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

"So, Miss Edwards, what I want to ask is—is the woman you saw the deceased in this case? Have you confirmed this?"

Edwards' answer to this kind of question is obvious.

As a new witness found temporarily by the police station, these short ten minutes were enough for her to be called to the courtroom by the police, and then she would appear in court to testify after understanding the situation. The body of the deceased could not be seen in the courtroom.

The body of the deceased will not be placed inside the courtroom, but in the police station.

Otherwise, Phoenix Wright wouldn't have been able to find his ancestor's forensic friend and obtain a new household inspection report. "If the woman Miss Edwards saw and spoke with Jack the Ripper wasn't the third victim killed by Jack the Ripper in this case, does that mean there's something wrong with Miss Edwards's testimony?"

The barrister's uncertain questioning left him some room to turn around.

However, Yan Tuhaici shook his head and clapped his hands with a smile.

"Naruhodō-kun, it seems you don't know yet? The alley where the deceased died is exactly the alley where Miss Edwards saw Jack the Ripper that afternoon. The police have already compared it with the address recorded at the time."

"Even if the woman Miss Edwards saw was not the deceased, she was a freelance worker with the same identity as the deceased, and she also met the conditions for Jack the Ripper to kill, and Jack the Ripper did appear."

"Even if the woman who died wasn't the one Edwards had met, it's just that she was lucky to have escaped. After all, these female freelancers came from the same place, so it's normal for them to hang around in the same area. So, even if she was killed by mistake—that's nothing to be surprised about."

In response, Naruhodō Ryunosuke's eyelids twitched.

If that's the case, then it seems that there is nothing to ask or delay now.

Asking for the identity of the witness? But the identity of the witness is already clear.

The process of negotiating clothing? That would be stopped directly by prosecutor Hao.

The details of the alley? Those details didn't seem to have any relevance to the case.

The woman's attire also clearly states that it is somewhat revealing, representing that she is a freelance female worker.

It seems that there is only one piece of testimony left to be questioned.

Chapter 595: The Murder of Hosho Reito

"Ms. Edwards, you mentioned in your testimony that you were standing at the entrance of the alley ready to ask the lady what was going on. Excuse me, did you talk to her in the end?"

"How did Jack the Ripper disappear? People can't just disappear out of thin air. There must be a process, right?"

Naruhodō Ryunosuke asked cautiously, and after that, he did not forget to add one more sentence.

"People who are so fast that they are invisible to the naked eye can only exist in myths and stories. They can't exist in the real world. It's too unscientific and hard to believe."

—That makes sense.

The presiding judge nodded, but out of the corner of his eye he saw Prosecutor Hao.

The prosecutor, who looked experienced but was actually new to the job, seemed a little embarrassed.

What's the reason?

The answer is simple.

If it were a more normal world view, Karma Go would think that what Naruhodō Ryunosuke said was absolutely correct. How could there really be someone who is so fast that he cannot be caught by the naked eye?

But in fact, such people do exist in this world.

For example, the guy who used Xiang Yuanguang's body and identity, his strength increased several times, reaching an indescribable level, and it is not impossible for him to move in a way that cannot be captured by the naked eye--"

However, although Karma Hao knew this, he was unable to directly refute it in public.

Because if he said the defense was wrong, people could move at speeds that could not be captured by the naked eye.

Then, the final result can only be that the defense, the audience and the presiding judge all look at him with a look of care for the mentally disabled because this is a bit too supermodel for old London.

He could have refuted it, but was unable to do so due to the knowledge of the people present.

This experience made Karma Hao feel very uncomfortable. His fingers kept tapping his elbow at a faster frequency.

"..—-I had intended to ask the woman about her specific situation, but she didn't intend to talk to me. She just turned around and pushed open the iron door next to her and went in, shutting me out."

"She may have said something to Jack the Ripper, but I didn't hear what they said."

Kathleen Edwards replied.

"As for how Jack the Ripper disappeared - I don't know, because, I literally just blinked and Jack the Ripper disappeared from my sight."

"At that time, a corner of my skirt was lifted up by the wind for no apparent reason, which made me feel very strange."

-What strange wind? You don't think someone was going so fast that it caused the wind, did you?

Naruhodō Ryunosuke held his forehead with a headache. His answer about Jack the Ripper was the same as no answer at all, there was no difference.

Just like a person cannot be so fast as to be invisible to the naked eye, it is also impossible for a person to be so fast as to create the wind.

This place should be asked again.

"Miss Edwards—"

"That's enough! Naruhodō Ryunosuke, there's no other place you can ask!"

At this moment, Karma Go suddenly shouted loudly, stopping Naruhodō from asking questions.

"No matter how many times you ask, what the witness knows is what he knows, and what he doesn't know is what he doesn't know."

"There are many ways to vanish suddenly, such as magic, or excessive speed, or some kind of hook or sleight of hand—these things have nothing to do with the progress of the case."

"I've had enough of your meaningless nonsense. It's almost time to end it!"

what? !

Is this the end?

Naruhodō Ryunosuke was just about to slam the table and yell at Prosecutor Gou.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, juror number five of the jury tapped the table with his fingers, attracting everyone's attention.

Whether it was Naruhodō Ryunosuke or Karma Go, the two protagonists in the court looked sideways at the same time.

Because juror number five is Phoenix Wright.

"I also think that the trial of the third Jack the Ripper serial murder case is almost over. At present, there is no evidence or testimony to further advance the investigation of the case."

In the shocked eyes of his ancestor, Naruhodō Ryuichi spoke without hesitation.

His answer surprised Karma Hao, and the old prosecutor subconsciously wondered if this was a trick.

After all, when Naruhodō Ryuichi was laning against him, he was relentless and even banged the table until his hands hurt in order to buy himself a few more seconds to think. Why did he just give up now?

This is not like his defense style. Even if the other party is a juror, he will stand on the side of the defense.

"But, Mr. Judge, it is a bit unfair to want Asogi Yizhen to be found guilty just by looking at the result of the third trial of the Jack the Ripper serial murder case, isn't it?"

"Don't forget, this case is trying all the Jack the Ripper cases at the same time—"—including the murder of Hosho Reito at St. Antel's Hospital."

"Isn't it time to let the witnesses in the murder of Hosho Reito testify in court?"

Naruhodō Ryuichi smiled and changed the subject, directing the question to another case.

The person in charge of this case beside Moriarty is no longer Yan Tu Hai Ci. He only plays a role in pushing the mainstream, and the main arrangements are still made by Ya Liu Wu.

Juror No. 1 Ya Liuwu pushed his glasses and smiled inexplicably.

As if this had been anticipated.

In fact, he knew that Wright would definitely lead the topic to the murder of Reito Hosou, but this was also within his expectations. Rather, he hoped that Wright would lead the topic in this way.

Otherwise, wouldn’t all his previous arrangements be wasted and not even be put to use?

"Haha, Naruhodō Ryuichi, you already have one foot in the grave."

The reverse male ghost made a not very friendly sound.

This voice did not change Naruhodō Ryuichi's expression at all, he just spoke again.

"Ya Liu, don't forget, I'm not a defense lawyer—but even if I'm not on the defense bench, I can still defeat you, just like Wang Nixi's first trial—"

"I went from the defense table to the witness stand, and finally to the defendant's table."

"This time, I think you want to try a new experience, such as moving from the jury seat to the witness stand or the dock, right?"

Juror No. 1 snorted coldly. He was deeply impressed by the case that Naruhodō described.

The other party actually used his students to send him to jail. This was a great shame in his teaching career!

"Then wait and see, Phoenix Wright, I will let you know who is the final winner--

Chapter 596 Gina Lestrade's Testimony

"Hmm—Juror No. 5 also has a point."

The presiding judge nodded slightly.

"Then, Director Yan Tu, is it convenient for us to invite the eyewitnesses of the murder of Hosho Reito to the court to speak now?"

In response to this, Yan Tuhaici spoke affirmatively without hesitation.

"Of course, Chief. He's a good boy from my police department. He can testify in court right now!"

"I believe that as the only eyewitness and victim of this case, she will definitely provide key information!"
