Crazy, You Call This a Trainee Lawyer

   "I killed them all!"

   Hearing Captain Lao admit this matter, including many people who eat melons in the hearing box, were all surprised.

   Ruthless!

   is a ruthless man!

  Captain Lao either doesn't make a move, and once he makes a move, it doesn't matter if you are an old colleague for several years, that's called a ruthless one and kills them all!

   "What do you say, you take them all..."

   Laura covered her mouth and exclaimed, pretending to be "overly frightened".

   Of course, in the eyes of Zhang Wei, Zhao Chunming and others, this look is simply too fake.

   But she did this, obviously not really surprised, but to add to the atmosphere.

  Laura's surprised expression quickly subsided, and she replied immediately and continued to ask questions.

   "Captain Lao, let me take the liberty to ask, how many years have you known the chief mate, the chief engineer and even the captain's second engineer, the bosun, etc.?"

   "The chief mate and I are old colleagues for 11 years. The chief engineer and the second engineer have known each other for five or six years. It is the first time for the bosun to work together, and we were not on the same boat with them before."

   "So you mean, in order to carry out the so-called plan of the so-called behind-the-scenes mastermind, you killed a good colleague who was with you day and night and ran the boat together for 11 years?"

  Captain Lao sighed, but nodded anyway: "Yes!"

   Hearing the witnesses admit that many people on the jury and the hearing box looked at the witness box with different eyes.

   "Come on, attack the character of the witness!"

   Seeing this scene, Zhang Wei was the first to react.

   "Isn't this a common routine, and the captain himself is a villain. He sold the passengers of the entire ship for money, and finally took the money and ran out of the country. Isn't this a proper villain!"

  Xiao Lily crossed her hands, looking like "I also look down on witnesses".

   "Old Xiao, what you said is right, but this time the witnesses are on our side, so we use this method, and we are the one who suffers!"

   Zhang Wei grunted, sometimes people have to double standard.

   I can attack the opponent's witnesses, but the opponent can't attack our witnesses, that's right.

   This is not called double standard, this is called human nature!

   But in court, this kind of thing is almost impossible, because Laura is not a novice, she knows what she should do.

   "Captain Lao, although you admitted your crime, I want to know what you were thinking when you killed the chief engineer and the others."

"I figured at the time that the chief engineer and the second engineer were the ones who got in the way, so I'd deal with it. As for the first officer, I was originally with me, but I think if there is one less person to share the money, I can get more money. more, just…”

   "Got it, you are greedy enough!"

  Laura looked at the witness, and finally a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

  Because of this answer, the jury will see clearly that the prosecution witness is a complete villain and a perfidious guy.

   For money, he killed a good colleague he had known for 11 years, and killed so many innocent people.

   And once the jury sees it clearly, the credibility of the witness will naturally decrease.

   That was Laura's purpose, but it wasn't the whole purpose.

  Because Captain Lao was the main participant in the attack after all, his testimony still had a lot of weight and could directly affect the client's crime.

  …

   Laura's client started Zhang Tianlong, and she had to deal with these negative effects as much as possible.

   So, cross-examination continues.

"Captain Lao, since you are a greedy person, then I want to know that you should have received a very generous sum of money, which is enough for you to enjoy your old age, and even enough for you to take your family on a yacht, A good day in a villa?"

   "Yes, I did get my revenge."

   "Then in the same way, do I have reason to suspect that the person who made you testify in court also paid you a fee?"

   Laura said, looking at the corner of the hearing booth, where Zhang Wei was.

   "Objection, the defense lawyer's question is imaginary!"

   However, Zhao Chunming's reaction was very fast, and he immediately got up to interrupt.

"Judge Chen, our question is to clarify the credibility of the witness and to prove whether the testimony of the witness is trustworthy. If he can kill a colleague for the money, is it possible to slander our client for the money? !"

  Although Zhang Tianlong is the mastermind, in Laura's mouth, it seems that Zhang Tianlong is an innocent person.

   "In that case..."

   Judge Chen saw that both sides were insisting on their own words, and they both seemed to have some truth, and decided to speak up.

   "Witness, this court asks you directly, did you testify in court this time out of your own heart, or were you threatened or lured?"

"I…"

  Captain Lao glanced at Zhang Wei again, and then said, "I blame myself out of conscience..."

  Laura opened her mouth to ask another question when she saw this.

   "But at the same time, I also received certain threats..."

  This answer made her hold the words in her throat, but she didn't feel any discomfort at all, and there was even a smile on the corner of her mouth.

   Witnesses are threatened!

   This result also surprised everyone.

   "Oh, are you threatened?"

   Lao Chen was also surprised.

   But after thinking about it carefully, he also confirmed that Captain Lao is not the kind of person who can really find out with his conscience.

   You can kill an old colleague of more than ten years. Such a ruthless person will find out in conscience, so don’t make fun of it.

   Those who can find out with their conscience are basically newbies who are not deeply guilty and cannot pass the test of conscience.

   Obviously, Captain Law is not such a person.

  Since it is not, then there is a question mark as to whether his testimony is credible.

   "Cough, in view of the witness's question, this court believes that the witness's testimony is credible and needs to put a question mark!"

   "The jury, it is his basic right for a witness to testify in court, but after consideration, this court has decided to take the threat of the witness into consideration. Please take this into consideration in subsequent rulings!"

   Even the judge said so, and the jury knew it.

   And Captain Lao's testimony was marked as uncertain, which also made Zhang Tianlong look overjoyed.

   "Laura Law Firm has done a good job, we have dealt with the most critical witnesses, and the prosecution will have nothing to do next!"

   Zhang Tianlong was very cool, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

   However, Lin Xiangtian beside him was slightly suspicious.

  How can this witness be so frank, he even dared to speak in court when he was threatened?

  …

   Aren't you afraid that the person who threatens you will kill you?

   But it's good for me, that's enough, what else does it have to do with someone in my forest?

  Lin Xiangtian and Wu Yuanzong also looked at each other with joy in their eyes.

  Look at the prosecution.

   Zhao Chunming's face was stunned at the moment, obviously he didn't expect that Captain Lao actually "betrayed".

   No, he is not a mutiny, he may be really threatened.

   Lao Zhao immediately turned around and glanced at Zhang Wei.

   said, did your kid threaten him?

   "Oh, oh, it's not good!"

   At this moment, Zhang Wei didn't say anything in a strange tone, and his expression was old, as if he didn't notice Zhao Chunming's gaze.

   "Zhang Wei, what are you doing, talking about people!" Xiao Baihe couldn't bear it anymore and pinched Zhang Wei hard.

   hiss—

  Zhang Wei felt the sharp pain in his waist, and immediately took a breath: "Old Xiao, we are all so familiar with it, shouldn't it be..."

   "Who made you feel weird, and also, didn't you say that Captain Lao was a key witness, how could it be..."

   "Old Xiao, man is a perceptual animal. Sometimes man's behavior is beyond his control, let alone others?"

"What do you mean?"

   "I didn't expect Captain Law to be so frank."

   Zhang Wei spread his hands, looking helpless.

   "If that's the case, isn't Director Zhao..."

  Xiao Lily's eyes were full of worry.

   But Zhang Wei gestured to Xia Qianyue who was sitting on the other side of him, because everything was not over yet.

   in court.

   "Judge Chen, thank you for your question. You let everyone know that the prosecution witnesses were threatened. Thank you."

   Lao Chen was speechless, but he could only nod his head.

   After all, he is a judge, and the duty of a judge is to ensure the fairness and impartiality of the court.

   is fair and equitable, so no one can take sides, including those who know they are guilty.

   "We end the cross-examination!" Laura walked back to the defense table and settled down.

   The smiling faces of Zhang Tianlong and others on the side were even more obvious.

   They even thought that if Zhao Chunming had no more powerful witnesses, the estimate would be stable!

  Because they have "heavyweight" witnesses next.

   "Lao Zhao, do you still have any witnesses?"

   "Originally there was, but..."

   Zhao Chunming looked at Lao Chen with a look of helplessness.

   His original witnesses were the father and son of Hou Liangliang and Lao Hou, but you, Lao Chen, know what happened to them.

   "Judge Chen, there are indeed important witnesses on the list of witnesses for the prosecution, namely Hou Liangliang and the former chief prosecutor of the District Prosecution Headquarters. I think they can be summoned to testify in court!"

   Lao Zhao didn't want to summon him, but Laura wanted to, so she stood up and shouted.

"this…"

   Lao Zhao looked embarrassed, because he couldn't guarantee the situation of the two now.

   "Zhao Chunming, are you scared? Why don't you call key witnesses? If you don't call them, we'll have to call them!"

   Seeing that Zhao Chunming was unable to make up his mind, Lin Xiangtian even provoked him on the spot.

   "Lawyer Lin, pay attention to court discipline!" Lao Chen naturally would not be used to it, and immediately warned.

  …

   But then, he also looked at Zhao Chunming: "Old Zhao, do you still have any witnesses?"

   "Our side... We have no witnesses for the time being..."

  Although he didn't want to admit it, Zhao Chunming was under a lot of pressure because the only witness in his hand did not beat the defense to death.

   He fell into a passive state.

   But Lao Chen doesn't care about that.

   "Since the prosecution has no follow-up witnesses to continue the accusation, the opening statement is over, and the defense can begin to call witnesses to disprove it!"

   This sentence is to make Laura, Zhang Tianlong and others overjoyed.

   It was finally their turn to take action, and the prosecution really had no choice this time.

   "Judge Chen, we request that Hou Liangliang from the prosecution witness list be called to testify in court!"

  Laura got up and said the name of the first witness.

  Since your prosecution did not subpoena, our defense will subpoena.

   "Old Zhao, they are going to call your witness now!"

  Old Chen saw this and hurriedly asked.

   Who told you not to summon, now it's their turn.

   "But Hou Liangliang's testimony, for now..." Lao Zhao hesitated.

   "Judge Chen, if Hou Liangliang is currently able to appear in court, why not let him testify in court, after all, he is a participant in the case. And the charges against him have not yet been convicted, he is just a suspect!"

What    Laura said is true.

  Old Chen saw this and could only nod his head, indicating his approval.

   A few minutes later, Hou Liangliang came to the court wearing detention clothes.

   After he sat on the witness stand, he gave Zhang Wei a grim look, then glanced at Zhang Tianlong and the others on the defense stand, but quickly looked away.

   He is also a prosecutor. He knows that when he testifies in court now, his every move will be subject to the jury, so he can't make too obvious moves.

   [To tell the truth, I have been using Yeguo to read and update books recently, switching sources, and reading aloud tones, .yeguoyuedu can be used for both Android and Apple. 】

   "Witness, could you please introduce yourself?"

   "My name is Hou Liangliang, and I'm a prosecutor."

   "Please explain, are you related to the attack on the Oriental Star?"

   "I was on the boat when the attack happened and I was shot."

   "You got a gunshot wound, so it looks like you were the victim of the attack?"

   "Yes, I was a victim on the boat at the time. I was attacked by pirates and imprisoned. At the last moment, I was shot to save people. Fortunately, it didn't affect the key points, otherwise..."

  Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable, but he did not say this sentence.

   "Well then, witness, I would like to ask who the person who shot you is..."

"Yes…"

   Hou Liangliang instinctively looked at Zhang Wei, wanting to insist that it was Zhang Wei's fault, but Zhang Tianlong suddenly glanced at him and shook his head.

The hint    is already obvious, don't bite Zhang Wei to death now, otherwise it will make people feel too forceful.

   "It was the pirates who wounded me."

   "Which pirate is it, do you still have an impression?"

   "Well, they're all unkempt, their faces are as black as soot, I don't recognize them."

   Seeing Hou Liangliang's answer, Laura didn't force it.

   "Then, please, Captain Lao, the witness just now, proved that the mastermind behind this case is Speaker Zhang. What do you want to say about this?"

  …

   Hou Liangliang glanced at Zhang Tianlong, this time Zhang Tianlong shook his head very quickly.

   "No, it's impossible. Speaker Zhang was with me at the time. We were all imprisoned by pirates. There were people holding guys around. We were all hostages!"

   "You mean that you and my client are both hostages and are being held by pirates?"

"Yes, then the pirates moved some of them out, leaving me, Chairman Zhang, and a small group of people in the casino lobby. At that time, I could see clearly that Chairman Zhang and I were both stared at by the pirates! "

   Some of these words are true.

  In the casino lobby, Zhang Wei and Zhang Tianlong's final bet was not over. After Duanmu Heizu came out to disrupt the game, it was true that some unrelated people were transferred out.

   And the rest are naturally all from Zhang Tianlong's side.

   "So, what did you see at that time?"

"I saw Duanmu Heizu holding a gun, and then threatened to kill Speaker Zhang, and the pirates also raised their guns. The scene at that time was very dangerous, but at this moment, there was an infighting between them, and Duanmu Heizu was shot by Zhang Wei. died!"

   Hou Liangliang raised his finger and pointed at Zhang Wei, and finally said what he had always wanted to say.

   "Zhang Wei?!" Laura was obviously surprised.

   "Yes, Zhang Wei, I was in charge of investigating this case at the time, and Zhang Wei was the culprit. We found Zhang Wei's fingerprints on the murder weapon at the scene. The gun killed Duanmu Heizu, so he was the murderer!"

   "This is what you saw with your own eyes, and there is evidence to prove it, isn't it?"

"Yes!"

Hou Liang nodded brightly, but immediately showed a look of regret: "Unfortunately, at the end, Zhang Wei was killed by a member of the special operations team, and his body fell into the water accidentally. We all thought he was dead, so the prosecution against him can only be done. It's over!"

   "I didn't expect that he didn't die, he was hiding abroad, and he even obtained diplomatic immunity and got a talisman for his crimes!"

   When Hou Liangliang said these words, there was a trace of resentment on his face, as if he despised Zhang Wei's behavior.

   "So it is, then this is the truth!"

   Laura breathed a sigh of relief, she was very satisfied with the result.

   Hou Liangliang killed Zhang Wei in one bite, that was enough.

   "Judge Chen, we have no problem with this witness for the time being."

  Laura ended the question and gave Zhao Chunming the opportunity for cross-examination.

   At this moment, Zhao Chunming's face was very ugly, because he didn't want to summon Hou Liangliang at all.

   "Hou Liangliang, are you sure that your testimony just now is true? You used to sit in the same office with me. You should know what you said in court..."

   "Old Zhao, I know very well!"

   Seeing that Zhao Chunming was about to wink at himself, Hou Liangliang sneered immediately.

  Let's not scare anyone, you and I both know each other's weight.

   "Then I ask you, why did you enter the investigation department to destroy the evidence, and why did your father, Laohou, poison the witness Basara?"

   "Isn't this matter still undecided?"

   "But it's also an indisputable fact that your father holds a syringe in his hand, and the inside of the syringe contains poison. It's also a fact that you infiltrated the database of the Investigation Division without permission and destroyed the document!"

   Zhao Chunming stared at Hou Liangliang sternly, trying to put pressure on the person in front of him.

   "If I said that my dad and I were both threatened and forced to do such a thing, would you believe it?"

   "There are still people who can coerce your father and son, who is it?"

   "It's him, Zhang Wei!"

   Hou Liangliang testified against Zhang Wei on the spot: "He threatened us and threatened us to do those things. Everything was done by Zhang Wei's orders!"

   "Zhang Wei instructed you, what did he plan, and what good did he do to kill Basara, Basara was not the one who testified against him!"

  Hou Liangliang sneered: "Because Basara and I disclosed a piece of news, he was also threatened, and Zhang Wei asked him to do this, all because of Zhang Wei!"

   These remarks caused an uproar in the courtroom.

  No one thought that the water in this eucalyptus was so deep that even the interior of the local inspection headquarters was "infiltrated" by Zhang Wei.

   "You mean, Zhang Wei coerced Basara to testify against the Speaker of the Badge, and also coerced you to kill him, just because he knew that Basara might betray?"

"Yes!"

   Zhao Chunming was completely shocked by Hou Liangliang's remarks that turned black and white.

   He really didn't expect that this group of people would be shameless in order to escape their crimes.

   But Zhang Wei was splashed with dirty water, it seems that it is not the first time!

   I can only say that these people are ruthless and shameless enough!

   Crazy, you call this a trainee lawyer
