Tokyo Barrister: Start the law firm bankruptcy

Chapter 684 Middle-aged People

Kitahara's words fell.

The entire conference room was silent. The city hall officials sitting in their seats did not even dare to make a sound. They remained silent.

The judge of the case, Iwasa, seemed to be completely stunned on the stage.

The series of rhetorical questions raised by this young man in his final statement were enough to make all the officials present feel ashamed.

Those in high positions should ask themselves, have they obeyed the law?

The city hall officials who usually sit in their offices and make things difficult for companies suddenly felt as if a sword was hanging over their heads.

Thinking of what they had done in the past, they began to feel inexplicably frightened.

Originally, it was a dirty thing that only you and I knew, but no one else knew.

After the young man's final statement, they felt a pair of eyes staring at them.

Raise your head three feet and there is a god.

The city hall officials were frightened because of the statement made by the lawyer before them.

People who hold power are actually very vulnerable.

They have an army of thousands capable of crushing the rebels.

However, he was afraid of the historian's pen.

Afraid of what people on the street would say.

When what they did was told, they were scared.

Time passed by minute by minute, and the air in the conference room seemed to freeze.

At this moment, a man who looked like a secretary came in from the back door, walked quickly to the front, stood beside the judge Iwasa, bent down and whispered.

Iwasa frowned slightly after hearing this, then nodded. After the secretary left, he pondered for a few minutes, finally coughed, and said:

"Both parties have completed their statements. According to normal procedures, the administrative ruling on this case will be released in written form later. However, I just received a piece of news. This news may have an impact on the procedure of this case. It is not ruled out that the Tokyo Metropolitan Finance Bureau will make preliminary rulings on some applications in this case and postpone the ruling on other applications."

After hearing Iwasa's words, everyone present couldn't help but feel tense again.

Ishiwatari didn't know what happened. But according to Iwasa, the case might be postponed? If it was postponed, was it because something happened? Something that was good for the city hall?
Ishiwatari was already upset and angry because Kitahara returned safely.

Now that he saw that the Tokyo Metropolitan Finance Bureau might postpone the decision, his mood suddenly turned positive again.

Miyakawa also heard from Iwasa's words that the case was going to be postponed. She suddenly became nervous. The case would not be postponed without special circumstances. Could something go wrong again?
The beautiful lawyer's hands were unconsciously clasped together tightly.

There was a hint of worry on his pretty face.

President Hamanaka, who was sitting in the back seat, was extremely nervous. This morning was like a roller coaster. First, our lawyers had the upper hand, and then the Tokyo Securities Regulatory Bureau came to take the lawyers away.

To be honest, the moment I saw Kitahara being taken away.

What he felt was guilt.

Sorry about this lawyer.

The second thing that is felt is fear.

Will I be taken away like this too?

Afterwards, Kitahara returned to the scene without incident again, and Hamanaka felt hopeful again.

Now the Tokyo Metropolitan Finance Bureau says there is an emergency and the ruling may be postponed.

what's going on?
My own business can no longer wait.

If we wait any longer, we will go bankrupt.

Hamanaka slowly bent down and covered his face with his hands.

He didn't even dare to listen anymore.

The next second, I heard Iwasa's voice:

"We just received news that the special investigation team set up by the Tokyo Metropolitan Assembly is preparing to enter the High-tech Industrial Park to investigate whether there are any illegal bidding issues. The investigation team was set up by the Tokyo Metropolitan Assembly more than a month ago. This investigation team aims to audit and verify the financial expenditure of Shinjuku District in previous years."

"In order to prevent the Tokyo Metropolitan Finance Department from making a decision inconsistent with the investigation team regarding illegal bidding, we will carefully contact and discuss with the investigation team. We promise to make a ruling within the statutory time." "If Shinjuku City Hall wants to reconcile with the applicant, it can continue negotiations."

"If there are no further questions, this case is now closed."

Iwasa brings explosive news.

That is, the investigation team of the Tokyo Metropolitan Assembly decided to conduct an on-site audit of this project!!!
Upon hearing Iwasa's news, Ishiwatari froze in place.

It’s over.

It's really over now.

Just now, Iwasa said that in order to avoid the Tokyo Metropolitan Finance Department making a different determination from the Tokyo Metropolitan Assembly, the two sides will contact and discuss.

This means that the materials in this case will be sent to the Tokyo Metropolitan Assembly for review.

In other words, every clue of bidding fraud uncovered by the lawyer named Kitahara will be reviewed in detail by the investigation team of the Metropolitan Council.

Think about the clues - there are even ridiculous things like the same IP address for sending different bidding emails. How could the Tokyo Metropolitan Assembly let this go and not pursue it relentlessly? !

My future career——

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

Finished!

Ishiwatari lost his balance and nearly fell to the ground. His hair was messy and his eyes were dull. This former powerful figure in Shinjuku was panicking.

President Hamanaka was confused by what Iwasa said. However, he looked up and saw the two young lawyers. Lawyer Miyakawa gave him an "OK" gesture, while Lawyer Kitahara nodded and smiled.

Is it good news?

Binzhong was a little bit unconvinced, and his hands were shaking a little.

After a while, the two young lawyers walked up to him. Beiyuan said:

"The Tokyo Metropolitan Assembly has already intervened in this case. Shinjuku City Hall cannot withstand the pressure from the local council. If they have a keen sense of smell, they will definitely settle this matter with you in advance and pay off the municipal engineering fees owed to you. According to my personal estimate, the city hall should come to you in no more than two weeks. As for the degree of cooperation you are willing to go to, whether you will withdraw the case if the city hall pays you, or you do what you want to do. It is up to you to decide what to do then."

Listening to the speech of the young man in front of me.

Gradually, Hamayama's eyes became blurred.

From the first time I met these two young men.

Along the way.

See how these two young men are fighting with City Hall in this building.

So much so that the city hall retaliated against him.

I am clearly a middle-aged person who should take responsibility.

But the one who saved him was the young man in front of him.

A tear ran down the face of this strong president.

He quietly raised his hand to wipe it away so that no one would notice.

Hamanaka choked up, "Thank you! Lawyer Kitahara!! Thank you so much!! On behalf of the more than 50 employees in the company, thank you. It's you who saved this company!!"

The middle-aged man was able to control his emotions at first.

However, the humiliation suffered in the past, the tremendous pressure during this period of time, and everything that had been endured were finally relieved at this moment.

He couldn't hold back his emotions after all and burst into tears in the conference room...

……

……

Just as Kitahara expected, afterward, the Shinjuku City Hall could no longer withstand the pressure from the Tokyo Metropolitan Assembly and took the initiative to find President Hamanaka and others, saying that they could pay off the overdue municipal engineering fees, but hoped to withdraw the application for this case.

As a concession, President Hamanaka and others agreed to the request to revoke the confirmation of illegality of the bidding project, but insisted on making the information of the project involved public for review by the Tokyo Metropolitan Assembly's investigation team and the public.

Soon, the media began to publicly report on this administrative adjudication case. Suddenly, doubts about the high-tech park project were overwhelming, and TV programs and news magazines were all filled with reports about this case.

Under pressure from the media, Shinjuku City Hall held a press conference...
