"Now the time has come, today the day has come when I can show Ino, my mentor, what I have learned from her so far." My thoughts raced over and my heart pounded hard in my chest. "Sasuke, there is no need to be so excited.", She smiled reassuringly at me and I could read the confidence in her eyes. “Thank you.” I was glad that she stood by my side, but the doubts still consumed me. Would I even manage this fall? It was my first, after all, and then a murder case. Actually, I would never have taken him over, since I only recently became a criminal defense lawyer, but I have to get him out of there by all means I have.
"Suigetsu, hold on," I pleaded inside myself before the bailiff called us into the courtroom. "Are you ready Sasuke?", Ino looked at me questioningly. I nodded briefly before going into the courtroom with her. But we weren't the first, because both the public prosecutor and the judge were already in the room. I immediately felt that all eyes were on me. I tried to appear as uninvolved as possible and sat on my side of the room. I looked briefly at Ino, who nodded to me and pulled a chair over to sit on my right side. “Now that everyone is here, we can start the negotiation.” From one moment to the next, my heart began to beat even faster than before. Cold Switzerland formed on my forehead and a lump formed in my throat.
"You are new, am I right?", Smiling the judge looked at me. Her hazel eyes shone with curiosity and her long, blonde hair was tied in two pigtails. "Y ... yes I am.", My voice sounded rough and I felt Ino's worried look. “All right, but don't think that you will be given special consideration.” Her strict words immediately hit me and I had to swallow, but I could not and could not give up, which is why I nodded again. I had to swallow again because now the defendant and at the same time my old school friend, Suigetsu Houzuki, entered the hall. Immediately after he sat down on the interrogation chair, he was asked for his personal details. "My name is Suigetsu Houzuki and I am unemployed at the moment."
"Ms. Hyuga, please start.", Asked the judge and leaned back on her seat. A petite woman, roughly the same age as me, suddenly moved across from me. Her long, dark blue hair was loose, and she was also wearing a dark purple blazer with a matching skirt. Her lilac-colored eyes examined me briefly before she even began to speak: "Yes, your honor. The defendant Suigetsu Houzuki is accused on 23.November 7:40 pm last year, the beautician Sakura Haruno was murdered by a cut in her throat and her body was thrown into the Karasu River. "The quiet whispering of the audience, I could hear myself up to my seat. Behind me I felt Ino's eyes and her delicate hand on my shoulder calmed me down more and more.
"Mr. Houzuki, tell us what you did on the evening of the crime and where you were at the time of the crime?" The judge had leaned a little out of her chair and looked impatiently at Suigetsu. "I didn't murder Sakura. Why should I have done that? I loved her!" He yelled at the judge. Inwardly, I grabbed my head and prayed that the white-haired man would shut up. "Quiet!", The murmuring of the audience died away and Suigetsu also kept her mouth shut when the judge called. "Defendant, I asked you something!" A worried mood set in in the hall and I could already feel that it was all going to take a nasty turn. "It's okay, I'll tell you what happened. I was at home at the time and watched TV. However, I wanted to see my beloved Sakura and then went to her, but I swear I didn't kill her. "The judge nodded briefly before turning to me. "Mr. Uchiha, you can now start the cross-examination."
I had to briefly think about what the cross-examination was again, but suddenly I heard a low whisper: "Sasuke, you now have to find the contradictions in his statement." I looked at Ino briefly before looking at Suigetsu. "Suigetsu, when did you go to the victim?", He thought for a while, but then: "It must have been around 7:05 pm, you know that I don't have a car and the subway always needs that way Long.". "When did you get to the victim?", "Sasuke, don't call her that! After all, she has a name. But I arrived about three quarters of an hour later." A grin crept onto my lips. "So it has already been proven that my client couldn't have started the murder, after all, he didn't arrive at the victim's apartment until 7:50 pm."
"Unfortunately, I cannot agree with you. Mr. Uchiha, the one on the murder weapon, the fingerprints of the accused were clearly found and these were the only prints." "Besides, this knife belongs to her clients. So who else would have used the knife?" I began to sweat and the lump in my throat grew bigger and bigger. "Sasuke calms you down and don't let yourself be drawn out of the reserve. The public prosecutor is usually very shy, but in the courtroom you know why she bears the title of public prosecutor." Ino was right, before the trial she was very different from now, so i had to be careful.
"Suigetsu, what did you see when you got to the apartment?"," What did I see? Umm, to be honest, I can't remember it. "My childhood friend scratched his head guiltily." Are you really sure? Then where did they get your jackknife from? “I felt Suigetsu's discomfort, but I had to solve this case and needed as much evidence as possible so that the white-haired man could be a free man again had pulled. "," So you were attacked? "
Everything was quiet in the courtroom, everyone was waiting for Suigetsu's answer, but before he could even answer, the prosecution spoke: "It can only have been the defendant, after all we have a witness who is said to have seen Mr. Houzuki throwing the body into the river. ". "Okay, then let's end that and we'd rather listen to the witnesses.", The judge seemed bored while Switzerland broke out and I prepared myself mentally and morally for the witness.
A short time later he was called in. Grinning, he took the chair in the middle and brushed his long black hair back. "Name and profession of witness?", The voice of the public prosecutor seemed so sure and so atypical to her appearance. "My name is Orochimaru and I am an employee of a pet shop for exotic animals, if you understand what I mean.", "Tell us what happened!", The mood of the blonde judge seemed to have sunk to zero, but the witness immediately began to close tell.
"Well, I went for a walk and since I don't like to use the paths, I walked along the banks of the Karasu River. When I wanted to walk past the small pier for the rowing boats, I saw a person who was something big, long, Throwing something wrapped in fabric into one of the boats and then taking something out onto the water. "That looked bad to me as I noticed and I wondered how I could now uncover the innocence of my friend.
"Sasuke, don't you notice this contradiction? How is the witness supposed to have observed Mr. Houzuki when he only arrived at the apartment after the murder?", My blonde mentor looked at me urgently and I knew what she meant, but how could I just prove that? "At what time did you watch what you saw?" I saw Orochimaru's grin grow bigger. I got a feeling that this guy had something to do with the case. "That was exactly 7:50 pm.", "That can't be.", The black-haired looked at me in disbelief.
"But I saw him.", "Unfortunately I have to disappoint you, because Mr. Houzuki had just arrived at the victim's apartment at this time." I saw the witness winced slightly and I was firmly convinced that he was now in to have the trap. "Objection, why should the witness lie? It could only have been the accused!" Shouted the prosecutor, which surprised me a little.But this only solidified my thesis. "Have you ever read the autopsy report more carefully?" The prosecution looked at me uncertainly, but now I saw my chance. "The autopsy report says that the death occurred at 7:40 pm. However, my client came ten minutes later, that is, someone else must have committed the murder and is now blaming Mr. Houzuki!"
Wild whispers could be heard from the audience and I saw myself winning. "Quiet, quiet, I say! So and who is supposed to have committed the murder?", The judge looked at me urgently and although I was so sure beforehand, doubts arose in me. "Sasuke, you only have this one chance, you now have to present the right piece of evidence and don't forget what I taught you. You have to trust your client, even if it is difficult for him to win or fall with you.", Inwardly I thanked Ino, but now I didn't have much time because the judge was getting more and more impatient.
"The killer is the witness Orochimaru, whom Suigetsu would never have managed to kill the victim, let alone get to the river. Because as you may know, the Karasu River is outside the city and it takes about ten minutes by car from the apartment of the victim to the river. But Suigetsu doesn't have one, as he has already said and wouldn't it attract anyone's attention if someone ran through the city with something that big or even took the bus? " Silence enveloped the courtroom before the blue-haired woman spoke up first. "Your theory is quite amusing, but where would the witness have got the murder weapon and, above all, why were there only traces of your client on it?"
The smile on the prosecution's pale face made me wince. First I had to think about it and inwardly went through Suigetsu's statement again. "You are mistaken Mrs. Hyuga, because the witness is the murderer. Do you remember that Mr. Houzuki said that someone had pulled something over the head? Then maybe you can imagine what I'm getting at, that is Orochimaru had knocked Suigetsu unconscious and killed the victim with his jackknife. "" Your theory is haunted. Why should the witness
