Chapter 756 Goodbye

10:23 am.

Tokyo Central Bank, 30th floor of the main building.

This is also one of the first floors of the bank's office hall, but it has more meeting rooms. Although some departments also work here, the main purpose of this floor is to hold important meetings.

Several meeting rooms are being used.

There were people patrolling at the door of the conference room.

He seemed to be on high alert.

These people are prosecutors from the Financial Services Agency.

Although the settlement between the Tokyo Central Bank and the Financial Services Agency is progressing in an orderly manner, the Financial Services Agency still needs to question some of the bank's employees involved in the violation and take notes. Although it may not be used as material to prove the illegal facts, in order to reach a settlement, some basic facts should also be clarified to help determine the basic amount of the settlement.

The bank's employees were summoned for questioning in the meeting room.

"Lawyer Kitahara, do you want to question him alone next?" said a prosecutor from the Financial Services Agency in the room.

Kitahara nodded.

"Yes, I want to ask him alone."

"But this... I'm afraid it's a little inconsistent with the investigation process." The prosecutor said hesitantly. According to the practice of the Financial Services Bureau, if a person involved in a case is questioned, there are usually three prosecutors present, two of whom conduct the questioning and one of whom is responsible for recording.

Now that the lawyer has requested to conduct the interrogation himself, it is clear that the procedures are not in line with the investigation regulations.

"Okay. Let's just listen to Attorney Kitahara. Director Kurosaki has told us before. We have to follow Attorney Kitahara's arrangements." said another prosecutor.

"I will talk to him alone first. After we finish talking, you can come in and question him again. I think that my talking to him alone first will help open up the situation for the next investigation." Kitahara said.

After all, Kitahara has begun to have a certain reputation in the Financial Services Agency. The prosecutors in the room are also inclined to follow Kitahara's arrangements.

"Okay, then I'll trouble you next." After the prosecutor finished speaking, both of them left the room.

After waiting for about 10 minutes, I heard footsteps outside the meeting room, as if the person being questioned had arrived.

"Go in." A command was faintly heard from outside the room.

Then the doorknob turned.

The door to the conference room opened.

A figure appeared outside the door.

He was a bit bloated, and his facial features looked a bit fierce, like someone who was used to being arrogant, but his eyes were lost and lifeless, as if he had lost his soul.

This person is Deputy President Shirai.

He is now suspended.

From being close to the pinnacle of power in the bank to being what he is today.

Shirai pulled out a chair and sat down. He looked at the lawyer in front of him. Perhaps because he remembered the anger and humiliation of the failure in the board meeting, his depressed expression suddenly flashed with excitement.

"How many times do you have to ask me?" Shirai said dissatisfiedly, "You have already questioned me several times, and the signed transcripts are almost a hundred pages long. Is there something else you haven't found out?"

Kitahara looked at Shirai in front of him.

The reason why I want to talk to him alone today is very simple.

That is, to find Shirai and ask him about Eriko.

I am not very interested in the grievances within the Tokyo Central Bank.

His goal is to find Eriko and then Eto.

"Isn't it nice to chat?" Beiyuan stroked the cup beside him, "Chatting with more people can help you relieve your depression."

When Shirai heard this, he became even angrier.

To this day he refuses to admit that he lost to Hanzawa.

He believed that the reason for his failure was the lawyer named Kitahara in front of him. If Hanzawa had not borrowed the power of the Financial Services Agency, how could he have found out such a thing.

"It's you!" Shirai said heavily.

"Today, I am here to talk to you in my personal capacity." Kitahara said with a smile, "Please do not regard me as a consultant lawyer for the Financial Services Agency from now on."

"Personal name? Lawyer Kitahara, it seems you have a lot of secrets." Shirai also sneered.

"It depends on whether you are willing to tell me." Beiyuan's eyes flashed coldly.

Shirai suddenly shuddered.

The scene where the board of directors was shocked by this lawyer was still vivid in my mind.

What's more, the lawyer still has the evidence against him.

Yes, enough evidence to get you sent to jail.

"I haven't reported to the Financial Services Agency that you accepted a luxury property from Eriko." Kitahara's lips curled up slightly. "Whether the Financial Services Agency will know about this depends on how well you cooperate with me next."

"You're such a monster." Shirai gritted his teeth.

There was no way out, so the vice president had to give in.

"What do you want to know."

"I want to know someone. Her name is Eriko."

"Everything about her." Kitahara's eyes were fixed on Shirai.

When Shirai heard the name "Eriko", he was also stunned.

"Wait, didn't you just say that you don't represent the Financial Services Agency? Now it's just a personal question between the two of us. Why are you asking about Eriko again? Do you have a personal connection with Eriko?!"

"You don't have to answer about my personal situation. I can guarantee that nothing you say during the time you are alone with me will be recorded." Kitahara said.

Shirai didn't expect that lawyer Kitahara actually came for Eriko.

This was far beyond his imagination.

But this way, it seems to make sense.

Why is it that while the lawyer is serving as an advisor to the Financial Services Agency, he is also helping Hanzawa.

From the very beginning, the lawyer's target was Eriko!

"You have to think it over carefully, Lawyer Kitahara." Shirai said in a deep voice, "Some things, once you know them, you can't turn back. Are you really ready for this?"

The light in the room was somewhat pale.

Shining on the faces of two people.

Quiet, very quiet.

Even the ticking of the clock can be heard clearly.

Shirai once again sized up the lawyer in front of him.

This is a very young person.

He looks like he just graduated from college.

Why on earth would such a young man be related to Eriko?

Shirai shook his head and decided not to think about the lawyer in front of him anymore. After all, he already felt that the man in front of him was someone who could not be judged by common sense.

Although he is a young man, he feels that Kitahara is unfathomable during his fight with him.

He opened his mouth and said:

"Okay, now I will start telling you everything I know about Eriko."
