Higuruma Hoshimi is an ordinary high school girl from a family of legal professionals. She dreams of becoming a legendary figure in the legal world, just like her idol, and is working hard to get into the law department at T University, where her parents and older brother studied.
Who could have guessed that during a school trip in her first year of high school, she would somehow get caught up in a murder case and be treated as a suspect?!
At the critical moment when a witness pointed the finger at her, Higuruma Hoshimi suddenly awakened her innate technique, "Turnabout Trial," and used it to find the true culprit: a cursed spirit.
Higuruma, the Materialist, Hoshimi: Wait, so supernatural powers really do exist in this world?!
The white-haired guy and the weird-fringed high school boy who happened to be passing by (nodding): They really do.
The idol and his assistant, a spirit medium, who happened to be there (nodding): They really do.
With her worldview shattered overnight, Higuruma Hoshimi tearfully accepted reality and said goodbye to Teitan High School, where she had been studying. She was forced to transfer to a certain technical college (emphasis).
Higuruma Hoshimi: Just so we're clear, I have no problem with the technical college. I just want to ask the principal if there's any way to turn it into an undergraduate college QAQ

After entering the world of jujutsu, which she had never encountered before, Higuruma Hoshimi was shocked to discover that it was full of criminals who thought they were above the law!
Bigamy, illegal employment of child labor, intentional murder... After seeing the ugly face of the feudal criminal underworld with her own eyes, the blood of her family awakened. Higuruma Hoshimi slammed her hand on the table in fury: Death sentence! Death sentence for all of them!
Her classmates watching from the sidelines: We support you, but could you spare the table under your hand? It's about to break.
Higuruma Hoshimi, secretly imitating her idol (fake cough): ...That's not important! We have only one goal:
All evil will eventually be brought to justice (shouting)!
The criminal underworld sneered: The law? What's the law worth? It means nothing in the face of power and strength...
A giant gavel appeared in the sky. Its immense pressure rendered everyone immobile in an instant.
Facing the people who had gone silent, drenched in cold sweat, the petite girl smiled brightly. "'The law means nothing in the face of power and strength'? Tell me, are you sure you've got that right?"
I am power and strength.
"I am the law."
She laughed as she made her declaration in midair.
"The evidence is conclusive. I hereby deliver the verdict in this case:"
"You are all guilty!"
The gavel descended with the verdict, and the ground beneath it was reduced to dust in an instant. As the light of justice descended upon the world (literally), everything was renewed.
The onlookers stared at the scene before them and at the girl's arrogant smile. "...Wait, so who's the criminal underworld here?!"
Reader's Guide:
1. The heroine is incredibly powerful, a gem on par with her older brother XD
2. The heroine is 155 cm tall and won't grow any taller.
3. A crossover between Jujutsu Kaisen, Ace Attorney, and Detective Conan/Magic Kaito. Because the heroine's technique and the author's intelligence are both rather limited, and because I want to have fun with it, there will be all sorts of dumb deductions and bizarre plaintiffs, defendants, witnesses, methods, and motives... Just enjoy the ride! Also, to fit Jujutsu Kaisen's timeline, I've adjusted Ace Attorney's timeline to follow the actual release dates of the games. That means the events of Ace Attorney 1 take place in 2001, and the other events in the original series are shifted accordingly. Detective Conan's timeline is around the year before Conan, so there won't be a storyline about saving the police academy group.
4. Although it's not mentioned in the blurb (sorry, I'm terrible at writing blurbs!), this is actually a lighthearted, fun series of Ace Attorney-style episodic stories. The main content is the four students at Jujutsu High joking around in their daily lives, plus some heartwarming sibling moments, a little Japanese folklore horror, a main plot about solving cases and catching criminals, and the whole good-aligned cast joining forces to send the villains to prison. No grim original-story plotlines: young people should enjoy their youth! It probably won't be too long. The goal is to make the rotten higher-ups and villains face justice at the hands of the protagonist (cue prison blues.mp3).
5. The legal system and trial procedures in this story are based on the first three Ace Attorney games and Prosecutor's Path 1 and 2, with some personal alterations. They have nothing to do with real-world law.
6. The love interest is one of the two high school boys mentioned in the blurb.
