Chapter 60: Tricks are frequent

The presiding judge looked at Yu Xunruo: "Is what the defendant said true?"

I saw that his fingers trembled with anger, his upper and lower lips were dry and white in a hurry, and the anger spurted out from the dantian: "It's all fake! General Ma absolutely never said anything like that, and the Ma Mansion can testify from top to bottom!"

Ma Ren half-bent his waist and shouted with a roar: "That's because you all wear a pair of pants with him, and you help him bully me and bully my father!"

Ji Bingzhi looked at the materials of the last trial, looked at Ye Jishi with a smug face on the other side, and couldn't help but drum in his heart. Previously, Ye Jishi mainly used the fact that the Ma Mansion was closed to the outside world, wanting to prove that this was Ma Shouhua's reaction to a weak heart. After the adjournment, Ji Bing once thought that as long as he refuted it with facts, he could crack the offensive. But now she vaguely guessed that Ye Jishi no longer cared about the reliability of the evidence from a legal point of view, and instead wanted to use the interest group as a hint to comprehensively and thoroughly question all the hostages on Ma Shouhua's side.

Since the conspiracy of the Japanese spies is to torment people's hearts, then whether they win or lose the lawsuit, perhaps they have a set of follow-up plans. Thinking about this case from the perspective of the public, those who support Ma Shouhua seem to be in an unreachable and inoffensive class in the eyes of the outside world, while those who support Ma Ren are all from the grassroots of the people. This has created a situation in which the weak confronted the powerful, and the layman's judgment is always the one who is weak and the one who is justified.

In such a situation, it is difficult to concentrate on studying the evidence and listing a bunch of witnesses of great social status in the long run.

Yu Xunruo lowered his forehead, trying to maintain a good demeanor, and then reluctantly questioned calmly: "Captain, I still remember that the last time the court was held, Ma Ren kept saying that the Ma Mansion was closed to guests, and the porter and guards were obstructing him from meeting General Ma from beginning to end. This is a world away from what I said today!"

According to the procedure, after the parties have finished speaking, the lawyer can make some supplementary speeches. But Ji Bingzhi, who suddenly had a new understanding of the trial situation, was a little unconfident, and she didn't know how sure she could be of maintaining the original style of play. However, if you blindly change the tone of your defense without preparation, it is very easy for your opponent to detect it, and once you are caught in the sore foot of the psychological change, you may not be able to defeat the army.

Ji Bingzhi thought about it again and again, clenched his fists, got up and said, "The defendant Ma Ren is an unemployed vagrant, his social relationship is not clear, and his address is difficult to verify. Based on this, I believe that it is necessary to delve into the inconsistencies in the defendant's oral statement. ”

Journalists with unusual ears are always able to find the turning point of things from small details.

Fang Xiaorou turned her head and sneered at Li Fengzhu, as if to say, "The guests of your magazine are nothing more than that."

Li Fengzhu returned with cold eyes, looking at Ji Bingzhi's tightly clenched right hand, and his heart inevitably rose up and down.

I saw that the presiding judge then asked: "Then the defendant, can you provide more tangible witnesses and exhibits?"

"I, I'm ......" Ma Ren took off his hat and scratched it for a while, as if he was anxious to find something, "I, I, I, I want to think about it." ”

Ye Jishi was deflated for a moment, then got up and added: "Considering that my client is old, it is a hot summer. I implore the magistrates to proceed from humanity and allow my client to take a break. ”

After discussion, all five agreed. Then, move on to the direct questioning stage.

First of all, the plaintiff's questioning, Ji Bingzhi focused on the inconsistency of Ma Ren's statements on several visits to the Ma Mansion, and asked Yu Xunruo questions.

"That's right. Yu Xunruo nodded a few times, "Except for the question of saying that he recognized the wrong person for a while, and saying that he didn't admit the wrong person for a while." Ma Ren said for a while that General Ma ordered his subordinates to knock him out of the Ma Mansion, and at another time said that General Ma went to the patrol room to dredge up the relationship and asked the patrol to come forward and beat him out of the rental world. ”

Ji Bingzhi's dark eyes gradually shone brightly, and he took advantage of the situation to continue asking, "Has anyone ever heard Ma Ren personally say these two completely different statements at the same time?"

Yu Xunruo said: "Of course, the nearby neighbors have heard of it. ”

Yes, there is a need for such a non-interested witness.

Ji Bingzhi's eyebrows slowly relaxed: "In other words, they have also heard Ma Ren cry in person, and the porter and guards of the Ma Mansion prevented him from meeting with General Ma Shouhua, so that the two of them could not confront each other face-to-face, is this true?"

"Yes, the residents of the neighborhood should be able to testify. Yu Xunruo felt that she had regained her confidence from the last game, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

And Ye Jishi, who had been silent before, finally opened his mouth, and he said to Ma Ren: "Excuse me, why didn't you explain the fact that Ma Shouhua once recognized your father in person in the last trial?"

Ji Bingzhi's eyes quickly rolled back and forth, and she could feel that Ye Jishi's confidence to take the initiative to ask this question came from more comprehensive preparation. It seems that the further down the trial, the more trouble she will face.

When Ma Ren faced Ye Jishi's question, his posture was extremely relaxed: "Wouldn't the magistrate just say it as soon as he came in, let it be said before it was spoken, and let it be answered before it was answered." None of you asked me what the tiger said when he saw me. We are honest people, so we won't answer if we don't ask. ”

The standard Chinese is spoken well, why did you suddenly change to the local pronunciation? Li Fengzhu thought about it and put a question mark on the manuscript paper.

Ye Jishi calmly continued to ask: "After the plaintiff recognized you, did he say anything?"

"I was given the money to go back to my hometown. Ma Ren's stiff back straightened forward, and he raised his hand to stop Yu Xunruo, "I don't believe you asked him." ”

Someone in the auditorium listened attentively, and suddenly commented: "It's not that you have a weak heart to give any money!"

A small commotion of different opinions was stopped by the gavel as usual.

Yu Xunruo and Ji Bingzhi silently exchanged glances, this was the result of their most anxiety. A lawsuit can be fought if there is evidence, but malicious speculation cannot be stopped at all.

"How much is it, remember?" Ye Jishi nodded frequently with satisfaction, undoubtedly an encouragement to Ma Ren.

I saw Ma Ren stretch out two fingers and hold them up on his waist and said, "Two hundred oceans." ”

Ye Jishi laughed, and couldn't hide his sarcasm: "It's enough to return to Fengrun, and it can also be used for you to eat and drink for a while, which is obviously meant to be flattering." ”

"Oppose!" Ji Bingzhi glared, Teng Ran got up and said, "Oppose the defendant's lawyer to put forward misleading speculations." ”

The presiding judge did not look up and said, "The opposition is valid." ”

Ma Ren was secretly instructed by Ye Jishi's flying eye, and forcibly continued: "There is a lot of money, but I am a person with half a foot in the coffin, I have walked a long way, and I will lose my money when I get sick." I don't have many pictures, but when I can't die for a while, I can have a cold nest to gnaw. ”

Ye Jishi made a sympathy petition and deliberately stayed for two seconds before continuing: "Since you have always claimed that the plaintiff is your biological son, can you still tell the characteristics on his body? ”

Ma Ren asked without any pressure: "Yes, he has a horse tether on his ear." ”

New evidence appeared without warning, and Ji Bingzhi, who was taking shorthand, couldn't help but be stunned.

The five magistrates were also caught off guard and hurriedly asked the plaintiff's seat: "Is there a horse tie stake on the plaintiff's ear?"

Yu Xunruo replied calmly: "There is no left ear, and there is no right ear." I have a half-length photo of General Ma here, please take a look at it. Before he finished speaking, he took out the photo and lit it up to the clerk.

Taking advantage of the judge's review of the evidence, Ji Bingzhi quickly wrote down the main points on the paper, and she decided to temporarily change her playing style. Judging from the previous rhetoric, no matter what kind of witnesses and evidence, Ma Ren will use conspiracy to figure out its authenticity. Trying to focus all the issues on Ma Ren's own testimony, then, may be effective in preventing his strategy of responding to all changes with conspiracy theories.

Here, the presiding judge handed the photo back to the clerk: "Let the defendant recognize it too." ”

"Magistrate Master Mingjian, this person is not Ma Shouhua!"

Ma Ren's answer is a good illustration that this is a trial in which the show meets the soldiers' unreasonableness. If the defendant's attitude towards the ironclad evidence is always unconvinced, then I am afraid that it is necessary to be prepared to continue fighting. Li Fengzhu's heart hung in the air, and the hand holding the pen exerted a slight force, and he couldn't help but look at Ji Bingzhi who suddenly tightened his posture worriedly.

"I don't have any other questions. Ye Jishi, who gradually gained the upper hand, looked at Ji Bingzhi and smiled for a long time, and slowly returned to his seat.

Ji Bingzhi recovered quickly, she always maintained a good demeanor, kept her professional ethics and respected the court, and was not discouraged by the temporary change of wind, let alone prematurely proud.

When it came to the cross-questioning session, she got up and smiled at Ma Ren first: "Old man, according to what you just said, you are very kind to your children, so why did you insult my client in the street a few months later?"

"I can't be angry!" Ma Ren replied, slamming his fist on the table, giving himself a strong momentum.

"Okay. Ji Bingzhi sneered, "Then when you failed to recognize your son for the first time, how did you calm down?"

Ma Ren's morale, which was so easy to raise, was immediately frustrated, his head drooped, and he muttered in a low voice: "I...... That, I, I, the more I think about it, the more angry I get. ”

There were a few snickering in the back row of the auditorium that reached Li Fengzhu's ears.

Ji Bingzhi smiled and lowered his head, looked at the materials in his hand, and then asked: "Defendant, since you accepted my client's two hundred oceans, why did you tell the neighbors that you didn't have the opportunity to confront my client in person?"

Ma Ren sighed silently, took off the straw hat on his head and fanned it, and a pair of eyes were still looking for various opportunities to keep aiming at Ye Jishi.

Li Fengzhu lowered his head and supported his cheeks, and his index finger rubbed his earlobes again and again. Seeing that now she has understood, as long as Ma Ren and Ye Jishi make eye contact, trouble will follow.

"I, if I don't say that, he won't come out......! I just want to call the tiger down, I don't care if anything else. ”

Ma Ren's answer caused a small commotion in the auditorium that lasted ten seconds, and this reaction frightened his forehead with sweat.
