I teach kendo in Tokyo

Amao then stayed in the reception room until "Mr. Takai" returned to the office.

Mr. Gao Jing, who had just returned, pushed open the door of the reception room and saw that Amao was reading the file seriously, so he knocked on the already opened door.

Amao raised his head and smiled after seeing Gao Jing: "Senior, are you done with your work?"

"Yes. How is the situation here?"

Amao suddenly raised his eyebrows, put down the pen in his hand, and sighed: "It seems like the court record is just sophistry."

"It's just sophistry." Takai blinked, "It's sophistry and taking advantage of legal loopholes. That's what we did in this series of cases. But you see, we didn't do anything harmful. After all, Hyuga Company didn't let anyone People disappeared, and no one was killed. They didn’t do anything evil, they just played a relatively realistic joke on the plaintiff.”

Amao replied solemnly: "If there is no negative consequences, even if it is a violation of the law, can it be treated as if it is not a violation of the law? Why don't I remember that the law is such a child's play?"

Takai just laughed.

Amao continued to question: "In my opinion, this case has obviously illegally restricted personal freedom, and should be regarded as illegal detention. The other party's lawyer also raised this point."

"Did you propose it?" Gao Jing was shocked.

"you do not know?"

"This case was not handled by me. It was handled by me. I can't even chat with you in the office now. I must have led a group of colleagues to the Metropolitan Police Department."

Amao: "Then look at it, the court trial record here clearly records the speech of the other party's lawyer. The senior brother responsible for defending Hyuga Company responded that Hyuga Company did not deprive personal freedom, and the room was not locked from beginning to end. door and did not tie up the plaintiff."

"Well, then?" Tao Jing asked cooperatively.

"I think this is contradictory. If there was no detention, why didn't the plaintiff escape, but was honestly detained in their company for three days?"

"Maybe it's because I don't have the courage. This is normal. Not everyone learns martial arts from a violent master like you."

Amao clapped his hands and said: "Why can't the plaintiff leave because he lacks courage? So you also admit that there is coercion and intimidation, right?"

Tao Jing was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said, "Don't think of me as the subject of a re-enactment of the trial. I just said it casually. If I had known that you wanted to engage in a mock debate, I naturally wouldn't have said that. "

"No, Senior Takai's answer happened to be the response of the senior brothers during the trial. But the plaintiff's lawyer did not seize this opportunity to counterattack, and missed an excellent opportunity to fight back."

Amao patted the file vigorously: "In other cases, I think there are factors where the other party's lawyer did not perform well. I also asked the secretary to help me get the information of the firm that competed with the brothers in this case. As a result, I found that they were all little-known firms.

"The few times we faced off against relatively well-known law firms, they ended up being settled out of court, and Hyuga Company lost a lot of money. It shows that these sophistry is not as invincible as it seems on the surface. If you find the pain points and attack them hard, It is possible for the top executives of Hyuga Company to be imprisoned for kidnapping."

Tao Jing scratched his head: "Well... what, let's settle this matter out of court. It is not entirely the result of the court debate. Those who can afford big law firms are either rich or expensive, so it is normal to make some compromises. We In the industry, this kind of out-of-court settlement is considered a win. We win.

"Do you understand? Here's the problem. There is no right or wrong in the adult world, only transactions."

Amao asked seriously: "If there is no right or wrong, then doesn't justice also exist?"

"Yeah, it's an adult world." Takai shrugged.

Amao stood up suddenly: "No! What's wrong is wrong."

He picked up the file, stood it up, and unfolded the inner pages towards Takai: "From what is written here, it is obvious that the Hyuga Company is breaking the law. They kidnapped and illegally detained them, and they should be punished. I don't understand, brothers. Don’t you have any qualms about your conscience when you are making excuses for this company? Have you never thought about how you would feel one day when your wife and daughter are invited to a surprise party by Hyuga Company? "

Takai: "First of all, I am not responsible for this case. Secondly, I think it's okay. They were not personally threatened, nor did they do anything. Rape is a criminal case, and the files in your hand are all civil."

Amao: "As long as kidnapping and illegal detention are established, the case will be converted into a criminal case. This is not uncommon. There are even cases where the prosecutor refused to initiate a lawsuit. As a result, the victim's family filed a civil lawsuit and it was converted into a criminal case during the trial. "

"If you can do this kind of thing, you will definitely become a famous barrister in Tokyo." Takai said, "You will have a bigger brand than our entire law firm combined."

"Is it like Gumei Law Firm?" Amao asked.

This is the legal advisor of the Nanjo family, a barrister, and of course his brand is very big.

Takai: "Yes, just like Komei."

Amao put the file he was holding on the table, closed it, and pushed it forward: "Thank you for showing me these court records. It is of great help. Now I am sure that even without Miss Mieko Oshiba's testimony, I have a way to deal with these. sophistry."

Tao Jing spread his hands: "Well, I think the senior brothers in charge of this case will be very happy to know the news. They have long felt that what the Hyuga Group is doing is not so upright. You have successfully brought down the senior leaders of the Hyuga Company. If they are sent to prison, maybe they can get a good night’s sleep after a long time.”

Amao raised his voice slightly: "Since I have long thought that there is a problem with this company, why..."

"They give you a lot," Gao Jing interrupted Amao, "Lawyers also have to eat. You can't use your sense of justice to feed a family, right?"

Amao was speechless for a moment.

"Are you married?" Gao Jing asked.

"No."

"Do you have a girlfriend? When I first came back, I heard my secretary talking on the phone to her best friend, saying that she was broken up in love. Damn it, you were the one who dumped her, right?"

Amao nodded: "It's me."

"Then think about the expenses you spend with your girlfriend. You have to treat the girls to a high-end restaurant in Daikanyama for a Western meal, right? If you treat her to a Western meal, you have to take her to visit those boutiques, right? What if she brings a cheap one? Bao, she’s looked down upon by the rich ladies in the restaurant, why don’t you buy her a Louis Vuitton?”

Amao: "As for Chiyoko, she will probably sell her Louis Vuitton to a pawn shop as soon as she receives it. No, I don't have a girlfriend! I just have a very good friend."

"Then you can't devote all your efforts to building a friendship with her? Justice cannot be eaten for a living."

Amao frowned, then took out his Tokyo University student ID card: "Can this be used as food?"

"Okay, let's get married." Gao Jing said concisely.

Amao took out the badge of the Lawyers Association again, which was proof that he passed the judicial examination and obtained the lawyer's qualification: "Can this be used as food?"

"Okay, Jackal." Gao Jing replied again.

"Then add this to this..."

"Stop making trouble. Our entire law firm is composed of lawyers who graduated from Dongda University. Do you think we look like knights of justice? Legal wolves can just be legal wolves. When you become a barrister, you will naturally stand for justice with a scale in your hand in the future. .”

Amao looked serious: "Senior, I will prove you wrong. What happened this time..."

"You probably don't need to appear in this matter, because there are tainted witnesses this time, and it is most likely that the prosecutor of the Tokyo District Prosecutor's Office will initiate the prosecution. In cases where prosecutors initiate prosecution, the prosecutor is usually responsible for the defense, and there is no lawyer. thing."

Amao: "That's right...so are you sure that the Tokyo Prosecutor's Office will file the lawsuit now?"

"In this kind of case with a tainted witness, unless the witness retracts his confession in court, the outcome is doomed from the beginning. Generally speaking, prosecutors will rush to prosecute such cases, which is equivalent to free performance."

For a moment, Amao looked quite regretful.

Tao Jing laughed out loud: "You don't have to be so disappointed. Although you are missing the part of personally defending justice, justice has still been done. Or do you think that justice that is not done by you cannot be considered justice?"

"I didn't think so... But now that this case is finalized, what are the seniors in charge of this case busy with?"

"Of course it's a last-ditch effort. For cases like this, you usually have to show that you are dedicated to your duties until the last moment."

Amao: "That's right. Anyway, thank you for showing me the court record. The police will definitely not provide it to me."

"The police don't have this kind of thing. After all, it's a civil lawsuit." Gao Jing said, "You came just to see this record?"

"Yes, I heard about this from my master. In addition, the girl kidnapped this time is a girl from our dojo, who is my fellow junior sister, so I came to watch the trial and take care of her."

"Then you don't have to worry. Unless the tainted witness makes a deal with someone else and decides not to testify, this matter is basically a done deal."

Amao curled his lips: "Don't set up a flag casually. It's usually said like this in TV dramas. The next step should be..."

"The witness should be targeted by the killer, and then the agents of the Witness Protection Program will fight the killer for three hundred rounds, right?"

"No, that's an American movie. I remember we... didn't have a witness protection program, right?"

Takai thought for a while: "It seems not. But Japan is a safe country, and it probably doesn't need a witness protection plan as urgently as the United States."

In fact, the Witness Protection Plan is really known to the public through Baiswarzenegger's blockbuster "Evaporation Order". After "Evaporation Order" became popular, Japan also began to discuss whether to have its own witness protection plan, and the discussion ended Twenty years later, it is still under discussion.

However, this film will not be filmed for eleven years, and there is currently no proposal in the Japanese Parliament to establish a witness protection program.

Amao: "Excuse me for disturbing you today. Thank you for the records you provided. I won't take up your time anymore."

"You're welcome. Say hello to Kiryu-san for me. The last time he came to our place, I happened to be away. He went to play golf and I didn't meet him. It's not bad that I met the first disciple of his legendary mission today. He can go home. Blow it with my daughter."

Amao nodded: "I strive to live like my master as much as possible. Farewell."

"I'll take you downstairs." Gao Jing said diligently.

Metropolitan Police Department.

A customer visited the Takata Police Department in the interrogation room during lunch time that day.

Inspector Mukagawa sat down opposite Takada and asked with a smile: "How does it feel to spend a day in the interrogation room?"

"It's terrible. I finally understand why we usually keep suspects in the interrogation room for 48 hours, and they are willing to say something." Takada teased, "If we can extend the detention time from 48 hours to 72 hours, no Knowing how much more efficient the police will be in solving crimes will increase.”

Xiangchuan smiled, and suddenly said seriously: "This time you are likely to go to prison. In the words of the Taoist, it is called squatting. Is there any wish you want to fulfill before going in? I will try my best to satisfy you. Ah, It doesn’t matter what it is, even though I’m a police officer, I can’t bring a prostitute into the interrogation room.”

Takada slammed the table hard: "Damn it! Are you just giving up on me?"

"We don't give up on anyone, but in this situation... don't worry, you will be assigned a private room inside, and I will say hello to the prison and take better care of you. When you come out, you can work as a consultant at Siling Heavy Industries. , you can take your girl to play golf every day."

Takada was about to have an attack, but he immediately controlled himself. He clasped his fingers together and rubbed them continuously while whispering: "Give me a chance. I almost taught Kiryu Kazuma a lesson!"

"Really? What I saw was," Mukagawa leaned closer to Takada, "Our love was defeated on the battlefield, and then he became so angry that he tried to use other methods to win the game."

Takada was slightly relieved at this time, because if Mukagawa dared to say such things, it meant that the recording equipment in this room was turned off, and nothing he said would be recorded.

"Give me time! I can make that Rina Hinami become my partner, and even act as a double agent for Kiryu! Think about it! No matter what Kiryu and Ma want to do, we will know everything!"

Xiangchuan asked back: "Just to know this, do we have to risk becoming kidnappers?"

"If I'm exposed again, I'll go to jail." Takada leaned forward and said earnestly, "Please, trust me once."

Mukagawa: "Sorry, your value is not that great yet. Remember, don't say anything superfluous, just insist that you want to make a joke with Hinami Rina, and then go in and serve your sentence. Don't worry, you won't be sentenced to a long time, We will say hello to the court. Japanese judges still have greater autonomy in sentencing than in countries with pure statutory law."

After saying that, Xiangchuan stood up and was about to leave. Takada suddenly said: "Wait a minute! There is a way to get me out of the crime without a lot of trouble!"

Xiangchuan was about to turn around, but turned back when he heard what he said: "Tell me about it."

"Use that, that."

"That doesn't work every time. Are you trying to gamble on the odds?"

Takada nodded solemnly: "Yes. How about it, you don't need to take any extra risks, just pay me. I know I don't have much weight, but at least I am a little bigger than Fukuzawa Yukichi, right?"

The new version of the Japanese yen was just replaced last year. The character on the 10,000 yen banknote was changed from Prince Shotoku to Fukuzawa Yukichi. Therefore, young people use Fukuzawa Yukichi to refer to 10,000 yen, while the elderly are still used to calling 10,000 yen. The Japanese yen is "Prince Shotoku".

Xiangchuan was silent for a few seconds, and then said: "Okay, if this is your last wish, I can satisfy it."

Takada stood up, put his hands on the table, and bowed respectfully, his forehead almost touching the table: "Please."
