Chapter 21 What to do
A few days later.
5:10 p.m.
Tokyo, Shinjuku Ward, City Hall Building.
Ishiwatari was sitting in his office, starting to pack up documents and getting ready to get off work. Previously, as the deputy director of the local city hall development committee, he was summoned to the Tokyo District Council for questioning. Although he got through it smoothly, it also consumed a lot of his energy. Today
It was rare that there were fewer things to do, so he wanted to go back and rest early.
On the desktop, there are also documents indicating that the Tokyo Metropolitan Assembly's special investigation team is about to arrive.
The document bears the seal of the Metropolitan Assembly.
Ishiwatari looked at the document and sneered. At present, except for necessary financial expenditures, such as salaries, emergency social welfare projects, etc., the Shinjuku City Hall has suspended all other expenditures.
Regarding this situation, Ishiwatari was not panicked. He had always looked down upon these local council members. He did not think that these people who were good at talking and only knew how to put on a show in front of the public could have any real abilities.
The audit of expenditures is a highly technical activity.
Ishiwatari doesn't think these local council bosses have this ability.
He even thought that maybe those Tokyo Metropolitan MPs couldn't even understand the audit report.
What's more, the corners of Ishiwatari's mouth couldn't help but raise higher. Now, the special investigation team has launched such a big battle and stopped so many expenditures of the city hall. This will definitely not last long.
If the shutdown continues, citizens will sooner or later become disgruntled.
If nothing is found in the end, it will turn into a disadvantage for the opposition members in the election.
Ishiwa tidied his clothes, took his briefcase, and walked out of the office.
In the huge office of the municipal building, the clerks were supposed to be working at their respective workstations, typing on the keyboard.
However, at this moment, for some unknown reason, many people gathered near the front desk and formed a circle, as if watching such a surprising thing.
The crowd of people watching would point and point with their hands from time to time, and whisper and whisper to each other from time to time.
This scene is very different from the usual work scenes.
When Shidu saw the crowd, he frowned slightly. He had always been a very strict person towards his subordinates, so he was naturally unhappy when he saw so many people at the front desk watching something.
He immediately stepped forward, intending to scold him.
In the crowd, someone noticed Ishiwa approaching and showed a rather flustered expression. He wanted to say something, but didn't.
Shidu pushed aside the crowd, raised his voice a little and said, "What are you doing here! What are you doing!"
Arriving in the middle, Ishiwatari found an opened document package on the ground with a thick stack of materials inside.
At this time, Shidu noticed——
Next to the package stood a postal employee, while a city hall clerk grabbed his sleeve.
The postal employee's face turned a little red, as if he had been treated roughly like this, and he was already angry, "Hey!! I said you from the city hall, there is a package delivered to you, why don't you sign for it. You have already opened the package, at least you
You need to sign for it! Why are you holding me like this!"
"We cannot sign for this material, please return it!" said the clerk who grabbed the sleeve of the postal employee. "Whether we can sign for it, we must ask our in-house lawyer for instructions."
"No?! You are open now and doing business, why can't you sign for it?! How can our postal service wait for you to ask for instructions slowly? We have to wait until then?!"
Shidu was a little confused when he heard the quarrel between the two people. How could signing a document cause a dispute? Shidu didn't think much and said directly to the clerk: "The sending and receiving of official documents should be done according to the rules. What are you arguing with a postal employee?
.Keep the materials we don’t want to receive and return them to the issuing authority according to the procedures.”
Ishiwatari took the receipt form from the post office and scribbled it down.
The clerk's eyes widened immediately when he saw this scene. He wanted to reach out to stop him, but it was too late, "Shi Du... Deputy Chief Shi Du! That is... that is... that is!"
Shidu ignored the staff. At this time, he glanced at the materials still on the ground and couldn't help but feel even more dissatisfied, "You picked up the materials, why are they still on the ground?!"
The voice fell.
The clerks around looked at each other.
For a moment, no one picked up the documents.
It's as if this is a package coated with poison.
There was fear in the clerk's eyes, a fear of taking responsibility.
Shi Du was also a little stunned for a moment. He couldn't help but look at the documents on the ground, and then picked them up.
Open the first page, which is the delivery receipt.
Seeing the words "receipt of service", Shidu felt strange. He had never received such an official document before.
Turning down another page, he immediately saw the title of the document——
"Notice of the Convening of the Administrative Arbitration Review Meeting of the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Department of Finance".
Then, my eyes began to browse the documents.
Shidu's eyes gradually opened wide, and the hand holding the document seemed to be shaking slightly because of some anger. Shidu was an extremely smart person, and even though he had never been in contact with the law, he quickly understood what was happening in front of him.
This document told him that a company named Nobu Tadakatsu Industrial Co., Ltd. had gathered a total of six clubs, which were all companies participating in the high-tech industrial park bidding project. These clubs are now filing an administrative ruling with the Tokyo Metropolitan Finance Department, asking Shinjuku City to
City Hall corrects illegal behavior in high-tech park bidding project.
Shidu suddenly felt dizzy due to the surge of energy and blood.
Anger quickly flooded his brain.
These companies that rely on City Hall projects for their livelihood... actually dare to challenge the decisions made by City Hall.
Something beyond Ishiwatari's imagination happened.
He never thought that a company that relied on itself to make a living would dare to challenge him!
It’s the other way around!
It turned out to be the other way around!!
Ishiwatari then scanned the lawyers representing these clubs. He was a lawyer from Eto Law Firm named Kitahara Giichi. A law firm whose name he had never heard of, and a lawyer whose name he had never heard of. He didn’t know where he came from.
Lawyer Lu Zi. He actually dared to encourage companies to sue the city hall.

Doesn’t this lawyer want to be a part of Tokyo’s legal circles?!
Shidu immediately had veins popping out, "Why didn't you remind me just now! Didn't you remind me!"
No one around dared to reply.
Everyone lowered their heads, not daring to look at the deputy director of the Development Committee.
"A bunch of pigs!!!" Shidu slammed the document packaging bag directly on a staff member next to him, then immediately returned to the office and closed the door with a "bang" sound.
The anger only lasted for a few minutes before fear surged into Shidu's heart.
Ishiwatari was angry because he felt humiliated. Before, he had never heard of an administrative ruling being filed against the Shinjuku City Hall. And this was probably the first case. Yes, what a coincidence, but it happened
The first administrative adjudication case came for my own project.
This is a naked provocation.
However, besides being angry, he felt scared.
Because, it is now a sensitive moment when the Tokyo Metropolitan Assembly investigation team is stationed.
If they knew...
Shidu couldn't imagine it.
what to do?
What should we do?!
Suddenly, the office phone rang.
The ringtone was extremely harsh at this moment.
Shi Du was not in the mood to answer the phone. He wanted to hang up directly, but after hesitating for a moment, he picked up the call.
A woman's voice came from the receiver.
Shidu recognized this voice.
This voice is Jiang Lizi.
Yes, when Kitahara was in Kyoto, the owner of the business card found in Eto's damaged car was known as the controller of underground gray industries in Shinjuku City. The woman who had previously served as a senior executive at the Tokyo Central Industrial Bank - Eriko
