After hearing what Keisuke Kumiko said, Reiko Kujo couldn't help but smile.
"Kumiko, this lawsuit should be difficult for you to win, right?"
"Oh, it's not that difficult to win. The winner won't be revealed until the end."
Keisuke Kumiko raised an eyebrow and said.
"Don't pretend. I've been your teacher for so long, how could I not understand you? I can tell just from your expression."
Kujo Reiko said directly.
"You are the kind of person who, whenever you encounter a difficult situation, your eyebrows and the eyelid of your right eye will unconsciously twitch at the same time."
Keisuke Kumiko shrugged. "Well, watch me carefully then."
"Kujo... Sister, my brother told me that you were his teacher for two months during his internship. How come you know him so well?"
Ai interjected from the side, and under Kujo Reiko's horrified gaze, she wisely changed the word "auntie."
Reiko Kujo glanced at Ai and then turned to look at Kumiko.
"Did you tell her that?"
"Well, it's just a casual remark, isn't it?"
Keisuke Kumiko took a step back, looking like a dead pig that wasn't afraid of boiling water.
"Hehe."
Reiko Kujo looked at him with a smile.
"How dare you say that? I tutored you for two years, working hard to teach you law. After you passed the judicial exam, I worked hard as your practical training instructor, guiding you from beginning to end. And you just lied to them like that? Are you looking for trouble and have you already forgotten the ruler that hit your palm?"
"Well, I regret paying someone to beat me up. It's probably the only stupid thing I've done in my life."
Seeing that the other party had revealed the truth, Keisuke Kumiko simply tore off his pretense and admitted it directly.
Ai, who was standing there, thought for a moment and suddenly realized.
No wonder in the case of Kogoro's class reunion, Kumiko did such despicable things to Kujo Reiko, such as breaking into the women's restroom and taking advantage of women's menstrual periods, and in the end even said it was personal revenge.
There was a reason why they understood each other so well.
It seems that Kumiko is trying to take revenge on Kujo Reiko, to avenge what the student did to the teacher.
"My opinion of your shameless behavior has reached a new level."
Ai looked at Keisuke Kumiko with drooping eyes.
"I take care of you."
Kumiko rolled his eyes at her.
Speaking of the story of his encounter with Kujo Reiko, it was exactly as Kujo Reiko said.
When he traveled to this world, he spent a lot of effort choosing from a bunch of popular professions and finally decided to study law.
However, studying law is not easy.
The Japanese judicial examination is quite difficult, and there are generally only two paths.
First, you can follow the formal route and study for four years as a university student, then go to law school, and after graduating, you can take the judicial examination.
Second, academic qualifications are not required. You must first pass the "Judicial Preparatory Examination" and then take the judicial examination.
Keisuke Kumiko chose the second option, and he could only choose the second option.
Because his original identity as a time traveler... was a scoundrel and he didn't have any academic qualifications.
However, the judicial preparatory examination is extremely difficult to pass. If a student does not have a specialized teacher to teach them, it will be as difficult as climbing to the sky to pass it by self-study.
At that time, Kumiko accidentally discovered Kujo Reiko through the internet. This strong woman in the original animation seemed to be working part-time as a tutor.
At that time, she seemed to be not yet famous and had not yet received the title of "Madonna of the Fiscal World."
Keisuke Kumiko thought that since she was a powerful character in the original work, she must have a certain level of skill, so it would be right to let her teach.
Thus, the two met at that time and then met again at the Judicial Training Institute.
Up to now, it has gradually developed into an unfortunate relationship between a teacher and a student.
In short, if you want me to do anything for you based on the outcome of this lawsuit, that's impossible.
Kumiko said with a serious face.
Are you kidding me? Asking him to bow down to Kujo Reiko?
Then he wrote this ancient character upside down!
"I don't intend to exchange victory or defeat for you to do things for me."
Kujo Reiko shook her head.
"Besides, this doesn't fit my principles as a prosecutor. A prosecutor cannot gamble with the life of a suspect in prison. This is the professional code of our profession."
"Huh? What do you mean?"
Keisuke Kumiko looked at her with interest.
"It's very simple. I will help you delay this lawsuit and keep it postponed."
Kujo Reiko said with a smile.
Pause.
"If my guess is correct, the real cause of death of the three victims should be an accidental event that was beyond their control."
Keisuke Kumiko nodded, "Did the suspect Asai tell you all this?"
"Yes, I didn't quite believe it at first."
As Kujo Reiko spoke, she took out a folder from the briefcase she was carrying and handed it to Kumiko.
The ancient beauty's door opened and took a look.
Inside was an autopsy report from three years ago.
The subject of the autopsy report was none other than the former village chief of Yueying Island, Isamu Kameyama, who died of a heart attack.
"Everyone around the deceased believed that the direct cause of Kameyama's death was heart failure."
Kujo Reiko said slowly.
"But in fact, after forensic examination, it was discovered that the deceased's body had been covered with scars long before, and the specific manifestations were that his organs had failed and mutated. An organic compound called methamphetamine was extracted from his coagulated blood."
"Methamphetamine, also known as methamphetamine and desoxyephedrine, has the chemical formula C₁₀H₁₅N. It is a potent central nervous system stimulant and the active ingredient in the new type of methamphetamine. It is listed as a first-class psychotropic drug."
Ai immediately said from the side.
Kujo Reiko turned her head and glanced at her, "Your sister, it seems you know a lot about this."
"She often reads some messy knowledge."
Keisuke Kumiko patted Ai on the head and winked at her.
"Children should not interrupt when adults are talking."
Ai rolled her eyes and turned her head away.
Reiko Kujo continued, "After a long history of drug abuse, Kameyama's physical condition was already on the verge of collapse. We also found traces of drugs in his body, proving that he had used them before his death. Therefore, we can conclude that cardiac arrest was only the direct cause of his death, and the real cause of his passing was a consequence of his long-term drug abuse."
"I see."
Keisuke Kumiko nodded.
The information about Reiko Kujo was very useful to him, and he could use it as one of the logical chains in the subsequent court debate.
"And then? What do you mean?"
Kujo Reiko looked at Kumiko and smiled slightly.
"I suppose you and I have the same guess, because I taught you - you also believe that the real cause of death of these three people was actually drug abuse, right?"
Keisuke Kumiko also smiled.
As expected of Reiko Kujo, despite suffering a defeat at his hands, this Madonna of the fiscal world did not live up to her reputation.
