258 - Reconvening

"Okay", Shen Murong stretched out her hand towards Hou Yangming, and the two of them shook together.

"Let me ask one last question," Hou Yangming said, "what hatred and what grudge?"

"The hatred is as deep as the sea, I will tell you later. ”

Shen Murong, who was full of worries, left everything behind after seeing Shen Nan.

Anyway, Su Qin couldn't run, and now that she and Shen Nan were in love, she couldn't bear to ruin such an atmosphere so quickly.

The day of Liao Manli's second court session was coming soon, and everyone was still waiting at the door of the court early in the morning.

Shen Nan stood beside Shen Murong, avoiding Liao Manli's gaze as if hiding from the plague.

Liao Manli is also interested, since the last time Su Qin exposed their relationship in court, she has not contacted Shen Nan again.

At this time, Liao Manli should be busy trying to find a way to clear her suspicion, and she doesn't have the time or heart to find Shen Nan.

In the face of personal safety, feelings seem to be less important.

After everyone walked into the courtroom and sat down, the judge appeared, everyone stood up and saluted according to the routine, and then after the prosecutor made a statement, the first witness was invited - Li Muxue.

"Li Muxue, please state your relationship with the defendant. The prosecutor said.

"When I participated in a beauty pageant, Liao Manli used to be a judge. ”

"According to your confession, does the defendant, that is, Liao Manli in your mouth, often talk about Tan Yuan behind your back?"

"Not often, but when she's on a cruise, she's sometimes quite emotional. ”

"Why do you say that?"

"I don't know how much hatred Liao Manli has with Tan Yuan, but I remember that she once said something like 'I want Tan Yuan to look good'. ”

"Is it just 'to make Tan Yuan look good'?"

"No, she once said something like 'I can't wait for Tan Yuan to die'. ”

Liao Manli stood up and wanted to speak, but was stopped by the lawyer, the judge glared at Liao Manli, the lawyer pulled Liao Manli's clothes, Liao Manli sat down again, staring at Li Muxue with two eyes.

Li Muxue was not afraid of Liao Manli staring at her, and her demeanor was calm.

"Your Excellency, I'm done. The prosecutor said.

"The defence lawyer can now question the witnesses. ”

Lawyer Luo stood up and walked to Li Muxue's side, "Li Muxue, you said that you met my client at the beauty pageant, right?"

"Yes. ”

"As far as I know, you and my client, Liao Manli, had a conflict on the day of the final. ”

"It's not a conflict, it'sβ€”"

"Li Muxue, let me remind you that there is a price to be paid for false testimony. Not everything can be said in court. ”

"Liao Manli's attitude towards Tan Yuan is obvious to all, am I wrong?"

"Li Muxue, to answer my question, are you sure you have ever heard Liao Manli say something like 'I can't wait for Tan Yuan to die'?"

"I-I-she says so much in a day, how do I remember so much?"

"Li Muxue, answer my question, have you ever heard Liao Manli say something like 'I can't wait for Tan Yuan to die'?"

"Yes, I heard that. ”

"Time and place, is there anyone else present besides you?"

"This- I don't remember this. ”

"Do you not remember the time and place, or do you not remember what Liao Manli said?"

"If you don't remember, you don't remember!" Li Muxue was asked by Lawyer Luo, and her speech became louder.

Lawyer Luo turned to the judge in a dashing manner and saluted to the judge, "My question is finished." ”

The prosecutor glanced at Li Muxue, bowed his head and wrote a few words on the document in front of him.

"Your Excellency, I apply to summon the next witness, Tan Yuan's brother Tan Ming. Lawyer Luo said.

The bailiff came over and opened the fence gate, signaling that Li Muxue could go.

"I haven't finished talking yet, Liao Manli really said that!"

"Please remain silent! Witnesses, please leave. ”

Li Muxue sighed and left the witness stand, Tan Ming walked out of the door, came to the witness seat and stood up, and swore an oath according to the Bible.

Lawyer Luo walked to Tan Ming's side, "Tan Ming, could you please describe in detail what you saw during the power outage on the night of the incident?"

"When the power went out, my first thought was my sister. She's been afraid of the dark since she was a childβ€”" Tan Ming paused, reaching out and wiping the corners of his eyes.

He continued: "So I walked in the direction of my sister's room, and halfway through, I met Shen Murong's mother, Hong Yan. I thought that my sister should not be a problem if she was accompanied by Weng Cuishan, but I was afraid that something would happen to Mrs. Hong alone, so I helped her to the deck, and we separated on the deck. ”

"Tan Ming, are you sure everything you said is true?" Lawyer Luo interrupted Tan Ming.

"Of course, what do I have to hide from these things?"

Shen Murong glanced back at Hong Yan, and the two looked at each other.

In order to help Shen Murong cover, when Director Xing was looking for her, she once said that she was with Shen Murong when the power went out, but she forgot that she had met Tan Ming on the way to the deck......

Lawyer Luo walked over to the desk and picked up a document and handed it to the clerk, who handed it to the judge.

The judge glanced at it, looked up at Lawyer Luo and the prosecutor, raised a small hammer and struck "Adjournment!"

After everyone saluted, the prosecutor hurried out of the courtroom.

Judge: "How did you do it? Didn't you find such a big loophole?"

As she spoke, she handed a document to the prosecutor, on which was Hong Yan's testimony, saying that she was with Shen Murong when the power went out.

"Alas, really, Lao Xing may have been negligent at that time and did not ask Tan Ming to record a good confession, so he didn't know that Hong Yan had made false testimony at that time. ”

"I don't care whose negligence it is, such a big loophole, you still go to sue Liao Manli, crazy. ”

Lao Xing insisted that this Liao Manli had something to do with Tan Yuan's accident, and she was the most suspicious, who would have thought that there was such a thing here. ”

"Let's postpone the retrial, can you find more substantive evidence to come over? What is that Li Muxue today, let Xiao Luo stop in a few words, how can such a testimony be used?"

"Okay, then let's adjourn the trial. I'll talk to Lao Xing and ask him to find more evidence. ”

"That's right, so far, I haven't found the location where Tan Yuan fell into the water, so I arrested Liao Manli, wasting taxpayers' money, you and I can't eat and walk around. ”

When the court was adjourned this time, Liao Jin's face had a smile on his face, and he no longer looked sad.

The reason why Liao Manli became the object of suspicion at that time was because she did not have an alibi, and now she is not the only one who has no alibi, but also Shen Murong......
