Chapter 296 A lawyer, not a god

The protagonist of "Victory is Justice", Komemon Kensuke, is a lawyer with a 100% winning rate...

When he saw this sentence, Takeda Toru smiled. This must be nonsense. A 100% winning rate... Unless you have only fought single-digit cases, it is possible to maintain it.

The Japanese prosecutors, who are invincible in the world, have a winning rate of only 99%.

"But looking at the style of this drama...it's also the kind of comedy drama that's not too serious. It's probably a comedy disguised as a legal drama, so there's no need to worry too much about authenticity." Takeda Toru muttered.

Coincidentally, the first case that appeared in the drama was a lawsuit with the prosecutor's office.

"A lawyer with a 100% winning rate collides with a prosecutor's office with a 99% winning rate...who will win..."

At this time, the fried noodles were served, and Toru Takeda broke open his chopsticks and started eating.

The innocent and kind-hearted trainee lawyer Machiko Dai (played by Aoi Kono) is a person who believes that the duty of the law is to uphold fairness and justice, and she took over a murder case.

The deceased in the case was a gas station employee, and the biggest suspect was his subordinate who had been insulted and even threatened to be fired.

"Then what's the truth?" Dai Machiko asked.

Seeing this, Toru Takeda looked at the TV on the other side. What a coincidence. The protagonist of "The Pioneer Lawyer" also defended a suspect in a murder case and litigated with the prosecutor's office.

Just because I feel the suspect is pitiful, I think he must be innocent, and even overturn the existing confession... To a certain extent, Machiko Dai and the old police officer are the same, they both use intuition to solve the case.

However, it was impossible for Komemon Kensuke to help a poor man who could not afford the money to litigate, so he offered a high price of 30 million yen for legal fees. In order to help an innocent young man in jail, Machiko Dai mortgaged the land of her hometown and put 3,000 yen

Wan fell in front of Gu Meimen Yansuke.

Even in cases where the parties have given up, the lawyer seems to have no need to intervene. The boss also persuaded Machiko Dai to give up the case, but Machiko Dai did not give up based on her sense of justice.

Don't you want to find the real culprit? Instead, just really try to find your client. It's the police's business to find the real culprit...

And the intuition of an experienced police officer is definitely much more accurate than that of a rookie lawyer.

And Machiko Dai showed a confused expression. Yes, why did she firmly believe that this child must be innocent from the beginning? Is it just because he cried in front of her?

"We are lawyers, not gods..." Toru Takeda muttered this sentence silently.

"Don't be too narcissistic. We are lawyers, not gods." Gu Meimen replied.

She believed that the defendant was unjustly accused and only confessed after being brutally interrogated by the police. Under the prompts of others, Machiko Dai learned that there was an invincible lawyer, so she planned to seek help from that lawyer.

The police arrested the suspect, and after a rigorous interrogation by the police, he admitted the fact of his murder. The defendant almost lost his fighting spirit and no longer wanted to commit the crime.

The protagonists of the two dramas "Justice Is Victory" and "The Pioneer Lawyer" will try their best to prove that their clients are innocent in the following time.

The protagonist of "Pioneering Lawyer" is a persistent and passionate person, which is more in line with the traditional protagonist image, and the way he helps the defendant get rid of his identity as a murderer is to find the real murderer.

At this time, Komemon Kensuke came over. Dai Machiko asked Komemon if he was really innocent. Komemon said that whether he committed suicide or not had nothing to do with him. The prosecutor's office had insufficient evidence, so he had to

Let him go, it's that simple. This is the law.

As for "Pioneer Lawyer", the protagonist finally found key evidence to prove the defendant's innocence. It turned out that the deceased was terminally ill, but he deeply hated the defendant, so he planned to use his own death to drag the defendant into the crime.

Hell—isn’t this the way to go in mystery dramas?

In "Victory is Justice", although Kensuke Komemon defeated the old policeman in court and helped the defendant to clear his name, at this time in the restaurant, someone began to ask in a low voice: "Aren't you looking for the murderer?"

But he couldn't help but feel a little nervous in his heart, because this is a TV series after all. There is a murder case, but the identity of the real murderer is not revealed. Isn't this deliberately making people uncomfortable?

However, at this moment, "Justice is Victory" had a high-energy reversal——

The plot was still being discussed in the restaurant, and the doubts about the protagonist not catching the real murderer disappeared instantly. Two seconds later, several diners made sounds of realization.

"Then wouldn't Kono-chan become an accomplice?"

This basically declared the failure of the police. In the end, the court's verdict came down and the defendant was acquitted. Machiko Dai excitedly ran to the door of the court and declared victory to the media friends who followed the case. She was so excited that tears filled her eyes.

In "Victory Is Justice", the protagonist helps his client clear his name in a much simpler way: he first calls the media to accuse the police of violently extorting confessions, causing public opinion to shift towards the defendant, and then runs to the park where the crime occurred.

Use the method of inducement and suggestion to remind the boss that on the day of the incident, the defendant had been drinking coffee in the park...

The defendant looked at the old policeman's back with a smile on his face, and then whispered: "Next... I'll kill you."

The police did have many laxities in the case handling process. In the end, in court, under Gu Meimen’s questioning and accusation, the experienced veteran police officer yelled at him: “Such an obvious crime.

!You can see it at a glance!”

Takeda Toru suddenly realized at this moment, yes, isn't this how criminal cases are fought in real life? Damn it, I have watched so many legal dramas that I almost forgot that it is the responsibility of the police to find the murderer, not the lawyer.

In this way, it seems that it is not formal, and the gag "Victory is Justice" is closer to reality...

Other viewers also have such doubts. Yes, after all, a person did die. Who is the murderer if he is not the defendant? As a lawyer, you help your client clear his grievances, but you do not find the real murderer. This is not disrespectful.

Responsibility?

Hearing this, Toru Takeda smiled helplessly. It seems that the public really has a misunderstanding about lawyers... It is all the fault of legal dramas, which makes people think that lawyers are really responsible for solving cases.

"What a passionate person..." Toru Takeda said with emotion. In fact, many lawyers were Machiko Dai when they first entered the profession, but later they gradually became Kensuke Komemon.

However, the behavioral logic of the two is fundamentally different. The protagonist in "Pioneering Lawyer" tries every means to find the truth and restore the client's innocence; while Kensuke Komemon in "Victory is Justice" does not consider the truth at all.

, but desperately looking for loopholes in the police interrogation.

"It turns out it was really this guy who killed me!"

Takeda Tetsuya was surprised by this reversal, but soon, on the TV screen, the defendant turned around and smiled at Dai Machiko: "I was joking." He ran away casually.

Although the trial of the suspect is indeed based on the presumption of innocence, when Machiko Dai met the defendant, the defendant had already admitted that he had committed the murder. It was obviously inappropriate to impose a presumption of innocence at this time.

At the door of the court, the defendant expressed his gratitude to Machiko Dai, while the old policeman stood looking at the two men from a distance, looked at the defendant deeply with eyes that looked like he was looking at trash, and then turned and left.

As for who the murderer is, the answer is not given in the play, and whether the young man is the murderer is not clearly stated in the play.

The first case of "Victory is Justice" ended in such a regretful, weird and absurd atmosphere. On the other hand, in "Pioneering Lawyer", the protagonist started a fight with his colleagues in the firm because he successfully solved the case.

Champagne.

This is actually a very common development in legal dramas, but comparing the "pioneer lawyer" who found the truth with Kensuke Gumeimen who didn't find the truth, for some reason, it seems a lot shallower.

"After such a comparison, it seems that "Victory is Justice" is better." Toru Takeda muttered again.
