Conan's Victory is Justice

Chapter 119 In court, the secret confrontation with Yusaku Kudo

Reiko Kujo's expression was a little helpless.

The witness this time is Police Officer Megure from the Metropolitan Police Department, who was also an eyewitness to the murder scene of the Moon Shadow Island case.

For those in the criminal department, below the police department, policemen who need to go out to work, it is generally difficult to find a time to appear as a witness in court, after all, the crime rate in this world is so high.

In the first two public trials, none of these policemen had the opportunity to appear in court.

In this lawsuit, Kujo Reiko stood with Gu Meimen, and originally wanted to end the case today.

However, today she was suddenly notified that people from the Metropolitan Police Department would be present as witnesses.

She had no choice but to ask the judge to call witnesses.

"Approve the prosecutor's request!"

After the judge hit the hammer.

Soon, Officer Meguro was taken to the witness stand by the judicial police.

Still wearing the same brown windbreaker, bowler hat, and a big belly like a pregnant woman.

His face is rigid and serious, with the appearance of police justice.

"Witnesses are invited to state their opinions!"

Officer Mu Mu subconsciously looked towards the direction of the auditorium in the distance.

In the auditorium, Yusaku Kudo nodded to him.

Gu Meimen narrowed her eyes slightly.

The subtle movements of these two people were taken for granted by him.

His previous analysis was correct, Yusaku Kudo would indeed secretly find someone to deal with him.

He may have contacted the middle and high-level officers of the Metropolitan Police Department, and this was the time for Panasonic's low-level police officers to allow Officer Megure to appear in court smoothly.

In the next period of time, Police Officer Mu Mu told what he had seen and heard at the scene of the crime.

"At that time, at the death scene of Tsukage Island Village Chief Heiyan Tatsuji, we found a tape recorder with a tape of piano sonatas in it. The prisoner used a technique of reversing the tape to extend the running time of the tape by 10 minutes. Use this as proof of her absence..."

Officer Meguro said as he took out a few photos.

"These are the on-site photos taken by the forensic class. You can see that in the photo on the left, there is a red dot on the tape recorder, which is the button for reversing playback on the tape recorder. On the photo on the right, the red dot disappears, indicating that someone Approaching the evidence at the time, running the tape recorder, erasing the inverted red dot—”

After a pause, Police Officer Mumu stretched out a hand and pointed at Asakusa in the dock.

"And the only one who can do this is the suspect sitting here, Aso Shishi! At that time, she was staying at the scene as an autopsy doctor, and only she had the opportunity to get close to the tape recorder and eliminate the red dot on the tape recorder!"

Following Officer Megure's accusation, Conan in the gallery nodded repeatedly.

Police officer Megure's reasoning was when he shot Mori Kogoro with an anesthetic needle and stated to him through his mouth.

"Dad, do you think there is something wrong with this paragraph?"

Conan looked at his father beside him with a hopeful expression in his eyes.

Kudo Yusaku looked contemplative, then nodded: "No problem, logically speaking, it's logical."

"Right?" Conan smiled, "I just said that my reasoning is absolutely fine!"

At this time, Conan was very confident, after all, even his father agreed.

Therefore, it is absolutely impossible for the prisoner to make mistakes!
In the audience, after the witness, Police Officer Mu Mu, finished expressing his views.

It was the turn of the prosecutor Kujo Reiko to express his opinion again.

She had no choice but to stand up, follow the words of the witness, and ask the defendant Ma Cheng honestly.

"Excuse me, did the defendant move any evidence at the scene of the crime as the witness said?"

Asahi really lowered his head and remained silent.

Kujo Reiko asked again.

"Defendant, what is your reason for doing this?"

Asahi pursed his lips tightly, but still did not speak.

These are what Gu Meimen taught her.

The defendant has the right to silence in court, so she just needs to shut up and leave everything to the attorney.

In the auditorium, seeing this scene, Conan couldn't help showing a worried expression.

"Dad, will that lawyer come up with a sophistry trick to confuse this matter?"

Facing his son's question, Yusaku Kudo smiled slightly.

"He wouldn't do that. Sophistry is useless in this case."

"why?"

"Sophistry in court is generally used to blur or change the suspect's subjective consciousness when committing a crime. For example, if you pick up a wallet on the road and fail to return it to the owner, you are sued in court, and then you argue that the wallet is The mother lost it, and it looks exactly the same. At this time, the court will not be able to judge whether you did it to return the wallet to your mother, or to embezzle other people’s property.”

Yusaku Kudo spoke slowly, using his legal knowledge to popularize science for his son.

Conan nodded again and again, with curiosity in his eyes.

When other people taught him the law, it was difficult for Conan to agree with it, and he would not listen to it.

A self-centered person only insists on what he does is right.

But if it's Kudo Yusaku, he will listen carefully, because in his concept, he only agrees with his father.

"In this case, sophistry is useless, because the subjective consciousness in law is analyzed based on certain objective facts, emphasizing the 'possibility of reproach'. For example, two groups of drug trafficking organizations were captured at the transaction site At this time, if the drug dealer quibbles that the drugs were picked up by himself, and he does not know that the drugs are sold as flour, then this so-called subjectivity will not be established.”

"So the prisoner can only be silent! She is the murderer and committed a crime, so there is no way to quibble!"

Conan nodded excitedly.

Although I still don't understand what the "possibility of criticism" is, I feel like I understand a lot.

"Whether the suspect is the real murderer or not is yet to be concluded." Kudo Yusaku shook his head, and then said confidently, "But in this case, according to common sense, the other party should have no way to solve it."

At the same time, on the other side of the dock in the audience, the defendant chose to remain silent, and of course the attorney could not remain silent.

Facing Kujo Reiko's question, Gu Meimen did not speak, and first glanced at Kudo Yusaku in the auditorium.

Yusaku Kudo smiled at him.

"This old boy, want to fuck me?"

Gu Meimen narrowed her eyes slightly.

With his professional ability as a lawyer, he immediately analyzed the current situation.

Because evidence cannot be tampered with at the scene of the crime, it belongs to public common sense, if the suspect presses the button on the evidence, there is a possibility of criticism, and it is impossible to argue for this behavior.

If you argue forcibly, it is sophistry, and you will fall into the opponent's trick.

Gu Meimen thought secretly.

As expected of Yusaku Kudo, he was a little harder to deal with than his son.

So, here is a different way of thinking.

So, Gu Meimen coughed lightly, looked at Police Officer Mumu on the witness stand, and smiled.

"Excuse me, this witness police officer, are you sure that the person who pressed the recorder button was the suspect?"
