Great Swordsman Ke Xue
Chapter 425 Actions under and behind the table
"But speaking of the most popular female lawyer now, you have to be Ms. Usui, who committed that sensational case in the second instance and finally sent it to the Supreme Court for ruling."
Everyone sat together at the table, and the topic naturally fell on a few lawyers. Kenzo Shiozawa, a middle-aged fat uncle, and Kogoro Mori got along very well with each other, but while they were talking, he suddenly changed his voice and looked towards Ritsuko Usui took the initiative to sit next to Kogoro Mouri.
Ritsuko Usui's expression was indifferent, as if he was not aware of the curious glances from everyone. He just chuckled lightly and said, "Anyone can actually win that lawsuit."
"Well, I'm really sorry. That case should have been won during the first trial, but it ended in defeat because of the reasons that were left to me."
After joining in, Mikasa Yuji, who had been silent until now, scratched his head with a smile and interjected.
The atmosphere suddenly became awkward, and Ritsuko Usui couldn't help but paused for a moment, and quickly said: "Well, I didn't mean that."
"It's okay, it's okay." Mikasa Yuji seemed to be easy to talk to.
Ritsuko Usui's eyes changed, and she suddenly looked at Fei Yingli, "Speaking of which, even if I won the lawsuit, I'm still far behind us, the queen of the legal profession."
It was an obvious change of topic, a bit unexpected, but also reasonable.
Fei Eri also knew that Ritsuko Usui just didn't want to make the atmosphere awkward, but she was called queen in public, especially next to Koji Shimizu. She couldn't help but blush, and slightly rolled her eyes at Ritsuko Usui, but All he got in exchange was a smile from Ritsuko Usui.
From the looks of it, the relationship between the two seems to be pretty good.
"Okay, okay, let's not talk about this anymore. We are all on vacation, so don't talk about cases or anything~"
Saku Hoshi, who was the first to say hello, also came out to smooth things over. Everyone nodded after hearing this and started using their chopsticks again.
And Koji Shimizu would naturally not highlight himself at such a dinner and cause any trouble for himself.
Especially looking at this situation, there should be no need for him to do anything else. Although the beautiful female lawyer Usui Ritsuko's actions were very subtle, she still could not escape the eyes of Shimizu Koji.
Just now, Shimizu Koji clearly saw her arm moving slightly, and to the right of Usui Ritsuko was Mouri Kogoro. The other male lawyers sharing the table were basically sitting on the extra tables and chairs. Combined with the way Mouri Kogoro suddenly straightened his back and widened his eyes just now.
It is almost not difficult to guess that Ritsuko Usui seems to be teasing Mouri Kogoro secretly.
Although Koji Shimizu didn't know what the strange attraction of the uncle Mouri Kogoro was, it seemed to be a good thing for him, Moori Kogoro, and Fei Eri.
So he pretended not to see anything, just silently picked up the beer bottle and helped everyone, mainly Mouri Kogoro, get another full glass.
But Sakubo changed the topic, and the dinner table suddenly became quiet again. Ran and Conan, opposite Koji Shimizu, were basically invisible and bystanders at this moment. After all, this had become a dinner party among the elders. , naturally they had little chance to interrupt.
Only Kenzo Shiozawa looked left and right, smiled unwillingly, and broke the brief silence by saying, "Speaking of which, although you two are separated, you are still quite enviable."
Although this person was not named, almost everyone present knew that Xiaolan seemed to have been pressed on some button. She sat upright with bright eyes, looking like she was always ready.
Only Fei Eri and Mouri Kogoro's expressions froze at the same time, but neither of them directly denied anything. Kenzo Shiozawa also continued to laugh while eating: "Look, Lawyer Fei is the undefeated queen of the legal world. And Detective Maori is a famous detective who never solves any case, so he is a perfect match!"
The adult world is full of lies and flattery. Even outsiders like Shimizu Koji and Conan can smell some flattery, let alone other people.
But even so, all the lawyers and Xiaolan nodded, showing approval.
However, Mouri Kogoro felt the itching in the palm of his hand and couldn't help but squeeze it hard. Then he sighed and said seriously: "What the hell, what are you talking about? In fact, marrying such an arrogant and powerful queen of the legal world as your wife will not be good." It makes me look very insignificant."
Although Mouri Kogoro's words had some ulterior motives at the moment, as he was telling his troubles and innocence to Usui Ritsuko who was teasing him, he was also quite sincere in it.
Because before Conan came, in Japan, which values dignity and face very much, when he was mentioned, he was often said - "Oh, it turns out that he is the husband of the queen of the court."
There are many situations like this, which is also the main reason why Mouri Kogoro becomes more and more addicted to those izakayas and custom shops. After all, only the women in those places can satisfy his spiritual needs obediently.
Fei Yingli did not deny this, but replied coldly: "Yes, I just don't have the eyesight to pick out someone who picks out the faults of others every day, but has no requirements for myself. I am strict with others and lenient." Having a famous detective who is self-disciplined and shows no restraint on women and alcoholism as my life partner is really a smart thing for a lifetime, but a stupid one for a while."
"Hehehe."
"Hehehe."
Eri Kisaki and Kogoro Mori laughed at the same time, but such laughter made several people at the same table shudder.
There was a hint of surprise in Ritsuko Usui's eyes, but it turned into her offensive against Kogoro Mori.
"Okay, okay, let's not talk about these unpleasant things today. Lawyer Kisaki and Detective Mori rarely come together to play. Let's forget about the past and have a good drink."
"Yes, yes."
Ritsuko Usui suggested, which attracted Kenzo Shiozawa's repeated agreement.
Seeing this, Hoshi Saku and Yuji Mikasa also stood up and poured wine for everyone. Of course, Koji Shimizu, Ran and Conan were exceptions.
And Eri Kisaki had no objection to this, and then she picked up the beer in front of her and took a sip.
But suddenly, she froze, and looked at Koji Shimizu beside her with a little surprise.
And Shimizu Koji simply placed his hand gently on her waist, and when he saw Kisaki Eri looking at him, he just gave her an imperceptible warm smile. With his gentle movements and pure eyes without any distractions, he soothed Kisaki Eri's inner unhappiness.
