The auditors were stunned by the old man's words, and they talked a lot, and they all became excited.

This is a major discovery

The old man interrupted everyone's discussion and looked at the agent with a playful expression.

"Please let me finish. I don't know if anyone else noticed, I didn't notice it when the trial first started, but now I keep thinking of the woman's face, who has the same mark on her nose and has been massaging her nose. ”

The university lecturer pinched his nose and affirmed, "He's right, that woman does do this a lot." ”

The old man analyzed slowly but firmly: "This woman is about forty-five years old, but she wants people to think that she is only thirty-five years old. She painted very fashionable makeup, dyed her burgundy hair, and wore the most fashionable clothes. She didn't wear glasses, as women do. You should understand what they think. ”

The stout man retorted, "How do you know she's wearing glasses, just because she massages her nose?"

The university lecturer next to him immediately retorted: "She also has that kind of mark on her face, I see it!"

The stout man angrily kicked away the chair behind him and shouted, "What does that mean?"

The decorator was enraged by his behavior, stood up and said to him fiercely: "Listen, I'm fed up with you yelling all the time......"

The university lecturer held him down, "Okay, don't be like him. ”

The convener couldn't stand it anymore, and he said to the stout man: "Listen, he's right, I saw it too, I'm the closest person to her, and she has those marks on her nose too......"

The stout man was not convinced, and still asked the old man, "What do you want to prove? She has dyed her hair and has a mark on her nose, what does that mean?"

The old man ignored him and asked the agent, "Could these marks be caused by something other than glasses?"

The agent shook his head, "No way. ”

The stout man said dissatisfiedly, "I never saw a mark on her nose." ”

The agent's face was full of incredulity, he looked at the old man in front of him, and found for the first time that the other party was not an ordinary dull old man.

He didn't agree with the stout man's statement, "I see it." Oddly enough, I had never thought of this before. ”

Not willing to fail, the stout man asked loudly, "What about the lawyer? Why didn't the defendant's lawyer question it?"

Peng Yichen grabbed the old man's arm and fought back: "There are twelve people in this room, and eleven of them didn't think of this. ”

"What about the prosecutor? Why didn't he ask the woman to wear glasses when she appeared in court?"

"A lot of women don't wear glasses when they go out because they think they look ugly when they wear them. ”

"Well, she has a mark on her nose, I admit it, it's because of the glasses, right? She doesn't want to wear glasses, then people will think she's beautiful. But when she saw the boy kill his father, she was alone in the room. The stout man seemed to have grasped the last straw.

Peng Yichen didn't answer, looked at the agent and asked, "Will you sleep with glasses on?"

The agent shook his head, "No, it won't. No one goes to sleep with glasses on. ”

Peng Yichen smiled, "Therefore, we can reasonably infer that she was lying on the bed without glasses. ”

"That's just your reasoning!" the stout man was still unwilling to budge.

Peng Yichen immediately retorted: "This is indeed my inference, but it is a very reasonable inference. I don't think she was wearing glasses at all when she looked out the window at the time of the crime. Her testimony said that she was lying in bed, looking out the window, and that she simply did not have time to put her glasses on. ”

"Wait a minute......", the stout man wanted to interrupt Peng Yichen, but he didn't succeed.

Peng Yichen said firmly: "There is another inference, she just imagined that she saw the young man killing, but what she saw was only a vague shadow." ”

The stout man could no longer sit still, and he ran around the house like a fish in a net about to leave the water.

"How do you know what she's seeing? How do you know everything? Do you know what kind of glasses she's wearing? Maybe she's farsighted? How do you know she can't see?"

Peng Yichen looked at him and reiterated word by word: "I'm just saying that that woman's eyesight has become a major doubt. ”

The engineer also assisted: "Is it possible that she has to identify people 5 or 60 meters away at night without glasses?"

For the first time, the program house loudly scolded the stout man: "You can't rely on these suspicious evidence and testimony to let a person be sentenced... Field. ”

The stout man was still unconvinced, "You don't come to this set." ”

Peng Yichen didn't let go of this opportunity and asked him loudly, "Don't you think she may have read it wrong?"

"No!"

"Is there any chance that she is wrong?"

"Nope!"

Peng Yichen had already achieved the effect he wanted, he stood up and walked behind the white-collar worker, "Isn't it possible for her to be mistaken?"

The white-collar worker lowered his head and only said: "The defendant did not kill anyone"

He walked over to the nouveau riche on the side again, "Do you think the trial will pass?"

The nouveau riche shook his head slightly.

The stout man still didn't bow his head, "I just think that bastard killed his father." ”

Peng Yichen finally walked behind the agent and asked softly, "What do you think?"

This real "opponent" has also stopped insisting at this time: "He didn't kill anyone." I was persuaded that the trial could not pass. ”

The stout man seemed to have been punched hard, and he looked at the agent incredulously, "What's wrong with you?"

The agent still maintains his objectivity and calmness, "because I have doubts about this case now." ”

The old man looked at the stout man and said with a faint smile, "Now it's eleven to one again, as if our discussion had just begun." ”

The stout man obviously didn't have Peng Yichen's composure like one person against everyone, he kept pacing, and repeatedly shouted: "What about the other evidence......? The folding knife heels ...... Other...... What about all the evidence?"

The program gave him another blow: "You said we could put aside other evidence. ”

Peng Yichen looked at the tall and stout man in front of him, but saw that he was already vulnerable.

"Now it's up to you. ”

The stout man seemed to have been stimulated by a certain nerve, and shouted: "I don't care if I am alone, I have the right to choose what I want." ”

Peng Yichen looked at him quietly, "This is indeed your power. ”

Everyone looked at the stout man and stopped talking.

The stout man shouted, "What do you want to do? Pin me to the ground and force me to oppose the court's trial? ”

Peng Yichen replied softly: "We just want to hear what you have to say." ”

The stout man shouted, "I've said everything I have to say." ”

"But you didn't convince us, we want to hear it again, what we have is time. ”

The stout man was on the verge of collapse, and he roared and questioned everyone.

"All the evidence, all the testimony made in court proved him guilty. Do you think I'm an idiot?"

"You refuted the testimony that the kid bought the murder weapon just because you found a similar knife?"

"Why don't you believe the old man who lives downstairs? The old man heard everything. What difference does it make if the old man saw the kid rushing down the stairs, how many seconds did it take him to run to the door?"

"You have no evidence that it wasn't the bastard who escaped from the scene of the killing. You can walk around like a crappy clown, but it doesn't prove that the old man didn't see the bastard. ”

"What about the tram and the movie theater? I'm pretty sure it's all that bastard. I'll bet you 5,000 dollars, and I can remember all the movies and actors I've watched. I tell you, you have distorted all the truth. ”

"And that set of rhetoric about glasses! How do you know she wasn't wearing glasses at the time? The woman testified in court that she saw him kill. I tell you, what I know is the truth!

"Alright. Enough, that's the truth. What do you think? Say it!!!You're a bunch of ruthless bastards, you can't threaten me, I'm going to stick to my ideas. ”

His voice grew lower and lower, and his spirit became more and more fragile, as if it had evoked some hidden pain in his heart. Suddenly took out his wallet, a photo of him and his son, and fell on the table.

"You damn boy, you've ruined your life!"

This hard, rough, and ferocious man tore apart the photo of himself and his son with his hands, as if he had torn all his hopes.

He bit the back of his hand with his mouth, trying not to let himself cry, but the tears flowed uncontrollably.

With tears in his voice, he finally relented with the anger and remorse in his heart, and muttered, "The defendant didn't kill anyone...... He didn't kill anyone......"

Everyone didn't speak, they looked at the man quietly, there were too many thoughts in their hearts, but they couldn't say a word.

The convener stood up again and announced to everyone.

"Now we finally have a consensus. We unanimously agree that the verdict in this case cannot be passed. ”

All the jurors silently put on their coats and left the room quietly.

The stout man was still lying there and didn't move.

Peng Yichen stepped forward, took off his coat from the hanger, and put it on for him with his own hands. It's as if the two people had a life-and-death dispute just now, and it never happened.

Walking down the high steps of the courthouse, a rainbow appeared in the sky, and the heavy rain came and went quickly.

In a room of this courtroom, the controversy about a young life seemed to merge into the endless stream of people in the streets, along with the scattered jurors......
