I'm in Conan, but I'm in Ace Attorney

"sure."

The hedgehog-haired lawyer took a sip of coffee and spoke slowly.

Prosecutor Sugiura proudly reached out and fiddled with his wig.

he said triumphantly.

"Yeah, I knew the defense had no way to prove... huh? Can you? Can you what?"

Prosecutor Sugiura suddenly realized what was happening and bent down.

Sweat broke out on his forehead and his pupils behind the glasses were filled with shock.

"This, this is impossible. You haven't even been to the crime scene. How can you prove that this book has a box?"

"I can tell you that the defendant's testimony...is not very credible. Don't try to prove it this way!"

pat.

He snapped his fingers again and opened the blue folder that Xiang Yuanguang had brought with him.

He pulled out a page from the inner compartment and held it up.

"Through this piece of evidence, the defense can directly prove the situation of the first edition of A Study in Scarlet."

"Yes, the defense requests to present new evidence————————"

"Evidence [Oki Ayako's autopsy report]!"

At this moment, whether it is Prosecutor Sugiura or Inspector Shiratori at the testimony desk.

They all showed shocked expressions on their faces, and spoke in unison.

"What? This piece of evidence can prove the situation of "A Study in Scarlet"?"

Chapter 377: The referee is a big reversal! (8)

Beads of sweat trickled down from where the wig was covering.

Prosecutor Sugiura, who was sweating profusely, quickly took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat from his forehead.

He opened his folder with some panic and searched through it quickly.

(What? Oki Ayako's autopsy report has this function? How come I didn't know about this?)

(Did I really neglect it? That’s impossible, right? I’m also an elite prosecutor!)

Crash----

Watching the prosecutor wearing a wig flipping through his folder in a panic.

Hattori Heiji, who was standing next to Genmizu, looked a little strange.

Don’t prosecutors in Tokyo even remember the contents of the autopsy report of the case?

Are you actually in such a panic at this time to reconfirm whether the situation mentioned by the defense exists?

The famous Kansai detective's gaze drifted and quietly fell on the autopsy report in Xiang Yuanguang's hand.

At the very bottom, there were a few big words written: [Latest Identification Results].

(Uh… the latest identification results? Is this… the updated autopsy report?)

(The defense was able to get an updated autopsy report? That's a real strength.)

However, the situation was even stranger than Hattori Heiji had imagined.

Prosecutor Sugiura's hand that was turning the pages of the book suddenly stopped, and then he raised his head abruptly.

He tore off the page he was reading, held it up and spoke loudly.

"Xiang Yuanguang, stop bluffing! Ooki Ayako's autopsy report didn't mention that at all!"

"This piece of evidence cannot prove the existence of the first edition of A Study in Scarlet!"

Show the evidence [Oki Ayako’s autopsy report]!

The Kansai detective, who had better eyesight, took a quick glance and was then startled.

Because, there were actually no words "latest identification results" in this autopsy report.

What's going on? The prosecutor's autopsy report is even more backward than the defense's?

"Hey, hey, hey, brother Xiang Yuan, your autopsy report is not forged, right?"

"How can a lawyer's autopsy report be more detailed than the official autopsy report?"

Hattori Heiji reminded Genkou quietly.

The presiding judge also nodded after reading the autopsy report submitted by Prosecutor Sugiura.

His opinion was consistent with that of Prosecutor Sugiura, that the autopsy report had nothing to do with "A Study in Scarlet".

The presiding judge sighed, looked at the hedgehog-headed lawyer, and said.

"Now is not the time for you to bluff, is it? If you continue like this, I will punish you!"

However, Xiang Yuanguang just took a sip of coffee and then looked at the presiding judge confidently.

He said it as a matter of course.

"[Oki Ayako's autopsy report] can certainly prove the situation of the first edition of "A Study in Scarlet"."

"The prosecutor's autopsy report could not prove it because the autopsy report he had was outdated."

"The autopsy report I have is an updated autopsy report, so there are relevant records."

Byd, updated autopsy report, right?

Prosecutor Sugiura's face changed and turned red on the spot. He pointed at Xiang Yuanguang and spoke loudly.

"If there were updates in the autopsy report, why didn't the prosecutor know about it?"

"Is the autopsy report in your hand a false testimony you fabricated for the sake of victory?!"

Even the presiding judge became serious, listened to the noise from the gallery, and lowered the gavel.

Boom, boom, boom, boom.

"Quiet, quiet! This court's trial requires silence!"

"Defense attorney, please explain the [updated autopsy report]!"

Hearing this, Xiang Yuanguang took a sip of coffee and then said calmly, "Prosecutor Sugiura, you should know that I took over this case at around 10 o'clock in the evening."

"And at that time... the medical examiner in charge of the autopsy report was still working overtime."

"When I arrived at the Metropolitan Police Department, I met with the medical examiner, who personally handed me the updated autopsy report."

"And have Detective Takagi upload the time and details of the updated autopsy report to the Prosecutor's Office."

"Then, when the medical examiner handed over the autopsy report to me, Inspector Shiratori was also at the scene."

"So... there is nothing wrong with this autopsy report. The problem lies with Prosecutor Sugiura who neglected his duties."

No, it was Tama, the medical consultant, who volunteered to work overtime until 10 pm to add information to the autopsy report?

And they also said that Inspector Shiratori was also at the scene? Who would believe such a thing?

Prosecutor Sugiura immediately turned to look at Shiratori Jinsaburo at the testimony stand.

After the initial shock, Shiratori Jinzaburo seemed to have reacted.

"Well, I did see the medical examiner in charge of the autopsy report handing over the case materials to Xiang Yuanguang who came late at night to get them."

"And I went to the office this morning to tell you that the evidence had been updated."

"As soon as I entered, you said that the evidence was solid and the testimony was abundant. I thought you knew about it."

"Then you just walked out. I didn't expect you to have checked the case files at all today."

I thought you not only knew about this matter, but also had some evidence hidden that I didn't know about.

It turns out that he was totally unaware of the disadvantage of his own evidence, and was acting as if "the advantage is mine".

Upon hearing this, Prosecutor Sugiura was stunned.

He thought about it carefully and it seemed that this was indeed the case and he had also said these words.

I also thought Inspector Shiratori was annoying, and I chased him away as soon as I entered.

I didn't expect there was such a big pit here.

"Is everything alright? Prosecutor Sugiura, this updated autopsy report clearly states it."

"Fragments of the wooden box were found inside the vehicle where Ayako Oki was burned to death."

"The handwriting is unclear, but we can make out the words 'blood' and 'research'."

"The defense can therefore assert that the first edition of A Study in Scarlet was in the box used to collect it."

"Moreover, the murderer's motive for killing was not because of the high value of this book, A Study in Scarlet."

Xiang Yuanguang's finger gently touched his forehead.

He put the coffee cup down, spread his hands, and shrugged.

"Inspector Shiratori just mentioned that the reason these people stayed in the Mycroft Hotel for three days."

"It's for that expensive event reward - the first edition of A Study in Scarlet."

"How could they not know the difference in value between the book with and without the box?"

"So, the defense believes that the murderer's motive was not this book, A Study in Scarlet."

"On the contrary, the book is just an expensive prop for him to use."

Hearing this, he wiped the sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief.

Prosecutor Sugiura asked with sweat dripping down his cheeks.

"Then, then please explain why you think so..."

“Because everyone else came for the book, and the box of the book showed up in the car.”

"Isn't it obvious that it exists as bait for the murderer to kill people?"

When Genmitsu spoke so naturally, Prosecutor Sugiura at the prosecutor's seat was speechless for a moment.

"Moreover, the defense was able to produce one piece of evidence that would prove the reasoning process."

"It's just that... Inspector Shiratori needs to leave the scene temporarily, so that the third victim of this case——"

"The injured Fujisawa Toshiaki must come and testify!"

Chapter 378: The referee is a big reversal! (9)

(Hmm... Is this how we fight in the Inquisition?)

(Not only must one make inferences, but one must also be able to produce evidence to prove the inferences at any time during the process.)

(In this case, the party with the advantage in evidence and information is invincible.)

Hattori Heiji is thinking.

This legendary lawyer who is quite famous in Tokyo does not seem to be as simple as he imagined.

Whether it was the presiding judge or the criminal judge, they all leaned towards his side.

And without even going to the scene, could he have grasped all the details of the case just by listening to the witnesses' testimonies?

So at ease... As expected, Xiang Yuanguang's strength can almost be described as unfathomable!

However, what Hattori Heiji didn't know was that Genmi-Ku was the right answer.

He remembered part of the case and the murderer's identity and motive.

All you have to do is keep acquiring information and then put it into the puzzle as pieces.
