Tokyo Barrister: Start the law firm bankruptcy

Chapter 641: Shame
In his statement in the conference room, Hamano accused the two lawyers of being greedy for money and making unreasonable demands, saying that the city hall had every legal reason to reject these companies. His words were so convincing that it seemed as if the city hall was the righteous party.

Miyakawa bit his lips lightly, his eyes were filled with anger, and his hand holding the pen was trembling slightly.

She particularly dislikes people like this.

Those who do something wrong should admit their mistakes and then correct them.

This is Miyagawa's inner thought.

If you make a mistake, it's okay as long as you correct it.

However, doing something wrong like this and still making excuses and even blaming the other party was what Miyakawa hated the most.

However, I just couldn't refute this unreasonable statement.

Miyakawa hated the other person immensely, and also hated his own incompetence.

Seeing that the lawyer opposite him could not refute him, Hamano smiled and sat back in his seat, leaning back in his chair. Hamano did not regard today's trial as a big deal. Compared with other major cases he had experienced in his life, this was not a commendable counterattack.

This case will end mediocrely like other mediocre cases.

And the opponent will continue to suffer the pain of failure.

At this time, the audience at the back of the conference room, some city hall officials couldn't help but show satisfaction. Their lawyers performed very well today. Originally, some officials were still worried about whether the case would go wrong, but now, they can rest assured.

Iwasa, the judge who decided the case, looked at the clock in the conference room and then at the thick materials on the table. This case cannot be heard today. Since the lawyer of the enterprise applicant has nothing to say, let's stop here today. Iwasa was about to announce the end of today's hearing.

At this moment, a male voice came out of nowhere.

"Just now the other lawyer said that we were trapped in a money trap."

But the lawyer opposite named Kitahara stood up slowly, as if the unfavorable situation in the trial just now had never happened.

"Falling into the trap of money?" The young male lawyer seemed to be talking to himself, asking and answering his own questions.

Then, the lawyer named Kitahara set his eyes on Hamano.

Hamano thought the trial would end soon, but when he saw the other lawyer suddenly stand up, he was slightly startled. Then he saw Kitahara's expression.

It was an expression of extraordinary calm and composure.

Then, he met Kitahara's gaze.

For some reason, he couldn't feel any human emotion from this look.

The next second, Kitahara's voice rang out:
"Since the City Hall thinks that we are money-obsessed, it just so happens that several presidents or representatives of the companies we represent are here today. Xinzhongsheng Industrial Co., Ltd., because your City Hall has been in arrears with corporate accounts, its debt ratio has reached 73%, and its cash flow may be interrupted at any time. Ruidaxing Co., Ltd., in pursuit of your debts, was blacklisted by the City Hall, and many customers are afraid to do business with them. ATP Co., Ltd. invested 50% of their net profit last year in the high-tech park project, and then failed to obtain the qualification to bid."

"I don't see businesses that are obsessed with money."

"What I'm seeing are businesses that put a lot of money on the table because they trusted your city hall and are now stuck in the mud."

"If there is anyone in this conference room who is obsessed with money--"

Kitahara slowly raised his hand and pointed at Hamano, then pointed at the city hall officials sitting at their seats.

"That's you guys."

No high pitched voice. No impassioned intonation.

Instead, he said it in an extremely calm tone.

The city hall officials present couldn't help but widen their eyes slightly. A young lawyer who had only graduated from college a few years ago actually dared to point his hand at them? !
This is simply unheard of.

In Eastern culture, it is particularly taboo to point at others.

Especially by such a young man.

This is unprecedented disrespect.

He really doesn't want to be in Tokyo's legal circle anymore!

Hamano was also shocked by the young lawyer's relaxation and subsequent outrageous behavior. This young man was simply destroying his own future. Why would he go to such lengths for such a case?

Newborn calves are not afraid of tigers.

This was Hamano's first judgment.

But the problem is, this is just plain stupid.

"I would like to ask the other party's lawyer not to focus on who is obsessed with money. The key point is whether our city hall has legal reasons to make the judgment criteria for rejecting the bid. Spending precious trial time on mutual insults is a complete waste of time and disrespects our judges!" Hamano replied immediately.

"It was obviously you who launched the attack first! We are just stating the facts!" Miyakawa immediately retorted.

"You guys really have no manners!" another lawyer next to Hamano accused.

"Shameless people don't deserve respect!"

"You pointed your fingers at our lawyers and other people in the meeting room. What do you mean? That male lawyer needs to explain clearly! What do you want to say?"

"I'll answer for him! Just like what I said just now, you have lost even the most basic sense of shame! How dare you bully the companies that serve you like this!"

"Are companies just little white rabbits? They come here for the money! But now that they don't have the money, they bite back!"

"You were the ones who secretly selected a company with nepotism during an open bidding process! You have seriously violated the law!"

"Speak with evidence! Evidence!"

Suddenly, the conference room became noisy.

Another lawyer next to Hamano and Miyakawa accused each other.

Suddenly, the scene became chaotic.

Amid mutual accusations, Iwasa had to raise his voice to maintain order. Amid mutual quarrels, the first hearing of the first administrative ruling case of the Tokyo Metropolitan Finance Department ended. Shinjuku City Hall probably didn't expect that just routinely bullying a few private companies would lead to a case that arrived at the Finance Department.

When everyone left the meeting room, Miyakawa had a stunned expression. It was obvious that she thought her performance in the trial today was not good. Hamano and a group of city hall officials walked together in the corridor, as if they were very familiar with each other. The public lawyer had a smile on his face and was discussing things with a group of officials. Did they hear their voices in the corridor?

At this moment, neither party probably thought that this case would trigger a butterfly effect. A case between a company and a city hall caused by a bidding process would actually become the beginning of a huge shock in the Japanese political arena...
