Seigi no Tenbin (正義の天秤 / Balance of Justice)

Look! That was destroyed by the Desperado fleet in episode 19 →

This is the island that became the model for Hope Island! (Miyamizu) Hey! →

It's smaller than I thought! (Tachibana) Ah, hey, take a photo.

\The boat is capsizing! There it is! There it is!

Ah... ah... ah ah.

Father!

What? What? (Yoriko) Look, there it is.

Is it a person? that! (Yoriko) People. People?

Ah... >> Ah! Head! Puhaha...!

Two people? (Yoriko) Two, there are two of him. Are there two?

Give it away! Ah, ah…! Teme!

Are you trying to kill me?

Ah… >> Here we go!

Ah~!

Mr. Saeki...

It's okay.

Can you tell me honestly about the time your boat capsized?

Then I will take responsibility for this matter...

>> Oh, wait. The story we just talked about didn't happen...

What happened?

>> Mr. Saeki will accept the job →

I definitely thought it was Mr. Saeki.

But I also passed the bar exam →

I have inherited a lot of my father's DNA.

The difference in experience is youth and guts. >> I'm sorry.

Um, please wait. I will definitely clear your son's name!

undefined

>> Well then, thank you.

>> Ugh...! Ah, uh... (Hosaka) Teacher!

Ugh, ah... ah!

Ah... ah...｡

>> Sorry! Please get the ball! please!

>> Awesome! >> Thank you very much!

What I want to talk about today is →

This is about the future of Room 1 after Makio Saeki-sensei passes away.

Yes, about that, it's from me... >> Let me be frank →

We are considering abolishing Room 1.

Teachers quit one after another in Room 1→

There are only eight lawyers left.

No, there were 4 people including me.

>> Hahahahaha…｡ >> As you know→

The management of our Dansaka Law Office is →

It is fully supported by the sales of Room 2 and Room 3.

In comparison, Room 1, which is in charge of the criminal division...

Actually, my father has been worrying about this too.

And I was thinking about rebuilding Room 1 in my father's own way.

Rebuilding? >> What exactly are you going to do?

A strong Major Leaguer-level helper will soon appear →

He will come to room 1.

Is it headhunting?

That's what makes him such an amazing person!

Four years ago, he came into the legal world like a comet and specialized in criminal cases, winning nine consecutive victories without a hitch.

There were 4 cases of complete innocence and 5 cases of partial innocence.

Moreover, eight of them were found innocent!

However, a year ago, he quietly disappeared from the legal profession.

>> Why?

Come on...

But it seems that he used to be a surgeon.

>> Surgeon? →

Are you saying that you are a lawyer and a surgeon?

I don't understand that yet either.→

My father wanted that person to also participate in the management →

I would like to delegate full authority as a managing partner →

It's clearly written in my will, which I updated every month.

>> 鷹野和也…｡

Excuse me.

I am that...

This is Takano.

Mr. Takano, I've been waiting for you.

This is Mei Saeki.

As long as full authority has been delegated to him by the representative attorney, Makio Saeki →

I will rebuild this decaying Room 1 into a magnificent building.

That one is a bit rotten... (Takano) Excuse me.

They were a group of rotten baggage.

It's the same as a professional baseball team that is at the bottom of the standings and is in danger of selling the team.

That's so...

>> Please.

This is Danzaka Law Office→

It was founded in 1985 by Makio Saeki in what was then Kita Ward's Division Hill.

In 1991, won a reversal of acquittal in the Otsuki case →

Rapidly gaining popularity and growing rapidly.

Although we currently have a total of 208 lawyers→

98% of total sales of 8 billion →

Room 2 specializing in civil matters →

Room 3, which is in charge of corporate legal affairs, has raised this.

In other words, the profit from Room 1 is only 2%.

It's irrational.

What can we say without calling this completely rotten?

But don't worry.

Now that I've come, this Room 1 can become a group that can truly fight →

I'll retrain.

It's exciting.

A rotten group of baggage... (Mei) Yes...｡

That's all I'm saying. (Umezu) What the hell are you doing...?

Is this everyone?

Actually, there were 15 more people.

It's like the Bremen Town Musicians. (Mei) Huh?

It became useless and was abandoned by its owner→

They look like animals that have nowhere to go.

>> Haha I heard that Dr. Takano was a genius surgeon.

So why did you become a lawyer?

It's a strange habit. >> Yes?

The same is true in the medical world.

Why do lawyers call each other teacher?

>> Ah, no, that's... (Takano) It's pointless. It's irrational.

Now that I'm the head of this Room 1, I'm prohibited from calling each other Sensei.

>> What a pain...

Let's start the conference.

Everyone gather.

Hey hey hey hey... What is a conference?

It's about a meeting.

Is it a university hospital?

The client is Osamu Hosaka, 54 years old, who works part-time at a fishing boat shop.

Mr. Hosaka went fishing with one passenger on board when his boat capsized.

The two fight over the only floating ring thrown into the sea →

Hosaka is suspected of drowning the passenger.

What is the client's argument?

He denies the crime, saying he did not intend to cause her to drown.

>> The victim is Ryuichiro Kurahashi, 51, the manager of a chain of pubs.

This is quite a celebrity.

If you were forced to sacrifice the life of another person to protect your own life →

This is Article 37, Paragraph 1 of the Penal Code →

This is an emergency evacuation. You will not be charged with a crime.

Only the defendant was wearing a life jacket.

If I thought about it calmly, I could have given the float to the other person and saved them...

Mr. Kiryu, what is your opinion?

>>What really happened between the two who were thrown into the sea→

The problem is that objective proof is difficult.→

From a pleasure boat that happened to pass by →

Over 50 passengers witnessed this →

The distance between the two people is far →

It was difficult to see the situation clearly.

Prosecutors have already gathered favorable witnesses from among the passengers.

If we were to gather favorable witnesses from now on, we would not have enough manpower.

It would be better to find past precedents and deal with the issue.

If we can earn about 50 people with our feet, we'll probably be able to get by.

There are only a few days left until the trial. (Takano) Mr. Kiryu.

Former judges tend to be bound by past precedents →

boring.

Mr. Umezu: Earning money with your feet is a classic method unique to former detectives.→

However, the number of worn out shoes is →

It's not an award for a lawyer.

>> What about me?

Nothing in particular.

>>I want something.

So, what is Takano-san's opinion?

First, let's interview the defendant.

Those who come with me, follow me.

Starting now?

Hey, Mr. Takano!

Mr. Takano!

Please, please. (Mei) Eh...｡

It's been a while. Mr. Hosaka.

>> Mr. Takano. (Mei) Huh? Mr. Takano, do you know each other?

When I was a surgeon, I once operated on my son's heart.

>> It's been over 10 years already.

Thank you for your help back then.

But I didn't know that the teacher had become a lawyer.

There are many things.

Are you still playing baseball?

>> No, not now...

Have you given up? Koshien was just one step away, right?

>> So you cared about me...

On top of that, I was really surprised to meet you here.

I think I heard that from my father once too.→

Could you please tell me the details of the incident again?

Please.

>>It was a hot day that day.

The president's hobby is fishing →

They often used our boat for private use.

But I couldn't catch any fish, so I searched for a better fishing spot→

The ship sailed into dangerous waters.

Ah, the president's life jacket is a must.

I wonder if it's hot enough to wear something like this.

Take it further offshore than that.

I told you to stop →

I couldn't go against the president who paid me a lot of money...

Then... the wind became stronger than I expected...

The boat capsized...

Give it to me! Teme! Are you trying to kill me?

Ha ha ha ha…｡

Trying to save only yourself... it's ugly...

If only I had given away the float...→

That didn't happen though...

At that time, I panicked...

Saeki, what do you think? (Mei) Huh? (Takano) It's about the defendant's crime.

I didn't think Mr. Hosaka was lying.

Why can you say that? (Mei) Why →

It seemed like he was blaming himself and remorseful for his sins...

Reflection? That's what he thought when he looked.

Didn't you think it was an act?

But since there is no solid evidence, this is a case where emergency evacuation should be approved.

I don't think it constitutes murder.

That's no good.

I had heard that it was bad, but I never thought it would be this bad.

Second army. Third army.

He's lower than a trainee.

I will be the lead defense attorney.

Please collect as many eyewitness testimonies as you can.

What's wrong?
