Crazy, You Call This a Trainee Lawyer

   Chapter 124 This son, don't worry!

  The scene of the court hearing.

   Cross-examination, still going on.

   Under Zhang Wei's hypothetical question, Captain Liu fell into a brief silence, and then gave an answer that Zhang Wei was not surprised by.

   "Captain Liu, based on your answer, I can assume that when your son tells you something, you tend to believe that what he said is the truth, right?"

"Yes!"

"Okay, then let's make a second assumption. If you know that my client Zhuo Xiaoting is as honest as your son, and there is no evidence to prove that she is lying, you will choose to believe that she has nothing to do with the stolen goods and money. Contact, will you still arrest her?"

"This……"

   Hearing this hypothetical question, Team Leader Liu fell silent.

   He looked at Xiao Baihe, who spread his hands toward him with a slight movement.

  The voice-over of this action: Anyway, the judge's attitude has been made clear, and my objection is just a waste of saliva, you have to answer this question in the end.

   "This, regarding your assumption, lawyer Zhang, I'm confused. In fact, I don't know how I would choose..."

   Hearing Team Leader Liu's answer, Zhang Wei smiled again.

   "Thanks again for your honest answer!"

He walked up to Team Leader Liu, pointed at Zhuo Xiaoting and asked, "Then let's go back to this case, I would like to ask if you have seen any physical evidence at the scene, or witness testimony, or any other circumstantial evidence that can prove that Zhuo Xiaoting Is Xiaoting lying?"

   "I think, no!" Team Leader Liu subconsciously shook his head.

   "That is to say, if your son is in the same situation and the same evidence in this case, we may not need to participate in this trial, and there will be no case about my client Zhuo Xiaoting, right?"

   Team Leader Liu fell into silence again, and nodded after a long time, "Maybe, really not..."

   His tone was also full of disbelief.

   "Thank you for your answer, Team Leader Liu, this is the end of my question!"

  Zhang Wei saw that his goal was achieved and walked back to the defense seat.

   And this reaction from Team Leader Liu also caught everyone's attention.

  The jury was lost in thought, and there was a slight commotion in the hearing box.

   Even Judge Wang in the bench looked at Zhang Wei with a little surprise.

   This kid's question, Captain Liu, who was able to force him to be so unconfident, is really good at it!

   "Sister Lily, what should we do, we seem to be at a disadvantage!"

  Tan Yingying did not dare to look at Zhang Wei, but she also saw the change of wind direction.

   As a prosecutor, she clearly captured both the judge's face and the jurors' guesses.

   "You don't need to say it, I know it too!"

  Xiao Baihe interrupted Tan Yingying's panic with a cold voice, got up and said, "The prosecution wants to ask additional questions!"

   She also went to the witness stand again, regardless of the judge.

   "The defense lawyer's question just now is just a series of good hypothetical questions, not the reality."

   "Leader Liu, do you know that Zhuo Xiaoting, our client in this case, is as honest as your son?"

   Team Leader Liu didn't think for too long and replied, "No, I don't know!"

   "Do you believe she is innocent when she denies that she has nothing to do with the stolen money?"

   "I don't believe it either!"

Xiao Baihe nodded, then looked towards the jury, his tone gradually increased: "Based on the situation at the time, and your 30 years of experience in coordinating Chaco services in the military, can you make any comments on Zhuo Xiaoting's trustworthiness? Judgment?"

   "I thought she was lying!"

Team Leader Liu responded immediately, and then added: "Because those stolen money and stolen goods are definitely not kept in your home for a day or two, if you know that there are these harmful things in your home, why don't you report it to our Wushu Association. If you say you don't know, I have every reason to think you're lying!"

   As soon as these words came out, the jury also nodded.

   Liu's speech is indeed not without reason.

   "Thank you for answering again!"

  Xiao Lily smiled, this time she had the upper hand.

   When she was about to return to the prosecution seat, Zhang Wei stood up again.

   "The defense also asked for additional questions!"

   Zhang Wei went to the witness stand regardless of the judge's reaction.

   "Team Liu, since you have said so, then combined with your previous answer, under the same conditions, you will unconditionally trust your son!"

   "No no no, lawyer Zhang, you know, maybe I made a mistake just now!"

This time, Team Leader Liu's expression became serious, he looked at Zhang Wei, and replied in a slightly low voice: "If I see my son holding a dangerous thing, a murder weapon, and a knife in his hand, Even with a gun!"

   "Of course, I would naturally prefer to trust my son, but if the stolen goods, stolen money, or even the murder weapon are really in his hands, I express my suspicion that he did something wrong!"

   Hearing this righteous remark, Zhang Wei's mouth twitched subconsciously.

   "Is your son an honest man?"

   "Yes, but I still say that, if the murder weapon or stolen goods are in his hands, then I will not believe him without thinking, I must speak according to the facts!"

   Zhang Wei squinted and asked, "Then what would you do?"

   "If in the end my son did something wrong and it was a criminal case..."

   "This son, don't do it!"

   hiss~

   Not only Zhang Wei felt troubled, but even some of the jurors took a deep breath.

   This statement is really too "filial to the father and son".

   Judge Wang also turned his body sideways, his mouth slightly open, and looked at Team Leader Liu in surprise.

  Lao Liu, are you suitable for this?

   Maybe your son is watching the text broadcast of this court trial. If he knows your answer, how can you be a father?

   "As expected of Team Leader Liu, your answer deeply shocked me!"

  Zhang Wei also had to admit that Team Leader Liu really was amazing, and this answer really refreshed his understanding.

   "But I think, if you can't even believe your own son, wouldn't my client be at a loss?"

   Team Leader Liu did not answer this question, and Judge Wang did not remind him that he had to answer.

   Zhang Wei glanced at Team Leader Liu and finally let out a breath.

   "My additional questions are also over. Thank you witnesses for their answers!"

   He walked back to the defense table and took his seat.

   For a while, the atmosphere at the scene became heavy.

   Judge Wang opened his mouth several times, but did not say a word.

  The jury bench was also silent, the discussion in the hearing bench also stopped, and everyone in the audience held their breath.

   They are all waiting, waiting for the prosecution's second witness, because it is still the prosecution's case stage.

   "The defense calls the second witness to appear in court!"

  As Xiao Baihe announced, the second witness stepped onto the witness stand.

   This is a woman, about forty years old, wearing a black suit, with her arms crossed, a little arrogant.

   And the way she looked at the defense seat was vaguely unkind.

   "Mrs. Fan, hello, you called our office in person and said you wanted to testify in court!"

   "Yes!" The woman's reply was concise and fast.

   "Then please tell me why you want to be involved in this case!"

   "Huh, those pornographic books for sale have had a huge impact on my son's mental health, and of course I'm going to be involved in this case!"

   The woman's answer did not exceed Zhang Wei's expectations.

   This woman came up with anger at first glance. Considering the nature of this case, it should be someone in the family who was influenced by obscene materials.

   And the average adult has self-control, and naturally there will not be too many problems, so those who can be affected...

   "My son is in high school, and his academic performance is among the best. He is the top student in the key class, and he will be 100% admitted to the famous school in the future!"

"As a result, his academic performance plummeted after the third year of high school. I went to the school to ask, but the teachers didn't know the reason. In the end, I had no choice. After talking with him once, I found out that he has been browsing those unhealthy information. This really **** me off!"

   "You guys say that a good student, originally good at both academics and academics, has a great future, but because of the appearance of those unhealthy things, the great future will be ruined!"

   "Those who kill thousands of knives, it's best if they all die!"

   "Mrs. Fan, please don't get excited!"

   Seeing that the woman was getting more and more excited, and even a little "over the line", Xiao Baihe hurriedly interrupted.

   However, on the jury, there were many seniors who agreed with the woman's remarks.

   Obviously, they are also parents.

   This is also the result of Zhang Wei's deliberate selection, leaving people who value the family, and will inevitably be influenced by the parent on the witness stand.

  The woman then began to talk about her son's influence by bad information under Xiao Baihe's question, and at the end her words gradually became more intense.

"I'm just such a son. Seeing that he will almost destroy those things, I naturally can't bear it, so I'm standing here today to tell everyone that those gang of people have no humanity. They came to harm us for money. Our children, our next generation, we must not easily bypass them, we will send them all into prison cells, and let them all go to prison for a lifetime!"

   "Thank you Mrs. Fan for your answer, my question is over."

  Xiao Baihe looked at the woman, sighed in her heart, and could only walk back to the prosecution seat.

   "Sister Lily, this witness's testimony is very effective!" Tan Yingying, who was on the side, immediately came up and said.

   "I know, but this witness is too extreme. In fact, I didn't want her to testify in court at first!"

  Xiao Baihe looked at the woman, quite helpless.

   She knew this witness because she was the one who received the call after the other party called the headquarters office of the District Prosecutor for the first time.

   But she did not choose the other party as a witness, because the woman's words were too extreme. She intended to choose another parent with a relatively mild personality.

  But in the end, Zhao Chunming intervened and chose this woman.

   And he told Xiao Baihe that the trial needs a strong witness and testimony that can bring shock.

   This witness clearly satisfies the condition.

   "A strong witness, the testimony is indeed strong, but whether it is strong or not is another matter..."

   Watching Zhang Wei walk towards the witness stand, Xiao Baihe always had a feeling in his heart that this witness might have some bad influence.

   "Hello, ma'am!"

   "It's good, I have nothing to say to you!" The woman's answer was very extreme and arrogant.

   "Judge Wang, may I list this witness as a "hostile witness"? "

   "Lawyer Zhang, the hostile witness asked to testify against the calling party. You are not the calling party. How is that possible?"

Judge    Wang retorted, but warned the woman: "Witness, please answer the question well, otherwise I will betray you and contempt the court, and you will go to jail!"

   This warning is obviously more beneficial than Zhang Wei's words. The woman's arms are no longer crossed, and her posture is slightly lowered.

   Zhang Wei looked at the woman from top to bottom, and then asked with a smile:

   "Mrs. Fan, are you divorced?"

"how do you know?"

   The woman was a little surprised that her background information had been investigated by the other party.

   "I saw ring marks on your fingers, but the marks are a little lighter, indicating that you have been divorced for a few years, right?"

"so what?"

   "Then the second question, what kind of work do you do?"

   Zhang Wei smiled slightly, and then asked the second question.

   "I am the management of a medium-sized foreign-funded enterprise, do you know "CHO"? "

   "If I remember correctly, it's short for "Chief Human Resources Officer," right? "

   "Not bad!" Seeing Zhang Wei explain, the woman raised her head again, proudly.

   But after hearing this post, although Zhang Wei was calm on the surface, his heart began to be ecstatic.

  My dear, you woman is a great gift from the prosecution!

   "So, you are in charge of the human resources system in the company and one of the top decision-makers?"

   "Well, you can say that!"

   Seeing that Zhang Wei's attitude suddenly changed and became a little "humble", the woman was naturally happy to answer.

   "Then the entire company, responsible for employee promotion, manpower allocation, and job transfer, is your decision?"

"good!"

   "You have the final say in the promotion and demotion of the employees below?"

   "That's not right!"

   "If an employee wants a promotion and salary increase, will you agree?"

   "Of course not, we will do a strict review, if the other party does not have this ability, what about promotion and salary increase!"

   "Strict review, so you must be very busy with work?"

   "Of course I'm busy. There are hundreds of people in our company, as well as branch offices. Can you not be busy with so many people?"

   "Oh, that's right, worthy of being a leader!"

   Zhang Wei smiled slightly, then looked towards the jury.

   I saw a lot of people, looking at the woman's face, all of them were quite unhappy.

  Without him, they remembered the scenes of being led by their own company, especially the experience of wanting a salary increase, wanting a promotion and a salary increase, but was rejected again and again.

   It is because there are leaders like women that they can't get promotions and raises, and they can't sit in the office.

   These days, there are many part-time workers.

   And among the workers who can be grateful to their bosses and leaders, after all, there are very few.

   There is no capitalist who does not exploit his subordinates, and a woman is the capitalist's hand.

   Seeing that many members of the jury were full of hostility towards women, Zhang Wei knew that this was not enough.

   "Excuse me to the witness, since you are very busy, I would like to ask, how many days a year do you accompany your children?"

"This……"

   This question seemed to hit the woman's sore foot, and she fell into silence.

   "I think it should be a few days later. After all, companies focus on efficiency. If you can achieve the position of CHO, I don't think your company will let a family-oriented woman sit in this position, right?"

   "Objection!" Xiao Baihe finally couldn't bear it any longer and objected.

   "The work of the witness has nothing to do with this case!"

"Your Excellency, I think the witness's work has a huge connection with this case. It is precisely because the witness was busy with work, neglected family education, and neglected the child that her son was affected by bad information. Although the child did not do anything wrong. What, but if parents were willing to spend more time with their children, then the tragedy would not have happened."

   Hearing Zhang Wei's explanation, Judge Wang nodded.

   "The objection is invalid, and the defense attorney can continue to ask questions."

   "Witness, you are in the company for a few days a day, and you spend a few days at home with your children. I just want to ask this question, please answer me. Thank you."

   This time, Zhang Wei's tone was relatively calm, not aggressive.

   "I..." The woman couldn't answer this question.

   Because she spends only a few days with her children in a year.

   "I have hired a nanny. I spend a lot of money on my child's living expenses every month. With various expenses, I have to spend more than 10,000 yuan for my child a month!"

   "But you didn't answer my question. How many days do you spend with your child each year? Is it difficult to answer?"

   Zhang Wei's tone was still calm, but the problem remained the same.

   "About... twenty days..."

   "Twenty days?!"

   Hearing this answer, Zhang Wei was surprised, his expression exaggerated.

   He walked up to the woman and asked in surprise, "There are 365 days in a year, but you don't even have one tenth of the days you spend with your child?"

   "But I have to work, otherwise who will earn the money to support the family?"

   "So instead of looking for problems in yourself, you blame others?"

  The woman's argument was resolved by Zhang Wei with a sneer.

   "I think if you spend a little more time with your child, this tragedy will not happen, or you should be able to spot the problem earlier as long as you pay more attention to your child and observe him more?"

"but I……"

   "Ma'am, you won't answer because I know you can't answer it!"

Zhang Wei looked at the woman and preached in the tone of an elder: "Sometimes, parents are the best teachers for children. They long for their parents' company, but you choose to ignore your children's feelings and refuse to accompany them for the sake of your career. , do you know how painful your son's heart is?"

   "I believe that your son did not intentionally come into contact with those bad information, but because he lacked the guidance of your mother, so I think you are more responsible for your son's situation."

   Zhang Wei's words were plain, but they made the woman bow her head.

However, Zhang Wei looked at the jury and concluded: "Sometimes bad people are wrong, but it is also the responsibility of parents to educate children to identify bad people and unhealthy information. You say that you are busy with your career and work, but you ignore the most precious things. thing!"

"I believe that the parents here should reflect on why every time the child has a problem, you are all making excuses, all kinds of blame, you blame the show on TV for fighting and killing, blaming the teacher for teaching No, blame the school for the wrong atmosphere, but have you ever thought that the biggest problem is the one who ignores the child for the so-called career?"

   Zhang Wei's words made many people bow their heads and reflect slightly on their expressions.

   Obviously these words have touched the hearts of many people.

   As parents, they should indeed guide their children to the right path, instead of blindly throwing their children to teachers and schools.

   at the prosecution table.

  Xiao Baihe looked around in a daze, always feeling that something was wrong.

  Aren't we at the court hearing, why do I feel like I'm listening to the education department's children's lecture?
