Crazy, You Call This a Trainee Lawyer

  Chapter 11 Defense Witness, Best Friend Feng Li Appears in Court

  The 10 minute break is over.

   Reopening.

   "Your Honor, we request to add a defense witness!"

   At this hearing, Zhang Hui made a request.

   Geng Hongxia glanced at Zhang Wei, who was very calm and not surprised at all.

   "Since the prosecution has no opinion, then explain the situation of the witnesses?"

   "We request to add Jia Meimei as a witness!"

   The witness presented by Zhang Hui was actually the defendant himself.

   Law students looked at each other.

   What's the situation, the plaintiff himself came to power, and now the defendant has to come to power?

   On the contrary, students from other faculties all held the attitude of watching a play.

   Anyway, they didn't study law, they only cared about how big the melon was today. As one of the parties, Jia Meili came to power, which was obviously more topical.

   However, Jia Meimei was the last witness added, and she was also the last defense witness in the round.

   "The defense called the first witness, Li Yan, to appear in court."

   On the hearing stand, a girl got up and walked to the witness stand.

   "Ask the witness to identify you."

   "I am Jia Meimei and my roommate for four years in college."

   Zhang Hui smiled slightly: "Oh, roommate, then it means that you know Jia Meimei very well."

"be opposed to!"

   But at this moment, Zhang Wei stood up on the plaintiff's bench. He looked at Zhang Hui and said, "The defense lawyer didn't ask any questions!"

   Geng Hongxia glanced at Zhang Hui, "The objection is valid, please ask the defense lawyer to question the witness!"

   "Sorry, Your Honor!"

   Zhang Hui's rhythm was interrupted, so he quickly apologized and gave Zhang Wei a hateful look.

   "I want to ask, you know Jia Meili so well, so what do you think of his academic performance, do you need someone to help him with his homework?"

"be opposed to!"

   Zhang Hui just asked a question when Zhang Wei interrupted her again.

   "The defense is leading witnesses to speculate!"

   Geng Hongxia looked at Zhang Hui in disappointment and sighed: "The objection is valid."

   Zhang Wei smiled and sat down slowly.

   And this scene was also seen by Yang Qingquan and the professors in the hearing booth.

   "Interrupting the defense's rhythm with opposition is a good tactic. But this move is only effective for rookie lawyers like Zhang Hui, and the masters won't be so manipulated by your kid."

   "But then again, your kid is obviously a year younger than Zhang Hui. Where did you learn these tricks?"

   Yang Qingquan suspects that someone in the department must have opened a small kitchen for Zhang Wei. If there is no expert guidance behind this rich trial experience...

   Who will believe it?

   Without mentioning how they made up their minds, the court fell into a moment of silence.

  Zhang Hui took a deep breath and repeatedly warned himself in his heart: Don't be angry, don't be angry, he is just a junior!

After   5 seconds, she recovered.

   looked at Li Yan again, this time Zhang Hui learned well, and asked in a clear and simple tone: "Li Yan, as far as you know, how is Jia Meili's grades?"

   "Jia's grades have been steadily improving."

   "What about Jia's learning attitude?"

  Li Yan recalled for a moment and said, "Very well, at least I have seen many times that she studied until late at night before resting."

   "Her grades improved, do you think it was the result of her own hard work?"

   "I think it's possible. After all, she is such a hardworking person that it is not difficult to improve her grades."

   "So, did Jia Meimei mention Zhang Wei's name when she was in the dormitory with you?"

   "I haven't heard them mention it. I know Zhang Wei is still because of the campus forum."

   "My question is over!" Zhang Hui smiled slightly, then walked back to the dock.

   Zhang Wei got up, it was his turn to do cross-examination.

   "Li Yan, you just said that Jia Meimei's grades have been steadily improving, right?"

"Yes."

   "This is really a high EQ statement." Zhang Wei joked, and then his expression became positive: "I want to know, what if it was replaced by a low EQ statement?"

   "Objection, the prosecution is harassing witnesses!" Zhang Hui immediately stood up and interrupted.

   "Zhang Wei, pay attention to the way you ask questions." Geng Hongxia reminded appropriately.

   "Sorry, it's my fault, I didn't consider it thoroughly. After all, the witness has been roommate with the defendant for four years, so he really needs to save face when he speaks." Zhang Wei smiled apologetically and admitted his mistake.

   Then he reorganized the language and asked:

"Li Yan, let me use an analogy like this. If the test scores are divided into 5 grades, excellent, good, pass, fail and super poor. Now please tell me how Jia Meimei's test scores in the first semester are ?"

   "This..." Li Yan glanced at Jia Meili in the dock and hesitated.

   "Witness, please answer my question head-on!"

  Zhang Wei blocked between the two at the right time, his eyes narrowed slightly: "You have to remember that your current position is the witness stand, and you are still a law student, you should not give perjury, right?"

   Facing Zhang Wei's terrifying gaze, Li Yan thought for a while and replied, "Should I fail?"

   "Hahaha, classmate Li Yan, you really save face for Jia Meili, the assessment is in single digits, and the top ten of the total score are all failing, so who is considered super poor?"

   said, Zhang Wei winked at Luo Xiaobu, who immediately picked up a few pieces of paper in front of him and walked to the court.

   "Your Excellency, in response to the testimony of the witnesses, the prosecution submits Jia Meimei's four-year college transcript as evidence!"

After speaking, Zhang Wei followed the backup file that Luo Xiaobu handed over and questioned Li Yan again: "Excuse me, Li Yan, what is the exam result in the first semester, how is it considered to be a failure, how is it considered to be super poor, I believe you can take the exam. Going to law school shouldn't be stupid, right?"

  Li Yan couldn't see Jia Meili, she could only look at Zhang Wei, lowered her head and said, "That's my memory, her grades in the first semester should be super bad!"

   "What about the second semester?"

   "This... It's been so long, I forgot!"

   "It's okay, I have a transcript here, you can compare it by comparing it!"

  Zhang Wei handed the transcript in his hand to Li Yan and let her see it for herself.

  Li Yan looked at the dazzling red numbers on the transcript and said helplessly: "The second semester was also super bad."

   "What about the first assessment in the second year?"

  Li Yan glanced at Zhang Wei's face before she dared to speak: "Super... super bad."

   "What about the total grade of the first semester of the second year?"

  Li Yan looked at the slightly fluctuating numbers on the report card, and after thinking about it, she replied, "Wander between super poor and failing grades!"

   Zhang Wei immediately regained his energy: "Yo ho, it seems that the grades have improved!"

"be opposed to!"

   Zhang Hui couldn't bear it any longer, and opened her mouth again to object.

   "Prosecution lawyer, please ask the correct question!" Geng Hongxia squinted her face with a look.

"I'm sorry, it's my fault." Zhang Wei said slightly, then looked around, and said loudly: "Seeing this, everyone may wonder, a person with poor academic performance in the first year, how can he be the first in the second year? During the semester, the grades actually started to improve?"

   "According to what the defense witness Li Yan said, Jia Meimei studied hard, right? Then why did she have such poor test scores in the first semester of the first year, but still did not make any progress in the second semester?"

Zhang Wei raised his voice a few decibels: "I'll tell you why, because in the first semester of the second year, Jia Meili found me who was studying in the library, and it was from this time that I paired her with her. A tutoring homework!"

   After he finished speaking, he looked at Li Yan again: "Witness, now look at the results of the second semester of the second year!"

  Li Yan lowered her head subconsciously and glanced at the transcript, "I have improved, most of the subjects are passed, only three failed!"

   "Well, it seems that the effect of tutoring is very good!" Zhang Wei smiled and continued to ask: "What about the first semester of the third year?"

   "Passed all of them, and even improved one subject to good!"

   "Second semester?"

   "All pass, good subjects added."

   "The first semester of the fourth year?"

   "All are good and above, and there is even one excellent."

   "Well, thank you for your cooperation, my question is over"

Zhang Wei took back the transcript and looked at the jury: "In addition, I will add that my tutoring ended in the first semester of this year, which is exactly two years. As for the results of tutoring, I believe everyone knows what it is? "

   After he finished speaking, he walked back to the plaintiff's seat, and even winked at Zhang Hui, making the latter look gloomy.

   In the jury, many girls looked at each other, obviously thinking a little.

   In the hearing box, there were many people whispering and discussing something.

   "Using the other party's witnesses to disprove the information, this kid is incredible!" Yang Qingquan watched Zhang Wei sit back and praised again and again in his heart.

   Zhang Wei's trial strength is simply that of an experienced veteran. He is no longer at the level of an old fritter, and can even be comparable to some senior trial lawyers.

  Although he didn't appear in court for a long time, he also knew that in addition to a wealth of knowledge, a good lawyer should have experience in court trials.

  Otherwise, no matter how rich your theory is, once you are speechless in court, it will be useless.

The current form of    is obviously one-sided towards Zhang Wei.

   Zhang Hui and Jia Meili, who were sitting in the dock, also saw that the situation was not good.

   "No, we must change the current situation quickly, otherwise we may not be able to win a single vote for the 12 seats on the jury!"

  Zhang Hui winked at Feng Li beside him, and got up quickly:

   "The defense called the second witness Feng Li to appear in court!"

  Feng Li hurried onto the witness stand, and the audience was silent.

   A line of sight intertwined on Feng Li, making her a little embarrassed.

   "Feng Li, please tell us about your relationship with my client."

   "Jia Meili and I are roommates and also her best friends!"

   "Since you are a good girlfriend, you should know a lot about Jia Meili, right?"

"Yes!"

   "Can you tell us what kind of person Jia Meili is?"

   Hearing Zhang Hui asking this question, the corners of Zhang Wei's mouth raised slightly.

   As he expected, there is no way to change the matter of apprenticeship, the other party is going to change his defense thinking, and he plans to use Jia Meili's behavior as the defense theme.

   Feng Li answered without hesitation, "Student Jia has always been a very good person."

   Zhang Hui nodded: "Can you give a specific example?"

   "Yes!" Feng Li thought about it and recalled:

"Jia Meimei's family is actually not very good, but she relied on her diligence and hard work to be admitted to the law school. In her first year of school, she also worked hard and earned tuition by her own efforts. You say she is the first One year's assessment results are very poor, in fact she just can't find a balance between working and studying, after all, she is also an ordinary person, how can it be possible to do both?"

   "But Zhang Wei said that my client got such good grades through his tutoring?"

   "How is it possible, it's all thanks to Meimei. She knows that academic performance is very important, so she studied hard every day from the beginning of the second semester until late!"

   Feng Li said, and sneered: "As for Zhang Wei, he only wanted to get close to our family Lili, so I deliberately approached her. I have already seen her thoughts!"

   "Especially when she was tutoring at night, she still touched our Lili. If I hadn't happened to show up many times and stopped her, maybe our Lili would have been given by Zhang Wei..."

   In the end, in addition to anger, her face was full of worry.

   "You fart!" Hearing Feng Li's words, Xia Qianyue in the plaintiff's seat couldn't help it.

   This Feng Li is simply turning black and white, falsely accusing Zhang Wei of impure motives, and doing things to Jia Meili. This is simply a fantasy.

   After having known Zhang Wei for so long, she realized that Zhang Wei was an honest child, how could he possibly do what Feng Li said.

   "What I said is the truth!" Feng Li was not a fuel-efficient lamp either, and immediately responded to Xia Qianyue's provocation with her arms on her hips.

   "Silence!" In the trial seat, Geng Hongxia couldn't bear it any longer and hurriedly knocked on the cone to warn.

  Xia Qianyue was pulled by Zhang Wei, and Feng Li also sat down slowly.

   "It seems that Xia classmates have different opinions?" Zhang Hui pointed out.

Feng Li smiled again, looking at Xia Qianyue with a provocative expression: "Xia Qianyue and Zhang Wei have been together for a long time, her testimony is not credible, they may be united to bully our family Lili. Woolen cloth!"

   "You..." Xia Qianyue was about to have another attack, but was held back by Zhang Wei.

   "Hanhan, calm down, Feng Li can only jump now, I'll make her cry later!" Zhang Wei on the side quickly comforted.

  Xia Qianyue's face was full of anger, she gritted her teeth, her pretty face was about to get angry, but after hearing the words of the people around her, she felt a little better.

   Court.

   "Oh, so the two of them must be in a relationship?" Zhang Hui looked at the jury and made this point deliberately.

  If Zhang Wei and Xia Qianyue have a close relationship, then the previous testimony, even the evidence records of the transfer, cannot be fully accepted.

   "My question is over!" Zhang Hui smiled and returned to her seat.

   Her purpose is complete, let Feng Li suppress Zhang Wei while protecting Jia Meili.

  Although the jury couldn't believe it right away, as long as Feng Li resisted Zhang Wei's next round of attacks, Feng Li would play a little bit more to portray Zhang Wei as a guy with impure goals and evil intentions.

   Although this move is a bit disgraceful, who makes her want to win more.

   "Junior, let me see how you will attack, Feng Li and Jia Meili, I have practiced with them many times, it is impossible for you to find a chance!"

   Zhang Hui looked at Zhang Wei with a confident expression.

   Zhang Wei went to court and looked at Feng Li in front of him.

"you…"

   "Zhang Wei, you are a womanizer!"

   Before he could speak, Feng Li had already stood up with her waist tucked in.

   This scene surprised the jury and the hearing.

   "Your Majesty, I didn't ask any questions. Why did the witness take the initiative to speak?"

   Zhang Wei smiled slightly and looked towards the court.

   Geng Hongxia's face turned straight, and she quickly warned: "Witness, please don't be subjective, all you have to do is answer the question, or I will sentence you to contempt of court!"

   "Oh, I see!" Feng Li sat down cautiously, but her gaze towards Zhang Wei was still hostile.

   She even made up her mind that no matter what Zhang Wei asked, she would eventually make Zhang Wei a lecherous and shameless person.

   "Cough, student Feng Li, then I have to ask a question, don't get excited~"

   Zhang Wei reminded him and asked, "You just said that your Lili studies late every day?"

   "Yes!" Feng Li nodded firmly.

"Okay, I want to ask how you all studied and how you can improve your grades so much. You must have made a special review plan, right? I'm very curious about how Jia Meimei has steadily improved from super poor grades to finally. Actually, all subjects are good, and even one is excellent."

   This question stumped Feng Li.

   How could she know what the study plan was.

   Seeing everyone looking at her, Feng Li hurriedly said: "We didn't make any plans, we just reviewed until late every day, and Lili and I stayed up late to read books!"

   "Oh~ it turned out to be staying up all night to read a book, it's hard work!" Zhang Wei showed an expression of sudden realization, and his expression was exaggerated.

   But then, his expression changed immediately, his face turned straight, and he looked at Feng Li: "The story is well made up, but unfortunately I know you are lying!"

   "Impossible, I'm telling the truth!" Feng Li quickly denied it.

  Zhang Wei smiled slightly and looked at the bench: "Your Excellency, in view of Feng Li's testimony, we will call a rebuttal witness!"

   "Objection!" Zhang Hui immediately stopped, "We didn't receive any notice in advance, and the witness is not even on the witness list!"

   "Zhang Wei, what's your situation?" Geng Hongxia looked at Zhang Wei and waited for an answer.

   "Your Excellency Judge, I called witnesses because there are inconsistencies in Feng Li's testimony. All of this is to prove the fairness of the trial, please allow me!"

   Geng Hongxia thought for a moment, then nodded in agreement: "If it is to prove the accuracy of the witness's testimony, then the court will naturally allow it!"

  Zhang Wei looked at the front of the hearing booth and shouted, "We have summoned the rebuttal witness Han Yu to testify in court!"

  In the hearing box, a girl wearing glasses slowly got up.

  Feng Li had no choice but to step down and let the witness stand out.

   "Han Yu, who is this?"

   Zhang Hui looked at Jia Meili, a little strange.

   "I don't know either, but she looks familiar..."

   Jia Meili looked at Han Yu, but couldn't remember for a while, when she saw each other.

   "Student Han Yu, please tell everyone about your relationship with classmate Jia Meili."

   "Okay, my name is Han Yu, I am studying in the Department of Journalism of Dongda University. My dormitory is Room 405, Building 4 of the Girls' Dormitory Building, and Jia Meimei's dormitory is Room 406. We happen to be neighbors."

   Hearing this explanation, Jia Meili suddenly realized that it was the dormitory next door.

  Zhang Wei nodded and continued to ask: "Just now, Feng Li said that the defendant Jia Meili often stayed up late to study until late. Do you have a different opinion?"

   Hearing this question, Han Yu's face showed endless pain, his fists clenched.

   "They're just farting!"
