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

Tokyo Beika Police Station.

After experiencing the Yamagami case, Conan was disheartened for a while.

But after being comforted by Kogoro Mouri, he quickly returned to his original state.

When they heard that the Tokyo Beika Police Station had commissioned the Mori Detective Agency, they immediately perked up.

They are currently handling a case of attempted murder.

It's a small case.

But the victim was just a sophomore at the prestigious University of Tokyo.

After receiving the report, the Beika Police Station immediately launched an investigation and contacted and commissioned Kogoro Mouri to conduct the investigation.

Kogoro Mouri himself was also holding back his anger because of Yamagami's case.

Unexpectedly, Megure Juzo, the head of the Major Crimes Unit at the Beika Police Station, approached him and asked him to investigate a case involving a second-year university student who was assaulted in his home.

This helped him regain his spirits considerably.

"Haha, I'm sure I can solve this case."

Kogoro Mouri laughed heartily inside the police station as he listened to Inspector Megure explain the case.

The process of the case was very simple.

A sophomore rented a house off-campus, and everything seemed normal.

But a few days ago, I was suddenly attacked.

The other party neither assaulted the sophomore female student nor intended to rob her; instead, they directly wanted to kill her.

but....

In the end, the killer did not kill the female student.

The female student immediately reported the incident to the police, and the case was taken to the Beika Police Station, where it caught the attention of Inspector Megure.

Everyone knows that Mika has a high criminal case rate, and there are often some special criminal cases, such as serial murders.

The second-year female student is named Kataoka Yumi. According to her description, she has been...

She has not had any other contact with outsiders, nor has she had any in-depth communication with other boys. Similarly, she has no ardent suitors.

This ruled out some of the suspects.

However, they couldn't make any progress, so they brought in Kogoro Mouri and Conan.

Inside the police station, Conan looked at Kataoka Yumi and asked her a question.

"Yumi-neechan, could you tell me about your past experiences?"

Kataoka Yumi lowered her head: "I don't have much experience before. I just want to find this murderer. I'm afraid he will continue to look for me."

Conan raised an eyebrow slightly: "Could you then describe the events of the case in more detail?"

Kataoka Yumi thought for a moment before speaking, "After class, I went straight back to my rented apartment."

"At the door of the room, I was about to open it when the other person grabbed my neck and tried to strangle me."

"I can't breathe."

He has fallen into a coma.

"I vaguely heard the other person say that I was dead, and then they left in a hurry. Later, I came to my senses and then quickly called the police."

...

Conan stared at Yumi Kataoka: "So, do you have anyone you suspect?"

Kataoka Yumi shook her head: "No."

But after Kataoka Yumi finished speaking, Conan adjusted his glasses and shook his head.

"Yumi-neechan, you're lying. You clearly know who the murderer is."

"But you don't dare to say it, do you?"

Kataoka Yumi looked somewhat flustered, but her behavior already implied that Conan was right.

At this moment, Inspector Megure showed an expression of sudden realization.

"No wonder we couldn't find the killer no matter how we investigated. We initially thought there was a mistake in our investigation."

"I never imagined that you, Yumi-san, had been hiding your past!"

"Ms. Yumi, please explain the specifics of the matter more clearly, otherwise, the Beika Police Station may not be able to help you."

Kataoka Yumi seemed slightly nervous upon hearing Inspector Megure's last words, but she continued speaking.

"I have a guess, but I can't be sure."

"He was a friend I made in high school, and also the one who hurt me later—his name is Takahashi Issho."

Takahashi smiled...

Upon hearing the name, Inspector Megure murmured, "This name sounds somewhat familiar."

However, he couldn't recall who this Takahashi Issho was at all, and Inspector Megure shook his head.

"Never mind that, let's find the person and bring them back to the police station for questioning and investigation first."

"This person is very likely involved in murder."

"Conan, do you want to come with us?"

"Sure, Inspector Megure, but I suggest you prepare a search warrant in advance to facilitate finding evidence. Otherwise, it would be a violation of the law and could cause some trouble later."

Inspector Megure laughed twice: "Conan, you little rascal, why are you thinking about legal matters now?"

Conan took a deep breath, and the image of Kensuke Komikado appeared in his mind.

"Because someone has shown me with facts that legal procedures are very important."

.......

Komekado Law Firm.

Haru Yamagami agreed to let Kensuke Komikado work at Komikado's law firm, which made Kensuke Komikado feel much more relaxed.

After all, in the past, Komekado Law Firm only had him as the sole lawyer, and he would sometimes be too busy to handle everything.

With Haru Yamagami joining the team, he won't have to deal with so many things at the law firm anymore.

More importantly, the lawyer fees that Yamagami Haru owed him were now settled, and there was no longer any worry about the difficulty in recovering these fees.

Kensuke Komikado informed Haru Yamagami about the law firm's matters.

After seeing off Haru Yamagami, Kensuke Komikado encountered Miwako Sato, a policewoman from the National Police Agency, at the entrance of his law firm.

We can't say we met.

Instead, it is what we see.

Miwako Sato, dressed in a police uniform, stood not far from the law firm, glancing in its direction from time to time.

"Officer Sato, your presence here is negatively impacting the experience for my law firm's clients."

Kensuke Komikado said jokingly.

Sato Miwako crossed her arms and said, "I was just passing by, how could I possibly affect the experience of your law firm's clients?"

"Just passing by?"

"right."

"Okay, then I'll watch you leave."

Komekado Kensuke's lips curled up, leaving Sato Miwako somewhat bewildered.

She came to see Kensuke Komikado, but there were some things she was too embarrassed to say.

Actually.

Miwako Sato and Kensuke Komikado have had quite a few dealings.

She knew that although Kensuke Komikado often helped criminals escape legal punishment, he had a bottom line, and the law was his bottom line.

Sometimes she really disliked Kensuke Komikado, but other times she also admired him.

For example, this time.

Kensuke Komikado helped Yamagami get away with his crime. At first, she thought that Kensuke Komikado was just helping criminals get away with their crimes again.

But I later realized that it's not just the victims who need the law to protect them; the perpetrators do too.

Sato Miwako looked at Komikado Kensuke, calmed herself down, and then said, "That's right, I came to see you, Attorney Komikado."

"Looking for me?"

"right."

"What do you need me for?"

"Can we discuss this at the law firm?"

Noticing Sato Miwako's expression, Komikado Kensuke nodded: "Okay."
