"Ms. Dai... ah no, it's Lawyer (Mr.) Dai. Can I ask you a question?"
Yan Kai said to Dai Machiko.
Before answering Yan Kai, Dai Machiko straightened her back and sat upright, and then said to Yan Kai: "Classmate Yan Kai, feel free to ask questions!"
Yan Kai calls Dai Machiko "lawyer", so Dai Machiko must correct her posture, because she is now answering Yan Kai's question as a "lawyer".
"Lawyer Dai, why do you want to defend your client?"
Yan Kai asked Dai Zhenzhizi.
"Of course it's because he is innocent. I can't watch an innocent man bear the responsibility that he doesn't deserve!"
Machiko Dai said very seriously.
The case has been lost. It can be said that Tsubokura's matter has little to do with her anymore. Even Tsubokura himself has given up. It was Machiko Dai who constantly encouraged him, gave him hope, and gave him the courage to continue the appeal.
"Okay, then let me ask you another question. If one day, you need to defend a person who has committed a heinous crime..."
"I will not defend those bad people. I am a lawyer to uphold legal justice, so I will not be the lawyer for those bad people!"
Machiko Dai interrupted Yan Kai's words fiercely, and moved her buttocks closer to Yan Kai excitedly. Yan Kai could only move his butt a little more, and continued to keep distance from Machiko Dai.
Hey, I almost got sprayed by her saliva again! Why is this person so easily excited!
"Lawyer Dai, please answer me, what do you think the mission of a lawyer is?"
Yan Kai asked Dai Machiko again.
"Of course it is to maintain judicial justice! Protect those vulnerable groups!"
Dai Machiko said enthusiastically.
Yan Kai held his forehead, he didn't know how to communicate with such a passionate person.
"Uh... protect the rights and interests of the parties involved?"
Machiko Dai thought for a while and said, this is what the lawyers at Miki Law Firm often say.
"If it is just to protect the rights and interests of the client, there is no difference between such a lawyer and the client's dog." Yan Kai shook his head.
"Then what do you think the mission of a lawyer is?"
Dai Machiko looked at Yan Kai doubtfully.
"The law clearly states that lawyers should protect the legitimate rights and interests of the client!"
Yan Kai deliberately emphasized the word "legal" when he said it.
Dai Machiko also understood the meaning of Yan Kai's words. She nodded hurriedly and said: "Classmate Yan Kai, you are right! I didn't expect that at your young age, your understanding of the law is better than that of me who passed the law exam and obtained a lawyer's certificate. The lawyer is still very experienced!"
"Okay."
Yan Kai said modestly.
There is no way. For martial artists living in this era of rule of law (at least martial artists from the Central Plains), "Criminal Law" is a compulsory course, and the relevant regulations on "justifiable defense" are even required to be recited verbatim. Because of his age, Yan Kai still I need to learn more about the "Law on the Protection of Minors". I really don't believe it if I don't know anything about the law.
After nodding, Machiko Dai was a little confused: "Classmate Yan Kai, I am very grateful to you for waking me up, but why are you telling me this?"
"What I mean is, Lawyer Dai, you just said that you believed that the client was innocent, so you defended the client. This is wrong. The reason for your defense should be to confirm that his legitimate rights and interests have been violated and that he was arrested by the police. He used violence to force a confession and made a confession against his will, so defending him is what an upright lawyer should do!"
Yan Kai said to Dai Machiko.
Machiko Dai suddenly understood.
Indeed, combined with what Yan Kai said just now, fighting for Pingcang's legal rights and proving that his confession was against his will is what a lawyer should really do, instead of blindly defending Pingcang just because he is pitiful.
"Similarly, when a bad person's legitimate rights and interests are violated, as a lawyer, you also have the obligation to defend the bad person."
Yan Kai changed the subject.
As soon as Yan Kai said that he should defend the bad guys, Dai Machiko immediately became resistant.
She is such a person who clearly loves and hates and hates evil very much. Otherwise, she would not have spent so much effort to pass the law exam and become a lawyer.
"For example, when the Far East Tribunal tried war criminals, those war criminals committed extremely heinous crimes, and hundreds, thousands or even tens of thousands of innocent people died directly or indirectly at their hands. Logically speaking, it would be reasonable to shoot three of them with Gatling. Even a minute was not an exaggeration, but the Allies still insisted on hiring lawyers for them, and those lawyers tried their best to defend them. Are their defenses for those heinous war criminals? No, they are for the law. Fairness! Fairness is not afraid of being questioned. Precisely because those war criminals were defended by lawyers, the result of that trial was fair."
"Of course those war criminals must die, but what crimes they committed and why they deserved to die need to be listed one by one. According to our words in the Central Plains, we cannot punish them without teaching. Those war criminals must be punished in a canonical manner and made known to the world. Only in this way can we It is the greatest comfort to the souls of the innocent people who were killed by war criminals!"
Yan Kai's words made Dai Machiko stand in awe.
The word "justice" transcends good and evil, and Dai Machiko has been obsessed with good and evil until just now, and her understanding of the law is indeed somewhat superficial.
"Of course, there are also some war criminals who have not been tried at all. After some exchange of benefits, they simply walk free."
Yan Kai added, Dai Machiko swallowed her saliva, wanting to say something but couldn't.
The war criminals who were not tried by the Far East Tribunal should all be dead now, but their descendants are still active in Japan's political arena, and they have the power to influence Japan, which is not something she, a small lawyer, can criticize.
"Sorry, it's a bit far-fetched."
Yan Kai pushed up his glasses and said to Dai Machiko.
Seeing Dai Machiko's overly upright character, she couldn't help but talk too much.
"No, no, I'm very grateful for what you said to me. It also made me understand the responsibilities of my profession better. Thank you (Arigado)!"
Machiko Dai bowed to Yan Kai sincerely.
"You're welcome."
Yan Kai smiled and nodded, then thought of something and said to Machiko Dai: "Ah, by the way, Miss Dai, I'm going to visit a former detective later. Are you interested in accompanying me? If it's him. , you can discuss the case with him, and he may be able to help you."
"Classmate Yan Kai, do you know the detective? That's great, please be sure to take me with you!"
Dai Machiko moved a little closer to Yan Kai, held Yan Kai's hand and said very excitedly.
When she first took over the Tsubokura case, she wanted to go there and find detectives to help solve the case. After all, before the "Metropolitan Police Department", those detectives who always happened to appear near the crime scene were the main force in solving the case, and the police were more Such as group background board and tool man.
But after Machiko Dai approached the detectives, they all immediately shook their heads and refused when they heard that the case had been closed by the police and filed by the prosecutor's office.
In Japanese criminal cases, once prosecuted by the prosecutor, the plaintiff's chance of being found guilty in court is as high as 99.9%. Before a criminal case is prosecuted, the witnesses, physical evidence, and on-site evidence are all complete. It can be said that the evidence is ironclad, so The probability of a criminal case being reversed is extremely low, with a probability of one in a thousand being enough to scare away all lawyers.
Of course, this is not actually the reason why the detectives are unwilling to take the case. They are actually still afraid of the exorcist lady.
Yakushiji Ryoko has always been known as the "Queen of the Metropolitan Police Department." Anyone who overturns the case that the Metropolitan Police Department has concluded is slapping the Metropolitan Police Department in the face. If you dare to slap Yakushiji Ryoko's face, you should be prepared to be slapped to death by Yakushiji Ryoko!
The detectives who are currently working in Tokyo have to be careful to avoid the Metropolitan Police Department every time they take a case, let alone confront the Metropolitan Police Department, even if the three of them have the courage!
However, Machiko Dai is a person who never looks back after breaking through the wall. She believes that there will always be righteous detectives who are not afraid of the "power" of the Metropolitan Police Department and dare to confront the Metropolitan Police Department, so when Yan Kai said he was going to visit (Previously) When working as a detective, Machiko Dai suddenly became more determined to not give up, and planned to follow Yan Kai to consult with the detective.
"Don't worry, he is currently at work. We have to wait until he gets off work before we can easily find him."
Yan Kai took his hand out of Dai Machiko's hand without leaving any trace, and then moved his body a little more.
"Working? Detectives still have to work?"
Machiko Dai asked doubtfully.
In her opinion, shouldn't detectives be like vagrants, free at all times? If you’re not traveling or shopping, or attending various high-end banquets, why do you still have to go to work?
(Note: The detectives Machiko Dai thinks of are those who specialize in solving all kinds of unsolved cases and strange cases, not the kind of private detectives who secretly film and follow.)
"Well……"
Why do you make the detective look like a vagrant?
Yan Kaixin thought this, but still explained: "The person I'm talking about was a detective in high school, but he gave up detective activities after graduating from high school. Now he is just an ordinary office worker, but he has experienced many bizarre experiences. case, I think his detective ability is as good as any famous detective."
Compared with other detectives, Kindaichi is the most down-to-earth detective Yan Kai has ever seen. At least he is willing to work seriously and accept the poison of society...baptism. Although he looks a bit hopeless, he seems the most real. As for the others, The detective... To be honest, Yan Kai seems to be somewhat ignorant of the sufferings of the people, and likes to stand on the highest moral point and defecate in front of others.
"That's it!" Dai Machiko nodded, and then approached Yan Kai again, "So, Yan Kai, when will we... Oops!"
Dai Machiko's buttocks were empty and she sat heavily on the ground. The "ouch" was her cry of pain.
What's going on?
A little confused, Machiko Dai looked at Yan Kai, only to find that Yan Kai's body maintained a sitting position, but there was no support at all under his buttocks. That is to say, he was sitting on the legendary "air chair"!
Seeing Machiko Dai sitting on the ground, Yan Kai straightened up and pulled Machiko Dai up from the ground: "Miss Dai, are you okay?"
Dai Machiko stood up without moving her expression, nodded to Yan Kai and said, "It's okay, it's okay."
At this time, as long as you don't show an embarrassed expression, the embarrassing thing will pass!
…………………………
"You want me to help solve the case? Don't do it, don't do it, don't do it! I don't want to have anything to do with the case anymore!"
After get off work, Kindaichi had just returned to the apartment one by one, when Yan Kai and Dai Machiko came to the door at the right time.
Originally, Kindaichi felt a little pleased when he saw a young and beautiful short-haired beauty coming to him, but after hearing Machiko Dai finish explaining the case and explaining her purpose, Kindaichi's head shook like a rattle again.
He Yankai said that the cases he had experienced before were already Kinda Yiyi's biggest concession, and he really didn't want to be exposed to any more cases.
"Mr. Kindaichi, please, this is about the life of an innocent young man. Can you bear to see him carry the charge of a murderer for the rest of his life?"
Machiko Dai said very excitedly.
Although Tsubokura was only sentenced to ten years in prison, he is only in his twenties now. At his age, he will be around thirty even if he is released. If he behaves well in prison, he may be able to advance a few years earlier. After he came out, he still had a long life.
However, Japan is a society that attaches great importance to credibility. Although people with criminal records, especially those who have been released from prison after killing others, are still alive, they are almost equivalent to death in society. Not to mention finding a job, it is difficult to even find a place to live. There is no one If a housing agency is willing to accept a tenant who has killed someone, this will cause uneasiness among the surrounding tenants. Even if there is one, the deposit and rent of the house will definitely be much higher than others.
Pingcang's family was not wealthy to begin with, and he worked in a car wash shop to save money for college entrance exams. If he really spent ten years in prison, even if he was still young after being released, he would have no hope in this life. They can only wallow at the bottom of society, living a life of today and no tomorrow.
How could a sympathetic person like Dai Machiko bear to watch a young man like Tsubokura fall into such hell, so she wanted to get Tsubokura off the hook at all costs.
But Kindaichi also had a very tough attitude. He drove Machiko Dai out abruptly and warned Machiko Dai that he would call the police if she harassed him again.
Seeing Kindaichi and even the police moving out, Machiko Dai, as a lawyer, had no choice but to leave even if she was unwilling to do so, but she still would not give up Tsubokura.
After Kindaichi closed the door, Yan Kai, who was still in Kindaichi's room, said to Kindaichi: "Mr. Kindaichi, you seem to..."
Yan Kai organized his words and then continued: "You don't seem to think Miss Dai's client is innocent?"
Although Kindaichi said that he no longer wanted to be involved in the case, he actually drove her away just now after listening to Machiko Dai's description of the case. It was not so much that Kindaichi did not want to be associated with the case anymore, but that it was because Kindaichi heard it. There was a problem with the case, and then they started chasing people away on the grounds that they didn't want to be involved in the case.
Kindaichi sighed helplessly: "You kid, you are very perceptive! Well, I did hear some problems. The man named Tsubokura is probably the real murderer..."
