Above Tokyo Bay, the blue sky is cloudless. A black helicopter hovers above the Tokyo Bay port, its propellers continue to rotate, leaving gray afterimages, and bursts of engine roaring noises continue to erupt.

On the helicopter, a female host was holding a microphone and wearing delicate light makeup. The air waves ejected from the propeller above kept blowing her hair on both sides.

The female host was wearing a safety helmet and her mouth was slightly open. She looked like she couldn't believe the scene in front of her and her whole body seemed to be frozen.

"Chieko! Chieko!" A man sitting in the cabin, carrying a camera, said anxiously to the host, "Chieko! The broadcast has already started! Why are you still standing there!!"

But under the helicopter, I saw thousands of large container trucks parked at the Tokyo Bay Oi Pier and the cross-sea bridge leading to the city. These large container trucks were moving at an extremely slow speed at the gate of the cross-sea bridge.

Driving everywhere, even though the road ahead was empty, these container trucks still did not step on the accelerator vigorously, resulting in a blockage that formed an extremely long convoy that stretched for several kilometers.

The colorful containers were grouped together like a winding dragon, swaying its tail on the ground and slowly floating on the ground. Suddenly, thousands of container trucks suddenly sounded their horns at the same time as if they had been ordered. The piercing sound

The sound of the trumpet exploded like a time bomb. The sound wave was mixed with the summer air waves. At this moment, it was like a tsunami. The hard concrete floor seemed to be shaking violently at this moment.

The female host was stunned by the scene in front of her. Only her years of professional training pushed her to speak: "Everyone... Dear viewers, this is Oi Terminal in Tokyo Bay. Thousands of large container trucks, for some unknown reason, deliberately

Driving at an extremely slow speed on the gate of the cross-sea bridge. This caused a vehicle jam that was several kilometers long. And, just now, these large container trucks sounded their horns together, as if they were...

To whom...show...power!!!"

…

9:07, Tokyo Bay, Golden Port Ship Operation Warehouse.

In front of the huge cold steel warehouse gate, there is a small podium. The podium is filled with microphones from dozens of media. Hundreds of media reporters are already standing in the square in front of the warehouse gate.

.

Beside the tall iron door of the warehouse, five men with dark faces wearing simple work clothes slowly stepped onto the podium. The expressions on their faces were resolute and cold, like Vajra Arhats without any emotions or desires appearing in the room.

This looks like a bronze statue of Dharmakaya, making people awe-inspiring.

"Coming, coming!!!" a reporter shouted loudly.

The square in front of the warehouse was as if a firecracker had been thrown into it, and it instantly became commotion. A flashlight flashed in front of the podium. There were strong flashes one after another, and the dazzling white light almost drowned the small podium above.

Five men in simple work clothes, from left to right, are: Masanobu Muto, executive chairman of the Truck Drivers Federation, Fumio Sawai, executive chairman of the Truck Drivers' Federation, Kintaro Takeshita, chairman of the Kanto Drivers Federation, Freight

Kiyono Yukihira, president of the Driving Workers Union, and Ryuken Aida, president of the Solidarity Drivers Union.

Members of these five major truck driver unions account for 60% of the number of truck drivers in Dongyang. As long as these five union leaders raise their arms and launch a strike, Dongyang's traffic lifeline will instantly lose the blood pressure of pumping blood, like a withered flower.

Withered quickly. These five men can be said to be one of the most powerful figures in the East.

The joint press conference of the five major trade unions officially begins.

Masanobu Muto, executive president of the Truck Drivers' Union, took a step forward and said into the microphone: "Recently, we have noticed that the judicial authorities are handling a case about spilled materials on the highway. The case involves the maintenance obligations of the highway company.

Judgment, its significance is extremely important."

"However, just a few minutes ago, this association heard that 11 highway companies issued a joint statement. In the joint statement of the 11 highway companies, the ultimate source of responsibility for the spilled materials on the ground was attributed to violations.

Overloaded truck driver. The content of this statement distorts the facts and confuses right and wrong. Accordingly, our five truck driver unions issued the following declaration on the joint statement of the above-mentioned 11 highway companies!"

"The truck driver members under the jurisdiction of the five major trade unions strictly abide by the national regulations on the management of truck cargo weight. However, overloading has been repeatedly prohibited because highway companies in various places illegally accept bribes from transportation companies and specifically allow overloaded trucks to enter the highway.

This has led to a series of hidden dangers of traffic accidents, including the problem of spilled objects on the road."

"These illegal bribery transportation companies have greatly disrupted the normal order of the market, and their low price advantage brought by overloading has impacted the wages of the majority of law-abiding drivers. Here, the five truck driver unions severely condemn this type of illegal transportation companies,

and highway companies that accepted bribes to release overloaded trucks.”

"This association believes that the root cause of truck overloading lies with the highway companies themselves, not the truck drivers. If the highway companies can hold on to the bottom line and do not pursue petty profits, how can the overloading phenomenon continue to occur! Once the overloading phenomenon is eliminated,

Then the number of spills on the road will inevitably be reduced. In this regard, the statements about the root causes of spills on the road in the above-mentioned joint statement of the eleven highway companies have actually seriously misled the public."

"This association believes that the case of spilled objects on highways recently heard by judicial authorities is extremely important to the trucking industry. In fact, the majority of truck drivers have suffered greatly from the inability of highway companies to maintain roads. After paying high tolls, they were

You still need to be cautious when driving on the road. It is not uncommon for truck accidents caused by road spills to cause casualties."

"The failure of expressway companies to fulfill their road maintenance obligations has become a serious problem that must be treated with strong medicine. Here, we hope that the majority of expressway companies will not ignore long-term interests in pursuit of short-term profits.

.The value of human life is above all else. We hope that all highway companies can keep their bottom line and take care of themselves!"

“Here, we hope that the Shinjuku District District Court will conduct a fair trial in accordance with the law regarding the case of Terai v. Kawamoto Expressway and make a proper judgment that is in compliance with the law!”

After speaking, Muto and the other four union leaders bowed deeply to the audience.

The joint statement issued by five labor union leaders and the joint statement issued by 11 highway companies formed a tit-for-tat trend. This is a situation that has never happened in Japan before.

On one side are eleven highway companies, accounting for almost 80% of Japan's highway construction share. On the other side are the five major labor unions, whose union members account for more than 60% of truck drivers. Both sides are giants in Japan's industry, and each other is the only one.

A wave of the fist will cause earth-shattering and overwhelming effects. A violent storm sweeping across the East Ocean is about to come.

At this time, this huge pressure was suddenly transmitted to the Shinjuku District Court, and to Judge Kumagai, the chief judge of the Terai v. Kawamoto Expressway case...

…

Tokyo, Shinjuku-ku, Eto Law Firm.

Kitahara was sitting on the sofa in the office, sipping a cup of black tea rather leisurely, and watching the TV on the table of the law firm. The Asahi Shimbun Channel had just broadcast the joint statement of 11 highways and the joint statement of the five major labor unions.

Announce the news.

"Interesting, really interesting." The corners of Beiyuan's mouth were slightly raised, as if he was an audience watching an absurd drama. He then lowered his head and looked at his watch.

There are still about 40 minutes until the hearing of the Terai v. Kawamoto Expressway case begins.

You can prepare to take a taxi to the court.
Chapter completed!
