Conan: The winner is justice

Chapter 151 Xiao Ai: He is here to break up this family, not to join it

"..."

Fei Yingli's stretched out hand suddenly froze again.

His face, which had just warmed up a moment ago, suddenly turned cold like summer to winter.

"Kogoro, what you just said is absolutely true?"

Feiyingli's face was frosty, staring closely into Mouri Kogoro's eyes.

"Let me ask you again, are you really not going to gamble again in the future?"

Facing his wife's stern gaze, Mouri Kogoro swallowed subconsciously.

"I, of course I won't gamble again!"

He forced a smile.

"Yingli, I am your husband, you must believe me!"

"Yeah?"

Feiyingli stared at Mouri Kogoro's face.

Beads of sweat broke out on Mouri Kogoro's forehead, and he managed to keep a smile on his face.

After a moment, Fei Yingli's blue pupils showed a complicated look.

It was a mixture of disappointment, helplessness, resentment, sadness, and all kinds of emotions.

She took a deep look at her husband, shook her head, sighed, and pushed the chocolate away from her husband's hand.

Without saying another word, she held up her umbrella, turned around and walked out of the court door.

Before leaving, Fei Yingli turned back and glanced in the direction of the hall.

However, the object she faced this time was Gu Meimen.

There seems to be a deep meaning in the eyes.

Finally, she left and walked outside.

"Yingli, what's wrong with you? Yingli, come back!"

Mouri Kogoro shouted from behind.

Fei Yingli's footsteps were heavy, as if she hadn't heard anything, and she disappeared from everyone's sight little by little amid the silver threads in the sky.

"Asshole, look what nice things you just said!"

Mouri Kogoro turned around and looked at Gu Meimen's face, his eyes almost bursting with fire.

"You let my wife run away again, you know that? You bastard!"

He rushed up and grabbed Gu Meimen by the collar.

Gu Meimen looked at him without any fear.

"Yes, that's the expression!"

He still had a smile on his face.

"This is the expression of a helpless husband after his wife ran away! If you can perform it more deeply, more vividly and excitingly, don't let me get too bored!"

"You, you..."

Mouri Kogoro's teeth chattered in anger, and his fingers holding Komemon's collar were trembling.

"Dad, go chase mom!"

At this time, Mao Lilan's anxious voice came to his ears.

"If it's too late, there won't be any chance!"

Only then did Mouri Kogoro come to his senses and quickly let go of his hand. He didn't even bother to hold up his umbrella and ran outside in the rain.

"Remember it, bastard!"

Before leaving, he yelled viciously at Gu Meimen.

Gu Meimen didn't hear anything at all. She stretched out her hands to pick out her ears and blew the dust off her hands.

After a while, calm returned to the court hall.

Gu Meimen was about to leave with him.

A figure flashed in front of him, and Mao Lilan opened his arms to block him.

"Why are you doing this!" Mao Lilan asked angrily, "My parents finally reconciled, but now you ruined them all! Don't you think you can't see others at all?"

"Hey, hey, come on without opening your mouth."

Gu Meimen looked at Mao Lilan's angry expression and almost laughed again.

"Let's make one thing clear first. You said that your parents are finally reconciled. According to the development of the plot, is this possible?"

"ah?"

Mao Lilan was stunned and didn't react.

"Based on your parents' character and behavior, do you think they will really reconcile?"

"Of course we will make up!" Mao Lilan said matter-of-factly, "My father has sincerely apologized just now, and he said he would never gamble again!"

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, little girl, you are too young!"

Gu Meimen stretched out a finger and shook it gently in front of Mao Lilan.

"In this world, there are two types of people whose words are the most untrustworthy, and one of them is people addicted to gambling. Didn't you hear what I just said? Can you believe the apology from a dog gambler? This kind of How can a person really quit gambling? Do you think that with the way your father behaves, he will keep his word?"

"..."

Mao Lilan opened her mouth, but didn't say the last word.

After staying with Mouri Kogoro for more than ten years, to be honest, even she herself didn't believe that her father would quit gambling.

After a long silence, Mao Lilan raised his head.

"I don't understand. What's your purpose of interfering with my parents' affairs?"

There was a trace of confusion in the girl's angry eyes.

"Could it be that……"

She seemed to have thought of something, and her expression when she looked at Gu Meimen became a little strange.

"You guy, you have a crush on my mother?"

"..."

Gu Meimen turned to look at Xiao Ai beside her.

"Have you seen, what is love brain? This is love brain."

Mao Lilan frowned slightly: "Did I say it wrong?"

Xiao Ai rolled her eyes at Gu Meimen and couldn't help but say: "Sister Xiaolan, what's that... to be precise, he is here to break up this family, not to join it."

Mao Lilan glanced at her and then looked at Gu Meimen: "If it's not the case, then what is your purpose?"

"It has no purpose."

Gu Meimen looked relaxed.

"I see that your family is harmonious, but my psychology is twisted and makes me feel uncomfortable, so I have to mess with you. Why, don't you feel good?"

Xiao Ai on the side was speechless.

It’s just this guy Gu Meimen, how can anyone else talk like this.

However, Gu Meimen's words did not dispel Mao Lilan's doubts.

"Really?"

She stared at Gu Meimen tightly, her frown still not relaxing.

Seeing the probing look on the girl's face, Gu Meimen couldn't help but curl her lips.

"Really, the most difficult thing to deal with is women."

He said this to himself.

Immediately, Gu Meimen didn't say anything, and said seriously: "Don't worry about my purpose, I have a question to ask you. Your mother seems to have not exerted her full strength in this lawsuit. As an opponent, can you tell me, Why is that?"

Seeing Gu Meimen's serious expression, Mao Lilan was stunned for a moment.

Based on her knowledge of this man, it was really rare for him to show such an expression.

Mao Lilan hesitated for a while, and then said: "Actually, after you negotiated with us and the people from Yueying Island last time, my mother was not prepared to fight this lawsuit."

"Oh? Why?" Gu Meimen raised an eyebrow and asked.

"Because of what you said to my mother last time in public."

Mao Lilan sighed.

"Before, she had actually realized that the client's purpose this time was not pure. Her principle as a lawyer was for truth and justice, and she should have refused the lawsuit directly. However, the reward for this lawsuit was very high. It’s almost 10 million. In order to resolve my father’s matter, she has no choice but to take the lawsuit forward.”

"However, she has been hesitating in her heart whether this lawsuit should really be fought."

"On the one hand, I told you last time that we have no evidence of a guaranteed victory."

"On the other hand, she was hesitating whether she should give up what she had been holding on to for the sake of my father."

"And your words at that time awakened my mother and made her realize that no matter what the situation, she should not give up the principles that she has always adhered to as a lawyer for more than ten years."

"However, the lawsuit has already been filed. If the contract is breached midway, there will be double liquidated damages. This is not what my mother can afford."

"So, she could only let the situation go as far as possible without showing her true strength, until she finally lost the lawsuit."
