Conan: The winner is justice

"Lawyer Gu Meimen, right? Are you here to entrust a matter to my father?"

Mao Lilan quickly came back to her senses and became angry when she remembered what happened last time on the subway about giving up her seat.

That incident left a deep impression on her. She had never encountered such a nasty guy.

"Go away, you are not welcome here!"

As she said this, she was about to push the Gumei door out of the store.

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

"Little girl, make no mistake, I'm here to dine. This kind of place looks like a third-rate detective agency. Who would come to do business with you!"

"You, what did you say!"

Maorilan airway.

"This building belongs to my father. I declare now that you are not allowed to enter! If you want to have a meal, go somewhere else!"

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

Gu Meimen sighed, stretched out his fingers and shook them gently.

"Is this floor rented out by your family? The Japanese Civil Code stipulates that when a certain house is rented, the right to use the house has been transferred. Only the people in this cafe can evict me. Do you understand? ? Unless you stated in the rental contract that no one with the name 'Gu Meimen' is allowed to enter, you have no right to point fingers at me here!"

"……you you!"

Mao Lilan pointed at Gu Meimen's face, her chest rising and falling.

He was so angry that he was speechless.

After the previous incident on the subway, she knew this person's sharp teeth and sharp mouth.

She would definitely not be able to quarrel with him through a verbal argument. She was the daughter of a lawyer, and she knew that quarreling with people who studied law was like throwing an egg against a stone.

Beating her would be even worse. With this lawyer's virtue, he might even sue her in return.

"Please step aside, thank you!"

The hateful voice of the lawyer opposite came to my ears again.

Mao Lilan had no choice but to glare at him angrily and let him into the coffee shop on the first floor.

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

Conan's voice suddenly came from next to him.

I saw him walking out from behind a tree.

It was time after school and he was about to go home. He happened to see this scene and hid aside to eavesdrop.

"I see!" Mao Lilan nodded and said angrily, "Conan, you should have less contact with this kind of people in the future. It's so abominable!"

Conan frowned as he looked at the figure of Gu Meimen in the restaurant.

He knew that this lawyer was not a resident of Miwa Town, but now he came to this restaurant specifically to dine...

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

Here, Komemon entered the cafe, looked around for a while, and saw no one from Sakaguchi for the time being, so he found a seat to sit down and ordered some desserts.

After about ten minutes, Sakaguchi arrived late.

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

Huihara Ai, a little girl whom I just met last time.

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

Sakaguchi said in an apologetic tone.

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

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

"Okay, hello Uncle Gu Meimen!"

Haiyuan Ai pursed her lips and said hello reluctantly.

Keep pretending, it looks quite similar.

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

He didn't know why Haibara Ai came to Sakaguchi's house, but he must have used deception to get in by pretending to be a poor little girl, intending to live and eat there for free.

He probably had a falling out with Conan and those guys, or something like that.

Soon, the desserts and coffee sets ordered by several people arrived.

When she saw the food, Haiyuan Ai didn't say anything. She just sat quietly and enjoyed the delicious ice cream obediently.

Gu Meimen's eyes no longer lingered on her.

He said it directly without talking nonsense.

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

Sakaguchi nodded and took out a document from his briefcase.

"This is a lawsuit in Chiba Prefecture. The person involved is a police officer from Chiba Prefecture and was arrested on suspicion of a murder case."

Gu Meimen took the document and read it carefully.

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

"Is this another case that Mouri Kogoro solved?"

Sakaguchi nodded: "Well, I heard that the person responsible for the crime is still a college classmate of Maori."

"I see……"

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

This case was told in the original animation, and it is also very classic, called "The Murder Case of Kogoro's Alumni Reunion".

"That's interesting."

Gu Meimen's frown gradually relaxed, and the corner of her mouth curled up.

"Then, why don't you take this lawsuit? I think the commission fee offered there is as much as two million."

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

Sakaguchi said so.

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

"Huh? What nonsense are you talking about?"

Gu Meimen burst into laughter, as if she had heard something funny.

"How are you sure 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 worry about your conscience all day long. You talk about this kind of thing, but the law never respects your conscience, do you understand?"

"Well……"

Sakaguchi smiled bitterly.

Although Gu Meimen's words didn't sound good, he couldn't refute them.

"I'll take this lawsuit."

Gu Meimen took back all the documents given by Sakaguchi into his briefcase.

"Then think clearly. I just said that this case was solved by Moori Kogoro, and there is evidence."

"Isn't there any so-called evidence in your case? Wasn't he the one who solved it?" Gu Meimen disagreed.

Sakaguchi looked at him deeply.

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

"That's wrong. Justice is never on either side. It's just something that some people keep talking about, and it becomes as if justice is on their side."

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

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

Sitting aside and eating parfait obediently, Haiyuan Ai, who had not spoken for a long time, raised his head slightly.

There was a faint light in the ice blue eyes.
