Conan: Silence in the Dark

"Jing, Conan, and I are going to the supermarket together, and there won't be enough ingredients for tomorrow. Xiaolan looked at the refrigerator and came out of the kitchen.

"Okay, sister/Okay, Sister Xiaolan. Conan and Xiao Jing naturally won't refuse.

Xiaolan left and right with one of them left and right, and Xiao Jing didn't bring the books she carried with her this time, after all, she just went out to buy something.

"It's been a long time since I've been shopping with Xiao Jing, Xiao Jing used to be very cold to people. I don't even pay much attention to my sister. Xiaolan sighed as she pushed the shopping cart.

"I was scared of life at that time. "Actually, I'm afraid of revealing that I'm a crosser, what if I'm sent to slices and studied by you?

"What was Jing like then?" Conan was curious about Jing's affairs.

"In the past, Xiaojing was very clingy to her mother, and she would be inseparable from her mother after walking, and she couldn't pull it away. At that time, her mother had to defend herself in court, so Xiao Jing directly pulled her mother's trouser leg to follow up. At that time, my mother had a headache, so I had to apply for companionship with the judge. Xiaojing, who also suffers, doesn't cry or make trouble, just follows her mother. So the judge later acquiesced to her mother taking Xiaojing to appear in court. "

"What about the title of princess in the court?" Conan continued to ask the roll of the eyes cast by Xiao Jing, who completely ignored the side.

"It was about when Xiao Jing was about four years old, and because she had been following her mother in and out of the courtroom, the staff knew Xiao Jing. So she went in and out of the courtroom more freely than her mother, and that day I remember that my mother couldn't leave when she encountered a case on the road. So let the assistant appear in court on his behalf. As a result, the other party invited a very strong prosecutor, and the assistant lady gradually couldn't cope with it, so Xiao Jing stood in her seat and defended the prosecutor. At the time, it was a sensation in that circle, but it was not reported because of the Juvenile Protection Act. I also listened to my mother. Xiaolan recalled.

"Did you go to the victim's apartment that day?" asked the suspect by prosecutor Kazumi Hanada, who was the flower of the court.

"Yes, but... Reiko was dead when I went. "

"You just have to answer my questions. "

"Yes. The suspect replied in a weak voice.

"You said you proposed to her and got rejected, didn't you?"

"Yes, but the rejection is on the phone. So I'm going to formally propose in person, and I agreed with Reiko on the phone. "

"You bought a rose at the flower shop in front of the station, didn't you?"

The suspect hesitantly turned his head to look at Yingli's assistant.

"Please answer my question. "

"Yes. "

"Where is that flower now?".

"No, the main thrust of the prosecution's question is not clear. The assistant stood up and objected.

"You'll understand when I'm done. Kazumi turned to the referee and asked with her eyes if she wanted to continue.

"I would like to ask the prosecution to continue asking questions. The referee asked Kazumi to continue.

"What was your first reaction when you saw a corpse?".

"I was confused for a moment and immediately ran away. "

"Oh, then you took the flowers with you, and all that was left was the florist's wrapping paper. "

"I don't remember. "

"You're afraid that the roses will expose your crimes, aren't you? If you didn't do something wrong, you didn't have to leave and take the roses with you, wouldn't you?"

The suspect just kept his head down and didn't say anything.

"I'm done with my question. Kazumi also ended the interrogation.

"Defender, please conduct a cross-examination. "

The assistant walked up to the suspect.

"You said that the victim had already rejected your marriage proposal on the phone, did she say anything else?".

"I don't remember for a moment. "

"So the door was unlocked when you went there, right?"

"Yes, I knocked on the door and didn't respond, so I tried to turn the doorknob and the door opened. Then I went in to look for Reiko and found her lying on the ground. "

"So do you have an impression of this glass handle?" the assistant flipped through the pages of the information in his hand.

"It was on the ground after the door was opened, so I picked it up and threw it in the trash. "

"Objections, these have already been collected at the time of evidence collection, and there is no need to repeat the interrogation. "

"Please ask the defender not to repeat the interrogation. "The referee also didn't think it was necessary.

"Chief Referee. The suspect has confessed that he went to the victim's room that day. The suspect's fingerprints were also obtained at the scene of the crime, and there is no doubt that the victim was killed by the suspect and escaped, so I don't think there is any need for the defense to interrogate him again. "

"Against, it is normal psychological behavior for a suspect to leave out of fear after discovering the body. And it wasn't long before the witness called the police, which is also a place worth questioning. The assistant lady retorted according to Yingli's information.

"Referee, the suspect's escape is just a simple escape. The suspect fled immediately after the killer because of his unsuccessful pursuit of the victim for a long time, and it was completely reasonable for the witness to call the police after seeing it. "

"The fingerprints on the murder weapon are also consistent with those of the suspect, and the human and physical evidence shows that the suspect is the murderer of the victim. "

"Is there anything else the defender needs to be questioned?" the chief judge looked at his assistant.

"So that's the end of today. The referee concluded.

"Teacher Yingli, I can't handle Miss Hemei at all. The assistant called Yingli immediately after the adjournment.

"Hey, but I can't find any evidence to prove it, when can you come over, teacher, there will be witnesses to interrogate tomorrow." "

"Okay, then I'll just do my best. Okay, Xiaojing, I'll take care of it. As he spoke, the assistant hung up the phone.

"Xiao Jing also lives with her sister today, your mother can't leave. "

"Okay. Xiao Jing replied while looking at the information of the case.

During this time, the assistant met the suspect again and determined something. Of course, Xiao Jing naturally followed.

"I really didn't kill Reiko, even if the marriage proposal is unsuccessful, I won't kill her. Her cat is still with me and I have good care of it every time. We've known each other for so long, and she occasionally gives me the cat and asks me to take care of it on my behalf, so I think we like each other before proposing. "

"Cat?".

"Yes, a pastoral cat. "

"Do you always take care of it?".

"Not often, once in a month or two. "

"So what else do you have to remember about the case? Maybe it can be used as a breakthrough. "

"I can't think of it. "

The next day.

"Mr. Yamazaki, please stand in front of the testimony desk. Reading of witness affidavit. The presiding judge asked Yamazaki, who was a witness, to appear in court.

A middle-aged man with a little hair walked up to the testimony desk.

"I state the facts in good conscience, and I swear that I will never conceal or perjury, and I have read it out. "

"Please sign the affidavit. Yamazaki then bent down and signed his name.

"Then the defender begins. "

"Okay. The assistant sorted out the materials and walked to the testimony desk.

"What is the relationship between your profession and the victim? "

"I am the victim's neighbor. I work at an advertising agency, and I came back to pick up the information because I was at home that day. "

"So did you see the suspect with a murder weapon that day?"

"No, but I saw him running out of the apartment building in a panic, his hands still bloody. "

"So that means you didn't see the suspect directly. Just saw the suspect run out of the apartment building?".

"Yes. "

"And did anyone else see it?"

"I don't know much about that. "

"Okay, I'm done. It was work time, and no one around saw the suspect. Judging from the testimony of the witnesses, it can be concluded that the suspect only came out of the apartment complex. "

"Objections, the defense has repeatedly stressed that the suspect just came out of the apartment complex to obscure the incident. "

"The objection is valid, may I ask the defender if there are any other questions. "

"Not for the time being. "

"Then ask the prosecution to interrogate you. "

"Mr. Yamazaki, did you see the suspect coming out of the building with blood on his right palm?"

"Yes. "

"And you immediately contacted the police, didn't you?"

"Yes. "

"That's the end of my question. The witness apparently called the police after encountering the suspect with blood on his hands, and we also learned from Mr. Yamazaki's company that Mr. Yamazaki had used the company phone to arrange a meeting with the client. "

"I think the evidence that the suspect killed the victim is conclusive, the chief judge. Kazumi made a summary to state that the suspect was still guilty.

"Against. Everyone subconsciously looked at the assistant lady, but found that the voice was not made by her.

"Here, here. Xiao Jing stood directly on the chair and waved to everyone.

"Xiaojing, don't make trouble. The assistant looked at Xiao Jing sternly, thinking that this kid had always been very obedient.

"Grandpa Judge, here are some of my mother's testimony and case materials that my mother intends to use in this case. Can I read it out?" Xiao Jing said fearlessly as she looked at the referee.

"If it's just a simple reading of the disciplinarian's evidence, please read it out, children. After discussing it with a few people around him, the referee felt that it was necessary to listen to Yingli's evidence.

"First of all, the evidence is that the fingerprints of the suspect were collected on the doorknob of the room and on the murder weapon. But what is puzzling is that only the fingerprints of the suspect were collected on the doorknob and the murder weapon, and no other people's fingerprints. "

"Secondly, when the victim first called, he had already informed him that he would come to meet him officially. Then the real murderer also leaves after having time in the room to arrange all this. "

"There is also a suspect who fosters the victim's cat, at first I thought it was Reiko going on a trip or something like that and I need to hand over the cat to someone else to take care of, but after investigation, I found that Reiko did not travel or travel, and there was no need to hand over the cat to the suspect's care. Especially if there is no special affection for the victim. So I think the murderer may be Miss Reiko's mistress and hates cats and is even allergic to cats. "

"Objections, these are just the defender's speculations, and they cannot be used as evidence at all. "

"This is normal reasoning, the purpose is to find the real culprit. It's not speculation or anything, please let me finish my sentence, Obasan. "

"Obasan?" everyone could clearly see Kazumi's clenched fist.

"Can I continue?"

"The prosecution, please do not interrupt the defense's statement, this is the evidence prepared by the disciplinary division, and it is of great reference significance for this case. "

"One last note, Uncle Yamazaki. Shizune looked at Yamazaki as a witness.

"You said you saw the blood on the palm of the suspect's right hand, right?"

"Yes".

"Then please take a look here. What did you see, Uncle Yamazaki, could you tell me first?" said Xiao Jing as she picked up a few pens on the table.

"It's a couple of pens. "

"Where's the referee's grandfather?".

"It's a pen, that's right. "

Xiao Jing asked the people around her for advice again, and they all replied that it was a pen.

"That's right, everyone noticed that I was holding a few pens in my hand, but they ignored the post-it note on the side of my palm. As she spoke, Xiao Jing released the pen to reveal the post-it note stuck to the palm of her hand.

"What does it mean that your hand is holding a pen, and the post-it notes are only showing a small part so they are not being noticed?" asked Kazumi.

"That's right, because when you grasp the pen with your fingers, only a small part of it is exposed, so everyone doesn't pay attention to the post-it notes in the palm of your hand. But the suspect grabbed the rose with his right hand, and only a small part of the blood-stained palm was exposed. Generally speaking, if you look at it, you will only think that it is a person with a flower. "

"So, I think Mr. Yamazaki has committed perjury. Only by looking closely and paying close attention to the suspect's hand will you see that the suspect's hand is stained with blood. "

"What this kid said makes sense. "

"It's the discipline master who makes sense. "

"Yes, yes, yes. "

After that, the chief referee announced that there were still doubts and would continue to present evidence tomorrow, so the court adjourned.

On the third day, my mother solved another case and continued to defend the suspect through the information compiled by Xiaojing. In the end, the suspect was acquitted because of insufficient evidence. Mr. Yamazaki was also listed as a suspect by the police for perjury, and the subsequent search finally revealed that Mr. Yamazaki was the real murderer, and he used call forwarding to disguise his mobile phone as a company phone to create an alibi. Because he wants to marry the daughter of the boss of the company, he wants to cut off the relationship with Miss Reiko.,Miss Reiko refuses to be killed by him in anger.,It just so happened that he heard Reiko answer the phone and knew that someone would come over, so he blamed the suspect.。 "

From that time on, Xiao Jing began to assist her mother in defending with her assistant, and then they learned through her mother that Xiao Jing had compiled the clues and information alone. Because her mother has the title of queen, she gave Xiao Jing another title as a princess in court. Xiaolan finally explained.

In fact, it is mainly because Sister Hemei often tricks me into being a dress-up doll, and once I was photographed by the granddaughter of the referee. Kazumi jokingly told her that this was Her Royal Highness the princess of our court. After that, they made fun of it. Of course, Xiao Jing didn't plan to tell Xiao Lan and Conan the real reason.

"Sister, let's eat curry tomorrow!".

"But Dad doesn't like to eat it. "

"Eat, eat. Conan says he's going to eat it too. "

Hey, why do I always lie down?

"You can't be willful. Xiaolan touched Xiaojing's head.

"Then eat curry!" Recently, the taste has been so light, I want to eat something heavier!

"Well, I can't help it. Xiaolan hesitated for a moment and agreed, anyway, only Kogoro didn't like curry very much.

That's how you've decided? Kogoro will cry. Conan suddenly felt that there was something pathetic about the masculine status of the family. But looking at Xiao Jing taking Xiao Lan to choose curry ingredients.

"Hehe, it's indeed Her Royal Highness the Princess. "
