Conan: The winner is justice

"Oh, it's such a close call."

Gu Meimen looked at the broken arrow on the ground and patted his chest exaggeratedly.

"Well done."

He gave Aso a thumbs up.

This bodyguard really paid off.

Aso nodded honestly and looked towards the direction of the arrow.

On the other side of the stairs was a young man in his thirties.

Wearing glasses and looking gentle, he looked exactly like the person in the photo, Tokura Etsuko's affair partner, Hamura Shuichi.

He has been hiding in Tokura Etsuko's bedroom.

"No wonder Mrs. Tokura has been staying behind closed doors these days."

Gu Meimen clicked his tongue.

"It turns out that I kept my lover at home, and while my husband was arrested and sent to the detention center, I had an affair with my lover at home openly and openly!"

Over there, when Shu Hamura saw that the sneak attack failed, he immediately shouted: "Etsuko, run!"

However, before he could finish his words, he received a heavy punch in the face from Aso Makoto who came over.

This punch was so powerful that all of his teeth were knocked out in one fell swoop, and he was rolled down the stairs with him. His head was bruised and bleeding, and he screamed in agony.

Aso Makoto went down the stairs and checked the other party's condition.

It was found that one of the man's legs had been broken, and it was confirmed that he had no ability to resist.

He was very relaxed, tied his hands behind his back, and quickly subdued him.

Here, Etsuko Tokura saw that something was not good, picked up an ashtray on the table with her right hand, and threw it on the head of Komei's door.

Unfortunately, Gu Meimen had already reacted.

He stretched out a hand and easily grabbed Etsuko Tokura's hand holding the ashtray. He twisted it slightly and successfully restrained it.

Then, imitating Aso's honest look, he tied his hands behind his back.

"let me go!"

Etsuko Tokura struggled desperately, but in the end she was just a weak woman, not as strong as a man like Komemon.

"Snapped!"

Gu Meimen slapped her hard on the face.

"Pop!"

One slap after another.

"Woooooooo..."

Etsuko Tokura immediately stopped struggling, tears streaming down her cheeks that were already red and swollen.

She hates that her life is miserable and the world is unfair.

Why do we encounter such unfortunate things one after another in this life?

"Don't act like a victim, thank you."

Gu Meimen sat back on the sofa, picked up the unfinished tea on the table, and took a very comfortable sip.

Unlike that cup of coffee, this tea is non-toxic.

It is easy for Gu Meimen to judge whether he has poisoned himself or not, just look at the favorability bar on the other person's head.

"The moment you want to kill someone, your personal position has nothing to do with the victim."

"Then what can I do?" Etsuko Tokura said angrily, "The world is so unfair. Do you know how many bad things Tokura has done in the past? The law cannot punish him. He will use legal loopholes to get rid of his charges, let alone return the charges. With the help of an unscrupulous lawyer like you! Can ordinary people like us just watch you get away with it?"

Etsuko Tokura was almost hysterical when she said these words.

Gu Meimen glanced at her lightly.

What Etsuko Tokura said is also the core contradiction of this world.

The crime rate in this world is very high, and a considerable number of people kill people out of helplessness.

"I am a lawyer, and Daisuke Tokura is my client. Is there anything wrong with me accepting money to help him fight a lawsuit?"

"So you are an unscrupulous lawyer!"

Etsuko Tokura looked at him with hatred.

"What kind of person is Tokura? What do you outsiders know? We just want him to go to jail, and we just want him to deserve the punishment he deserves. Do you want to stop this?!"

"It is only natural to accept money to do things. In this lawsuit, since he is my client, I will do my best to exonerate him. This is my duty as a lawyer."

Gu Meimen said so.

There was a pause.

He smiled meaningfully.

"However, my responsibility only lies in the current lawsuit."

Etsuko Tokura stopped sobbing.

She looked at Gu Meimen in confusion, even she could hear the meaning in Gu Meimen's words, something was wrong.

Gu Meimen shrugged and leaned his head back on the sofa.

"As for what you just did, I won't pursue it for the time being."

It is also difficult to pursue the case. Gu Meimen is accustomed to using the law to do things, but here there are no third-party witnesses, only some physical evidence, which can only be used as indirect evidence. If you want to accuse the other party of intentional homicide, you will be waffling for a long time.

况且，麻生诚实也狠狠揍了那个偷袭的情夫一顿，还打折了对方一条腿。

Etsuko Tokura, who had herself been drugged, was slapped hard.

Let's treat this matter as even.

"So, back to the topic just now, do you agree or disagree with the request I made?"

"..."

Tokura Etsuko's expression suddenly changed.

I hesitated and thought in my heart.

…

Before noon, Gu Meimen returned to his villa.

"Come back so soon?"

Xiao Ai was sitting in front of the computer in the living room, not looking back, still writing her novel.

"Of course, the matter has been settled and the other party agreed to testify for me."

Gu Meimen briefly told Xiao Ai about this matter.

After hearing this, Xiao Ai turned around and said, "It's really your style of doing things, coercion, inducement, and even intimidation."

Gu Meimen raised his eyebrows: "Don't say it's that simple, I was almost killed by the other party."

"Really? I think you are quite relaxed."

"so so."

Gu Meimen glanced at the computer in front of Xiao Ai and asked casually.

"So, what about you? How is the novel going?"

"It's not bad. It's becoming more and more popular, and many people are giving rewards."

Xiao Ai frowned, "Even the negative reviews have become more and more numerous. People who scold me are picking and choosing."

"Oh, didn't I tell you? Delete all negative reviews."

Gu Meimen said.

"Remember, if you don't spend a penny, have low fan base, or give you bad reviews, just don't treat him as a human being. Such people have no human rights. Of course, except for those with high fan base, you can treat him as your father. He can scold you whatever he wants."

Xiao Ai raised her eyebrows and said speechlessly: "What you said is too utilitarian, isn't it? They are all my readers after all."

Gu Meimen rolled his eyes: "What are you daydreaming about? Your readers are all your readers. Are you a newcomer writing novels for the first time? You are lying to yourself. Why do you write novels? ? Isn’t it still for money? Is it also to express the thoughts in the heart and spread them to the world? They think it’s nothing if someone gives a negative review verbally for free, but for the author, it may cost him several meals in salary. The loss is not Your own interests?”

"Well, is there a possibility that I actually write novels mainly to express my inner thoughts?"

"Really? Then when expressing your thoughts, make sure you have enough to eat."

Gu Meimen said casually.

A night of silence.

Time passed quickly, three days passed in a flash.

Not long after, the day came for the second public trial of this case.
