What is all this nonsense? If Aki Tomoya heard this, both of them would be very embarrassed.
"You don't need to worry too much about my affairs!"
After Mikoto Misumi's repeated insistence, Natsuyo Misumi finally shook her head and gave up.
"You've come here on official business, haven't you?"
To prevent Misumi Natsuyo from continuing the previous topic, Misumi Mikoto immediately changed the subject.
Natsuyo Misumi's visit to UDI wasn't to see Mikoto Misumi; she still had a client's request.
"Yes, yes, I have important business to attend to, but don't rush, I brought some gifts!"
Misumi Natsuyo didn't come empty-handed; in addition to bringing a request, she also brought gifts for the UDI team.
Just then, Nakado Kei walked into the office. He glanced casually at Misumi Natsuyo, then asked Aki Tomoya, "Who is this?"
"Dr. Misumi's mother."
Just as Aki Tomoya finished his introduction, Misumi Natsuyo walked over with her business card.
Chapter 312 Human Blood Cake (6/10)
Misumi Natsuyo brings the recently popular Happiness Honey Cake.
This product is a huge hit online, and its directly operated stores are packed with people every day.
Aki Tomoya had heard about it before, because Kudo Sayaka had bought it for him on his birthday.
Around the table, a group of people enjoyed the delicious happiness cake, while Natsuyo Misumi began to explain the reason for her visit.
“I am here as an agent. My client hopes that UDI can find out the real cause of her husband’s death.”
Natsuyo Misumi is a lawyer who runs her own law firm.
She primarily handles divorce and labor dispute cases.
“Three days ago, my client’s husband was in an accident on his way home from get off work and died on the spot.”
This case happened three days ago.
The deceased was riding his motorcycle home after get off work when he and his motorcycle fell off the bridge.
Witnesses called the police, but the person was already dead when the ambulance arrived.
Since the deceased had not purchased life insurance, his wife had no choice but to seek other help after his accidental death. She entrusted Misumi Natsuyo to help find out the real cause of her husband's death so that she could demand compensation from the factory, the hospital, or the shop that had repaired her husband's motorcycle.
However, this leads to arguments and disputes.
Because no one will simply admit that the cause of the accident should be traced back to their responsibility.
In order to determine the cause of death and find out who was involved in the accident, Natsuyo Misumi went to UDI and entrusted the task to them, since they were the professionals.
"According to my client, the factory has always required employees to work overtime. If the accident was caused by fatigue driving, then it is related to the factory's illegal overtime system. More than a month ago, the deceased went to the hospital for a check-up. If it was due to a sudden onset of an illness that the hospital could not detect at the time, then the responsibility can be traced back to the hospital. The deceased's motorcycle had been sent for repairs before. If the accident was caused by a malfunction in the motorcycle, then it is the repair shop's responsibility!"
Simply put, we need to find someone to take responsibility.
On one hand, there's the factory that demands overtime but never pays overtime wages.
On one side is a member who examined the deceased but couldn't find anything wrong.
Finally, it was a repair shop that had repaired the deceased's motorcycle, but it's unknown whether all the problems were resolved.
And so the wrangling began.
Neither side was willing to take responsibility, so naturally they wouldn't let Misumi Natsuyo simply dump the responsibility on them.
Misumi Natsuyo referred to them as the "Three Musketeers".
These three musketeers will arrive at UDI together tomorrow.
"By the way, where did the deceased work before his death?"
At this moment, Tokai Rin Yuko asked a question.
"The Happy Honey Cake Factory".
Misumi Natsuyo's words caused everyone who was eating the happiness cake to freeze in shock.
The thought that the cake manufacturer forced its employees to work overtime, leading to overwork and accidents on their way home, makes this "happy cake" hard to swallow!
Only Misumi Natsuyo was able to enjoy the cake with a normal expression.
"The body should have been delivered by now. Please find out the real cause of death!"
The deceased's widow has two young children. If she doesn't think about the adults, she should at least think about the children.
Having a thorough understanding of her client's situation, Misumi Natsuyo was eager to help her figure out who was involved in the deceased's death.
After Natsuyo Misumi left, UDI began an autopsy investigation of the remains.
The Sansuke class is in charge, with the Nakado class helping out; it seems they are trying to gather everyone's strength to investigate the true cause of the deceased's death.
……
After the body undergoes an autopsy, it will be subjected to tissue examination and other subsequent tests.
But these things take time; it's impossible to find them all at once.
The next day, the three musketeers that Misumi Natsuyo had mentioned arrived as promised.
Natsuyo Misumi and the deceased's wife also came to UDI.
Misumi's group, along with Kamikura Yasuo, participated in the talks as the neutral party.
Immediately afterwards, a group of people started arguing inside.
Aki Tomoya was watching from outside the door, next to a little boy, the deceased's son.
It was clear that the little boy was quite disgusted by the scene, and he especially harbored resentment towards the factory manager.
"Please don't make noise like that in front of the children, okay?!"
Kube Rokuro's voice did not interrupt their argument; instead, it intensified it.
Neither side wants to take responsibility; everyone wants to shirk their duties.
Seeing this, even Aki Tomoya couldn't stand it anymore.
Once the room had calmed down a bit, he cautiously went in and asked, "May I ask you a few questions?"
Everyone looked at Aki Tomoya, especially the three musketeers, who seemed to think, "Who are you?!"
"This person is also from UDI. He was present during the autopsy. Aki-kun, do you have a question?"
Mikoto Misumi explained before Director Yasuo Kamikura could.
Since they are from UDI, they don't have much to say.
"What's the problem?"
The hospital's administrative director looked over. Although she had been arguing with the factory manager and the repair shop owner like a shrew just now, she regained her usual composure at this moment.
"The deceased underwent a check-up at your hospital a month ago..."
"Mr. Sano did have a check-up at our hospital, but the initial examination revealed no major problems. Our suggestion was to have him hospitalized for observation and further examination, but Mr. Sano refused our suggestion!"
The steward immediately interrupted Aki Tomoya, emphasizing that the deceased had initially refused their subsequent examination.
The hospital has no responsibility, and the administrator's stance is quite firm.
Aki Tomoya smiled helplessly: "Please don't worry, I didn't say that the hospital has any unfounded responsibility. It's just that the deceased, Mr. Sano, went to the hospital for a check-up and went to the repair shop for motorcycle repair and maintenance at the same time. Also, there were scabbed marks on the deceased's body. So we at UDI want to find out what the connection is between these events."
"I already fixed that motorcycle! It was just a minor scratch, and I checked it thoroughly and replaced all the badly worn parts. I have absolutely no responsibility!"
The repair shop owner shouted loudly.
"Manager, was Mr. Sano at the hospital for a check-up?"
“I was injured and fell off my motorcycle, but they only gave us basic treatment. Our advice at the time was to be hospitalized for observation.”
"Thank you."
Immediately afterwards, Aki Tomoya looked at the repair shop owner.
"He came to me for repairs because his motorcycle crashed!"
"grateful."
He answered immediately without Aki Tomoya even needing to remind him.
Chapter 313 Breakthrough Point (7/10)
The hospital examination, the motorcycle repairs, and the scabbed wounds on the body all overlapped in time.
Although the person passed away three days ago, this information should not be overlooked.
Determining liability for an accident is also within their scope of responsibility, so there are many things that need to be clarified.
"The person died three days ago, why bring up something that happened a month ago?"
The factory manager muttered something to himself.
"The cause of death is subarachnoid hemorrhage, which Dr. Misumi mentioned before. However, it is still uncertain whether it was caused by an accident or death from illness. It is even possible that we need to trace it back to the most recent accident or an earlier one. I just want to confirm whether the deceased, Mr. Sano, had an accident before."
