Chapter 22: The Heart Must Take Action

"Judge, I requested to summon witnesses." Asano made sufficient preparations in advance, and of course he would not leave too many opportunities to respond: "I requested the Police Officer Matsuda Hashihei, who is fully responsible for this case, to confront him in person."

"Yes." The judge agreed. After all, such a thing cannot be avoided by the criminal police responsible for the case.

"Officer Matsuda, please tell us the details of the matter truthfully." Asano looked at Matsuda seriously and said. Is this a famous criminal matter? Then use him as a pedal to lay the foundation for my fame.

Although this is not what he wants, and although this road is full of dangers, he can no longer turn back because Smino is a more dangerous existence than Matsuda. Because Matsuda lives in the system no matter what, he takes everyone's laws and morality as the norm of life, while Smino does take himself as the center of his life extreme, and he will only do it according to his own rules.

"On the seventh day of this month, Kikuto Morien came to the Metropolitan Police Department to surrender, saying that he killed their deacon Akio Shigematsu on the night of May 6th the day before." Matsuda was also looking at the young lawyer. He looked elegant and intellectual. It was hard to believe that this person would be linked to Smino: "And when he came, he brought a weapon and a shirt stained with the victim's blood."

"Very good, so now I'm allowed to ask a few questions, just answer yes or no." Asano smiled: "The first question, is Officer Matsuda involved in the entire investigation of the murder of Mr. Akio Shigematsu?"

"Yes." Matsuda replied.

"So, is there any direct evidence in the investigation to prove that Kikuto Morien is the murderer?" Asano asked: "You just need to answer whether there is or not."

"No." Matsuda replied calmly, as if he had no resistance to being led by Asano.

"Very good, then my last question is, Officer Matsuda, you have to answer truthfully. On the evening of May 6, did Mr. Hattori determine the murderer of Akio Shigematsu, and this person is not Mr. Kikuto?" Asano stared into Matsuda's eyes: "Yes, or isn't it?"

At this time, all the people who were familiar with the matter focused on Matsuda. Heiji and Kikuto were the same, and there were also three people, including Morizo ​​Katsuo, Sakurato Yuji and Kataki. Of course, at this time, there were also three people, including Kogoro Mouri, Koran and Conan.

"Yes." Matsuda's voice was always steady, without a trace of fluctuation.

"Very good, thank you for your cooperation, Mr. Matsuda." Asano smiled and said, "My Lord Judge, my question has been asked. The judge who believes that the fair and wise judge and the jury who are sitting there have already been a concern in their hearts."

Just as the jury was talking and the three judges were communicating with each other, Matsuda, who should have gone down, suddenly attacked.

"This Asano lawyer?" Matsuda smiled: "Can you answer a question?"

"Oh? OK, but only for reasonable questions." Asano curled his smile.

"If you win this lawsuit this time, will you come to the police station or me, the little policeman?" Matsuda asked bluntly.

"This kind of thing depends on what my client thinks." Asano glanced at his temporary assistant Smino: "If my client has this intention, then I should serve him." Smino's action was originally intended to hit you, so how could he not do such a thing?

"It's great, but you have to understand one thing too." Matsuda didn't seem to pay attention to Asano's small movements, and had never looked at Smino: "The next day when we detained Yuji Sakura as a suspect, Kikuto Morien came to the Metropolitan Police Department to surrender, carrying an important weapon and blood jacket. Where did he find these two things, you'd better explain to the judge first. Now that everything is not finalized, you should start preparing for the next lawsuit. It's not a good thing to be too active sometimes."

"Is that true?" Asano's face remained unchanged, although Kikuto was found to be a flaw when he possessed the weapon: "What my client told me was that he was misled by the young detective and believed that if the weapon was found, then Mr. Sakuratune Yushi, as the suspect, would definitely admit the crime he committed."

"However, my client didn't want to have social interactions with the police because of his personality, so he braved the night rain and found the weapon and planned to put it in Mr. Sakuratu's house." Asano said the far-fetched reason, but his tone was not at all far-fetched, just as if someone else said one plus one equals two: "I didn't expect that because of this, I was deceived and threatened by the young detective."

"Deception and threat?" Matsuda said these two words in a questioning tone.

"That's right." Asano said: "Although my client is ready to get married, he still maintains the innocence of his children in some aspects. He makes a wrong judgment after being misled by others. Fortunately, there is room for recovery for this matter. Officer Matsuda, I don't want to discuss this issue with you anymore, but please withdraw your prejudice."

"From your tone, I heard that you are inclined toward that young detective, but I hope you will come up with conclusive evidence when you determine such a thing. If it is reasoning, I actually think that the first reasoning of that young detective, Mr. Yushi Sakura Ting's method of committing the crime is more feasible."

Hello, don't always call him a boy detective! It seems like I don't have a name, I am the famous detective Haike Heiji in Kansai! Although it's a fan, Heiji's contemptuous tone was so exciting that he wanted to point at his nose and curse.

"What is the truth is not our final say." Matsuda ended the debate: "After all, evidence is needed, right? Let's wait and see."

"This is exactly why I stand here." Asano once again strengthened his position. It was not that he insisted on having such a verbal dispute with Matsuda, but that he wanted to maintain a state of mastering the truth at all times. Only in this way can he infect the jury and judges.

When Asano returned to his seat and sat down, she said to Smino beside her: "How do you feel? Now everything is going well."

"Very good." Smino's voice was very ethereal: "Who is she?"

Hum? Asano was stunned. Who is she? Following Smino's gaze, he saw the very heroic figure and couldn't help but moan. My God, aren't you going to grab Matsuda and chase him hard? Now he is actually focusing all his attention on a woman?

Although she was very dissatisfied, Asano did not dare to show it: "She is a very famous prosecutor, her name is Reiko Kujo, she is 33 years old this year. By the way, it is said that she has a good relationship with Matsuda Hashihei."

"Is that true?" Smino pondered for a moment and didn't say anything, but at the same time he did not divert his gaze.

This uncovered look naturally cannot be hidden from Jiuzhao, but she just frowned. She was very concerned about the verdict this time, so she endured the unhappiness in her heart and went to the court to recession.

When the judge announced the adjournment, Kujo got up and left, not wanting to touch Smino's burning gaze at all.

Matsuda sat on Conan, talking with Heiji and the others during the recess. Although he also noticed the abnormality of Kujo, he did not pay too much attention.

"Miss Reiko, can you give you a drink?" Smino ignored Asano and Kikuto moving towards Moriyuan Katsuo, and took a few steps to catch up with Kyujo.

Miss Reiko? Kujo's expression became even more unhappy: "I'm sorry, I don't have time. Aren't you the assistant of Asano Ekawa? Can you not be by his side at this time?"

"Assistant? No, it's not meaningful to be with that kind of person." Smino did not hide his disgust: "I hate Kikuto Morien and his rich father."

"Oh?" Jiujo was surprised and looked at Smino with some disbelief.

"If you think you have money, you can change the law arbitrarily. Such a person will not have a good ending." Smino said. Such a father and son are to be purified. As long as people like them still live in this, there will be no new world.

Kujo didn't know what Smino was thinking and said a little surprised: "If you can say such words, you don't look like Asano's assistant."

"I'm not Asano's assistant." Smino said casually: "I'm just looking for a set of laws without any loopholes, but unfortunately I see a tool for people to fight for interests and exploit loopholes. There is no perfect code in this world. My ideal is to turn it into reality. My dream is to create a code that no one can use to abide by, and there will be no power struggles or disputes in this world. Everyone is an equal existence, an equal identity, no partiality, no tendency, and absolutely can represent justice."

Yes, this is the code of the new world. There are all disgusting things in this dirty world, and the root of those sins is the inequality of power. There will be no high-ranking officials and rich people in the perfect world. They all have the same status, the same birth, the same growth, no oppression, no contempt, and the same peace from birth to death. There will be no people and things that we hate.

Of course, Smino's inner monologue would not be heard by Kyujo, but she heard the perfect code that Smino said. As a legal worker, she has an extremely passion for her profession. This love made her regard Smino as her kind, and her love for him continued to increase.

This strengthening of favorability made Kujo interested in Smino, saying: "I think we can sit down and have a talk."
