Ignoring the Metropolitan Police Department high-ranking officials who were shouting at him from behind, Dante casually said that he had given a reason for the adjournment that Genkou could not refute.
"Even if you say so, the authenticity of this evidence still needs further investigation. One person's opinion alone cannot determine the final truth of this case."
"So, I think... we should adjourn this case for one day and let the prosecutors and the defense further confirm the relevant information about the Dongcheng Clan. What do you think? Presiding Judge?"
(What is Dante's purpose? To delay time? Why delay time? What is he thinking? What does he want to do? This situation is a bit troublesome...)
(If you want to prove that it was Kimie Tsujimura who committed the murder, the best way is to prove that the bottle of cyanide found in Tsujimura's home was purchased by Kimie Tsujimura, but if the prosecutor is determined to delay it for another day.)
(As of now, I don’t have any other way to make this guy change his mind. I can’t have a fistfight in the courtroom to decide whether this evidence needs to be verified or not.)
Xiang Yuanguang tapped his forehead lightly with his finger. Suddenly, he opened his eyes and slapped the table. Although he missed, it did not affect his aggressive flying finger attack.
"Regarding the matter of the East City Society, the defense needs to provide additional information."
After thinking about it, the presiding judge, who had already planned to make the decision to adjourn the court according to Prosecutor Dante's idea, turned around and looked at Xiang Yuanguang with some confusion, wondering what kind of additional information the blue hedgehog would provide in this situation.
It can't be possible that they have found a second method of killing people for Kimie Tsujimura, right?
If he didn't find a second method of killing, he would have no way of verifying the authenticity of the information in his hands.
Well, at this point in time, no matter what kind of additional information is given to Genkou, it is impossible for Tsujimura Kimie to be found guilty today.
"This morning, I, the defense attorney in this case, was attacked by members of the Dongcheng Society's affiliated organization. There were more than fifteen of them, right in front of my office. They specifically asked to kill me."
"Moreover, I learned from the leader of those who attacked me that someone paid them to kill me. Your Honor, I believe that the relationship between the East City Clan and this case may be more than just providing cyanide."
"Otherwise, how could they come to kill me just in time for the morning of the trial?"
Xiang Yuanguang's words immediately made everyone in the courtroom excited again.
This is exactly what the senior Metropolitan Police Department official said before.
As soon as Xiang Yuanguang got the information that might threaten the East City Society and was about to use it in the court, he was immediately blocked at the door of the office by the people of the East City Society who tried to kill him. How lawless is this? !
Illegal gangs must be attacked at any time! We have to fight against them! If they dare to sell poison to diplomats and kill the action team from the United States today, they will dare to kill other high-ranking officials tomorrow! Therefore, the East City Society must be attacked!
Hearing this, Dante looked at Xiang Yuanguang with some confusion, but in the end he didn't say much. He just looked very confused, and no one knew what he was confused about.
The presiding judge was no longer surprised by this. He had read the investigation records when Xiang Yuanguang killed those thugs on Yueying Island. Beating up a dozen members of the Yakuza was nothing.
However, the people from the Dongcheng Society are so arrogant, it seems that they really do not take this diplomatic incident seriously. To deal with these villains, we must use heavy blows!
Boom, boom, boom, boom.
Lowering the gavel, the presiding judge of the First Court spoke solemnly.
"After this adjournment, please ask the prosecutors to immediately investigate the relevant matters of the Dongcheng Society and confirm whether the attack on lawyer Xiang Yuan by the Dongcheng Society this morning is related to this case and confirm the authenticity of the evidence presented by lawyer Xiang Yuan."
"After this recess, please pay attention to your own safety. If necessary, you can apply for asylum and protection from the police. If you want to continue investigating the case, please put your own safety first!" "Bailiff, please temporarily detain the witness Tsujimura Kimie as a criminal suspect and wait for the trial at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning. Please take the defendant Tsujimura Toshimitsu out of this court and send him back to the detention center to wait for the trial the next day."
"Now, this court declares that the case of the murder in the diplomatic embassy is temporarily adjourned!"
Looking at the backs of the bailiff taking Tsujimura Toshimitsu and Tsujimura Kimie away, Genmitsu touched his chin. He always felt that something seemed to be wrong with this case, but he couldn't tell what it was for a moment.
Uncle Maori next to him suddenly patted Xiang Yuanguang on the shoulder with a serious look on his face.
...?
When I put a question mark, it's not that I have a problem, but that I think you have a problem.
The death rate and crime rate in Beika-cho are so high. How can Kamuro-cho be as chaotic as Beika-cho? If it is really more serious than Beika-cho, then I was right to encourage the police to find the Tojo Clan today.
Xiang Yuanguang was secretly complaining in his heart. On the surface, he seemed to have learned a lesson, but in reality, he didn't take it to heart at all. He was thinking about where to start the next investigation.
However, before Xiang Yuanguang could think too much, Prosecutor Dante suddenly appeared beside them, as if he had teleported over, and his speed of movement was amazing.
"I say, Virgil, are you interested in going to Kamurocho with me? How about we see who can investigate faster? I bet, just like before, I'll always be faster!"
"That's not necessarily true. Now is now, and the past is the past. If you treat the present as the past, why don't you compare it with my infancy?"
The blue hedgehog sneered. Although he had no idea what "before" Dante was talking about, he could not lose in momentum. They had all emerged from a sea of fire and swords, and they could not lose face here!
Tick, tick, tick.
The sound of footsteps came from the corridor. Xiang Yuanguang subconsciously looked towards the corridor, but the door of the courtroom blocked his view and he could not see anything, so he couldn't help but squint his eyes.
(Why does this feel strangely familiar? Is there someone I don't see who is here to listen to the trial? Who could that person be...?)
At this moment, a shocking event was happening in Kamurocho, far away from Beikacho.
Looking at the leaders of various groups of the Tojo Clan who were not seen in the past but were all present today, the current Tojo Clan President Sera Masaru subconsciously wanted to sigh, feeling a headache over this matter.
Because the funds that Tojo Clan kept in the bank vault disappeared quietly, and the amount was... 10 billion yen!
Of course, if Sera Masaru knew that the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department and the secret police were completely enraged by Beikacho's instigation of Minamoto Mitsuki and were going to crack down on the Tojo Clan, he probably wouldn't have such a headache.
Because there are too many things to do and there is no point worrying about it. This is no longer something that he, the leader of the Dongcheng Association who acts as a lubricant, can solve. He must contact his other helpers to help.
Chapter 431: Adjournment Vermode
—————May 28, 12:35 p.m.——————
—————Tokyo area, restaurants——————
"So, it looks like Kamurocho is a place we must go to no matter what."
"Well, she and I went over to check it out this morning. It's no big deal."
"At most, it's a group of people who walk on the road for no apparent reason and start fighting whoever they bump into, and the passing police just ignore it, or a group of people are there asking for protection money or something like that."
Hattori Heiji said some confusing words that were surprising, but the famous detective from Kansai seemed to have no idea about it.
(…This situation is already quite serious, compared to Beika Town.)
The blue hedgehog frowned and finished the bowl of rice in his hand in a flash, then turned to look at Nanatsuki Koshimizu next to him, trying to get a different answer from the expired high school detective.
But unfortunately, Nanatsuki Koshimizu felt his gaze and nodded directly, indicating that it was indeed the case. The situation in Kamurocho was just as Hattori Heiji said.
He couldn't help but sigh, and said to Yuan Guang helplessly, holding his forehead.
"So, there are a lot of thugs in Kamurocho, and if they bump into someone on the road, they will just start fighting... Tsk, why does it sound like a Pokémon battle, as long as the eyes make contact, the fight will start..."
"However, we have to go now. We don't know where the so-called [Source of the Sai River] is. Hattori, Koshimizu, have you found the location of this place?"
The source of the Sai River is the unique intelligence organization in Kamurocho that Kaga Ranmaru told Koshimizu Nanatsuki about before. It is said to have an independent base, and it is difficult for people without connections to find the location of the source of the Sai River.
But on the other hand, the existence of Saizhiheyuan is hidden, and he is well aware of the information of various places in Kamurocho. As long as we can find Saizhiheyuan, the truth of the investigation of Tojo Clan will naturally come to light.
Therefore, unless you go to Kamurocho and break into the headquarters of the Tojo Clan, the best way to get intelligence is to find this so-called largest intelligence organization in Kamurocho.
(If I could mobilize police forces like Dante did, I would have surrounded the East City Clan's headquarters in the afternoon. I would have known what was going on by asking them on the spot. Why did all this trouble come from?)
(Hmm, Conan seems to have disappeared since the trial ended this morning. Is he investigating something else? Or does he have any clues about the progress of another case?)
The blue hedgehog stroked his chin, waiting for others to solve the lunch problem while thinking about matters concerning the Tojo Clan, Kamurocho, and the Shinigami Elementary School students.
He had no idea that at this moment, someone was planning to target his upcoming trip to Kamurocho and put all the blame for this case on the Tojo Clan.
In the top office of the automobile company, the elder of the organization codenamed Pisk leaned on the chair, looking at the view of Tokyo city outside the window as usual, and was quite proud of his own abilities.
Without him, the boss wouldn't have the power of Tokyo, and the organization wouldn't be where it is today!
Beep—beep—beep—The cell phone rang, and Piske frowned, knowing that the person calling this time was no ordinary person.
Because it was his break time, the office landline and his regular mobile phone were not in use, so the person who called him must have been using the backup phone that he rarely used.
(Another member of the organization? Humph, you ruined my good mood. I have already told you what to do. With such a big advantage and a flying dragon on your face, what mistakes can there be?)
Piske took out his spare mobile phone from his pocket, glanced at the caller's information on the screen, shook his head, and then pressed the answer button.
"What's the matter? Has something gone wrong somewhere else? Or is there anything else that needs my help to clean up?"
"...I want to know if those members of the East City Society who went to kill Yuan Guang this morning are your people."
The voice on the other end of the phone was calm and cold, but it always made people feel dangerous.
In response to this, Pisk sneered indifferently, leaned back in his boss chair, and said relaxedly.
"...Really? What if I tell you that all the people you sent were killed by Xiang Yuanguang, and that they have now traced the source to the Dongcheng Society and are going to open your box this afternoon?"
Somewhere in Kamurocho, Vermouth, wearing a mask and with a hint of coldness in her voice, said something that made Pisco's heart stop, and for a moment he didn't know what to say in response!
"You, what did you say? There are more than a dozen people, and you can't even solve it with a lawyer?!"
This careless elder of the organization was horrified and finally realized that he seemed to have stabbed something incredible. Moreover, people had already found the Dongcheng Society, so it was only a matter of time before they found him!
A few drops of sweat dripped from his forehead. Piske swallowed his saliva, forced himself to calm down, thought about the countermeasures for this matter, and finally said it in a decisive tone.
“Vermouth, since you’re asking me this question, you should have already arrived at Kamurocho, right? I’ll tell you the name of the person I’m working with, and you’ll take care of that guy for me!”
"Of course, I won't let you do it alone. All members of other organizations who can go will go and obey your command. Besides, when this operation is over... I will give you a generous reward!"
A generous reward... well, only an elder like Pisk who has fallen behind the times and is behind the pace of the organization would say something like this, doesn't he know...?
As long as everything goes according to plan, the organization will be able to control an entire fertile country as a backup base.
Vermouth chuckled and hung up the phone, then turned to look at the Jinshan Group's base not far away.
(The progress of the defense lawyer's investigation may not be that fast. As long as the members of the Jinshan Group who traded with Pisk are dealt with first, the possibility of Pisk's identity being exposed can be covered up.)
(No, if people were to mistakenly believe that the member of the Jinshan Group was killed by Xiang Yuanguang, I could kill this character who gave me the most headache in this incident early.)
(As the saying goes, anyone with a spiky haircut can be Xiang Yuanguang...)
Vermouth took out the forged lawyer's medal from her pocket and quickly locked onto her target.
(This is the easiest thing for me.)
Chapter 432: Adjournment, Don’t Blame Me for Being Despicable
—————May 28, 13:20 p.m.——————
————Tokyo area, Kamurocho————
Tick, tick, tick.
Accompanying the two detectives Hattori Heiji and Koshimizu Nanatsuki, Genmitsu held the Demon Hunting Sword in one hand and walked up the stairs of the underground light rail station step by step, and soon came to the ground.
Then, in his sight, the most eye-catching thing was the tall sign in front of him that read "The Best Street in the World", which carried a certain arrogance.
"Kamurocho... I didn't expect that just a distance away would lead to such a big change."
The blue hedgehog's gaze swept across Tenkaichi Street in front of him, and finally stopped at a prop that was unlikely to appear in Conan's world - a surveillance camera.
In this place where gangsters are rampant and fights break out at any time, there are actually surveillance cameras installed in hidden places on the streets. In a sense, this is indeed more advanced than Beika Town.
Although, considering the conduct of the Kamurocho police, it doesn't make much difference whether there are surveillance cameras or not.
"Hattori, Koshimizu, when we were at the restaurant earlier, I remember you said you found traces of the source of the Sai River. It's near Nishi Park in the northwest corner of Kamurocho... Is that right? I don't remember it very clearly."
Xiang Yuanguang touched his chin and asked the two detectives behind him in a confirmatory manner.
In response, Hattori Heiji nodded affirmatively and added in his very distinctive accent.
"That's right. I specifically found several local intelligence dealers to confirm it. Also, when I went to West Park, I clearly saw a few guys disguised as homeless people watching over there."
"When Koshimizu and I approached, they stopped me and wouldn't let us pass, as if they were hiding something. Then I checked the map and found that Kamurocho seemed to be missing a piece."
"There's an area in Kamurocho that has no way to get in, either in the city or the suburbs. It's surrounded by a wall. It's a bit difficult to get in by climbing over the wall, but going in from the front... well, I'm not that rough."
Nanatsuki Koshimizu turned her gaze to Hattori Heiji, and without any consideration for the dark-skinned detective's feelings, she directly told him the real reason why Hattori Heiji didn't go in from the front.
"You can't beat him without a knife. There are four or five people at the entrance of West Park, and there are probably more than ten people inside. If you want to fight them head-on, you have to come here in person."
...Why do you make it sound like I'm the kind of person who can only solve problems with force?
The blue hedgehog shook his head and sighed.
Everyone has misjudged me, Xiang Yuanguang. I am so quiet and reasonable, how can I fight back head-on?
But then again, when reasoning doesn't work, it's okay to attack head-on. It's best to resolve the issue quickly.
Tick, tick, tick, tick.
The sound of hurried footsteps, and their large number, made people feel that they were not friendly.
Chu, the best among the three detectives, focused his attention at a fork in Tianxia No. 1 Street at the same time. He saw that the crowd over there had parted, and some people gave way. The next moment, a group of ferocious people appeared!
"Well, what is this? A welcoming ceremony for me? Dante and the others haven't taken action against Kamurocho yet?"
