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

After announcing the start of the court session, Inada Hanki turned his attention to the prosecutor's seat.

"In this trial, the prosecutor's office has charged Takahashi Issho with murder. We would like the prosecutor to describe the specific details of his crime."

"Yes, Chief Referee."

After saying that, Daio Tano looked up at Kensuke Komikado.

Kensuke Komikado noticed Daio Tano's gaze and returned it with a mocking smile.

Tano Daiki's expression froze instantly, and a hint of anger appeared on his rugged face.

He had heard of lawyer Kensuke Komikado before, but never had a good impression of him.

He is a prosecutor.

Kensuke Komikado's repeated acquittals of criminals are a clear slap in the face to the prosecutors.

After all, it takes a considerable amount of time for the police department and the prosecutor's office to compile evidence.

In the past, after the evidence was compiled and submitted to the court, the criminal members would be convicted.

But what about Kensuke Komikado?

These criminals were exonerated, and in multiple cases at that.

This made Daio Tano dislike Kensuke Komikado very much.

Daio Tano had made ample preparations before this trial.

A lawyer with a 100% win rate?

This time, he's going to drag this lawyer, who has a 100% winning rate, off the stage.

After calming down, Daio Tano ignored Kensuke Komikado's continued provocations and began to state the crimes he had committed in prosecuting Issho Takahashi.

"Based on the evidence, testimonies, and perspectives provided by the victim, provided by the Beika Police Station."

"The prosecutor's office is indicting the defendant, Takahashi Issho, on attempted murder in accordance with Articles 199 and 203 of the Criminal Code."

"Considering that the defendant, Takahashi Issho, had previously committed rape, and after being released from prison, he showed no remorse and even attempted to kill his former victim."

"This constitutes an established fact of attempted murder."

"Currently, there is evidence and testimony, and Takahashi Issho has already confessed."

"The prosecutor's office believes that individuals who knowingly break the law and intend to retaliate against others should be severely punished. The prosecutor's office requests that Takahashi Issho be sentenced to ten years in prison."

After finishing speaking, Da Xiong looked up at the chief referee.

After listening to Tano Daio's account, Inada Hanji lowered his head and began organizing the documents.

Daio Tano's statement is consistent with the description in the materials.

Under normal circumstances, Takahashi Issho's attempted murder would certainly be sentenced to ten years in prison.

Although he is the chief judge, the main requirement for this trial is to have a consistent view with the other judges.

and so.

We definitely need to hear the defendant's defense lawyer's opinion on the case.

"Defense attorney for defendant Kazuo Takahashi, the prosecutor has stated that your client committed attempted murder."

And based on the finding that your client acted with intent to retaliate, it is recommended that the sentence be increased.

"Do you have anything to refute in this regard?"

Inada Hanuka looked at Komikado Kensuke.

Kensuke Komikado raised his hand: "Yes."

"What are the specific points of your rebuttal?"

"I believe that Takahashi Issho did commit attempted murder, but not under Article 203 of the Criminal Code, but under Article 43 of the Criminal Code."

Daio Tano squinted: "Applies to Article 43 of the Criminal Code?"

"Do you know that Article 43 of the Criminal Code only applies if Takahashi Issho voluntarily stops?"

"Takahashi Issei's subjective intention was indeed to kill Kataoka Yumi, but he ran away because of his fear and cowardice."

"This kind of attempted murder, which doesn't fall under the category of intentional act, is more applicable to Article 203 of the Criminal Code regarding attempted murder. As Takahashi Issho's lawyer, aren't you aware of this?"

"I know very well."

Kensuke Komikado replied.

"But I have a question I'd like to ask the prosecutor."

"What's the problem?"

"Did I run away because of my own fear and cowardice? Does that count as a matter of my own will?"

"This..." Daio Tano paused, "belongs to..."

"Since it falls under this category, in this case, it can be seen that Takahashi Issei abandoned the attempt to kill Kataoka Yumi due to his own will, thus suspending the crime. What's wrong with that?"

Kensuke Komikado initiated his inquiry.

The reason he proposed that Takahashi Issho should be subject to Article 43 of the Criminal Code is—

Articles 203 and 43 of the Criminal Law both pertain to attempted murder, but their application scenarios differ.

The former—attempted murder under Article 203 of the Criminal Law—is mainly due to other unexpected circumstances.

For example, if someone is killed in self-defense during the act of murder, they cannot continue the killing.

Or, in other words, the act of killing was prevented by others, thus preventing the person from being killed.

In summary, he wanted to kill someone, but due to other unexpected factors, he didn't manage to kill them.

The applicable sentences are mainly for imprisonment of five years or more.

Article 43 of the Criminal Law addresses attempted murder caused by the perpetrator's own will ceasing.

The sentence is usually less than three years, and criminal punishment may even be waived for other reasons.

This is why the Komekado Research Institute emphasized that Takahashi Issho is subject to Article 43 of the Criminal Code.

"But... Takahashi Issho was seeking revenge. He intentionally wanted to take revenge on the victims from back then, which is enough to prove the heinousness of his crime."

Daio Tano's definitive statement drew ridicule from Kensuke Komikado.

"revenge?"

Why did Takahashi Issho seek revenge against Kataoka Yumi?

"Ms. Yumi, could you please answer this question?"

Kensuke Komikado stared directly at Yumi Kataoka, who was sitting behind Daio Tano.

Kataoka Yumi was startled and flustered by the sudden question, and didn't know what to do.

Inspector Megure gently patted Yumi Kataoka's shoulder and whispered.

"Don't worry, that criminal won't hurt you again."

Then, Inspector Megure looked at Kensuke Komikado and answered loudly.

"Ms. Yumi was assaulted, and she dared to speak out, which ruined Takahashi Issho's career."

"He was even imprisoned."

After being released from prison, Takahashi Issho couldn't find a job and suffered from people's strange looks. Unable to bear the blow, he felt that all of this was caused by Miss Mi's courage to speak out.

So, given these circumstances, they found Ms. Yumi and launched a retaliatory attack. What's so hard to answer about that?

"Oh?"

Komi Yoshisuke raised the corners of her mouth slightly.

"I'd like to ask Inspector Megure, is this what Kataoka Yumi told you, or is this your own belief?"

"You should know that in court, casual remarks can be taken as testimony."

However, if it's wrong, it will be punished by law.

"Inspector Megure, are you willing to pay the price for your words?"
