Crazy, You Call This a Trainee Lawyer Chapter 191

   Chapter 191 Xia Donghai Court, Fang Yunshu testified to himself

   (Today, I took the elderly to the community hospital to get a booster shot of the vaccine. Chapter 2 may be posted later, sorry...)

  Who is Xia Donghai?

   That is Zhang Wei's father-in-law.

   However, as the summoned party, Xia Donghai himself was stunned.

   He remembered that his precious daughter handed over the phone last night, and then Zhang Wei asked if he could do me a favor.

   He himself was in a daze, and he agreed without thinking.

   After all, this kid Zhang Wei, although Li Qinghua can't stand it, Xia Donghai still regards him as his son-in-law.

  Father-in-law helping son-in-law shouldn't be a big problem, right?

   As a result, he received a court summons early in the morning to allow himself to appear in court as a witness.

   Good guy!

  Xia Donghai said that the so-called help turned out to be to let himself go to court.

   But he was also puzzled. He didn't seem to have anything to do with this case. At most, he just watched the scene for a while.

   He is not the person in charge of investigating the case, even if he goes to court, what can he prove?

  Xia Donghai sat on the witness stand and looked at Zhang Wei helplessly.

  Is this a small favor from your mouth?

   Zhang Wei gave his father-in-law a comforting look.

  Unfortunately, neither Xia Donghai nor Li Qinghua sitting in the corner were appreciative.

  Speaking of which, it was the first time for the two of them to participate in the same court trial, but they did not expect to accomplish this achievement under the urging of Zhang Wei.

   "Hello, Mr. Xia Donghai!"

   "Hello, Zhang Wei, today you are..."

  Xia Donghai glanced at the seats of the prosecution and defense, "...Are you a defense lawyer?"

   "Yes, on behalf of the defense Fang Yunshu, I am also calling you as a witness today as the defense!"

   "Oh, then if you have any questions, just ask, I will try to answer as much as I can..."

"OK!"

   Zhang Wei saw Xia Donghai's cooperation and immediately asked, "Excuse me, Mr. Xia Donghai, how long have you been in the Wushu Association?"

   "I joined the Wushu Association since my first internship, and it's been 20 years now."

   "So you have 20 years of field law enforcement experience?"

   "Well, so to speak!"

   "Then the defense would like to ask, how would an excellent field officer handle the report and the incident after receiving the report?"

"This……"

   Hearing this question, Xia Donghai was stunned.

   It doesn't mean that he can't answer, on the contrary, he can answer this question completely, and he can even draw inferences from one case and give a systematic explanation.

  If he can play freely, he can even cite a lot of actual cases, and he may not finish talking in court for an hour or two.

   But what he wondered was that these questions had nothing to do with the case at all?

"be opposed to!"

   Sure enough, after Zhang Wei asked the question, Lan Zhengye couldn't help it.

   "Your Honor, what is the defense attorney planning to do? What does the standard enforcement of field law enforcement have to do with this case?"

   "One more thing, the first witness called by the defense has nothing to do with this case. I don't understand the purpose of a field officer in charge of civil affairs to be a witness in our criminal case!"

   Seeing the strong reaction of the prosecution, Judge Chen naturally also looked at Zhang Wei.

  I have given you permission to summon your father-in-law, but why don't you ask some questions related to this case?

   Let your father-in-law appear in court to solve the doubts in this case, not to let him come up to popularize science!

   "Your Excellency the judge, the defense called me, Yue...Mr. Xia Donghai, in fact, to answer the doubts of everyone at the scene!"

  Zhang Wei almost shouted out the word "father-in-law", but fortunately he realized that he was wrong and changed his words quickly.

"During the trial last Friday, the prosecution summoned a field officer for questioning and evidence collection, and the field officer personally admitted that after she received the defendant's report, she went to the scene to meet the reporter and conduct an investigation. But our I think that the fieldwork's investigation work has not been fully implemented, so I just invited Mr. Xia Donghai, a senior fieldworker, to come and answer this question."

After Zhang Wei explained a sentence, he looked at Chen Fa, "Your Excellency, my client has reported the case many times, can you guarantee that the field staff in charge of handling the case will respond correctly every time? If there is a mistake, there will be no mistakes in the action?"

"This……"

   Judge Chen was helpless and glanced at Li Qinghua, but the latter gave a look of "You can figure it out, I don't know anything anyway".

   "Everyone on the jury, this court now asks your opinion. Do you want to know the operating rules of the field officers when they enforce the law?"

  The jury looked at each other, and after a moment of eye contact, many of them actually nodded.

  Obviously, many of them want to know about the field law enforcement, which is something they are unfamiliar with.

   "That's it!"

   Judge Chen nodded in agreement and waved to Zhang Wei and Xia Donghai.

You guys continue!

   "Okay, then I'll say it!"

After organizing the language, Xia Donghai began to ponder, "Actually, our field law enforcement is not as serious as the public thinks. After we receive a report, the operator will first conduct a preliminary understanding of the case, and then assign it to different departments. , Our field office is generally responsible for the security inspection of civil disputes, such as quarrels between husband and wife, quarrels between neighbors, quarrels between strangers, fights between husband and wife, fights between neighbors..."

  Xia Donghai was on stage and started a long speech.

   Zhang Wei has to admit that his father-in-law is indeed a foreign worker, and his 20 years of on-the-job experience is really not a blow.

   After he talked about some theories here, he could immediately draw inferences from other facts and give a few vivid examples, which instantly attracted the attention of the jury.

  Xia Donghai has 20 years of experience after all, even if he encounters few cases every day, but after 20 years of accumulation, he has already acquired countless experiences.

  These cases seem to be written in his DNA, and a random story is almost at his fingertips.

   That's it, an hour has passed...

  It's been an hour and a half...

   in court.

  The jury was fascinated.

   There were also people in the hearing room nodding from time to time.

   But only...

  Zhang Wei has changed many standing positions. His feet feel a little numb because he has been standing for 90 minutes.

   On the prosecution table, Lan Zhengye held his forehead with one hand, with a headache on his face.

   Zhao Jing next door, she has yawned many times, she is about to fall asleep.

   on the hearing stand.

  Lin Yumeng was already leaning on the armrest, snoring softly, Tie Ruyun resisted drowsiness, but her eyes were bloodshot.

   Zhao Chunming next door looked gloomy and looked at Zhang Wei with cold eyes.

   He kept guessing, what was Zhang Wei's intention to invite an outsider to court?

Isn't    just to waste time?

   And the new people around him, some are taking notes, but more are looking up at the ceiling with their backs to pass the time.

   Too tm boring.

   They were all depressed, how could the witness in the court speak for so long.

   His job as a field worker is a side job. Is his job talking about cross talk?

On the court, Xia Donghai continued.

"...Actually, there are ways to deal with disputes of this type of multi-person fight. You need to ask who made the first move. Generally speaking, the first person to start has the greatest responsibility. For other people, the responsibility is relatively small. However, there are also special cases, that is, multiple people against a single person, even if the single person starts first, it may only be for legitimate defense and other purposes, and they have no responsibility..."

"stop!"

   Seeing that Xia Donghai didn't mean to stop at all, Lan Zhengye couldn't sit still.

   He glanced at the time and objected: "Your Majesty, it's been an hour and a half since the defense called this witness, do you really want him to speak for a day?"

   "If the witnesses continue to continue their science, why the prosecution can only ask the court to temporarily dismiss the witness's qualifications for the sake of the progress of the trial!"

   Seeing that Lan Zhengye was really playing, Judge Chen restrained his drowsiness and nodded as well.

   "Defense lawyer, if you want to continue to ask witnesses to popularize science, you can do it in private, don't waste everyone's time!"

  Since the judge has said so, Zhang Wei has no choice.

   "Mr. Xia Donghai, you're tired after talking for so long, drink some water!"

   Of course, he first has to take care of his father-in-law, which is his duty as a good son-in-law.

"Oh!"

  Xia Donghai hurriedly poured a glass of water, which was already the fifth glass he drank.

   "I would like to ask the witness, do you think she is professional in the fieldwork's investigation and case tracking behavior in the previous trial?"

   "Although there are some flaws in some small details, and after the defendant reported the case many times, her attention to the case dropped significantly, but the initial follow-up investigation of the case was no problem!"

   "So, after reporting the case many times, the field staff actually showed a little disregard?"

"This is also a common thing, because we often encounter some suspicious people, and they sometimes report some inexplicable cases, such as the dead elders dreaming, suspecting that their house was burglarized, but it was actually a neighbor's house. cat……"

"stop!"

   Seeing that Xia Donghai was about to start a long speech again, Lan Zhengye immediately stood up and interrupted.

   "Defense?" Judge Chen also yawned, and then gave a warning.

   If you dare to continue, I'm going to hit the hammer!

   "Cough, sorry, Your Honor!"

  Zhang Wei quickly apologized, then walked to his seat and took out a few photos.

   "Since it took everyone so long, let me ask the last question directly!"

   He spread out the photo and placed it in front of Xia Donghai.

   "Excuse the witness, what did you see?"

   "I saw a dog gate, but it was nailed with planks and nails!"

   "Then what about this one?"

   "I saw a security system, and I saw that these devices are not cheap, but this kind of system is generally found in rich people's homes, and the grade of this house is not worthy of such a system!"

   "Then what about this one?"

   "Good guy, there are still dowels in the windows. Is the owner of this house frequented by thieves, and it's the security system and the dowels?"

   "Not at all!"

  Zhang Wei shook his head. The photos he gave were all taken at the defendant's home.

"Although I have asked the prosecution witnesses about this question in the previous trial; but here, I still want to ask Mr. Xia Donghai, you have been in office for 20 years, you should have entered many families, seen many houses, and also Have you seen a lot of people who live alone?"

"Yes."

   "Then, from your professional perspective, do you think the owner of this house is in some kind of panic and fear?"

  Xia Donghai lowered his head and glanced at the photo again, "I think the owner of this house is very, very scared. She can feel that someone outside the house is threatening her!"

   "Of course, this is all my experience and judgment, and does not represent the real experience."

   This answer is much better than the previous answer from the female field worker.

   "Thank you very much for your answer, my question is over!"

  Zhang Wei thanked Xia Donghai again and returned to his seat.

  The jury had some doubts about the last question, and some people even started to make eye contact with each other.

   "Witness, I want to ask, what is your relationship with the defense lawyer, and why is he so polite to you!"

  Lan Zhengye could naturally see that Zhang Wei had an obvious difference in attitude when questioning this witness and other witnesses.

   "That kid...cough, the defense lawyer is my son-in-law!"

  Xia Donghai did not deny it, and directly stated the relationship between the two.

"son in law?!"

  Lan Zhengye obviously doesn't know Xia Qianyue, but this doesn't prevent him from continuing to ask: "So since you have such a relationship with the defense lawyer, wouldn't your answer be..."

"Prosecutor, I don't know what you're trying to say, but I thought it through and made an answer based on what I actually saw. Just like those photos, I made a reasonable judgment based on 20 years of field experience. , it has nothing to do with whether I am the father-in-law of the kid. As for the previous popular science, the same is true, my answer has no direct connection with the kid. "

   "Besides, my daughter hasn't passed through his house yet, so legally, he and I are actually two strangers. At most, we just know each other's name and occupation."

"This……"

  Lan Zhengye was speechless when he saw that Xia Donghai's answer was well-founded.

   In addition, Xia Donghai, a witness, has worked in the field for more than 20 years. He is conscientious and dedicated, and he can't find any breakthrough.

   "Forget it, this witness has no meaning in itself. It's a waste of time to entangle with him!"

  Lan Zhengye doesn't plan to cross-examine any more, it's a waste of time.

   "Your Majesty, we also end the questioning, and thank this witness for his popular science!"

   The last word "popular science" actually aggravated his tone.

  Xia Donghai got up slowly, his legs were cramping because of sitting for a long time.

   He dragged his numb legs and walked down step by step. Before leaving, he nodded to Li Qinghua in the corner.

   "Defense, do you still have witnesses to appear in court?"

   "Your Excellency Judge, the defense thinks that it's almost noon, why don't we talk about it after dinner, our client just happens to be a little hungry!"

   Hearing Zhang Wei's answer, Judge Chen froze for a moment, and even Fang Yunshu from the defense table opened his mouth.

  The former said, shouldn't this be said by oneself?

   And the latter was speechless, because she was not hungry at all.

   "Forget it, forget it, it just happened that it was delayed for so long, so let's adjourn the court temporarily and continue after lunch!"

   Judge Chen was told by Zhang Weiyi that he was really hungry and decided to take a lunch break.

  The court is dissolved.

   But this time, Lan Zhengye came to the defense table.

   "Lawyer Zhang, what kind of calculus are you playing, do you want to delay time on purpose?"

   "Professor Lan Gao, you misunderstood. If I want to delay the time, I will directly ask the defendant to pretend to be sick, or submit a motion to postpone the trial. Why do I need to do this?"

   "Hmph, no matter what you plan to do, your client will never escape legal punishment!"

  Lan Zhengye snorted coldly and left.

   "Come on, let's go to dinner, Ms. Fang, you will testify in court this afternoon!"

   Zhang Wei comforted, and under the care of the field, he and Fang Yunshu went to the preparation room for dinner.

1 pm.

   Zhang Wei glanced at his phone and found that there was still no news.

   "It seems that there is no way to avoid it. I really didn't want the client to go to court!"

   Obviously, there is still no breakthrough on Zhao Qingyan's side, which makes Zhang Wei very helpless.

   The only thing that can delay time is to let Fang Yunshu testify in court.

  Let the parties face the attack of the prosecution, which is a very dangerous thing.

   In particular, Fang Yunshu has also been followed and followed, and has been in a trance for the past few months.

   Now you're going to have her face cross-examination by a high-ranking prosecutor, this isn't going to feed a sheep into a tiger's mouth.

   But there is no news from Zhao Qingyan, so Zhang Wei can only do this.

   returned to the court scene again, and as Judge Chen hammered the announcement, the trial continued.

   "Defense, call the next witness!"

   Zhang Wei got up helplessly, "Your Excellency, the defense requests that the defendant Fang Yunshu be summoned to testify in court!"

   "Allow!"

   Judge Chen struck the gavel, but secretly said in his heart that he finally came.

   It took so long this morning, but when the defendant came up in person and continued to toss, his old waist couldn't take it anymore.

  Lan Gao Jian also saw Fang Yunshu preparing to testify in court, and there was a look of confidence in his eyes that he had expected.

  Because he knew that the defense actually didn't have much chance, and Fang Yunshu was their last resistance.

   After the defense's self-evidence is over, his cross-examination will also be the prosecution's lore!

   But for now, let them speak in court for a while,

  Though he knew, these were meaningless.

   But watching the opponent struggle with all his strength, and finally get slapped to death by himself, is also a great pleasure.

   All in all, Fang Yunshu is in court.

   "Ms. Fang, as the defendant in this case, you must have a lot to say to everyone, right?"

  Zhang Wei took the lead in asking the question and repeatedly emphasized "a lot".

  In the voice of his words, if you want to say more, say more, otherwise it will be the prosecution's turn to cross-examine, and you may not have a chance.

   "Yes." Fang Yunshu nodded.

   "Okay, please go to court and tell everyone what you want to say about the murder of Zeng Xiang. Anyway, I don't need to ask questions, the jury is waiting for your response!"

  Zhang Wei retreated to the side of the jury and gave way to the stage.

   Fang Yunshu lowered his head, and after a moment of deliberation, he raised his head and looked at the jury.

   "Let me state first that I will not deny that I killed someone because I killed my ex-husband. This is an indisputable fact!"

   "But you may not know that when he died, my heart was actually a little relieved, because the long-term fear he had placed on me finally disappeared!"

   "I didn't admit that I was afraid, so I killed people, but after killing my ex-husband, I didn't know how scared I used to be, so I didn't feel it until he died in front of me..."

  Fang Yunshu began to testify, but the first thing she did was to admit that she killed Zeng Xiang.

   "Oh, take the initiative to admit the crime, good means!"

   On the prosecution stand, Lan Zhengye was a little surprised when he looked at the defendant who started to tell the story on the witness stand.

   It is impossible for an ordinary defendant to do this. Even if you kill someone, you will try to deny it.

   But this defendant is actually uncharacteristically, and there is obviously someone pointing the way.

   This person is obviously Zhang Wei!
