Tokyo Barrister: Start the law firm bankruptcy

Chapter 422 Court Investigation
After discussing countermeasures at the hotel, Yuuki and Niwa split into two groups.Continue to pass the Accounting Inspection Office all the way to promote the audit of the production and research enterprises of Kyoto University.The other way is to go to enterprises everywhere and use various channels to investigate the actual situation of production and research enterprises.

When the investigators and reporters were busy, Kitahara and Miyagawa gathered in the hotel room almost as soon as they woke up in the morning, studying the case until late at night.To a certain extent, they pleaded not guilty for the first time in court, which can be regarded as a kind of surprise attack, and they took advantage of it.However, if there is another trial, they will face a well-prepared prosecutor.The battle they are facing will also be more intense than ever before.

The two young men were in the room, working on the case without sleep or food.Soon, the day of the second trial of the Morimoto corruption case came...

……

……

A few days later, at 10 am.

Kyoto, Sakyo Ward District Court, No. 301 Criminal Court.

More high-level people came to the auditorium in the court, and some professors from the Faculty of Engineering also attended the auditorium.Last time, the news that the defendant's lawyer suddenly defended his innocence caused a shock inside Kyoto University.Although the dignitaries in the school did not make any comments on the researcher's involvement in the corruption case, those with keen minds have already noticed the turbulent undercurrent after the calm.

Since Takeuchi of the university was re-elected as the vice president, the contradictions and divisions within the campus have intensified.Just need a fuse, an unprecedented personnel power struggle may be ignited.

On the stage, three judges have already taken their seats.This time, even the judge's seat was filled with various dossier materials.The involvement of researchers at Kyoto University in corruption is an eye-catching event.Right now, defense lawyers are still defending innocence, which has aroused considerable attention in the society.

When Judge Sakuma thought of this troublesome case, he couldn't help pinching his brows slightly.This lawyer named Beiyuan really always comes up with something surprising.Judge Sakuma looked at Morimoto who was already in court, looked around again, and after confirming that everything was ready, he immediately raised his gavel.

"Crack!"

"The Morimoto corruption case is now going to trial for the second time."

Only the voice of the chief referee said: "Last time, the court conducted an investigation on Morimoto's first corruption fact. The public prosecutor issued evidence opinions, and the defender issued cross-examination opinions. Now, the court investigation will continue, please public prosecutors Show evidence."

The second court session is officially underway.

Iwanaga received the order from the court, nodded slightly, and signaled the prosecutor Chigako next to him to present evidence.Yan Yong's eyes once again fell on the figure on the opposite defense seat.

Bei Yuan still sat calmly on the seat with a relaxed posture, and the tense and depressing criminal court didn't seem to have any impact on him.Even until now, the lawyer named Beiyuan didn't know what kind of evidence the prosecutor would present next, and the expression on his face was still calm.It seemed that there was nothing in this world that could stump him.

Yan Yong snorted lightly when he saw Bei Yuan's appearance.Last time, he did not expect that the Beiyuan lawyer dared to risk the world's disgrace, and still pleaded not guilty even though the defendant had already signed a plea.However, this time, both he and Qian Hezi came with full preparations.Like the situation of the first trial, it is absolutely impossible to happen!

Chikako next to her stood up.In her eyes, there was a firework of revenge that was ready to avenge her shame.The female prosecutor took a step forward, and after saluting to the trial seat, her loud voice sounded:

"Now, the public prosecutor will testify on the second fact of Morimoto's corruption crime."

"Cangqiao Electronic Instrument Co., Ltd. signed the "Project Research Cooperation Agreement" with the Faculty of Engineering of Kyoto University in the first three years, and reached a scientific research cooperation item on the joint development of ultra-high-sensitivity industrial pointer instrument panels. In order to encourage researchers to carry out research, The agreement stipulates the performance salary reward method for the researchers of the club."

"However, based on the principle of budgetary control, the agreement also stipulates that the total proportion of performance-based salary payment for researchers in the club shall not exceed 20% of the public research funds spent. That is to say, if the annual research fund expenditure is 1 million yen, then the The amount of performance salary for researchers cannot exceed 2000 million yen."

"Defendant Morimoto worked part-time as the research executive manager of Cangqiao Electronic Instrument Co., Ltd. and was responsible for the payment of wages and bonuses. Knowing that there was a limit on the total amount of performance wages mentioned above, he still reimbursed the club with various invoices or took other means , taking public funds and distributing them to the personal accounts of the researchers of the club, and at the same time, Morimoto also privately divided and embezzled about 12340231 yen of research funds in the process of distributing excessive research funds, and his behavior has constituted a crime of corruption!"

Qian Hezi's voice was aggressive. The female prosecutor seemed to want to recover all the face she lost last time. She could only hear her high-pitched and passionate voice, and continued:
"The evidence for the above facts is—"

"The first set of evidence. The first piece of evidence is the "Explanation on Morimoto's Employment" issued by Cangqiao Electronic Instrument Co., Ltd. The second piece of evidence is the employment agreement signed between Morimoto and Cangqiao Electronic Instrument Co., Ltd. The third piece of evidence , the salary distribution records of Morimoto and Cangqiao Electronic Instrument Co., Ltd. The above evidence proves that Morimoto is engaged in the above listed companies and is responsible for the salary payment. "

"The second set of evidence. The first piece of evidence is the "Project Research Cooperation Agreement" signed by the Faculty of Engineering of Kyoto University and Cangqiao Club. The second piece of evidence is the "About the Agreement of Cangqiao Electronic Instrument Co., Ltd." issued by the Administrative Affairs Office of Kyoto University. Notice of Approval of Industry-Research Joint Enterprise". The third piece of evidence is the "Management Measures for Salary Payment of Researchers" formulated by Cangqiao Electronic Instrument Co., Ltd. The fourth piece of evidence is also the "Detailed Rules for Calculation of Performance Wages" formulated by the company."

"The above evidence shows that Cangqiao Electronic Instrument Co., Ltd. is an industry-research joint venture. Whether it is the research agreement signed with Kyoto University or its internal company management methods, it is stipulated that performance wages shall not exceed 20% of public funds. "

"The third set of evidence. The first piece of evidence, researcher Chihiro Kodama, Masato Uchiyama, Miki Naito, Akiko Odauchi, Yuyui Hirashima, Masaichi Ishisaka, Hazuki Iwaki, Ichie Takamoto, Shuzo Tsukamoto, Shohei Isozaki, Shinya Nakayama, and Natsuki Kawada, the employment agreement between the twelve researchers and the club. The second piece of evidence is the bank account records of the above-mentioned researchers. The third piece of evidence is the reconciliation statistics of the researcher’s performance salary. The fourth item Evidence, researcher performance salary payment records. Fifth evidence, statistical description of researcher performance funds."

"The above evidence shows that twelve researchers of the club work for Cangqiao Electronic Instrument Co., Ltd., and the funds they receive directly or indirectly from the club have exceeded the 20% limit of public funds."

The female public prosecutor threw out a series of evidence in court in an instant, only to see that she went further and said:
"The fourth set of evidence. The first piece of evidence is the accounting vouchers and books of Cangqiao Electronic Instrument Co., Ltd. The second piece of evidence is the "Human Resources Agreement" signed by Shengu Human Resources Club and Cangqiao Electronic Instrument Co., Ltd. The third piece of evidence, The line chat records, voice, and mobile phone information exchanges between Morimoto and Yoshino Qingyan, the accountant of Canghashi Electronic Instrument Co., Ltd. The fourth piece of evidence is the bank statement between Canghashi Electronic Instrument Co., Ltd. and Kamiya Human Resources Co., Ltd."

"The above evidence proves that Morimoto used various methods to extract funds for performance-based wages. First, he directly reimbursed the club for obtaining funds through false invoices. Second, he signed a false contract with Shengu Human Resources in the name of the club. According to the human resources agreement, after the public funds were withdrawn to the Kamiya Human Resources Club, the funds were distributed to the personal accounts of the above-mentioned researchers. Third, Morimoto also falsely claimed to the club's finance manager Yoshino Qingyan that he needed to pay social insurance, and then again The withdrawn funds are deposited in his personal account and are prepared to be used to pay researchers' salaries."

"Through the above three methods, Morimoto embezzled a total of about 12340231 yen in research funds. After investigation, the facts are clear and the evidence is conclusive! Morimoto's behavior should be severely punished by the national law, so as to serve as an example to others!"

Chikako's voice echoed in the courtroom, sternly accusing Morimoto of his crimes.
