Legend has it that there is a big devil in law and politics

Chapter 48 The Battle of Two Newcomers in Court (2)

What Luo Lan said surprised Li Zhangde, and he showed a flustered expression, as if he was trying to remember what went wrong.

Judge Zhou sternly said, "Defendant's defender, please explain the situation in detail."

"Presiding judge, I went to the supermarket a few days ago, but I didn't see the wall clock that Li Zhangde mentioned in the supermarket. I asked the owner of the supermarket, and she said that there was indeed a wall clock half a year ago. Later, because the wall clock was broken, she took it away. It's gone, I want to ask the witness Li Zhangde, where did you see the time."

Beads of sweat were evident on Li Zhangde's forehead, and he wiped his forehead, as if he was trying to think hard. At this moment, Du Zhong retorted again: "Presiding judge, the defendant's defender has repeatedly asked questions that have nothing to do with the case. Problem, this is obviously delaying time."

Luo Lan said sharply: "Judge, the defendant Li Zhangde must answer this question. This is a murder case and must be rigorous. We must not let the bad guys go, and we must not wrong the good guys."

Judge Zhou showed a dignified expression, whispered a few words with the juror next to him, and replied, "Witness Li Zhangde, please answer the defendant's defender's question."

Due to the delay for a while, Li Zhangde finally regained his strength and replied: "I remembered, I didn't see the time on that clock, I, I heard what the proprietress said."

Cunning, Li Zhangde deliberately involved the proprietress. The proprietress probably couldn't remember the details that had passed for more than two months.

Luo Lan was confident, and continued calmly, "Alright, even if you asked the proprietress, even if you misremembered the time, now I have another important question, that is, after you found the deceased on the day of the crime, what happened? Didn't go into his room."

"No, I was scared to death, how could I enter the room of the dead."

There was a smile on the corner of Luo Lan's mouth, and he immediately said: "Okay, you have never entered the room of the deceased, by the way, I heard that you have a criminal record before, so it is not convenient for you to tell me what crime you have committed. "

Luo Lan's conversation suddenly turned to Li Zhangde, Du Zhong couldn't listen any longer, and shouted: "Defendant's defender, we are trying Zhang Jinlu's case, and it has nothing to do with my witness's previous criminal record, please Don't confuse the public."

"Prosecutor Du, I absolutely did not mean to confuse the public. The questions I asked are all related to this case. Li Zhangde, please answer my question. What crime have you committed?"

Li Zhangde subconsciously swallowed his saliva, wiped the cold sweat off his forehead again, and replied: "I, I have stolen things before, but I have changed my mind a long time ago. I am now a courier."

Luo Lan knew it was time to unleash his big move, and looked at the presiding judge and said, "President, I have something here that I would like to show you, and it is an important evidence related to this case."

As Luo Lan spoke, he handed the watch and the invoice to the presiding judge. When Li Zhangde saw what Luo Lan brought out, his face turned livid, and he didn't know what he was underestimating.

Judge Zhou looked at the evidence and asked, "Defendant's lawyer, what are these evidences all about?"

"Presiding judge, what you saw was an Omega men's watch. The date of purchase on the invoice happened to be the day of the crime. The place of purchase was a duty-free shop at a Japanese airport."

Hearing Luo Lan's words, Du Zhong quickly looked through the file in hand, and quickly asked: "Lawyer Luo, you mean to say that the deceased Xu Songning bought this watch? But there is no such thing in the police file There is no mention of a watch."

Luo Lan chuckled, looked at Li Zhangde with deep meaning and said, "Of course, because someone took this watch away. I have already asked the girlfriend of the deceased Xu Songning, and she admitted that she did buy a watch as a gift on the day of the incident. To Xu Songning, Li Zhangde, have you seen this watch on the day of the crime?"

With a flustered expression on his face, Li Zhangde stammered: "I, how would I know, I, I didn't see anything."

"Presiding judge, I will now call my first witness to testify in court."

Two minutes later, the tall and straight Manager Ding stood on the witness stand and greeted Li Zhangde. Li Zhangde was so frightened that he was sweating and trembling all over his body.

"Judge, all jurors, my name is Ding Wei, and I am the manager of Ruibao Pawn Xingxinghai branch."

Luo Lan coughed lightly, and asked, "Manager Ding, do you recognize the man next to you?"

Ding Wei didn't even look at it, nodded and said: "Judge, I know this person. Two months ago, he came to my store with a watch to pawn. I paid him a total of [-]."

Li Zhangde said anxiously: "No, nothing, the presiding judge, he, he is talking nonsense, I don't know him at all."

As the saying goes, there is no evidence for what you say, and of course you can't tell it with just your mouth. Luo Lan quickly played the surveillance video in the store and responded: "Judge, this is the picture captured by the surveillance video of the pawnshop. Everyone Please take a closer look."

The screen time is not long, but anyone can tell at a glance that the man who pawned in the screen is the witness Li Zhangde.

Li Zhangde's face turned pale with fright, and he couldn't say a word for a while.

Luo Lan slapped the table with both hands, and said sharply: "Li Zhangde, you keep saying that you have never entered the room of the deceased. Excuse me, what's going on?"

"I, me, me."

After saying three consecutive words, Li Zhangde kept wiping the sweat from his forehead. At this moment, prosecutor Du Zhong finally came to his senses, and rescued Li Zhangde: "Lawyer Luo, I was almost trapped by you. We are now The trial is Zhang Jinlu's case, even if, as you said, Li Zhangde did go into the room to get the watch, then other issues have nothing to do with this case."

As if he had found a savior, Li Zhangde nodded vigorously and said, "Yes, I did go in and found that the person was dead on the spot. I originally planned to call the police directly, but I saw a newly bought watch and Invoices, I became greedy for a while."

Although Li Zhangde readily admitted the issue of stealing, Luo Lan did not intend to let him go, but looked at the presiding judge and said, "Presiding judge, all jurors, the purpose of my providing these evidences is not to prove that Li Zhangde stole I want to let everyone know that Li Zhangde’s integrity is questionable, and his words are not credible.”

Luo Lan cast her eyes on Zhang Jinlu again, and said sharply: "Zhang Jinlu, I'm asking you a question now. When you knocked on the door of Xu Songning's house on the day of the crime, of course, was there anyone else present?"
