Reiko Kujou's face was filled with a hint of helplessness.

This time, the witness is Officer Twilight of the Metropolitan Police Department, who is also an eyewitness to the murder scene of the Moonshadow Island case.

Like these police officers in the criminal department, below the police department, who need to be on duty, it is generally difficult to find a schedule to appear in court as a witness, after all, the crime rate in this world is so high.

In the first two public trials, these police officers also did not find a chance to appear in court.

In this lawsuit, Reiko Kujou stood with Komimon, and originally wanted to end the case today.

However, today she was suddenly notified that someone from the Metropolitan Police Department was going to attend as a witness.

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

"Grant the prosecution's request!"

After the judge knocked down the hammer.

Soon after, Officer Twilight was taken to the witness stand by the Judicial Police.

It's still the same brown trench coat, bowler hat, and a big belly like a pregnant woman.

has an old-fashioned and serious face, with the appearance of police justice.

"Witnesses please!"

Officer Twilight's gaze subconsciously looked in the direction of the distant auditorium.

In the auditorium, Yusaku Kudo nodded to him.

Gu Meimen narrowed his eyes slightly.

The subtle movements of these two people were naturally watched by him.

is correct with his previous analysis, Kudo Yusaku will indeed secretly find someone to deal with him.

He may have contacted the middle and high-level of the Metropolitan Police Department, and this is the time for the low-level police officers to be able to appear in court smoothly.

After a while, Officer Twilight told everything he had seen and heard at the scene of the crime.

"At that time, at the scene of the death of Tatsuji Kuroiwa, the head of Moonshadow Island, we found a tape recorder with a tape of a piano sonata, and the prisoner used a technique of reversing the tape to extend the running time of the tape by 30 minutes, as proof of her alibi......"

Officer Twilight said as he pulled out a few photos.

"These are the photos taken by the forensic class from the scene, and you can see that on the photo on the left, there is a red dot on the tape recorder, which is the button on the tape recorder to play the reverse. The red dot on the photo on the right disappears, indicating that someone approached the exhibit at the time, moved the tape recorder, and eliminated the reversed red dot - "

After a pause, Officer Twilight held out a hand and pointed at the masaki in the dock.

"And the only one who can do this is the suspect sitting here, Asa Minoru! She was left on site as a post-mortem doctor at the time, and only she had the opportunity to approach the tape recorder and eliminate the red dots on it! ”

With Officer Twilight's accusation, Conan in the audience nodded repeatedly.

Officer Twilight's reasoning was made by shooting Kogoro Mori with an anesthetic needle and telling him through his mouth.

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

Conan looked at his father beside him, a look of hope in his eyes.

Kudo Yusaku looked pensive, then nodded: "There is no problem, it is logically logical." ”

"Right?" Conan smiled, "I'll just say that my reasoning is absolutely fine!" ”

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

So, it is absolutely impossible for a prisoner to go wrong!

Offstage, after the witness Officer Twilight finished his opinion.

It was the turn of the prosecution Reiko Kujo to give her opinion again.

She had to stand up and follow the words of the witnesses to question the defendant Aji.

"May I ask, did the defendant use the evidence at the scene of the crime at that time, as the witness said?"

Asa kept his head down and was silent.

Reiko Kujou asked again.

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

Asa pursed his lips, still not speaking.

These are all taught to her by Gu Meimen.

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

In the auditorium, seeing this scene, Conan couldn't help but show a worried look again.

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

Faced with his son's question, Yusaku Kudo smiled slightly.

"He's not going to do that, sophistry doesn't work in this situation."

"Why?"

"Sophistry in court is generally used to obscure or change the suspect's subjective consciousness at the time of committing the crime. For example, if you pick up a wallet on the road and don't return it to the owner, and you go to court, and then you argue that the wallet was lost by your mother, and it looks exactly the same, then the court can't tell whether you did it to return the wallet to your mother or to embezzle other people's property. ”

Kudo Yusaku said slowly, using the little legal knowledge he knew to popularize science to his son.

Conan nodded repeatedly, a look of curiosity in his eyes.

Others gave him the law, but it was difficult for Conan to agree and not listen.

A self-centered person is right to stick to what he does.

But if it was Yusaku Kudo, he would have listened carefully, because in his concept, he only identified with his father.

"In this case, sophistry is useless, because the subjective consciousness of the law is analyzed according to a certain objective factual basis, emphasizing the 'possibility of criticism'. For example, if two groups of drug trafficking organizations are caught at the scene of the transaction, 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 valid. ”

"So the prisoner can only be silent! She's the murderer, she's a crime, so there's no way to quibble! ”

Conan looked excited and nodded repeatedly.

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

"Whether the suspect is really the murderer or not, it is not possible to draw conclusions." Yusaku Kudo shook his head, and then said confidently, "But in this case, according to common sense, the other party should not be able to solve it." ”

At the same time, on the dock side of the audience, the defendant chose to be silent, and the agent certainly couldn't be silent.

In the face of Reiko Kujo's inquiry, Komimon did not speak, and first glanced at Yusaku Kudo in the auditorium.

Yusaku Kudo smiled at him in return.

"This old boy, you want to me?"

Gu Meimen's eyes narrowed slightly.

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

Because it is common knowledge that the evidence cannot be tampered with at the scene of the crime, the suspect pressed the button on the evidence, and there is a possibility of criticism, and it is impossible to argue for this kind of behavior.

If you force an argument, it is sophistry, and you will fall into the other party's scheme.

Gu Meimen thought secretly.

It's worthy of Kudo Yusaku, a little more difficult to deal with than his son.

So, let's think differently here.

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

"Excuse me, Mr. Witness Officer, are you sure that the person who pressed the tape recorder button at that time is the suspect?"
