Chapter 599: Waiting
Zhou Niannian unhurriedly issued two consultations for Xiang Wei to find a doctor, "According to medical common sense, he was hit on the head and caused bleeding, and the first thing to be affected should be the brain, and bleeding in the brain may lead to heartbeat." ”
She took the report of the second autopsy and handed it to the judge, "and the report of the second autopsy explained in detail that Zhang Dong did not have a cerebral hemorrhage, so it can be inferred that the probability of a heartbeat falling out caused by a blow to the brain is almost negligible." ”
The autopsy report had been submitted to the court before, and the judge had also read it, but the report submitted by Zhou Niannian specially marked the part she had just said.
After reading it, the presiding judge asked questions again: "Your report also mentioned that the deceased tried to ask Zhang Peilan for help before his death, but Zhang Peilan did not help him, if Zhang Peilan helped him in time, would he have escaped because of this?"
"Moreover, from the perspective of public order and good customs, Zhang Peilan has the obligation to save the patient, and if she did not save the deceased in time, she did not save the deceased, should she bear part of the responsibility for the death of the deceased?"
Zhou Niannian replied unhurriedly: "Your Excellency, please allow me to correct your wording just now, the deceased should have had the idea of asking Zhang Peilan for help, or his behavior, but he did not succeed. ”
She slowly walked to the middle of the courtroom and took out two comparative photos taken by Xiang Jingshan at the scene of the crime, one was the footprints left by Zhang Dong before he died, and the other was a photo of Xiang Dong imitating Zhang Dong's footprints.
"Our lawyer and Zhang Dong are about the same height and weight, and he did a simulation experiment according to Zhang Dong's situation at that time, and the experiment proved that Zhang Dong was ready to plead with Zhang Peilan, but he did not touch Zhang Peilan's door. ”
And before he sneaked into Zhang Peilan's room, tried to force Zhang Peilan, and beat their child Xiaoxin, Zhang Peilan was frightened, the child kept crying, and she hugged the child and comforted the child. ”
She slowly looked at the judges and members of the jury, "Everyone, imagine that in this situation, a person full of horror, and under the cover of the crying of a child, how could she hear the movement outside, not to mention that Zhang Dong has not knocked on the door yet." ”
"Just now the judge talked about public order and good customs, yes, Zhang Peilan, as a social citizen, she does have the obligation to help anyone in need, but the premise of all this is that she has to find someone who needs her help. ”
After Zhou Niannian's words were finished, the court collectively fell silent.
The evidence that should be submitted has been submitted, and Zhou Niannian has also talked about the defense plan prepared in advance, and is waiting for the judge to announce the verdict.
The three judges bowed their heads and deliberated for a moment, then decided to temporarily suspend the trial and announce the verdict another day.
Zhou Niannian was not too disappointed, but as long as the verdict was not pronounced on the spot, the possibility of choosing to never suspect the crime was very high.
If the judges choose to suspect the guilt, they will be sentenced on the spot today.
Zhang Peilan stood up from her seat, her shoulders trembled slightly, and the tears that had been stored in her eyes for a long time finally slipped down.
The fear and exhaustion that had accumulated for days were completely released at this moment, and she also knew that not announcing the verdict in court meant that she still had a chance.
She bowed deeply towards Zhou Niannian and didn't get up for a long time.
Zhou Niannian walked over, patted her shoulder gently, and said softly: "Hold on a little longer, there will be good results." ”
Zhang Peilan nodded heavily, and her shoulders shook even more.
Zhou Niannian smiled and slowly walked out of the courtroom.
Xiang Wei and Xiang Jingshan followed.
"Lawyer Xiao Zhou, you are really amazing, you use sharp and accurate words, speak fluently, I.... I've admired you a little. Xiang Jingshan looked at Zhou Niannian with adoring eyes.
Xiang Wei patted his head, "Lawyer Xiao Zhou is a person with a lot of practical experience, what is that word called, yes, I have read countless people, haha." ”
"Third uncle, what kind of adjective are you, wrong, wrong. Shouting to Jingshan for collapse.
The corners of Zhou Niannian's mouth twitched, and there were countless readers..... What kind of tiger and wolf words are these?
"Lawyer Xiao Zhou, my third uncle didn't mean it, don't care. Xiang Jingshan looked at Zhou Niannian nervously.
Xiang Wei pulled his beard in embarrassment, "Haha, did I use it wrong again?"
Zhou Niannian knew that he was not unintentional, so he naturally didn't care, "Okay, let's go back to the consulting office." ”
The trainee lawyers who came to intern together came out and saw the three of them talking and laughing in front, and couldn't help but show envy in their eyes.
"The relationship between Xiang's uncle and nephew and lawyer Xiao Zhou is really good. ”
"Yes, Lawyer Xiao Zhou taught them hand in hand. ”
"I really want to learn from lawyer Xiao Zhou. ”
Xiang's uncle and nephew didn't know that their uncle and nephew had become the envy of many trainee lawyers, and although they felt that the eyes behind them were a little burning, the two did not look back.
When she returned to the consulting office, Wu Xuan hurried back, and she also went to observe today's trial, and after the end, as the editor-in-chief of the Kyoto Legal Moment, interviewed the relevant person in charge of the court.
"How is it?" Zhou Niannian raised his eyebrows.
Wu Xuan sat down, with a touch of excitement on her face, "I think there is a great opportunity." ”
Zhou Niannian's eyes lit up, "Let's talk about it." ”
Wu Xuan took off the camera she was carrying, "Zhang Peilan's case has attracted too much attention now, and with the previous report on Zhang Peilan's experience, now some people who have read the newspaper have written letters to the newspaper office, agreeing with the presumption of Zhang Peilan's innocence." ”
In other words, the public opinion and voices of the masses are now very high.
Zhou Niannian knocked on the table and groaned, "I don't think the judge of Zezhou County may be able to do this, I'm afraid I have to ask for instructions from above, so it may take a while." ”
Wu Xuan nodded, "So this case may have to drag on for a while." ”
Zhou Niannian predicted that she would have to wait for at least a month, but she didn't expect things to develop faster than she imagined.
The following week, Sekihei and many other elders of Kyoto's judicial circles came to Sawaju.
Zhou Niannian couldn't help but stand up in a gaffe when he saw Guan Ping standing in front of him, "Teacher, why are you here? Why didn't you tell me in advance?"
Guan Ping smiled and asked her to sit down, "Tell you that you won't be surprised?"
Zhou Niannian was speechless, "You said that you are so old, what are you tossing and turning, what should you do if you turn around and toss back and get sick?"
Although she complained, she still hurriedly brewed a cup of hot tea and gave it to Guan Ping.
Gao Zhiyong looked at Zhou Niannian with a dull expression, originally Director Zheng informed him today to receive Guan Lao from Kyoto and a group of elders in the judicial circle.
After settling down the old people, Guan Ping proposed to go around the consultant's office, and he happily led Guan Ping over.
As long as they do what they do, there is no one who does not know Guan Ping's status in the judicial circles.
"Off.... Lawyer Xiao Zhou, do you know Guan Lao?" Gao Zhiyong saw Zhou Niannian and Guan Ping getting along, and only felt that his tongue was not good.
