Tokyo Barrister: Start the law firm bankruptcy

Chapter 285 Trust
The words of the male lawyer echoed in the conference room.Everyone present understood the seriousness of the accusation.If the dean of the Graduate School of Humanities is found to have plagiarized other people's works, it will be a great damage to the reputation of Kyoto University.

Utsunomiya calmed himself down.Yes, from the perspective of academic norms, the identification of plagiarism is indeed stricter.However, the facts themselves are not the point.On both sides of this debate is Shimogawa, a non-staff teacher who has not even received tenure.On the other side is the high-ranking dean of the humanities research department.

Any normal management will choose to protect the latter.

As long as you hold on, victory is on your side.

When Fujimura heard Bei Yuan's words, his complexion turned a little pale at first, and after realizing that the other party had drawn a knife, his eyes showed a little fierceness, and he stood up from his seat: "Why do you say that I copied it?" Xia Chuan! My proofreading work was published first. It should be said that Xia Chuan copied me! Those so-called manuscripts are not plagiarized from me!"

"Since you have filed a complaint against me, I will also file a complaint against Xiachuan!!" The dean waved his arms excitedly.

When Shimokawa heard Fujimura's words, he was stunned for a moment, and he couldn't believe that these words came from a dignified dean.The teacher who had been sitting in the study all this time seemed unable to imagine that the plagiarist in front of him was so shameless that he wanted to beat him up.

For a moment, Shimogawa couldn't help standing up, "You asked me for a typed draft at the beginning. You declared the project to the Association for the Advancement of Science. How could you not admit it?!"

"I have already been doing the proofreading of "A Tour of Eastern Lands and Repatriation to the Tang Dynasty". Two years ago, I saw that your professional direction was consistent with this project, so I took the initiative to invite you to participate in the proofreading of the book. Unexpectedly, Xiachuan Since you are an ungrateful white-eyed wolf! You actually said that I copied you!" Fujimura raised his voice a little.

"How can you be so full of lies!" Xia Chuan was so angry that his face turned red.

"Evidence! Evidence! I want evidence!" Fujimura stared at Shimokawa, "In fact, in terms of the project approval time of the Society for the Advancement of Academic Studies, the proofreading of "Parade in the Eastern Land and Expedition to the Tang Dynasty" started three years ago. With your What do you mean, I am copying you!"

"Okay. Please don't make any noise. Teacher Shimokawa and Dean Fujimura, please sit down." Utsunomiya reached out and knocked on the table a few times to signal for silence.

At this moment, the way the two teachers insulted Sven and accused each other of insulting each other was quite indecent.That's why the university doesn't want outsiders in the meeting.

Utsunomiya watched the fierce quarrel, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.Fujimura still implemented the core idea of ​​his instructions.As long as the scene seems more noisy, it means that the incident, at least on the surface, will be more complicated.

And once things become complicated, the university will not dare to make a decision lightly.

Judging from the results, it will inevitably benefit Fujimura.

Shimokawa listened to Utsunomiya's words, and sat back in a daze, clenched his hands tightly. He still had something big in his heart, but he didn't say it.

Looking at this scene, Beiyuan said coldly, "Mr. Xiachuan, I hope you can see the appearance of the opposite party clearly. The other party not only plagiarized your work openly, but also accused you of plagiarizing him. Our opponent has no bottom line. When the opponent has no bottom line, our bottom line should also be removed.”

"I believe the university will give me justice." Shimokawa whispered, "It is impossible for Kyoto University to condone people like Fujimura. The university... the university will definitely make a fair result."

"Fairness is not given to you by anyone. It is up to you to fight for it." Bei Yuan said lightly.

Bei Yuan didn't say anything more.Because he knew that in this confrontation with Kyoto University, if the parties did not have the mentality of breaking the boat, it would be impossible to proceed.There are some things that can only be understood by yourself when you hit your head and bruise yourself.

Shimokawa sat in his seat, looking up at the school dignitaries on the long table.He believes that these people will give him justice today.He submitted a lot of materials to the school.Including the voucher of his "Parade in the East and Repatriation to Tang Dynasty" at the auction in Kyushu Island, and the records of his travels to and from archives throughout Dongyang Island.These detailed materials are believed to prove irrefutably that he was the first person to check and proofread "A Journey to the Tang Dynasty on a Tour in the Eastern Land".

Utsunomiya looked at the two parties in the dispute, coughed, and then announced: "From the materials submitted by all parties, it is clear that the dispute between Mr. Shimokawa and Dean Fujimura is very complicated. Moreover, it is also a technical difficulty to determine whether plagiarism is established. Very high question."

"In view of the complexity of such debates, as the moderator of this disciplinary hearing suggested, the university can set up a special committee or group to determine whether there is plagiarism in "Parade in the Eastern Land".

A...a dedicated committee?Shimokawa frowned when he heard this statement.He repeatedly read the university's internal rules before filing a disciplinary complaint.There is no mention of such a committee in the rules.

Shimokawa couldn't help but asked, "Excuse me, Professor Utsunomiya. How long will it take to hand over the matter to such a special committee?"

Utsunomiya replied, "After all, this matter is very complicated. Therefore, we need to be patient. Such a special committee will definitely handle it carefully to ensure that the final result must be fair and just, and can clearly restore the truth of the facts."

"Can the results come out before June?" Shimokawa asked further.June is about Xiachuan's own re-employment review meeting.If before that, he could not rectify the proofreading results of "A Tour of Eastern Lands and Repatriation to the Tang Dynasty", then he would miss the chance to be re-appointed as an associate professor by Peking University.

"All I can guarantee is that the committee will definitely investigate the relevant incident as quickly as possible." Utsunomiya leaned forward and assumed a sincere and solemn posture.

However, Utsunomiya knew very well in his heart that such a special committee was just a ploy to delay time.

As long as Xiachuan is expelled from the university after Xiachuan's re-employment review meeting, the matter can be confirmed.

At that time, Xiachuan, as a resigned faculty member, will not be able to pose a threat no matter how noisy he is.Because at that time, all the actions of Shimogawa could be interpreted as the dissatisfaction of the resigned employees with the university.This plagiarism incident will turn into a personal grievance.

"The university attaches great importance to this matter, and we will definitely give a result." Utsunomiya looked at the associate professor in front of him and smiled, "Please trust the university."
