When Fang Zheng and Conan returned to their original space, everything was over.
"The end of the second round of the game, what do you think?"
Opposite them, Beatrice was sitting on the sofa, looking at the two of them with a smile, while Conan was staring at her intently.
"You are just cheating!"
It's no wonder Conan said that. Not long ago, they learned from Zangju that Ushiromiya Kinzo had already died, and then the two sides were arguing. But at this moment, Beatrice suddenly appeared, and then summoned seven strange spikes to kill everyone present, announcing her victory...
Conan naturally couldn't accept this!
You might as well say that an earthquake suddenly occurred on Rokukenjima and everyone was crushed to death in the villa! How can this be considered a murder case! !
"Okay, don't get excited, at least we have a clue."
Fang Zheng held Conan down, then turned and walked to Naruhodō Ryuichi, whispered a few words to him, and then handed him the document in his hand.
"That's all for now. I can confirm it as evidence."
"this……"
Naruhodō Ryuichi lowered his head, glanced through it quickly, and then frowned.
"But Mr. Fang Zheng, this is far from enough..."
"This is just the beginning. I will submit more evidence next time, but for now... this is all."
"And Mr. Fang Zheng and I's reasoning is..."
Conan had now recovered his breath and came over, whispering his opinion in front of Naruhodo. Naruhodo listened and nodded, then looked at the two of them.
"I understand. Leave it to me from now on."
Having said that, Naruhodō Ryuichi took the documents and walked to the front of the stage, staring at Beatrice who was sitting on the sofa opposite and drinking tea leisurely - well, although this scene was a bit weird, but for Naruhodō Ryuichi, he had seen ghosts, radios and witnesses eating snacks in court, so there was nothing strange about it.
"Then, leave it to Miss Beatrice to give your testimony."
"There's nothing to say."
Facing Naruhodō Ryuichi's remarks, Beatrice seemed very calm.
"As you can see, on this night on Rokukenjima, I sent a letter to all members of Ushiromiya's family, hoping that they would play a game with me..."
"etc!"
However, before Beatrice could finish her words, she was interrupted by Naruhodō Ryuichi, who slammed the table with both hands and looked at Beatrice.
"So, you mean to say that Beatrice is an outsider."
"Of course. I am the Golden Witch. You have already seen it, haven't you? I am different from them. I am the alchemist consultant of the Ushiromiya clan..."
"So what you mean is that Beatrice is an outsider and does not exist in the villa on Rokukenjima?"
"That's what I mean."
Hearing Naruhodō Ryuichi's question, Beatrice put down her teacup and her expression became a little stiff.
"I have a list here."
As he spoke, Naruhodō took out the list that Fang Zheng had given him earlier.
"This is the official list of people who were on Rokukenjima at the time. I didn't find Beatrice's name on this list. So, do you think Beatrice is not among them?"
"……certainly."
“Then I want you to repeat this in red letters—Beatrice is not on this list of people on Rokukenjima!”
"…I refuse."
Facing Naruhodō Ryuichi's question, Beatrice's expression became a little distorted, but she still answered in a low voice.
"So, can I assume that Beatrice is someone on this list?"
"So what?"
At this moment, facing Phoenix Wright, Beatrice became proud again.
“I am the Golden Witch. I can naturally transform into any person at will. I can even get close to them without them noticing. I can even use scarlet words to explain - ‘Someone on this list is indeed Beatrice’!”
"this……"
Hearing this, Naruhodō Ryuichi was also sweating profusely.
He originally wanted to force the other party to admit his true identity, but she actually said, "Because I'm a witch, I can turn into anyone I want."... Is there anyone who is so dishonest as you? !
Fortunately, Naruhodō has seen many strange witnesses in his career as a lawyer, and this is not the only one.
"Mr. Fang Zheng, she is just making trouble!"
Unlike Naruhodō Ryuichi, Conan next to him was so angry that he was jumping up and down. In reality, Conan had never seen such a twisted criminal suspect. No matter what happened, he attributed it to magic. Murder was magic, transformation was magic, and the secret room was also magic. No matter what it was, it was all done with just one word: magic...
In reality, most of the criminals Conan encountered still had some dignity. Even if some of them would attribute the incident to some weird talk or magic, they would not be so unreasonable. However, Beatrice in front of him was the most shameless criminal suspect Conan had ever seen...
"It doesn't matter. Anyway, we have obtained a very important clue."
"Yeah?"
Hearing Fang Zheng's words, Conan looked at him.
"Why do you think Beatrice ended the second game so quickly?"
"It's really strange. In the first round, at least everyone was killed. The second round just started, and there was no incident, but she came out and killed everyone and declared the game over..."
At this point, Conan's eyes lit up.
"That is to say, she wants to cover up something!"
"Yes, we are close to the truth. In fact, perhaps what happened before was the closest we were to the truth."
Fang Zheng turned his head and looked at Naruhodō and Beatrice on the stage.
Meanwhile, Beatrice was still telling stories to Naruhodō.
"That's it. So I used magic to summon the Black Nails of the Seven Deadly Sins and killed them all..."
"I have objections!!"
However, before Beatrice could finish her words, Naruhodō interrupted her with an angry shout. He then picked up the report again and looked at the golden witch.
"It's clearly written in the report that only Ushiromiya Ewa survived the Rokukenjima incident, but you said you killed everyone. That's impossible!"
As he spoke, Naruhodō suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed at Beatrice.
As he moved, Fang Zheng and Conan saw a gust of wind rising from the ground, whistling and spinning directly towards Beatrice, hitting the Golden Witch like a hammer. Then Beatrice screamed and flew backwards.
"...Fang Zheng, what is this?"
"Game effects, game effects, don't worry about it."
Facing Conan's question, Fang Zheng was unusually calm. At the same time, Beatrice staggered to her feet, stared at Phoenix Wright, opened her mouth to say something, but then a mouthful of blood spurted out of her mouth.
"She vomited blood."
"Special effects are like this, otherwise how can they be called special effects?"
Fang Zheng remained calm.
"As a game, there has to be some exaggerated effect."
"Well, maybe that's it..."
Conan could only nod his head to show his acceptance of Fang Zheng's explanation. After all, he was a game idiot and had no talent for games. As far as I can remember, the games Conan had played were, apart from the high-tech "The Phantom of Baker Street", FC games such as Tank Battle and Pac-Man...
"Very good, you have succeeded in irritating me..."
Beatrice slowly got up, then took out a handkerchief and wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth.
"In that case, I will tell you the truth about Rokukenjima!"
At this moment, as Beatrice spoke, the world shattered again.
The sound of waves came from outside, and Fang Zheng lowered his head and looked at the woman in front of him.
"Woo...Fang Zheng..."
Under him, Lou Zuo's cheeks flushed slightly. She hugged Fang Zheng tightly with both hands, while Fang Zheng lowered his head and held her lips firmly.
"Don't talk."
“Woo…”
Feeling Fang Zheng's kiss, Lou Zuo closed her eyes. Her lonely body at this moment seemed to be a piece of dry wood that was ignited and began to become hot again.
Hearing Fang Zheng's whispered question in her ear, Lou Zuo's cheeks flushed. At this moment, she didn't look like a single mother raising a child at all. Instead, she looked like a young girl who was just beginning to fall in love.
"Come to think of it, why are you so angry at Maria? It's just a witch legend."
Fang Zheng asked in a low voice while biting his ear. This time, they sped up when they came to the world of the third round again. The "plot position" they were in was just before dinner. Just like the previous two timelines, Rosa and Maria had a conflict because of the missing rose, and then Rosa left angrily, and then waited until it rained before returning to look for Maria, only to find that she was holding an umbrella...
After that, Maria went back to her room to rest, and Fang Zheng brought Lou Zuo to their room, where they had an in-depth conversation.
"You don't understand... Actually... it's not just a legend."
"oh?"
Hearing this, Fang Zheng's eyes lit up.
"How do you say it?"
"actually……"
Facing Fang Zheng's question, Lou Zuo hesitated a little, as if she was thinking about whether to say it out loud, but the next moment, she hummed softly.
"Wait, don't touch that..."
"You can't tell me?"
Fang Zheng rubbed it with his right hand, feeling the soft touch, and asked in a low voice.
"No, no, actually..."
Having said this, Lou Zuo paused for a moment, then turned around and looked at Fang Zheng.
"Actually... I once met Beatrice..."
Then she spoke.
