Conan's Victory is Justice

Chapter 19

"Lawyer Gu Meimen, right? Are you here to entrust my father with something?"

Mao Lilan quickly came back to her senses, remembering what happened on the subway last time about giving up her seat, she felt angry for a while.

That thing impressed her so much, she had never met such a nasty guy.

"Go away, we don't welcome you here!"

As she spoke, she was about to push Gu Meimen out of the store.

Gu Meimen was not polite, and directly slapped Mao Lilan's hand away with a snap.

"Little girl, don't get me wrong, I'm here to eat, this kind of place looks like a third-rate detective agency, who would come to ask you to do business!"

"You, what did you say!"

Mao Lilan airway.

"This building belongs to my father. I declare now that you are not allowed to step in! If you want to eat, go elsewhere!"

"Hey, hey, little girl, you haven't studied the Fa, have you?"

Gu Meimen sighed, stretched out her fingers and shook gently.

"Is this floor rented out by your family? The Japanese Civil Code stipulates that when a certain house is rented out, the right to use the house has been transferred, and only the people in this coffee shop can drive me away. Do you understand?" ? Unless you stated in the rental contract that people with the name 'Gu Meimen' are not allowed to enter, otherwise you have no right to criticize me here!"

"……you you!"

Mao Lilan pointed at Gu Meimen's face, her chest heaving up and down.

This is too angry to speak.

After the previous subway incident, she knew this man's fangs and sharp mouth.

With a verbal dispute, she would definitely not be able to quarrel with him. She is the daughter of a lawyer and knows that arguing with someone who studies law is like hitting an egg against a rock.

It's even worse to fight, maybe with the virtue of this lawyer, he will sue her back.

"Please get out of the way, thank you!"

Then came the hateful voice of the lawyer opposite.

Mao Lilan had no choice but to give him an angry look, and let him enter the coffee shop on the first floor.

"Sister Xiaolan, this guy is not a good person!"

Conan's voice suddenly came from the side.

I saw that he came out from behind a tree.

This period of time was after school, and he was about to go home when he happened to see this scene, so he hid aside and eavesdropped.

"I can see it!" Mao Lilan nodded and said angrily, "Conan, you will have less contact with this kind of person in the future, it's really disgusting!"

Conan looked at the figure of the ancient beauty in the restaurant, frowning.

He knew that this lawyer was not a resident of Mihua Town, but now he specially came to this restaurant to eat...

Thinking of this, Conan quietly slipped in without saying a word.

Here, Gu Meimen entered the coffee shop, looked around for a while, but didn't see Sakaguchi for a while, so she found a seat and sat down, ordered some desserts.

After about ten minutes, Sakaguchi arrived late.

Gu Meimen raised his eyebrows, and he saw a familiar figure beside Sakaguchi.

Haibara Ai, the little girl I only saw once last time.

"Sorry, I delayed here for a while, because Xiao Ai said that she wanted to come here no matter what."

Sakaguchi said in an apologetic tone.

Haibara Ai next to him also said at the right time: "Uncle Sakaguchi, I want to eat parfait and ice cream!"

"You can't be so rude, Xiao Ai, quickly call Uncle Gu Meimen!"

"Okay, Uncle Gu Meimen!"

Hui Yuanai pursed her mouth and reluctantly greeted her.

Continue to pretend, it looks quite similar.

Gu Meimen glanced at Hui Yuan Ai's seemingly innocent child's face.

He didn't know why Hui Yuan Ai ran to Sakaguchi's house, but he must have used deception to get in by pretending to be a poor little girl, planning to live there for nothing.

I guess they had a falling out with Conan and the others, or something.

Soon, the dessert and coffee sets ordered by several people came up.

Seeing the food, Hui Yuanai didn't say a word, just sat quietly on the side, obediently enjoying the delicious ice cream.

Gu Meimen's eyes no longer stayed on her.

He didn't talk nonsense and said directly.

"Okay, let's get straight to the point. Regarding what you said on the phone, if you have any good commissions, let's take a look."

Sakaguchi nodded, and took out a document from his briefcase.

"This is a lawsuit from Chiba County. The person involved is a policeman from Chiba County. He was arrested on suspicion of a murder case."

Gu Meimen took the document and read it carefully.

As he read and read, he suddenly frowned when he saw a certain line of words.

"Is this the case that Mori Kogoro solved again?"

Sakaguchi nodded: "Well, I heard that the person who committed the crime is still a classmate of Maori's university."

"I see……"

Following the words on the document, some memory fragments of Gu Meimen gradually awakened.

This case was mentioned in the original animation, and it is also very classic. It is called "Kogoro Alumni Murder Case".

"That's interesting."

Gu Meimen's tightly locked brows gradually relaxed, and the corners of her mouth curled up.

"Then, why don't you accept this lawsuit? I think the entrustment fee offered there is as much as 200 million."

"Because this case was solved by the famous detective Kogoro, there is relatively sufficient evidence, and that policeman did indeed kill someone."

Sakaguchi said so.

"My conscience tells me I cannot defend a murderer, so I refuse to take the case."

"Huh? What silly things are you talking about?"

Gu Meimen burst out laughing, as if hearing something funny.

"How can you be sure that he is the real murderer? Just because of the evidence given by the detective? Have you forgotten your own case? Also, if you really want to do a good job as a lawyer, don't put your conscience all day long. This kind of thing is on the lips, the law never talks about conscience, understand?"

"Uh……"

Sakaguchi smiled bitterly.

Although Gu Meimen's words were not pleasant, he couldn't refute them.

"I've accepted this lawsuit."

All the documents given by Gu Mei's goalkeeper Sakaguchi were taken back into his briefcase.

"Then think about it clearly, as I said just now, this case was solved by Kogoro Mouri, and there is evidence."

"Isn't there any so-called evidence in your case? Didn't he also break it?" Gu Meimen disagreed.

Sakaguchi gave him a deep look.

"For a person like you, as long as you give enough money, no matter what kind of lawsuit, no matter which side justice is on, you don't care... You are really terrible."

"Wrong, justice has never been on one side, it is just something that some people keep saying, and it becomes justice as if it is on their side."

Gu Meimen made his signature gesture - raised a finger and shook it lightly, with an inexplicable smile on his face.

"Strictly speaking, in this world, only the winner is justice."

Sitting on the side eating parfait obediently, Huihara Ai, who hadn't spoken for a long time, raised her head slightly.

There was a faint light in the ice blue eyes.
