Chapter 8 New Case
There was silence in the conference room.
Both men had a headache.
Imanishi was already thinking about how to reduce the size of the newly expanded law firm again, and began to make plans to eliminate lawyers and assistants.
Kitahara has a headache as to where to start the investigation. If, as Imanishi said, the Asset Supervision Bureau is here to destroy evidence, then an extremely dangerous road will be waiting for him. Because Kitahara knows very well that there is evidence of destruction.
There must be forged evidence.
If you want people to be freed from guilt, then someone must be found guilty on their behalf.
Eto's whereabouts were unknown, and he seemed to be deeply involved with the firm, making him the perfect scapegoat.
Beiyuan continued to think.
Of course, no conclusion could be drawn from thinking in the conference room of Imanishi's office. So, not long after, Kitahara said goodbye to Imanishi and left the office. Miyagawa also followed Kitahara and did not stay in the conference room.
On the streets of Tokyo.
Kitahara and Miyagawa walked side by side.
"Why don't you relax today. Anyway, the office is in a mess by the people from the Asset Supervision Bureau." Miyagawa looked sideways at Kitahara beside him, leaning forward slightly, "How about we just walk around casually today?
Let’s take a walk.”
Kitahara was still thinking about Eto, the Asset Supervision Bureau, and Eriko, and answered vaguely "Okay", but he didn't really hear what Miyagawa was saying clearly, and he followed Miyagawa aimlessly in Tokyo.
Get up and walk.
The two of them took the subway together, boarded the bus, walked through the bustling streets, sometimes walked into a modern shopping mall, and at other times turned into an unknown shrine. Tokyo is a big city, with enough
23 districts. In this way, they took different means of transportation, traveled between the districts, and set foot on different streets and corners.
Until almost dusk.
Miyagawa was also a little tired from walking.
At this time, Beihara came back from his thoughts. It turned out that he and Miyagawa had been walking around Tokyo for almost a whole day without knowing it.
"Where are you already?" Beihara asked.
"We are in Meguro Ward." Miyagawa replied, "Jiyugaoka in Meguro Ward."
Jiyugaoka in Meguro District, Tokyo is a famous residential area. Many residences here have Western-style decorations. Coupled with the convenient commercial facilities here, in a survey of Tokyo citizens, Jiyugaoka is the most popular residential area in Tokyo.
This area is considered the most livable area.
"These foreign-style houses are so beautiful." Miyagawa stopped in front of a classic, western-style small villa.
Kitahara also looked up at the building, and then his eyes fell on the house number. However, as soon as he saw the house number, Kitahara couldn't help but froze.
There are three big characters written on the door plate, "Gumei Gate."
Unexpectedly, Miyagawa and Kithara actually came to Gu Meimen Law Firm by mistake.
Kitahara thought of his past fights with this lawyer with a 100% winning rate, and the scene of meeting him again in Kyoto. Maybe Gu Meimen knew something?
Since you just happened to walk in front of the office, you might as well go in.
This coincidence may be a revelation from God.
or--
It was the luck of the girl next to me.
Beihara looked back at Miyagawa.
This western-style villa does not look like a law firm from the outside. After all, when people think of a law firm, they may think of a skyscraper in the central business district.
There are steps at the door, which extend upward to the entrance of the villa. There are moss on the stone steps, and there are many shadows of trees outside the villa. The two contrast each other, and it is obviously an elegant building, but it seems to exude invisible pressure.
Just like that lawyer with a 100% winning rate.
Step up the steps and open the office door.
A quarrel followed immediately.
That was Machiko's voice.
Beiyuan still remembers that she was the assistant of lawyer Gu Meimen.
In my impression, it seems that Machiko has been bickering with Gu Meimen!
"If you watch another high-speed spinning attack with three points, I'm going to report you for possessing bad books and items!" Machiko's voice came.
"Idiot! Does this meet the legal definition of a bad book?! Go ahead and retake the judicial exam!"
The next second, there was a "bang" sound.
A magazine with an exposed girl on it was immediately thrown at the door. The force was so strong that several pages fell out the moment it hit the wall.
"What are you doing!!!" Gu Meimen's voice came.
A slightly thin figure with a somewhat funny face quickly appeared at the door and immediately picked up the magazine as if it were a treasure.
However, the moment he picked it up and looked up, Gu Meimen found someone standing at the door.
He would never forget this young man's face.
After all, I just met him in Kyoto.
After all, he was once his equal in the Tokyo High Court.
A magazine page showing a thigh wearing fishnet stockings slowly floated down from the top of the porch.
At this moment, the two barristers met again...
…
…
Gumeimen Law Firm, reception room.
Beiyuan and Gu Meimen were sitting opposite each other, with exquisite teacups on the table, soaking precious black tea, and the butler standing respectfully next to them. It seemed that this was the appropriate occasion for the two barristers to meet. What happened at the door just now
A scene is just an accident, or something that happened in a parallel universe.
"I have to say, you and I are very destined." Gu Meimen nodded slightly, "Just in time, I wanted to find you too. Unexpectedly, you showed up to the door yourself."
"It's really strange that Lawyer Gu Meimen wants to find me." Beiyuan heard Gu Meimen say this and became curious. Why would this lawyer who takes both black and white and has a 100% winning rate want to find him?
Own.
"Didn't the Asset Supervision Bureau come to your door recently?"
"You are very well informed."
"I have a case here. I believe you will be interested in it, so I will leave it to you." Gu Meimen said.
"What case?"
Gu Mei goalkeeper slowly put down the tea cup in his hand and looked at Kitahara meaningfully, "This case is a procurement dispute at the Shinjuku City Hall. To put it simply, a trading company participated in municipal procurement, but did not win the bid. They think it was deliberately
It has been squeezed out. Normally, ordinary suppliers would just swallow their anger and let it go. After all, no one would want to take the initiative to provoke the city hall."
"But, this time, the president is not going to tolerate it anymore. The reason is that the Shinjuku City Hall still owes him the final payment for many projects. Now, he has made a request to the Finance Bureau to review the entire bidding and bid evaluation process, and to verify the winning bid.
Whether there is any transfer of interest between the person and the organizer of the city hall.”
"So, why did Lawyer Gu Meimen introduce this case to me?"
"It's very simple, because it is said that Jiang Lizi is behind the winning bidder." Gu Meimen said nonchalantly.
The voice fell.
Chapter completed!
