Conan: My system is lawless

Chapter 169 Visiting Xiaotong

Xiaotong, I have been turned off since the first episode.

It seems that her situation in prison is better than Dr. Agasa's. At least she did not encounter the big memory recovery technique in the women's prison.

For prisoners who have irrefutable evidence and are determined to die, prisons will generally show humanistic care, patiently enlighten and carefully persuade them.

Therefore, not only will they not be subjected to the great memory recovery technique, their food may even be much better than that of ordinary prisoners.

But compared to the Xiaotong in the original work, the Xiaotong in the prison has protruding cheekbones and slightly sunken cheeks, and she is thinner after all.

"you lost weight!"

"Is it because of the remorse and anxiety you felt after killing Kishida?"

Xiaotong was stunned by what Kusadokawa blurted out, and then she looked at Kusadokawa for a long time.

"Mr. Lawyer, do we know each other?"

Kusadokawa then realized that he had said the wrong thing, so he quickly changed his words.

"I'm your student. Aren't you a gymnast? I've attended your classes before!"

"What do I look like to you?"

Xiaotong's sudden words left Kusadokawa confused.

"Like... a human!!"

puff! !

Kusadokawa's humorous words made Xiaotong burst out laughing, and then she rolled her eyes at Kusadokawa.

Xiaotong: "Do you think I'm a fool?"

Kusadokawa: "It doesn't seem like it. What? Do you want to use mental illness as an excuse to get away with it?"

Xiaotong smiled bitterly.

"If I wanted to get away with it, I wouldn't have asked the prison guard to invite you here. Now I just want to die, not live!"

Kusadokawa could understand what Xiaotong meant.

Killing is a momentary act of anger, but after killing comes endless regret.

Especially the long journey in prison made this kind girl feel that only death could comfort Kishida's soul in heaven.

"Unfortunately, the island country is very strict in sentencing for murder cases. In the two death penalty cases I handled before, except for the one that was immediately executed, the rest were basically rejected by the Minister of Justice when they were submitted to the island country government after the judge sentenced them to death."

The island nation's Minister of Justice considers it an honor not to deal with a death row inmate during his term of office.

Some condemned prisoners will deliberately delay their execution and let the next Minister of Justice sign the death penalty order.

The one who was executed in Kusanagi Kawaguchi was the kidnapper who kidnapped Tani Akiko. There was nothing that could be done about that person.

The social impact was so bad that the Minister of Justice agreed to the death penalty request in order not to arouse public outrage. The requests for the rest of the death row prisoners were basically all rejected.

"For someone like you who only killed one person, I can't think of any reason for the Minister of Justice to sign his consent to the death penalty, except for suicide. How about this? I'll get you out, and if you can't get over it, you can just hang yourself at home and slit your throat."

Xiaotong shook her head.

"Sinners need to be judged to atone for their sins. Dying at home doesn't count!"

"Girl, why are you so stubborn? You should go to my hometown and farm the fields!"

Pfft~~~

Xiaotong heard that Kusadokawa was hinting at her being stubborn, but she didn't get angry. Instead, she stared at Kusadokawa with her eyes wide open.

"Mr. Kusadokawa, besides being handsome, you are also humorous and understand girls' minds. If I had met you after breaking up with Kishida, I probably wouldn't have chosen to kill him!"

The wounds left by a relationship need to be healed by the next relationship.

"I just gave the whole prison a good mouth, so you better stop teasing me!"

"Mr. Kusadogawa, there is solid evidence that I killed Kishii, and the reasoning of the detective named Kudo Shinichi was not wrong. If I plead guilty and ask for death in court, will the judge sentence me to death?"

Kusadokawa shook his head.

"Maybe because you plead guilty and repent, you will be released in a few years. Miss Xiaotong, it is easier to live than to die. Although I have the ability to reverse right and wrong, I can't let my client lose the case. So if you want to die, I can't do anything about it. Please forgive me for not accepting your request!!"

Kusadokawa said this in a high-sounding manner, but in fact he was afraid of his own system.

The system gave him three chances to fail. He had failed once in the previous case against Tani Jingzi, so he only had two chances left. He would not waste them, especially for a prisoner like Xiaotong who had lost all hope in life. If he did not ask her to help him in court, she might even trip him up behind his back.

Come on, let’s retreat quickly!!

Whoever wants to do this commission can do it, but I won’t do it!!

Kusadokawa stood up and prepared to leave, and the prison guard was also ready to take Xiaotong away. Unexpectedly, the usually docile Xiaotong unexpectedly broke free from the prison guard today and shouted at Kusadokawa.

"Mr. Kusadokawa, do you understand why I want to die?"

"Do you know the endless regret you feel after your loved one is killed by your own hands?"

"It happened right in front of me, but I couldn't do anything. Mr. Kusadokawa, I'm already haunted by nightmares, and I just want peace of mind. If you can give me peace of mind, I won't die!!!"

Every time Xiaotong said a word, the figure of Kuroiwa Reiko would appear in Kusadokawa's mind.

Every word and sentence touched Soudaikawa's heart.

The same goes for that woman.

Knowing you will die, you still do it.

Maybe before choosing to die, one must have made a great decision!!

Kusadokawa didn't know why he sat down for some unknown reason. After the prison guard let go of Xiaotong, Kusadokawa raised the corner of his mouth slightly.

"Ms. Xiaotong, please hire me as your lawyer. I'm very expensive!"

When the word money was mentioned, Xiaotong felt inferior and didn't even dare to look at Kusadokawa.

"I'm sorry to waste your time, Mr. Lawyer. I...I don't have any money!"

"Not a penny?"

Xiaotong's eyes lit up again.

"Even one dollar is fine?"

Kusadokawa nodded.

"I have only one condition. Don't admit to anything you didn't do. Don't leave out anything you did. Sometimes atonement doesn't necessarily mean death. Peace of mind means confessing all the wrongs you've done and letting the judge give you a fair trial. What do you think?"

Xiaotong stood there for a long time without saying anything, then murmured.

"Thank you, Mr. Kusadokawa!"

"Don't be in a hurry to thank me. Please tell me everything about Mr. Kishida's family background and why he broke up with you and found a new love, Miss Aiko!"

It turned out that the deceased, Mr. Kishida, was a rich second-generation. His parents left him a large sum of money from their business ventures. Unfortunately, due to illness, both of them died, leaving Kishida alone with a valuable fortune.

Xiaotong comes from a poor family and often feels inferior when she is dating Kishida. However, when she has her birthday, she invites her boyfriend Kishida and her best friend Aiko, and the two of them have been inseparable since some time ago.

From then on, Kishida was obsessed with Aiko and broke up with her despite her strong opposition.

When Xiaotong reached this point, she covered her face with her hands and cried bitterly.

"In fact, love should not be forced. Now looking back, I was wrong after all!"
