Chapter 79 Chapter 79 The game starts off badly?
306
Prosecutor Kazama was fine, but the other person in his room was in big trouble.
However, after seeing the other person, Kamonohashi Rin remained silent for a long time and said, "Dudu, let's go. This guy can't die no matter who dies. He's just pretending to be dead."
Isshiki Todumaru: "...Is, is that so?"
Robin lay prone on the ground in a very strange manner, then immediately jumped out: "Kamonohashi-kun, you are too disrespectful. Besides, it's not possible that I heard Prosecutor Kazama's strange movements and rushed over, but I accidentally fell!"
"Oh, so that scream wasn't yours. Are you sure you didn't break into someone's house and scare Prosecutor Kazama, causing the scream?"
"That was a woman's scream just now, right?"
"What do you mean by trespassing? I'm going to sue you, Kamonohashi. Besides, don't I live with Prosecutor Kazama? Prosecutor Kazama might scream at a stranger, but why would he scream at me?" Robin protested. "Although I did mistakenly think the sound was Prosecutor Kazama's, it's clearly not. Look at his expression now, it's pretty obvious to you."
Prosecutor Kazama: "...What expression can Kamo no Hashi make out when I'm wearing sunglasses?"
Kamonohashi Ron: "The look on my face when I found out you had a dead body hidden under the house."
Prosecutor Kazama: “?!”
Isshiki Totomaru: "?!"
Robin: "Ha! The game doesn't start well. Right from the start, the prosecutor representing the official is killing people."
Prosecutor Kazama: "Can some lawyers please stop slinging insults? I'm just a suspect. If anything, it was self-defense. After all, a tall man trying to enter the house is certainly self-defense. But if others knew about it, it would probably be disruptive to everyone's desire for unity."
"Concealment is what destroys trust even more," Kamohashi Ron said, "It's better to admit it openly... Hey, this deceased person is—"
"It's Eli Moriarty," Prosecutor Kazama suddenly said. "Even a genius like Alice probably wouldn't have imagined that one of her brothers would die here. But given her cold-heartedness, she probably wouldn't care about her other siblings."
"Maybe. I think Winter takes good care of her." Kamohashi Ron said.
Prosecutor Kazama didn't say much.
"Alright, let's explain our situation now. I think it's okay if you admit it tomorrow. That way, others will know what's happening on the island now. There aren't just a few of us involved," Kamonohashi said. "And didn't you say it was self-defense? It's better to admit it than to admit something you don't want to know."
Prosecutor Kazama: "Do you know everything? Kamo no Bashi?"
“I know more than you think.

After daybreak, Alice wanted to announce something, but when she saw Prosecutor Kazama appear before her unharmed, she knew something unexpected had happened: "It seems there are some unexpected circumstances that I didn't anticipate."
"You originally planned to kill me, Alice. I'm sorry to disappoint you," Prosecutor Kazama said. "I have a lot of experience fighting the M family. Although the one who came last night wasn't a small fry, I have the experience and the means to deal with him."
"Prosecutor Kazama, what are you talking about?" There were also some people who were not in the mood.
"In short, Prosecutor Kazama killed someone last night," Robin said. "The good news is that if it happened outside in a courthouse, he would most likely be found guilty of self-defense and wouldn't go to jail. But the bad news—"
"We're on this lawless island," Sanwang said. "But when we took the headcount, no one was missing. So I'm skeptical about the so-called prosecutor Kazama killing someone."
"Prosecutor Kazama hasn't said anything yet. Is that because he did kill my brother, right?" Alice continued smiling. "I didn't expect something like this to happen. I'm actually quite surprised too."
However, she was even more surprised by something else.
She had clearly tampered with Kamohashi Ron's body again on the plane, so why didn't Kamohashi Ron's unconscious hypnosis, who knew everything, take effect? Or had it already taken effect without her knowledge but was stopped by Officer Isshiki?
Cesar seemed to react at this moment: "Wait? Prosecutor Kazama killed your brother...?"
"When someone who wasn't my roommate entered my room at night, it was normal for me to instinctively defend myself," said Prosecutor Kazama. "And if I hadn't acted in self-defense, I might have been the one who died."
"But Prosecutor Kazama, you should know that the laws you claim to uphold are not upheld here. As for your guilt or innocence, why not let the nine people present decide?" Alice said with a smile. "Just a reminder, if you intend to kill Prosecutor Kazama with a legitimate reason, you must ensure he's convicted of murder."
"That means if we do this, we'll have one less competitor, right?" asked Lee Koch.
"That's it."
"So, is it the principle of collective consensus?" Robin also asked.
"Of course it's the principle of collective consensus," Alice said. "I wouldn't object to you going to the scene to investigate."
308
"Let me make this clear: unless someone can provide evidence proving Prosecutor Kazama truly deserves his sentence, I won't admit his guilt. After all, I'm a lawyer," Robin said. "Besides, he's my roommate. I won't admit his guilt even if there's any doubt."
Gergez: "God tells me that it's not right to assume that Kazama-kun is guilty right now. What about the others?"
Lee Koch: "I'm aligned with all of you, so don't ask me, I'll vote with you once you're sure."
"It seems like there's no enthusiasm," Cesar said. "I think we need to investigate first."
"There are police and detectives here. I don't think there's much room for us to play in the investigation. However, the prosecutor is the most likely suspect and is also a suitable person to participate in the investigation." Robin seemed to really want to let Prosecutor Kazama go free, but Prosecutor Kazama shook his head and said:
"I'm highly suspicious. How about finding someone trustworthy to watch me? Robin isn't an option. We're roommates. How about Lee Koch watching me?"
Li Koch, who was called out, was a little surprised: "Me? I personally don't have any objection."
Alice: "..."
I don't know why I have a bad feeling, but it seems to be more than just an illusion.

Most people were preparing to investigate the crime scene Prosecutor Kazama mentioned, but Kamonohashi Ron had other plans. He told Isshiki Totomaru, "Keep an eye on Prosecutor Kazama. Most importantly, don't let him harm Lee Kochi. I'm afraid he holds a grudge to some extent."
"Ah? It doesn't look like it?" Isshiki Todumaru was a little shocked.
"Do you think Miss Kazama Mariri will hold a grudge?" Kamohashi Ron asked Isshiki Totomaru.
“…It’s possible.”
"Why is there such a suspicious silence at the beginning?" asked Kamohashi Ron.
"After all, it seems that my only contact with Ms. Kazama Marie, aside from that case, has been asking her for information. But I've been wondering for a long time, is Prosecutor Kazama the type to share some documents with my sister?"
Although his sister is also a detective, it is not right for the prosecutor to show the case materials to his sister. You know, even if he is asked to help steal the files from the Metropolitan Police Department as a joke, he will never agree or do it.
"Sometimes you don't have to think so complicatedly. There is a way to let Kazama Mari know the situation of the case at that time without being unfaithful to your identity as a prosecutor." Kamohashi Ron said.
"Eh? Are you saying that Miss Kazama Maruri was actually the person involved in the case at that time?" asked Isshiki Totsumaru.
Kamo no Bridge Theory: "..."
Kamo no Hashiro: "Keep working hard. With your level of reasoning, I no longer expect you to become a famous detective in your lifetime."
"I'm so sorry for not thinking straight!"
Kamonohashi Ron sighed and said, "Mari Kazama is indeed involved in a case related to the M family, but it was the Aichi Prefecture shooting case, and she's a suspect. She showed us the information about the phantom beast serial murder case, and she knew a lot of details, like how the victim was actually a lion and that the lion was euthanized. But there's one strange thing: she even remembered clearly that her brother had visited the circus."
"Is she close to her brother? Didn't she say she was investigating her brother?"
"Is she telling the truth?" Kamohashi Ron asked back, "Humans are animals that conceal and lie, all of them."
“Huh?!”
309
Kamohashi Ron went to investigate the scene with others, while Isshiki Totsumaru turned back to see Prosecutor Kazama. Although he turned back halfway, he found that what Kamohashi Ron had guessed had come true.
He saw that Prosecutor Fengjian seemed to be about to subdue Li Koch, and subconsciously shouted: "What are you doing, Prosecutor Fengjian!"
Prosecutor Kazama: "...Tsk."
Lee Koch seemed to have escaped unharmed, and Prosecutor Kazama looked at Isshiki Totomaru and said, "It was Kamonohashi who asked you to come back to watch over me, wasn't it? I hate to admit that he guessed most of my thoughts correctly. But it's true, I'm only good at investigating cases, not creating them, unlike these guys with Moriarty blood."
Prosecutor Kazama said the word Moriarty with gritted teeth, as if he had considerable hatred and deep hostility towards them.
Lee Koch: "What does your hostility towards the M family have to do with me?"
"Don't think I can't tell who you are!
