Tokyo Barrister: Start the law firm bankruptcy

Chapter 386 Detention Center
Day two, 4:[-] p.m.

Warehouse No. 3, Kyoto Detention Center.

The damp walls exuded an uncomfortable musty smell, the exhaust fan blades at the top of the warehouse stopped rotating, and some mosquitoes flew in through the gaps.In the small room, almost 20 people were crowded, and there was floating dust in the air. From time to time, some people would cough hard because of throat discomfort.

At the iron gate at the entrance of the warehouse, a frail-looking man in his thirties was holding the cold door pole with both hands.He didn't wear glasses, but it could be seen that he was a nearsighted person. He squinted his eyes, even though they were already narrowed into a line, he was still staring at the corridor outside, as if he was waiting for someone.

When entering the detention center in Kyoto, any glasses with metal parts, even screws, will be taken away.As for refitting the detainees with a pair of resin glasses, most of the guards in the detention center are not so carefree.Because the law is not detailed enough to guarantee the right of myopic people to wear glasses in prisons, who would make trouble for themselves for no reason?

The man stood in front of the barn door squinting his eyes all the time, which caused many people in the barn to laugh scornfully.

"That person is acting stupid again."

"I heard that he is still a doctor, why are you so stupid?"

"It seemed that he pleaded guilty before. The prosecutor came and took him to an adjoining room, and signed some kind of agreement. Anyway, it was the kind that could reduce the sentence. Now he has repented."

"It deserves it, everyone who has come in, there will be no clean ones."

"It is estimated that reading is stupid."

"So, what's the use of reading less books and reading so many books, why don't you squat here like us."

Standing in front of the barn door, Morimoto still squinted his eyes, desperately trying to see when the guards in the detention center would come over.He has been without glasses for almost half a year, and he has not seen what the world looks like.I never imagined that when I stepped into a university and lived as a researcher, I would encounter a prison sentence.

For half a year, I could only sleep on the uncomfortable hard bed in the barn.

It's been a long, long time since I saw my wife Xianghui.

Until now, Morimoto even has a feeling that all this is unreal.As long as I wake up from sleep, I can lie in that small house in Kyoto again, eat my wife Xianghui's poorly cooked pork chops that are always fried too old, sit on the sofa with my wife, and look at myself. Not a fan of romantic dramas.

Standing for a long time made the body of this frail researcher unstoppably tired, and the nerves and blood vessels in the body seemed to be beating, pulling the soul in the body.

Morimoto gasped for a few breaths with a rather pale complexion, and couldn't help squatting down, pressing his hands on his chest.

I... how did I get to this point...

Just last year, I had just obtained my Ph.D., and unexpectedly, I received a post as a researcher in the research group of the famous professor Ogawara of Kyoto University.You know, in the field of engineering, it is a supreme honor for Yu Dongyang to join Ogawara's research group.Ogawara's name is almost synonymous with Toyo Engineering.Yes, I admire Professor Ogawara very much.

But...but, everything now... how did it happen?
The pale and dazzling light in the corridor shone into the researcher's pupils, telling him mercilessly that all this was not a dream, but a cruel reality.

Morimoto lowered his head, holding on to the railing, and did not let go, as if he had fallen into memory again.

Everything started when I started to help Ogawara manage off-campus enterprises.Since then, I have less and less time for my own research, and the familiar laboratory has become more and more unfamiliar.I am always on the road between different companies.Exactly... what went wrong?

Is something wrong?
Or is something wrong with Professor Ogawara?
"Hello!" A rough voice sounded from behind Morimoto, interrupting the researcher's thinking.The savage voice continued: "I said can you, don't stand in front of this barn door all day. It is easy to be considered by the guards as a violation of barn discipline. You will hurt everyone!!"

Hearing the reprimand from this voice, Morimoto was startled, turned around, and quickly explained, "No. I just want to wait for the guard to come over and tell him that I want to hire another lawyer. I was wronged, I really was wronged. I really didn't do it."

A muscular man in prison uniform showed an impatient expression, stepped forward, grabbed Morimoto's clothes, threw him to the ground, and dragged him to the interior of the warehouse, "A lawyer? Are you Are you kidding?! You hired so many lawyers before, what's the use?!"

Morimoto was grabbed suddenly, seeing the barn door getting farther and farther away from him, his heart jumped suddenly, his body shook uncontrollably, trying to break free, "Let me go! I didn't hire the previous lawyer! I want to Please, please, please! Let me go to the warehouse gate and wait for the guards to come and talk, let me go! Let me go!"

"It's really annoying!" The muscular man grabbed Morimoto's hair, slammed his head on the ground, and said loudly: "Are you really stupid when you read books! Hire a lawyer? Hiring a lawyer is useful If so, do the ten or so people in our warehouse still need to stay here! I told you a long time ago that it is best to sign the plea agreement honestly. How many people want to sign, but they can’t sign it! You give me Be quiet!"

The cold ground of the warehouse hit Morimoto's face.

However, the moment he touched the somewhat dirty ground, Morimoto's inner homesickness couldn't stop surging upwards.He remembered the tatami mats in that small house in Kyoto.I remembered that when I came home from the laboratory every day, I could fall directly on the soft and comfortable tatami.

Morimoto's body struggled even harder in an instant, and shouted loudly: "A lawyer, I want a lawyer! Don't stop me! It is my legal right to hire a lawyer! I know this! I want to see the guard! I want to Tell him I want a lawyer! It's my legal right!"

"Be honest with me!" The strong man seemed not to have expected that the frail man in front of him was so strong, so he couldn't help pressing him even tighter.Listening to Morimoto's words, the man just showed a more exaggerated mocking expression:

"Help a lawyer?! Let me tell you, lawyers are cheating money. The previous few have cheated you, and now you hire another one to cheat you. All of us are doing it for your own good and saving you some money. ...Let me tell you, the most useless thing is a lawyer. All of us are really doing it for you."

The expression on the man's face gradually turned into a ferocious smile, and he pressed Morimoto harder and harder, "For your own good, do you understand?"

Morimoto's neck became more and more red because of being strangled, and the loud cry that he could make just now could only become an extremely small hoarse voice:
"I... I... am... innocent... I... I want to ask... a lawyer..."
