Conan: The winner is justice

In the gallery.

"This is really a morning drama heroine!"

Gu Meimen, who had noticed all Mao Lilan's actions just now, couldn't help but smacked his tongue.

"How dare you do something in court? Is this something ordinary people can do?"

"I think she did a great job."

Xiao Ai on the side had twinkling eyes and a look of relief on her face.

Gu Meimen turned to look at her: "What's great? For the kind of thing she did just now, the judge didn't kick her out. I thought she took money."

Xiao Ai smiled slightly and said, "Don't you think what she just said was great?"

"Haha, it looks pretty good. It looks like something the heroine of a morning drama would do if she had her brain blown."

Gu Meimen laughed.

"With her serious personality, I'm afraid there will be a catastrophe in the legal profession in the future."

In court.

After Mao Lilan returned to his seat.

The judge banged the hammer and asked her for the third time: "Does the plaintiff have any opinions about the defendant's point of view?"

The implication is that if you can no longer produce evidence that can be refuted, then the plaintiff can only lose the case.

"Of course we have evidence too!"

Mao Lilan raised her head high.

"In court, I apply to summon new witnesses!"

The judge perked up and nodded immediately: "Grant the plaintiff's request!"

Soon, a new witness was brought forward.

Seeing the appearance of this witness, Daisuke Tokura in the dock opened his eyes in surprise and pointed at him.

"It's you?!"

In the auditorium, Gu Meimen also narrowed his eyes.

It turned out that the identity of the witness was Toshiya Toshiya, a student of Tokura Daisuke.

Gu Meimen had been to Tokura Daisuke's villa before, and had met him once before, and it was this person who opened the door for him and showed him the way.

Toshiya Tadokoro glanced in the direction of the plaintiff's seat.

"I can testify that the agreements signed by Daisuke Tokura and them are all fake!"

"The division of shared copyrights is actually a scam!"

"The real situation is that all the copyright of this book has always been firmly in the hands of Daisuke Tokura himself!"

As soon as these words came out, the whole place was in an uproar.

No one expected that this matter would actually turn around!

"You, you are talking nonsense!"

Torakura Daisuke became anxious, stood up and roared.

"Defendant, please be silent!"

The judge knocked the hammer, then looked at Toshiya Tadokoro: "Plaintiff witness, please continue to express your views."

Tadokoro Toshiya nodded and said: "The reason why I say this is because the person who has been writing this book is not Tokura Daisuke, nor are these people he invited..."

There was a pause.

"It's me! The real situation is that I have been writing this book for him!"

This news is very exciting.

Suddenly, there was a burst of whispers in the courtroom.

From plagiarism to shared copyright, to becoming a ghostwriter, the truth is full of twists and turns.

"You're talking nonsense! You didn't write this book at all!"

At this time, Tokura Daisuke was sweating profusely on his forehead, and he seemed to be a little incoherent.

Tadokoro Toshiya glanced at him and ignored him.

"In fact, my teacher had exhausted his talents several years ago and could not write anything at all."

Toshiya Tadokoro continued to state the facts.

"About five years ago, he started hiring me to ghostwrite novels for him, becoming his full-time gunman, and claiming to the outside world that I was his student. And this novel, "The Adventures of Black Cat with Shield", was written by me for him. Published work!”

"Nonsense, nonsense, what evidence do you have!" Daisuke Tokura was furious, "I wrote all the novels myself, I didn't hire any gunmen at all! You, you guy, it's a shame that I still think of you as my student. , you actually ate the inside out! I, I want to sue you for defamation, sue you for destroying my reputation!"

"quiet!"

The judge banged the hammer and then asked: "Can the plaintiff produce evidence for the witness's point of view?"

"sure."

Mao Lilan nodded immediately and picked up a document from the table.

It can be seen that although Mao Lilan's performance was not very good at the beginning, there were a lot of nervousness and recklessness.

But as this was the first lawsuit in her life, she was obviously well prepared.

"First of all, this is Daisuke Tokura's work published seven years ago and later. We can compare the styles of the two before and after."

Mao Lilan showed the documents to everyone.

There is a large sheet of book titles on the paper, arranged in two rows.

"The novels written seven years ago were mainly horror and suspense, with mostly vampire themes, and the style of writing was also very retro."

"The style of the subsequent novels began to change, and became creations with heroic fantasy as the main element. The style is closer to young people, and the writing style is also close to the humor of young people."

"This kind of strong style is beyond the control of ordinary people."

"As for "The Adventures of Shield Black Cat", it is obviously the style of the latter, plus there are differences in its wording and sentence making..."

"Above, there is a suspicion that a gunman was hired to write for you!"

Mao Lilan finished the story in one breath.

She looked up at the judge.

At this time, she had a smile and confidence in her pure eyes, with almost no impurities.

The judge nodded and looked at the defendant's seat: "The defendant and his attorney, please express your opinions."

The defendant's lawyer's heart skipped a beat, and he secretly felt that something was wrong.

"This, this is just the plaintiff's speculation! What conclusive evidence do you have?"

He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and pretended to be calm, but his demeanor and behavior completely lost the confidence he had at the beginning.

"There is decisive evidence!"

Mao Lilan gestured slightly to the witness Toshiya Tadokoro.

Toshiya Tadokoro took out a contract-style paper from his arms.

"This is the labor contract signed between me and Daisuke Tokura. It states that I helped him write this novel, "The Adventures of the Shield Black Cat." Please review it with the judge."

The clerk took the contract from Toshiya Tadokoro and passed it to the judge.

The judge looked it over and nodded.

This is a labor contract, and its authenticity can be confirmed. Toshiya Tadokoro was employed by Daisuke Tokura.

The relationship between the two parties is an employment relationship, not a joint partnership, and there is no shared copyright.

It also has Daisuke Tokura's personal seal on it, so it cannot be fake.

"I don't believe it, I want to see it for myself!"

Over in the dock, Daisuke Tokura suddenly shouted, rushed to the referee's seat, and grabbed the contract from the judge's hand.

After just one glance, he shouted loudly: "This contract of yours is a forgery. I have never signed such a contract!"

However, before he could finish his words, judicial policemen from both sides rushed up to him, subdued him and pushed him down on the table next to him.

Here, Mao Lilan didn't even look at him.

“According to Article 15 of the Japanese Copyright Act, when a person engaged in the business of a legal person, etc., creates a work in the performance of his or her duties at the initiative of a legal person or a user, and the legal person, etc. publishes such work in its own name, As long as there is no other provision in the contract or work regulations at the time of creation, the legal person, etc. shall be regarded as the author."

In the gallery.

"I didn't expect this to actually work." Xiao Ai couldn't help but sigh.

What does this law mean by Mao Lilan?

In general, the original owner of copyright can only be the author himself.

In other words, whoever writes the book has the copyright.

However, Japanese law adds this provision: If the author is an employee, his work is created for his duties, and the work is published in the name of his employer, then the copyright of the work should belong to the employer.

In other words, the copyright of the novel ghostwritten by the gunman is not in the hands of the gunman, but in the hands of the boss.

In other words, if we were to sue Daisuke Tokura for plagiarism, even if the book was not written by Daisuke Tokura himself but was written by a gunman, it would still be possible! Daisuke Tokura will be declared guilty of infringement!
