"Since you were a member of the justice system, the rules of the court should be clear that you should not give false testimony. Fang Chaoyang emphasized.

"Understood!"

After signing, Yuan Dan began to ask: "Witness Lei Beicheng, were you one of the investigators of the 625 corpse shredding case back then?"

"Yes, it is responsible for investigating the activities of the villagers that night and eliminating the suspect. Lei Beicheng nodded.

"Have you been in contact with the witness Fan Fuyang?"

"I went to the house to investigate, and Fan Fuyang admitted that he went to the river that night, set off at 8:30, and returned at 9:20. Judging from the itinerary, there is no time to commit the crime. "Rebe became enlightened.

"Was there a record at the time?" asked Yuan Dan again.

"Yes!" Lei Beicheng said, showing a notebook, plastic skin, which looked old.

After opening the notebook, Lei Beicheng folded a page of paper, and the bailiff passed through the defense seat and submitted it to the judge's seat, which indeed recorded that it was June 27, and recorded with a pen that Fan Fuyang had gone to the river that night. In addition, there is another very definite content, in order to prove himself, Fan Fuyang said that he met Xu Guangyuan.

There is another record next, Xu Guangyuan also admitted that he went to the river, but as for who he saw, he did not say clearly. Because I didn't see it clearly at all, I suspected that it was Fan Fuyang, and there was a signature on it.

"The presiding judge, the defense applied for a technical appraisal of whether this record was written 20 years ago. In addition, Xu Guangyuan's signature is also questionable. Chi Weiran raised his hand.

He doesn't want to give up whenever he has the slightest opportunity, but in the eyes of everyone, this statement is a bit nonsense and even vexatious.

There is no problem with the request, and it stands to reason that the court should accept it, but the appraisal will take time, so the trial will inevitably be postponed.

Fang Chaoyang looked at the two jurors, they were silent, they didn't want to be entangled with Chi Weiran anymore, it was difficult to say that after the handwriting was appraised, they had to evaluate the mental condition of the witnesses.

Fang Chaoyang still planned to agree, but before he could speak, a voice sounded in the court.

"I remember, it was Da Yangzi who cried by the river that night. Xu Guangyuan said loudly.

"Witness Xu Guangyuan, you are responsible for your words. Chi Weiran looked angry.

It's a pity that Xu Guangyuan didn't hear clearly from a distance, so Yuan Dan left the prosecution seat, approached Xu Guangyuan and asked loudly: "Witness Xu Guangyuan, how can you be sure that person is Fan Fuyang?"

"Hehe, who often cries his nose, who else will there be besides Da Yangzi, who is afraid of his daughter-in-law. Xu Guangyuan said with a smile.

"It's better than you, who have no woman in your life!" Fan Fuyang said disdainfully.

"We haven't been beaten by a woman either. Xu Guangyuan said.

There was laughter from the audience, and Fang Chaoyang knocked down the gavel and said, "Keep the courtroom quiet." ”

"Presiding Judge, the prosecution's questioning is over. Yuan Dan said.

"Trouble the bailiff to take the witness Xu Guangyuan's affidavit from the clerk. Fang Chaoyang said.

The bailiff immediately took the guarantee from Zhao Fangfang's hand and handed it to the judge's seat, and Fang Chaoyang took the members of the collegial panel to compare the handwriting, and it can be concluded that the two signatures are from the same person.

"Just now, the members of the collegial panel can prove that the signature on this notebook was written by the witness Xu Guangyuan by comparing the handwriting. In addition, the witness Xu Guangyuan had already changed his testimony, and the court held that there was no need for a handwriting evaluation, and rejected the defense's request. Fang Chaoyang said.

Chi Weiran didn't speak again, and he didn't expect Xu Guangyuan to suddenly change his tone and let everything that had been carefully planned go down the drain.

Fang Chaoyang could see that Xu Guangyuan was afraid of Lei Beicheng, a former police officer, who was originally an uncertain lie, and now he didn't dare to continue to hold on.

The three witnesses were taken away from the trial scene, and the evidence and cross-examination stage of the 625 corpse mutilation case was not over, Fang Chaoyang continued to ask: "Does the prosecution still have any evidence to present?"

"Yes, the prosecution continues to apply for witnesses to testify. Yuan Dan said.

"What's the name of the witness?"

"Shang Yuling!"

As soon as he heard this name, Shang Zaijun's mouth opened wide in shock, and then roared: "I protest, don't involve my daughter, she doesn't know anything." ”

"Defendant Shang Zaijun, stay quiet, otherwise, coercive measures will be taken against you. Fang Chaoyang said coldly.

Commander Shang Zaijun sighed, thumped his head with his hand, and lowered his head.

The members of the lawyer team all showed surprised expressions, they obviously did not expect that Shang Zaijun's daughter would testify in court, and she was on the side of the prosecution, it goes without saying that she must have testified to the prosecution.

The witness Shang Yuling appeared in court. Fang Chaoyang said loudly.

Five minutes later, a plainly dressed woman came to the courtroom and stood on the witness stand, her eyes were red and swollen, and she looked like she had cried, but her eyes looked at Shang Zaijun in the defendant's seat, and her expression was extremely complicated.

"Please sit down and tell me your name, age, and occupation. Fang Chaoyang said.

"Shang Yuling, 28 years old, self-employed. Shang Yuling's eyes never left the defendant's dock, and she didn't even notice that her hair was hanging down on her face.

Shang Yuling looks older than her actual age, probably because her mother died early and took on more burdens of life, and she looks very mature.

Shang Zaijun kept his head down and didn't make eye contact with his daughter, I don't know if it was because of guilt in his heart or because he was angry with his daughter for being ungrateful.

After the last trial, his daughter has not been to see him, and she has given up in her attitude, and even this time she entrusted a lawyer, which was signed and agreed by Shang Zaijun himself.

"The presiding judge, the defense believes that the witness Shang Yuling and the defendant have a long-term life experience, and it is uncertain what kind of grievances there are, so apply for witness recusal. Chi Weiran raised his hand.

"The application is invalid!" Fang Chaoyang said.

Then, Fang Chaoyang informed the witness of the relevant regulations that should be followed, and asked Shang Yuling to sign the guarantee, and he noticed that Shang Yuling's hand signing had been trembling.

Needless to say, the inner entanglement naturally requires great courage for a daughter to send her father to a dead end.

"The prosecution, you can start questioning witnesses. Fang Chaoyang said.

Yuan Dan asked as quickly as he could, "Witness Shang Yuling, how old were you when the 625 corpse shredding case occurred?"

"Just passed my eighth birthday. Shang Yuling replied.

"The previous evidence showed that you had mumps at that time, is it true?" asked Yuan Dan.

"Yes, it's easy for children to get cheeky. Shang Yuling subconsciously touched her left cheek.

"Now tell me what you saw on the night of June 25. Yuan Dan said.
