Chapter 204 Paradise
Tsutomu Matsuo works at a law firm in downtown Osaka.
It's just that he is currently only taking on some very small cases.
But he doesn't feel discouraged.
Rome was not built in a day.
He stood in the heavy snow, waving his arms and shouting loudly.
Perhaps to vent their emotions, but also with the intention of not disturbing the people, they walked all the way from the city to a more remote place.
Until he reached a place where there was basically no one around, Tsutomu Matsuo was like a madman who had escaped from a mental hospital, shouting crazily in the heavy snow.
The sound startled some animals resting in the heavy snow, and then broke the snow on the branches.
In addition to the rustling sounds in the falling snow, there was also a sense of tranquility.
Because it seems that Mr. Matsuo’s shouts did not reach very far.
Mr. Matsuo kept encouraging Koma to shout out.
"If you have been holding something back in your heart, you have to say it out loud. You can't hold it back all the time."
He pointed at himself, then yelled again in a demonstration, and then started to pull Bei Daoma and shout to the woods not far away.
"I don't seem to be worried about anything, or feel anxious about anything." Ju said calmly.
In this case, Matsuo naturally didn't believe it.
"No one in this world is truly free from suffering."
“Everyone’s distress is like the need to eat on time. If you don’t eat, you will starve to death. If there is no distress, people will lose their emotional fluctuations.
Over time, people become numb.
Just like the walking dead, there is no light in their eyes..."
When Mr. Matsuo, who had always been venting his emotions, said this, he suddenly noticed Kitajima's eyes.
Eyes have always been the windows to the soul, but what I saw in Kitajima's eyes was that kind of deathly silence.
Poor Mr. Matsuo instantly realized that the existence he mentioned was right in front of him.
While he was madly complaining about his luck in his heart, his brain was running crazily. What kind of explanation could he use to make this embarrassing experience disappear?
But Ju did a good job of giving a step up.
"I am also aware of this, so I have been working hard to find the troubles, but it seems that I haven't completed this yet, so if you can, you can share your troubles with me.
I feel that if I could clearly understand what suffering is, maybe I would be able to relate to it.
I'm a writer. "
Matsuo Tsutomu naturally walked down the steps that Koma handed him.
At present, he is not a very powerful lawyer. Although he feels aggrieved because he does not have much potential, he also feels happy because he does not fall into anxiety like other lawyers.
All in all, life is pretty decent, especially in this era, having such a career is a good thing.
But just recently, the contradictory but good life was broken by a case.
"It's an extramarital affair, but there's something wrong with it."
Matsuo didn't know how to describe the specific circumstances of this case for a while.
"The clients in the case are a man and a woman."
Kitajima nodded and said nothing.
Usually described in this way, it is basically inseparable from cheating.This man and woman should be lovers.
So either the woman forces the man to divorce, or the man pulls the woman over to compete for each other's interests through legal means.
"The woman is the wife of a medical professor. She is very beautiful and has a high social status.
And the man among the clients is an editor. Since we are responsible for the privacy of the clients, I cannot reveal any identity information, especially since you are still a writer. "
Kitajima said that he would not ask any more questions.
But he didn't feel that knowing it would have any impact.
He basically had no contact with the literary world.
In addition, he doesn't know other people, so he always works behind closed doors.
"They are demanding, suing each other against their families."
"Suit each other?"
Tsutomu Matsuo shrugged and added: "But I cannot find any point for divorce through legitimate legal channels or ask me to find any point for divorce, so that their family can fall apart on this ground."
What a strange reason.
In other words, no one with sound intelligence should say such a thing.
Perhaps knowing that this full of flaws would arouse Kitajima's questions, the distressed Mr. Matsuo continued: "They feel that they love each other very much, but their love for each other is not tolerated by their families. I feel that some of the relationships within the family are still tightly tied and are madly preventing them from continuing to be together."
“So I am required to meet their requirements through some means, and there must be as much legal basis as possible.
They offered me a lot of money, so much that I couldn't refuse.
But this matter is not easy to do at all, because I can't find any clear legal provisions that protect cheating and extramarital affairs.
This request sounds like sewer rats asking people to accept their presence and bless them at the same time. "
Matsuo yelled again, and then held his head in great pain.
After hearing this, Kitajima couldn't help but sympathize with this lawyer who didn't seem to be very successful.
“So, the thing should be like this, a married man and a married woman are passionately in love with each other.
But they are all married and have their own families.
And the reason why they fall in love is just because of a very simple novelty.
Because they clearly know that even the most passionate love will gradually become boring due to being immersed in daily trivial matters after marriage. In the end, people who love each other will only become partners in living together.
If you don't want to do this, then you must always maintain the warmest love. So, what should you do?
This seems like an endless loop. "
"At least that's how it looks from my perspective. But I have to say that I have never thought about this issue, or even thought about it from this perspective.
Thank you very much, Mr. Matsuo, for giving me a great topic choice. "
"I feel that I may not have the heart to be happy with you about you getting a new topic right now.
Because for me, this is a problem. "
“The most painful thing is that this matter was requested by our leaders and is considered a part of the assessment.
This is related to whether I can continue to work in this law firm.
In other words, it means my future. "
