Chapter 85: Fabrication of Charges

Seeing this, the judge sitting on the trial seat hurriedly picked up the gavel, knocked it twice on the table and said: "Quiet, quiet, this is the courtroom, no noise is allowed!"

Perhaps it was his majesty that made everyone feel a little afraid, and the scene gradually quieted down.

At this time, I saw a slender man standing up and said, "Your Excellency, according to the laws of China, if the lawyer is not present, the case cannot be tried in court. Since Xia Hua's lawyer was not present, I would like to recommend myself, my name is Pan Gang, and I am also a lawyer, I wonder if I can appear in court as Xia Hua's defender?"

The judge was stunned, with a hesitant look in his eyes, changing the lawyer in court, although it is legally allowed, but it is the first case in Xinghui Town, he looked at Xia Hua hesitantly and said, "I wonder if the suspect accepts this proposal?"

Xia Hua smiled awe-inspiringly and said: "The pure ones are self-purifying, and the turbid ones are self-turbid, I think I am honest and upright, so what's the difference between who defends me?"

"Then you agree to change the lawyer!"

Nodding, Xia Hua said, "I agree!"

Seeing this, Gao Dongyang's heart blossomed. He didn't expect Xia Hua to be so confident and dare to change lawyers in court. It seems that he has made the right move. The lawyer had been hired at great expense in order to play an unexpected role at this critical moment.

Sure enough, after the trial began, Pan Gang's tone reversed instantly, and all the questions and analyses pointed at Xia Hua, giving people the feeling that he was not Xia Hua's lawyer, but the plaintiff's lawyer.

However, no matter what method he used, Xia Hua did not admit to all charges.

Just when the two sides were at a stalemate, Mu Hao, Xia Yuyao, Feng Yong and Tang Zhengwen quietly entered the venue.

Looking at the haggard figure on the stage, Xia Yuyao's eyes were instantly moist, and two lines of warmth slid down her cheeks, but she still couldn't hold back and didn't cry.

Seeing this, Mu Hao comforted her hand and said, "Don't cry, things are not very bad yet, now that we are here, Uncle Xia will not have an accident." ”

Shaking off his hand, Xia Yuyao whispered coquettishly: "Since you're here, why don't you let Brother Feng go up, don't we have evidence in our hands to prove my father's innocence?"

Smiling disappreciatively, Mu Hao stretched out his hand and pointed straight ahead: "Look at it, who is sitting there, and then look at who are the people in front of and behind him?"

Xia Yuyao was stunned, raised his eyes, and exclaimed, "Isn't that Gao Dongyang and his group of dogs? ”

"Gao Dongyang had already started preparations a few days ago, in order to finalize the case of the director of Xia Huaxia, he not only summoned his subordinates, but also asked me to find the lawyer Pan Gangpan on the stage, and I handed him 20,000 yuan. Let him take Lawyer Feng's place when he is unable to appear in court. Tang Zhengwen lowered his head and muttered.

"You ......" Xia Yuyao's eyes widened, and her face instantly turned red, she didn't expect Gao Dongyang and others to spend so much money in order to bring down their father.

Mu Hao patted her on the back and said, "Don't worry, since Uncle Tang has repented, let's not blame him, as long as he can explain the matter clearly on stage for a while, this matter will be over." ”

Tang Zhengwen, who was still up and down in his heart, finally had some confidence in his heart when he heard this, and he secretly swore that if he really had the opportunity to testify, he would definitely know everything and say everything.

While speaking, someone had already sat on the witness stand, only to hear Pan Gang ask: "May I ask the witness, did you see with your own eyes that Xia Hua gave the order to add lime to the chemical fertilizer?"

"Yes, I was on duty that day, and Xia Hua personally went to the site to let us mix lime into the finished product of chemical fertilizer, and asked us not to show it in any records. And threatens us that if anyone tells us about it, he will fire him!"

"May I ask the suspect Xia Hua, is what he said true?"

"He's talking nonsense" Xia Hua angrily said: "Liu Laoer, you don't learn and don't know how to do your work on weekdays, you don't do your job well, and you gather people to gamble, I have criticized you a few times for this, and that's for your good, is it necessary for you to fall into the well like this?"

The judge knocked on the table and said, "Xia Hua, if you ask anything, you will answer, don't talk about things that have nothing to do with this case." ”

The prosecution lawyer looked confused at this time, he looked at all this happening in front of him in amazement, it was difficult to understand Pan Gang's approach, all the questions he asked should have been raised by himself. And at this moment, he asked him. He has never encountered this kind of thing and snatching lines.

"Witness, I wonder how you can prove that what you say is completely true. Seeing that Xia Hua was very tough, the judge couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart.

"It's easy!" Liu Lao Er pointed back and said, "Those people are all from one of our positions, and they can all testify." ”

Hearing this, many people in the group of people who were accused stood up and shouted: "We can testify that Xia Hua made us do this!"

"I can testify. ”

"I can testify too!"

"And my ......"

These people are not stupid, Gao Dongyang said that as long as they can shout these words at a critical time, he will give everyone a hundred yuan in cash. That's a month's salary, don't be in vain!

Xia Hua looked at these people, his face turned pale, he didn't expect that he had worked hard for the development of the chemical plant for so many years, but in exchange for the slander of these people, his heart was bleeding, and his eyes were full of endless hatred.

As the trial progressed, one after another the assigned witnesses came to the witness stand with their testimonies. Xia Hua was gradually accused of embezzlement, bribery, and even harassment of women by using his power.

Xia Yuyao became more and more angry the more she looked at it, her body couldn't help but tremble, in order not to let her lose her temper, Mu Hao persuaded her to leave several times, but she refused, just stood in the corner, looking coldly at everything that happened in front of her.

It lasted an hour and a half, and the entire case was basically heard. The judge stood up from the trial seat and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, according to the laws of China, we have ascertained the facts of the case, and now I pronounce the verdict, the criminal Xia Hua, is convicted of fraud, bribery, embezzlement, and ,...... crimes."

However, before his words fell, Feng Yong suddenly spoke: "Your Excellency, I am the defense lawyer appointed by Xia Hua's family, and I think that this matter cannot be concluded at this time!"

As soon as his words came out, it was tantamount to a thunderclap that resounded throughout the audience!
