As the first-instance verdict of the case of Terai v. Kawamoto Expressway came out, Kawamoto Expressway issued a statement agreeing to abort the lawsuit and will launch settlement negotiations on the subsequent class action. Although the subsequent group lawsuits have been fierce, due to the majority of

The registrants participating in the class action lawsuit did not have sufficient factual materials. Sakai Law Firm and Nishimura Law Firm, which undertook the class action lawsuit, were also willing to start settlement negotiations with Kawamoto Expressway.

The tense atmosphere immediately calmed down.

Gradually, although this highway-related controversy still exists, it has gradually withdrawn from the attention of public opinion.

The two plaintiff lawyers in this lawsuit were regarded by the media as two immature "college graduate" lawyers who filed this lawsuit against a listed company and produced a standardized narrative of praise.

Rather than giving credit to the plaintiff's lawyers, the media is more willing to believe that the judge played a greater role in this lawsuit.

However, only those who personally participated in the trial can truly understand the horror of the lawyer named Kitahara Yiichi. In places where people cannot see it, the name Kitahara Yiichi has aroused the suspicion of some senior people in the legal profession.

focus on.

…

A few days later.

Morning, Shinjuku City, Eto Law Firm.

Beiyuan sat in front of the computer, his eyes fixed on the screen, and his expression seemed a little solemn. This nervous expression had never appeared before, even before the anxious trial.

In an instant, the screen refreshed.

The mobile phone on the desktop also vibrated, and a text message from the bank was sent.

"Mitsubishi Bank: Your account 6268978435789XX65682 received a remittance of YEN15,800,000 at 10:27. For details, please call 0120-309-333 for enquiries."

Nearly 16 million in legal fees arrived. The moment he saw the bank account numbers flashing, Kitahara showed a comfortable smile, "Hi. Sure enough, in my career as a lawyer, I still have to decide whether I can receive the client's legal fees.

This moment is the most stressful.”

Although there is still a certain distance between the debt of 500 million yen... Well... let's forget it for now... I have wine today and I will be drunk today... If you are proud of life, you must have fun...

Beiyuan sipped the black tea on the table and whistled rather leisurely.

At the door, there was a sudden push of the door, followed by Miyagawa's voice, "Kitahara! Look who's coming!"

The glass door was pushed open, and Miyagawa led a couple into the law firm. The couple carried large and small bags, as if they were preparing to go on a long trip. The people who came were none other than Mr. and Mrs. Terai.

Terai dragged his suitcase and wore a leather jacket with a smile on his face. As soon as he walked into the law firm, he shouted: "Lawyer Kitahara! I'm here to say goodbye!"

Kitahara stood up from his seat and smiled, "Mr. Terai, where are you going with such a dusty life?"

Terai pressed his hand on the handle of the suitcase and said with a smile: "Haha. The company specially sponsored the expenses this time. I decided to go to the West to further study automotive engineering technology. After completing my studies, I will return to Japan to continue my career as an engineer.

position. You young people work so hard, I have to take action and cannot fall behind."

"Does your wife agree to traveling across the ocean?" Beihara walked to Terai, smiled evilly, and whispered.

Terai was speechless after hearing this, and then held back a few words: "She...she also complained at first. However, when she thought of living in the West for a while and taking some beautiful photos to show off in front of her girlfriends, she also

I feel relieved. Now she is the only one who packs her luggage more actively than me."

In the law firm, Nazujiang pulled Miyagawa to a far corner and started talking to him, as if he was teaching some "Thirty-Six Stratagems" about feelings. Although his voice was much lowered, Nazujiang's somewhat sharp voice could still be heard.

"Don't be too nice to men."

"You have to hang him and make him pay."

"Girls can't spoil themselves."

"Understand? Little girl."

Miyagawa was beside him, his face turned red and white, he was at a loss, and he didn't know where to place his hands. From time to time, his mouth opened slightly, as if he had heard some shocking ideas, and then he quickly put his index finger to his mouth and said "Shhh"

For a moment, ask Najinjiang not to make too loud a sound.

Terai also noticed two women, one old and one young, chattering in the distance, and couldn't help but smile: "I think that girl is a good match for you. Don't you have any ideas?"

Beiyuan coughed hard and just smiled without answering.

"Okay, I won't bother you anymore, Lawyer Kitahara. Anyway, thank you so much for this lawsuit." Terai said with a smile, "But it will take several years to come back after setting off to the West. I have something important.

, I want to give it to Lawyer Kitahara as a souvenir."

Terai fumbled around and took out a box and handed it to Beihara.

When the box was opened, a beige screw was placed inside the box. Ordinary screws are made of stainless steel, but the screws in this small box seemed to be shaped by some kind of gelatin, which was particularly unique.

"This is -?" Beiyuan couldn't help but feel a little strange when he saw this special screw.

"This is a resin screw. It is the masterpiece of a junior high school classmate of mine a long time ago. It can be said to be the rarest craft of screw products. I think as an engineer, the only thing I can give away is these insignificant handicrafts. Those parts of the car,

I searched all over, but couldn't find one that was beautiful and light. After much deliberation, only the resin screws from an old classmate of mine could be used."

"Mr. Terai, what are you talking about? It is these handicrafts that shine with the wisdom of engineers. It is these things that are the priceless treasures of a country." Kitahara picked up the screws in the box, put them in the palm of his hand, and started to play with them, and then

Asked: "How is your junior high school classmate doing now?"

"Things have changed, and now he is no longer here. However, he has a son named Naoki, who now works in a bank. I heard it is a big bank."

Terai sighed slightly, then waved to Nazujiang who was in the law firm, "Old lady, it's time to go. Don't bring that little girl with you!"

"What are you talking about!!" Najinjiang replied angrily.

Then, after some pleasantries at the door of the law firm, Mr. and Mrs. Terai said goodbye with some reluctance.

Downstairs at the law firm, Terai took a taxi, took his suitcase, and various large and small bags, put them in the back seat, then opened the door and got into the back seat.

"Tokyo Haneda International Airport!" Terai said to the driver in the car.

Then, the taxi started and the scenery outside the window began to reverse. Terai pressed the door handle and glanced back at the law office. I really hope that lawyer Kitahara can be with the girl named Miyagawa, Terai thought.

The girl named Miyagawa, although she looks a little reserved on the outside, she is still very sunny on the inside.

However, that Kitahara lawyer... In the process of meeting and contacting Kitahara, Terai gradually realized something terrible about this young man:

This young man named Beiyuan has never had even a trace of beautiful imagination about this world. This young man's heart seems to be a bottomless black hole of abyss, where there is only cold and ruthless calculation of interests.
