Chapter 120: The time after the court adjournment and quarrel
Chapter 120: Adjournment: Argument after the Court
Boom!
The door of the lounge was opened with a bang, and someone broke in.
Needless to say, it was Kumimon, as could be seen from the expression of this ace lawyer.
He had been completely burned by Xiang Yuanguang's actions!
"You're going to play some childish game of truth and justice. Can you do it later?"
"If you think Sanyuan Shunzhi is innocent, then you can defend him after he is prosecuted!"
"I worked hard all day, but a few words from you in court completely ruined everything!"
Gu Meimen paced angrily during the break.
Dai Machiko, who followed in, wanted to say something but didn't open her mouth.
If I were to speak at this time, the time I would have to work to pay off my debts would probably increase from 36 years to 40 years...
Crunch-————
Pushing the door open for Yuan Guang, he shook his head and spoke.
"As a top lawyer, you are aware of this situation."
"If Sanyuan Shunji had already been found guilty in this case, there would be no second prosecution at all."
Behind the hedgehog-haired lawyer followed Nanatsuki Koshimizu.
The detective girl casually adjusted her sunglasses and said.
"And it slanders a person who has not committed a crime and attributes the crime to that person."
"They also used propaganda, inducement and moral blackmail to manipulate the court and testimony."
"Lawyer Kumimon, your behavior is very ungentlemanly, isn't it?"
"No taste? No taste? You actually said I have no taste!?"
After being hit by Nanatsuki Koshimizu, Kumimon was completely defeated.
He walked quickly to Xiang Yuanguang, pointed at his chest again, and spoke loudly.
"Your behavior is against the professional ethics of lawyers. How did you get the medal?"
"Your last name is Xiang Yuan, right? Hmm? Did your grandfather, who was the former Minister of Justice, help you get it?"
"Did he also help you get the perfect score for admission to the Faculty of Law at the University of Tokyo? Hmm?"
Xiang Yuanguang's eyes became sharp.
He stared at Gu Meimen, causing the ace lawyer, who was originally red-hot, to suddenly become quiet.
For some reason, Gu Meimen felt that the atmosphere around him seemed to have suddenly turned cold.
Is...is it an illusion?
"I don't care what other lawyers do. I just defend according to my own philosophy."
"Because there are inevitable doubts in the inference you put forward, I will overturn it and reorganize it."
"There can't be any wrongful conviction in the courtroom when I'm defending you - that's it."
Is this something like the main character of Shonen Jump or a morning drama saying?
Ace lawyer Gu Meimen was silent. He found that the guy in front of him seemed to be the kind of person who was consistent in his appearance and heart.
Although the method is a little different, the concept has not changed from beginning to end.
What a die-hard human rights lawyer... Although he doesn't like him, he doesn't hate him either.
"...In short, a completely new situation has now emerged in the case."
"Whether you like it or not, you can only help me find more evidence about Shimazu Sae."
"Kumimon, let's cooperate for now in order to find the full truth of this case."
He said this to Genkou, but Kumimon's eyes narrowed and he directly rejected the suggestion.
"Hmph, what you said may make sense, but - I refuse!"
"Tomorrow, I will find new evidence to prove Sanyuan Shunzhi's guilt. Just wait for me!"
"Dei, let's go!"
The ace lawyer pushed open the door of the lounge and left without looking back.
Dai Machiko hesitated for a moment, and finally raised her hand to cheer Xiang Yuanguang up and followed.
Dong——--——
The door of the lounge was closed. Xiang Yuanguang couldn't help but sigh.
"The only thing I have learned in my long life is that human beings cannot understand each other."
“Even if they have the same interests, they will make completely different choices for various reasons.”
"Yueshui, let's go to the detention center to check on Yamada Yong's condition. We still have a lot of things to do next."
"...You are about the same age as me, so why does it take so long?"
Nanatsuki Koshimizu, who was wearing headphones, said unhappily.
"Don't let my age also make me an old man!"
"If you want to be an uncle, then be one yourself, Master Xiang Yuan!"
—————April 26, 1:40 p.m.——————
—————Detention center, Yamada Isamu's room——————
"Lawyer, why do you do this? Are you really an undercover agent of the prosecutor?"
Yamada Yong was very excited. He didn't know why the situation was that they were supposed to be found not guilty.
Suddenly, after a few words from Xiang Yuanguang, he turned around and walked in another direction.
"Even if Attorney Gu Meimen is the main defense lawyer, I will not reduce your commission..."
"It doesn't matter whether it's a commission or not. I just wanted you to return the money you embezzled."
The hedgehog-headed lawyer shook his head slightly. He took out some documents from his backpack and patted them.
Afterwards, he posted the information on the transparent glass in the detention center room and showed it to Yamada Isamu.
"If Sanyuan Shunji is not the real murderer, it means that the murderer who killed President Shimazu is still at large."
"And in the courtroom, Sanyuan Shunji's shock at the surveillance footage didn't seem fake. It's possible..."
"The real murderer's goal is to use the Inquisition to eliminate you and Kaga Ranmaru."
(Yeah, probably. Anyway, it’s right to stabilize Yamada Yujun first.)
"Get rid of me? Why? I don't know anything!"
Yamada Yong's face was full of shock, and he said without understanding what was going on.
"After I told Kaga Ranmaru about this matter, Kaga Ranmaru called President Shimazu."
"Then we went to Shimadzu Company at the agreed time, but unexpectedly we ran into a murder case..."
An agreed... time? Was this discussed before?
Xiang Yuanguang's eyes narrowed. The recent events happened too suddenly and he had not done enough preparation.
It turns out that there is already testimony about [time] here.
The hedgehog-headed lawyer frowned and asked.
"What time was it when you called?"
After thinking for a while, Yamada Yong said uncertainly.
"It should be around 4:30 in the afternoon? Kaga Ranmaru's phone was a bit noisy at the time."
"It seems that there is someone talking next to President Shimazu, and they sound very impatient."
"I heard President Shimazu say, 'Okay, then come after dinner, around 7 o'clock.'"
The chairman of the neighborhood committee was suddenly startled at this moment.
Yes, there were other people next to President Shimazu at that time, which means... Xiang Yuan’s opinion might be true!
"H-What should I do? It seems like someone really wants to frame me and Kaga Ranmaru."
"Lawyer, please, you must find out the truth behind this!"
Xiang Genguang and Koshimizu Nanatsuki looked at each other, then Xiang Genguang nodded.
"Don't worry, I would do the same even if you didn't tell me."
"Finally, what I want to ask is, is the person who was talking to President Shimazu the voice of a young man?"
Yamada Isamu nodded.
"I didn't hear it clearly, but it should be like this."
Without asking any further questions, Genmitsu Mukai and Nanatsuki Koshimizu left the detention center.
Xiang Yuanguang already had an idea about the next investigation plan.
