The presiding judge showed a hint of surprise on his face, and he asked stutteringly.
"Then, what is the true identity of this spy? Who is this spy?" In response to the presiding judge's question, Dante spread his hands and gave a disappointing answer.
"I don't know. If I knew, I wouldn't be filing a lawsuit here, right?"
"But I guess Virgil and his assistant are on the same page, which is..."
"You are the tool the murderer used to make the special investigation team take poison!"
...Tool? Me, me?
Kimie Tsujimura stepped back subconsciously. She always regarded herself as a superior diplomat.
Now Dante had simply torn off this pathetic identity advantage from her, which immediately changed her mood.
(The heart lock... trembled? Although I know that normal words can also break the heart lock, I didn't expect that other people's words can directly cause damage to the heart lock.)
There was a hint of surprise in Xiang Yuanguang's eyes. After all, no one except him would launch a fierce attack when the witness showed a heart lock. No, this didn't seem to be surprising.
Because the heart lock is ultimately a person's psychological defense mechanism, it is just intuitively materialized by the system for him to see. If it were just a matter of breaking through the heart lock, he seemed to have seen it a long time ago.
For example, Conan used Kogoro Mouri's identity to make inferences, but he only deduced the murderer's method of killing and the tools he used. He even made the murderer kneel down and confess without any specific evidence.
His method of using heart locks and logical chess to forcibly break down the target's psychological defenses, causing the other party to lose control of their emotions or reveal hidden secrets, was exactly the same...
(In other words, Conan just doesn't know that he can use the Heart Lock effect, or his method is not as intuitive and effective as mine, so he thinks my Heart Lock ability is the same as magic?)
The blue hedgehog thought of this and shook his head. From this point of view, which detective in this world does not have some extraordinary and bizarre factors? He can break down other people's psychological defenses with just a few words. If he had not gone to Shikoku...
Perhaps Junya Tokatsu will use the same method to deal with Kana Mizuguchi, the maid classmate of Nanatsuki Koshimizu.
"That's right, just as Mr. Dante said, the real murderer was able to achieve his goal of killing the special operations team members because of Mrs. Tsujimura's existence."
Conan had no idea what Xiang Yuanguang was thinking. He just hid behind the last row of seats and continued to think intently about his red bow.
"If Mrs. Tsujimura and Mr. Tsujimura had not gone to the diplomatic embassy and used the diplomatic embassy's tea sets to serve tea to the members of the special operations team, those people would not have touched the tea sets at all, and there would naturally be no question of poisoning."
"So, the reason why Mrs. Tsujimura appeared at the right time when Mr. Diplomat was talking to the members of the investigation team was actually arranged in advance by the real murderer."
But when it comes to this, a new problem arises——————
Gui Yueying asked with some confusion.
"That is to say, Tsujimura Kimie didn't actually poison the place. The real cyanide poison was applied the night before. But if that's the case, then what about the 350 milligrams of cyanide that Tsujimura Kimie purchased?"
"Did she put the cyanide she bought into the bottle containing nearly ten grams of cyanide? Was that bottle really owned by Tsujimura Kimie? Then..."
"Is it possible that the tea set in the diplomatic embassy was poisoned by Tsujimura Kimie, who is also a diplomat, using cyanide in the bottle the night before, so that there is obviously less cyanide in the bottle?"
If Conan's hypothesis is likely to be true, then Hotaru Onitsuki's reasoning is equally likely to be true.
After all, as a diplomat, Kimie Tsujimura was qualified to enter the diplomatic embassy the day before the incident, which means that it is entirely possible that she poisoned the tea set after the cleaning staff had put it in place and then left... right?
Is that right? Right? Or is it... impossible?
Chapter 455: Reversed Mask (27)
"Theoretically, this possibility does exist, but Miss Hotaru, since you know that Tsujimura Kimie and Tsujimura Isao are both diplomats, you should know that their actions are almost the same time, right?"
Taiwan Novel Network → twkan.com
"According to the questioning of the diplomatic embassy staff by Inspector Shiratori, we learned that Tsujimura Kimie left the diplomatic embassy in Tsujimura Isao's car, and then further questioned Tsujimura Isao's only son, Takayoshi Tsujimura————"
"We can prove that Kimie Tsujimura and Isao Tsujimura returned to the Tsujimura residence at the same time, and through the testimony of the housekeeper of the Tsujimura residence, we can prove that Kimie Tsujimura did not leave the Tsujimura residence that night."
Kogoro Mori's voice did not stop and continued.
"In other words, unless the prosecutors have evidence to prove that Kimie Tsujimura left the Tsujimura residence that night, the prosecutors' suspicion that Kimie Tsujimura committed the crime is nonsense."
"Of course, the prosecutors may think that Tsujimura Kimie poisoned the tea set before leaving the diplomatic embassy, but this is impossible because the staff of the diplomatic embassy leave work later than the diplomats, and the tea set was placed in——"
"The diplomatic staff would clean and tidy up the tea sets before finishing their work. Cyanide can cause harm to the human body even if it comes into contact with the body, but the staff were not injured at the time."
"Therefore, whether it was Tsujimura Kimie who poisoned the four people before leaving, or left the diplomatic embassy and returned to poison them, both possibilities are not true, so the real murderer who poisoned the four people could not be Tsujimura Kimie."
...In other words, has Kimie Tsujimura been ruled out as a suspect in the murder?
The young prosecutor was a little confused, her face full of confusion, while Dante next to her sighed, snapped his fingers, and directly pointed out the problems in the other party's logic.
"The defense's assumption is interesting, but meaningless. Because the defense has not yet proved that the cyanide that poisoned the four victims was in the teacup instead of in the tea, so the reasoning based on this premise is meaningless."
"Mouri Kogoro, since you call yourself a famous detective, you should be able to find a way to prove it, right?"
At this time, Toshimitsu Tsujimura in the dock was completely confused. What the two sides were talking about was beyond his thinking range, and he fell into a state similar to a computer crash.
The problem now is not that Kimie Tsujimura accidentally killed a member of the special investigation team, but that Kimie Tsujimura colluded with a mysterious organization to murder a member of the special investigation team...
This kind of thing sounds too strange. Although Tsujimura Kimie and Tsujimura Isao both think that they are very prestigious diplomats, Tsujimura Toshimitsu, as a university professor, knows that the status of a diplomat is just that after all.
How could he be involved in such a major case that actually involves public security?
"…Perhaps the Tsujimura family really did send it."
Tsujimura Toshimitsu murmured to himself somewhat sadly, and for a moment he didn't know what to do after he was acquitted.
If Xiang Yuanguang knew that Tsujimura Toshimitsu was still thinking about acquittal, he would definitely pat Lao Deng's shoulder seriously and say in a very serious manner - [Don't think about acquittal, think about how to operate a sewing machine].
Although it is true that you, Lao Deng, did not kill anyone, but the fact that you took the blame for and shielded Tsujimura Kimie's murder is set in stone. Even if you are found not guilty of the murder charge, the procuratorate will bring charges of other crimes afterwards!
"Mr. Dante, don't worry. Miss Ying just asked about the amount of cyanide, but I haven't answered it yet. Now, I will tell you the rest of the truth."
Conan leaned over and looked at Hotaru Kizuki and Dante at the prosecutor's table, then spoke to his bow-tie voice changer.
"First of all, I want to correct Miss Hotaru's words. Tsujimura Kimie actually poisoned the case."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present frowned, somewhat puzzled.
The blond judge was even more confused. He shook his head and asked in confusion.
"But didn't the defense claim before that Tsujimura Kimie didn't poison the tea or the tea walls? Why are they now saying that Tsujimura Kimie actually poisoned the tea? Isn't this contradictory?"
Snap——Xiang Yuanguang snapped his fingers, raised the coffee cup and pointed it at the presiding judge, causing the presiding judge to subconsciously move aside. Then the presiding judge realized that Xiang Yuanguang simply had something to say.
The blue hedgehog took a sip of coffee and then spoke easily.
"Is it contradictory? Actually, it is not contradictory, Your Excellency the Judge. As long as we start from the motive for the murder, we can easily come to this conclusion——————"
"However, there was no need for the organization to kill Tsujimura Isao because he was just a temporary receptionist and had no idea about the Silver Star incident. Therefore, the organization had no motive to kill him."
"Unfortunately, Tsujimura Isao's wife, Tsujimura Kimie, had exactly this motive, and she also purchased 350 milligrams of cyanide from the Tojo Clan, and Tsujimura Isao died of cyanide poisoning."
The blond judge was startled and immediately realized what the defense meant.
"Is the defense's claim that there were two murderers in this case, one was an unknown person who poisoned, and the other was Tsujimura Kimie who used cyanide to kill? And the people they killed were different?!"
Such words made Tsujimura Kimie, who was standing behind the testimony desk, a little uneasy. She slammed the table with both hands and spoke loudly.
"No, since your reasoning says that the cyanide poison is placed on the wall of the teacup, then neither I nor the so-called organization can plan which cups the special investigation team members will use, right?"
"According to normal logic, shouldn't we smear cyanide poison on the walls of all four teacups in the tea set? This will ensure that the target will die from cyanide poison, right?"
"Then isn't it normal that Tsujimura Isao died of cyanide poisoning? And what are you talking about? I bought 350 milligrams of cyanide. How can you prove such a thing?"
"Do you have the purchase receipt or have you found the seller? I think you are the one who forged the evidence. You are determined to put the blame on me at all costs and convict me so that you can pass on the blame!"
Tsujimura Kimie's words were too harsh for everyone present. Even the blond presiding judge's face darkened, because he had acknowledged that Tsujimura Kimie had purchased 350 milligrams of cyanide.
Now that Kimie Tsujimura says that the prosecution and the defense colluded to forge evidence, isn't that equivalent to scolding the presiding judge who acknowledged that the forged evidence was real evidence?
The presiding judge frowned, raised the gavel, and was about to lower it to ask the bailiff to kick the shrew out when he heard a loud bang on the wooden table!
Boom!
The coffee cup was smashed onto the table, and the coffee splashed out.
Such a performance immediately made Tsujimura Kimie behave himself. Zhongdeng swallowed his saliva and looked at Xiang Yuanguang, a little worried that this guy would get angry and throw a coffee cup at her, sending her straight to the infirmary...
"What you just said is complete bullshit!"
Xiang Yuanguang raised his finger and pointed at Tsujimura Kimie without any courtesy, and the wind moved with it.
Word bullet, fire!
"Let me thoroughly dispel your argument and put an end to our previous dispute!"
Chapter 456: Reversed Mask (28)
He already understood the context of the case and everything about it when Conan handed him the investigation materials, and now, he will use this to put an end to this incident once and for all!
Xiang Yuanguang clapped his hands on the table again with a serious expression.
"Tsujimura Kimie, you can deny that you purchased 350 milligrams of cyanide, but the evidence that the defense will present next can prove that you used about 350 milligrams of cyanide to kill people!"
"Listen to me, you bitch. It is true that Tsujimura Isao died from drinking tea laced with cyanide. However, the amount of cyanide in his body was the highest among the four victims, and it was to an abnormal level."
"But the forensic police officers cited the example of other victims dying from drinking tea laced with cyanide, and believed that Tsujimura Isao's cause of death was also drinking tea laced with cyanide, but he just drank more than the others—"
"Wrong, absolutely wrong. Yesterday, Detective Maori specially invited a medical consultant from the Metropolitan Police Department's Criminal Division to perform an autopsy, and then presented a second autopsy report. Guess what this autopsy report mentioned?"
The blue defense attorney sneered as he pulled the autopsy report out of the folder and slammed it on the table.
"This autopsy report pointed out that the distribution of cyanide toxins in Tsujimura Isao was abnormal. Pinholes were found on the back of his neck, and cyanide components were found near the pinholes!"
"That is to say, you had a motive to kill, and you took action. You were indeed one of the reasons that led to Tsujimura Isao's death. The subjective and objective facts are consistent. Your crime is obvious and there is no escape!"
Upon hearing this, Prosecutor Guiyue's face suddenly turned dark.
Although she was not in charge of this case and was only assisting Prosecutor Dante according to the instructions of the Procuratorate, she was still dissatisfied with the professional style of the forensic department when she heard the news.
Why is the work of the forensic department outsourced to medical consultants? And most of the autopsy reports that the forensic department finally gives out are problematic, while those given by medical consultants are basically correct...
In this case, why not just cut out the middleman, the forensic department, and outsource everything to medical consultants!
At this time, the police officers of the Forensic Division did not know that their salary assessment would face a severe test, and were praising Consultant Asai for his professionalism.
After all, the medical consultant volunteered to work overtime, and these forensic police officers can get salary performance even if they are idle for a while. Such a comfortable job is only available here, except for Inspector Megure's Investigation Division!
"…Hmm, why did that little detective come to see me instead of Attorney Xiang Yuan?"
Asai Narumi continued his forensic work in confusion, but he was still a little puzzled when he thought about what happened yesterday.
If Conan and Mouri Kogoro were not indeed acquaintances, and Conan said that he had asked him for help from Minamoto no Mitsuki.
He was probably still shopping and thinking about whether to buy some new clothes next...
"Let's go to the office and ask them after they are done..."
Whoosh——————
The wind was howling, pointing towards Tsujimura Kimie at the testimony stand.
"Still quibbling? I think you don't know your place. I want you to know the depth of my magic!"
Tsujimura Kimie retreated again and again, her heart lock was already shaky, but she was still quibbling.
"What you said makes absolutely no sense, it's nonsense! It's ridiculous, ridiculous...!"
"Xiang Yuanguang, since you said that I stabbed a needle containing cyanide poison into Tsujimura Isao's back..."
"Then, where is the needle? Where is it? Even if there is this needle, how can you prove that it is mine?!"
Seeing this, even Toshimitsu Tsujimura in the dock knew something was wrong.
Damn it, Tsujimura Kimie, I took the blame for you, and you actually hid something from me?
Lao Deng was roaring in his heart, but he didn't dare to open his mouth, for fear that the strong wind would blow his teeth off!
"That needle...if I think about it carefully, I should have seen it before, right?" At this time, Prosecutor Dante in the prosecutor's seat spoke thoughtfully, which made Tsujimura Kimie's heart sink to the bottom.
What? He actually saw the needle? But how is this possible?
She clearly saw the man in red dozing off on the small sofa in the diplomatic embassy. How could he see that?
Impossible, absolutely impossible! This is just the prosecutors trying to trick me into telling the truth!
Tsujimura Kimie's body was shaking, half with anger and half with fear.
But at this moment, Xiang Yuanguang snapped his fingers.
Kogoro Mori's voice sounded at just the right time.
