Tokyo Barrister: Start the law firm bankruptcy

Chapter 358 The Fourth Court Session

Monday, 9:55 a.m.

Kyoto, Sakyo Ward District Court.

This ancient book counting case has also come to the final stage. Courtroom 607 was full of observers, including various intellectual property experts, legal professionals, outstanding alumni of Kyoto University, and reporters from well-known TV stations.Most of the people who are still present at the scene at this moment obtained this precious auditorium ticket through their relationship.

The remaining trial courts on the sixth floor of the court building are all open to ordinary citizens, who can indirectly observe the trial by watching the broadcast.Countless eyes in Dongyang are focused on this lawsuit related to the reputation of the highest academic institution in China.

At the stairway, Fujimura adjusted his clothes again by taking advantage of the reflection of the mobile phone screen.Today he is wearing a brown suit, black round glasses, and his hair has been carefully done.The whole person looks like a full-fledged professor.

This lawsuit is coming to an end.

Looking back on the lawsuit since it happened, I seem to be living in a nightmare.

Fujimura took a slight breath, carried the briefcase, and walked with his head held high. He came to Court No. 607 and gently pushed the door open.

Utsunomiya and Ikegami were already sitting in the dock.On the other side of the plaintiff's seat was the female lawyer and the most annoying lawyer Beiyuan.In addition to the two plaintiff lawyers, Shimogawa was also sitting in the plaintiff's seat, wearing a black suit and a cheap tie, leaning on the seat with a rather dull expression.

Fujimura showed a meaningful smile, walked to the dock, opened the high-back chair in front of him, and glanced at the people opposite him from the corner of his eye.

Today's self is a complete winner.

And the Xiachuan on the opposite side, and the fraudulent lawyer, will admit in court that they lost.What could be more satisfying than enjoying the opponent's failure.

Many audience members in the court were surprised to see the dean of the humanities research department appearing in court in person, and they couldn't help discussing in low voices.

"Dean, I don't suggest you to appear in court today." Utsunomiya looked at the reaction in the court, turned his body sideways, and said in a low voice, "It is not a certainty that the plaintiff will withdraw the lawsuit. If, in the end, it is just a trap, then It’s just too rewarding.”

Fujimura tilted his head and replied in a low voice, "Don't worry, big professor. I have even read Shimokawa's application for withdrawing the lawsuit. The students in his teaching and research section have already told me that it was Shimokawa who took the initiative to call them to meet and personally negotiated with him. They talked face-to-face and told them that they decided to withdraw the lawsuit. And that Beiyuan will submit the application for withdrawal after the final statement."

Yes, that annoying Kitahara lawyer who is as annoying as a mosquito.

The lawyer who dared to contradict himself at the seminar and make himself look ugly will submit a withdrawal application to the court in front of him, completely admitting his failure.

Thinking of this, the smile on Fujimura's face became brighter.

With a beep, the court indicator turned from red to green.The clerk in the middle of the court immediately got up and said to the audience in the court: "Judges are seated, please stand up."

I don't know if it's because this is the last trial of this case, but the spectators in the auditorium felt a more tense atmosphere than the first trial, and stood up one after another.

Soon, three figures in black robes appeared at the secret door.Judge Takanashi walked up to the referee's seat with the file in his arms, and motioned to the clerk.Immediately, the clerk said again, "Please sit down." The crowd in the courtroom immediately sat down respectfully.

Judge Takanashi did not pick up the gavel, but looked at the dock first, "Defendant's attorney. Last time, the court ordered you to submit documentary evidence proving that the defendant independently completed the proofreading of the works. Are you ready?"

Utsunomiya picked up a stack of A4 papers and presented them to the jury, "The collegial panel. What is being submitted now is the regular progress report of the scientific research project "Parade in the East and Sending Tang Ji". This report was written during the period when Fujimura presided over the scientific research project. Report sent to the Academic Promotion Committee."

Judge Takanashi took the A4 papers, flipped through them, his eyebrows were slightly frowned, and then passed them on to other judges.

"Is there no direct evidence?" asked a magistrate on the side, "These papers are just reports. We need to see more first-hand records, such as borrowing records from the collection, travel records to and from various archives , the historical version of the electronic proofreading on the computer, etc. "

"I'm really sorry, the collegial panel. Due to the short time, the defendant is still looking for other materials." Utsunomiya replied.

"Attorney for the plaintiff, come over and take a look. If you have any comments for cross-examination, just add it directly." Judge Takanashi looked up at the plaintiff's seat and said.

Listening to these conversations, Fujimura didn't care, and the expression on his face became even more arrogant.

Yes, even if I can't produce any evidence to prove that I completed the calibration independently, the winner of this lawsuit is still me!
Bei Yuan sat on his seat and looked at his mobile phone.

He is waiting.

Wait for someone.

Wait for a hacker named Sakagami.

Waiting for her to break through the firewall of the Kobe University archives.

Beiyuan tapped his fingers on the desktop lightly, waiting for the text message that may or may not come in today's trial.

"Plaintiff's attorney?" Judge Takanashi raised his head again, and said with some doubts, "Do you have any cross-examination opinions to express, just come here and say it."

The voice fell.

The mobile phone on the plaintiff's table vibrated suddenly, and a cartoon student's head flickered on the screen.The sudden "hum" sound was particularly harsh at this moment, announcing that something was about to come out.

It's neither too early nor too late, just in time.

Bei Yuan immediately stood up, took the mobile phone, and walked towards the clerk's desk in the middle, "The chief referee. We have no cross-examination opinions to be published here, but we need to submit a document for the court's reference. Please print it out for the clerk."

The clerk took Bei Yuan's cell phone and connected it to the printer on the desktop.Soon, under the sound of "click, click", a piece of A4 paper was printed out.

"What information does the plaintiff's attorney want to submit?" Judge Takanashi asked curiously, looking at the mysterious look of the young lawyer.

Beiyuan immediately presented the A4 paper to the court, and deliberately said in a voice that everyone present could hear: "Chief referee. The proofreading copy of the defendant Fujimura's "A Tour of Eastern Lands and Repatriation to the Tang Dynasty" is Qingzhengyuan." And it just so happens that only the archives of Kobe University in the Kansai area have the Kiyomasa-en copy of the story of sending Tang Tang. After the plaintiff's inquiry, the borrowing record of the defendant Fujimura Kayo in the archives is—"

"Two hours."

Beiyuan's voice wafted over the courtroom.

The sound is not very loud, but it is very clear.

It was like a balloon bursting, like the emperor's new clothes were pointed out by a child on the street.

Everyone present was stunned for a moment.After they understood what the plaintiff's lawyer said about the two hours, they immediately exploded.Because the court hadn't officially opened yet, the crowd in the auditorium couldn't help talking.After checking a travel book with more than [-] words, it turned out that the borrowing time for the original copy was only a short two hours, and it was only two hours!Is it possible that this point... is it a genius? !

Fujimura opened his mouth.He never expected that Beiyuan would do something like this at the last moment.In an instant, he stood up uncontrollably, wanting to grab the borrowing record.However, it was too late.He watched the chief referee on the stage with his own eyes, picked up the borrowing record, and read it.

why?
why? !

Why, this Beiyuan, who obviously wants to withdraw the lawsuit, still wants to disgust himself like this? !

Feeling the subtle changes in the atmosphere in the courtroom, Fujimura blushed, and the anger in his heart rushed to the peak.You are going to withdraw the lawsuit, so why are you pretending? !Why do you still have to do this!

Fujimura could no longer understand the actions of this lawyer named Kitahara.He is simply like a demon, a demon in the world who is desperate and rampant, and wants to die with you!
Utsunomiya couldn't help being surprised when he looked at the borrowing record in Kitahara's hand.He didn't know where this Beiyuan could get this borrowing record.He immediately said, "Collegiate panel. I don't know where the plaintiff got the borrowing records. The borrowing records of private users of Kobe University will not be provided for outsiders to check. This so-called record is full of doubts, and it is very likely to be forged! The court declared..."

Before the word "Ming Cha" was uttered, Judge Takanashi's expression was obviously very displeased, and she directly interrupted the words of her mentor, Yuhi, "What's going on! The defendant! There is also the defendant's attorney! Didn't the court already order Before the final statement, you submitted documents according to the plaintiff's documentary evidence retrieval order. Why are you hiding something from the court!"

"Please give the court some more time. The defendant's representative will go to the Kobe University archives to verify it in person." Utsunomiya frowned and immediately remedied it.

"The court has given you a chance. You should know the legal consequences of failing to submit documentary evidence to the collegial panel on time." Judge Takanashi said coldly.The next second, without waiting for Utsunomiya to speak again, she directly raised the gavel.

"Click" sound.

The sound of the gavel.

"The plaintiff Shimokawa Yoshihiko v. the defendant Fujimura Kayo, Kyoto University, Kyoto University Press, the trial is now open!"
