Conan: The winner is justice

Chapter 87 If there are no miracles, you really don’t have any friends.

time flies.

Unknowingly, it was the day of the public trial of the Piano Sonata murder case.

During this period, about a month and a half passed.

This was because the suspect Aso had deep burns on large areas of her body. In order to allow her to appear in court smoothly, the trial was postponed until she recovered and was able to walk.

Of course, given the chaos of this world's timeline, it is unknown how long such a long period of time actually passed.

The public hearing is at 1:30 p.m.

At noon, Gu Meimen prepared the required materials early, dressed up and went to the corresponding Tokyo District Court.

After taking a few trams and walking for a while, we arrived at the entrance of the court.

Entering the hall, there were as expected a bunch of reporters inside.

"Lawyer Gu Meimen, I heard that you are going to face Prosecutor Kujo again this time. What do you think about this?"

"Are you insisting that the suspect is innocent this time or is he guilty?"

"Are you still sure of winning this time?"

Gu Meimen has no time to talk nonsense with reporters.

His eyes turned to the people sitting in the hall, holding various signs and banners.

These are the villagers of Yueying Island.

"Mr. Lawyer, we are here as you ordered."

The leader was the old villager from before.

He was holding a sign with the words "Honest Doctors Not Guilty" written on it.

The things the other villagers were holding were, without exception, similar to his, and they were all good words of support for Aso.

Gu Meimen nodded: "Very good, have you all received the hearing?"

"got it!"

"If the judge makes a random decision, we will make a fuss!"

"Yes, how can an honest doctor be found guilty!"

The villagers were excited.

Gu Meimen immediately shook his head and told them not to be impulsive.

If you do this, not only will it not achieve the desired effect, but it will deepen the judge's negative impression of the defendant.

"You just need to stay in the gallery, hold something in your hand, and sit quietly."

"Okay, everything will follow the lawyer's instructions!"

To appease the mood of the villagers, Gumeimen did not stop.

He turned around and walked towards the court toilet.

What to do?

Of course, just like last time, I went to see my old friends who deserved this lawsuit.

However, apparently this old friend is a little smarter this time.

"Are you planning to go to the wrong toilet again?"

A mature woman leaned against the door of the bathroom and mocked Gu Meimen.

That's right, she is the one who plays opposite Gu Meimen today.

The Madonna of prosecutors, Reiko Kujo.

Gu Meimen looked her up and down for a while.

Today's Kujo Reiko seems a little different from the past.

What is more obvious is her hairstyle. She used to have shawl hair, but now she has a Mori girl hair ornament. The hair on both sides is braided and coiled on both sides of the head, forming a centipede braid. Use a curling iron to make it look a little fluffy, fix the excess hair with a U-shaped plug, and roll it up with a rubber band.

There were also traces of makeup on her face, including eye shadow and powder.

It looks like she has both the charm of a mature woman and the beauty of a young girl.

Gu Meimen couldn't help but said: "I am an old aunt in her thirties or forties. She always wants to look young."

"Can you please stop saying the word "old aunt" all the time."

Kujo Reiko shook her head, not bothering to pay attention to Gu Meimon's words.

She took out a pack of women's cigarettes, the very thin ones, lit one, and puffed away.

"I went on a blind date today," she said as she smoked. "The other person is the son of a company president, and his uncle is a member of the House of Representatives."

"That's great. Congratulations, you finally have someone."

"When will you be serious?"

Kujo Reiko frowned slightly and looked at him, "Do you understand? I'm getting married."

"Hey, you can just get married. What does it have to do with me?"

Gu Meimen took a step back and said, "You said it in this tone, as if I have something to do with you."

"..."

Kujo Reiko moved her mouth, and finally sighed.

"Forget it, I can't explain this to you clearly. I may have found the wrong person."

There was a pause.

She changed the subject: "What do you say about this lawsuit?"

"Whatever you say, of course I still have my original opinion."

As Komemon spoke, he looked at Kujo Reiko and clicked his tongue.

"Originally, I planned to try to mess with your mentality before filing a lawsuit, but now it seems that you have learned to be smart."

"Is it really okay for you to say this kind of thing in front of me?"

Reiko Kujo was speechless.

After a pause, she thought about it and said.

"Actually, I also think that the suspect may be innocent."

"Um?"

What Kujo Reiko said was shocking.

Gu Meimen couldn't help but raise her eyebrows: "How do you say that?"

"I went to the hospital to see the suspect." Kujo Reiko said, "The tone of her words was indeed the tone of relief that a great revenge had been avenged. However, in contrast, she also had a sense of hope for survival. The desire is inside, and I think that if she was really the murderer, she would not have such a defensive mentality."

"Really? Listen to what you said, when did the prosecutor profession start to rely on intuition and subjectivity to decide cases?" Gu Meimen said.

"Sometimes, intuition is also very important."

Kujo Reiko shook her head.

"If the superiors hadn't forced me to take this case, I wouldn't have come at all. Of course, I wouldn't have seen your hateful face."

"That's really an honor." Gu Meimen shrugged.

"Anyway, now that I have accepted this case, I will still take it seriously."

Kujo Reiko glanced at Gu Meimen, and the body she was leaning on left the wall and walked towards the corridor outside the bathroom.

"Gu Meimen, I look forward to your performance."

After leaving these words, she left the area.

After Kujo Reiko's figure completely disappeared, Xiao Ai turned her head aside.

"I feel that Kujo Reiko actually likes you quite a bit."

"Don't tell me, she likes me."

Gu Meimen made an expression as if she was about to vomit, "It's disgusting what you said, please think about it next time."

"No, I mean that kind of psychological recognition. After all, you are her proud disciple, and you are also the only one among so many people who has defeated her except Fei Yingli."

"Yeah?"

Gu Meimen couldn't help but think back.

He just saw that Kujo Reiko's favorability was indeed not high, but her approval was indeed much higher than that of ordinary people.

"Look, she even told you about the blind date."

Xiao Ai thought for a while and said.

"I guess the purpose of what she said to you was to find someone to talk to. Although you are usually very annoying, the first thing she thought of was you... I even suspected that she might have stood here on purpose. Waiting for you to come."

"Oh, listening to what you said, the situation just now was quite similar."

Gu Meimen smiled softly.

"So, what does that have to do with me? She talks to me and I have to stand and listen to her crap?"

Xiao Ai looked at his natural expression and couldn't help but shook her head.

"You are really... the kind of person who would not have any friends if there were no miracles."

"If a person needs to be recognized by others to live, then this person is too sad, because there will never be true recognition in this world."

Gu Meimen said so.

"Okay, it's almost time, we should go to the execution ground."

"... When you go to court, go to court. Don't always go to the execution ground. It sounds awkward and makes you feel like you are going to be punished."

"The court is the court of justice for lawyers. Is there anything wrong with that?"

"You have a point, okay?"

Thanks for the monthly votes and recommendation votes.
