Tokyo Barrister: Start the law firm bankruptcy

Chapter 433 Negotiation
Beiyuan's voice echoed in the courtroom.The defense of this young male lawyer pierced the eardrums of every university management present like a sharp needle.When these university personnel heard that Beiyuan said that the executives of the joint research institute and the research group of the Ministry of Engineering should be held accountable, they all "clicked" inwardly, as if their hearts had suddenly stopped at this moment.

If the executives of Peking University's Faculty of Engineering are also prosecuted criminally, it will be an unprecedented scandal of the century.And, it's not just scandals.Today, competition among universities in the East for public research funding is fierce.If this kind of corruption case really spread to more people, it will undoubtedly have a great negative impact on the budget that the university can win.

Money is everything.

Without money, there is no output of scientific research.

Of course, without money, the various hidden benefits of the management will also be greatly reduced.

Looking at the lawyer's momentum, Qian Hezi seemed to see a roaring beast.The meaning of this Beiyuan lawyer is already obvious. As long as his client is convicted, he must try his best to pull people to back him up.This... this... this is not criminal defense at all, this is mutual death, this is revenge.

Don't use a good plea agreement, and would rather risk a heavy sentence than drag other people from the university into the water.This is simply like the practice of barbarians!

For a while, Qian Hezi didn't know how to reply to the lawyer.She actually felt that this case should be charged with the crime of privately distributing state assets, not embezzlement.

The ingenuity of the opponent lies in this.

Once the crime of privately distributing state-owned assets is convicted, those who should be investigated for criminal responsibility are not all those involved in privately distributing state-owned assets, but only the managers and those directly responsible.For an auxiliary person like Morimoto who just obeys instructions, there is a high possibility of committing a crime.

In court, the third fact in the Morimoto corruption case is locked in unprecedented legal debate.Whether the country's public funds are separated from the supervision of the prescribed budget system satisfies the purpose of illegal possession required by the crime of corruption.Even if it has the purpose of illegal possession, should this case be convicted of privately distributing state-owned assets or of corruption.This is another huge legal dilemma.

Sitting in the auditorium, Yuki couldn't help but secretly marvel at the ability of this Kitahara lawyer.Yuki obtained a double degree in auditing and law in university.Although she was engaged in the auditing industry in the end, because she was often involved in corruption cases, her understanding of public crimes even surpassed that of ordinary lawyers.The Beiyuan lawyer had already set up two extremely ingenious lines of defense, and it would not be an easy task for the prosecutor's office to break through these two lines of defense.The purpose of illegal possession is one, and the crime of privately distributing state-owned assets is another, just like a barbed wire trench on a battlefield.

Yoshiichi Kitahara.

Yuuki silently read the lawyer's name.Her first impression of this young man was not wrong, he was really a very extraordinary person.

Examination in court continues.Chikako continued to produce evidence, and Miyagawa followed Kitahara for cross-examination.Although the court investigation is still going on, it is clear that everyone is still caught in the difficult questions raised by the Beiyuan lawyer just now.As a result, until the evidence about the third corruption fact was finally presented, everyone suddenly realized that the trial of the third corruption fact had been completed.

The time has come to 6:20 pm.

From the high sunshine in spring to the sunset in the evening.It was already dark outside the court building, and the quaint streets of Kyoto were already lit up at night.

Judge Sakuma pinched his brows, looked at one legal problem that was more difficult than the last one, and couldn't help but sighed a little. Then, he raised his head and announced, "This trial is over, and the time for the next trial will be announced .The defendant was remanded to the detention center!"

"Crack!"

The gavel sounded, and the second trial of the Morimoto corruption case ended...

……

……

In the evening, at 8:[-].

Kyoto University, Conference Room of Teaching and Research Building.

The two sides of the long European-style conference table were already filled with well-known figures in the university.The directors, who usually rarely show up on campus, are also rarely present at the venue at this moment.During the university's previous meetings, many people who have seen their heads and tails are also in this meeting room.

Ogawara was also sitting among them, frowning.At this moment, he already knew what happened in today's trial.The defense lawyer actually publicly declared that he would convict the crime of privately distributing state-owned assets, and that he would also hold the person in charge of the engineering department accountable.This is simply ridiculous.

However, after saying this, some upper echelons of the university really started to worry.The authority to handle the whole matter was immediately raised from the engineering department to the university level.The Department of Engineering can no longer intervene in the handling of the Morimoto corruption case, and only undertakes the latest information reporting.

Having a headache, really a headache, Okawara tapped his temple lightly.He never imagined that the male lawyer who had just glanced past in the school auditorium that afternoon would actually create such a huge trouble for himself.A case that had already pleaded guilty and pleaded guilty, and was settled, made this situation.

There was an unprecedented tension in the conference room.The reason why I was nervous, besides the trouble that the lawyer suddenly brought to the university, was more important——

Vice President Takeuchi will also come to this meeting in person to hear a report on Morimoto's corruption case.The vice president who single-handedly carried out drastic reforms at Kyoto University is a university leader who has always been known for his ruthless management style.A pathbreaker who dared to declare that "university does not support idlers" and directly attacked many professors.

Before Vice President Takeuchi came to the meeting room, just the name card on the table already exuded an oppressive aura.To this day, Takeuchi's name is even majestic and intimidating like an emperor in the management of Kyoto University.Some people can't imagine what kind of comments Takeuchi will make on this case when he comes to the scene.

Okawara swallowed, looked at the teacup next to him, picked it up, and was about to take a sip to relieve the dryness in his throat.At this moment, there was a sound of clear high-heeled shoes, and suddenly an administrator walked in quickly, "Vice-principal Takeuchi is here!"

The hurried voice showed the administrator's fear of the vice principal.

This method of announcing his arrival to everyone here in advance also reveals how powerful the vice-principal's power has reached.

It is impossible for a researcher to be involved in embezzlement of public funds to attract the attention of someone at the level of the vice principal.But now, that male lawyer has forced this powerful figure from Kyoto University to attend the meeting in person to show his true face and come to study countermeasures...
