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

It seemed that ever since he entered the office and greeted Mr. Yuan, the little girl had been focusing her attention on him. Could it be that she was confused about her gender?

In fact, Haibara Ai was just thinking that if she didn't know Nanatsuki Koshimizu's name, when the three of them entered the office at the same time, would she think that Nanatsuki Koshimizu was the "Mr. Asai" mentioned by Genmyou.

If you think about it carefully, it is very likely that this is the case. As it stands now, Nanatsuki Koshimizu is the least feminine of the three...

Without waiting for Asai Narimi to say hello, Haibara Ai had already walked away in small steps and disappeared from Asai Narimi's sight, which made the current special adviser of the Metropolitan Police Department feel helpless.

"Mr. Xiang Yuan, Senior Dante said that the information you told him is very valuable. When he finishes his mission and returns to Tokyo, he will treat you to pizza——————"

Gui Yueying's voice came, and as expected, she was planning to talk about something with Xiang Yuanguang.

Asai Narumi put his hands in his pockets, remembering that the person who came to him during the diplomatic embassy murder incident was not Mukai Genmitsu himself but Edogawa Conan, the little boy in a blue suit who looked like he was still in elementary school.

I remember that on the eve of the Tsukikage Island incident, he noticed that Conan and Xiang Yuanguang had a relationship similar to that of partners. Although it was strange why Xiang Yuanguang, a lawyer, would become a partner with a child...but he didn't intend to ask unless the big lawyer said it.

Now there is another child in Xiang Yuan Wan Neng Office. Does Xiang Yuanguang intend to add another child assistant as a helper? It is really touching...

"Although I know Mr. Xiang Yuan would not do anything illegal, it is too strange to always ask children for help. Employing child labor should be illegal..."

The Special Counsel muttered something.

Chapter 484: On Temporary Prosecutor Gold

"Mr. Xiang Yuan, Senior Dante said that the information you told him is very valuable. When he finishes his mission and returns to Tokyo, he will treat you to pizza——————"

When Gui Yueying mentioned the words that Dante had asked someone to contact her and asked her to pass on to Xiang Yuanguang, Xiang Yuanguang couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and secretly complained in his heart - will you die if you just call or send a message to me?

He had tried to get through to the phone number Dante left but couldn't, so he finally asked someone to send the information to Dante.

"Although Senior Dante seems unreliable, speaks strangely, and is cynical in the courtroom, he has a very high taste for pizza. He should be able to find the best fast food restaurant in Tokyo by then, right?"

Generally speaking, after the young prosecutor talks about Dante's shortcomings as a prosecutor, she should then praise his professional ability. However, she took a different approach and talked about his ability to find pizza, which is really embarrassing.

Xiang Yuanguang brought out a cup of coffee from somewhere, took a sip, and for a moment he didn't know what to comment on. He couldn't just say "I don't eat pizza", right?

Wow——————

The chair next to the table was pulled away and Asai Narimi sat down. He didn't hear the conversation clearly, but he noticed that Kizuki Hotaru mentioned pizza, so he asked curiously.

"Are you talking about pizza? Why did the topic suddenly turn to this? Are you hungry?"

“…Pizza is not important. Not at all.”

Xiang Yuanguang was ashamed. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and changed the subject.

"So Miss Kizuki is here just to bring a message for Dante? If it's just to bring a message, there shouldn't be a need for the person to come to the office in person, right? The weather is so hot, I don't want to go out unless it's something..."

This sentence seemed to remind Gui Yueying. The young prosecutor nodded and finally remembered that she had to go to the office to find Xiang Yuanguang. She said with some distress.

"Mr. Xiang Yuan, do you know the active temporary prosecutor in Tokyo, Gold? He left a deep impression on others in the Tokyo District Court..."

"Coupled with the other party's special status as a temporary prosecutor, some people eventually wanted to try to become a temporary prosecutor and stand in the court as a prosecutor."

"Then that person came to me and said that he hoped I could take him under my wing so that he could speak in court as a temporary prosecutor in the future. But this kind of thing is against the rules no matter how you look at it..."

Xiang Yuanguang's expression became serious. He touched his chin and nodded in agreement. That was indeed the case. After all, not everyone could become a provisional prosecutor. At least one had to have a good identity.

He originally found Kuma Sukawa to persuade the other party and use the temporary prosecutor system to let him appear as temporary prosecutor Gold, also after confirming that he himself was a lawyer and had a bag of evidence proving the other party's guilt.

Moreover, a temporary prosecutor is a temporary person who can appear in court as the prosecutor of the trial court only when the original prosecutor has already filed a lawsuit but is unable to appear in court due to some special reasons. This opportunity is rare.

Moreover, if the interim prosecutor loses the case, the original prosecutor will also be punished. That is no joke. This kind of behavior is indeed very bad.

"Looking at it this way, there are indeed problems. The temporary prosecutor Gold who set a precedent was indeed a bit too unruly, causing Miss Guiyue to face such a dilemma."

Asai Narimi also nodded in agreement. In fact, before the trial of the Moon Shadow Island series of cases began, Xiang Yuanguang had already confessed his identity to him, which means that he knew that Xiang Yuanguang was the temporary prosecutor Gold. "But Mr. Gold is originally a relevant practitioner with legal knowledge. He appeared in court as a temporary prosecutor because he had no choice. We can't generalize."

"...Mr. Asai, how do you know that Gold is a professional with legal knowledge?"

The young prosecutor turned her head and looked at Asai Narimi with some confusion. She remembered that the identity of the temporary prosecutor Gold had not been revealed until now, and could not be found in the prosecutor's office.

It is said that the only prosecutor in Tokyo who knew the identity of temporary prosecutor Gold at that time was... Prosecutor Kigetsu Ryuun, who is still working a sewing machine in prison.

"Because Prosecutor Gold had deliberately promoted the staggered trials, I found him and thanked him afterwards. That was when I learned his true identity."

Asai Narimi said this, and Kizuki Hotaru did not intend to delve into this issue, she said hesitantly.

"In fact, the procuratorate believed that there was no problem with his identity and that he met the qualifications to be a prosecutor. It was just that he could not handle cases as a prosecutor for a long time, so he turned to the identity of a temporary prosecutor."

"But I'm a little confused as to why he came to me specifically, because the other prosecutors in the Prosecutor's Office, such as Prosecutor Kuma, Prosecutor Kujo, and Prosecutor Sugiura, are all experienced prosecutors."

"And I'm just a rookie prosecutor who graduated from the United States Advanced Judicial Academy and has been in office for less than a month. It's too strange for you to come to me, right?"

It is indeed strange to bring up such a thing. If one really wants to find a formal prosecutor to familiarize himself with the work in order to appear in court as a temporary prosecutor, then the more experienced the prosecutor should be, the more suitable he should be.

The so-called qualified newcomer chose Gui Yueying, a new prosecutor who had been in office for less than a month. It was hard to believe whether the other party really intended to become a temporary prosecutor.

Xiang Yuanguang touched his chin, feeling that something was indeed a little wrong. He wondered whether he should find an opportunity to transform himself into Prosecutor Gold and go to the Procuratorate again to sort out this matter.

However, the equipment he used to disguise himself as Prosecutor Gold is still in Kuma Sukawa's possession. Since Prosecutor Gold's identity will not be used for a long time, he has not gone to get it.

So much time had passed that he had forgotten about the instrument. It was only when Gui Yueying mentioned Gold that he remembered it.

"So, who is the person who wanted to be a temporary prosecutor but asked you to familiarize yourself with the affairs of the trial court?"

The blue hedgehog asked after taking a sip of his coffee with some confusion.

The young prosecutor thought about it for a moment and then replied in the affirmative.

"It is said that he is a person with criminal work experience. His name seems to be... Amuro Toru."

Chapter 485 The New Job of the Working Emperor

...Who? Amuro Toru? So Furuya Rei suddenly found himself a new job?

Xiang Yuanguang almost lost his grip on his coffee cup, with a look of surprise on his face. In his impression, Amuro Toru should be responsible for investigating Miyano Akemi's affairs, so how come he was doing other things in just a few days?

His surprised expression naturally caught the attention of several people on the field, and Gui Yueying asked curiously.

"What's wrong? Mr. Xiang Yuan, is there anything strange about this name?"

Xiang Yuanguang coughed twice and took another sip of coffee to cover up his embarrassment.

He was the one who gave this name to Furuya Rei. Now the other party is using this name to contact Kigetsuki Hotaru with a clear conscience. As the only person who knows about it, how could he not feel embarrassed?

"If it's him, I don't think it's surprising... After all, he's a working emperor. I'm not surprised at how many jobs he changes and how many places he goes to in a day, even with the new scene of the court."

If you must say it, as a public security officer, Fūya Rei does have experience in criminal cases, so it's not surprising that he said this to Kizuki Hotaru. Moreover, due to the special nature of his identity, it is impossible for him to stay in the Procuratorate as a prosecutor for a long time.

As for why Furuya Rei came to the Criminal Department as a prosecutor instead of going to the Public Security Department, which had the closest relationship with him... maybe he was worried that Kusakabe Makoto, the ace prosecutor of the Public Security Department, would have a cerebral hemorrhage and explode with him.

"…But prosecutor isn't something that can be considered a part-time job, right?"

The young prosecutor tilted her head, her confusion visibly evident.

Just when Xiang Yuanguang was thinking about how to explain the situation of Furuya Rei to Guiyue Ying, Furuya Rei himself was standing quietly in a high-rise room in a residential building somewhere, looking at the Xiangyuan Universal Office not far away and fell into deep thought.

Although he knew that Gui Yueying and Xiang Yuanguang had a good relationship, it was too outrageous for a prosecutor to ask a defense lawyer for help when he was entangled by a new junior...

He raised the telescope in his hand and tried to see the scene inside through the window of Xiangyuan Universal Office so that he could roughly judge the specific situation. However, the curtains of the office had never been opened.

"I feel like that little girl will mention my name soon, and then she'll ask her hedgehog friend to call and ask about the details——————"

Furugaya Rei sighed and muttered to himself. His goal in approaching Kizuki Hotaru was naturally to use Kizuki Hotaru, the newly arrived prosecutor, to integrate into the atmosphere of the Criminal Department Prosecutor's Office to facilitate further investigation.

Although he did not enter the courtroom and did not know the situation inside the courtroom on the day of the arrest of Curacao, he speculated that there must be a reason why the mysterious gunman could appear in the courtroom so suddenly.

For example, the sharpshooter was very familiar with the internal structure of the Tribunal, so he was able to immediately determine the location where the police intended to detain Ireland and Pisk, and then ambush them and escape unscathed.

And based on the witness's description of the black-clad gunman's body shape, he could probably rule out the three presiding judges who appeared most frequently in that courtroom as suspects - these three brothers were simply copy-and-pasted with only their hairstyles changed.

Then, Furuya Rei narrowed his suspicions to the lawyers and prosecutors who frequently appeared in the courtroom. First of all, he could rule out Genkou because there were eyewitnesses who saw him being sniped, thus ruling out the possibility that he staged the incident himself.

In addition, there is the lawyer who is often active in that courtroom, the rookie lawyer Sono Nakaki who only handles civil cases, and Eri Kisaki, who was scolded by the client at the time and has a high attendance rate because she is an ace lawyer... This person's gender does not match, and she has been active in Tokyo. According to the information collected from Kogoro Mouri, the possibility that Eri Kisaki has extraordinary marksmanship and physical skills can be basically ruled out.

Then there are the prosecutors from the Ministry of Public Security. Because the prosecutors from the Ministry of Public Security do exactly what the public security police do, except for the ace prosecutor Kusakabe Makoto, who may be dissatisfied with the Ministry of Public Security and take negative actions, the others can be cleared of suspicion.

And Kusakabe Makoto... According to Furuya Rei's observation, this guy doesn't seem to have that kind of fighting ability. All he does every day is fight lawsuits and type code on his computer, and he rarely even exercises.

In the end, Furuya Rei narrowed down the possibility of the black-clad gunman to several prosecutors in the Criminal Division. Because of Vermouth's existence, he did not dare to assert that he could not be a suspect because of his different gender.

Because most of the criminal prosecutors do what they want, Furuya Rei simply entered the criminal prosecutor's office and planned to judge who is most likely to be the black-clad gunman by the way they handle the case and prosecute the case.

"It seems unlikely that it's Gui Yueying, so, is it someone else?"

Furutani Rei put down his telescope. It was said that Mr. Xiang Yuan was both literary and martial, and was proficient in wind magic and mind reading. Although he did not believe it, judging from his extremely high winning rate and martial arts skills, the rumors were not groundless.

The fact that he is both literate and martial is obviously true, but the magic of wind is most likely fake, because the other party is a famous black magician who is good at magic. It may be a special effect created by magic, but the mind-reading ability is very likely true.

It’s not that Xiang Yuanguang used a magic called mind reading, but that the other party is good at skills such as criminal psychology, and can judge whether the target is lying through the target’s micro-expressions and language, thus achieving the effect of mind reading.

Since Xiang Yuanguang and Gui Yueying have a good relationship now, it at least means that the other party has never suspected that Gui Yueying is the black-clad gunman. With the guarantee of this person who has considerable influence in the public security department, Gui Yueying's suspicion can indeed be ruled out.

Then the next target of suspicion would fall on prosecutors Reiko Kujo and Prosecutor Sugiura, because both Reiko Kujo and Prosecutor Sugiura were not in Tokyo for a period of time.

Reiko Kujo had gone to the United States for further studies and had only recently returned, while Prosecutor Sugiura had previously worked as a prosecutor in the Honkedai area and had been transferred to Tokyo for further studies, or gilding.

The final suspect is Kuma Sukawa, a senior prosecutor in Tokyo. This prosecutor has always been very low-key, but the success rate of the cases he is responsible for is quite high and he has almost never made mistakes.

Therefore, Furuya Rei might rank Kuma Sukawa last in his suspicions.

Just when he was about to end the observation, an accident happened.

Chapter 486 I test Shirley!

I saw Fūya Rei raising the telescope in his hand and moving the observation position from the living room on the first floor to an open guest room window somewhere on the second floor, and his sight suddenly focused.

The curtains at the window of the guest room were drawn open, and sunlight shone through the transparent glass onto the desk. A little girl who looked extremely familiar was sitting at the desk, flipping through the pages of a book.

"…It's too much of a coincidence. The pharmaceutical company that Shirley was suspected to be working at was burned down and Shirley's whereabouts were unknown. Then within a few days, a little girl who looked very similar to Shirley but younger appeared in the office?"

Furiya Ling was thinking in his heart. He couldn't believe that this was just a coincidence. There must be a reason behind everything. Maybe Shirley really didn't die in the fire, but escaped through some means...

As a researcher, Shirley's physical fitness was probably not good enough, and she also did not have all the qualities that other members of the organization should have. The other party probably could not have unlocked the handcuffs and escaped from the fire, but Shirley's body was not found where the handcuffs were.

At the same time, there were no signs of forced unlocking at the keyhole of the handcuffs that were burned by fire. The other party used a method to get rid of the handcuffs and escape from the fire without unlocking them.

If we ignore the possibility of conventional logic, if Shirley becomes smaller by rejuvenating, she can indeed escape from the handcuffs without struggling...

"…It's incredible just to think about this kind of thing."

Furiya Rei's fingers tapped lightly on the outer shell of the telescope. He listened to the sound of the telescope being knocked and felt a little hesitant. Regardless of whether the little girl was Shirley herself or not, just based on her appearance...

This appearance definitely proves that the other person is related to Shirley, at least a direct relative. If we can get in touch with the other person, we can make a further judgment.

If the other person is really Shirley, perhaps he can bring her back to the organization. At that time, the organization will most likely let Shirley continue to work in the pharmaceutical industry because of her appearance, and he can also use this opportunity to move deeper into the core layer...

"No, really. Now even Gin, the scavenger organization, has disappeared without a trace. Even if we really confirm that the other party is Shirley and bring her back, who can we contact the organization through?"

Suddenly, Fūya Rei murmured to himself, he shook his head and denied his previous idea. Now the organization has been silenced and he can't contact the organization. This method will definitely not allow him to make any further progress.

"Forget it. There's no point in thinking so much. I'll first find a chance to enter Xiang Yuan's Universal Office and contact that young lady. Even if Mr. Xiang Yuan doesn't allow me to contact her, I still have to go to school at such a young age."

There is always a chance to confirm the other party's identity. After all, there is no such thing as a thief who steals for a thousand days. Xiang Yuanguang could not really guard against him without knowing that he was already suspicious.

Furutani Rei put the telescope away, turned around, and planned to leave the room and continue collecting information on other prosecutors in the Criminal Prosecutor's Office. However, the moment he opened the door——

Crunch——————

The door next to him was pushed open almost simultaneously. Fūya Rei subconsciously turned his head to look at the direction where the sound came from, and the person who pushed open the door and walked out also subconsciously turned his head to look at him.

The two people's eyes crossed in the air, and the next moment it became intense, as if one could see several non-existent sparks flying, which immediately made Fūya Rei's mood extremely bad.

That's right, the person who appeared in front of him was the one he had always hated, the person whose organization codename was Rye Whiskey, Dai Moroboshi, or... Shuichi Akai. Although Genko had explained the situation of what he saw at the beginning, Furuya Rei would not easily believe what others said, because there were only three people at the scene at that time.

How could he, Akai Shuichi, and the dead Morobushi Keimitsu -- how could Genkou know the true situation at that time? Was it enough to just say something he saw in a comic that sounded like a trick to fool a child?

Furuya Rei's face darkened and he threw the small bag he was carrying into the room to prevent it from getting in the way. On the other side, Akai Shuichi clicked his tongue twice, and seemed surprised to meet Furuya Rei here.

However, because he saw the shrunken Miyano Shiho at the window of the Xiangyuan Universal Office, Akai Shuichi has a deeper understanding of the wonders of this world.

It was just that he ran into Furuya Rei when he went out. It was a trivial matter. At most, it would make his mood a little worse, but other than that, it would not have any impact on his mentality!

"Why are you here? What are your intentions? Did you see what happened just now?"

Furuya Rei's voice was cold and his words were blunt. Although he did not directly point out what Akai Shuichi saw, Akai Shuichi understood what Furuya Rei meant.
