"The appraiser's appeal is reasonable. Please continue to state the appraisal results. The opposing lawyer please sit down."
After hearing Karasawa's words, the judge quickly agreed that he should continue to state the results of the identification of physical evidence, and rejected Yamazaki Tomei's request to stop the statement.
After hearing what the judge said, Tomei Yamazaki could only sit back at her desk even if she was unwilling to do so.
The main reason is that Karasawa's request is legal and compliant, and Yamazaki Tomomi even asked him to conduct an appraisal, so naturally there is no way to interfere.
At this moment, the faces of Yamazaki Tomi and Xiangzuki Cheng no longer have the calmness and pride that showed they were sure of victory, but only an unexpected amount of fear and uneasiness.
After all, in their expectation, even if their ruse was discovered, they would not be able to use the additional evidence from the investigation as evidence due to the identity of the trial and forensic examiners.
But now, everything seems to be beyond their expectations.
"Among the evidence re-identified, there is video footage taken near the crime scene."
While operating the computer, Karasawa explained: "This is a video shot by the university for the purpose of studying wild birds.
At that time, because the victim’s screams were recorded, it was regarded as relevant evidence and was included in the Kyoto Police Department’s criminal exhibits.”
After hearing this, everyone looked at the list of exhibits on the table and quickly confirmed the existence of this item.
In other words, the evidence mentioned by Tang Ze is reasonable and legal, and it was indeed included in his appraisal work, so it is a reasonable and legal due process appraisal.
So no one can stop what he is saying at this moment.
Because everything is reasonable and legal.
"The following is the sound wave diagram of the sound. Now I am starting to play this part. Please listen carefully."
Karasawa naturally saw Yamazaki Tomi and others searching the evidence catalog, but he ignored his own explanation while operating his laptop.
As Tangze clicked to play, the next moment there were chaotic sounds in the video. The sound of running water and birdsong were mixed with other sounds, which made it difficult to hear clearly.
"The video just now contained the victim's screams, which could not be heard clearly due to the external environment. Now let's remove noises such as birdsong. Please listen to it again."
After some operations by Karasawa, most of the thick lines that originally represented audio fluctuations were eliminated, leaving only two clips.
Tangze clicked play again, and this time the video was blank at first. After the first fluctuating audio, a horrified scream appeared in the video.
There was a brief blank after this mournful cry, and then there was a heavy falling sound, like a heavy object hitting the ground.
"Judging from the vibration noise from behind, it can be determined that it was the sound of the deceased Ms. Sayoko falling to the ground."
Tangze said: "But there is another special sound wave found further back from the mournful sound.
That’s the sound.”
Tang Ze pulled the audio to the back and clicked play again. The next moment, an empty siren sounded in the courtroom.
"What I just played was the siren sound when the dam is opening the gate to release water."
Tangze explained: "The result of consultation with the Shuiyueshan local management office was that the call was made at 2:58 in the afternoon on the day of the incident.
So the result became like this.
The victim's fall time was around 2:52, and then 6 minutes later, an alarm sounded to open the gate and release water.
On the other hand, there was no sound in the video at 3 o'clock sharp when the camera was filming."
Hearing Karasawa's words, everyone in the Kyoto Police Station was overjoyed, but Xiangyue Joichi's face turned pale and his eyes were filled with fear.
"Appraiser, what exactly is going on? Please explain in detail!"
The judge also heard something wrong with the evidence and quickly urged Tang Ze to give a more detailed explanation.
"On the day of the incident, the defendant Kozuki Joichi and the deceased Sayoko went to Suigetsu Mountain together. When they arrived at the middle of the suspension bridge, Kozuki Joichi pushed Ms. Sayoko off the suspension bridge."
Tangze said: "During the scuffle, Xiangyue Chengyi pushed his wife off the suspension bridge and injured his arm.
And this time happened at 2:52.
After that, he crossed the suspension bridge and came to the pavilion. In order to pretend that the two of them had fought with each other here, he threw the button at the sign.
Not only that, he also rubbed his sleeve against the sign, leaving debris on the sleeve, and knocked the sign over to make it look like the two were arguing there.
Afterwards, the accomplice who quietly followed the two men met with Xiangyue Chengyi on the suspension bridge. The two acted as stand-ins for the victim and took the innocent photo.
After all, it was impossible for Ms. Sayoko who fell at 2:52 to be photographed by the surveillance camera scheduled at 3 o'clock eight minutes later.
Therefore, the identification result of our scientific research is that the person who fell in the photo is someone else wearing the same clothes as the deceased!
At 3 o'clock when the surveillance camera was about to take the picture, the other party cooperated with the defendant and forged the exculpatory photo.
There are electronic timers in the evidence that can also support this.
Of course, this is a slight digression."
Having said this, Karasawa looked at the judge and concluded: "Then the results of the Tokyo Science Search Institute's judgment are as follows.
This photo proves the defendant's criminal behavior of forging the scene according to his own intention at the time of the crime.
The above are all our identification results, please let the judge make a judgment."
After finishing speaking, he smiled at Xiangyue Joichi and Yamazaki Tomei, but their faces were pale at the moment, with regret and fear in their eyes. When facing Karasawa, they seemed to have seen a demon seeking their lives.
Presumably both of them are regretting why they came to provoke Tang Ze and ended up in this situation.
But now, it's all too late.
"The appraiser can withdraw."
No matter how the two people's hearts fluctuated, the judge still continued to advance the trial process.
After hearing the judge's words, Tang Ze bowed slightly and immediately walked out the door.
The judge's voice followed closely behind.
"Regarding the case of Xiangyue Joichi suspected of killing Xiangyue Sayoko, there is sufficient evidence to determine that Xiangyue Joichi is the murderer!"
"However, due to the new identification results of this case, a new accomplice suspect has appeared in the case evidence, so the trial results will not be announced for the time being. After the accomplice is identified, the case will be reopened!"
With the judge's decision, the trial finally came to an end.
Xiangzuki Joichi was escorted away by the prison guards in despair, while Yamazaki Tomei walked out of the court door with heavy steps holding the documents.
