Chapter 402

10:23pm.

Kyoto University, Faculty of Engineering Research Building.

The conference room, which should have been dark at ordinary times, was rarely lit up at this moment.A room at the end of the corridor is exquisitely decorated, obviously in the European style of the [-]th century. There is also an old-fashioned swinging wall clock inside. It is obvious that it is a special room only for senior professors.Looking from the door, one can vaguely see two figures in the room.

Daheyuan frowned tightly, his complexion unprecedentedly gloomy.He just came out of an emergency meeting with professors in the Faculty of Engineering.The dean really didn't expect that among the 24 departments of the Faculty of Engineering of Kyoto University, 15 departments' scientific research funds were suspended by the Academic Promotion Committee.This is simply an unprecedented situation since the founding of Kyoto University.

And the starting point of all this... turned out to be that young lawyer this afternoon, and a woman in her thirties who came out of nowhere and printed a piece of A4 paper directly.As a result, such a huge storm was set off.

In the professor's emergency meeting just now, he undoubtedly suffered tremendous pressure.Many professors who have been cut off from scientific research funds are already full of complaints.

It is said that after learning of the news, the high-level school board members of the university quickly held a temporary meeting.Up to this point in time, this interim meeting has not yet ended.

All of a sudden, there was smoke everywhere, and the world was in chaos.

In the afternoon, after the young male lawyer and the investigator issued the order to stop the payment, they left the scene directly.At the time, I thought they were joking.A lawyer in her twenties and a woman in her early 30s are about to cut off more than half of the research funds of the Faculty of Engineering of Kyoto University.

Who would believe this?

Who would have thought that the thin A4 paper spit out from that portable printer would be so powerful.

At that time, I, Prosecutor Yan Yong, and lawyer Ikegami didn't take it seriously.Attorney Ikegami rushed directly to participate in an event at the Kyoto Lawyers Association, while Prosecutor Yan Yong went to the detention center to handle the interrogation of a case.Unexpectedly, at 6 o'clock, all the professors in the 15 departments of the Faculty of Engineering who had scientific research projects approved by the Academic Promotion Committee received an official email from the Academic Promotion Committee, informing them that the payment of scientific research funds would be stopped.

After that, the Faculty of Engineering temporarily held an emergency meeting of professors.

As soon as the meeting was over, I rushed to Batteries and Iwanaga to call them together to discuss countermeasures.

"When will Prosecutor Iwanaga come back?" Ogawara looked up at Chishang who was already sitting in the conference room, his usually calm face had to show a look of anxiety, "Where has he been?"

Ikegami raised his hand and looked at his watch, "Just now, Prosecutor Yan Yong has called me and said that he is coming soon."

"What's going on?" Okawara clenched his fists and gritted his teeth slightly, "Even an investigator from the Accounting Inspection Institute can ride on the head of Kyoto University?!"

In front of Ikegami was the resume of Toyoko Yuki. His eyes carefully scanned the resume of the investigator in front of him, and then he said, "This investigator is undoubtedly committing suicide in his official career. Such a child's play Cutting off the scientific research funds of a top university department in the country, she really thought that her small auditing power was a great power. She didn't consider the consequences of doing so at all."

"Nine times out of ten, this investigator will be transferred from this post soon." Chi Shang said coldly, "With such a chaotic style of work, who else would dare to use her."

There was a gloomy look in Ogawara’s eyes, “I heard that people from the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology are already paying attention to this matter. There are already big figures at the top who are negotiating with the Academic Promotion Committee and are re-examining the matter of the stop payment order. In order to investigate The matter of a few industry-research joint ventures stopped the scientific research funds of 15 departments of the Ministry of Engineering. This is at your own expense! It is a waste of time developing new technologies!"

"Could it be that you can't drive because you will get into a car accident?! How can there be such an absurd reason!" The more Okawara said, the more emotional he became, "That investigator named Yuki, is there any way to get her? She is like this Is his behavior considered an abuse of power."

"This kind of person who jumps out on his own initiative doesn't need us to do it." Ikegami said, "That Yuki will naturally feel the pressure. I'm afraid she still thinks that she is an unselfish investigator. Reality will naturally teach her what is right. ,What is wrong."

As soon as Ikegami's voice fell, the door of the meeting room rang.

Prosecutor Yan Yong walked in in a black windbreaker, and put his briefcase on the table.

"Prosecutor Iwanaga came just in time." Okawara stood up, greeted him, and said immediately, "You must have heard that the university has really suffered from the suspension of scientific research funds. What should we do now? Is the Accounting Inspection Institute going to It's serious. Will there be any unexpected changes in Morimoto's case?"

Iwanaga nodded in response to Ogawara, sat on the seat, rubbed his fists, and said with a contemptuous smile, "Professor Ogawara, don't worry too much. Applying pressure is just a common method used by legal practitioners. The more aggressive the pressure, the stronger the opponent is." There are no substantive materials that can pose a threat to the university. After the investigation of the Morimoto corruption case, a large amount of materials have been seized by the procuratorate and are now being transferred to the court. It is impossible for people from the accounting inspection office to have access to these materials, so They're just bluffing."

"According to the "Audit Law", the Accounting Inspection Institute has the power to seal up assets, freeze deposits, and order the audited unit not to transfer, conceal, tamper, destroy accounting materials. If that Yuki really has any solid evidence , It is entirely possible to come to the university to seal up the relevant assets. But they obviously did not."

"Also, I took a closer look at the so-called stop-payment order issued by them. There was no mention of the production-research joint venture of Kyoto University at all. On the contrary, there were some false information about some personnel through several scientific research declarations. , made this move. It just so happens that there are 15 departments in the Faculty of Engineering of Kyoto University who have borrowed staff and used people outside the school as staff members of the school to fill in scientific research projects. However, this violation is only a trivial matter.”

"Therefore, I can judge that their so-called stop payment order will not last long and will be forced to be lifted soon."

Ogawara nodded slightly after listening to Iwanaga's words.The anxious mood just now returned to calm again.It is common for people outside the school to fill in the scientific research projects as the school personnel.After all, some scientific research projects have requirements for the number of people, and the research institutes that do not have enough people have to fill in some people from outside the school to make up the number.

In other words, because of this kind of thing, it is a common experience in my own university to be stopped by the Academic Promotion Committee from appropriating funds for a certain scientific research project.When this kind of thing happens, often after the institute makes corrections to the personnel, the corresponding funding can continue to be allocated within a week or two.It seemed that the investigator was indeed bluffing!
Ogawara touched his chin, and then asked again: "What about the Morimoto case? That lawyer really doesn't want to overturn the case, does he?"

Yan Yong laughed directly, "I guess that lawyer just wanted to follow the Accounting Inspection Institute to review the matter of Kyoto University, and fish in troubled waters. But, unfortunately, I guess he doesn't have the guts. If he really wants to reverse the case, then It means that the plea affidavit will become invalid. Any reasonable defense lawyer would not make such a stupid move."

"Therefore, Professor Ogawara. You don't have to worry about the so-called reversal of the case. If you still have doubts, we can wait and see in court. This so-called Beiyuan lawyer will definitely make Morimoto plead guilty. That five-ten-thousand chance of innocence."

Yan Yong's tone revealed a bit of complacency, as if he had already guessed the strategy and thinking of the opposite lawyer Bei Yuan.Yes, only a fool would take that 8 out of [-] chance of innocence.No matter how tough the lawyer seems, he must obediently give way to the defendant who faces [-] years in prison and persuade the defendant to plead guilty and accept punishment.Everything they did today was useless...
