In Detective Conan, you call this just an ordinary lawyer?

Komikado Law Office.

Kensuke Komikado was reviewing information about the Miki Group and Yamagami, which was relevant evidence in the court hearing.

after all....

It's important to know that the Miki Group is considered a large conglomerate in Tokyo.

Its main business is cross-border and domestic financial ecosystem operations.

The death of Miki Group Chairman An Jinyuan had a significant impact in Tokyo.

As for Yamagami, he's just an ordinary otaku in Tokyo, and the difference in their actual social status is enormous.

But it is not important.

According to Kensuke Komikado, their legal significance is equal.

If his client has any problems, or if there are any legal issues that need to be resolved in court, that is his responsibility as the lawyer.

Kensuke Komikado scrutinized the entire process of the case.

The case itself wasn't particularly complicated.

The family on the mountain originally had a little money.

However, after her father passed away, her mother, due to her gullibility, joined a cult and sold all the family's assets, giving them to the cult organization.

Shan Shang had no choice but to drop out of school and work to support his younger sister, Shan Shang Qing, to attend school.

Everything was going well, but then her own mother, in the name of church teachings, decided to use her younger sister as a pretext.

That is, Yamagami Haru, who had just graduated from university, married an older man in the church.

This made Yamazaki completely unable to tolerate his mother, and at the same time, he developed a deep aversion to cult organizations.

Although he had saved his sister on the mountain, he knew in his heart that if his mother continued to follow the cult, he and his sister would never be able to escape its clutches.

He couldn't do anything to change his mother.

He could only start by investigating cults.

So he secretly investigated the cult his mother belonged to.

He didn't know until he investigated. Through his investigation, he discovered that there were many believers in Tokyo, just like his mother, and many families who had been victimized, just like his.

and....

He also discovered that the cult originated from a scheme used by the chairman of the Miki Group to amass wealth.

In an effort to eradicate this cult, Yamagami used his homemade firearms to shoot the chairman of the Miki Group.

Originally, all of this was done in secret, and Shan Shang also fled the scene of the crime.

However, the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, in conjunction with the Mouri Detective Agency, discovered through Conan's investigation that Yamagami was the culprit.

As for the evidence submitted...

Kensuke Komikado glanced at it briefly, smiled slightly, and thought, "Illegally collected evidence? Is that really evidence?"

The judge will not agree with that.

Komikado Kensuke gently raised his head, as if remembering something, and called Yamagami Haru: "Ms. Yamagami Haru, do you have time to meet?"

"It's about your brother's case."

In the coffee shop, Haru Yamagami, wearing a short jacket, a typical girly pleated skirt, and black stockings, sat nervously opposite Kensuke Komikado.

A hint of trepidation appeared on the innocent-looking girl's face.

"Komikado-senpai, is there a problem with my brother's case?"

Haru Yamagami studied law at Waseda University and now works as a lawyer at a law firm.

When she first learned that her brother had gotten into trouble, she originally planned to take on the case herself or ask other senior lawyers in the firm to handle it.

only....

Her senior colleagues at the law firm all told her that they couldn't take the case.

If you want to win the case, you can only go to Kensuke Komikado.

So she found Kensuke Komikado to fight this lawsuit.

She knew that with the famous detective pursuing the truth, her brother might not escape legal judgment, but she still held onto hope.

Haru Yamagami looked at Kensuke Komikado with a tense expression. She didn't want anything to happen to her brother; Kensuke Komikado was her only hope now.

"No problems."

"I asked you to come here so you could contact your mother and see if she could appear in court."

Yamashiro Haru was somewhat taken aback.

"Looking for my mother...?"

"My mother...she's been brainwashed. It's too difficult to get her to testify in court for my brother."

Kensuke Komikado shook his head.

"You don't need to appear in court to testify for your brother. You only need to appear in court, or you can explain to the police department that your mother is also a key witness and ask the police department to find your mother to appear in court."

"This is a very important matter in helping your brother get acquitted."

"But...but Komikado-senpai, what should I do?"

A hint of confusion appeared in Yamagami Haru's eyes.

Komikado Kensuke smiled and handed a business card to Yamagami Haru: "Just contact the person on the card and tell him about your mother."

Haruya Yamagami stared intently at the words on the business card—Mouri Detective Agency. Although somewhat puzzled, she nodded in agreement.

"I understand, Komikado-senpai. I will do as you say."

There are three days left until the trial of the Yamashita case.

When Kogoro Mouri received the email from Haru Yamagami, as a former detective, he immediately realized something: Yamagami's mother might be a breakthrough.

This at least proves Yamagami's motive for committing the crime.

Conan adjusted his glasses: "Uncle Kogoro, this further demonstrates Yamagami's subjective intent in committing the crime."

"We can contact Officer Sato and request that Yamagami's mother appear in court."

After hearing Kogoro Mouri and Conan's suggestion, Ran Mouri frowned slightly: "But don't you think Mr. Yamagami is also somewhat pitiful?"

"Sister Xiaolan, you're too kind. Don't think like that."

"A murderer can be found in the mountains too. As a detective, isn't your duty to find the murderer and bring them to justice?"

Ran Mouri waved her hand: "Alright, alright, I don't want to hear any more of this, Dad. Is that what you think too?"

Kogoro Mouri scratched his head and gave an awkward laugh: "Um... um... I don't know either."

"But if Kensuke Komikado isn't a good lawyer, then the person he hires is probably not a good person either, right? That's a reasonable assumption, isn't it?"

Ran Mouri gave Kogoro Mouri a helpless look: "Dad, how can you think like that? You're a detective, haven't you investigated whether Yamazaki is a good person or not?"

Kogoro Mouri chuckled twice: "Ran, you don't understand detective stuff. Anyway, I've already decided to tell Officer Sato about this."

"Whatever you want."

Ran Mouri stormed off from the detective agency.

Conan watched Ran Mouri's retreating figure, gently shaking his head. Thinking like Shinichi Kudo, he silently thought, "Ran is still too kind."
