That's why Kujo Reiko suddenly fell silent and stopped talking.

But just because Kujo Reiko doesn't speak doesn't mean that Kizuki Hotaru on the other side won't speak.

The young prosecutor tilted her head and said with some confusion.

"If we look at it from this perspective, we can rule out the possibility of suicide."

"So how do you rule out possible murder by a magic assistant?"

"I guess you must have invited your magic assistant at that time to the court, right?"

That's natural——on the premise that the intelligence has been handed over in advance.

The suppressive power that can be brought by the combination of Genmi Mukai and Kensuke Kumimon can almost be described as "maximum".

Xiang Yuanguang snapped his fingers, and the owner of magic venue A immediately left the testimony stand.

He did not return to the dock, but sat in the specially vacated witness stand.

Tick, tick, tick.

The door of the Grand Courtroom was pushed open, and another young man who looked a little older walked in.

He came to the witness stand, looked at the presiding judge wearily, and then spoke.

"I am Yokoyama Yuki's magic assistant, his childhood playmate and classmate, and I am now 29 years old." "Are you asking me if I murdered Yokoyama Yuki now?"

The magic assistant looked very tired, but that was not surprising.

If he is not the murderer, then he is also a victim in this case.

Not everyone can bear the burden of killing their own friend with their own hands.

Although answering this question might seem cruel, the young prosecutor still nodded.

If someone thinks that questioning witnesses would be cruel and therefore does not question them, then this person is probably not qualified to be a prosecutor.

Even Hotaru Kizuki, who looks like a junior high school student, is no exception.

"It should be you who brought it up, right? After all, you were the only one who could see this scene at the time."

The young prosecutor asked calmly and seriously.

"If you rule out the possibility that the deceased committed suicide, then the only possibility is that you are giving false testimony."

"Otherwise, what reason would the deceased have to suddenly return to the horizontal board to die when the nail bed fell?"

The magic assistant opened his mouth to speak, but no words came out.

Because he had been thinking about it for more than ten years, but still couldn't figure out why.

But at this time, Xiang Yuanguang sighed and shook his head.

"I've said it before, whether the deceased committed suicide or the magic assistant murdered him, neither possibility is true."

"Because the magic assistant wasn't the only witness at the time of the crime."

There is more than just... this one witness...! ?

Gui Yueying's sight instantly fell on the owner of magic venue A not far away.

Could it be that... the owner of magic venue A at that time also witnessed this scene?

"I can testify that the circumstances of the crime were exactly as the magic assistant said."

"Because every time there is a performance, I will be on the beam platform of the magic stage to pay attention to the situation."

The owner of magic venue A stood up from the witness stand and spoke without hesitation.

"So, I can vouch for what the magic assistant said—"

"Whether Yuuki committed suicide or was murdered by his best friend, I don't approve of either!"

That's why this case ended up as a magic accident.

The owner of Magic Venue A took all the responsibility for this, which eventually led to the decline of Magic Venue A.

At this time, Xiang Yuanguang's hand slapped the table of the testimony desk again.

“So, the defense’s argument is as follows.”

"The deceased did not commit suicide, nor did he die in a magic accident, nor was he murdered by a magic assistant."

"Instead, he was murdered by a third party, disguised as a magical accident."

The hedgehog-haired lawyer lifted up the evidence consisting of four leather handcuffs on the table of the testimony desk.

By using a projector to magnify it for everyone to see, one can see that behind the handcuffs is actually...

There was also a broken thin wire, and it was on all four leather handcuffs.

"I discovered these thin lines on the horizontal board when I was investigating the Death Bed of Nails."

"This is not something that is normally seen in magic performances, but it is the real reason for Yokoyama Yuki's death."

"Because these thin wires are connected to the leather handcuffs, and the handcuffs are fixed with magic glue."

"If you don't lift the cuffs, you can't be sure these thin lines exist."

Xiang Yuanguang said with a sneer.

"The murderer was smart because he tied all four handcuffs with thin wires."

"But three of them are the type that break easily, and only one is a solid real thread."

"And the true thread was cut by the nails at the same time as the nail bed fell and killed the deceased."

"So the police investigation will determine that this is something that was originally part of the magic props."

"Finally, based on the eyewitness testimony of the magic assistant and the owner of magic venue A—"

"It is judged that the deceased in this case died in a magical accident."

"This is the truth behind Hiroki Yokoyama's death twelve years ago."

Chapter 336 Magic, leading to the cheers of reversal (51)

Yes, the truth is so simple, the sleight of hand of three of the four wires being fake and one being real fooled the police.

The magic assistant, one of the most critical witnesses in this case, left his hometown due to tremendous psychological pressure.

Another key witness, the owner of magic venue A, became depressed because he had to bear the burden alone.

Finally, the Bed of Nails of Death, which once carried the dreams of three people who loved magic, was covered in dust.

No one cared about it anymore——until Xiang Yuanguang appeared.

"As for how I cracked this ingenious killing magic trick, the reason is very simple."

The hedgehog-headed lawyer grabbed the chiseled bed of death nails with both hands.

Then he pushed it forward with force, and immediately turned the death bed of nails over.

The back of the death bed of nails, which no one had ever seen before, suddenly appeared in everyone's sight.

On the back of the iron horizontal plate, there is obviously a small mechanism that is not so harmonious.

"See how this true thread moves behind you."

Xiang Yuanguang sneered and pointed out the mechanism to everyone.

Although the real thread has been broken, there is no way for everyone to directly see the reproduction of the magic.

But Ghost Moon Firefly, who has the ability to replay the scene, can see everything that happened——————

The magic trick went smoothly and the black cloth was not high enough so that the magician would be seen if he stood up.

So Hiroki Yokoyama moved to the reserved safe position while lying down.

Then, after he had maneuvered himself to a safe position, the magic assistant lowered the bed of nails.

Therefore, Yokoyama Yuki changed his body shape, squatted down, and prepared to stand up and sit on the nail bed.

But at this moment, the falling nail bed triggered the mechanism, and the inconspicuous thin wire on the wrist was pulled back.

As a result, Hiroki Yokoyama, who was squatting, was caught off guard and fell towards the nail bed.

The magic assistant came over at this time, ready to pull the black cloth up, giving Hiroki Yokoyama the opportunity to sit on top of the nail bed.

But he saw with his own eyes his good friend Yokoyama Yuki throwing himself into the falling nail bed as if committing suicide.

In the end, the person was left with no intact body, which was a cruel and unbelievable scene.

"…It will work if we follow the method that Attorney Xiang Yuan suggested."

Gui Yueying closed her eyes subconsciously, as if she couldn't bear to look at the bloody scene.

Her face turned pale as she agreed with Xiang Yuanguang's idea, again attracting the attention of the senior prosecutor next to her.

Because Reiko Kujo's idea was to prove to Genkou that this mechanism could work.

But now that Gui Yueying has acknowledged the defense's claim, she has no reason to ask Xiang Yuanguang to prove it.

(What's going on? Is Xiaoying giving in just like that? This is too easy.)
