Conan's Victory is Justice

Chapter 176 Question: Yusaku Kudo’s mystery novels make people imitate killing people. Is there abetting crime?

"Let's take a closer look at the plagiarized passages."

Mao Lilan pointed to the document on the whiteboard.

At this time, she gradually entered the state, and her speech gradually became fluent.

"This paragraph was written by our party, the original author."

"'It was very cold, the north wind was blowing, the poor civet cat was already skinny and skinny, it had to give up the haystack it had found temporarily to avoid the cold, and ran to the freezing road to find food .'"

"And this paragraph was written by the defendant Daisuke Torakura."

"'It was so cold that the black cat sneezed, and the cold wind was blowing. The shivering black cat was growling with hunger. It had to give up the warm hay and ran out of the house to find something to eat. thing.'"

"The content and context of these two paragraphs are almost exactly the same, but with a slight modification of the grammar paragraph, it becomes my own. This kind of plagiarism is purely laundering the text. It is really abhorrent. Put it in your eyes!"

At the end, Mao Lilan's voice became louder and louder, and she was very emotional.

It can be seen that the horns on her head have been erected, and she has started to twist around again, looking very angry.

"Little girl, you can't come here just by opening your mouth."

Unlike Mao Lilan's angry mood, the opposing lawyer looked relaxed.

"About the plaintiff's novel and our client's novel, in terms of subject matter, both are animal subjects, and there is a certain degree of similarity. As we all know, the behavior of animals is very monotonous in the eyes of humans. If we only rely on some natural And hunting behavior, it is ridiculous to conclude that there is plagiarism in the novel!"

"Can't this be called plagiarism? These two passages look exactly the same!"

Mao Lilan slapped the table angrily, making a loud noise.

"Little girl, didn't you hear just now?"

The defendant's lawyer was obviously very arrogant and completely ignored the other party's plagiarism accusation. "

"Our point of view has already been expounded. The similar paragraphs are due to the subject matter! The two novels are both about animals, and there is a certain degree of similarity in the behavior of the protagonists. It is normal to have some sense of déjà vu. What you said does not constitute evidence at all. Little girl, I still advise you, you should go back and read more books at your age, the law is not a child's play, and the court is not a place where teenagers can enter!"

Facing the ridicule of the enemy lawyer, Mao Lilan immediately said angrily: "I didn't take the law as a child's play. I have learned from my mother for a long time!"

As soon as the latter sentence "Mom" came out, there was another burst of laughter in the court.

The one who laughed the loudest was Gu Meimen in the auditorium.

He even stood up and clapped her hands loudly.

Mao Lilan blinked, and then realized that she shouldn't have said that, and her face turned red immediately.

"It just opened my eyes!"

Before the judge knocked on the hammer, Gu Meimen immediately sat down again and taunted her.

"Look at this silly, white and sweet person, who still wants to be a lawyer with this personality? Isn't this just being led by the nose?"

"You are here again."

Xiao Ai rolled her eyes.

"Since you think she is not suitable to be a lawyer, why did you tell her to start studying civil law?"

"Can't I have some fun?" Gu Meimen rolled her eyes, "The most important thing about being a lawyer is to make a calm judgment. In court, you must be calm and calm, otherwise the other party will induce you with random words. I got caught, just like she was just now, I learned everything I learned from my mother, isn't it funny?"

"Ok."

Xiao Ai glanced at Mao Lilan who was blushing in the courtroom.

"However, this is her first lawsuit after all. You can't ask too much from a newcomer."

"I mean, she's too serious, or too serious."

Gu Meimen shook her head and said so.

"Did I tell you before? Civil lawsuits are different from criminal lawsuits. There will be more cases of reconciliation between the two parties."

"You should have heard of it too, right? A few days ago, Daisuke Hucang went to the plaintiff and said that he wanted peace talks. As a result, Mao Lilan, as an agent, refused without even thinking about it, saying that he must The lawsuit is over."

"In today's society, there are tact and compromise everywhere. Many lawsuits don't even need to be fought. It's fine for the two parties to settle the matter in private. It's good for you, me and him to keep the matter down and give a sum of money to seal it casually."

"Do you think that someone with serious personality like Mao Lilan will be welcomed as a lawyer in the future?"

Hearing this, Xiao Ai turned her head and stared at Gu Meimen carefully.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Gu Meimen raised her eyebrows, "Is there something wrong with what I said? Or, do you think Mao Lilan is suitable to be a lawyer?"

Xiao Ai withdrew her gaze, and the corners of her mouth slightly curled up: "There's nothing wrong, quite right."

under.

The referee still needs to go ahead.

"The judgment of plagiarism in novels must be distinguished from the form."

Unlike criminal law, civil law has a very broad scope.

Generally speaking, each lawyer will only have their own specialties in different fields.

As Daisuke Torakura's counsel, the opposing lawyer is very obvious, and he is quite professional in copyright law.

"Generally speaking, even if a plot or a technique has similar parts, it can only be called reference."

"For example, Yusaku Kudo, the most famous mystery novelist in the world today, has used fishing lines, piano lines, cyanide and other such props many times in his own mystery novels."

"If I were to write a mystery novel as well, I would also design a plot where the criminal would use fishing lines to commit crimes."

"Excuse me, can I count it as plagiarism?"

There was a murmur in the courtroom.

People in the auditorium nodded their heads.

Daisuke Hukura's lawyer, the examples he gave are very informative.

Yusaku Kudo is the most famous mystery novelist in the world. The reason why he is so popular is mainly because his novels are uniquely creative.

After he became popular, some people naturally began to imitate his works.

As a result, many schools have been born, such as the "cyanide school", "fishing line school" and so on - because the criminal methods in his novels are all written in this way.

Not to mention the creation of novels, even many criminals in life have begun to imitate the techniques in his novels to commit crimes and kill people.

Those fishing lines, piano lines, cyanide, etc. are basically learned from his novels.

"I think Yusaku Kudo should be the first to be arrested. His novels are quite harmful."

As soon as this topic was mentioned, Xiao Ai couldn't help but complain.

"I've read his novels, and I've seen many crime cases. Many people commit crimes and kill people in exactly the same way as in his novels. He is a public figure, and he is a very famous person who has a huge impact on society. , sue him for instigating a crime, he shouldn’t be able to run away, right?”
