Conan: The winner is justice

Chapter 7 Planning and Interviewing Witnesses

Gu Meimen's sarcastic words were like a soul questioning.

Conan opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but his mouth felt like it was filled with lead and he couldn't open his mouth.

Because...this guy is right.

Sometimes he does use his identity as a child to investigate crime scenes and people involved in the case.

And many of these methods are on the verge of being illegal upon closer inspection.

"We didn't mean any harm!"

Ayumi Yoshida opened her arms to protect Conan and looked at Gu Meimen angrily.

"Our young detective team has solved many cases so far. The previous department store robbery case, the Italian gangster group, and the drug possession case in the library are all due to the contribution of our young detective team!"

"Yes, we do good things all the time!"

"We are always helping people in need without asking for anything in return!"

The other two children, Tsuburaya Mitsuhiko and Kojima Genta, also echoed, glaring at Komemon angrily and protesting strongly.

"Oh? You are always doing good things..."

Looking at these stubborn-looking children in front of him, Gu Meimen smiled.

In this courtyard full of birdsong and the fragrance of flowers, he spread his legs slightly, stretched out the index finger of his right hand, and pointed heavily in the direction of his feet.

"So, please tell me, where are you standing now? Huh?!"

The sound echoed in the small courtyard, causing birds to fly up.

His tone was very serious, especially the words "where", which startled several children.

The children lowered their heads and stared blankly at the ground beneath their feet.

Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya was the first to react and said quickly: "We just followed those adults in..."

"Misuhiko, stop talking!"

Conan interrupted his companion with a serious expression.

"let's go."

He shook his head, took a deep look at Gu Meimen, then turned around and walked out of the courtyard gate.

The three children next to him looked at each other and quickly followed his pace.

"Conan, why are you leaving?"

"That's right, we didn't do anything wrong!"

"Don't you understand? We just stepped into someone else's private property without permission, and we also mocked and insulted the owner of the land. No matter what behavior he had done before, we are still Violates the legitimate rights and interests of others..."

The voices of the children faded away.

In the distance, Conan turned back and glanced at Gu Meimen on the other side of the house again, as if he wanted to keep his figure and appearance firmly in his mind.

Gu Meimen shrugged, took out the key, locked the door of the house inside, locked the door of the courtyard, and left.

Conan's favorability has completely dropped to the lowest point in the confrontation just now.

The approval value has also reached a negative number, and the progress bar is even lower than the favorability level.

This represents the relationship between him and the core of the protagonist group. Unless something big happens, there will be no room for relaxation.

But no problem.

Gu Meimen thinks that she is not on the same side as Conan and others.

There is no need to have a good relationship with them. As I said before, the closer you get, the trouble of red and black collision will happen.

After walking out of the house, Gu Meimen looked at his watch.

It was almost five o'clock, just in time to catch up with the appointment with witness Sugita Sanae.

He turned his head and glanced inside the house, where the German shepherd dog was still lying on the ground, wagging its tail at him.

Just now, he thought of a brilliant plan.

Enough to make this lawsuit have no chance of failure.

Mikkacho Station, Boston Italian Restaurant.

This is an elegantly decorated and comfortable restaurant, with chandeliers overhead hanging in warm tones, and walnut wooden tables and chairs exuding antique luster and neatly arranged.

Of course, consumption here is not low either.

A plate of pasta costs less than a thousand yen outside, and the price here is nearly twice that.

"You're welcome, order whatever you want, I'll treat you to this meal."

Gu Meimen waved his hand coolly - he didn't have to pay for the meal anyway.

"Really? Then I'm not welcome!"

The girl sitting opposite him suddenly became energetic, picked up the menu given by the waiter, quickly ordered several expensive dishes, and opened a bottle of champagne.

"Just order whatever you want. If you can't finish it, you can take it away."

Gu Meimen looked at the girl with a smile.

Her pretty face, off-the-shoulder dress, miniskirt with visible underwear, manicure, necklace, pearl earrings, every part of her body exudes materiality.

Such girls, if they throw a wad of banknotes on the street, they will be surrounded like ants.

"Mr. Gu Meimen, are all lawyers like you so handsome and rich?"

While waiting for the dishes to be served, Sanae Sugita gave Komemon a flirtatious look, her eyes filled with awe.

Gu Meimen pretended not to notice, picked up the champagne in the glass and took a sip.

"Ms. Sugita, let's talk about business first."

"Oh fine."

Sanae Sugita curled her lips in disappointment.

Maehara Gang was dead. Of course she wanted to find a new home, but it was a pity that the man in front of her didn't take the bait.

Komemon didn't waste any time, took out an envelope from her bag and threw it in front of Sugita Sanae.

Sanae Sugita hurriedly took the envelope and opened it, her eyes suddenly bursting with surprise.

Inside were five full ten-thousand-dollar bills.

"This is the agreed labor fee. I added an additional 30,000 yuan to you."

Gu Meimen leaned his head on the chair and said easily.

When Sanae Sugita took the money, he clearly saw that the favorability level above the girl's head soared from one to three.

"No problem, I know what you mean, Mr. Lawyer!"

Sanae Sugita patted her chest.

"When the trial goes on in court, I will do what you ask for!"

So, what can favorability be used for?

Of course, it is in the aspect of contacting and handing over witnesses in the lawsuit.

When the lawsuit is unfavorable to one side, witnesses will definitely not stand by you for no reason.

Unless certain means are used.

Sanae Sugita is easy to deal with. Komemon is a lawyer who is good at perceiving people's hearts and can see her true nature at a glance.

Human beings are always emotional, and there is no absolute rationality. As long as your favorability reaches a certain level, witnesses will be on your side. Gu Meimen has verified this many times in the past when he was an intern at the Judicial Training Institute. this point.

There are no witnesses that cannot be won over, only bargaining chips that do not meet expectations.

Of course, Gu Meimen is still very cautious in doing things.

"My request? What request?" Gu Meimen raised the corner of her mouth slightly, "Ms. Sugita, I came to you to understand the situation of the case at that time. Please don't make a mistake. I just came to see you this time. It’s just my labor fee.”

"Oh, that's it, it's okay."

Sanae Sugita gave Komemon a wink.

Gu Meimen turned a blind eye.

"Now, tell me everything you saw at the time of the crime in detail. Don't miss every detail!"

I will start two updates today to see if I can sign a contract.

Thank you all for your recommendation votes!
