
"...It seems that the situation is now clear, Naruhodō Ryunosuke."
Karma Go snapped his fingers and pointed at Phoenix Wright.
There was a hint of pride in his voice, and he spoke as if it was a matter of course.
"The witness' testimony can prove that the defendant in this case, Yashuang Yiyizhen, Jack the Ripper, met the deceased in the afternoon, and committed the crime that night, killing the deceased in the alley and was caught on the spot!"
"In this case, you have nothing else to say!"
...How can there be nothing to say about this!
Naruhodō Ryunosuke slammed the table without hesitation, refusing to be outdone.
He also pointed at Karma Hao and spoke in a very loud voice.
"What are you talking about! Prosecutor Hao, this only means that the person the witness saw was wearing similar clothes to Ya Shuangyi!"
"It's just a set of clothes. I can wear it too! What does it mean?"
...What a familiar statement.
Juror number five on the jury blinked.
He vaguely remembered that when he was angry about what he said in the court, he also loudly said that he could also wear this clothes.
The only difference is that what he was talking about was the maid uniforms in the cafe, while the ancestor was talking about Jack the Ripper's uniform.
"...It seems that the situation is not very optimistic, but...it shouldn't be a big problem."
"Hmm... they should be here soon...?"
Naruhodō Ryuichi raised his eyebrows uncertainly.
Chapter 592 You've Already Lost
"…What are you talking about? Naruhodō Ryunosuke, are you crazy?"
Demon Hunter slapped the table and said coldly.
"The witness met the customer this afternoon, and you were still on the ship from Japan to Britain at that time!"
"Anyone in the courtroom can wear this suit, except you!"
"Besides that, Naruhodō Ryunosuke, I have already reminded you before!"
He delivered the fatal blow without hesitation.
"In a court of law, the most important thing is evidence! Reasoning without evidence is just imaginary reasoning!"
