Chapter 3019 Crossing the Bottom Line
The biggest test for the law school is whether they should continue to adhere to the law when their relatives and friends are trapped in self-destruction or when their relatives and friends are in danger. Even relatives and friends may be wronged, and the law cannot give them justice. At this time, can they still adhere to the law?
So Duran arranged everything for Conan, and it depends on whether Conan can withstand it.
"Are you ready? The time to test your learning results has come. First of all, you have to learn to be a dead person. Many big people started as extras. You can't stand up until you shout "over". "Duran arranged the first job for Miyano Akemi, which is to pretend to be a victim, a victim beaten to death by Xiaolan.
This is a very normal school time. Xiaolan is leaving get out of class as usual, and then she encounters the murderer who is rumored to appear nearby and specializes in attacking long-haired girls.
Xiaolan took action and punched the criminal, but she didn't expect to kill him directly.
Xiaolan was stunned. She didn't know that her punching power had reached such a level? Although she often punched people in the past, she never killed anyone.
Of course, although she killed someone, Xiaolan did not run away, but waited for the police to arrive and accept arrest.
"Impossible, my daughter can't kill someone. Although she learned karate, she always pays attention to the degree." Maori Kogoro didn't believe that his daughter would kill someone.
Officer Megure said helplessly: "We will try our best to restore the truth, Maori brother, I hope you can cooperate and don't get excited."
Conan went to investigate the scene, but there was nothing suspicious. The witness also said that the deceased was knocked down by Maori Ran with one punch.
"Now we can only wait for the autopsy report. The worst result is that we can defend her innocence on the grounds of excessive self-defense." As a lawyer, Eri Kisaki knew that there was little they could do at this time.
The forensic doctor had been bribed, and Duran had arranged for Diao Guangdou's forensic doctor to perform the autopsy. The result must be that she was beaten to death, and Xiaolan must be convicted.
In the end, it may be excessive self-defense, but this time it is a test for Conan, so it depends on his reaction.
Conan is trying to investigate. He thinks there may be other causes of death for the deceased, and he doesn't want his childhood sweetheart to be wronged. But he can't find any clues no matter how hard he looks. All the evidence points to her.
There is no way, Conan can only ask Song Ci for help. He still doesn't give up. He thinks the police's forensic doctor is unreliable and hopes that the best forensic doctor can help. At Conan's reminder, Mao Li found Song Ci. Seeing that they had fought side by side before, Song Ci agreed to provide technical support.
However, at this time, the body had been sparked, and Song Ci smelled a strange atmosphere. He also suspected that someone was framing Mao Lilan. But without the body, he couldn't perform an autopsy on the ashes. He could only investigate according to the original autopsy report, and the result was naturally that Mao Lilan killed the victim.
According to normal development, she can only be sent to court.
Conan is desperate. He can't even protect his childhood sweetheart. What kind of detective is he? A certain Chinese chef gave a thumbs up.
Song Ci told them the doubts, but there is no evidence to help Xiaolan now.
"Damn it, who is it?" Maori Kogoro believed that someone had harmed him and implicated his daughter. He never believed that his kind daughter would kill someone from the beginning.
Conan didn't believe it either, but according to the law, Xiaolan must be sent to prison now.
Although Song Ci was helping, there was indeed not enough evidence to prove that the case was framed by someone. Although there were doubts, Xiaolan could not be acquitted.
In the end, they could only go to court and hope to prove Xiaolan's innocence through normal procedures.
Conan was very anxious and helpless.
"Maybe Xiaolan really killed someone by mistake. We all know Xiaolan's strength. You should accept this." Dr. Agasa said.
"Doctor, don't joke." The doctor has been very strange recently. He changed his white clothes into black clothes and became very abnormal. But Conan didn't doubt the doctor. After all, the doctor's change of clothes does not mean that he has become another person.
"But this is the fact. You can't treat the suspect specially just because he is Xiaolan. Usually, you don't treat suspects like this. You are always good at doubting them and then finding evidence to infer the truth. But now Xiaolan's case has some doubts, but the evidence and witnesses are not fake. Even if the murderer's body was cremated in advance, it can't prove that there must be a problem." "Shinichi, this is not like you." Dr. Agasa said. He believed that Kudo Shinichi was a ruthless detective and would never lose his mind like he is now.
Maori has completely lost his mind now, and even wants to break the prison. He absolutely cannot accept his daughter being imprisoned. He is just like Polo, from the legal school to the illegal school.
But Conan is still working hard, and he still has hope in his heart.
Maori is looking for various illegal means. As long as he can make his daughter innocent, he is willing to do anything. And Conan also hopes to rely on the law to clear Xiaolan's name.
Song Ci sighed when he saw Maori's changes.
Conan listened to Dr. Agasa's words and thought of Polo. Polo had been rational all his life, but he chose a different path in "Murder on the Orient Express" and "Curtain".
Conan had never been so helpless. In the past, the law was his solid backing, but now the law not only could not help him, but also wanted to send Xiaolan to prison. The law turned a blind eye to these doubts. For the first time, he felt what it meant to kill himself with the law.
Dr. Agasa's words also described another possibility. Conan was silent. He might only be able to watch his childhood sweetheart go to jail.
At this time, Maori found Diao Guangdou, hoping that he could help his daughter get rid of the crime.
Diao Guangdou said that he could do it, "So you can't be a cold-blooded person like Song Ci. This is good. It is the nature of parents to care about their children. Song Ci's behavior of killing relatives for the sake of justice is against nature. We just need to not go against nature. This is the world. You are not wrong, so there is no need to be humble."
In Diao Guangdou's view, Song Ci is inhumane. Maori Kogoro can change, which means that he is humane, and being humane is right.
So Diao Guangdou will use his connections and say, "Don't worry, the jury will be my people, the judge will be my people, and even the prosecutor will be my people. Your daughter will be acquitted."
This incident was also a huge blow to Xiaolan, but Duran had prepared psychological guidance and would definitely make Xiaolan return to normal.
After learning that Uncle Maori went to Diao Guangdou, Conan was very angry, but he didn't know what to say. He was very conflicted. On the one hand, he wanted to maintain the authority of the law, but on the other hand, he didn't want Xiaolan to go to jail. But normal legal means would only send Xiaolan to jail step by step, and only illegal means could get her off the hook. He couldn't say anything to Uncle Maori, and could only hate himself for being too weak.
"It seems that Conan can't keep his bottom line. After all, there are few people like Song Ci, who really live for death." Duran had to admire people like Song Ci. With the support of others, he seemed more ruthless. But it is such people who can defend the authority of the legal faction and truly make the legal faction gain a foothold.
Polo, Maori, and Conan were all unable to do the law without mercy, and finally compromised with the illegal faction.
