In this regard, the old judge sitting in the main seat had no need to object.
"Officer Chiba, from the trial just now, your professional ability is indeed lacking."
"I hope you will work harder and make up for your shortcomings after you return this time."
"Now, in accordance with the wishes of the prosecutors and the defense, we will call witness Kazuzo Sanada to testify."
"Officer Chiba, please leave first."
Chiba Kazunobu, who was originally feeling lucky that his salary was not deducted, suddenly became gloomy.
Oh no, I’m afraid the presiding judge will give him the lowest score in his salary assessment this time.
He sighed, turned and left, and there was an inexplicable sense of the bleak autumn wind.
Crunch——————
The door of the courtroom was opened and Officer Chiba left.
The two bailiffs who were originally standing inside the door also left.
Tick, tick, tick.
The sound of footsteps echoed in the corridor, and Kogoro Mouri was still in the lounge thinking about how he was going to speak.
I couldn't help but feel refreshed. According to the normal trial process, it was almost his turn.
(Okay, this time let Kudo see the true strength of the old detective!)
(I will definitely save Kudo-chan perfectly!)
Crunch——————
The door to the lounge opened instantly.
"According to convention, this is the time for my famous detective, Kogoro Mori, to appear, right?" Uncle Mori said so. However, the two bailiffs looked at each other and shook their heads.
Although under normal circumstances, the famous detective Kogoro Mouri is always the second witness to appear.
But this time, the second witness who appeared directly jumped to the suspect Kazuzo Sanada.
"No, the witness the presiding judge asked us to call was not Mr. Mori, but Mr. Sanada."
Kazuzo Sanada, who was sitting nearby reading a newspaper, looked up with a puzzled look on his face.
The second time I was asked to appear in court? Is that true? What happened?
The white magician sighed, put down the newspaper in his hand, and glanced at Miyoshi Mako in the corner.
"Since you are not asking Mr. Maori to recount his investigation experience, does that mean there is a new direction for the case?"
Boom————
The door to the lounge was closed.
Kogoro Mouri sat back in his seat thoughtfully, feeling strange.
Is it possible that the famous detective Kogoro Mouri will not have a chance to appear in this trial?
(Damn it... I originally said I would show off my reasoning skills in the courtroom.)
(I don’t have the chance this time. I should have gone to the gallery to see what’s going on in the courtroom…)
Tick, tick, tick.
Footsteps were heard coming from the corridor outside the Third Courtroom.
With a creaking sound, the door of the Third Courtroom was pushed open.
The next person to appear before everyone was the white magician Kazuzo Sanada.
Tick, tick, tick.
Kazuzo Sanada walked calmly to the witness stand and looked at the presiding judge.
"Excuse me, as the second witness to testify in court, is there anything you need to verify?"
"I think since Detective Maori has appeared as a witness, the second person to appear in court should be Detective Maori."
pat.
The hedgehog-headed magician standing in the audience snapped his fingers.
This attracted Kazuzo Sanada's attention, and he saw this defense lawyer in a black magic uniform.
At this moment, she was holding a cup of coffee and looking at him with a smile.
"Mr. Sanada Kazuzo, please tell me about the time between when you left the lobby of Queen Cesarebah and when you reappeared..."
"During this blank period of time, you testified. The defense suspects that you are [another Kaito Kid]."
Another... Kaito Kid?
A hint of surprise suddenly flashed in Sanada Kazuzo's eyes.
A hint of doubt appeared on the White Magician's face.
"You mean another Kaito Kidd? How could there be another Kaito Kidd on the field?"
"This is really too ridiculous. Even if it really exists, it can't be me, right?"
"Hasn't Inspector Megure already ruled out the possibility that I was disguising myself as Kaito Kid?"
Knock knock, knock knock.
The young prosecutor at the prosecutor's table tapped the table lightly a few times.
"Inspector Megure's previous reasoning and conclusions regarding your suspicion of crime have been overturned."
"The current evidence points to you as the second person disguised as Kaito Kidd."
"Whether you are the second person disguised as Kaito Kidd or not depends entirely on your testimony this time."
Gui Yueying narrowed her eyes slightly and spoke softly.
"Mr. Sanada, I hope you will testify truthfully and not lie."
"A lie, no matter how ingenious, is false and can be exposed."
"Now, please testify about [the blank time between leaving the lobby of Queen Serissabeth and appearing again]."
Yesterday's fourth update
Chapter 294 Magic, leading to the cheers of reversal (21)
Kazuzo Sanada was silent for a moment, his eyes wandering inside the courtroom.
Whether it is the young prosecutor Onitsuki Hotaru, the black magician Mukaiguchi Mitsugu, or the people in the gallery.
Everyone seems to be convinced that he is the second Kaito Kidd who appeared in this case.
(Sure enough... Kaito Kid himself is a big trouble. I should have known not to play Kaito Kid.)
(Anyway, I’m not the second Kaito Kid as they say.)
(So no matter what, I won’t be found out.)
The White Magician pushes his white magic hat down slightly.
"Of course, Your Honor, may I begin my testimony now?"
"For me, time is precious, and there is nothing wrong in ending this case early."
The presiding judge was somewhat surprised to hear the calm and composed words of Sanada Kazuzo.
Generally speaking, in Xiang Yuanguang's courtroom, the testimony stand was usually prepared in a way that would make people's defenses break out.
There is also a rumor that once you stand on the witness stand, the evil hedgehog-head will accuse you of being the murderer.
I didn't expect that this white magician from the Miracle Magic Group, Kazuzo Sanada...
How could he remain so calm and composed when there was a possibility of being accused of being the murderer?
For some reason, the presiding judge was in awe and nodded.
Then he lowered the gavel and spoke seriously.
"Since Mr. Sanada has said so, the court will naturally agree to Mr. Sanada testifying now."
"Now, please ask Mr. Sanada to testify about the blank time between leaving the lobby of Queen Cesarabile and reappearing."
[~Blank time between leaving the lobby of Queen Serissabeth and reappearing~]
[Testimony begins]
"Since we boarded the ship and separated to prepare for the magic show, I haven't seen my teacher and junior sister since then."
"I thought it was strange at the time, but I thought they were just preparing for a magic trick in a secret room."
"Until I appeared as Kaito Kidd and sent out the pigeon as a signal, they still hadn't appeared."
"I guess something happened to the teacher and junior sister, and they might be absent from this performance."
"But when someone outside said they saw Kaito Kidd, the teacher and his junior sister didn't show up yet."
"I knew something was probably wrong, so I left the hall to look for the teacher and the junior sister."
"After I searched all the possible hiding places on the cruise ship, I heard gunshots."
"I immediately rushed in the direction of the gunshots and saw the teacher's body."
“This is my experience in action during this so-called blank period.”
The presiding judge nodded and left the hall to look for the missing teacher and junior sister because he was worried about them.
This was a good enough reason to leave the lobby, and the content of the free time...
Just search in the easy-to-hide places throughout the cruise ship, right?
It doesn't sound like there's anything wrong with it.
"Mr. Sanada, you said you searched the cruise ship for easy hiding places..."
"Have you ever noticed Miss Koshimizu Nanatsuki?"
At this moment, Gui Yueying at the prosecutor's seat suddenly spoke.
Speaking of this, Kazuzo Sanada was obviously a little confused.
"Of course not. Didn't Miss Yueshui always follow Mr. Xiangyuan?"
"Why did I notice Miss Koshimizu while searching?"
That means... you haven't looked at the rear of the cabin?
If you want to find someone, the first step should be to go to the back of the cruise ship deck where not many people go, right?
The young prosecutor's mind was turning.
The hedgehog-headed magician started asking questions without any hesitation.
"Well, I will exercise my right to question you as a lawyer, Mr. Sanada, and I will question you."
"In the seventh sentence of your testimony, you said that you searched the cruise ship in places where it was easy to hide."
"But you didn't see Nanatsuki Koshimizu hidden in the valuables box at the back of the cruise ship."
"Excuse me, where are you searching?"
Xiang Yuanguang took a sip of coffee.
This is obvious. If you want to go to the second floor of the cruise ship, you will inevitably have to go to the staircase at the back of the cruise ship. As long as you go to the staircase, you will most likely notice a strange-shaped box of valuables that is obviously hidden.
What's more, Conan was still verifying his guess next to the box one minute before the blank time.
The next minute shows Inspector Nakamori rescuing people at the box.
In other words, Kazuzo Sanada had never been to the back or second floor of the cruise ship.
As for the top floor? That was even more impossible, because Xiang Yuanguang had climbed directly to the top floor stairs.
Since the first floor, second floor and top floor of the cruise ship do not fit the concept of Sanada Kazuzo looking for a place.
So, where else can Kazuzo Sanada search on the cruise ship?
