Conan: The winner is justice

The final outcome of the trial goes without saying.

The judge communicated with the jurors and immediately pronounced the verdict: Due to insufficient evidence, the defendant was acquitted. The procuratorate will then prosecute him for the crime of insulting a corpse.

As for the so-called truth said by Gu Meimen, whether it is true or false, whether it is reasonable or not, is actually not important.

There is no truth in the court, only whether there is evidence and whether a conviction can be made.

"You bastard lawyer!"

As soon as the judge announced that the trial was over and everyone was leaving, Mouri Kogoro rushed over and grabbed Komemon's collar.

"Hezhi, Hezhi killed someone! How can you defend a murderer! How can you let him be acquitted!"

Mouri Kogoro seemed to lose control and shouted at Komemon.

"Mr. Mori, this suit is very expensive. If it gets damaged, I will send you a bill!"

Facing the opponent's roar, Gu Meimen was not afraid at all and remained calm, even with a provocative smile on his face.

"伱, you..."

Seeing Komemon's expression, Mouri Kogoro was so angry that he was so angry that he used a little force on his hands to give the opponent a cradle of hell with Judo.

But at this time, a clear shout came from the side.

"Hurry up and stop it!"

Turning around, I saw a woman about the same age as Kujo Reiko, standing hurriedly behind, shouting at Mouri.

The woman has a beautiful appearance and long brown hair, which is tied into a round bun at the back. She is wearing a light cyan lawyer uniform with a lawyer badge on her chest, and her temperament is full of intellectuality.

Fei Yingri, the first female lawyer known as the undefeated queen of the Japanese legal profession.

She is also the wife of Kogoro Mori who has been in the branch for a long time.

"But Yingli, this guy..."

Hearing his wife's voice, Mouri Kogoro looked a little hesitant.

Fei Yingli glared at him: "You idiot! If you don't let go, he will sue you for provoking trouble! There are surveillance cameras in the court, and there are so many witnesses. When the time comes, he will make you walk around with nothing to eat!"

"Uh, oh..."

Mouri Kogoro was shocked and quickly let go of his hand.

"Hey, it's a pity. It's just one step away. If you call me, you can demand compensation."

Gu Meimen raised her eyebrows and actually shook her head, as if she still felt sorry.

This look and tone almost made Mouri Kogoro angry to death. He gritted his teeth, but he could do nothing to him.

"This must be the famous lawyer Fei Yingli, right?"

Gu Meimen straightened her clothes and looked at the intellectual woman in front of her with a smile.

"That's right, it's me." Fei Yingli said expressionlessly, "I heard that a new lawyer has recently emerged in the legal field. I'm a little interested in him, so I come here to see him occasionally."

"What? It turns out I'm not here for dad..."

Next to Fei Yingli stood an accompanying Mao Lilan, muttering in a low voice.

"Who would come here specifically for such a playboy man!"

Fei Yingli said loudly, her eyes wandering, "I'm just suddenly interested..."

"Me, me too, who would care about a woman like you..."

"Hey, hey, hey, I'm very busy. Can you two, please stop acting like a cliched youth love comedy here?"

Before Mouri Kogoro finished speaking, he was interrupted by the sharp words of Komemon next to him.

Gu Meimen sighed: "If there's nothing wrong, please get out of the way and don't block the road here, okay?"

The two looked at each other, and Fei Yingli coughed, her expression serious.

"Lawyer Gu Meimen, although I don't want to say anything to you, the purpose of the law is to give criminals due punishment within the scope of the truth! You ignored the truth and defended the real murderer. This behavior is against the law Professional ethics!”

"Well, well said, with great temperament!"

After listening, Gu Meimen immediately gave a thumbs up and clapped with an exaggerated expression.

"She deserves to be the number one female lawyer in Japan. It really opened my eyes and enlightened me! I admire you!"

"..."

Gu Meimen's tone of voice made Fei Yingli frown slightly.

Although it seemed to be a compliment, it was almost sarcastic, and there was no hint of "admiration" at all.

To be honest, Fei Yingli has been in the legal world for many years, and her most annoying opponents are people like Gu Meimen. This kind of oblique and insulting person is also the most difficult to deal with.

Sure enough, the next moment, Gu Meimen's conversation changed.

"Excuse me, Lawyer Fei, does your so-called professional ethics mean that the moment you learned the facts of the case, you abandoned your client who once trusted you and turned to the prosecutor's arms?"

Gu Meimen smiled and showed an expression of admiration.

"Ah, if so, then starting from today, I will start to learn from you how to backstab correctly! Maintain the professional ethics of our lawyers!"

"..."

Fei Yingli's face looked ugly, and her brows furrowed more and more tightly.

She could tell that Gu Meimen was mocking the lawsuit she fought a few days ago.

The real murderer in that lawsuit was actually the client. She only found out later. At that time, she joined forces with the prosecutor, and both parties worked together to induce the client to self-destruct through Maori's reasoning in court (see the animation "Court Showdown 3 Prosecutor" Officials are witnesses”).

Fei Yingli took a deep breath: "I don't understand what you are talking about! But lawyers must adhere to facts as the basis, the law as the criterion, practice strictly in accordance with the law, and abide by social ethics! This is the professional ethics of lawyers!"

"That's right! At least, the real criminal cannot be allowed to escape justice!"

Mouri Kogoro said from the side.

He looked solemn and glanced at Kazushi Nakamichi, who had been acquitted and had not yet left in the dock.

The two looked at each other. Nakamichi Kazushi lowered his head.

After that, he had told Kogoro several times that he was not the culprit.

However, Kogoro always didn't believe it.

Although he did not commit murder, this defense method made him innocent, and he always felt that he could not hold his head high.

"You are not guilty, Mr. Nakamichi. Please raise your head upright."

Gu Meimen's voice came from the side.

He gave the couple in front of him a contemptuous look.

"Let the real criminal go free? Why are you so sure? Are you just relying on your trivial and self-righteous reasoning?"

"What did you say!"

Mouri Kogoro clenched his fists and was about to charge forward again.

"Your behavior of defending criminals and letting them escape is no different from that of a murderer!"

"No, no, no, please make it clear. No matter what the truth is, I have always been defending legitimately."

Komemon took a step back and avoided Mouri Kogoro's fist.

Immediately, he approached Mouri Kogoro with a smile and whispered in a voice that only the couple could hear.

"Regardless of whether the prisoner committed a crime or not, in this lawsuit, the murderer who really made the suspect run away was not you? Dear detective, Mr. Mouri Kogoro."

"..."

"..."

Gu Meimen's words are always like a needle, piercing people's weaknesses so easily.

Mouri Kogoro was immediately speechless.

Fei Yingli on the side was also silent.

Indeed, Gu Meimen did not use any improper means. In this lawsuit, he has been using legal concepts to defend himself properly.

Originally, the suspect would not be acquitted so easily, because at least there was a pistol as evidence. Even if the evidence was still weak, the lawsuit could be postponed for a while, during which time the investigation could be conducted.

However, after Maori and Conan discovered the body, they did not seal off the scene and wait for the police to come to enforce the law. Instead, they operated on the body in various ways, which completely destroyed the integrity of the scene.

By the time the police came to collect evidence, the evidence that should have been gone was long gone.

The opposing lawyer didn't need to do anything at all, he just did what he normally does, that's all.

"Is everything my fault?"

Mouri Kogoro looked dazed and couldn't help mumbling to himself.
