Kuno stood in the corridor of the trial court, leisurely admiring the beautiful scenery downstairs from the window. The court testimony has ended, and according to Kawamoto Highway's promise, he will be transferred to the company's office in Tokyo within the next three months.

headquarters and joined the audit department. He could finally return to his old profession and no longer had to stay in the useless G227 Highway Maintenance Center.

Kuno reached into his pocket and wanted to take out a box of cigarettes, but then he thought that he was still in the court, so he had to retract his hand and just patted the cigarette box gently through the pocket.

The "happy" life will come back soon.

Putting interests first is the philosophy of life pursued by Kuno.

One person's gain must come from one person's loss.

This is the most important lesson Kuno has summed up in his decades of life experience.

Therefore, before you get benefits, what you have to figure out is to find those people who you can ride on.

Otherwise, you are the one being ridden.

As for the so-called morality, it is just an excuse for the weak to cover up their incompetence.

"Witness Kuno, the court has summoned you again." A cold bailiff's voice sounded from behind, interrupting Kuno's self-absorbed fantasy.

Kuno frowned and turned around, feeling a little puzzled. Why was he summoned again? Didn't the company's lawyer say that just once would be enough?

The door of the trial court opened again, and the light inside leaked out. Kuno quickly adjusted the expression and facial muscles on his face. After making sure that the "correct" expression appeared on his face, Kuno stepped into the trial court.

.

The lights from the top of the courtroom were a little dazzling, and it was vaguely visible that a young male lawyer was already standing on the witness stand waiting for him. He was wearing a gray suit, and his jacket had a few wrinkles. The whole suit jacket seemed to be because of

He didn't take it for dry cleaning, but put it directly into the washing machine, which caused some damage. He still had a weird smile on his face.

As if he suddenly remembered the scene at the nursing center that day, Kuno felt a little trembling in his heart for some reason, but then he calmed down.

I have been trained many times according to the requirements of company lawyers.

There must be no problem, Kuno encouraged himself in his heart.

"Witness Kuno, I am now asking you a question in accordance with the provisions of the Civil Procedure Law. According to the law, you must answer truthfully. Do you understand?" The male lawyer's voice sounded.

"clear."

The attention of the entire audience immediately fell on this young male lawyer. After the first witness cross-examination of Kuno and subsequent betrayal by Suda, the probative power of the video submitted by the plaintiff had been almost destroyed.

After all, the video that was originally thought to be irrefutable evidence has now turned into a short video that is not related to the case.

Imanishi clasped his hands and stared coldly at the somewhat careless figure. He did not believe that Kitahara could come back.

The two witnesses in today's trial, Kuno and Suda, have all been carefully trained by themselves. Moreover, the middle and senior lawyers in the firm have also taken turns to conduct mock cross-examinations on them. After two weeks of emergency special training, these two witnesses

Several witnesses have even recited their testimonies.

And dozens of lawyers in his firm are already conducting mock cross-examinations, going through all the possible attack paths of the other party, and there is no chance of any omissions.

"First question, how many employees are there in the G227 Highway Maintenance Center?" Kitahara asked relaxedly.

An ordinary question was asked, which formed a very sharp contrast with Beiyuan's sharp court hearing style before.

The huge tension that was still aroused in Kuno's heart was suddenly washed away by the insipidity of this question. What? It turned out to be just this level.

"Including me, there are a total of 56 employees." Kuno raised his head and smiled.

"Second question, are the employees at the G227 Highway Maintenance Center all employees of Kawamoto Expressway?" Kitahara continued to ask.

The second question is equally—or even more prosaic.

At this time, the middle- and senior-level lawyers from Imanishi Law Firm in the auditorium had expressions of disdain on their faces. What kind of witness cross-examination was this? It was simply asking questions in a running account style.

Sure enough, their law firm director is really awesome.

Director Imanishi's first question to witness Kuno was the one that got to the point.

This guy named Kitahara has absolutely no focus during the cross-examination. I guess if he continues to ask questions, the judge will get impatient and interrupt.

Hearing Beihara's question, Kuno couldn't help laughing contemptuously. This was so different from the cross-examination training he received in a law firm, and it was so easy to answer. Kuno replied without thinking, "Yes."

A short answer "yes" is like the moment when the prey steps into the trap, the mechanism starts to make a slight "clang" sound, and the sharp steel teeth of the trap instantly bounce up, making a "whoosh" sound. The sound of wind refracted a steely silver light in the hidden grass, and in the next second it was about to penetrate the prey's legs, splashing a burst of bright red.

Start closing the net.

Kitahara walked to the plaintiff's seat, pulled out a pile of information, and returned to the witness stand. Kitahara was like holding a poker card and playing a king bomb. He just "popped" and threw the card on the table. .

A piece of A4 paper was typed directly on the dock.

The front of the paper is printed "Employee Information Form."

A two-inch blue background photo of a middle-aged man was pasted on the information sheet, and his name was "Suzuki Ryota".

Next to this A4 paper, there is a payment bill.

Kithara sneered at Kuno and said: "Suzuki Ryota is your employee and the inspector of the G227 Highway Maintenance Center involved in the case. On the right is the social security payment record that I obtained from the local city hall in accordance with the law."

The next second, Beihara's voice was suddenly raised: "Kuno, please read out loud which company is paying social security for your nursing center employees!"

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! It was like a hidden corner that had been covered with dust for a long time was suddenly opened, and the stale filth and stench suddenly spewed out, and the dust kept coming. surge.

Kuno's eyes swept around him, and when he saw the name of the company, his eyes suddenly widened, and the calm answer he gave just now was completely gone.

Because the social security payment record does not show the Kawamoto Expressway.

“Read it out loud!!!”

Kitahara's voice stimulated Kuno's eardrums. On the highway, Kuno suddenly understood the intention of the lawyer in front of him and what he wanted to do. He was the director of the nursing center, and he dealt with all matters large and small in the nursing center, starting from the specific details.

He was in charge of all aspects of the road maintenance business, from administration to personnel and staff arrangements. He finally began to understand why the male lawyer in front of him initially asked how many employees there were in the maintenance center and why.

Ask these employees if they are all employees of Kawamoto Expressway.

The male lawyer in front of him caught the weakest point of the Kawamoto Expressway in fulfilling its maintenance obligations.

He is the devil!

He is simply a devil!!!

A drop of cold sweat fell on the table.

"Yes...it's the social security paid by Tobita Human Resources Consulting Club." Kuno said with a trembling voice.

"Bang!" Another employee information form was thrown on the table, followed by the second, third, and fourth... A total of forty-seven employee information forms were thrown on the witness stand.

.

"Ryuji Shiozawa, Ryota Ishimura, Mieko Adachi, Jusaburo Tanimura, Tomohiro Moriyama, Yuichi Kubota, Mika Eda..." Kitahara kept reading the names on the employee information sheets one after another, like an ascetic monk.

Reciting incantations to subjugate demons.

Imanishi, who was standing aside, was already confused. He had no idea what Kitahara was doing. Those pieces of employee information were to prove something or to refute something. However, the situation should be very bad now, because he discovered

Kuno's expression changed dramatically. Imanishi immediately stood up from the dock and loudly said: "The chief judge. The plaintiff's attorney is questioning witnesses on matters unrelated to this case. Please stop the court."

Hearing Imanishi's voice, Kitahara stopped and turned around slowly. The moment he looked at Imanishi, he revealed a ferocious smile.

"Chief referee!" Kitahara faced the referee's seat, holding a piece of industrial and commercial registration materials in his hand, "The maintenance work on the G227 section involved in the case was supposed to be the responsibility of Kawamoto Expressway. However, the social security payment records of employees show that most of the maintenance centers

The employees are not affiliated with Kawamoto Expressway, but are affiliated with another company called Tobita Human Resources Consulting Co., Ltd. This irrefutable evidence shows that Kawamoto Expressway clearly illegally subcontracts the maintenance work it is responsible for to other companies."

"According to inquiries from the local city hall, Tobita Manpower Consulting Co., Ltd. has a registered capital of less than 10,000 yen and has no qualifications related to road maintenance or maintenance. Its employees are not qualified to work on roads. It uses labor dispatch as a disguise, but in fact it intends to cover up the maintenance of the Kawamoto Expressway.

The fact that the work was subcontracted to Feitian Human Resources Consulting Club, which does not have the corresponding qualifications, constitutes a serious violation of law."

"Just now the witness Kuno claimed that he and five employees were on vacation in the video. After investigation, there were 56 people in the maintenance center, and only 7 were regular employees of Kawamoto Expressway. The rest were employees of Tobita Human Resources Consulting Club. Kuno in the video

and the five men were all regular employees and were on vacation. Although Suda was a regular employee, there was no record of patrolling that day. None of the seven regular employees of Kawamoto Expressway went on patrol. The actual patrolling personnel were Tobita manpower who did not have road maintenance qualifications.

Consult the employees of the consulting club! This current situation shows that the daily maintenance work of the Kawamoto Expressway is likely to be completed by the employees of the Tobita Human Resources Consulting Club!"

"Chief referee! Witness Kuye openly signed back the inspection form in the video. The credibility of the witness is questionable!"

"After the trial, witness Suda suddenly changed the content of his prepared testimony. The credibility of the witness is questionable!"

"Kawamoto Expressway illegally subcontracted road maintenance work to Feitian Human Resources Consulting Co., Ltd., which does not have road operation qualifications. There are major flaws in its maintenance work, which is obviously a serious violation of national standards!!"

Every sentence of Beiyuan's exposition sounded like a bell.
Chapter completed!
