"There are some objections. Zhou Fudao.

"Say it!"

Fang Chaoyang was a little impatient, but he could also understand that on such occasions, the defendant usually showed a strong desire to survive, hoping to make various excuses and mitigate the crimes committed.

"It's true that I lit the quilt, but the fire shouldn't be so fierce, maybe there are other sources of fire. Zhou Fudao.

"Anything else?"

"Nope. ”

The investigation report was sent to the defense lawyer Yan Ze, who read it carefully and said that he had no objections, and the facts of the case were clear, there were no candles, lighters or other items in the victim's house, and the fire was lit by Zhou Fu.

The judges also read the evidence and returned it to the prosecution, and prosecutor Li Chunlei continued to present evidence, which was a lighter. Zhou Fu was very stingy, and after the incident, he was still using a lighter that set fire, and was put away by the police.

Zhou Fu has no objection to this evidence, it is provided by him, of course, if the matter is repeated, he will definitely choose to completely destroy it without leaving any traces.

Li Chunlei showed some more evidence, the footprint survey, Zhou Fu did not go to the East House, and the witness testimony of some people in the mahjong parlor that Zhou Fu went out before the fire.

Zhou Fu has no objection to these evidences, and when he went out, many people saw it, which is an indisputable fact. Moreover, the police interrogation record is also there, and he confessed to the crimes of indecency, arson and murder.

After the documentary evidence was presented, Li Chunlei said: "Presiding judge, the prosecution has applied for witness An Xianwei to appear in court to testify. ”

"Allowed, the summoner An Xianwei appeared in court. Fang Chaoyang said.

In the auditorium, a man in his early forties, under the guidance of the bailiff, came to the witness stand and stood still, this person was wearing a black suit, slightly chubby, and his waist was very straight.

"Please sit down and tell us your name, age, and occupation. Fang Chaoyang pressed his hand and motioned for him to sit down and speak.

After the man sat down, he spoke: "My name is An Xianwei, forty-three years old, and I am the director of the village committee of Baishu Village. ”

"Witness An Xianwei, according to the laws of our country, witnesses have the obligation to testify truthfully to the court, and they must bear legal responsibility if they intentionally give false testimony or conceal criminal evidence. Did you hear me clearly?"

"Hear me clearly. ”

"Please sign the pledge to testify truthfully. ”

"Okay. ”

The bailiff brought the guarantee, and after An Xianwei signed it, he was handed over to the clerk Zhao Fangfang by the bailiff, Zhou Fu looked at An Xianwei, obviously showing a dissatisfied look.

Next, the prosecutor can ask questions of witnesses. Fang Chaoyang said.

"Witness An Xianwei, when did you find out that there was a fire in the victim Shi Meihua's home?" asked Li Chunlei.

"At about two o'clock in the afternoon, I happened to come back from the field, and I heard someone shouting that the Shi family was on fire, which was a big deal, and I hurriedly ran over, and I saw smoke coming out of the window. An Xianwei said.

"At this time, did anyone go in?" Li Chunlei said.

"There were three people who went in, including Zhou Fu, and I followed in, it was very choking inside, I couldn't see anything at first, it was all smoke. An Xianwei said.

"What measures have you taken?"

"Of course, I had to put out the fire immediately, and I immediately asked people to get water from the kitchen and put out the fire. Alas, poor plum blossom child, just curled up on the ground, looking distressing. An Xianwei sighed, trying his best to suppress a somewhat choked emphasis.

"Did you splash water on the victim Shi Meihua?" asked Li Chunlei.

"No, the fire on Plum Blossom has been extinguished. ”

"Defendant Zhou Fu, during this period, did he touch the body of the victim Shi Meihua?"

"Nope. ”

"Are you sure?"

"No, the child's body was still very hot at that time, and no one dared to touch it. An Xianwei said.

An Xianwei's answer exposed Zhou Fu's lie just now, he tried to turn the victim Shi Meihua over, and the fingerprints on Shi Meihua's body were left when he threatened.

"Director An, I didn't give the village less money, and during the Chinese New Year, I also gave you good wine and cigarettes, you can't frame me like this. Zhou Fu shouted.

"The village has accepted your donation, but I haven't touched the cigarettes and alcohol you took, so I've left them all open. Zhou Fu, you killed the poor child Meihua, you are a brute, do you still expect others to say good things for you?" An Xianwei snorted.

"I obviously squatted in front of Shi Meihua, but I went in before you, how do you know I didn't touch it?"

"I'm afraid my claws will be burned. An Xianwei said disdainfully.

"Defendant, keep quiet, and witnesses should also pay attention to the way they speak, and do not curse. Fang Chaoyang reminded.

"Witness An Xianwei, what measures did you take after the case?" Li Chunlei continued to ask.

Zhou Fu shouted there and shed tears, saying that plum blossoms should not play with fire, and as a result, they hurt themselves and their families. But I always felt that something was wrong, although Meihua had a disability, but the child was very steady and careful, and would not make a fire at home, let alone in bed. Besides, if she accidentally lit the quilt, she should have called for help, and she shouldn't have fallen to the head of the bed and couldn't climb out. So, I told everyone to close the scene immediately, and then called the police. An Xianwei said.

"You did a very good job!" Li Chunlei praised, and then said to the judge's bench: "Report to the presiding judge, the prosecution has finished questioning the witnesses." ”

"Defendant Zhou Fu, do you have any objections to the witness's testimony just now?" asked Fang Chaoyang.

"There was an objection, he went late and didn't see the situation clearly, and I was the first to go in. Zhou Fudao.

"Not long after, when I went in, there was still a fire inside! The smoke was so loud that no one could get close. An Xianwei said directly.

"It was too late, everyone heard it, he just admitted that he was late! I reported that An Xianwei had accepted bribes. Zhou Fu raised his hand.

"I didn't. Speaking of which, there is one thing that is really wrong, not taking care of your mahjong parlor. An Xianwei said.

"Whether the witness accepted bribes or not is irrelevant to this case. Defendant, do you have any other objections?" Fang Chaoyang waved his hand and asked again.

"Nope!"

"Does the defense need to question witnesses?" Fang Chaoyang asked, turning his head.

"Nope. Yan Ze said.

Zhou Fu looked at Yan Ze dissatisfied, as a lawyer who paid for money, he should be facing himself everywhere, how could he say that he didn't?

Yan Ze didn't look at him either, the testimony provided by An Xianwei was all obvious facts, and there was nothing to refute, and the prosecution only wanted to prove one thing through this witness that the scene of the crime was not seriously damaged.

"Ask the witness An Xianwei to leave the courtroom. Fang Chaoyang said.

An Xianwei left the witness stand, returned to the gallery and sat down, looking at Shi Meihua's parents, who lowered their heads and seemed to have no reaction to all this.

"Presiding judge, the prosecution applied for witness Zhao Qiuju to testify in court. Li Chunlei said.

Agreed, the witness Zhao Qiuju appeared in court. Fang Chaoyang said.

Zhao Qiuju was not in the auditorium, and the bailiff took her in after going out, a woman in her early thirties, very fat and dark, working all year round, and her skin looked very rough.

Zhao Qiuju obviously came to the courtroom for the first time, standing on the witness stand, rubbing the corners of her clothes crampedly, and her smile looked very unnatural.

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