Conan's Victory is Justice

Chapter 196 Is it a crime to copy your own book?

"Teacher Hucang, the book I wrote recently is a bit stuck, and my thinking is not smooth. I may have to ask for a leave of absence for a week."

"Ask for leave? Another week? No way! How can you just ask for leave?"

"But I can't write it. I don't have any inspiration during the low tide. If I force it, it will reduce the quality of the work."

"What era do you think it is now? Now is the Internet age. People are writing novels everywhere on the Internet. It's not the blue ocean era decades ago. It's time to write for you leisurely and polish the quality! You know that you invite a Fake, don’t say a week, even if it’s only one day, how many readers will I have to lose? If you don’t write for a day, others will read other people’s works, and who will read my book by then?”

"I'm sorry, Mr. Hucang, I really can't write for the sake of updating, it will only write rubbish."

"Idiot, it's not up to you to judge whether it's rubbish or not, it depends on the readers' senses! Most readers just read it fresh, and don't want you to write a masterpiece! If you can't write it, give me hard water. In short, you must keep updating!"

"Hydrology? What you write like that will be used as toilet paper."

"You're such a piece of shit! I've said it all, writing books in this day and age, I don't have time to polish your quality! Toilet paper is toilet paper, and now Japanese light novels are full of toilet paper. Don't readers just pay for it?"

"..."

"..."

"Well, I recently read a few books on the Internet, and they feel good. You can refer to them and imitate them."

"what book?"

""The Stray Cihuamao", this book is good, and it is similar to our subject matter."

"Copying other people's books, isn't it good?"

"What kind of plagiarism, how ugly it is to say, this is called reference and tribute."

"...Okay, I'll take a look when I have time."

"Remember, don't copy everything."

The recording ends here.

"This is a conversation I had with Hu Cang in his study on XX, XX."

Tiansuo Junya handed over the recording pen to the clerk as evidence.

"There are clear contents in the conversation, which can prove that Hucang instructed me to copy the book."

It can be seen that Toshiya Tasho has put in a lot of effort to obtain this evidence.

Generally speaking, the recording evidence in court can prove that it is from a legal source and that it is indeed the person speaking.

For the rest, the judiciary will only judge the most critical parts that can be used as evidence.

However, this recording has such a long time.

Recorded everything that was there or not.

For example, the conversation between the two of them in the previous paragraph is actually completely unnecessary, only the paragraph that mentions the title of the book is enough.

At this time, over to the auditorium.

After the recording was played, it was like a stone thrown into a pond, setting off waves.

"How is it possible that Huhu really asked for a ghostwriter, but also plagiarized?"

"I'm so disappointed, this is actually true!"

"I'm not going to fan him anymore!"

"What a shitty lawyer, actually defending a bad guy!"

"The book he wrote is rubbish, I don't want to read it for a long time!"

Like a star whose house collapsed, the female fans became furious and changed their faces like flipping a book.

Some people were holding a support sign with the words "Tiger and Tiger Must Win", but now they threw the sign away and even spit on it.

"It seems that in order to get revenge, this person not only wants to go to court, but also to completely tarnish Hucang's reputation outside of the lawsuit."

In the auditorium, Xiao Ai analyzed in this way.

"After all, this man's sister was killed by Hu Cang."

Mao Lilan on the side also sighed.

Mao Lilan had already learned the truth about this lawsuit from Gu Meimen before.

"Actually, putting aside those principles, with my personal feelings, I really don't want Hucang to overturn the case in this lawsuit." Mao Lilan shook his head and sighed.

Hearing this, Xiao Ai turned to look at her.

"Sister Xiaolan, you have changed a bit."

"Really? What's wrong with me?"

"Didn't you find out?" Xiao Ai smiled slightly, "When encountering such a thing before, you might say 'if it is Shinichi, what would happen to him', but now you say 'with my personal feelings' '."

"Uh……"

Merlin blinked.

It took a while for him to react, and his face turned red all of a sudden.

"Nonsense, I didn't say anything about Shinichi! He's none of my business!"

Mao Lilan said a little mournful.

Speaking of which, Gu Meimen has complained about this matter to her before.

These two brothers and sisters are really alike.

above the court.

I saw that after listening to the recording, Gu Meimen's mouth twitched slightly.

"Mr. Tiansuo, may I ask if the evidence you mentioned is this?"

"That's right, I think this should be sufficient. Although I was ghostwriting for Hucang, all the plagiarism was done by him!"

Toshiya Tasho raised his head high and looked at Daisuke Torakura whose expression had completely changed in the dock.

Gu Meimen continued to ask: "Mr. Tiansuo, I will confirm with you again and again, is the recording authentic and reliable?"

"Of course, we have checked the voiceprint of the recording. The recording is absolutely authentic, and it is for me speaking in person."

The prosecutor Kutiao Ling on the side took up the conversation.

Afterwards, Jiutiao Lingzheng took out the color palette evidence that Mao Lilan had produced in the first instance of the civil lawsuit of this case, and compared the plagiarized passages in it one by one, proving that there are many similarities in the plots of the two books.

"In summary, this court believes that the defendant's plagiarism is established and should be punished by law!"

Kujo Lingzheng spoke forcefully, appearing very confident.

in court.

The judges confirmed the rationality of the evidence and discussed with each other.

Then, the judge tapped the hammer: "Do the defendant and his attorney have any opinions on the facts of the plaintiff's lawsuit?"

The judge is fine, but the other jurors, when they looked at the defendant, already had some hint of anger in their eyes.

The jurors were all ordinary citizens. Before that, they had heard about Hu Cang's bad deeds on the Internet.

Frankly speaking, Hu Cang, a writer of novels, can only be described as "the scum of the industry".

However, because the case is currently very well-known, after the trial, the judges did not show anything, nor could they favor any side.

But now, if the defendant still can't produce evidence to refute, they will declare that the procuratorate has won the case.

"Clap clap clap!"

At this time, a loud voice suddenly came from the audience.

It was sent by Gu Meimen.

I saw that Gu Meimen had a smile on her face, and at this moment, she started to applaud.

Looking at the expression on Gu Meimen's face, Jiutiao Lingzheng frowned slightly, suddenly feeling something bad in her heart.

Even with such convincing evidence, he found that his opponent still showed no signs of panic.

Could it be that the other party has something behind them?
Or, what kind of hole is this guy digging?
