Chapter 248 Conversation in front of the Tribunal
Monday, 12:07, Tokyo High Court, 2nd floor.
The lawsuit to demolish the hotel's load-bearing columns has ended, and the bloody smell of the fighting seems to have spread throughout the entire trial building. In the long corridor on the second floor, the midday sun shines through the colorful glass of the windows onto the ground
, forming several light red spots in the corridor, as if they were the blood stains left over from this vigorous battle. In the corridor, many portraits of justices were hung on both sides. The court hearings in the past few days were destined to become a
This is an important part of the history of the tribunal.
With a "ding" sound, the elevator door on one side of the corridor slowly opened. A young man in a gray suit, carrying a briefcase, walked out of the elevator. Behind him was a woman of about the same age as him, dragging the little man with him.
The suitcase, which seemed to contain a file, followed his footsteps closely.
Beiyuan stepped into the corridor on the second floor, his eyebrows relaxed slightly. After several days of tense court hearings, he could not help but relax a little at this moment. When he was about to turn around and ask Miyagawa behind him what he wanted to eat for lunch, a
A voice suddenly sounded from behind.
"That boy. Yes, his name is Beiyuan."
Turning around, I saw a man in his thirties and a woman in her twenties standing on the other side of the corridor. The sunlight passing through the window made the shadows of the two people long. The man had a bunch of bangs.
With her combed hair like little cream hands and an arrogant expression on her face, she is none other than Gu Meimen.
After several days of court hearings, the two barristers finally met for the first time outside the court. In the long corridor on the second floor of the High Tribunal, the two lawyers stood opposite each other on the other side of the corridor.
Beiyuan raised the corners of his mouth slightly, nodded slightly, and said hello, "Why, Lawyer Gu Meimen."
Gu Meimen looked at the young man in front of him carefully. He still didn't believe that such a newly graduated college student in front of him was inextricably linked to this lawsuit. However, for the facts that had happened, no matter what happened,
No matter how much he questioned, it was in vain. He had to admit that the young man in front of him was qualified to compete with him.
"Young man, you are very good and very strong." Gu Meimen still had that somewhat arrogant look on his face, but his eyes showed a rare look of admiration. For some reason, Gu Meimen even felt that the young man in front of him,
can be his friend.
"Lawyer Gu Meimen, that's ridiculous." Beiyuan looked at the lawyer opposite. The hearty battle during this trial could also be said to be his complete battle for recovery.
For masters, when they can meet opponents competing on the same stage and who are comparable to each other, they will usually feel a sense of cherishing heroes, and Kitahara is not immune to this.
"Do you want to work in my law firm? I have a hunch that maybe a lot of interesting things can happen through our cooperation." Gu Meimen stared at the young male lawyer in front of him and smiled.
"Unfortunately, I have encountered some difficult things recently. I am unable to respond to this kind invitation." Kitahara nodded slightly to express his thanks.
"If you are free, you are welcome to come to my office and have a drink. I am always welcome." Gu Meimen replied.
At this moment, Machiko was watching the conversation between the two lawyers. She didn't feel anything at first, but gradually the corners of her mouth began to twitch, as if she couldn't stand the scene in front of her, and finally said:
"I said, Lawyer Gu Meimen, and Lawyer Beihara, can't you stand closer to each other when talking? Why do you have to stand alone at the other end of the corridor, and stand alone at this end of the corridor, talking so far away?
Aren't you tired?"
Machiko's words made this rather artistic scene suddenly fall to the ground like a porcelain bowl and break into pieces.
Gu Meimen's eyebrows were almost twisted together. She turned her head and said to Machiko, "You are the only one who talks too much! You have bow legs! You really don't understand anything."
When Kitahara heard Machiko's words, he couldn't help but break his skills for a second and coughed slightly to cover up his embarrassment.
Next, the two lawyers had to face each other and walked toward each other.
The two people stood in front of each other.
This moment is the real meeting between the two people.
Komemon took out his business card from his suit pocket and handed it to the man in front of him, "As I said just now, you are welcome to visit me at any time. My office is in Jiyugaoka, Meguro District, Tokyo."
Kitahara also took out his business card from his side pocket and handed it to the lawyer in front of him, "I also welcome Lawyer Gu Meimen to visit me at any time. My firm is here in Shinjuku City."
The two barristers exchanged business cards with each other, and their fates intertwined in some way at this moment.
At the moment of exchanging business cards, Gu Meimen stepped forward slightly and whispered, "In this lawsuit, I also investigated the incident of the loss of 500 million yen pledged warehouse receipts at Eto Law Firm. I'm afraid there is nothing behind it.
It’s simple, I hope you will be more careful. If you need help, you can call at any time.”
Beiyuan stretched out his hand and shook it vigorously with Gu Meimen.
At this moment, there is no need to say thank you politely.
A tacit understanding can naturally be reached between two strong men.
After some more greetings, the two lawyers said goodbye to each other and walked in opposite directions. After walking five or six steps, Beiyuan looked back at the lawyer's back, and then looked at the hand on Gu Meimen's hand.
briefcase, decided to remind him:
"Lawyer Gu Meimen. The Playboy magazine in your briefcase is exposed."
The figure who was about to leave gracefully couldn't help but paused when he heard this reminder, and then looked down at the briefcase in his hand. A gossip magazine was stuck on the zipper, and a photo of a girl wearing a somewhat revealing dress was exposed.
It came out, and the title vaguely read: "The evil woman of the world, Takaka Ando."
Gu Meimen coughed slightly, turned around and said seriously, "This is not Playboy. This is preparation information for me to go to the detention center in the afternoon to meet with the client."
"Okay. I wish you good luck." Beiyuan waved his hand, "See you again this time. See you later."
As soon as the words fell, Beitahara and Miyagawa turned around and walked towards the other end of the corridor.
After Gu Meimen packed up his briefcase, he looked back at Kitahara's back, then turned around and walked forward with his head held high. He found this young man named Kitahara more and more interesting.
After walking for about ten steps, Machiko's complaining voice came again from behind Gu Meimon, "Mr. Lawyer, isn't the gate of the court in the direction where Kitahara and the others walked? Why do we have to fight against them in the corridor?
Which direction to go?!"
"What do you know?! Bow legs!"
Chapter completed!
