Crazy, You Call This a Trainee Lawyer

Chapter 85: Three sons-in-law, Fang Wenbin makes a move

   Chapter 85 Three sons-in-law, Fang Wenbin makes a move

   Friday, court day.

  Zhang Wei got up early, made breakfast for the second daughter upstairs, and prepared to go to the early court session.

   went out, and happened to meet Zhang Xinwu who came out for morning exercise.

   "Miss Wu, good morning~"

   Zhang Wei yawned and greeted the other party.

   As the New Year is approaching, Huang Mao, the man with glasses, and others have all returned to their hometowns one after another.

   Therefore, Zhang's martial arts hall is very deserted, and there is no one in it except Zhang Xinwu and Lu Ma.

   Zhang Xinwu's younger brother, Zhang Xinyan, occasionally came to the martial arts hall, but he was taught a lesson by Zhang Xinwu, and it was noisy.

  Because of this, Zhang Wei could see Zhang Xinwu exercising alone in the morning every morning.

   "Zhang Wei, what's wrong with you, didn't you sleep at night?"

   Zhang Xinwu saw Zhang Wei, especially after seeing the two dark circles on the latter's face, her concern was beyond words.

   "Forget it, I watched surveillance video for a day, and scanned documents for a day..."

   Zhang Wei had no choice. He only got the public list on Wednesday. He needed to scan every piece of physical evidence on the list and investigate the background of each witness.

   He even asked Zhao Xiaoxiao to adjust the surveillance video of several streets near the Fugui Jewelry Store a few hours before and after the incident, and stayed up late to watch them all.

   After working overtime continuously, even at the expense of using the golden finger, he looked so unmotivated.

   And today is the court day, and he still needs to rush to the court early in the morning.

   This reminds Zhang Wei of his previous life. When he was not a barrister, he fought hard for a client and broke his leg every day.

   Although these days are hard, once he wins the lawsuit, it will give him an inexplicable sense of satisfaction.

   This feeling has never been experienced since he opened a law firm and gathered a large number of subordinates.

   "Sister Wu, I have to go to court, let's go first, bye bye..."

   Zhang Wei glanced at the time and quickly said goodbye to Zhang Xinwu.

   "Well, you have to take care of yourself, Zhang Wei, be careful not to get tired..."

   Looking at the back of Zhang Wei trotting away, Zhang Xinwu watched for a long time, until the former disappeared at the corner of the east gate, and she reluctantly retracted her gaze.

  …

   Chengbei District Court.

   When Zhang Wei came here, he met an unexpected person.

   Xiao Baihe, Prosecutor of the District Prosecution Headquarters.

  Xiao Lily is wearing orthodox business attire today, with her hands crossed on her chest, she is full of aura.

   Her jet-black, bright hair shone charmingly in the early morning sun, attracting the attention of nearby office workers.

   "Prosecutor Xiao is waiting for me at the door?"

   Zhang Wei almost met Xiao Baihe's line of sight and walked to the other side.

   "Of course, I want to see how you got slapped in the face today!" Xiao Baihe's response became a lot more indifferent.

  You woman, wish I died, right?

   Zhang Wei was thinking about whether to go back, but Xiao Baihe changed his previous sternness, and his words changed.

   "Remind you, that Fang Wenbin is not easy to deal with. He is the same period as our supervisor Zhao Chunming, and he is a very capable person!"

   "Are you worried about me?"

   Zhang Wei was slightly taken aback, this woman would kindly remind herself that this is unscientific?

   "Hmph, stop being selfish, I will care about you scumbag?"

  Xiao Baihe sneered: "I just don't want you to lose in the hands of Chengbei District. The only one who can beat you is Xiao Baihe. Before that, you can show me well!"

   She did not wait for Zhang Wei to answer, and went directly to the district court, apparently planning to go to the hearing box as soon as possible to find a good seat to watch the play.

  Zhang Wei pouted and could only wait at the door of the courthouse.

   Fortunately, the impact of this case is far less than that of Wang Yuqing's case. There were not many media reporters at the door of the Chengbei District Court.

   Even if they came, most of them went straight to the court, and they didn't even think about interviewing Zhang Wei, the client's lawyer.

  Kong Hang came soon. Accompanied by members of the Wushu Association, he greeted Zhang Wei and went to the conference room to prepare.

   After waiting for a while, Li Feifei drove a car and came with Li Qinghe and his party.

   On the car, brothers Wang Dahai and Wang Dayang accompanied Wang Xi from left to right, while Li Feifei and Li Qinghe stepped out of the driver's seat.

   "Xiao Zhang, it's very early!"

   "Auntie you too, we..."

   "Go in and talk!"

  Zhang Wei wanted to say something, but Li Qinghe left a sentence and led people straight to the conference room as if giving orders.

  Zhang Wei pouted again, feeling slightly unhappy in his heart.

   It seems that Li Qinghe still regards him as a newcomer, a rookie lawyer, and his junior.

   "I hope your attitude will not affect the next trial!"

  Zhang Wei muttered, but could only keep up.

   When he entered the conference room, he found that the atmosphere inside was a little depressed.

  Li Qinghe, with a poker face, sat in the main seat and read the documents without saying a word.

  Wang Xi was talking to his father Wang Dahai with his head down, Wang Dayang was standing by the side, and Li Feifei was playing with his mobile phone with his head down, not caring at all about what was going on here.

  Kong Hang sat opposite Wang Xi and wanted to open his mouth to say something several times, but under the pressure of Li Qinghe, he never dared to speak.

   "There's something wrong with this atmosphere. If you don't communicate before the trial, how can you discuss countermeasures?"

   "Also, Auntie, you are actually looking at the list of public exhibits. You didn't do much homework yesterday?"

   Zhang Wei frowned, a little dissatisfied with Li Qinghe's attitude.

   Li Qinghe did not read the list, but she let her subordinates read it and gave her a report.

   This is the advantage of being a leader, having subordinates to send.

  Li Qing Li Qingcao looked at the list before looking up at Kong Hang.

   "I have read the list, let's discuss the countermeasures now!"

  Zhang Wei hurriedly sat down and waited for Li Qinghe's instructions.

  Li Qinghe glanced left and right, and then said: "Currently, the prosecution's evidence, there is no way to directly prove that the robbers are you two, and then it depends on the credibility of the witness testimony!"

   "Do you have any thoughts on the witnesses provided by the prosecution?"

  Wang Xi raised his head and looked at Li Qinghe, but shook his head.

  Kong Hang opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.

   Now he just wants to talk to Wang Xi alone, Li Qinghe obviously doesn't give him a chance.

   "Since there's nothing to say, let's go to court and see what the prosecution will do in the first round!"

  Li Qinghe left the preparation room first and went to the court.

  Kong Hang deliberately walked behind the team, taking the opportunity to get close to Wangxi.

   "Keep your distance from my daughter, you are not my son-in-law!"

   But his small movements were stopped by Wang Xi's father Wang Dahai, and his attitude was very unfriendly.

   Seeing this scene, the ocean on the side opened his mouth, but unfortunately he stopped talking.

   And the word "son-in-law" in the eldest brother's mouth obviously aroused his sadness.

   "Son-in-law?" Zhang Wei muttered, suddenly thinking of Li Qinghua's attitude towards him.

  It's hard to be a son-in-law these days...

  Wang Dahai took Wang Xi and entered the courtroom first.

  The three of Zhang Wei stayed outside.

   "Uncle, you are..." He looked at Wang Dayang with a puzzled expression.

   But the uncle at this time just patted Kong Hang's shoulder: "Young man, I understand you, they don't want to see you, but I understand..."

   Zhang Wei understood instantly, and patted Kong Hang's other shoulder: "Who made the three of us unwelcome son-in-law and prospective son-in-law..."

   "I understand you too!"

   At this moment, Kong Hang, Wang Dayang and Zhang Wei, or the three sons-in-law, actually felt a sense of sympathy.

  Wang Dayang was not seen by the Li family, Zhang Wei was not seen by the mother-in-law of the Xia family, and Kong Hang was not seen by the Wang family.

   Only the three of them can understand the pain in each other's heart.

  The strong friendship in war was born at this time.

it is more than words……

"I see!"

  Kong Hang nodded solemnly, the original annoyance in his heart disappeared completely after seeing Wang Dayang and Zhang Wei again.

  It’s rare in life to meet someone who can understand you. It’s a great blessing!

   The three of them entered the courtroom one after another and walked to their respective seats.

  Wang Dayang is the hearing stand, Kong Hang and Zhang Wei are the dock.

   The prosecution also entered the venue later, Fang Wenbin still brought a new female attendant, and the position was the prosecution seat.

   Zhang Wei saw that Fang Wenbin's mouth was always smiling, and he concluded that the other party must have found clues that could convict him.

   This is the smile of victory!

  Zhang Wei felt a "squeak" in his heart, because he had read all the publicity lists and found no key evidence.

  If it is not evidence, it is the testimony of witnesses!

   Wang Fugui, autumn sweet!

   These two names make Zhang Wei extremely jealous!

   It is possible that both of them will testify against the parties.

   Zhang Wei thinks that the worst plan is that both of them testify against Kong Hang, then he will basically have a hard time.

  Fortunately, even if Zhang Wei was in a panic, he didn't show any emotion on the surface, at least Kong Hang didn't see anything out of the ordinary.

  A good lawyer must have a strong psychological quality, so even if the client panics, you must stabilize the other party with a calm performance.

   Thinking so, Zhang Wei calmly sat down and waited.

   On the hearing table, people came one after another.

  The new lawyers of Aoki Law Firm also arrived, and under the leadership of lawyer Zhuo, they started the great cause of "learning".

Xiao Baihe on the side of    started to feel happy when he saw this scene.

   These newcomers probably haven't seen Zhang Wei's trial, so you can't learn it~

   Soon, it's time for the trial.

  As the jurors and court guards entered, the judge dressed in black robes and walked into the courtroom.

   "I have your honorable Judge Qi to enter!"

  The old judge was in good spirits today, and his pace was much faster than Wednesday.

   After he went to court, he sat down and smiled at the crowd: "Let's hurry up today, I'm still waiting to go home and play with my grandson..."

The jury bench laughed, and Fang Wenbin also laughed, apparently thinking Judge Qi's joke was funny.

  Li Qinghe didn't say a word, Zhang Wei's expression remained calm, and he didn't follow Fang Wenbin to echo the old judge.

   "Okay, let's start..."

Judge Qi said, pointed to the defense bench, and then explained to the jury: "Today's trial is a bit special. Although it is a trial, there are two defendants. And the prosecution has no direct evidence to prove that the two are A criminal subject, they are not legal husband and wife and cannot be tried together, so you need to make separate judgments for the two defendants, Wang Xi and Kong Hang, do you understand?"

  The jurors all nodded subconsciously, obviously some of them understood.

   "Well, the prosecution will make a case statement, the prosecutor, hand it over to you."

   "Okay, Judge Qi!"

  Fang Wenbin took the lead in court and called the first witness.

  For criminal cases, generally the first witness is the operative of the military coordination Chaco.

   This operator, whose surname is Zhao, is in charge of investigating this case and is a team leader of the Investigation Department of Chengbei District.

   "Leader Zhao, please describe to us what you saw at the scene."

   "Okay." Team Leader Zhao nodded and began to state:

"Last Thursday at 10.30pm, we received an urgent notification from the coordination center that there was a robbery on Fugui Road in our district and the in-store siren was activated, so we rushed to the scene. When we arrived at Fugui Jewelry Store at 10:45 At that time, the gangster had already left, and the scene was in a mess. The shopkeeper, Wang Fugui, collapsed to the ground, suffered a heavy blow on his forehead, and his head was bleeding all the time. We immediately rushed him to the hospital for treatment, and started the scene investigation work at the same time... "

"According to the reality of the surveillance video, the robbery took only 11 minutes. During these 11 minutes, the criminals looted most of the valuable jewelry in the jewelry store, opened the internal safe, entered the password and took all the cash inside... …”

  Zhang Wei began to record, and the testimony provided by the general and military coordinator Chaco was recorded word for word in the notebook.

   Li Qinghe on the side just listened quietly, not recording.

   However, the new lawyers, including lawyer Zhuo, in the rear hearing box, just like Zhang Wei, began to write hard.

   Obviously, she asked her subordinates to do things for her.

   In Zhang Wei's record, Team Leader Zhao's statement finally finished, Fang Wenbin nodded with satisfaction.

   "Then Team Leader Zhao, based on your more than 20 years of criminal investigation experience, did the gangster act on a temporary basis, or did he premeditate for a long time?"

"Obviously it was premeditated, because their actions were too fast. Whether it was picking jewelry or entering the password of the safe, the actions were almost done in one go, without mistakes, which is difficult for ordinary robbers to do. I personally It is more inclined to premeditate, it is likely to be a repeat offender, or it may be someone who is very familiar with the layout of the jewelry store.”

   Hearing the speech of Team Leader Zhao, the jury bench cast doubtful eyes on the two defendants.

   An acquaintance commits a crime, who is an acquaintance?

   It was naturally Wang Xi, a clerk, and her boyfriend Kong Hang.

   "Auntie?" Zhang Wei whispered, reminding Li Qinghe.

  Li Qinghe also looked at Zhang Wei without any expression.

  The former is still thinking in his heart, what are you calling me for, haven't you seen the witnesses still stating?

   Zhang Wei was a little speechless in his heart.

  Everyone has said this, and they are about to say the sentence "your client is a prisoner". Why don't you object to the meaning?

   Isn't this typical lead witness speculation?

  Although Team Leader Zhao is an old investigator of the Chengbei District Martial Arts Association, he can act as an expert witness, but why don't you interrupt the rhythm on the other side?

  Li Qinghe was naturally unfamiliar with Zhang Wei's tricks, so she didn't interrupt Team Leader Zhao's speech.

   Witness statements continue.

   "Team Leader Zhao, you mentioned the safe just now, so I would like to ask the colleagues in the on-site forensics department, have you found anything?"

Team Leader Zhao thought for a while, then looked at the jury: "The safe is an eight-digit password system. Wang Fugui set the safe to change the password every week, and the eight-digit number was randomly generated. The robber opened the safe very well. Smooth, I saw through the monitoring records that he only entered the password once and it was successful."

   "Oh, as far as I know, the only person who knows the password, besides Wang Fugui, the shopkeeper who was attacked, is the only one in the dock?"

   "Based on the evidence we currently have, you are right!"

   "Auntie, object!"

   Zhang Wei saw Fang Wenbin guiding the jurors, and quickly reminded in a low voice.

   "Objection, the prosecution's lawyers are asking and answering their own questions!"

  Li Qinghe finally reacted and got up quickly.

   "Sorry, I take back what I just said!" Fang Wenbin smiled at Li Qinghe and quickly apologized.

   But he was sneering in his heart. You Li Qinghe are really not good enough. If your elder brother Li Qingmu came over, he should have interrupted me when I asked the first question.

   "Leader Zhao, what else did the surveillance records tell us?"

   "The information provided by the surveillance records is not much, because the two robbers were wearing black clothes and gloves, and no clues were left at the scene. However, we still found some information about the two by comparing their body shapes."

   "So, the information you have is..."

"The two robbers are a man and a woman. By comparing the height of the door frame when the male robber broke the door, we confirmed that his height is between 174-178. The female robber knows jewelry very well, because after she enters the counter, only Moved those precious jewels, but was indifferent to some worthless jewels, obviously the robbers have a very strong purpose and know the jewelry store very well!"

   This time, the jurors' suspicions about Wang Xi and Kong Hang were almost undisguised.

  Zhang Wei looked at Kong Hang's record. He was 176 tall, which fully met the height requirements for a male robber.

   And Wang Xi is a female clerk in a jewelry store, and she must be very aware of the value of jewelry in her store.

   In other words, the leader of Zhao alone almost proved the possibility of Wang Xi and Kong Hang's crimes.

   "Thank you, Team Leader Zhao, for your answer, I have no more questions!"

   Fang Wenbin showed a confident smile and nodded to Judge Qi, Zhang Wei and Li Qinghe.

   Zhang Wei subconsciously wanted to stand up, but Li Qinghe was faster than him.

   Zhang Wei was helpless. He had just left the **** of the chair and had to fall back again.

   "Witness, you just said that the robber took only 11 minutes to complete the robbery, and also injured the store manager Wang Fugui, right?"

"Yes!"

   "And you said that the gangster is likely to be a repeat offender, right?"

   "Yes!" Zhao group leader nodded and added: "But it may also be an acquaintance."

   "I would like to ask you, is it possible for ordinary people to complete this robbery within 11 minutes, that is, you said that they would loot the precious jewelry in the store, and then slip away immediately, so that your investigation department can't even track them?"

   "If the robbers have arranged an escape route in advance, it is entirely possible!"

   Li Qinghe was not surprised when he heard the answer from the team leader Zhao.

She pointed to her niece and said, "My client, Wang Xi, is just an ordinary clerk, she has no criminal record, and she has been traveling in the South Island for the past week, and only returned to Dongfang City last Wednesday night, what do you think? Can one person complete this professional robbery crime?"

   Team Leader Zhao glanced at Wang Xi in the dock, but he had a hard time making judgments.

   "Maybe it is possible, if you rehearse several times in advance, it should be about the same time..."

   "That is to say, you are not sure if it is her, and this is all based on your own judgment, without direct evidence?"

   "You can say that, but I trust my judgment."

  Li Qinghe nodded with satisfaction when he saw that the jury had doubts about his question.

   "The defense has no further questions about this witness!"

   she said and walked back to her seat.

   On the other hand, Zhang Wei opened his mouth, his face extremely depressed.

  I am also the defense, I still have some questions!

  Auntie, what do you mean, forget me?

   And it's not me who said that your question is really not at all level!
