Conan: The winner is justice

The two of them were talking to each other as they walked.

Although there were frequent criminal incidents along the way, there were no surprises.

At half past eight, half an hour before the trial, I arrived at the Tokyo High Court on time.

Walking into the lobby, there were quite a lot of people inside.

The second trial was much more popular than the first trial. Countless reporters were on standby. Many of them had interviewed Gu Meimen during the lawsuit. When they saw him walking in, they immediately swarmed over like bees.

Gu Meimen is still the classic line.

"My client is absolutely innocent, this is an unjust case!"

His words are righteous and his expressions are unfailing.

"Lawyer Gu Meimen won his first lawsuit with an overwhelming advantage. What kind of results can he achieve in today's battle?"

"Show your sharpness, and you will be at your peak when you debut!"

"The up-and-coming lawyer battles the popular beauty prosecutor, wait and see!"

The reporters all had excited expressions and quickly took photos of him, hurriedly looked at the camera and made up the headlines and content of tomorrow's news.

The reporters' offensive was annoying, and even Gu Meimen couldn't stand it. He squeezed through the crowd and reached the women's restroom in two or three steps, where he planned to stay until the court session.

"For blatantly breaking into the women's restroom, I can arrest and charge you with sexual harassment."

A cold voice came from the side.

Turning around, he saw his old acquaintance Reiko Kujo standing by the sink, looking at him with an unhappy look on her face.

Japanese women are very concerned about their makeup and have the habit of touching up their makeup frequently.

Gu Meimen saw her holding a box of foundation in her hand and applying powder to her face.

"No matter how much makeup you put on, the old aunt will never look younger."

"Very good, plus one more crime of insult."

Kujo Reiko took out a pair of rose gold handcuffs from her pocket and was about to handcuff Gu Meimen.

Gu Meimen turned sideways and showed his signature smile.

"You can torture me, but you have no evidence to accuse me, because I didn't subjectively want to enter here, I just went to the wrong toilet. In addition, I am the lawyer in this lawsuit, and I can sue for interference with the judicial process."

"Oh, my brain is just as flexible."

Kujo Reiko put away the handcuffs and shook her head.

"If only you could use your brain for serious stuff."

After a pause, Kujo Reiko glanced at Xiao Ai beside Gu Meimen.

"You hired child labor?" She looked angry.

"What child labor, my sister." Gu Meimen patted Xiao Ai on the head, "Come on, Xiao Ai, call Aunt Kujo."

Xiao Ai seemed to bend down obediently: "Hello, Aunt Kutiao, I often hear my brother talking about you."

"..."

Kujo Reiko took a deep breath.

The words "brother and aunt" directly added her to the next generation.

She tried her best to smile: "Be good, little sister, my sister is less than 30 years old this year."

Xiao Ai showed an innocent smile: "Auntie is so young! You and my 33-year-old aunt look alike!"

"..."

These bastard siblings!

Kujo Reiko gave Komemon a sharp look.

She was originally full of confidence today, but now all her good mood was ruined.

"Be careful later!"

After that, she angrily left the women's room without looking back.

"Yes, he is worthy of being a child star and movie star, but he could be more aggressive."

Gu Meimen gave Xiao Ai a thumbs up.

Xiao Ai's face returned to calmness: "Is this really okay?"

"Of course, women are the most susceptible creatures to be dominated by emotions, especially on certain days, this situation will be more obvious."

Gu Meimen had a smile on her face from beginning to end.

It turns out that the confrontation just now was actually deliberately arranged by Gu Meimen.

When avoiding reporters, he did not enter the men's room because he suspected that Reiko Kujo might be here.

A long time ago, Gu Meimen investigated Kujo Reiko and knew some relatively private information about her.

For example, based on the date, today should be exactly the time when her menstrual period ends.

Still thinking about filing a lawsuit on a day like this shows the normal character of this woman Kujo.

As an opponent, Gu Meimen must certainly make good use of it.

Kujo Reiko must be in a very bad mood now, and as expected, it will definitely affect the subsequent judgment in the court.

"You are really a despicable, shameless, filthy bastard, a dirty guy who even takes advantage of a woman's weakness."

Xiao Ai looked expressionless, looking at Gu Meimen with a smile on his face, without hesitation, and his evaluation of him went up to another level.

"The legal field is like a battlefield, there is no distinction between men and women."

Gu Meimen didn't argue with her either.

After checking the time and staying in the toilet cubicle for a while, Gu Meimen left the women's toilet and headed to the referee's room.

The referee room of the high-level tribunal is much larger than that of the local tribunal.

There are dozens of rows of seats in the auditorium alone, with obvious seating steps, just like a university lecture theater.

Not long after, the judge, jurors, plaintiff and defendant came one by one.

The lineup of the second trial is much larger than that of the first trial. There are 3 judges and 6 jurors, and the corresponding seats are also wider.

Strictly speaking, Japanese judges, called "judges" in Japanese, have a total of 8 levels.

The level of the High Inquisition must be at least medium or above.

"Now the second trial begins!"

With the knocking of the judge's hammer, the trial begins.

According to the procedure, the prosecutor will read the indictment first.

"...The defendant called the victim to the billiards room of the hot spring hotel and killed him with the gun he picked up. This behavior violated Article 199 of the Japanese Criminal Code and was a crime of intentional homicide. In addition, the defendant possessed illegally controlled firearms, which violated Japan's "Knife and Firearms Control Law" stipulates that it is a felony to choose one of two crimes. This court will prosecute this case and ask the court to sentence him to the crime of intentional homicide in accordance with the law."

Kujo Reiko held the indictment in her hand and read it quickly without pausing.

Several judges on the stage couldn't help but frown.

Generally speaking, the requirement for prosecutors to read out the indictment is that the words must be clear and sonorous, not at the speed of chasing a duck.

Judging from her expression, she seemed to be a little impatient.

"Lord Kujo..."

Sitting next to her, Tatsusu Masami, her assistant, quietly pulled Kujo Reiko's arm.

Only then did Kujo Reiko realize that she had lost her temper unknowingly because the bathroom had been affected by the Gu Meimen brothers and sisters just now.

Her face turned slightly red and she coughed quickly.

"Sorry, I'm rude."

“Please ask the prosecutor to re-read the indictment!”

The middle of the three judges banged the hammer.

He is in his fifties and has the highest rank among the three judges, so he sits in the middle and is the one who knocks the gavel.

There was a burst of laughter from the auditorium in the audience.

Reiko Kujo calmed down and finished reading the indictment at a normal speaking speed.

When she sat down, she looked across the way and saw Gu Meimen's hateful expression at the other side's lawyer's table, half-smiling but not smiling.

The other party even smiled and made the gesture of picking up a cup and drinking hot water.

Kujo Reiko didn't understand what the other party meant, she clenched her teeth in anger, her head almost felt hot, and she secretly cursed in her heart.

Damn bastard, Gu Meimen, I will make you look good later!

Thanks to "Eternal II" for the 500 starting coin reward!
