Conan's Victory is Justice

Chapter 17 You Should Be the Big Buddha of Mihua Temple
Facing the unbelievable Gu Meimen, Masayoshi Sakaguchi smiled, but his face was relieved.

"Maehara just caused me to lose my son, but he is also a child with parents. I am a lawyer in charge of juvenile cases, so I can understand the feelings of parents who are separated from their children. Anyway, I killed people, so I want to give their relatives some compensation as much as possible, as a redemption."

After listening to his words, Gu Meimen sighed.

"So, I've said it all, how do you know that you really killed someone?"

"Uh, isn't it me?" Sakaguchi asked suspiciously.

"Please, think about it carefully, do you think you can really easily kill a person in that foolish way? Didn't you hear what I said in court?"

Sakaguchi froze.

Indeed, Gu Meimen said so, if it is true, the probability of him not being able to kill Maehara Gang is much higher than that of killing him.

"So, it really could have been an accident, understand?"

"But, the password is me..."

"Password, what password? What can you prove? There are so many words in Japanese with one meaning, and the various usages are messy, and there is no limit. Good morning (おはよう) can still be said to people at night, you are a dizzy old man, and When a dog says good night, how can you be sure what password you said?"

"Uh……"

Sakaguchi blinked.

Thinking about it carefully, he really couldn't be sure what he was talking about at that time. After all, just like what Gu Meimen said, he was getting old and his memory had declined a lot.

"Did I really not kill someone?"

Sakaguchi was dumbfounded, feeling a little absurd for a while.

"So, it doesn't matter what the truth is." Gu Meimen said, "The important thing is that you were released because of insufficient evidence, understand?"

Sakaguchi was silent for a moment, then shook his head.

"However, Maehara died because of my dog ​​after all. This cannot be changed. According to the requirements of civil liability, I paid three times more compensation to his family."

"..."

Gu Meimen stared at Masayoshi Sakaguchi for a while.

Then reached out and patted his shoulder, pulled his body to the right, and pointed to the direction of the distant sky.

"Have you seen that mountain? There is a Mihua Temple on the mountain. I think you should be the big Buddha inside."

"Well, lawyer Gu Meimen is serious."

Masayoshi Sakaguchi knew that Gu Meimen was mocking him, so he was not angry, but still smiled with relief.

Gu Meimen shook her head.

There is a paradox in this world.

Although there are frequent murders here, everyone has the possibility of being a prisoner. People will be influenced by their emotions and commit various impulsive cases.

But, most of the people here still have kindness towards others from the bottom of their hearts.

The most intuitive expression is what I said earlier, most people who have nothing to do with him show positive favorability, rather than stopping at zero or negative.

This has also caused quite a few criminals to knelt down and confessed as long as a detective gave some clues after committing crimes, even if there was no definite evidence.

"People's hearts are really unpredictable..."

Gu Meimen pouted.From his point of view, they are all a bunch of idiots.

"Actually, I didn't make that much determination to sell the house at the beginning."

Masayoshi Sakaguchi said at this time.

"Until a few days ago, I saw a little girl with brown hair squatting outside my yard crying in front of my house. I asked her what was wrong, and she said that her sister was killed and she was homeless now. The only relative is gone. Looking at her pitiful expression, I feel very touched in my heart, thinking that no matter what, Mae Yuangang is alone..."

"Okay, okay, I know what you mean."

Gu Meimen interrupted Sakaguchi Masayoshi's words and did not let him continue to say those touching and confessional remarks.

"So what about that little girl? You're so kind and generous, don't you think she's your goddaughter?"

"That's not true, but she does happen to be staying with me right now."

"..."

Gu Meimen almost bit her own tongue.

With his mouth open, he looked at Masayoshi Sakaguchi in surprise, and looked at his kind expression.

"You are really a superb!"

Gu Meimen let out a long sigh.

Anyway, he couldn't understand this seemingly noble spirit.

Maybe he would admire such a person, but he would not do it himself.

"Okay, stop talking nonsense and give me my money."

Gu Meimen stretched out her hand to Sakaguchi Masayoshi.

The purpose of his coming today is to ask for money, not to hear good things from good people.

Masayoshi Sakaguchi nodded, took out a stack of checkbooks from his pocket, tore off one, wrote the amount and name on it, and endorsed it to the other party.

Gu Meimen took the check and saw an amount of 150 million written on it.

"The extra 50 will be regarded as my overdue late payment."

"That's great, happy cooperation!"

Gu Meimen accepted the check with a smile.

After getting the money, he didn't intend to waste any more time here, so he chatted with Sakaguchi casually before leaving.

"Uncle Sakaguchi, I'm back!"

At this time, a little girl's voice came from the street next to her.

The little girl was carrying a schoolbag, with short brown hair, a fair face with melon seeds, and a pair of beautiful big eyes under the curved eyebrows.

Gu Meimen, who was about to leave, frowned slightly. For some reason, this girl seemed familiar.

Her eyes were calm, and there seemed to be intelligence in them-it is incredible to see such things from the eyes of a child.

"Welcome home!" Masayoshi Sakaguchi greeted with a smile, "This is the child I told you just now. Xiao Ai, come here, this is the Uncle Gu Meimen I told you about before, come say hello to him. "

The little girl came over with a cute gesture, and bent down to Gu Meimen.

"Hello, Uncle Gu Meimen. My name is Hui Yuanai, please give me your advice."

"..."

"..."

Well, now he's bumped into everything.

Gu Meimen stretched out his hand to support his forehead, and he said that the little girl looked a little familiar.

It turned out to be the legendary house goddess in the animation.

Haibara Ai, formerly known as Miyano Shiho, is known as a genius girl in the black organization. Like Kudo Shinichi, she shrunk after taking medicine.

But according to the plot, she should be staying at Dr. Ali's house now.

Why did he somehow come to such a... um, Mi Hua Buddha's house?

Gu Meimen thought for a while, but couldn't figure it out.

But he wasn't too tangled up in this place.

The characters in the original book have nothing to do with whether they live or die. It is said that it is the world of Conan, but this world is so big that it is not impossible to live without the plot.

"Little friend, live a good life with your Uncle Sakaguchi, the outside world is very dangerous, don't wander around!"

Gu Meimen touched Hui Yuanai's head with a smile.

After that, he stopped staying here, bid farewell to the two, and left this area.

Hui Yuanai in the courtyard quietly watched the back of Gu Meimen leaving, her big calm eyes seemed to fluctuate, but after a while, they returned to normal.

……

After leaving Mihua Residential Area, the first thing Gu Meimen did was to withdraw money from the paying bank recorded on the check.

Walking on the commercial street, Gu Meimen carefully looked around.

He is observing the favorability bar on the pedestrian's head.

As mentioned earlier, most people's favorability bars are positive.

But that's really only limited to people who are not yet criminally inclined.

If it is someone who is about to commit a crime soon, his favorability bar is very likely to become a negative number.

why?

It's very simple. People generally have negative emotions when they commit crimes. According to criminal psychology, people in this state will look at the people around them with a mentality of "it would be great if the world was destroyed like this". .

If someone sees his favorability as a negative number, be careful.

Maybe he will commit a crime soon, and it will affect the people around him.

If he went to the bank to withdraw money, a guy with negative favorability just happened to run in, took out a gun and shot at the people around him indiscriminately, robbing the bank-although the probability of this was very low, it was not impossible in this world.

Of course, if the favorability is negative, it is also possible that the person is simply in a bad mood, but Gu Meimen, who has always been cautious, will not allow herself to make any mistakes.After all, he is now carrying a huge sum of money.

"Cash or transfer?"

"Transfer the money, I have an account with this bank."

"Okay sir, please wait a moment."

It took a while to find a good bank to withdraw money, Gu Meimen breathed a sigh of relief, seeing the bank account on the mobile phone, the money in it has been successfully credited to the account.

This matter is finally resolved.

The next step is to plan how to use the money and use it to plan future work and life.
