Conan: The winner is justice

“Now let’s discuss the final verdict!”

The judge and the jurors on both sides confirmed each other.

"This court has pronounced its verdict and rejected the prosecutor's request for prosecution. The defendant is not found guilty of intentional homicide and is acquitted!"

"The trial is over. Leave the court!"

The sound of the gavel marked the end of the lawsuit.

In fact, under normal circumstances, it may not be so easy.

For example, some jurors may be tongue-tied and ask random questions.

The witness will be asked to confirm that the testimony is correct, and the defendant will be asked about his opinion of the victim. After all, according to the last information provided by Long Xu Zhengnan, there does seem to be enmity between the defendant and the victim, and there is the possibility of a murder motive.

But none of those jurors ended up doing it.

Because, from the very beginning, not only the prosecutor, but also everyone was led by Gu Meimen.

Of course, the matter will not be solved so easily. After all, a dog killed a person, so according to the law, the principle of no-fault liability will be followed, and Sakaguchi's civil liability will be investigated later.

"Just, is it that simple?"

Defendant Masayoshi Sakaguchi seemed unresponsive before leaving the court.

Was he really acquitted like this?

Although you may have to lose money later, you won't have to go to jail, which is great news.

"Of course, human eyes and ears always have indirect abnormalities."

The corners of Gu Meimen's lips curled up, and she glanced at the heads of the jurors who were about to leave.

Some of their favorability and approval levels reached three levels, and some reached four levels.

I have to admit that Gu Meimen's performance in court is still very contagious and can easily affect people's emotions.

Too blind sensibility affects the judgment of these people.

"Okay, Mr. Sakaguchi, you are now acquitted and it's time to fulfill your previous promise."

Gu Meimen smiled, took out two fingers and rubbed them.

Masayoshi Sakaguchi came to his senses and nodded: "Don't worry, Mr. Gu Meimen, I will send the check to you."

"Oh, you are such a generous and kind person!"

The two men had left the courtroom and were talking in the hallway.

At this time, a calm voice suddenly appeared behind him.

"Is this really okay?"

Turning around, I saw Conan standing in front of me.

He put his hands in his pockets and looked directly into Masayoshi Sakaguchi's eyes.

"Uncle Sakaguchi, do you plan to escape the condemnation of your conscience and live in uneasiness every day, continue like this?"

Faced with Conan's question, Masayoshi Sakaguchi hesitated.

He did kill someone, after all.

"I……"

"Child, can you please stop talking here and beguile others, and go home and play with your mother like a baby, okay?"

Komemon raised his eyebrows, interrupted Sakaguchi's words, waved at Conan like a dog, and was about to leave with Masayoshi Sakaguchi.

"John's instructions were done by you, right?"

Conan's voice came from behind again, with a serious attitude.

"You have been at three o'clock and one line every day for the past twenty days."

"Go to Uncle Sakaguchi's detention center in the morning and get his scent."

"I came to Uncle Sakaguchi's house in the afternoon to train John on command elimination."

"Because he smells like Uncle Sakaguchi, John listens to you very much, so the training will not be any difficult. Although the time is only twenty days, you only need to eliminate the last instruction, so that the entire logic chain will be If it collapses, the evidence will not be established, and Uncle Sakaguchi will also escape the guilt of murder because of your defense.”

Gu Meimen's footsteps stopped.

"It's like you've seen it with your own eyes, kid."

He turned around, came to Conan again, and looked at him with a smile.

"So, do you have any evidence? Or are you wearing a recording device and secretly filming other people's privacy here?"

"Don't worry, I didn't bring a recording device, and I don't have any evidence."

Conan took his hands out of his pockets and turned both trouser pockets inside out.

"Even if you take pictures of evidence, it's still useless." Gu Meimen said with a smile, "Because everything I do is legal, after the dog escapes the control of the prosecutor's office, strictly speaking it is no longer considered evidence. This is the biggest negligence of the procuratorate. I just visit my friend’s dog every day and play with it.”

Conan was silent for a moment.

"Indeed, the law cannot punish you for what you did." He looked directly into Gu Meimen's eyes: "But, I just want to ask you, you are so on the edge of the law, do you despise the law?"

Gu Meimen looked back at him, listening to his serious tone.

He smiled and suddenly said: "Conan, I also want to ask you a question. That is, detectives like you... are you afraid of the law?"

Conan frowned: "What do you mean?"

"There are some things that can only be understood by truly studying them in depth."

Gu Meimen said so.

"Before studying law, I thought that the role of law was to support justice, punish evil and promote good, and bring criminals to justice. Well, this is the public concept! However, after truly studying law, , I deeply understood the role that the law really wants to express... Do you know what it is?"

Conan pondered for a moment and said: "It is fairness. The law needs to safeguard the fairness of everyone, including the rights and interests of criminals."

"It seems you still have some brains, but this is only one aspect."

Gu Meimen snapped his fingers.

There was a pause.

"Before safeguarding fairness, it also has the biggest function, which is to intimidate."

"It is said that law enforcement must be strict and violations must be punished. When a person dares not or gives up committing acts prohibited by criminal law because he is afraid of the sanctions of criminal law, this is a deterrent and is also the real purpose of the law."

"In every case that your detectives cracked, before the incident happened, the prisoners did their best, using elaborate layouts to cover up the scene, or to frame the suspects, and used various means to avoid being caught. possibility."

"This is the deterrent effect of the law. Its purpose has actually been achieved. Although the prisoners still killed people, they were afraid of being caught and going to jail. They were afraid of the law, so they were cautious and walked on thin ice."

"Then, the same position changes to you detectives..."

"I would like to ask, Conan, are you afraid of the law?"

"..."

"..."

Conan fell silent.

Gu Meimen continued: "You don't. Detectives have never been afraid of the law. You can commit illegal acts without any psychological burden. As long as you shout in your heart, I am doing this for justice, I am doing this to catch you." Criminal, I am representing the law... Yes, just like you did last time, Conan, when you used a recording device, did you ever do it? It is illegal for me to do this. I will be caught doing this. Have you ever? Such an idea?"

"As a lawyer, like ordinary people, I am still afraid of the law. Because I know what the law represents. So regarding what you said, I will try my best to prevent others from catching me."

"But you didn't, and all the detectives didn't. No one thought about what they had done and would be caught. The deterrent effect of the law did not reach you. You violated others' rights in various ways with peace of mind. Rights and interests, and they don’t even cover up when breaking the law.”

"So, aren't you the ones who despise the law?"

"..."

"..."

Conan lowered his head and meditated silently.

The lenses in his eyes glowed.

Yes, what Gu Meimen said just now was almost another soul questioning.

After a while, he suddenly raised his head.

"Say all this, but it cannot change the fact that you fabricated evidence to help the real criminal escape the punishment of the law."

"Oh, I've already said it, that's not forged evidence, why don't you understand? I'm a serious lawyer! I've never done anything illegal or criminal! My kid, you said this because you want to produce evidence. drop!"

Gu Meimen started to smile again, as if the serious words he just said were spoken by another person.

He turned around and patted Masayoshi Sakaguchi on the shoulder.

"Okay, let's ignore this little guy playing detective games. Now it's time for adults. Mr. Sakaguchi, I have done so many things for you, so you have to treat me to a good meal!"

"..."

Masayoshi Sakaguchi moved his mouth, but ultimately said nothing.

He sighed, glanced at Conan one last time, and then left the corridor with Gu Meimen.

Conan stayed there quietly, watching Gu Meimen's leaving figure.

His fists clenched subconsciously.

In any case, although this person did not break the law, he wandered on the edge of the law, helped prisoners plead innocent, and helped them escape legal punishment.

And looking at him like this, it seems that he has always planned to continue like this for the rest of his career.

No matter what, Conan couldn't accept this.

Just wait, no matter what, I will catch you doing the real crime and let you show your flaws!

One day, I will also send you to prison!
