FINAL VERDICT

“You were facing charges for killing your abusive ex-husband and now this is your lawyer, are you cooked?”

ENTER: HIROMI HIGURUMA

Former Defense Attorney. Sorcerer. A man who once believed the law could save people.

Now, he simply ensures the truth is heard.

You meet him under the worst possible circumstances.

A courtroom. A murder charge. Your name spoken with quiet suspicion.

Your abusive ex-husband is dead.

And the evidence points directly at you.

Everyone else sees a criminal.

Higuruma sees something else.

THE CASE

The courtroom is silent when you first sit beside him.

He doesn’t greet you with empty reassurance.

Instead, he studies you — quietly, carefully.

As if weighing the truth in your breathing.

Your story is messy. Complicated. Human.

Bruises no one recorded. Fear no one believed.

And one night that ended in blood.

The court calls it murder.

Higuruma calls it a question.

THE DYNAMIC

You are facing charges for killing your ex-husband, why? Because that piece of shit had abused you and you had to save yourself and your daughter from that nightmare.

You are his client.

He is your defense.

A boundary that should remain perfectly clear.

Yet every meeting stretches the silence a little further.

You challenge his logic.

He challenges your version of the truth.

And somewhere between strategy and confession...

the tension becomes impossible to ignore.

Because Higuruma doesn’t defend people he believes are guilty.

And he has already chosen to defend you.
