Tokyo Barrister: Start the law firm bankruptcy

Chapter 610 Confused

Imanishi's face turned pale, and he stood stiffly at the door of the conference room, muttering to himself: "How could this happen? How could this happen?" Imanishi was indeed frightened by Kitahara. A few months ago, he went to Kyoto and was planning to open a local branch. This is a time when the law firm's cash flow is tight. If there is a problem with the copper warehouse receipt business, the law firm simply cannot afford the legal compensation required to lay off more than 100 lawyers.

I'm afraid that my law firm will go bankrupt in an instant.

The plan to open a branch in Kyoto must be stopped! It must be stopped! !

At this time, the senior lawyer looked back at Beiyuan. Imanishi also had to lament the turning point of fate. If it weren't for Sageko bringing him here more than a year ago. I'm afraid Imanishi doesn't know it yet, but his law firm has already been on the verge of destruction despite its prosperity.

Of course, this kid named Kitahara is still very annoying.

Miyagawa saw that Imanishi looked a little uncomfortable, so he stood up and helped him back to his seat.

"So, Lawyer Imanishi, can you tell me the extent of the Tokyo Bar Association's investigation of Eto Law Firm?" Kitahara looked at Miyagawa's father.

Imanishi opened his mouth and wanted to refuse to answer, but after thinking for a moment, he looked at his daughter again and said: "For the following words, just think that I am talking to myself. You just happened to be in this place and listened. Until I said these words.”

"The Tokyo District Bar Association initially investigated Eto Law Firm because of the 500 million yen warehouse receipt pledge incident at Mizuho Bank. The bank's legal team complained to the Tokyo Bar Association and requested a thorough investigation into Eto's disciplinary violations."

"In the legal industry, it is not surprising that there are occasionally a few scum who take away the client's property. Before Eto, there was a lawyer who served as the estate administrator, but he directly took away the estate and fled overseas. At the beginning, our Lawyers Association I just wanted to go through a regular investigation and then ask the Shinjuku District Judicial Office in Tokyo to revoke Eto’s law license. But——”

Imanishi paused.

"But, what happens next?" Beihara asked.

"Boy, don't worry."

Imanishi raised his head and glanced at Kitahara meaningfully, "I don't understand why you, a graduate of Tokyo University, want to go to this law firm. You went to a very troublesome place."

"Less than two months after the Tokyo District Bar Association opened its investigation, the secretary of the Diet came to intervene in the investigation."

"Secretary of Congress?!" Miyagawa was a little surprised when he heard his father say this. "If the secretary of Congress is paying attention to this case, doesn't it mean that there are members of Congress who are paying attention."

"Yes, I understand that several members of Congress are following this investigation."

"How...several?" Miyagawa couldn't believe it. She has been working with Kitahara at Eto Law Firm for more than a year. The law firm was not large before, as can be seen from its office space. It looks unremarkable on the outside, but it actually attracts the attention of several congressmen.

"Who are these congressmen?" Kitahara said.

Kithara thought of the document bag given to him by Sheriff Nishino in Kyoto. Biological samples from a congressional bodyguard were found in Eto's car. This bodyguard is responsible for the security of three congressmen. If he could confront the congressman who was involved in the investigation of Eto's case, perhaps most of the fog ahead could be cleared away.

Imanishi shook his head, "Boy, you are still too naive. How could those congressmen expose themselves when they interfere in the case? They all inquire through the public secretaries of the Congress. In Congress, about every 3 or 5 congressmen will be equipped with one The public secretary serves them. Of course, the public secretary will have his true loyalties, but, at least on the surface, you can't tell who the public secretary is serving."

"Moreover, there is more than one congressional secretary interrogating Jiang Teng. We have no idea which congressmen are interrogating this case."

"If you don't know which specific congressman is interrogating the case, at least you can guess why the congressman will come to inquire." Kitahara continued to ask. Imanishi's eyes became darker, "The Congressional Secretary started paying attention to Eto's case since we obtained the bank records of Eto and a person."

"who is this."

"Asanuma Eriko." Imanishi said the name.

The moment he heard the name, Beihara was stunned for a moment. Yes, Eto had this woman's business card on his car, and now the Tokyo District Bar Association has investigated the transfer records between Eto and Eriko. Previously, according to the information Yuuki gave him, Eriko may be one of the targets of the Asset Supervision Bureau's investigation of Eto Law Firm.

In this way, all the clues come together.

The former deputy governor of the Tokyo Central Bank.

Now the boss of Shinjuku City’s underground industry.

Kitahara also understood why the congressman came to inquire about this case. Jiang Lizi, as the former vice president of a major Toyo bank, must be the provider and facilitator of many exchanges of interests. Many congressmen's bills, and even their personal campaign donations, cannot be sustained without sufficient financial power.

"Next, we have to talk about the Asset Supervision Bureau." Imanishi's voice continued, "The Tokyo Bar Association has reported Eriko's matter to the Asset Supervision Bureau, asking the Asset Supervision Bureau for further investigation."

"However, I have to prepare for the second 'but'." Imanishi coughed slightly.

"I feel that the actions of the Asset Supervision Bureau this time are very strange. They don't seem to be really investigating Eto Law Firm. Although, the Tokyo City Council, the opposition members put a lot of pressure on them, demanding a thorough investigation that attracted the establishment of the company. However, the Asset Supervision Bureau seems to be slow and unmoved.”

"You say they are trying to shirk and are too lazy to investigate, but I don't think so either." Imanishi raised his head and glanced at the ceiling. "Rather than investigating something, I feel more that the Asset Supervision Bureau is trying to cover up something this time."

"Cover... cover up?!" Miyagawa stood up uncontrollably, "Does the Asset Supervision Bureau want to cover up something about Jiang Lizi?"

Imanishi nodded, "I think so. I heard that the Urakawa Investigator is interested in entering politics. If many congressmen are paying attention to the investigation of Eriko, then there is a high probability that the Urakawa Investigator will join them. exchange of benefits.”

After hearing what Imanishi said, Kithara couldn't help but fall into thinking again.

Before, he heard Yuki say that the Asset Supervision Bureau was coming to investigate Eto Law Firm, but he didn't think it was anything. On the contrary, he felt that this was an opportunity. Perhaps the investigative power of the Asset Supervision Bureau could be used for him, just as he had used the power of the Accounting Inspection Service in Kyoto.

However, now, Beihara found that he still kept things simple.

What if the Asset Supervision Bureau is not here to investigate evidence, but to destroy it?

The previous hope of using the Asset Supervision Bureau to investigate Jiang Lizi seemed to have come to nothing.

Everything seems to have reached a dead end again.

How can I do?

How to investigate Jiang Lizi?

How to fight against the Asset Supervision Bureau?
