Chapter 121 Epilogue
Following this, the verdict of the first instance of the case of Terai v. Kawamoto Expressway was released.Kawamoto Expressway issued a statement to accept the judgment and suspend the lawsuit, and will start settlement negotiations on the next group lawsuit.Although the subsequent group lawsuits came fiercely, because most of the registrants participating in the group lawsuits did not have sufficient factual materials, Sakai Law Firm and Nishimura Law Firm, which undertook the group lawsuits, were also willing to start settlement negotiations with Kawamoto Expressway.

The tense atmosphere suddenly eased.

Gradually, although the turmoil about the expressway is still there, it has gradually withdrawn from the attention of public opinion.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 the listed company and gave a standardized narrative of praise.

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

However, only those who personally participated in the trial can truly appreciate the horror of the lawyer named Yoshiichi Kitahara.Out of sight, the name Kitahara Yoshikazu has attracted the attention of some veterans in the legal profession.

……

……

……

After a few days.

In the morning, Eto Law Firm in Shinjuku District.

Bei Yuan sat in front of the computer, his eyes were fixed on the screen, and his expression seemed a little dignified.This somewhat nervous expression had never appeared even before the anxious court trial.

In an instant, the screen refreshed.

The mobile phone on the desktop also vibrated, but saw a bank text message sent over.

“三菱银行:您的账户6268978435789XX65682于10点27分收到汇款YEN15,800,000。详情请致电0120-309-333进行查询。”

Nearly 1600 million in legal fees arrived in the account. The moment he saw the number flashing in his bank account, Beiyuan 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 tense."

Although there is still a certain distance from the debt of [-] million yen... um... let's forget about it... If you have wine today, you are drunk... Life must be full of joy...

Bei Yuan sipped the black tea on the table and whistled leisurely.

At the door, there was a sound of pushing the door, followed by Miyagawa's voice, "Beiyuan! 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 about to go on a long trip, and it was Terai and his wife who came.

Terai was dragging his suitcase, wearing a leather jacket, and with a smile on his face, he shouted loudly as soon as he entered the law firm: "Lawyer Beiyuan! I'm here to say goodbye!"

Bei Yuan stood up from his seat and also smiled, "Mr. Terai, you are so dusty, where are you going?"

Terai put his hand on the handle of the suitcase and said with a smile: "Haha. The company specially sponsored the cost this time. I decided to choose to go to Western Ocean to further study automotive engineering technology. After I finish my studies, I will return to Eastern Ocean to continue my engineering position. You young people work so hard, I have to take action, and I can’t fall behind.”

"Travel across the ocean, does your wife agree?" Beiyuan walked to the side of Sijing, showing a wicked smile, and asked in a low voice.

Terai was dumbfounded when he heard it, and then he choked out a few words: "She...she complained at first. However, when she thinks of living in the West for a while, she can take some beautiful photos to show off in front of her girlfriends. It's relieved. Now she is more active than me in packing her luggage."

In the law firm, Najinjiang pulled Miyagawa to a far corner, and told him what to do, as if he was teaching some emotional "36 strategies". Although his voice was much lowered, Najinjiang's sharp voice could still be heard.

"You can't be too nice to a man."

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

"Girls can't spoil themselves."

"Understood? Little girl."

Miyagawa was next to him, his face turned red and white, he was at a loss, he didn't know where to put his hands, his mouth opened slightly from time to time, as if he heard some shocking views, and then he quickly put his index finger next to his mouth, "Shhh" For a moment, let Najinjiang not be too loud.

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

Beiyuan coughed forcefully, but just smiled and didn't answer.

"Okay, I won't bother you anymore, lawyer Beiyuan. Anyway, thank you very much for this lawsuit." Terai said with a smile, "But this time I left for the West, and it will take several years to come back. I have an important thing , I want to give you, lawyer Beiyuan, as a souvenir."

Terai fumbled for a box from his body, and handed it to Kitahara.

The box was opened, but a beige screw was found inside the box.Ordinary screws are made of stainless steel, but the screws in this small box seem to be shaped from some kind of gelatin, which is particularly unique.

"This is—?" Beiyuan asked in surprise when he saw this special screw.

"This is a resin screw. It is a masterpiece of a junior high school classmate of mine a long time ago. It can be said that this is the rarest craft of screw products. I think as an engineer, I can only present these trivial handicrafts. Those parts of the car, I have searched and searched, but there is no one that is beautiful and light. After much deliberation, only the resin screws of my old classmate can be obtained.”

"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." Beiyuan picked up the screws in the box, put them in his palm, and began to play with them. He asked, "Then how is your middle school classmate doing now?"

"It's a matter of fact, and he's gone now, but, however, he has a son named Naoki, who works in a bank now, and I heard it's still a big bank."

Terai sighed slightly, and then waved to Najinjiang in the law firm, "Old lady, it's time to go. Don't take the little girl with you!"

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

Then, the Terai couple said goodbye with some reluctance after exchanging pleasantries at the gate of the law firm.

Downstairs in the law firm, Terai took a taxi, took a suitcase, and various large and small bags, put them in the back seat, opened the door, and sat in 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 handle of the car door and glanced back at the law firm.I really hope that lawyer Kitahara can be with that girl named Miyagawa, Terai thought.

That girl named Miyagawa, although she looks a little reserved, is still very sunny inside.

However, that Beiyuan lawyer... During the process of meeting and contacting Beiyuan, Terai gradually realized something terrible about this young man:
This young man named Beiyuan didn't have even the slightest bit of beautiful imagination about this world.The young man's heart seemed to be a bottomless abyss black hole, where there was only cold and ruthless calculation of interests, and there was no light to be seen there.
