Afternoon, Rolls-Royce Branch, Minato-ku, Tokyo.

A bright blue L-shaped building with full-body glass stands next to the Edogawa River. The modern building vividly highlights the fashionable style of a large international car factory. And just across the road is the Oriental

The famous Akasaka Imperial Palace is the first Western-style royal palace. The fact that the Rolls-Royce branch is located in such a location fully illustrates the strong economic strength of this automobile manufacturer from the Western British Island.

Wearing a simple engineering suit, Terai came to the bottom of the company branch building. He was sweating profusely at this time. He had just returned from the car test site. He was holding a stack of the latest technologies for bus linear throttle technology testing in his hands, and he was walking briskly with his feet.

pace, feeling very happy.

On the one hand, it is because of the bus linear throttle control technology he invented, which has made new breakthroughs. Although there is still a long way to go before low-cost installation, it has finally taken another step forward.

Then there is the Kawamoto Expressway lawsuit. Recently, the little girl named Miyagawa reported to him the progress of the lawsuit. It seems that the progress is not bad. Graduates of the University of Tokyo are really awesome.

From under the building, to entering the elevator, to walking back to the office...

When employees in the company saw Terai in the aisle, their expressions changed, and then they lowered their heads and listened.

On the road, countless eyes kept falling on Terai.

Terai, wearing engineering clothes, seemed to have become a rare animal in a cage in a zoo, accepting comments from tourists.

Walking in the corridor of the company, Terai seemed to feel the strange eyes and the strange expressions on the faces of his colleagues, and frowned. Could it be that there was something on my face? Terai took out his mobile phone and used the reflection of the screen as a mirror to see.

He looked at his face.

There's nothing weird on it.

What a weird thing!

Terai came outside the office belonging to their R&D department.

Extremely noisy chatter came from the office. There are more than a hundred R&D technicians in the R&D department. It is usually a quiet office, but at this moment it is full of people and the sound of conversation is endless. However, when I stepped into the temple

In an instant, all the chatter in the R&D department suddenly stopped and became deathly silent.

In an instant, it seemed that more than a hundred people in the R&D department all glanced in the direction of Terai at the same time.

Terai's heart couldn't help but tremble, and the excitement he had just felt dissipated a lot. What happened? Terai's footsteps became a little panicked, and he lowered his head and walked towards his work station.

When I arrived at my workstation, I saw a few pieces of paper taped to my office computer screen.

The paper seems to have been cut from certain weekly magazines and tabloids.

Several headlines in bold at the top of the page are printed with extremely clear and impactful large characters:

"The owner of a luxury car arbitrarily sued the highway company" "A poor family still pretends to be rich, and the luxury car finally becomes a dream"

In the main text, there is also a photo of myself, except that there is an almost negligible mosaic of black stripes on the eyes.

Seeing these weekly reports, especially the slander against himself in the main text, Terai's eyes widened a bit in an instant, and his whole body couldn't stop shaking. What's going on? How did my lawsuit get reported?

It came out?! And it was reported in this way?! How did they get my personal information?!

Terai immediately tore off the paper on the screen with a "swish" sound. The moment he lowered his head, he suddenly discovered that there was something new at his workstation.

But I saw that the computer keyboard at the workstation was covered with pieces of bread crumbs, and these crumbs happened to fall into the gaps of the keyboard. And the thesis booklet on the desktop was directly stapled.

All edges are nailed.

As if he had been struck by a bolt from the blue, Terai couldn't believe what was happening in front of him, and bursts of ridicule from his colleagues seemed to be heard in his ears.

"Look, this fool is suing the highway company."

"Who told him to use his company bonus to buy a Rolls-Royce?"

"I work at Rolls-Royce every day, and I thought I could afford a Rolls-Royce."

The cell phone in his pocket buzzed. Terai shook his head, took out the cell phone, and pressed the answer button.

The anxious voice of his wife Najinjiang came from the other side of the phone: "Old man! Someone threw stones and smashed the windows of our house! What's going on!"

With a "click", Terai's cell phone slipped directly from his hand.

Najinjiang's voice could be vaguely heard on the mobile phone, "Hey! Hey! Old man! Can you hear me?!"

The automotive engineer was stunned on the spot.

what happened?

How come it was just a lawsuit, but it turned into this?!

Terai looked at the names of several more weekly magazines. These weekly magazines are the tabloids in Japan that are most keen on inciting gossip. Many other weekly magazines will reprint them accordingly to increase their popularity. In other words, there are at least dozens of these articles now.

Type reports continue to circulate.

Things are not as these tabloids say.

no!

I don't have a loan to buy a car.

I bought this with my company's patent bonus.

I'm not vain. The reason I bought this car is because it is the first car in the world to be equipped with the self-invented accelerator technology.

I didn't answer the phone in the car seat, my wife answered the phone.

They are talking nonsense, they are talking nonsense!!!

The huge feeling of grievance instantly flooded Terai like a tide. Terai's eyes were red and his hands were shaking. He was about to bend down to pick up the phone that fell on the ground when suddenly there was a sound of footsteps behind him.

A man in a suit walked to Terai's work station. There was a small nameplate hanging on his body, which said Director of the R&D Department. However, the director's voice was cold and said:
Chapter completed!
