Conan: The winner is justice

"The trial is over, now the verdict is announced!"

"First, the defendant Tatsuya Nagai has violated personal rights and needs to pay the plaintiff Miho Nishitani 30 million yen and make an apology statement."

“Second, the costs of this court session shall be borne entirely by the defendant.”

"The trial is over, leave the court!"

Nagai Tatsuya collapsed on the ground, his face ashen.

The judge did not convict him of premeditated murder and rape simply because the lawsuit was within the scope of civil litigation.

However, as a judicial preparatory candidate, he probably knew that his life was over.

Soon, Nagai Tatsuya will be taken away by the judicial police, and will then be transferred to the Metropolitan Police Department, and then the Procuratorate, where he will be prosecuted.

As the plaintiff, Miho Nishitani finally showed peace of mind and a peaceful smile at this moment.

"Mr. Lawyer, thank you very much!"

She held Gu Meimen's hand and expressed her sincere gratitude.

Gu Meimen waved his hand: "No matter where, it's all thanks to Miss Nishitani's cooperation that we won so smoothly."

Xiao Ai also nodded.

The second litigation fact is the evidence that the defendant pushed her down the stairs.

Logically speaking, this evidence would be difficult to capture. They told Nishitani Miho in advance and she immediately agreed to cooperate. That day, she deliberately stood on the stairs, waiting for the defendant to push her for the second time in order to obtain evidence.

Nishitani Miho thanked him profusely, said goodbye to Gu Meimen, and left happily.

"I have a question."

At this time, Xiao Ai also expressed his previous doubts.

"According to the conditions of this civil lawsuit, you don't actually need to commit perjury. You only need to use the photos I took to win. So, why do you have to take the risk of breaking the law and get a large amount of extra money? What about sending the other party to jail if you have evidence? This is not within the scope of what the client asked you to do this time, right?"

"Oh, you're talking about this."

Gu Meimen said so.

"Didn't I tell you many times before? A lawyer's duty is to safeguard the interests of his client."

"It's that simple?"

Xiao Ai raised her head and stared into Gu Meimen's eyes with her ice-blue eyes.

Gu Meimen smiled and met her eyes quietly.

"It's that simple."

"oh."

Xiao Ai retracted her gaze and looked at Nishitani Miho's leaving figure.

At this moment, Miss Nishitani is as cheerful as a sparrow.

She was so happy because she could feel completely relieved.

After resting her mind, the defendant will not come back to retaliate against her, and will not worry about any stalking or premeditated break-ins, because the other party will soon go to jail. After all, Gu Meimen has done so many things for her and paved all the way for the client.

Strictly speaking, this is the first time Gu Meimen has actually violated the law in a lawsuit.

…

After the lawsuit ended, in the next few days, the Metropolitan Police Department and the Prosecutor's Office applied for an arrest warrant for Nagai Tatsuya, and then carried out certain evidence collection work, including the physical evidence package mentioned in Gumeimen Court, as well as the His home was searched.

Among the tools in the evidence package, the forensics class obtained a large amount of his DNA.

In his home, the police also found many items prohibited under the 18-year-old ban.

Coupled with other physical evidence and witness testimony listed by Gu Meimen in the court before, a relatively complete logical chain was formed.

Soon after, the procuratorate prosecuted him and tried him in court. He was found guilty of premeditated murder and premeditated rape, which constituted criminal preparation. However, the circumstances were serious and he was sentenced to five years in prison.

Gumeimen Law Firm.

"This guy is really stupid."

After reading the news, Xiao Ai couldn't help but complain.

"You put so many inappropriate things in his house before, and there were so many things that were not yours for no reason, but he didn't even throw them away, and the police just searched them out."

"Otherwise, what do you think? A guy who can do a tail row, what else is left in his mind?"

Gu Meimen said casually.

"There are only two kinds of bad people in this world, one is very smart and bad, and the other is stupid and bad."

"That kind of smart and bad person, are you talking about yourself?" Xiao Ai narrowed his eyes.

"Oh, thanks for the compliment."

"Still as thick-skinned as ever."

"You don't have as much foundation on your face when you grow up."

"Bah, I never wear makeup."

"Are you trying to say that you are naturally beautiful? I think you are an old demon... pretend I didn't say it."

Seeing Xiao Ai showing her teeth and trying to bite him again, Gu Meimen wisely closed her mouth.

Checked the time.

"Okay, it's time for us to set off."

After that lawsuit, according to the verdict, Nagai Tatsuya must pay Nishitani Miho 30 million yen in compensation.

The money has already been obtained by Miss Nishitani.

It's been a bit busy over there these two days, and Gu Meimen needs to take the initiative to come to collect the entrustment fee he deserves.

Taking the train and following the address given by Miss Nishitani on the phone, Komemon came to Tokyo's Edogawa District, a busy commercial street.

After receiving the compensation, Miss Nishitani rented a shop here, opened a new pastry shop, and became her own boss.

"It turns out to be Mr. Lawyer, welcome!"

Miho Nishitani saw Komemon coming and happily waved hello to him.

Gu Meimen took a look around. The environment here is good, there are fresh cakes in the window, and some customers are visiting the store and browsing the products.

"Business is good."

"Of course, it's all thanks to Mr. Lawyer! I can open a store like this!"

Nishitani Miho showed a pure smile and took out a piece of cake for Gu Meimen and Xiao Ai to taste.

Gu Meimen took a bite. It was warm and smooth, and the workmanship was very good.

"It's delicious."

Xiao Ai, who has always been picky, rarely gave a good review.

"Well, my dream is to open a pastry shop! I have worked hard for this for a long time."

Nishitani Miho said happily.

"Now that my dream has finally come true, I'm so happy!"

"Well, I wish you a bright future."

Gu Meimen casually chatted with the client.

After receiving the commission fee, he did not stay any longer and left the store with Xiao Ai, preparing to return to the office.

On the way, Xiao Ai thought of the whole incident and couldn't help but sigh.

"The ending is quite good. Miss Nishitani can realize her dream, and the man following the story is also arrested and sent to prison."

Gu Meimen turned to look at her with a meaningful expression.

"It's indeed pretty good...if Miss Nishitani hadn't planned it in advance."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Ai couldn't help but frown.

"What's the meaning?"

"I found on the Internet that Ms. Nishitani once complained on her blog that she wanted to open a pastry shop but had no funds."

"So? What you mean is..."

Xiao Ai frowned even more tightly and her expression darkened.

"Didn't you notice? When this woman first came to the office."

Gu Meimen said slowly, little by little.

"First, when I signed the contract with her, she showed shock and discomfort at the high commission fee I gave. This was very strange. If it was just to warn perverts, money should not be her focus. "

"Second, when I asked for information about Nagai Tatsuya, she answered almost fluently, and it was obvious that she knew everything about him."

"Thirdly, when I asked her to cooperate in a scene where Tatsuya Nagai pushes him down the stairs, she easily agreed."

"Fourth, she often wears revealing clothes, which attracts men's attention."

"..."

"..."

Xiao Ai fell completely silent.

Although the content of Gu Meimen's words was plain, it was like a basin of cold water, giving people a deep chill.

After a long time, Xiao Ai spoke with difficulty.

"You mean, all of this was actually planned by Nishitani Miho?"

"Oh, I didn't say that. After all, I have no evidence."

Gu Meimen showed a very classic smile.

"So, the following are just my personal guesses, and there is no absolute truth."

"In order to obtain funds to open a pastry shop, Miho Nishitani made a plan to deliberately wear revealing clothes and walk around the streets when commuting every day. The purpose was to attract perverts to harass him, so that he could be harassed later. Sue and get compensation.”

"Soon, a pervert caught her attention and followed her. This pervert was Tatsuya Nagai."

"However, Nagai Tatsuya's madness exceeded her imagination, and he even pushed her down the stairs at the station. She was afraid of being killed, so she went to call the police, but due to the short time, not enough evidence was collected."

"In desperation, she could only plan in advance and find me, a popular lawyer, to litigate, because the media's reports on me said that I showed great ability and might have a chance of winning the case."

"What happens next is what we see until this case is won."

"..."

"..."

"So that's how it is, it's actually like this."

After listening to Gu Meimen's words, Xiao Ai murmured to himself.

She turned back stiffly and looked at the smiling and busy figure of Miho Nishitani on the other side of the shopping street.

The figure looked so harmless, so innocent.

Gu Meimen smiled and touched her head.

"Didn't I tell you before? There are no absolutely kind people in this world. Even the docile sheep have teeth. The prey you see may be the hunter in disguise."

Xiao Ai remained silent.

Gu Meimen did say this.

She didn't expect that this would actually turn out to be a prophecy and that things would turn out like this.

"But……"

Xiao Ai moved her mouth, as if she wanted to say something else.

"Nothing to worry about."

Gu Meimen shrugged and said so.

"The prisoner was sent to prison, and she also received compensation that can be used to open a shop, so she can realize her dream. Everyone is happy."

"It doesn't matter what the outcome of the matter is. This is the profession of lawyers. They never care about the truth."

"There is no law and no truth."

Gu Meimen's eyes were calm, her tone was calm, and her pupils shone with insight into people's hearts.

Readers have been complaining about the reversal without Li Gouhei. I want to write the reversal in the third case.

But it’s impossible for me to spoil it, so I can only remain silent.

This reversal has two conceits, because the original work does not state that it was premeditated by Miho Nishitani, and this is a second creation that I completed through a series of foreshadowings.

Let’s talk about the so-called reversal here.

First of all, everyone needs to know that the way of expression in TV series is completely different from that in novels.

TV dramas will use various storyboards to show details, but novels cannot be written in this way. As long as online articles have storyboards, it will easily give people the impression of being superficial.

How do you generally write reversals in novels?

It is necessary to give people the illusion of "lack of logic" at the beginning, and then suddenly announce the truth at the end, completing the seemingly missing logic that is not actually missing, so as to give people a sense of surprise that "that's what it is."

Li Gouhei's kind of reversal cannot be used in novels. The two methods of expression are completely different.

So I also hope that no readers will always complain that my writing is not as good as the TV series.

The two are completely different. I am mainly a fan of Conan. I write the book seriously, and I also have the author's thoughts.

Thank you again for your support and add another chapter.
