   Chapter 115 The little apprentice is stupid? A win-win transaction (please subscribe, rush to the boutique!)

   (Shout out the slogan, ask for a subscription, get the boutique!)

  …

   in court.

  Lin Yumeng's closing statement continues.

   An excellent closing statement can turn the tide and turn the tide.

   can deflect an already deadlocked trial, allowing hesitant jurors to make judgments in their favor.

   And now, Lin Yumeng's closing statement has this effect.

   "Because I'm stupid, so I can't give a very powerful closing statement. I can only explain the situation of the case to everyone here. I hope you don't think I'm stupid."

   Lin Yumeng said, picked up the document given by Zhang Wei, and turned it over from the beginning.

   "Let's first confirm why the witness appeared at the crime scene. Because he received a call from a stranger, he followed the stranger's advice and went to the crime scene without any doubt."

"Who is this stranger, the witness said he doesn't know, I can tell you for sure that this person is not my client, because he didn't call the witness that day, he and the witness didn't know each other at all, and the two did not have any intersection. "

"Then when the armed robbery happened, the witness said he saw tattoos and saw a man threaten him with a knife, but he didn't see what the man looked like because he was so terrified he didn't dare to look at the man s face."

   "Then the question is, why is he able to refer to my client in the first place without even seeing the other party's face?"

Among the    jury, there were indeed some thoughts.

   After Lin Yumeng asked the question, he turned over a page of the document again, and asked himself on the spot:

   "Because the field service caught my client and asked witnesses to identify my client without comparison."

"Although I am stupid, I also know one thing, and that is that people caught by field workers are generally not good people. I believe everyone on the jury also has this idea. You are walking on the street and see a body A person with a tattoo and a very vicious appearance is questioned by the field staff, what is your first reaction?"

   "Is he a bad guy?"

   In the jury, someone nodded unconsciously.

   "Yeah, I think so too!"

Lin Yumeng also nodded and answered immediately: "However, my master told me that this is all your preconceived idea, and it is not desirable. As a rational legal practitioner, you can't just use one-sided subjectivity. Impressions to judge a person!"

"Like the defendant in this case, he was in such a situation at the time, he was held up by two field officers, and then the witness was called to testify by the field officers after the armed robbery. So what was his first reaction? Will you take it for granted after seeing the field service..."

   "Oh, it's this guy, he must have robbed me!"

"Although I am stupid, I feel the same way. If I was robbed at the time, I also hope to catch the suspect sooner. When I see a person who is very similar to the suspect caught in the field, I will definitely think that he is the robber. my people."

   Lin Yumeng said this and looked at the jury.

"But you know, this testimonial is inadmissible, because the Wushu Association did not let my client and other possible suspects line up, and let the witnesses choose the suspects by themselves. They only gave it to one suspect at that time, and the witnesses did not even You need to make a choice, you may think that the witness recognized the suspect, but I can tell you that such testimony is disturbed by the supervisor's consciousness and cannot be used as evidence for the accusation!"

"So the next morning, the Wushu Association will notify the witness and ask him to testify again. As I said before, the witness did not select the person who robbed him among the listed suspects, but was among the suspects. The person who was testified by him last night, that is, my client, was selected. In my opinion, such testimonies are also inadmissible, disturbed, and cannot be used as evidence for accusations!"

  Lin Yumeng emphasized it again in front of the jurors, but her heart was beating fast as she spoke.

  Because she was facing 12 jurors at once, she still couldn't be as calm as Zhang Wei.

   She paused, took a deep breath, calmed herself, and continued turning the page.

   "Next, I asked about the wallet again. I asked the witness if the wallet that was robbed was found?"

   "The witness answered no, the loot was not found."

   "That's weird?"

  Lin Yumeng said, making a thought.

"The same question, did the Wushu Association find a wallet on my client's body, and neither did it, so there was no physical evidence in this case, and the most important stolen goods of the robbery did not appear. In fact, this case only has the testimony of witnesses, and testimony is not allowed. believe it."

   "You may be wondering, in fact, I also asked the master, because I am stupid, I have to ask the master about everything."

"I asked the master, if the wallet is gone, doesn't it mean that my witness is innocent and did not rob others? He replied like this, the Wushu Association may guess that the wallet was lost by the suspect in the middle. But I think it is very strange, If a person stole his wallet, he could not know that he would be caught immediately, why should he throw away his wallet in advance, isn't this a waste of time?

   Hearing this question and answer, the 12 jurors on the jury bench all looked at each other.

   Although this girl looks stupid, there is some truth to what she said.

   Ying Qingli ran away at night, how could he know that he was about to be arrested, if he lost his wallet in a panic while escaping, he might also be found by the people of the Wushu Association.

   And if you lose the "harvest", you may not be able to find your place. Wouldn't that be a waste of time?

"So, I think this case is very clear, the witness's testimony is not credible, there is no evidence, and there is no surveillance record in the underground parking lot, no one can confirm it 100%, it is my client who robbed witness."

   "And do you have any doubts about the presence of the witnesses? In fact, I am also curious. Unfortunately, the prosecutor did not allow me to ask questions, and I did not dare to ask why."

"Then let's focus back on the case. My master told me that there is a basic human rights protection agreement in criminal trials, called "suspected crime never existed". I was very stupid and didn't know what it meant, so I My teacher told me that at the trial stage, if the existing evidence is not enough to prove the defendant's guilt, nor can it prove the defendant's innocence, he should be presumed innocent. "

   "I believe it is suitable for use in this case, because my client is really innocent, please believe me."

   "Although he looks a bit fierce and doesn't look like a good person, this is not the reason for his guilt. Although I'm stupid, I also know that people can't be judged by their appearances, don't you think?"

   "Okay, my closing arguments are over."

   Lin Yumeng said this, bowed to the jury and thanked:

   "Thank you for listening to so much, I know it's stupid, and this is my first closing statement, I'm actually really nervous, thank you for not disliking me, it's been so long~"

  The jurors watched her walk back to the defense table, and many people fell into deep thinking.

The judge    also glanced at Lin Yumeng, with some doubts in his heart.

A closing statement like    is not something a newcomer can make.

   He has also met many newcomers in court for the first time. These people gave closing speeches. Some of them were even speechless, and some of them were so scared that their legs and feet were shaking.

  Lin Yumeng's performance is already very, very good.

   "Since the closing arguments of both parties are over, please follow me into the conference room to discuss the verdict!"

   "Temporary adjournment!"

   With the judge's announcement, the court was temporarily dissolved.

  “Call~~”

  Lin Yumeng let out a long breath and took several deep breaths on the defense table.

   "Xiaomeng, your closing statement was great!"

  Tie Ruyun was the first to step forward, with an excited expression.

  Lin Yumeng's closing statement touched him a lot.

  Although he knew that Zhang Wei had helped her a lot, Lin Yumeng's performance in court had surpassed any newcomer he had seen before.

   Of course, except for the odd number Zhang Wei...

   "Yeah, you're better than me!"

   Li Yueqin's tone was a little sour in her excitement. She didn't know whether she was jealous of Lin Yumeng's performance or jealous of Zhang Wei's help.

   All in all, while she was happy, she also felt that her performance was too different from that of Lin Yumeng.

   "I don't know anything, I just say what my master taught me."

  Lin Yumeng said "humbly" and put all the credit on Zhang Wei.

   As for Zhang Wei, he was still sitting in the hearing box, next to Xiao Baihe, who looked very bad.

   "Do you think you have won again?" Xiao Baihe had a bad face and a sharp tone.

   "Actually, I think we can win-win!"

   Zhang Wei's words made her slightly stunned.

"What's the meaning?"

   "Wait for me here!"

   Zhang Wei said and walked directly to the dock.

  Xiao Baihe saw that Zhang Wei took Lin Yumeng and walked to Ying Qingli, and the three discussed for a while.

   Immediately afterwards, Zhang Wei went to the prosecution seat and chatted with Tan Yingying for a while.

  Although Tan Yingying looked scared, she nodded in response to what Zhang Wei said.

   Finally, Zhang Wei waved at Xiao Baihe, motioning her to go over.

   "What the **** is this guy doing!"

  Xiao Lily was in a bad mood, but she could only get up and walk over.

  5 minutes later, the judge's office.

  The prosecution and defense gathered together, and the presiding judge also left the conference room and came here.

   "What's the situation with your prosecution and defense? The jurors will discuss the result soon!"

   "Your Excellency Judge, we know that the result will come out soon, but please listen to us, we have reached an agreement between the prosecution and the defense!"

   Zhang Wei said, hooking his hand to one side.

  Tan Yingying immediately stepped forward: "Your Majesty, our prosecution is going to withdraw the charges against the defendant Ying Qingli!"

   "Withdraw the charges?"

   Although the judge was surprised, he understood.

  Because of the situation discussed by the jury, the form of the prosecution was not very good. If nothing else, the case should be acquitted.

   "Are you sure about the defense?" So the judge asked the defense again.

  The wind direction of the jury is now in your favor. Even a fool can see that, but you don't want an acquittal?

   Zhang Wei patted Lin Yumeng on the shoulder, who immediately nodded:

   "Your Majesty, our prosecution and defense have reached an agreement, and the defense has agreed!"

   "Okay, then I'll tell the jury later. Since you guys have discussed it, I don't mind!"

Judge    nodded and returned to the conference room, where he was going to inform the jury that the charges were dropped.

   When the group of four came out of the office, Xiao Baihe was the first to be puzzled.

   "Zhang Wei, you should have won. Why should we drop the charges and say we want a win-win situation?"

   "It's very simple, your little valet only joined the felony division. If you lose the first felony case, wouldn't you have to go back to the misdemeanor division again?"

   "What's the difference between dismissal and innocence?"

   "If the case is withdrawn, your face will look better, and I have a gift for you!"

   Zhang Wei said, and waved to Tie Ruyun, Li Yueqin and the defendant Ying Qingli who were waiting in the corridor.

   The three hurried over to meet.

   "Next, after the judge announces that the prosecution has withdrawn the case, we will find a conference room to discuss the next thing." Zhang Wei then proposed.

   The announcement of the dismissal came out quickly and the court was dissolved.

   Zhang Wei and his party immediately entered a conference room, and everyone sat together.

  Zhang Wei called Wu Yong of the serious crime team and turned on the speaker so that the other party could also hear the content of the meeting.

   "Team Wu, can you hear me?"

   "Of course, I heard it clearly, but isn't your kid in court, what are you looking for from me?"

   "Of course it's about your case. The prosecution and I have also agreed that since they have to withdraw a case, they will also send them a new case!"

   Zhang Wei said, looking at Ying Qingli.

   "Ying Qingli, how much do you know about your boss Wang Tianmeng?"

   Hearing this name, Wu Yong on the other end of the phone was suddenly taken aback.

  Tan Yingying and Xiao Baihe are a little curious, who is this Wang Tianmeng?

   "I don't know much about my boss. I'm the driver who drives for him."

   "What he wants is you, the driver. Do you know what bank he usually goes to?"

   "I do know that he usually goes to the "Hundred Flowers Bank" branch in Chengnan District, not far from the old street of his company. "

   "Then do you know who he would go to see on weekdays, or the group of younger brothers under his command, what business are they doing?"

   "I know a little about this, but our boss treats me well, and I turn a blind eye to his business. I..."

   Hearing that Ying Qingli still wanted to show his loyalty, Zhang Wei smiled slightly.

   "Then you know, your boss is going to let you take the blame?"

"What's the meaning?"

   "I understand it very well. Your boss intends to put all this on your head, including business matters, and he is also ready to make you a scapegoat."

   Zhang Wei said, and also took out a document.

"Your boss thinks he's doing something very secretive, but it's not true. He opened an account in the bank in the name of his relative and transferred a sum of money a few days ago. The money was 150,000, and it was transferred to In the account of an ordinary worker, at first I wondered what was wrong with the worker, but then I found out through investigation that the worker had a younger brother who killed someone a few years ago and is still being held in Iron Island Prison.”

   "Guess what, Wang Tianmeng transferred this money to a murderer. What is this for? I can tell you that he and the prisoner are not related and have nothing to do with it before..."

   "Oh, by the way, Prosecutor Tan Yingying, I would like to ask, if Ying Qingli is convicted, where will he be sent?"

After hearing this, Tan Yingying immediately explained: "Originally, ordinary armed robbery would not be imprisoned in Tiesao Prison, but the defendant Ying Qingli has a lot of previous convictions, and the judge will consider these effects. I guess it is probably Tiesao Prison... "

   Hearing Zhang Wei's suspicion, Tan Yingying's explanation and Ying Qingli's face changed wildly.

   He looked at the bank transfer records and couldn't calm down for a long time.

  These clues are already obvious, Ying Qingli is not a fool, he can see Wang Tianmeng's intention at a glance.

   "But this robbery?"

   "Remember when I asked my little apprentice a question to ask the witness if he knew Wang Tianmeng. Although he didn't answer, his expression already told me everything!"

   "Zhang Wei, are you saying that Wang Tianmeng motioned that person to frame the defendant in your case?"

   On the phone, Wu Yong also noticed something different.

   "Yes, it should be!"

"If my expectations are correct, after Wang Tianmeng framed Ying Qingli, he created the illusion that Ying Qingli committed suicide in fear of crime, and then prepared a confession letter, blaming Ying Qingli for all his loan shark crimes. After all, a driver who often acts with him is the perfect scapegoat!"

   Zhang Wei said and looked at Ying Qingli.

"I don't know if you've heard the saying that sooner or later you will have to pay it back. When you choose to introspect and find the former boss Wang Tianmeng, you and he are no longer fellow travelers. He's clearly doing something wrong. Business, but still can keep you by your side, this is a strange thing!"

   "Lawyer, do I have no choice now?"

"Yes, if I guess right, you should have some criminal records about Wang Tianmeng, right? Don't tell me, you have been his driver for so long, and you really don't know anything about his business. You once It’s also a mixed bag, you should know your own situation?”

   "Well, I know, very clearly!"

   Ying Qingli nodded heavily, and then told the two prosecutors and Wu Yong on the other end of the phone about Wang Tianmeng.

  30 minutes later, his statement was over.

   "These testimony should be enough to prosecute him. As for Wang Tianmeng's arrest warrant, please ask the judge to sign it on the grounds of obstructing justice and interfering with witnesses!"

   Zhang Wei said, glanced at the time, "There is still time left today, the judge should still be in the office, you hurry up and act!"

   He urged Tan Yingying and Xiao Baihe to act quickly. Whether the case of Ying Qingli is dismissed or not is not the key.

  Wang Tianmeng is the big one!

"That's right, Prosecutor Xiao Baihe, we've been staring at Wang Tianmeng all the time. Now we need a search warrant and an arrest warrant. Once you have signed the arrest warrant, I'll apply for a search warrant, and then turn his company upside down and return Are you afraid you can't find any clues?"

   On the other end of the phone, Wu Yong also urged.

  Xiao Baihe gestured with her eyes, Tan Yingying acted immediately and hurried to the judge's office.

   "Zhang Wei, you actually helped us this time, but I still want to say thank you. If Wang Tianmeng can be arrested, I owe you a favor!"

  Xiao Baihe doesn't want to admit it, but if Wang Tianmeng is arrested this time, she really has to thank Zhang Wei.

   "What kind of human feelings are not human, who are we with whom!"

   Zhang Wei smiled, but suddenly reached out to Xiao Baihe.

   "Stop talking nonsense, 500 yuan, oh, no, it's 500 yuan for one person, and my little apprentice and I are 1,000 yuan!"

"you……"

  Xiao Baihe's fascination with Zhang Wei that rose up in Xiao Baihe's heart disappeared instantly with these words!
