The tense atmosphere reached an extreme, but in the end it fell back to square one and focused on the case.

Chen Yin came to the witness stand, and Song Siming first asked him: "What is the relationship between Baiyang and you?"

"It doesn't matter, we happened to ride in the same elevator a long time ago, because of some of his actions, so I remember it deeply. ”

"Can you elaborate on that?" Song Siming asked.

Chen Yin pondered for half a second: "When the elevator door opened, I saw him and his girlfriend for the first time...... Kissing ......"

Some of the spectators began to whisper, and the presiding judge banged on the gavel.

"What do you think you can do?" to get to the point.

"Human witness!"

"That's good. Song Siming raised his eyebrows and asked, "Tell me what else you heard and saw?"

"I heard Poplar say that if Chen Yifeng continues to harass his girlfriend, then give him some color and see!"

Hearing this, Fang Miao turned the pen and smiled disdainfully, and noticed Song Siming's expression, it seemed that he had not understood it in advance.

"Is there any substantial evidence?"

"Yes!" Chen Yin replied categorically: "Before I took the elevator, I usually carried a voice recorder with me after I finished talking to a client, and I also inadvertently recorded a conversation between Bai Yang and his girlfriend. ”

Song Siming's expression did not fluctuate, and he applied to play the recording, and a fierce male voice spread: "Today is to give him a warning, and next time, he must have half his life!"

A short sentence caused a huge sensation, and Bai Huiwen in the front row wanted to stand up with a frightened face, but was pressed down by Li Xin on the side, and she shook her head at her.

The presiding judge struck the gavel several times before the audience calmed down again.

The interrogation continued: "Is there any other evidence?"

"Yes!" Chen Yin couldn't spit out as if he was reciting a text, "Bai Yang and her girlfriend got out of the elevator first, and I didn't pay attention to it, but on the same day, I received a complaint from the customer, Mr. Chen Yifeng, and strongly requested that these two people should never be allowed to appear in the community where he lives in the future." ”

"Do you know why?"

"Hmm. Chen Yin nodded, not seeing any flaws: "After receiving the complaint, the community staff contacted me, I deliberately went to adjust the monitoring, Chen Yifeng angrily pushed the two out of the door, although there were only a few seconds of the picture, but still found very important details." ”

"Is that these?" Song Siming took a few photos handed over by his assistant and lined them up one by one.

Chen Yin glanced at it and nodded quickly.

Song Siming suddenly turned around, and his voice was loud: "This is a screenshot of the video, in the photo, Chen Yifeng has a bandage on his head, and Bai Yang's face is full of colors, which is enough to show that the two are fighting indoors, and with the condition of their injuries, it can be proved that the defense lawyer's interrogation of witness No. 1 is indeed a loophole!"

The situation took a sharp turn, Meng Chaoge's heart trembled and panicked, Bai Huiwen's hands were intertwined and rubbed, like sitting on pins and needles, and then Fang Miao was still calm and untouchable.

Song Siming's eyes showed a smug look, looking at Fang Miao with the eyes of watching a good show, the confrontation between the two sides, at a glance, the victory and defeat have been divided!

Chen Yin's testimony has been clarified, and Song Siming's interrogation is over.

"Is there anything else the defense lawyer would like to ask?" the presiding judge asked as usual, pushing the glasses on the bridge of his nose.

"Yes!" Fang Miao got up, her sharp eyes swept over the high-spirited and smug Song Siming, and landed on Chen Yin.

"Have you ever seen the two of them fight and Chen Yifeng suffered a head injury as a result?" she smiled.

"I ...... There is no ......" Chen Yin hesitated, "but the video is ......"

Fang Miao raised his hand to signal him to stop: "You just need to answer my question, you don't need to make an extension." She turned to face the judgment seat: "The bandage on Chen Yifeng's head in the photo shows blood stains, which cannot be ruled out as the result of intense movements, but there are no other external injuries on his body." ”

"But it's true that he said he was going to clean up people!" Chen Yin was anxious and raised another objection.

Fang Miao suddenly turned to face him, smiling on his lips, but his eyes were very cruel: "Really?"

"Of course!".

His categorical answer made Fang Miao look at him for a while, and after making sure that the other party was not lying, she ended the question.

This round, she couldn't do much more to refute.

Then it was the turn of the defence witness, an elderly woman in her sixties.

The appearance of such an elderly witness in court caused the people in the audience to exchange their heads and ears to express their views for a while.

"Old man, how did you witness the situation on the day of the crime, and what did you see?" Fang Miao was the first to ask.

The old man held his glasses, "I live in the unit building next door to them, and I was going to pick up my grandson from school that day, and when I passed downstairs, I heard a sound from above, so I looked." ”

"Do you remember what floor it was?"

"It seems to be...... 4th floor. ”

Fang Miao smiled and motioned for her to continue.

"I saw a guy up there, almost half of his upper body hanging out of the window, and his neck was still being choked like that. As he spoke, the old man gestured.

"Do you remember what the characteristics of the person who pinched him at that time?"

Song Siming: "Objection, the defense is deliberately inducing witnesses. ”

"Presiding Judge, I'm restoring the real situation at the time of the crime!" Fang Miao explained sideways, her voice raised.

"The objection is invalid and the defence may continue. ”

With permission, the old man briefly recalled: "I didn't see the child's face too clearly, but he had a lot of strength. ”

"Why do you say that?"

"He's got a shoulder injury, it's here. The old man pointed to himself, "There was blood flowing down his arm, red, but the young man hanging from the window was still being pushed down by him." ”

"In addition to the blood stains on your arms, do you see any other red places like the ones you described?" Fang Miao said in a deep voice.

Undoubtedly, this is the key!

The old man frowned and shook his head after a moment of consideration.

When Song Siming asked a question, he took off his glasses before getting up.

"Old man, do you wear glasses a lot?"

"Occasionally I wear it. ”

Song Siming nodded, "Then did you wear glasses on the day you picked up your grandson from school?"

Hearing this, Fang Miao was stunned, and her thumb and index finger rubbed together.

"Nope. The old man replied slowly.

This answer hit Song Siming's heart, and then he proposed, "Then can you take off your glasses now, I have a question that needs to be confirmed." ”

The old man nodded and did as he asked.

Song Siming pointed to the judgment seat, "Can you describe the color of the tie worn by the presiding judge?"

"It should be ......," the old man's eyes narrowed into slits, "it's black...... No, no, it's dark red...... It's not, it's brown ......."

After this series of answers, some people began to whisper below.

Song Siming put on his glasses and walked to the center of the courtroom and was about to speak, but was suddenly interrupted by Fang Miao.

"Presiding judge, what I am holding in my hand is the video taken when the deceased and the defendant entered the scene of the crime on the day of the crime, which came from the dashcam of the delivery truck downstairs, and now the truck driver is waiting outside the courtroom, and the authenticity of the video can be checked at any time. As he spoke, Fang Miao handed over the TF memory card wrapped in film, "In addition, I saved the two key pictures inside. ”

She exchanged glances with Meng Chaoge again, and then projected the two photos on the screen.

The case has been carried out so far, this can be regarded as key evidence, and in an instant, the court was in an uproar, and they saw the deceased Chen Yifeng who entered the scene with a knife, as for the appearance of the knife, it was not mentioned from beginning to end!

When Fang Miao returned to her position, Meng Chaoge gave her a thumbs up.

The case is complicated, and it is necessary to verify the desirability of the video, and announce a temporary adjournment for judgment deliberation.

Fang Miao breathed a sigh of relief and closed her eyes to recuperate, due to excessive nervous tension, her temples were pounding at this moment.

Meng Chaoge had just left the table, and soon returned, whispering something in her ear.

I saw Fang Miao open his eyes in the next second, and asked in surprise and surprise, "Really?"

Meng Chaoge nodded like pounding garlic.

Fang Cai's exhaustion was swept away, and Fang Miao waited for the next court session in good spirits.

In the last row of the auditorium, Yan Zheng rubbed his knuckles with his fingertips and smiled silently, this is what he can do for her.

The court was held again, and the parties were questioned as usual, and when it was Fang Miao's turn, she walked straight to the center of the trial and said loudly: "Presiding judge, we have a newcomer to apply to appear in court, and I am also one of the parties to the case. ”

Hearing this, Song Siming's eyes jumped twice, and he looked at Fang Miao in disbelief, seeing that she was so confident, an ominous premonition followed.

To avoid a protracted battle, the trial finally agreed to the appearance of the new witnesses.

Under the expectant gaze of everyone on the field, Zhou Yan walked up to the witness stand step by step, and when she appeared, she first went to see Bai Huiwen who was sitting in the front row of the auditorium, and finally Fang Miao.

Fang Miao stepped forward and interrogated: "On the day of the incident, you were taken by the police to make a record, and you claimed that Bai Yang took the lead in injuring people with a knife, and Chen Yifeng accidentally pushed him downstairs in legitimate defense, is it true?"

Zhou Yan was silent for a moment and replied, "That's not true. ”

"Then please tell me the truth, what was the situation at the time of the incident?" Fang Miao suppressed his excitement and acted according to the procedure.

"Chen Yifeng came to me that day, his attitude was very extreme, and he also brought a knife, I was very scared, so when he was not paying attention, I called Baiyang. Zhou Yan paused, feeling a little unstable: "When Poplar came, that person was about to ...... me Use it on me!"

She lowered her head, her brow furrowed.

Bai Yang picked up the fruit knife at home and stabbed him in the shoulder, after that, Chen Yifeng kicked him first, kicked him directly to the ground, and then grabbed his neck and walked to the window, I was behind the man, I didn't dare to do anything, and I watched ...... Watching him fall......"

When the truth was revealed, what was shown in front of everyone was a bloody and disgusting scene, Bai Huiwen hugged her head and cried silently, for more than three months, in almost every nightmare, she could see such a scene, and now that it has been revealed, it is like a nightmare repeated!

The court was silent, and everyone was brought into a heavy and negative mood, but Fang Miao still had to continue under pressure: "How did the deceased get hurt?"

Zhou Yan sniffed and recalled: "After Poplar fell, Chen Yifeng was about to go crazy with joy, I took advantage of his defenselessness and stabbed him in the neck with his knife!"

As he spoke, Zhou Yan chuckled a few times, "He actually turned his head and glared at me, but what could it be, I gave him a knife in the chest, a knife on his legs and arms, until he got rid of his hatred!"

When it comes to what she has done, it can be seen that she is very enjoyable.

Fang Miao flipped through the evidence column of the case record in front of Zhou Yan, and paused word by word: "Does that mean that the murder weapon that really killed the deceased was not the one found at the scene of the crime?"

"Yes, I hid the knife long before the police came. ”

After the dead silence, there was a surging discussion in the auditorium, and the truth was revealed in the fog, as if it were expected and unexpected.

Several people in the public prosecution team, except for Song Siming, were all sad.

In fact, after verifying the video in the dash cam, they have another guess about the real murderer, but the truth often can't be seen directly.

Fang Miao went back and sat down, and in the opposite position, Song Siming was staring at her, more angry and stinging than 6 years ago.

Before Zhou Yan finished speaking, she calmed down, turned sideways slightly, faced Bai Huiwen, and smiled with relief: "Finally, I want to apologize to Bai Yang's mother first...... I'm sorry!" she bowed together, and the last three words were the most profound.

Tears broke through her eye sockets and flowed out wantonly, Bai Huiwen covered her mouth, her eyes were red, and she refused to look at her.

"I apologize for the torment my escape has caused you. Zhou Yan bowed and refused to get up, for a long time, the audience was silent, as if time was no longer flowing.

Fang Miao looked at Bai Huiwen and understood a truth in an instant: as a mother, she has persisted for so long, and she only wants to do one thing, that is, to "remove" the three words of murderer that fell on her son Bai Yang's head.

An apology may be soothing, but it is far less important than innocence and truth, which is one of the reasons why the rule of law exists.

At the end of the bow, which lasted for nearly half a minute, Zhou Yan looked at Fang Miao, "I want to apologize to my defender, Lawyer Fang, and I'm sorry for rejecting your requests again and again!" She took a step back and bowed, and looked around the courtroom when she got up, her face pale: "I also have to apologize to the court, because ...... I've lied here, I've lied to everyone......"

Outside the window is the scorching summer sky, the world is replaced with a confused red, dazzlingly bright, but it will eventually fade, and the light that blooms in the courtroom is enough to overshadow all the splendor and endure......

At the last sound of the gavel of the trial, the presiding judge made a fair judgment: "After the final deliberation of the trial court and the collegial panel, the criminal responsibility of the original defendant will be revoked, and Zhou Yan will confess to the entire process of killing the deceased Chen Yifeng, the evidence of the crime is sufficient, he will be arrested in court, and the verdict will be announced on a later date!"

After a short farewell to Bai Huiwen, there was no Yan Zheng in the auditorium, Fang Miao walked out of the courthouse lightly, and as soon as she got out of the revolving door, she had a big hug with Meng Chaoge, and she couldn't believe that she had won the case.

Meng Chaoge pinched her itchy flesh, and just as the two were having fun, Meng Chaoge poked Fang Miao's back, and his eyes signaled that someone was coming.

Not far away, Yan Zheng was dressed in a white shirt and black trousers, and the noon sun hit his handsome face, adding a bit of brilliance to the smile on the corner of his mouth.

Fang Miao held her breath, she was supposed to be a hardboard working girl in professional attire, but at this moment, she was looking at him deeply in front of the public.

The wind was blowing from all around, and the catkins were flying, more like they were dreaming.
