Tokyo Barrister: Start the law firm bankruptcy

Chapter 600 Where to go?

Kitahara dragged his tired steps out of Kyoto University.

It was almost midnight, and the riots at the university had not completely calmed down due to the protest against Takeuchi's activities. However, the young man, who was extremely exhausted physically and mentally, could not care about this anymore.

The temporarily rented white Toyota was parked at the west gate of the university campus. The car body of this Toyota has many scratches and the windows are cracked. These marks all tell the thrilling story of what this white Toyota experienced during the day.

There was a "pop" sound.

Beihara opened the car door and sat on the driver's seat.

The day I experienced in Kyoto today was very long, very long. It's like a month has passed.

From the early hours of the morning, I was trying to track down the industrial research company, and I happened to meet Niwa who was seriously injured in the elevator shaft. The next step is to go find Takeuchi. What followed was a confrontation with Eto in Nijo Castle. Investigator Yuki was shot in the abdomen by a shotgun, and then there was a chase. In the underground parking lot of the shopping mall, Eto's mysterious disappearance led to a major train derailment.

Looking back on this day, everything I experienced was like a dream.

However, the stinging sensation caused by the glass particles still remaining on the seat reminded Beihara that this was not a dream.

Kitahara wanted to rest.

Even if you have a spirit as strong as steel, you can't stand the fatigue of your body.

want to rest.

I really want to lie down comfortably.

However, the glass shards left behind in Toyota during the day did not allow Kitahara to fulfill his wish.

So be it.

The young lawyer was so tired that he didn't even want to start the car.

Just at this time--

Suddenly there were two knocks outside the car window.

Beiyuan was startled and turned his head sharply to look.

A familiar face came into view. The two curved eyebrows exuded the nobility of a young lady, but paired with the watery eyes, they looked cute and lovable. This face alone, without speaking, already makes people feel embraced by a gentle country. This face was all too familiar to Beihara. A law firm on the verge of bankruptcy was the starting point for the two to meet again.

The person standing outside the car is Miyagawa.

Miyagawa's eyes were already red. She was very anxious today. Especially when she found out that she could not contact Kitahara, she immediately asked Mikiko and learned that Kitahara might go to Takeuchi. She was worried that something would happen to Kitahara because of the unrest in the university.

Miyagawa called Beihara countless times today.

Kitahara didn't know.

Because the mobile phone fell off the road and was damaged during the daytime chase.

Miyagawa has been looking for Beihara, constantly looking.

Always find this moment.

In terms of probability, based on the number of roads in Kyoto, the probability that Miyagawa can find Kitahara is infinitely close to zero.

However, when the probability is infinitely close to zero, multiplied by the feelings that can no longer be suppressed in the heart, the universe also allows the probability of their encounter to finally converge to the moment when a miracle can happen.

"Kita...Kitahara." Miyagawa was speechless for a moment, and just said his name with a trembling voice.

Kitahara saw Miyagawa. He didn't know why, but he had a strange feeling. It was obviously only a day since I last saw Miyagawa, but it felt like I hadn’t seen Miyagawa for a long, long time.

It seemed that the moment he saw Miyagawa, the familiar life returned.

Yes, because of meeting Miyagawa. Unknowingly, Miyagawa has integrated into the life of this young male lawyer.

The next second, Beiyuan felt warm arms hugging him. He felt the body temperature of the girl in front of him and heard the girl's breathing in his ears. Her skin is very slippery, and once you touch it, you will have the urge to cling tightly to her and intertwine with her.

Beiyuan opened his mouth and wanted to speak.

I found that he couldn't say anything.

Suddenly, Kitahara felt lucky.

A kind of luck to meet the girl named Miyagawa in front of me.

I remembered that I was lying in the car just now.

Maybe, I didn't want to lie down.

But I want to be held.

And Miyagawa in front of him was holding himself like this.

Under the night, the campus of Kyoto University was still flickering with the lights of commotion. Under the firelight, there was a pair of young people hugging each other tightly in the car.

Miyagawa hugged Beihara, holding him tighter and tighter, as if he was afraid that once he let go, he would never see the man in front of him again. I don’t know how long it took, but Miyagawa’s slightly crying voice sounded:

"Beiyuan, you must tell me wherever you go out in the future, okay?"

"If you come back late, be sure to tell me, okay?"

"it is good."

……

Kyoto is not peaceful today.

The rescue work for the Shinkansen train derailment was finally completed at 1 a.m. The last injured person was taken to the hospital. After that, they worked overtime to clean up the train wreckage and repair the tracks. The Kyoto Municipal Council held an emergency press conference, promising to investigate the cause of the accident and uncover the truth. At the press conference, it is said that a reporter asked whether the cause of the accident was caused by a black Mercedes-Benz crashing into the track. Municipal committee members did not answer directly. In the end, the press conference ended hastily in dissatisfaction.

In a very short period of time, families of the victims formed groups to hold sit-ins outside Kyoto City Hall and Shinkansen stations following the train derailment incident. The grieving family members did not understand why the train derailed like this. They firmly demanded that Kyoto's Municipal and Emergency Management Bureau commit to announcing the future investigation links and opening up all investigation materials.

People in the izakaya late at night were all talking about this unusual derailment.

The citizens must have never imagined that this major accident would be related to a lawyer named Eto.

The scene at the Shinkansen station was still flashing with red and blue firefighting lights, and piercing sirens sounded from time to time. There are constantly large cranes and excavators entering and exiting the tracks.

At Kyoto University, the university's management was surrounded by students in the conference room until nearly 12 noon the next day. In the end, the university administration compromised with the students.

Takeuchi was officially declared out of office.

More than just the administrative role of Vice-Chancellor.

The teaching position was also dismissed.

The students appeared to have achieved a major victory.

But where should this troubled national university go from here? The reputation of this top institution is in jeopardy under the attack of a series of scandals. Moreover, people at the university still don’t know about Okawara’s patent infringement. Once this is exposed, it will become a huge scandal in the world, and no one knows when it will explode.

Now that Takeuchi has stepped down, who will take over the rest of Kyoto University's business? The large deficit in university budgets caused by the industry-research cooperation strategy, the low morale of faculty and staff caused by high-pressure thesis assessment, and the presence of accounting investigators stationed on university campuses have made everyone in office panic. The reforms that Takeuchi had implemented halfway through were like a dying old man, half of his body already lying in a coffin. Some scholars and professors representing Qingliu failed to obtain the consent of the university directors to gain real power. Who can lead Kyoto University out of this situation?

Where will Kyoto go?

And where will Beiyuan go?
