Chapter 87 Chapter 87 I seem to have forgotten something important...

After returning to the cabin, Kamobashi Ron didn't think too much and spoke directly, "Ms. Marie Kazama, or rather, Prosecutor Kazama, is still lying."
Isshiki Todumaru was stunned for a moment, then asked, "Why do you say that, Lun?"
"She didn't kill anyone," Kamohashi said. "Or rather, Prosecutor Kazama had absolutely no intention to kill at that time. It wasn't self-defense, nor was it excessive."
"Ah? How do you determine this?"
"Remember that strange illness a long time ago that was confirmed to be caused by the M family's manipulation of my body?" Kamonohashi Ron began to slowly explain to Isshiki Totomaru, "It's a disease that causes murderers to commit suicide if a murder case is solved."
"Dr. Mengfu performed surgery on you later, didn't the information I obtained from the M family prove that it wasn't unconscious hypnosis?" Isshiki Todumaru thought briefly, "I think they even said that if your voice was processed in a certain way, it could block unconscious hypnosis."
"That's just theoretical," Kamohashi Ron said. "If they really acquired that ability because of tampering with my body, then how can the M family be so sure there won't be any exceptions? And now's not the time to discuss that... Even if it's self-defense, that unconscious hypnosis will only be activated if it's confirmed that the other person has murderous intent and actually kills someone. The only time it won't be activated is if there's no intention to kill at all or if no one has actually killed anyone."
Isshiki Todumaru: "Ren, what do you mean...?"
"In Ms. Marie Kazama's self-defense case, the victim was clearly already dead, so I can only assume she had no intention to kill, or...she didn't kill the victim," Kamonohashi said. "Wasn't the last case we investigated before arriving on the island a suicide that looked very much like a homicide?"
"That's completely different, isn't it?" Isshiki Totomaru retorted. "Even though you've carefully examined the body, I don't believe any clues could have escaped your eyes."
"You really have faith in me, Dudu."
"That's what partners do," Isshiki Todumaru said. "If we can't even trust our partners, we should just break up."
"That's true. Personally, I think that Kazama Mari's self-defense case... was an accident," Kamohashi Ron said casually. "But Kazama Mari is right. It's been so long that there's no point dwelling on it. At least everyone involved in that case feels the dust has settled."
But there is no such thing as the Blood Internship Case.
Everything that happened on this island can even be said to be a continuation of the Blood Internship Case.

"So many people have died, and I feel it's too dangerous, so I want to get together with everyone," said Gerjiez. "The wind tells me that if I try not to be alone, I'll be fine for a long time."
"I'm sorry, but I'm not interested in most religions," Officer Sanwang said. "Perhaps Mr. Feia would be interested? He himself said he has done some folklore research, but it's clear that Mr. Feia is still worried about our dinner."
"Isn't Cesar a little too quiet?" Fea asked. "He's just sitting there without saying a word."
"There's no group meeting right now. Kamohashi, Officer Isshiki, and Prosecutor Kazama are all gone," Lee Koch said. "I'm a little worried."
"There are three of them over there, Lee Koch. What are you worried about?"
"Kamonobashi and Officer Isshiki knew each other. If they were to commit mass murder against Prosecutor Kazama..." Lee Kochi said uncertainly, "Since Robin has already been killed by the murderer, I still have my doubts."
"Officer Isshiki doesn't look like someone who would kill someone," Cesar said.
"Lawyer Robin doesn't look like someone who would die," Lee Koch retorted, and then left.
Feiya just shook her head and continued fishing. "It's up to you guys. I don't think this kind of thing matters. Once we land on this island, the agreement between her and me is fulfilled. No matter who wins in the end, my relationship with the M family will be written off."
"How enviable, Mr. Feiya. Most of us have some involvement with the M family. The only one who was inexplicably involved should be Officer Sanwang."
"I'm fine."
"Is it really okay?" Cesar suddenly asked, "Mr. Hummingbird?"
Officer Sanwang chose to remain silent on this matter, but there weren't any complete fools among those present.
This is basically the default.
337
"So, to sum up, I believe Officer Sanwang is indeed Hummingbird. While the evidence is insufficient to establish proof, it's sufficient for deduction," said Kamohashi Ron. "His gaze always, intentionally or unintentionally, focuses on areas where most people excel, and he can even judge the extent to which they apply their talents—when Robin is using words to induce, when I'm reasoning, when Mr. Fea is practicing wilderness survival... Furthermore, I contacted Ms. Monki Chieri briefly and got an interesting answer from her."
"I know the truth, but mobile phones are out of reach on this island. How did you contact Miss Chieri?" Isshiki Totumaru couldn't help but ask.
"Toto, have you forgotten that we consulted a communications expert before we came to the island? At least a large number of people can see the live broadcast. Miss Chieri was worried about your safety, so she also entered the live broadcast room. We can communicate through the barrage." Kamonohashi Ron said, "It's not as troublesome as you think."
It’s better to say that most things are actually very simple, but sometimes people are good at thinking about them in complicated ways.
"Sometimes you don't need to overthink. The more you think, the more complicated simple things become. It's better to use the simplest method." Kamohashi Ron said, "This is something I learned from experience."
"Just like when you had nothing to do, you asked me to pull out the M family's network cable?"
"That's true in theory, but I didn't let him unplug the M family's network cable very often, did I? It seems like it was only twice." Kamonohashi Ron said with some distress, "If he really had him unplug the network cable many times, even the most useless M family would have noticed, right?"
"That seems to be true." Isshiki Totsumaru wasn't too surprised. "It seems like you've unplugged M's network cable several times."
"Because I always unplug their network cables when I have something important to do, that's why you're probably impressed by it." Kamohashi Ron explained casually.
"perhaps."

Robin and Tai are conducting a search. Although Tai really wants to complain that this is theft, Robin cleverly says, "How can this be considered theft? We are clearly conducting a search."
The shaggy-haired man pointed at the unconscious Eli Moriarty and said, "Did the search force knock this guy unconscious?"
Wouldn't it be better to just show your ID, explain the situation, and then go straight in to search?
"Attacking a criminal falls under the category of self-defense. After all, he wasn't actually killed. Besides, isn't it normal to knock a criminal unconscious in front of you for the purpose of protecting yourself?" Robin said righteously. He truly believed that there was absolutely nothing wrong with what he said.
"As expected of a lawyer, your rhetoric is brilliant," said the shrew. "It's a pity that I've already negotiated a legal settlement in my case, otherwise I would have you defend me."
"Ha, you haven't forgotten that I was Kamohashi Ron's defense lawyer during the Blood Internship Case, right?" Robin suddenly asked.
"Ah? Of course I know, but what's the problem with that?" Shan was a little confused, then he seemed to think of something and couldn't help but said, "Wait, you don't mean that, do you? That's too cruel."
"After all, I have to be responsible for my client. If the murderer who pretended to be Kamohashi was not found, as Kamohashi's lawyer, I would definitely insist that you were the real murderer." Robin said, "Kamonohashi is one of the few cases where I was able to defend him."
Chi: "..."
Honestly, wasn't that the prosecutor's fault? Who told Prosecutor Kazama, who was in charge of the case at the time, to make the indictment? Then, the evidence Prosecutor Kazama presented was so savagely undermined by the testimony of witnesses that the judge ultimately ruled him not guilty.
"In most cases, we can only seek a reduced sentence for the person involved. Occasionally, manslaughter is ruled an accident, which is already a good thing." Robin sighed, "Hey, I got what I wanted. Hurry, hurry, run."
After hearing this, the carp also jumped away quickly. This was the time that Kamohashi Ron had won for them to avoid interference with the island's surveillance video. Although the communication expert who was working there complained a lot, he still helped out at the Metropolitan Police Department when he heard that it was a matter related to the M family.
Just as Robin and Tai were leaving, Tai realized something: "Did we forget something?"
Robin: "...You haven't forgotten?"
Eli Moriarty, who was left behind by the two of them, slowly opened his eyes, "What happened just now? I seemed to have fainted." He tried to recall what happened at that time, but failed.
"Forget it, it shouldn't be anything important..."

"It's indeed 'Asteroid Dynamics'." Kamohashi Ron got a certain paper that Alice had been hiding from Robin. After reading it, he had a rather bad premonition. To be precise, it was no longer a premonition, but a speculation after reading it.
"Lun, what's wrong? You look very bad." Isshiki Dudumaru asked.
"It seems you're right, Dudu. Alice really doesn't want to leave here alive, but she also doesn't seem to want anyone else to leave," Kamonohashi said. "A meteorite will probably fall on this island soon."
Isshiki Todumaru: "Seriously?!"
"At least after seeing the manuscript of that crime lord, I think he's serious."
