Crazy, You Call This a Trainee Lawyer Chapter 269

   Chapter 269 Xiao Baihe attacked and blocked the first round?

   (Maybe there is only 1 update today, the 9000 monthly pass at the last moment yesterday was added, I will check the time, and try to code it for the big guy tonight!)

  The wind direction in the courtroom has changed.

   Although it was originally because of Wen Xiaoyun's parents' tragic "performance", the wind had turned to the prosecution.

   But with the answer from the witness Lao Cui, this trend has been completely finalized.

   According to her, during the investigation of the case ten years ago, his leader actually met with Yang Chuanfang's father, Yang Changqing, the owner of the Evergreen Hotel.

   This is amazing!

   Is there something tricky in it?

Is there any problem between    Lao Cui's leader and Yang Changqing?

   Once the material is shaken out, it is extremely frightening to think about...

   All in all, it's not a good thing for the top of the investigation department to hook up with a businessman!

   "Objection, hearsay evidence!"

  Zhang Wei observed the change in the wind direction in the courtroom and quickly got up to interrupt Xiao Baihe.

   He knew that the other party's purpose was to detain his client's father and smear the latter's reputation.

   Anyway, Old Cui has retired, his leader is probably not working in the investigation department, and Yang Changqing has already died.

   Throwing the pot to someone who is no longer there, Zhang Wei is very familiar with this pattern.

   "Defense lawyer, how come this is hearsay evidence!"

  Xiao Baihe saw Zhang Wei stand up, his eyes turned cold, and he also said ironically.

   "Because there is no third party to corroborate this, what the witness said is also unfounded speculation!"

   After Zhang Wei finished speaking, he looked at the old king at the trial seat.

   The latter noticed Zhang Wei's gaze and could only sigh.

   "The objection is valid."

  Xiao Baihe sneered, took his eyes away from Zhang Wei, and looked at Old Cui on the witness stand again.

   "Since lawyer Zhang said so, then Captain Cui, do you have any evidence to testify to your statement?"

  "Uh..." Lao Cui hesitated for a moment, and finally said helplessly: "Although it's not good to speak ill of my immediate supervisor, but we have both retired for many years, and he is said to have settled abroad. I think it should be fine..."

   "Actually, I just wondered if my boss had made some kind of deal with Boss Yang, because the day I saw Boss Yang visit my boss, they seemed to have secretly talked for more than an hour in the office."

   "During the investigation of that case, I only interrogated Young Master Yang once, because the second time I wanted to question the Yang family, my boss warned me."

   "I remember another time, also that winter, my boss took a rare two-week leave to travel to the South Island. The hotel happened to be the Evergreen Hotel in South Island City at that time, and it was a VIP room!"

   With Lao Cui's statement, a vague concept has been formed in the minds of everyone in the audience.

   Yang Changqing, the owner of the Evergreen Hotel at the time, did not hesitate to offer some kind of obscure "goodwill" to Captain Cui's former boss in order to protect his son.

   These goodwill may be a sum of money, a chance to travel for free, or even both.

   All in all, official-business collusion, private bribery, power and money transactions, and even all three.

   On the jury box, the eyes of the 12 jurors looking at Yang Chuanfang changed.

   They seemed to have carved the words "I knew you were not a good thing!" on their faces.

   "Against, inflammatory speech!"

  Zhang Wei got up again, "Your Excellency, the testimony provided by the witnesses is not directly related to this case in the strict sense."

   "The case in this trial is about the disappearance of Wen Xiaoyun ten years ago. My client's deceased father and the witness's supervisor had a close relationship, but in fact it has nothing to do with this case!"

   "On the contrary, because the testimony of witnesses is very inflammatory to the court, we urge the prosecution to change its questioning strategy, and ask the prosecutor not to continue attacking an old man who has passed away!"

  Pharaoh thought for a while, it seems that what Zhang Wei said does have some truth.

   He looked at Xiao Baihe, and after thinking for a long time, he warned in a negotiating tone: "Prosecutor, I know your purpose, but please think about the purpose of this court, don't worry about the dead old father!"

   "Okay, Your Excellency, I understand!" Xiao Baihe naturally nodded in agreement.

   But she looked at Zhang Wei with a hint of provocation and a hint of pride.

same.

   At the court scene, everyone could see that Xiao Baihe had the upper hand in this round.

   "Good guy, Zhang Wei has been suppressed by prosecution!"

  Tie Ruyun, as Zhang Wei's "former leader", naturally saw that Zhang Wei was at a disadvantage.

   But there is no way, because what Xiao Baihe put forward happens to be what people hate to see and hear the most.

  Little Xiao pointed out in court that the jury will definitely be affected.

The little apprentice and Xiao Li on the side of    also felt bad.

   "He panicked, he panicked!"

   "This kid finally panicked, I can feel that he has lost the calmness he had before!"

   Similarly, Hu Yaode, who was sitting in the hearing box, was also excited.

   Good you Zhang Wei, you are finally panicking!

   It should be said that Xiao Baihe, the ace of the local inspection headquarters, was able to push Zhang Wei to such a degree.

  Hu Yaode was very excited, and a long-lost smile appeared on his face.

   Keep going according to this rhythm, this is stable!

  Hu Yaode made a choice that went against his job. Although he was a lawyer, he planned to silently cheer on the prosecutors at the Procuratorate Headquarters in his heart.

  Lily Xiao, come on!

  You are good, **** Zhang Wei to death for me, **** him to death!

   Not to mention the fact that although Hu Yaode is a defense lawyer of black feet, he cheers for the prosecution.

   The atmosphere in the court at the moment, as he said, is overwhelmingly unfavorable for the defense.

   "Your Excellency Judge, we have nothing to ask about Team Leader Cui!"

  Xiao Lihe finally ended the question and let the stage out.

   Zhang Wei got up immediately and walked quickly to the witness stand.

   He took a deep breath, feeling the same pressure.

   This was the first witness, and almost killed them.

  Old Xiao is really ruthless!

   "Hello, Lao Cui!"

   "Ah, what did you call me?"

   Hearing Zhang Wei's opening remarks, Cui Lao was stunned.

   "Didn't you tell us to call you Lao Cui, I called you, what are you doing?"

   Zhang Wei spread his hands, I just followed your wishes, why are you still showing such an expression?

   Mr. Cui is depressed, I just want to be polite, why do you take it seriously?

  You young man, you have no quality, do you know how to respect the old and love the young.

   Is it appropriate for you to call me Lao Cui?

   If you are polite, just call me Cui Lao, or just like the prosecutor girl, call me Cui clerk.

  You young man, calling me Lao Cui, is that a good word?

  Unfortunately, Zhang Wei didn't know about Old Cui's mentality and activities, and he still didn't change his mind.

   "Old Cui, now I ask you, you just accused my client's father of some kind of irregular transaction with your immediate superior, isn't that so?"

   "I... I just said what I saw." Cui Lao hesitated, then said.

   "Then let me ask, have you seen some kind of informal transaction between them, such as my client's father giving your leader money and gifts?"

   "That's not true."

   "After your leader retired, have you been investigated by the Internal Affairs Investigation Division?"

   "Neither."

   "As far as you know, has anyone in your office wrote a report letter against your immediate supervisor?"

   "Neither of course."

   "There's nothing, doesn't that mean that these are just your unilateral, groundless guesses?"

"This…"

   Mr. Cui thought for a while, and said quickly: "But I have seen a lot of things. For example, the second year, my leader changed to a new car. His salary can't afford a luxury car of hundreds of thousands."

   "Maybe it's a loan, maybe his son earns money to honor his father, have you asked him about it?"

   "How dare I ask..."

   "Then don't you have to?"

Zhang Wei sneered and looked at the witness: "Old Cui, you are also an experienced operator. When I ask you to testify, don't make those unfounded guesses, which will bring great harm to my client. difficulty!"

   Old Cui looked stunned, what do you mean by my unfounded guess, isn't it all true?

   And this is not what I wanted to say on my own initiative. It was the public prosecutor who asked the question and I answered it, right?

   "Cough, since the witnesses answered this, then I can conclude that there was no evidence at that time to prove that there was some kind of transaction between the witness's immediate leader and my client's father."

   "As for the allegations made by the witnesses, there is no relevant evidence to support this. If his immediate leadership has violated the rules, the Internal Affairs Investigation Division will definitely not tolerate such serious malfeasance."

   "Of course Lao Cui also mentioned that Mr. Yang met with the leader for an hour... But please think about it, if your son was arrested, wouldn't you parents have no reaction at all?"

   "Are you also eager to find the leader of the investigation department, then pester them for an hour, and then intercede for your son non-stop, I believe you will do the same?"

   "Mr. Yang, just did what a father should do, that's all!"

   Following Zhang Wei's summary, the jury's eyes on Yang Chuanfang decreased, and a few people showed thoughtful expressions.

   Obviously, they are also considering the possibility mentioned by Zhang Wei.

   Although this possibility is unlikely, it cannot be said that there is no.

  The wind direction of the court finally shifted slightly towards the defense.

  Although the direction of the wind is biased towards the control side, it is at least a good start.

   At the hearing, the friends headed by Tie Ruyun finally showed a glimmer of hope.

   "As expected of Zhang Wei, in just two or three sentences, I saved some of the decline!"

  Tie Ruyun sighed with emotion, if this were replaced by himself, he might not be able to be as calm as Zhang Wei.

The little apprentice and Xiao Li on the side of    even exclaimed in their hearts "Master is great", "Zhang Wei is amazing" and so on.

   "Fuck, that kid caught it all?"

   Hu Yaode, who was sitting next door, looked unhappy.

   I thought that this combination of punches could kill Zhang Wei, and even if he couldn't kill him, he could still be half-crippled.

  Unexpectedly, this kid came to the stage and said a few words, and he defused this offensive.

  Hu Yaode felt that he should not have changed his position so early just now.

   What is the headquarters of the local inspection department? It's unreliable!

   "Cough, lawyer Zhang, do you want to ask any more questions?"

  Pharaoh saw that the court was a little cold, and hurriedly mentioned it.

   "Of course, Judge Wang, I still have a lot to ask about the merits of the case!"

Zhang Wei walked to the witness stand again and asked, "Old Cui, since you were the cadre of the investigation department who was in charge of investigating this case back then, and you are also the former leader of the serious case 1 team, then I want to ask you, you Did you make any reasonable exclusions when investigating the case at that time?"

   "Of course, we not only compiled the testimony of all the witnesses, but also visited many residents near the Evergreen Hotel and asked if there were any witnesses that night."

   "What about the result?"

   Hearing Zhang Wei's question, Cui Lao looked embarrassed: "Finally, we found out that Wen Xiaoyun's whereabouts are unknown, and even the assistance dog has not traced her traces!"

   "Then according to the procedures of the Investigation Division, if a person has been missing for how many years, will he be considered dead?"

   "According to the process, if a person has been missing for four years, and the interested person applies, he will be declared dead!"

   "So Wen Xiaoyun was applied for death?"

"Yes."

   Hearing what Mr. Cui said, Zhang Wei smiled.

   "That means Wen Xiaoyun was 'dead'?"

"be opposed to!"

  Xiao Baihe stood up decisively and interrupted: "Your Excellency, there is no concept of 'being killed' in the judicial world!"

   "Lawyer Zhang, you..."

   "Your Honor, I take back what I just said!"

   Zhang Wei apologized faster than Pharaoh opened his mouth.

   But then, he turned to the witness stand again, "Old Cui, haven't you found the body yet?"

"Yes!"

   "Then according to your process, if there is no clue to confirm the body, it is impossible to judge whether the victim killed or committed suicide, and it is even more impossible to judge whose hands the victim died."

   Zhang Wei said, pointing to the defense table, "Even if Wen Xiaoyun was really killed, can you say that my client is the murderer?"

   "This is definitely not possible. The murder charge is a very serious crime. There is no conclusive evidence. No one can testify against others for murder. This behavior is enough to constitute slander and slander!"

   "So now I want you to tell everyone in court whether my client is the murderer!"

"be opposed to!"

   Hearing Zhang Wei's request, Xiao Baihe immediately objected.

   "Reason for objection?" Zhang Wei raised his eyebrows and looked at the bench again.

   "Prosecutor, the reason for objection?" Lao Wang also looked at Xiao Baihe.

  The latter immediately gave an explanation: "The defense lawyer is leading the witness to speculate!"

"Your Majesty, I'm just asking the witness to tell the established facts. He is a retired officer of the investigation department and should be familiar with our process, and I don't think there is anything wrong with my question just now. Bar?"

"this…"

   Seeing Xiao Baihe and Zhang Wei arguing again, Pharaoh had another headache.

   "The objection is invalid, the witness needs to answer this question!"

   Seeing Lao Wang supporting Zhang Wei, Xiao Baihe's eyes narrowed, but he could only sit down angrily.

  Old Cui could only sigh when he saw this, and said helplessly: "Our investigation department is a place to talk about evidence. If there is no strong evidence to prove this, then we will not say that someone is the murderer!"

   "Similarly, as long as Wen Xiaoyun's body is not found, although we can list the defendant as a suspect, he is just a suspect, not a murderer!"

   As soon as the answer came out, the wind direction in the courtroom changed slightly.

   On the jury's bench, the original hostility towards Yang Chuanfang was reduced a lot, and even a few jurors showed understanding.

   "Very good, thank you for the witness's answer, the defense has no problem!"

  Zhang Wei was very satisfied with this effect, and immediately ended the cross-examination.

   Back on the defense stand, Yang Chuanfang couldn't help giving Zhang Wei a thumbs up.

   "Lawyer Zhang, your speech is very wonderful. You deserve to be an ace lawyer. You are better than the lawyers I have contacted over the years!"

   Zhang Wei was so praised, but he just shook his head, but his face was not good-looking.

   "Young Master Yang, this is the first witness, I already need to deal with this, the prosecution's attack has just begun, and ah..."

   He said, looking at the prosecution victim's family seat, the old couple looked at Yang Chuanfang, still full of hostility.

   "The prosecution still has a big move yet to come out, we can't take it lightly!"

   The so-called big move is naturally the family of the victim.

   This has always been the "nuclear weapon" of the court.

   "Old Cui, you can go down!"

   Old Wang also urged. Old Cui glanced at Zhang Wei and Yang Chuanfang, and nodded to Xiao Baihe and Old Wang before leaving the court.

   "Prosecutor?"

   "Your Excellency, I will call a second witness to testify in court!"

  Xiao Baihe immediately got up and announced the second witness to appear in court.

   A slightly chubby man in a suit and a leader walked onto the court.

"Ali?"

   Seeing this person, Yang Chuanfang on the prosecution table was slightly taken aback.

"I know who she is. In fact, I just happened to investigate him. This is one of your former friends, or your high school and college classmates. His father was in the decoration, and he also lived with your father back then. They The father and son are both the sons of your family, right?"

   Zhang Wei said at the end, but there was no ridicule in his eyes.

  Because from the current situation, this dog leg may be about to "betray".

  Because of this, he actually agreed to be a witness for the prosecution, which is not a good thing.

   "Hello, witness, please introduce yourself."

"OK."

The man glanced at Yang Chuanfang and introduced himself: "My surname is Han, my name is Han Juli, and my family is in the decoration business. My father used to be with Boss Yang, and Young Master Yang and I were high school classmates who had already graduated from college. We left after Young Master Yang. Before Dongfang Capital, we were all friends."

   "Then that means you know Young Master Yang very well?"

   "It's okay, at least if Young Master Yang has any activities before, he will call me."

   "Then do you know Wen Xiaoyun?"

   "I've met a few times. She is a very beautiful girl. Later, she and Young Master Yang got together. Unfortunately, after that day..."

  Han Juli said, glanced at the family seat of the prosecution, and then quickly lowered his head.

   "Mr. Han, although I know you and the defendant are friends, I asked you to testify in court so that you can tell what is related to the defendant. Will you have any psychological burden?"

   "Of course not, I will tell everything I know in court!"

   "Okay, may I ask Mr. Han, what kind of person do you think the defendant is?"

   "Young Master Yang, he is an impatient and impulsive person. He sometimes..."

   "What will happen?" Xiao Baihe quickly asked.

  Han Juli said, looked up at Yang Chuanfang, his eyes dodged a little.

   "Sometimes he does things without considering the consequences, and even hurts the people around him!"

   As soon as this statement came out, the audience was in an uproar.

  Because the witness's accusation is telling everyone that the defendant may hurt Wen Xiaoyun!
