Naruhodō shook his head, but Conan's words reminded him that he could use his most common method at this time.

That is, by asking another witness next to the witness, observing the witness's reaction, and thus finding a breakthrough point to gain a foothold.

So, do it now.

Having made up his mind, Naruhodō no longer hesitated, slapped his hands on the table and spoke loudly.

"The defense wants to question the witness Yaluwuren and ask him to testify about what the witness Edward Turner said before the jury!"

"Mr. Ya Liu, please explain why Edward Turner said you were involved in this case!"

—.—Are you targeting me?

Yaluwuren pushed his glasses, his expression was still as gloomy, no longer as relaxed as before.

Although his mentality is unstable now, even so, he is not an opponent whose psychological defenses can be easily broken through.

Therefore, he not only had to answer Naruhodō Ryunosuke's questions, but also had to fight a beautiful comeback.

He was able to use words to lead Naruhodō into trouble before, and he can do it this time too!

In response to the defense's request, the presiding judge nodded in agreement without hesitation. He raised the gavel and then lowered it.

Boom!

[~ Testimony about Edward Turner saying that he had instructed him to hide the letter~]

[Testimony begins]

"Oh, Edward Turner would say such things only out of jealousy of me."

"After all, he was the only one asked to take the witness stand when he sat on the jury. It was too much of a psychological gap for him to become a criminal suspect."

"From this perspective, I even have some sympathy for his behavior. Haha, this is just a poor guy with no sense of security."

"I was not aware of the circumstances of this letter. It was only after Edward Turner informed me of it that I brought it up in court."

"As for instructing Edward Turner to hide the letters—haha, the defense doesn't have any evidence to prove that, right?"

"Rather than that, the defense lawyer should think more about why the police sent Hosou Reito to St. Andrew's Hospital."

[End of testimony]

Chapter 618: Explosion

Why did the police send Bao Sheng Li Dou to St. Andrew's Hospital?

Naruhodō was stunned.

He considered that Yan Tu Haici deliberately set an ambush near Jack the Ripper's third crime scene in order to capture Yashuang Yizhizhen.

However, he had never really considered why the police sent Reito Hosou to St. Andrew's Hospital for treatment.

Because Miss Gina was also involved in this incident at that time, and Miss Gina could not be Professor Moriarty's subordinate.

Therefore, Naruhodō subconsciously ignored this point. Now that Yaluwuren brought it up, he was immediately filled with doubts.

Hearing this, Yan Tu Haici could no longer laugh and his face turned gloomy.

This was not his arrangement. It was just that the patrolling police officer happened to meet Reito Hosou and sent him to the nearest hospital.

After all, their plans were opaque to each other, otherwise he would not have asked Gina for details when he was at the police station.

The defeated Ya Liu Wu Ren can't afford to play anymore and has started to ruin other people's gaming experience!

"—I can't pretend I didn't hear anything about this, Lawyer Ya Liu. You can't be ambiguous when speaking in court."

"If you suspect that I was the one who asked the police to send Mr. Baosheng to St. Andrew's Hospital, you can just say so."

"It's a bit petty to hint at something here. Do you have any concerns?

Yan Tu Haici's tone was cold and seemed completely different from before.

"Gina, have you been ordered to send Hosou Reito to St. Andrew's Hospital?"

The result speaks for itself. Gina Lestrade, who was standing at the edge of the testimony stand, shook her head and said affirmatively.

"No, we just sent the witness to the nearest hospital for treatment. The nearest hospital happened to be St. Andrew's Hospital..."

"She is your subordinate, and even a close confidant whom you promoted exceptionally. How credible is her testimony?

Yaluwuren interrupted Gina's speech directly and said bluntly.

"Edward Turner and Professor Moriarty's discussion about killing Reito Hosou at St. Andrew's Hospital is the main premise."

"Who would believe your men who sent Hosou Reito to St. Andrew's Hospital under such circumstances and said there was no prior order?"

"Could it be that Professor Moriarty, the Napoleon of the underworld, would do such a business that could fail? Don't be ridiculous!"

..—That makes sense.

The presiding judge nodded blankly. This indeed sounded reasonable.

Could it be that Director Yan Tu Haici is also one of Professor Moriarty's partners?

Yaluwuren is actually a good man who is eager to help others and stands up for his friend but gets beaten back?

"-.---That's not certain. Baosheng Reito's whereabouts are strange. No one knows where he will appear."

"It is very likely that Professor Moriarty has deployed measures in multiple hospitals to ensure that Hosho Reito can be completely killed."

"The difference is that Professor Moriarty will definitely arrange for his men to go to the hospital where Reito Hosho was killed and clean up the mess."

Yan Tu Haici had an uncomfortable smile on his face, and when he said "a perfect match", he pronounced each word clearly.

Immediately, the presiding judge nodded, and he felt that what Director Yan Tu said seemed to make sense.

After all, it is easier to catch fish if you cast a wide net. It is not surprising that Professor Moriarty would choose to deploy means in multiple hospitals to ensure that he could shoot Reito Housheng with 100% certainty today.

It seems that the suspicion on Lawyer Ya Liu is starting to grow again, even though there is no actual evidence.

But Edward Turner, who was clearly involved in the case, mentioned him by name. ".—·What is this doing?"

Naruhodō touched his chin and blinked, not understanding what these guys were doing.

They are all Professor Moriarty's partners, so why did they start arguing?

Could it be that these guys are fighting among themselves?

"No rush, let him have it."

Conan said in a low voice, planning to wait and see the situation. After all, a confrontation between the two of them could bring in a lot of new evidence.

When the time comes, it will be much easier to use these testimonies when we want to take action against Yan Tu Hai Ci or Ya Liu Wu Ren.

"In the final analysis, you are just holding on to a piece of nonsense that has no evidence to prove it."

"Really? That's not necessarily true, Lawyer Ya Liu. Perhaps the captured members of the criminal organization can bring you a different kind of surprise?"

Ya Liuwuren and Yan Tuhaici both turned sideways, looked at each other, and narrowed their eyes slightly, as if they were about to start fighting in the courtroom at the next moment.

But in the end, the two of them kept quiet and stopped the fight.

I was just secretly thinking about when to strike the opponent unexpectedly so as to inflict maximum damage.

"Ahem, Attorney Ya Liu, Director Yan Tu, the courtroom is a place for hearing cases, not a place for debate."

"Please respect the order of the courtroom. Now is the defense lawyer's questioning time. Please don't speak when the lawyer is not asking questions!"

Seeing that they had almost said enough, the old man in the wig finally lowered the gavel, coughed twice, and spoke seriously.

And Demon Hunter Hao also responded at this moment.

"That's right. It's not right to quarrel in the courtroom. You are so experienced in the courtroom!"

"I am ashamed to be in the same court with you!"

Yan Tu Haici and Ya Liu Wu Ren looked at each other, and then looked at Karma Hao who was sitting in the prosecutor's seat.

No buddy, what do you mean?

You sued your master, suppressed his teacher, and pressured his friends in court. You don't think that's normal, do you?

You are amazing, you are aloof!

If he can’t deal with Little Deng on the defense bench, how can he deal with you, Old Deng on the prosecutor’s bench?

Hunter Demon didn't know that he had successfully made the two of them divert their attention at the same time, and he still spoke proudly.

"Narbuto Ryunosuke, please ask quickly. I want to see if you can get any information that will be beneficial to your defense!"

..So you still remember that this is the questioning stage of Yi?

Naruhodō shook his head, trying to sober himself up a little, before speaking loudly.

"Lawyer Ya Liu, please further explain your fourth testimony [I didn't know about the letter. Edward Turner told me about it beforehand, so I brought it up in court]!"

"What is the specific time for this [before]? Before the trial begins? Before the first adjournment? Before the second adjournment? Or some other time?"

That's a good question.

Yaluwuren pushed his glasses up with his fingers and thought for a moment.
