Chapter 706: Kisaki Eri's Rival
"Shut up!"
The arrogant loli covered his mouth in shame and anger, her whole delicate face turned red, and she cursed directly: "You perverted lolita control."
Hanyu Nan couldn't help laughing, and he easily grabbed her little hand and kissed her palm: "Okay, okay, we were wrong."
He nuzzled Xiao Ai's cheek affectionately and said in a low voice, "After Xiao Lan and Sonoko leave tonight, we will have an animal party with onee-sama, and Xiao Ai can play however she wants."
"...Who cares." Xiao Ai muttered softly, but her tense body had relaxed, and she even leaned towards his arms unconsciously, "I'm not a childish person like Yuanzi..."
"Yes, yes, our little Ai is the most mature."
Hanyu Kusunoki pinched her nose lovingly, "So can the mature Miss Haibara forgive the noisy adults last night?"
Xiao Ai turned her face away, but the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise: "It depends on your performance..."
Hanyu Nan nodded seriously: "Then I have to perform well!"
Last night there was a missing cg of Ai/Myano Shiho’s defeat, so we have to make it up tonight.
After a while, Mingmei came out of the kitchen with breakfast.
Seeing Hanyu Kusunoki holding her sister in the living room and looking at a fashion magazine with her, she smiled knowingly.
When she woke up in the morning, she noticed that Xiao Ai was in a bad mood, and she, as her older sister, didn't know how to comfort her.
Master Hanyu is really awesome, he can be controlled by his younger sister with just a little coaxing.
"Breakfast is ready. Do you want to wake up Xiaolan and Sonoko?"
Mingmei greeted gently.
"Let them sleep a little longer." Hanyu Kusunoki glanced at the wall clock, then lowered his head and blinked at Ai, "After all, not everyone is as energetic as our Ai, who is so energetic reading magazines so early in the morning."
Xiao Ai glared at him, jumped off his lap, straightened her wrinkled dress, and said calmly, "I'll go set the table."
But when he turned around, Hanyu Nan still caught the faint smile at the corner of his mouth.
The sunlight filled the restaurant through the floor-to-ceiling windows. The shadows of the three people intertwined in the morning light. Two tired princesses were sleeping upstairs.
And a new day has just begun.
Hanyu Kusunoki took a sip of hot milk, looked at Ai who was carefully placing the tableware, and Mingmei who was holding the plate, and suddenly felt that such a warm daily life might be the most perfect happiness.
..........
..........
Two o'clock in the afternoon, Fei Law Firm.
Wearing a purple slim-fitting uniform and square-framed glasses, Hibiki Eri stood in front of a bookcase, flipping through a file in her hand. From time to time, she took a few steps in the room, and her black high heels made crisp sounds.
"There's something wrong with this clause..." she muttered to herself, her fingertips running across a line of key content, her brows slightly frowned.
As a complete workaholic.
After lunch, Lawyer Fei just took a short nap in the law firm and then continued her daily work.
Just as this graceful and beautiful woman was concentrating on studying the files, immersed in the complex legal provisions and case details, the doorbell outside rang gently.
"Kuriyama."
Without even raising her head, she subconsciously asked her apprentice to receive the visitor. Still holding the file in her hand, she calmly walked to the desk and sat down. Her fingertips once again ran over the line of the key clause that made her doubtful, and her eyes were full of thought.
Soon, the office door was gently pushed open again.
Accompanied by the sound of brisk footsteps, Kuriyama Midori walked in with a smile on her face, leading a young boy and a girl.
"Master, Hanyu and Xiaolan are here to see you."
"Mom~"
Xiaolan walked happily to the desk with the bag in her hand.
Hanyu Kusunoki followed behind, his eyes swept across the pile of documents on Eri Kisaki's desk, and he couldn't help but raise an eyebrow: "Aunt Eri, are you still working overtime on the weekend?"
Hibiki pushed up her glasses, and her sharp eyes softened instantly when she saw her daughter and the gentle boy in front of her: "There is a cross-border merger case that will go to court in two days, and there are still many details that need to be sorted out and confirmed."
As he spoke, the lawyer seemed to suddenly remember something important, turned to look at Kuriyama Midori, and asked seriously:
"Kuriyama, how are your arrangements for my work schedule this month?"
"Hmm..." Kuriyama Midori lowered her head slightly, thinking seriously: "In fact, the case at hand is about to enter the final trial, and then the public defense investigation will follow. There are also a few small cases to follow up, but there is still plenty of time."
"Oh, yes, there is also that case." Fei Yingli frowned and said, "Can you help me retrieve the information?"
Before, Xiaolan invited her to go to Osaka to enjoy the maple leaves and soak in the hot springs. The reason why she refused at first was not only because she found it difficult to face the feelings of a certain boy, but also because her work schedule was full that month.
Of course, in the end she couldn't resist Yukiko's coaxing, threats and inducements, and was pulled over.
It also made this always rational and calm lawyer begin to face up to the complex and subtle emotions deep in his heart.
"Ok."
Kuriyama Midori responded, turned around and walked quickly to look for relevant information.
Xiaolan on the side looked at Hanyu Kusunoki helplessly, with a bit of a helpless look in her eyes.
My mother is like this. Once she devotes herself to her work, it is as if she has entered a world isolated from the world. She is completely focused on her work and even forgets about the fact that her daughter and son-in-law have come to see her.
Xiaolan asked curiously, "Mom, what is public defense?"
Hearing her daughter's question, Hibiki Eri finally came back to her senses from her concentrated work. She smiled at the two of them apologetically and said, "It is because of economic considerations that when the defendant is unable to hire a lawyer, the state will hire a public defender for him to ensure that the defendant can get the defense rights he deserves in the legal process."
"If no one is willing to take the initiative to accept the defense work in this case, the Bar Association will automatically assign tasks according to the established arrangements and in the order of taking cases in turns."
As they were talking, Kuriyama Midori also came over with a file.
"Master, I found it."
"Thank you."
Kisaki Eri took the file, flipped it open, and quickly scanned the words on the page. She murmured, "I only took a quick look before going to Osaka, but how come no one has taken over this case? From the information we have so far, the defendant still has a lot of room for defense."
"It's probably because the opponent is not easy to deal with." Kuriyama Midori replied.
Xiaolan then asked: "What do you mean?"
Kuriyama Midori patiently explained: "Because the person in charge of this case is Prosecutor Kujo!"
Hearing this, Hanyu Kusunoki tilted his head, as if thinking about something.
That beautiful prosecutor.
Reiko Kujo, the ace prosecutor of the Touto District Prosecutors Office, has always regarded Eri Kisaki as her competitor. Although she has been defeated many times, she keeps fighting and never gives up. It can be said that she is Eri Kisaki's biggest rival in the legal world.
My life motto is to break the undefeated record of the undefeated queen.
Although I haven't succeeded once so far.
