Chapter 207: Undercurrent(1/2)

At 12:25 noon, a Western-style fast food restaurant near the Tokyo High Court. A man and a woman were sitting at a table in the corner. There were delicate French fries, macaroni, and a steaming steak on the table. The girl sat

He was sitting at the back, his lips slightly pursed, his expression a little solemn, and the fork in his hand was stirring the macaroni dripping with cream sauce on the plate, and he didn't take a bite for a long time.

Miyagawa raised her head from time to time and quietly stared at Kitahara in front of her. At this moment, the possibility of Takai being denied the right to sue was like a mountain pressing on her chest, making her unable to breathe. Miyagawa could not even imagine that she was the main combat force in front of her.

Beiyuan, what kind of pressure will he bear in his heart.

I want to help Beiyuan.

However, it just couldn't help.

In court, he stood up to refute Gu Meimen, but he was caught in a loophole and almost caused a disaster.

I really feel like a burden, dragging down Beiyuan.

Miyagawa's beautiful fingers were slightly clenched, her nails turned white, and she resented her own uselessness. After struggling in her heart for a long time, the beauty still made up her mind, leaned forward, and asked: "Beiyuan, is there anything I can do?"

Can help."

Beiyuan was wolfing down fast food with his head down, making "bah, bah, bah, bah" sounds from time to time. After hearing the question from the girl opposite, he looked up and saw such a solemn look. He couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and was about to speak.

Then he realized that his mouth was full of food, so he had to take a sip of lemonade and said with a smile:

"You have already done a good job in the lawsuit over the neighboring land's right of way. Leave this lawsuit to me. If you really want to do something, you can read some court documents for me. Let me review them.

machine."

When people are downcast and denying their self-worth, even a little encouragement can cheer people up. Maybe you just say it casually, but for people in the dark ravine, it is a dazzling light.

The moment he heard Beihara's words, Miyagawa's eyes lit up a little. Yes, it would be great if he could play a little more role, even just a little bit. Miyagawa quickly answered, "Okay."

.

Then, this dignified and beautiful person seemed to be full of electricity and immediately started to eat the fast food on the table.

The two of them just hungrily ate the fast food in front of them. From time to time, they would laugh evilly because of the scum on each other's faces. This small table seemed to be a world of its own, absorbing all the troubles in the world.

Isolated outside, enjoying the rare quiet time for two people during the break in court.

Suddenly, there was a "clang" sound, and the door of the fast food restaurant was roughly pushed, and the bell hanging on it suddenly shook violently. A middle-aged man in a suit stepped into the fast food restaurant, with no rude shame on his face.

Expression. After entering, he kept looking around, his sharp eyes carefully scanning every corner, searching for a male lawyer in the store. On the right side of the man's chest hung Mizuho Bank's unique "MIZUHO" nameplate.

The person who came was none other than Shimada.

When the waiter in the store saw someone intruding so rudely, he frowned for a moment and was about to go up to argue. But when he looked up and saw Shimada's fierce eyes like an eagle, he couldn't help but feel a little timid and took a trembling step back.

, turned his head and looked away, just pretending not to see it.

Shimada crossed the tables one after another, but still didn't find the male lawyer. However, he clearly saw the lawyer coming in. Shimada searched until he reached the corner of the restaurant, and when he turned around, he saw the figures of a man and a woman in the corner.

It came into his eyes. It was as if he had gone through thousands of twists and turns in search of him before finally seeing the figure in the dimly lit place. Shimada's eyes widened a bit and he immediately took a big step forward.

"Click, click, click." The loud sound of leather shoes kept approaching the table, suddenly breaking the somewhat relaxed atmosphere that had been created at the table just now.

When Kitahara heard the sound of leather shoes, he looked up and saw the Mizuho Bank nameplate pinned to the man's right chest. He couldn't help but put down the burger in his hand and smiled.

Shimada hadn't eaten yet. Or rather, he had no appetite. As soon as the court session began in the morning, the case was about to be dismissed, which made him experience a roller coaster of emotions. This feeling of switching back and forth on the edge of danger,

It has made him feel so sick that he has no thought of eating.

When he saw Beiyuan eating fast food leisurely, the corner of his mouth twitched. The golden fries on the table exuded an alluring aroma, and the male lawyer looked like he was eating well.

It seemed that the combination of these two aspects suddenly aroused Shimada's appetite.

The hunger suppressed by the nervousness suddenly surged up.

Shimada was originally angry about the progress of the case, and was about to curse, but suddenly there was a sound in his stomach, and the curse words stuck in his mouth again. The vice president looked embarrassed, and then directly picked up the table

The bag of French fries started to be eaten.

"Vice President Shimada, are you so hungry?" Kitahara crossed his legs and said with a pleasant smile, "I can treat you to a meal if necessary."

The young man in front of him always maintained such a calm and calm expression.

So much so that it makes people doubt whether there is anything in this world that can make him feel nervous and scared.

"You have the nerve to say that?!" Shimada quickly disposed of the entire bag of French fries and cursed, "This lawsuit is completely different from what you said!"

After Shimada witnessed the court session in the morning, he was very angry. Kitahara told him at the beginning that this was an extremely simple case. As long as the trial was held, victory would be overwhelming. However, let alone whether it would be overwhelming now,

I'm afraid I don't even have the qualifications to sue.

He was completely deceived by this young man in his twenties.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! This afternoon, the third-party litigation funding company will pay the second installment.

It's not too late to regret it now.

He can afford the first installment alone.

If the second installment, the third installment, the fourth installment...if the subsequent installments were paid one after another, if the lawsuit went against him, he would really have to sell his house in Tokyo and go back to his hometown.

"I quit." Shimada coldly dropped these three words.

Kithara looked at Shimada's appearance, turned his head, stared at the water glass in front of him, and replied slowly, "You know what? It is said that the place where fighter jets are most likely to have accidents is not during air combat, but when returning to the airport after the battle.

time. Because at that time pilots often cause landing accidents because they are too relaxed."

"Sometimes, fate is so wasted." Beiyuan raised his head and looked at the ceiling, "There is also an opportunity in front of you. Some people will choose to seize it firmly, while some people will avoid it and still have to

Throw it far away. The moment before dawn is often the moment when the temperature is the lowest. But as long as you survive it, you can feel the warmth of the sun."

The young man's words seemed to have a bewitching power, emitting invisible threads in the air, entwining the listener's limbs and turning them into his puppets.

Shimada gradually became immersed in Beihara's words for a while. After a while, he suddenly woke up and cursed: "You just like to use this kind of magic words to incite people! Do you think I will believe you again?

What if?!"

Kitahara shook the glass of lemonade in his hand, "Or let me put it another way. In the afternoon, the case will enter the substantive trial stage. You should be able to see how detrimental this case is to the hotel physically.

The reason why the other party seized on the issue of our right of action and launched a frantic attack just shows that the other party could not find any ammunition to refute us on the substantive issue, so it made a fuss about the procedural issue."

"In the afternoon, we are about to usher in the stage where we have the greatest advantage. Are you going to give up before entering our main battlefield?"

The male lawyer's words once again struck Shimada's heart.

Every word stirs up the gambler's desire in Shimada's heart.

Shimada couldn't help but fell into deep thought. With the court opening being so unfavorable, would the hotel opposite have any hidden tricks, or was this the last struggle for the opposite party? Just like Kitahara said, they were actually on the physical issue.

There is nothing you can do, so you can only make a fuss about procedural issues?

Shimada was stunned inside. He stood blankly in front of the table and did not move for a long time.

At 2 p.m., the third-party litigation funding company will pay the second installment.

There was only one and a half hours left for Shimada to make final thoughts.

Should I quit midway?

Will there be any hidden killer moves in the hotel...







At the same time, at a club near the Tokyo High Court.

In the exquisite private room, there are four people sitting on the high-end tatami, divided into two sides, sitting opposite each other. On the left is a pair of male and female lawyers, each wearing a sunflower badge of balance, namely Koumimon and Machiko. On the right is Aobadai

Katsuyama, director of the apartment owners committee, and Mitani, chairman of the Bailezi Restaurant Club.

Shengshan was already sweating profusely after experiencing the morning trial. He ignored the fact that the two lawyers had previously helped the apartment win a lawsuit over the right of way of the neighboring land, and directly said loudly, "What's going on?! Lawyer Dai! Why did we join?"

You have to take responsibility for this lawsuit inexplicably?!"

Katsuyama's words were like lighting a powder keg, which also set fire to Mitani next to him. Mitani immediately echoed loudly, "That's right! How could the contract agreement between me and the Akagi Hotel Group be invalid?! You must give us an explanation!

Otherwise, I will definitely seek compensation from you!"

Machiko's beautiful face twitched slightly. She wanted to explain, but she didn't know where to start. In this lawsuit, she was just a marionette of Gu Meimen.

When she first introduced the third person, she didn't understand Gu Meimen's intention. When she found out that Gu Meimen was actually using the third person's defense to block the opponent, she felt that this was simply a highly imaginative idea.

A powerful legal strategy.

However, now, what initially seemed like a brilliant move turned into a self-inflicted move with the opponent's help.

Gu Meimen seemed to have anticipated this scene. He just picked up a piece of sushi and said lightly: "Don't be stupid. The hotel's interests are basically the same as yours. If by any chance the hotel is really ordered to be demolished by the court,

, then everything you have will be reduced to nothing. Don’t be frightened by a few words from the other party’s lawyer.”

"But the other party just wants money," Katsuyama said, "How could the other party really want to demolish the hotel?! As long as the hotel is not demolished, it will have no substantial impact on the Aoba Terrace Apartment."

"Do you think that with Akagi Hotel Group's wealth, they would care if they demolished a hotel?" Komemon smiled evilly, "If we really lose the lawsuit, given Chairman Kamesaburo's character, he would rather demolish the hotel.

I won’t give them a penny. In this world, many things cannot be measured by money, especially when it comes to fighting for a breath.”

Gu Meimon's words were just to frighten the two parties in front of him. At present, Gu Meimon knew that Kamesaburo was preparing the hotel group's overseas acquisition plan and felt that his cash flow was tight.

They tore down the hotel and didn't pay the other party a penny.
