Tokyo Barrister: Start the law firm bankruptcy

Chapter 388 Resin
The guard's voice was echoed in the narrow corridor of the detention center, and many prisoners in the warehouse couldn't help sniggering when they saw this scene, showing gloating expressions.People are always a kind of wonderful animals, the strange thing is that they have a kind of strange behavior that inexplicably substitutes themselves into big people.

Originally, Morimoto should have sympathized with the other prisoners locked in the warehouse. However, at this moment, they somehow found a sense of superiority, and they also stood by the guards, laughing at the man who wanted to hire a lawyer. .

Morimoto stood where he was, his mind was blank.A full eight-year sentence, which means that when he walks out of prison, he will be in his forties. The golden age of my scientific research career in my 30s, and the most creative period in my life, were all buried behind bars.

As for his wife Xianghui, if she is willing to wait for herself, then she will also spend the best years of her life waiting for a man trapped behind bars.

At this moment, the only one who can help me is a lawyer.But if you want to hire a lawyer in the detention center, the only way is to tell the guard in front of you.However, the guard's laughter had already told him the answer to his request for help.

A brutal answer.

That is, the right of the defendant to entrust a defense lawyer in the Criminal Procedure Law is actually useless.

Hopeless.

If there is no way to hire a lawyer, what awaits me is eight years of behind bars.I won't be able to read any books, and I won't be able to spend happy weekends with my family.The life that was built with great difficulty in Kyoto will all come to naught.

It’s over.

It's all over.

Morimoto felt a little dizzy in front of his eyes, as if countless silver needles were piercing his heart. He thought of Xianghui and the warm little home in Kyoto.The beating heart seemed to be bleeding at this moment.

The guard admired Morimoto's almost desperate expression, and the smile on his face was even brighter. It seemed that the more miserable others were, the happier he would be.However, just when the guard was about to laugh again, a man in uniform suddenly appeared beside him, raised his foot, and kicked him unceremoniously.

The hard leather shoes stomped fiercely, causing the guard to fall to the ground in an instant.

"I asked you what you look like. Tell me! What are you looking like!" the man in uniform shouted directly.

The guard hit the ground, didn't understand what was going on, and was about to get furious, but when he saw the dark black and gray uniform of the man in front of him, his expression trembled suddenly, showing a frightened expression, his whole body immediately flinched, completely The arrogance just now was gone.

Standing before him was the Inspector.

The so-called inspectors are the police who supervise the police.

Whether the guard was afraid of the Inspector, or because the rogue was only ever afraid of bigger rogues, is not known.

The inspector also glanced indifferently, and said without emotion, "When can we shout in the corridor of the detention center? Or laugh out loud?"

Then, the inspector walked up to the guard who fell to the ground, grabbed his collar, and said in a low voice, "I hope you will save me a little trouble. Do you know that lawyers are getting more and more troublesome now?" , It’s getting harder and harder to deal with. Restrain me a bit! The person in your No. [-] warehouse is named Morimoto, and his family hired a lawyer for him. This lawyer’s status is a bit special. Bian is said to be an order issued by Minister Nishino, and he needs to focus on Morimoto's defense lawyer, so you can save me a little trouble!"

"Yes... yes..." the guard said in a trembling voice.

The guard was a little dazed, and didn't understand why the situation suddenly changed like this, but at this moment, he could only obey obediently.

The inspector let out a cold snort, and suddenly let go, causing the guard in front of him to hit the ground again.

There was a low "bang" sound.

The guard covered his head with a pained expression on his face.

The two guards behind the inspector looked at each other, walked quickly to No. 3 warehouse, and then opened the warehouse door. One of them looked at the dumbfounded man in front of the warehouse door and said, "Naoya Morimoto. Your wife Ishimura Xianghui hired a lawyer for you, and now we will escort you to the interview room."

"Huh?" Suddenly hearing his wife's name, Morimoto suddenly raised his head, opening his mouth slightly...

……

……

……

In the corridor of the detention center, Morimoto has never traveled such a long road in his life so far.Obviously, the distance from No. [-] warehouse to the meeting room is not very far away.However, time seems to slow down ten times with every passing minute.

Morimoto was very nervous.On the one hand, he expected to see a lawyer, but on the other hand, he was afraid of seeing a lawyer. After that, the lawyer told himself again that this case was hopeless.Thinking of this possibility, Morimoto's heart couldn't help beating "thumping".

With a "click", the guard who was walking in front opened a white iron door, and then waved his hand to signal to go in.

Morimoto swallowed slightly, stood in front of the door for a few seconds, took a deep breath, and decided to go in.As soon as he entered the meeting room, he saw a figure behind thick transparent glass.He couldn't see the specific appearance clearly, he could only vaguely see two lawyers, a man and a woman.

Morimoto narrowed his eyes and carefully sat in front of the glass.

A voice came through the hole in the middle, "Hello. I am Yoshikazu Kitahara, and this is Saeko Miyagawa next to me. We are the defense lawyers entrusted by your wife. Of course, do you want to entrust us to be your own lawyers?" Defense attorneys, the decision is ultimately yours."

Morimoto opened his mouth, but couldn't say anything.In the past two months, he has imagined countless times in his mind how to appeal his grievances when he meets a lawyer.But when I actually saw the lawyer, I was full of words, and I didn't know where to start.

"Xianghui...Xianghui, how is she?" Morimoto clenched his hands tightly and said with a trembling voice.

"She misses you very much." The voice of the male lawyer came
After a pause for a few seconds, the male voice said again, "Dr. Morimoto, put on your glasses first."

"Eye...glasses?" Morimoto was surprised when he heard this sentence, "What glasses? My glasses were confiscated by the detention center, and I don't have any more."

"It's on the table in front of me." The male lawyer said, "I asked the guard to bring in the glasses. I asked Dr. Ishimura to make them. Because the detention center usually takes away the glasses of detainees. She went and The store you often go to together has a pair of special glasses that are all resin without any metal parts."

Morimoto bowed his head abruptly when he heard this.Sure enough, on the table in front of him was a pair of resin-amber glasses lying quietly there.A distinct "L" is etched into the edge of the frame.My wife and I often go to that optical shop, called Yanagawa Optical Shop, just turn left two roads downstairs from our house and we are there.

That optical shop is not a branded optical shop, but a small local shop with a history of 90 years.The frame matched by this store is very light and very good.Both myself and my wife got glasses there together, and the shop owner sent them special congratulations when they got married.

Morimoto's nose was sore, and memories of his wife Xianghui kept coming to his mind.

With trembling hands he picked up the glasses and put them on.

At this moment, the world suddenly became clearer. Those vague events in the past seemed to be magnified at this moment, and even the lines on it could be clearly seen.Morimoto, who had not been able to see clearly in the detention center for half a year, was finally able to truly perceive the world visually.

He raised his head slowly, and what came into view was a rather handsome man.So young, so... so good... Perhaps thinking of his years of studying hard in the cold window of the campus, Morimoto sobbed, but after barely controlling his emotions, Morimoto's nervous system surrendered, at first First a drop of tears flowed out, and then uncontrollable tears flowed down.

"Why do you know that I need glasses..." Morimoto said with tears, "The previous lawyers didn't notice this problem. I didn't know that resin glasses could be brought in."

The researcher gently touched the pair of resin glasses on his body with both hands, as if he wanted to feel the traces of his wife on them.

"Beiyuan...Lawyer Beiyuan...thank you for your glasses..." Morimoto couldn't stop crying loudly.This man in his thirties didn't care about anything else, he just wanted to vent all his emotions at this moment.Morimoto's crying lasted for about half an hour.The 30-year-old researcher poured out all the grievances he had suffered since entering the detention center in the form of tears.

After almost 50 minutes, Morimoto's mood gradually returned to normal.

Beiyuan looked at Morimoto, smiled, and sat up slightly, "Okay. Dr. Morimoto, please tell us what happened to you..."
