Conan: The winner is justice

On the way back, Gu Meimen witnessed two robberies and a theft, both of which were ongoing crimes.

Another time, a prisoner lost his mind and actually went to rob a bank, but was immediately restrained by the security system inside.

Current crimes like this are encountered several times in Gumeimen every day when traveling.

The prisoners, without exception, all have a negative favorability rating.

I couldn't help but feel glad that I was very resourceful and this experience has come to me.

The journey back to the rental house was uneventful.

In the evening, after dinner, Gu Meimen took out a piece of white paper and wrote and drew on it.

He is arranging his future life plans.

Spending 1.5 million to eat, drink and have fun is something only a fool who has been kicked in the head by a donkey would do.

As a lawyer after starting his career, what should he do first when he has some spare money?

Of course, he opened his own law firm.

Lawyers who have just started out are at best the kind of independent lawyers who need to go out every day to attract clients and business. However, most people will ignore you when they see that you don’t even have an office location and you are not well-known. The final result , you can only accept the public commission from the Lawyers Association.

The income from public entrustments is pitiful, it is purely charity, and the entrusters are all kinds of troublemakers, just like Masayoshi Sakaguchi did before. In Gu Meimen's view, this kind of entrustment is garbage in the trash can.

Or lawyers can work under other people's law firms.

But with a character like Gu Meimen's, unless he meets a wise person who takes a fancy to his talent, he is afraid that he will quarrel with his boss on the first day at work, and then he will be directly thrown into the cold palace without any entrustment.

Therefore, opening his own law firm is the first priority for Gu Meimen.

The next day, Gu Meimen went out early and visited various housing agencies.

Finally, I found a good office in an office building on a commercial street in Shibuya District, Tokyo.

The minimum rent is half a year, about 30 square meters, complete with desks and chairs, sofas and bookcases. The key is that the monthly rent is only 100,000 yen.

Shibuya Ward is a large district in Tokyo. It is located in the central area, with a huge flow of people and prosperous commercial activities. Department stores, fashion stores, restaurants, amusement facilities, custom facilities, etc. are densely packed like clouds. It is the same as Shinjuku. An urban area classified as a "24-hour sleepless street".

Why is rent so cheap?

Of course it’s because someone died before.

I heard that my predecessor in the office was also a lawyer. He had a little dispute with his client and was choked to death by the client in the toilet.

How miserable.

After renting an office, you just need to bring the documents and register a law firm.

There is no department like the Industrial and Commercial Bureau in Japan. To register a company, you have to go to the corresponding Legal Affairs Bureau, determine the legal representative, make a company seal, and establish the company name.

The name of the firm is, of course, Gumeimen Law Firm.

It took Gu Meimen about ten days to do all these things.

The last step is to hire an assistant.

A lawyer is a civil servant and cannot be without an assistant. He has to deal with a lot of documents and come into contact with a lot of written materials.

However, with Gumeimen's current financial resources, it is not yet able to recruit employees.

Just renting a house and registering a company had already spent more than half of the 1.5 million.

This matter can only be shelved temporarily.

After finishing the company's affairs, the next step is to consider the issue of customer sources.

It's more difficult on the client side. There are so many law firms in Tokyo and they are extremely competitive. They are all famous and unknown. Unless you have a certain network of connections, you can only be honest and accept public commissions to build your reputation.

Over the course of a week, a few clients came to the door, but they were all trivial civil litigation cases, and the commission fees that could be charged were even rubbish than the public commissions.

Gu Meimen's only current connection is with the client from the first lawsuit, Masayoshi Sakaguchi.

"no solution anymore."

Gu Meimen took out her mobile phone and called Sakaguchi.

Although it was a one-time client, Sakaguchi was a lawyer after all, and he might have some good clients accumulated over there.

"Dululu~"

After a period of retro ringing, the phone was connected and Sakaguchi's voice came.

"Hey, who is this?"

"I'm Gu Meimen, I have something I want to talk to you about."

"It turns out to be Lawyer Gu Meimen, what's the matter?"

"Is such that……"

Gu Meimen briefly talked to him on the phone.

"Don't worry, if there is an entrustment, I will give you a certain amount of the entrustment fee, which will be regarded as the agency fee for your introduction."

"I see."

Sakaguchi probably understood Gu Meimen’s intention.

After a pause, he spoke over there.

"Lawyer Gu Meimen is so polite. I do have some remaining commissions, but they are basically handled by teenagers. Are you sure you are qualified?"

"forget about it."

Gu Meimen shook his head and was about to hang up the phone.

Juvenile handling cases is not his cup of tea. In Gu Meimen's view, Japanese primary and secondary school students are the most troublesome. They are simple-minded and have shallow ideas. They think about love and such things all day long. When they see the opposite sex, they become Donkeys in heat, to put it simply, teenagers are a bunch of idiots.

If you really file a lawsuit against them, you might even turn into a pig teammate, run to the opposite side, and fight nine in the end.

"Lawyer Gu Meimen, please wait."

Just when Gu Meimen was about to hang up the phone, Sakaguchi suddenly stopped him.

"Although my case here is mostly juvenile cases, an old friend did ask me to file a lawsuit for him a while ago, although I refused."

"Oh? What lawsuit?"

"On this point, let's discuss it in detail in person."

"Okay, let's make an appointment?"

"Hmm, how about Polo Cafe, 5-chome, Yoneka Town?"

Gu Meimen frowned slightly, the name seemed familiar.

However, in order to receive the job as soon as possible, he accepted the job without thinking too much.

After hanging up the phone, Gu Meimen prepared and left immediately.

After riding the train for a while, we came to Miwa Town again.

After the last lawsuit, I have been here dozens of times. Gu Meimen is also a veteran. After asking for directions, I easily found my destination.

It is a three-story building.

The sign outside the door says Polo Cafe on the first floor, and on the second floor...

Gu Meimen wiped his eyes.

"What the hell! Mori Detective Agency?!"

Gu Meimen, who almost never used curse words, finally couldn't help but curse.

Let’s just say that the name of the cafe sounds familiar, and it turns out it’s underneath the Mori Detective Agency!

"It's you!"

A girl's surprised voice came to my ears.

Gu Meimen turned her head expressionlessly.

I saw a girl wearing a JK uniform with an unknown bulge on her head covering her mouth and looking at me in surprise.

Maori Lan, Maori Kogoro's only daughter, they had met on the subway before.
