He's in Detective Conan, but a Triumph Attorney.

"This is the truth behind the water tank escape magic show fourteen years ago."

[End of testimony]

It is obvious that Miyoshi Mako's testimony is very specific.

But this is not surprising, after all, her anger and hatred are not false.

However, these testimonies alone, combined with the evidence, cannot convict Jiujiu Yuankang...

Xiang Yuanguang, who was standing in the defense seat, frowned and looked at Gu Meimen who was standing in the other defense seat.

The ace lawyer was seen with his eyes closed, not knowing what he was thinking about.

(…It seems like I can’t rely on you. I’ll do it myself.)

The hedgehog-head nodded, waved his hand, and a cup of coffee flew onto the table.

He grabbed the coffee cup and took a sip.

(According to the normal process, the next step should be the lawyer's questioning stage.)

(Besides the delay, I still need to learn more about the situation.)

(Hmm... let's start from here to resolve this feud that has spanned fourteen years.)

"Well, the witness' testimony is very convincing. It sounds like Jiujiu Yuankang is indeed the murderer in this case."

"Then it makes sense that Miss Miyoshi would seek revenge on Kyujuku Motoyasu for this..."

The presiding judge made full use of his easily influenced nature.

This time he nodded and said one of the few words in favor of the witness during the trial.

But it is obvious that the prosecutor will not agree with the presiding judge's words.

"Your Excellency the Judge, can the testimony alone determine whether Jiujiu Yuankang is a murderer?"

"Convictions like this must be based on concrete evidence, otherwise it would be ridiculous."

Prosecutor Kujo Reiko said calmly.

"Defense, are you going to conduct the [interrogation] now? Or is it the same as before..."

"Can you directly prove that Kinoshita Yoshiro's death was not a simple mage accident?"

Chapter 350 Magic, leading to the cheers of reversal (63)

Ask now... or look at the evidence first... um...

Xiang Yuanguang raised his eyebrows and felt that it would be better to ask.

At least we should first ask Miyoshi Mako and Kyuujiu Yuankang what modifications they made to the handcuffs fourteen years ago.

With his mind made up, Xiang Yuanguang immediately raised his head and said seriously.

"The defense requested that [the questioning] be conducted first, and the evidence can be viewed after the questioning."

Prosecutor Kujo had no objection to this and just nodded.

After all, she had nothing to question about the only witness, Miyoshi Mako.

The other party's true identity and everything else have been figured out, and he is indeed related to the case, so there is nothing to criticize.

Boom, boom, boom.

The presiding judge lowered the gavel and spoke.

"Then please allow the defense to begin questioning the witnesses."

【————Interrogation begins————】

Picking up the coffee and taking a sip, Xiang Yuanguang's mind began to work at high speed.

There are many things to ask about in Miyoshi Mazi's testimony, and many of them can be expanded upon.

However, if you want to delay time, you should start from top to bottom and avoid the most crucial testimony.

The Hedgehog-Head closed his eyes lightly and went over Miyoshi Mazi's testimony in his mind.

Then he opened his eyes and began to ask questions with confidence.

"First, I would like to inquire about Ms. Miyoshi Asako's first testimony [I used to live with my brother Kinoshita Yoshiro]. Please give us detailed information about your previous family situation."

In response, Sanhao Mazi blinked, a little confused.

Didn’t your defense lawyer reveal all these things when he opened the case?

Why do you have to ask one more question now? Are you stalling for time or bluffing?

However, as a client in a sense, the female magician would not question anything.

She has been waiting for fourteen years, so she can wait a little longer.

"As you have found out before, I am fourteen years younger than my brother, Kinoshita Yoshiro, so after my parents passed away, it was my brother who raised me."

"And his income is mainly earned by participating in various magic shows after joining the Miracle Magic Troupe... Speaking of which, my brother was very happy to tell me this when he first became a disciple of Jiujiu Yuankang..."

"I always thought that kind of life would continue forever, but I didn't expect that everything would come to an abrupt end when I was six years old..."

Miyoshi Mako said calmly, but hidden beneath the calmness was an irrepressible sadness.

In response, Xiang Yuanguang tapped his forehead lightly with his finger, and then he turned to ask about the second testimony.

"Then I will continue to question the witness's second and third statements, [It's just that I usually stay in the rental house and rarely go to the Miracle Magic Troupe to play with my brother] and [On the one hand, I am in school, and on the other hand, I think going there will affect my brother's magic performances]."

"After Kinoshita Yoshiro passed away, you changed your name to Miyoshi Asako and became a disciple of Kyujuku Motoyasu. That's why he didn't recognize you...right?"

The answer to this question is of course that children grow up with new changes every year.

It is not surprising that Kyujuku Motoyasu, who was not familiar with Sakura Kinoshita, could not recognize Sakura Kinoshita after she changed her name.

But it is useless for a lawyer to say such things. Only when a witness says it can it become useful testimony.

Therefore, the female magician nodded again, and seemed to be a little sad as she remembered her adoptive parents.

"I guess it should be like this. It was the second year after my brother's death that I went to find Jiujiu Yuankang to become his apprentice." "As for Sanada-san, it should be the first year after my brother's death. He brought him in to replace my brother."

"Because he is very similar to his brother. He is also an orphan without a father or a mother, and he also loves magic."

"However, Sanada-san's talent in magic is far inferior to that of my brother."

"And the Miyoshi family had a biological daughter six years ago, but they still treat me as their own."

"It's just that I can't let go of my hatred, so I can only feel sorry for the kindness of the Sanhao family in raising me."

...Kichiro Kinoshita is known as a genius among geniuses, and it is certain that he has great talent.

Xiang Yuanguang nodded thoughtfully. He learned from Miyoshi Mako's words...

I heard a very interesting piece of information, which may be helpful for the subsequent reasoning of the case.

There is no need to ask more about the following matters, such as the escaping technique and the magician.

After all, as both magi, he and Kaito Kidd have said one thing many times——————

[The art of escaping bondage is a symbol of a master magician].

Someone who can perform escapades is not necessarily a master magician, but someone who cannot perform escapades is definitely not a master magician.

So, the Hedgehog Head touched his chin and turned to ask about the backstage of the magic venue.

"Well, next, I will question the witness about the fifth and sixth statements [I took a leave of absence and went to the backstage of the Miracle Magic Troupe to look for my brother, but I saw something unexpected...] and [Kyujuku Motoyasu tampered with the handcuffs that my brother would use for his performance]."

"Excuse me, how do you know where Kinoshita Yoshiro was backstage? And how do you know that the handcuffs that Kyujuku Motoyasu tampered with were the same handcuffs that Kinoshita Yoshiro used during his performance? Is there any way to confirm the authenticity of these testimonies?"

When the Hedgehog-headed man started to ask the question, the presiding judge suddenly exclaimed "Ah" in surprise.

This immediately caused everyone in the audience to be puzzled and turn around to look at the presiding judge's bald head.

Even Xiang Yuanguang turned to look at the presiding judge, wondering what he was surprised about.

"Well, the court is just a little confused as to why Attorney Xiang Yuan did not ask about the fourth testimony."

The presiding judge touched his bald head somewhat embarrassedly.

"The art of unbinding is just a type of magic, right? What does it have to do with the magician?"

"Didn't the witness say that my brother was determined to perform magic? There should be a connection between them."

Hearing this, Xiang Yuanguang couldn't help but shook his head and sighed.

I thought you were surprised about something again, but it turns out to be such a trivial matter.

There was no need for Asako Miyoshi at the witness stand to speak; the young prosecutor at the prosecutor's seat had already answered.

"Mr. Judge, it is said that in the magic world, the art of unbinding is a measure of a magician's strength."

"Mastering the art of escaping from bondage is one of the foundations of becoming a master magician."

"I think that's why Kinoshita Yoshiro insisted on continuing the unbinding technique performance, right?"

"And one of the reasons is probably that Kinoshita Yoshiro doesn't believe his teacher would harm him..."

Gui Yueying paused and spoke softly to herself.
