Tokyo Unnatural Forensics

Chapter 177, National Discussion
Compared to other countries, Japanese citizens have a relatively high level of trust in the police (although it has declined significantly compared to the Showa period), and Uesugi Muneyuki's personality has always been like this: he says what he thinks, whether it's the Fujidai case, the Chiba Prefecture case, or the University of Tokyo case, his overall emphasis is on speaking the truth and sticking to the facts. Coupled with his personality as a descendant of Uesugi Kenshin and Uesugi Kagekatsu, plus his excellent appearance, he is naturally very convincing.

If we put aside his neurotic charlatan mode, Uesugi Kenshin was actually a righteous and retro-obsessed person who always hoped to make Kanto and even the world return to the model of the Muromachi shogunate. Uesugi Kagekatsu was serious, rational and stern throughout his life. It is said that the only time he smiled in front of others was when a monkey he raised wore his hat and learned to give orders from him during the monthly evaluation.

Uesugi Munesetsu's performance perfectly fits the public's stereotype of Uesugi Kenshin and Uesugi Kagekatsu, and his words naturally seem particularly credible.

The local procuratorate watched the entire live broadcast and was so angry that it goes without saying that two Buddhas ascended to heaven.

The University of Tokyo also watched the entire live broadcast.

"He is indeed a capable man. It is not unfair that our University of Tokyo was defeated by him." Principal Komiya frowned.

If it weren't for Uesugi Sosetsu's insistence, the University of Tokyo would have planned to sentence the defendant to excessive self-defense in a passionate fight, and would certainly not admit that the body was destroyed, saying that it was an accident.

The Faculty of Law of the University of Tokyo is full of talented people, and their people include the police, the legal community, the courts, and the district prosecutors. In this case, the maximum sentence is five years, followed by three years of probation. Professor Tsuda already has a chronic disease, and the application for medical parole was issued by the University of Tokyo Affiliated Hospital.

We are from Dongda from the beginning to the end. What do you have to fight us?
But he happened to meet the tough guy Uesugi Munen!

"Based on this situation, how many years will Tsuda be sentenced to?" President Komiyama asked the Dean of the Faculty of Law at the University of Tokyo.

"The sentence is probably 22 to 25 years in prison. Tsuda could be sentenced to life imprisonment at most, but it is unlikely that he will be sentenced to life imprisonment," said the dean of the Faculty of Law. "It is difficult to apply for medical parole in this case."

"There's nothing we can do. Let's do this." Principal Komiya said calmly, "Inform the alumni association and mobilize all media resources. Try to make everything about the conflict between men and women, salary submission, and housewife issues. Emphasize Tsuda Takako's serious negligence in housework and family finances... Besides, Tsuda is the victim in the first place."

"Yes!"

"Contact Professor William of MIT. He also knows the inside story. Ask him to help write a letter to the district attorney to intercede for us. William is a devout Puritan and as traditional as Tsuda. He will help us."

"Yes."

"Gather signatures from all professors and students of the Faculty of Agriculture and Forestry, as well as the alumni association, preferably more than 1000 people, and petition the Tokyo District Court collectively, hoping that they can show leniency to Tsuda... There is no other way. Uesugi-kun requested that charges such as passion killing not be used, so we can only do this.

Several senior officials of the University of Tokyo who were present had expressions of surprise and humiliation on their faces. It was the first time in history that a forensic doctor like Cricket could force the University of Tokyo into this state!
“Don’t worry, everyone.” Principal Komiya smiled meaningfully. “Uesugi-kun has accepted our school’s special invitation to study for a master’s and doctorate degree, and has agreed to work at our Tokyo University Affiliated Hospital. Although he is very strong, he will soon be one of our Tokyo University’s own!”

All the senior executives present had smiles on their faces.

Our Dongda University is invincible!

Sure enough, just after the Metropolitan Police Department's press conference ended, the University of Tokyo took the lead in issuing an announcement to the public, fully acknowledging all the information and case details announced at the press conference by the Metropolitan Police Department's specially appointed on-site forensic consultant Uesugi Muneyuki, and expressed sincere apologies to the whole society, expressing deep regret for what happened to Professor Tsuda.

However, the previous apology announcement was only a short part, and then the University of Tokyo introduced one thing in a very long article.

Professors from the University of Tokyo always check the accounts!
After the Tsuda case came to an end, the University of Tokyo used this as an excuse to assist more than 130 professors and associate professors from various departments in the four major campuses to audit their families and help these professors who were devoted to academics deal with family affairs.

The results showed that there were certain problems with the family accounts of at least 40 professors. The wives of the professors made large additional expenses without the knowledge of the professors and associate professors, and there was a serious discrepancy between the expenditures and the actual salaries paid.

The family finances of three professors have completely collapsed without them realizing it, some have negative net assets and owe hundreds of millions.

In response to this, the University of Tokyo has been very tough and has deployed all its elite members from the Faculty of Law. As long as the professors want to divorce, the University of Tokyo has stated that it will do its best to help them win the divorce lawsuit and protect their property as much as possible. If they do not want to divorce, the University of Tokyo will also assist them in family wealth reorganization and property division.

Looking at the forms published by the University of Tokyo, the whole society was shocked.

The wife of a professor has spent more than 3.5 million yen on male idols from Kansai Johnny's Office over the past ten years and even rented a house for the occasion. She has SMAP, V6, Kinki Kids, Kat-tun, Arashi, Kanjani8, Taki & Tsubasa, and all kinds of album peripherals, video tapes, clothes, cheering towels, light signs, glow sticks, buttons, photo albums and magazines filling up the 100-square-meter house.

In addition, there are several professors' wives who have been spending a lot of time drinking and carousing outside and looking for gigolos. The wife of a professor named Inaba spent tens of millions of yen on a gigolo named "Roland" in two years. In order to save money, she fed her husband a Korean state banquet (mixed grain rice + kimchi + pickled radish + vegetable salad + mixed pickles + tofu soup) at home, under the pretext that eating vegetarian food is good for health.

Professor Inaba's long-term vegetarianism caused him to be frequently hospitalized due to malnutrition.

It is so sad that anyone who sees it will cry if you hear it.

The various data and accounts released by the University of Tokyo instantly changed everyone's focus. Professor Tsuda went from being an offender to a victim, and the whole society started a big discussion about "housewives", "salary handover" and "marriage phobia". On the day of the press conference alone, a large number of single-income men in Tokyo took the opportunity to check their accounts. On that day, at least 700 single-income families found serious problems with their family accounts and directly called the law department consultation hotline 114-514-1919810 provided by the University of Tokyo in the announcement.

This trend then spread from higher education institutions such as the University of Tokyo to all of Japan.

National audit!
On the same day, websites such as 2CH started a larger-scale discussion.

The statement by netizen "Cold Little Crocodile" received the most likes: "I think we must admit the fact that a normal woman who takes care of one or two normal children who are already in school alone has a seriously undersaturated workload. The so-called "full-time housewives" deliberately avoid this fact, which is the root cause of their twisted sense of value."

"Is housework really hard? Maybe it was true in the 1960s and 1970s, when wives had to do everything themselves. But now, there are washing machines for laundry, electric rice cookers and induction cookers for cooking, vacuum cleaners for cleaning, and water heaters for boiling water. Full-time wives have long been freed from the heavy work of the past by electrical appliances. They have plenty of time to do other things, such as social affairs, chasing stars, and FX (laughs)."

"I think the root cause of Mrs. Tsuda's tragedy is this inequality. Her husband makes a lot of money outside, but she has nothing to do. She also knows that she has nothing to do, so she plays a role in herself and tries to prove her ability by speculating in FX. She relies on her endless time to speak out and gain hegemony over public opinion, forcing her husband and children to admit that she has made important contributions. However, justice is in the hearts of the people, and in the end she couldn't even convince herself, and she ruined her entire family."

The post easily received hundreds of thousands of likes on the site.

"What is the value of being a stay-at-home wife? Is it her right to enjoy the support of her husband?"

"That's not the case. For a professor at the University of Tokyo with such a high level of work, a full-time wife is a must, right?"

"What's necessary? Our country has always been too lenient towards women!"

"My mother is a stay-at-home mom. I don't allow you to say that about her! You can't generalize. There are many excellent stay-at-home mothers, right?"

“Beware of the massive number of individual cases.”

"Perhaps we should indeed reflect on whether it is necessary for husbands to hand over their income in this new era."

"There is no reason to hand over income in the first place. Traditional wives are indeed supposed to run the household, but do traditional wives still exist in Japan today? You can't call yourself a traditional wife only when you are asked to hand over income, and then emphasize modern gender liberation when you are fulfilling the obligations of a traditional wife, right?"

"Wherever Chizuko Ueno's feminism goes, it turns into a pile of shit!"

The ensuing arguments easily lasted for tens of thousands of minutes.

The whole topic was heading towards the confrontation between men and women and could not be stopped at all.

At the same time, another netizen "Xiao Xin Ming Miao" also posted another post.

"In the final analysis, Professor Tsuda earns too little. Let me do some calculations. Professor Tsuda's public annual income is 1500 million yen. After deducting various taxes, three major annuities, and commercial childcare life insurance, he only has about 1000 million yen. The rent of the Tokyo University dormitory is 200 million yen a year, which is already very cheap. Professor Tsuda's son and daughter's annual tuition and private school expenses are at least 300 million yen, and living expenses and car maintenance costs another 300 million yen a year. What can he do with the remaining 200 million yen?"

"If he has a little bit of hobbies and personal enjoyment, the 200 million is not enough to spend! Why doesn't Professor Tsuda reflect on his own problems? If he didn't make so little money, why would Mrs. Tsuda trade FX?"

"As for the other posters here, they don't even make 10 million a year. What qualifications do you have to criticize stay-at-home wives? You don't deserve it!"

"Yes, it's disgusting to think that these Japanese men who only make three or five million a year have the nerve to criticize stay-at-home wives."

Obviously, this netizen should be a female, and is more likely to be a full-time housewife.

This quickly triggered a more violent and fierce war of words.

Everyone even forgot that the Professor Tsuda incident mentioned by Uesugi Sosetsu at the end of the press conference was not necessarily a single-person crime, and there may have been someone assisting, but there is currently no evidence to prove this, so it was finally ruled out.

"Fire the first shot against the support!"

"The Dongda case promotes male awakening. Don't be a provider, don't be a tortoise. Sweep away the routine and be yourself!"

The Japanese gave Uesugi Munesetsu a whole new title: "Uesugi the Turtle Killer!"
