Crazy, You Call This a Trainee Lawyer Chapter 316

   Chapter 316 Cover question, bright moonlight in front of the bed?

  The jury system has been questioned since its inception.

   But the existence of the jury is a good embodiment of democracy and increases the people's sense of participation in the law.

   Of course, it is naturally impossible for the jury to be absolutely fair and impartial.

  The only thing the court can do is to let the 12 participating jurors try to be as objective and fair as possible.

   For example, in different regions and industries, candidate jurors are selected and added to the large list.

   In the pre-trial, coupled with the screening mechanism for questions from both the prosecution and the defense, in theory, it is enough to ensure the fairness of the jurors.

   But sometimes, it just happens.

   In the big list, suddenly there are many, or most of them are women.

   This is not impossible. On the contrary, since the establishment of the jury system, there have been many cases where men or women occupy the majority of the jury, or even one-sided.

   Therefore, although it is very speechless, Zhang Wei knows that he cannot deny the jury candidate by the reason that there are more women on the jury than men.

   And his words and deeds are easily misunderstood by others.

   You say one more thing, the jury is all women.

   It may be spread on the Internet that a well-known lawyer looks down on women and other extreme topics.

  Although this kind of rumors, distorted facts, and out-of-context things are often done by some professional trolls and Internet navy, but Zhang Wei has no time to deal with these people now.

   Then it's not as good, it's better to have one less thing.

   If you don't speak, you won't make mistakes!

   That's what he said, but Zhang Wei knew that he had to do something, otherwise it would be extremely detrimental to Lao Tie for Xu Suyun to remove all the men from the jury bench.

   "Ahem, Your Excellency, I have an objection to the prosecution's question!"

   Zhang Wei got up immediately and interrupted Xu Suyun.

"Although this case is about whoring of prostitutes, the prosecution hastily asked the jury whether any jurors and friends have participated in similar behaviors. This is to spy on the privacy of others' lives and is extremely immoral. Please warn the judge, thank you! "

   Judge Liu couldn't help but nodded.

   You, Xu Suyun, are indeed a little inappropriate.

   How can anyone come up and ask if you have ever visited a prostitute?

   also uses friends as an excuse, when who doesn't know.

   You are so friendly, aren't you yourself?

  So, Judge Liu nodded, then looked towards the court: "Cough, Master Xu..."

  Xu Suyun's face turned cold, and he gave Judge Liu a cold look.

   Judge Liu immediately trembled with fright, scolding himself for making such a low-level mistake.

   "Well, prosecutor, please don't ask these privacy questions, the jury can refuse to answer such questions!"

   "Eventy boy!"

  Xu Suyun heard this, a ruthless flash flashed in his eyes.

   But Judge Liu's words also made all the male jury candidates breathe a sigh of relief.

   This question is really hard to answer.

   If you answer that you have participated, maybe your wife will call to ask questions immediately.

   If you answer a friend, will the wives of those friends catch him and ask who he is?

   If he really said it, wouldn't his friend have to break up with him, can he still be friends?

   Therefore, Zhang Wei helped to speak, which was considered to resolve their embarrassment.

   "Okay, I'll give it to you!"

   Xu Suyun snorted coldly and gave up the place to ask questions.

   Zhang Wei took a deep breath and walked to the court calmly.

   His purpose was simple, leaving the four men on the jury.

   As for the rest, they were definitely women, and he had to screen them too.

   At the very least, those people with relatively extreme thoughts and the most hostile to the old iron should be eliminated.

   Thinking so, Zhang Wei asked the first question.

   "Excuse me, is there anyone in this room who is dissatisfied with their salary?"

   As soon as these words came out, the audience was stunned.

   What is this question, asking about salary?

   Are you sure you are screening jurors?

"be opposed to!"

   Sure enough, there were objections on the spot.

  Xu Suyun got up immediately and asked, "Your Excellency, what's the situation? This is a court scene, not a job application meeting. What does the defense lawyer's question about salary mean?"

   Not only her, but no one in the audience understood Zhang Wei's intentions.

   Zhang Wei laughed in his heart when he saw this: "Stupid, if you want to find people with relatively extreme thoughts, you can't filter out some irrelevant questions if you ask them."

   "Either don't ask, if you want to ask, you have to ask something they care about, and what is more important to them than a wage worker's salary?"

   In the face of Xu Suyun's accusation, Zhang Wei was very calm: "Judge Liu, I think that as a defense lawyer, I have the right to ask any questions, right?"

   "And I didn't ask about the specific amount of jurors' wages, and it doesn't involve any privacy issues. I believe my question is not subject to objection, right?"

   "Lawyer Zhang is right!"

Judge Liu could only nod his head and warned the prosecution: "Prosecutor, your objection is invalid, and the defense is free to ask any questions. If he asks some inappropriate questions, I will warn you! "

  Xu Suyun sat down helplessly, his eyes filled with hatred.

   Zhang Wei smiled slightly, and his eyes fell back to the jury box again.

   "Lady, are you satisfied with your salary?"

   "Of course not satisfied!"

   The woman who was questioned immediately said impatiently: "I work overtime every day, and the salary is enough. Those bosses are too dark!"

   "Oh, looking at you, you are very dissatisfied with your salary?"

   "Of course, I also complained!"

The woman said, akimbo: "In our company, those who are the leaders are basically men, they get tens of thousands of dollars in wages every month, and everything is left to the subordinates to do everything, and they are bossing us every day. I can't stand them!"

   Zhang Wei couldn't help but nodded, then looked at the other jurors.

   He found that many other people quite agreed with this woman's statement.

  This time, he knew it.

  Zhang Wei immediately said: "Judge Liu, the defense appreciates the lady's answer and requests to exclude her and jurors No. 5, 7, 8, and 11!"

  Zhang Wei eliminated 5 people in one go, of course they were all women.

   Judge Liu is clearly aware of Zhang Wei's plan, but his question and purpose are asymmetrical, so he has not found any flaws.

   "Please leave the jury on the spot!"

   Under his command, the five women got up one after another.

After Judge Liu finished speaking, he glanced at Zhang Wei with a hint of questioning in his eyes.

  Zhang Wei naturally smiled and nodded, meaning: I have to continue.

   "Then next, I will do an on-site survey, please cooperate!"

   Zhang Wei said and made a gesture towards the defense table.

  Tie Ruyun looked left and right, and after realizing that it was only him in this direction, he quickly pointed to his face.

   Zhang Wei immediately pointed to his notebook on the defense stand and the projector behind the witness stand.

  Tie Ruyun sighed and understood at the same time.

   Zhang Wei has no assistants with him. Although he is the defendant, he can only be this assistant for the sake of the case.

   Soon, under the operation of the old iron, the notebook and the projector are linked.

   "Old Tie, please open Qiandu and search for the word 'ordinary person' on the search bar."

  Tie Ruyun was stunned, but still clicked on the search.

   As you type "ordinary people", pictures appear.

  The pictures, most of them are self-portraits of men and women, and some family photos, but they are full of smiling faces and positive sunshine.

   Zhang Wei instructed again: "Old Tie, enter 'young man' again and continue searching!"

  Tie Ruyun can only do so, type "young people" and search.

  Suddenly, there are more photos, and many of them are a bit spicy.

   For example, photos of dyeing hair, doing some exaggerated gestures, actions, and even some deadly actions appeared.

   "Old iron, continue to enter 'local' to search!"

  Tie Ruyun was helpless and continued to do so.

   There are many pictures of aunts and aunts with smiling faces on the website.

   "Then 'Outlander'."

   Following Zhang Wei's instructions, Tie Ruyun entered.

The    webpage changed again, and it turned into a photo of many people carrying luggage and wearing shabby clothes, walking in the streets and alleys in confusion.

   "Everyone, now that the photos are over, what do you think?"

"be opposed to!"

   Just after Zhang Wei asked, Xu Suyun was the first to stand up to object.

   "Your Honor, what is this, is it unequal discrimination?"

   She stood up and spread her hands in protest: "This is a courtroom, to judge whether the defendant is guilty or not, not an anti-discrimination speech, we are not discussing social discrimination in the Oriental Capital!"

   "I'm glad the prosecutor mentioned the word 'discrimination'!"

   At this moment, Zhang Wei laughed, "Actually, I never said it was discrimination from the beginning to the end. A few pictures of browsing the web page, what problems can be explained, some people think of it by themselves!"

"you…"

  Xu Suyun immediately frowned, frowning slightly.

   Good guy, Zhang Wei actually dug a hole for himself.

   She was too lazy to speak, so she just sat down and stopped talking.

  Without Xu Suyun's interference, Zhang Wei turned to look at the jury.

   "Everyone, how do you feel when you saw this set of pictures just now?"

   "Sir, come on!"

  Zhang Wei began to take the roll call.

   "I think, the pictures searched on this web page are a bit inappropriate!" The man was also upright, scratching his head and saying.

   "Well, what about this lady?"

   "I don't have any opinion, it's just a few pictures, what could be wrong?"

   The woman's tone was rather impatient, but Zhang Wei kept the woman's reaction in his heart.

   "What about this gentleman?"

   "I think so..."

   Zhang Wei asked five people in a row, three men and two women.

   "Your Honor, we accept jurors 1, 2, 4, and 9, and request juror 3 to leave!"

   In the end, he ruled out the impatient woman, but left another answer with a milder answer.

   "I've finished asking my questions for the time being, Master Xu, do you want to continue?"

   Zhang Wei said, and looked at Xu Suyun again.

   The latter snorted coldly, but got up anyway.

   And Zhang Wei was also able to return to the defense seat.

  Tie Ruyun hurriedly came up and asked, "Zhang Wei, what's the purpose of you asking me to search for this just now?"

   "It's no use, I just let you search casually."

"what?"

   Tie Ruyun is stunned, is this all right?

  I see that the four keywords you searched for are related to a certain extent. I thought you were going to explain some issues.

  As a result, you told me that you just searched casually, this…

  Zhang Wei saw Lao Tie's doubts and explained with a smile: "You think, my purpose is to keep men and exclude women. Of course, I can't express my purpose, only through other means."

   "The search entry just now was just an excuse. I just wanted to keep a man. It was just a cover for my purpose just now. Don't think too much about it."

   Zhang Wei said, his attention returned to the court again.

   Here, Xu Suyun didn't ask any questions, but paced slowly back and forth in front of the jury.

   However, in line with his general aura, it still created a lot of pressure on the jury.

  Many people subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva to relieve their inner tension.

   Suddenly, Xu Suyun pointed at a man with a cold face: "You, you can leave the table!"

   "Me?" The man was slightly taken aback, a little stunned.

   You didn't ask any questions, so you excluded me?

"be opposed to!"

   At this moment, Zhang Wei stood up.

   He would definitely object, because Xu Suyun kicked out a male juror for no reason, which was not what he wanted.

   Zhang Wei looked at Judge Liu, spread his hands and said, "What is the prosecutor doing? He can command others at will without any indiscriminateness?"

   "Hmph, I think this man has no determination, so I just took two steps casually. He is so nervous. If there is an emergency or a deadlock during the trial, it will be difficult for him to maintain fairness and justice!"

   Xu Suyun gave a reasonable explanation.

   "This is a sophistry, without evidence!" But Zhang Wei refused to accept it.

He said, pointing to the jury bench, "If according to what you said, there were jurors No. 13, No. 15 and No. 16 among the people who swallowed just now, are you nervous about them just because they are women? Does behavior open one eye and close one eye?"

   Xu Suyun suddenly laughed when he heard Zhang Wei say this.

   "Well, they can leave too!"

"this…"

   Zhang Wei secretly said a good guy, this woman actually planned to sacrifice the other three women directly in order to exclude her intended jurors.

   "Your Majesty, my request is also very reasonable. If you don't even have a bit of determination, you may not be able to perform the duties of a juror, and it will also affect the fairness and justice of the court!"

   "This... that's fine, please leave the jury who clicked on the name."

   Judge Liu hesitated, and finally nodded.

   "Lawyer Zhang, it's your turn again!"

   Xu Suyun completed his goal and walked back to the prosecution seat again.

   Next, it was Zhang Wei's turn again.

   He got up quickly and walked to the jury.

   "I want to ask everyone, what is the first thing that comes to your mind when you hear the words 'bright moonlight in front of the bed'?"

   This question surprised all the jurors.

   Isn't this a poem, what can this sentence associate with?

   But Zhang Wei's question is not over yet.

   "Please raise your left hand when you think of the moon, and raise your right hand when you think of the bed!"

  Suddenly, the jury was divided into two camps, some people raised their left hands, and some people raised their right hands.

  Zhang Wei glanced around and immediately said, "Judge Liu, the defense requests the removal of jurors No. 17, 18, 21 and 22!"

   Judge Liu, including Xu Suyun, did not object.

   They also didn't quite understand the intention of Zhang Wei's last question.

   The people who were named were all women. After they left, Judge Liu finally announced with a hammer.

   "Very good, so we have a jury. Now the court is temporarily adjourned, and the court will start after lunch!"

  The court begins to dissolve.

   Zhang Wei walked back to the defense table, and Tie Ruyun immediately got up and stepped forward.

   "Your last question..."

   "No way, old iron, you don't understand?"

   Understand a ghost!

  Tie Ruyun is speechless, how do I understand your question?

   That is something that people can understand?

   Zhang Wei immediately leaned in front of Tie Ruyun and smiled: "The bright moonlight in front of the bed, what did you think of?"

   "It's not just ancient poetry, what else could it be?"

   "Old Tie, there are no outsiders here, who are we with whom? Did you think of a girl named Mingyue who was naked on the bed?"

   "Ah, this..."

  Tie Ruyun changed his face immediately, and secretly said a good guy.

   The good ancient poems are all played by you.

  The author of other people's poems, do you know that your thoughts are so dirty?

   "Then you asked before..."

   "Yes, I asked the jury, what is the first thing you think of, is it the moon or the bed, that's the purpose!"

   Zhang Wei chuckled and explained, "I think of the moon, which means you don't want to be crooked, and it means that your thoughts and morals are noble, and you may not be able to hold sand in your eyes."

   "But if you think about the bed, it's probably the ones I'm talking about. Such a person has a flexible bottom line and is exactly the jury I need."

   After finishing the explanation, Zhang Wei patted Tie Ruyun on the shoulder again.

   "Old Tie, you should be thankful that I finally asked this question and eliminated a few difficult jurors, leaving some people who may be in your favor."

   "Hope it..."

  Tie Ruyun pouted, wanting to say that he disdains these bells and whistles, but he is embarrassed.

   After all, Zhang Wei is also thinking for himself.

   "Let's go, let's go to dinner, there is still a tough battle to fight after dinner!"

   Zhang Wei waved his hand, winked directly with the newcomers in the hearing box, and walked out of the courtroom.

  Tie Ruyun hurriedly followed, but when he walked past the hearing booth, he glanced at Shin Zhengyi and the others.

  Shen Zhengyi showed a hint of sarcasm, while Li Qingshou and Wang Jianren, who were beside him, showed coldness.

  Tie Ruyun shook his head in his heart, but still nodded towards Shen Zhengyi.

   After all, everyone is a department leader and a colleague, and the other party used to be his superior, so they are well behaved.

   But if Zhang Wei saw this scene, he would definitely stop Tie Ruyun.

  Some people, even if you respect him, he will not respect you.

   To do this kind of thing is thankless.

  It is a waste of time to do something that is meaningless.

  The hearing booth was vacated one after another.

   "Master Xu, I'm counting on you this time!"

   To say that the person who cares most about this case, apart from both parties, may only be Lao Guo.

   He looked at the space vacated in the courtroom with complicated eyes.

  I, Guo Wufeng, must take revenge, and must see Zhang Wei lose with his own eyes!

   Not for anything else, just for that tone.

   and that humiliating... dad

   It's been a lot of stress these days... Stress at work.
