Xingchen handed over the collected information to various media reporters, and distributed a large number of them on online platforms such as Weibo and Weibo to create public opinion to exert pressure, and I believe that judges will always have concerns about public opinion. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Fei Yingli's team of lawyers has extensive experience in handling similar publicity efforts, and they have long-standing relationships with editors in major media outlets. As long as you spend a little money to invite these uncrowned kings to a meal and stuff a red envelope, you can see an article in the newspaper the next day with a headline like "Revealing the shady scenes of the police organization".

These are all lace news that ordinary people like to see, and they will be widely disseminated without adding fuel to the fire.

In the rice flower TV station, the special effects producer was processing a program video, and a man with a mosaic on his face said to the camera lens in a mechanically synthesized voice: "That policeman is too much, obviously kicking people, and saying that he didn't mean anything, it's simply the underworld, what kind of police, such an interrogation method, I think eighty percent will be beaten into a trick." ”

"Is it really okay?" the deputy editor-in-chief cautiously asked the director of the TV station, "Is it too early to choose a team station now?"

"It's okay, I'll carry what happened!" The director of the station was full of confidence, and he was thinking that broadcasting this episode of the program could increase the ratings of the station by a few percentage points.

Ever since Twilight livestreamed the reality mystery show on a TV show, no episode has been able to surpass that ratings.

The director thought to himself: "You can also be an associate editor-in-chief, the icing on the cake is not as good as sending charcoal in the snow, this time the odds of winning here are quite high, if you are tied up with him, then you don't have to worry about criminal investigation programs in the future." ”

In addition, Xingchen also mobilized human rights protection organizations to distribute leaflets and display slogans in the streets to further expand the impact of the situation.

All of the above is done by the stars, and the auxiliary work is completed. When going to court, the key is to be able to produce substantive evidence.

For this reason, Xingchen specially came to the coffee shop in Pingcang, Rice Park, and said to the clerk inside: "Hello, please give me a cup of coffee milk." ”

The clerk skillfully brewed a cup of coffee, added milk, stirred well, and handed it to Xingchen.

After a sip of coffee milk, Xingchen took out a bareheaded photo of Pingcang from his pocket and showed it to the clerk, "At about 2 o'clock in the afternoon on the day of the gas station murder last year, this one in the photo should have bought coffee here, right?"

"I said it before, I don't remember! It was so long ago, who remembers?"

From the occurrence of the case, to the arrest of Pingcang, to the police coming to investigate the clues, there has been a gap of many months, and it is impossible for a normal person to remember clearly, just like you will not remember what the first person you saw on the street yesterday morning looked like.

Expecting this to be the answer, Xingchen changed the question and said, "There should be a record in the cash register data, right?"

Judges believe in physical evidence more than witnesses.

"Yes, there were customers who did buy coffee at 2 p.m. that day, because this was the only cup of coffee that day. The clerk saw that Xingchen was still a child, so he explained patiently in a gentle tone.

"Then you should have some impression, after he bought the coffee, he sat on that bench almost all day, and has been admiring the flowers, you should have an impression!" Xingchen pointed to a bench not far in front of the commissary, and said in a slightly bewitching voice: "Mr. Saito Hiroya, the human brain is very incredible, and the things that you think you don't remember are actually hibernate in the depths of the brain, and then you will suddenly wake up because of some kind of opportunity, as if flying out of a drawer." ”

Before Xingchen looked for this Saito clerk, he investigated his background information clearly.

"You should know that this case is very much concerned! Because of your righteous testimony, this innocent young man may be able to avenge his wrongs, and you are the only one in the world who can save him. ”

People have weaknesses, and as long as you prescribe the right medicine, it won't be a problem to conquer Saito.

This case has been widely concerned, and it is inconvenient for Xingchen to use money offensive, so he played the emotional card and said: "People say that saving others is saving themselves, and the wife and daughter who are separated from you may also come to the court to observe." Why don't you wonder how much the two of them would make a difference to you if you were to stand on the testimony stand, bravely speak the truth, and expose the atrocities of the prosecutors and the police?"

Hearing the bait thrown by the stars, Saito closed his eyes as if he was engaged in a psychological struggle, as if he was trying to remember.

Seeing this, Xingchen further continued, "How is it, Mr. Saito, do you remember anything?"

Saito groaned for a while, and finally made up his mind: "Actually, I remember that there was indeed such a person who came to buy coffee that day, and I said the same thing to the police, but the police flatly denied it, and insisted that I was wrong!"

This record did not appear in the investigation report, and Xingchen knew that it was the work of the Shirai Police Department without guessing.

Now that Saito has relented, it is only natural to ask him to testify in court, and the rest can be handled by professionals, who will teach Saito what to say and what not to say in court.

Successfully getting the witness Saito, all this seems simple, but in fact, Xingchen has done his homework, not only investigating his social relationships, family members, but also his personality.

Hiroshi Saito is also a coward, and listening to what others say is what it is, that is, wall grass in the general sense. To deal with this kind of person, let him unconsciously step into the pace he designed.

On the day of the trial of the Pingcang appeal, hundreds of media reporters with photographic equipment gathered in front of the courthouse.

"Are you nervous, Xingchen?" asked Yingli, who was accompanying Xingchen to attend.

"As my first court appearance after getting my lawyer's license, the audience was barely good. Xingchen took the last sip of coffee milk, tossed the empty bottle into the recyclable trash can, and strode towards the courthouse.

Today, Xingchen wore a black suit, flat glasses, wiped hair wax on his head, and combed his big back, looking a lot more mature.

At the door of the court, after greeting reporters from all walks of life, and saying that justice will win, and Pingcang will be returned to justice and freedom, Xingchen walked into the courtroom and officially began his first defense work as a lawyer.

"Now for the trial. ”

With the presiding judge's words, the defence counsel and the audience in the gallery stood up and bowed, and then took their seats.

First of all, lawyer Sugiura asked the suspect Tsubokura, "Are you often called for being dull, stupid, and idiot?"

"Yes. "Tsubokura stood in the middle of the courtroom, Nono said.

"And how are you feeling?" Sugiura continued.

"Of course it's going to be annoying. Tsubokura said truthfully.

Long before going to court, Xingchen instructed Pingcang to tell everything he knew as the truth, because experienced judges are no less capable of reasoning than detectives, and they can find flaws in the clues.

"In the face of the lawyer's cross-examination, he asks a question, you answer, remember not to talk too much, let alone think from the other party's point of view, answer the questions you don't know, don't make unnecessary guesses. ”

Although Tsubokura is usually silent, Xingchen still wants to minimize the possibility of a small probability event.

"You admit that you said I was going to kill you, right?" Attorney Seiura's question began to sharpen a bit.

"Yes. Pingcang just said these two words in a calm tone, without making too many quibbles, because Xingchen had already told him how to answer such questions.

If Tsubokura then gives an emotional explanation, he will be interrupted by lawyer Seiura, "My question is over", which will leave the impression of a grumpy temper in the eyes of the judge.

Professional things will be left to professional people, and since Pingcang chose Xingchen as his defense lawyer, he can rest assured that all the debates will be handled by Xingchen.

Lawyer Sugiura's method of questioning Tyokura from the motive for the murder did not surprise Xingchen, and after he finished asking questions, he saw Xingchen slowly and methodically take out the prepared materials from the file bag and make a statement at the beginning of the courtroom.

"Reina Ishizaki, a college student in Nakano Ward, and her boyfriend quarreled for three days, and I don't know how many times I told each other that I was going to kill you. There is also a self-employed Yamamura Kazuya, who got drunk at an izakaya and got into an argument with someone, and said, "I'm going to kill you if you talk about this!" Housewife Madam Yukie Okubo said to die just because her husband made a boring joke!"

"According to the opinion of the prosecutor's office, all of them once had murderous intentions, but in reality, none of them committed homicide, because people who really have murderous intentions will never shout that I want to kill you. ”

These materials were collected by the followers of the Twilight faction from the community self-government association (commonly known as the neighborhood committee), and the three people listed by Xingchen were of different occupations and ages, and Xingchen's reasoned examples were obviously more convincing than the random speculation of Seiura without clear evidence.

"Mr. Pingkura, the store manager Hayashida has scolded you many times, saying that he will fire you. But every time I scold you, after a few days, I will definitely call and say, 'Hurry up and come to work for me,' right?" Xingchen asked Pingcang.

"Yes. ”

"What kind of feelings do you have for Mr. Hayashida like this?"

"I am very grateful to him. ”

"In other words, you just have feelings of gratitude, respect, and trust, and you have never really had a murderous intention, right?"

"Yes. ”

"Mr. Hayashi Tian has invited you to his house for dinner many times, do you have help with the cooking?"

"There was a help every time. ”

"Then it's natural to leave fingerprints on the knife, but it's strange if you don't. ”

Xingchen gave a reasonable explanation for the police's so-called motive for the murder in a few words, and all the conversations between him and Pingcang were rehearsed in advance, and even the tone and demeanor of the answer Xingchen carefully studied before letting Pingcang practice.

successfully cracked the first round of attacks by the accusing lawyer, Xingchen concluded: "Occasionally, I love my juniors harshly and take care of my seniors. and the juniors who admire such seniors incomparably, the relationship between these two jumps in front of them. ”

The first round of trial is over, with a 10-minute break in between, and the second round of trial begins.

"Shirai Police Department, Pingcang said that you kicked the chair he was sitting on, tripped him up, and intimidated him, is there such a thing?" Facing the Shirai Police Department, which has turned several times his age, Xingchen's immature face does not show the slightest stage fright.

"There is no basis for this. The Shirai Police Department said in a righteous manner: "In our police station, the door of the interrogation room is always open, so as not to make it a secret room as much as possible. If you threaten him, the whole floor will hear it. ”

Although he had expected such an answer from the Shirai Police Department, Xingchen asked, "But Tsubokura said that the door to the interrogation room was closed at the time. ”

"Maybe I'm mistaken!" said Shirai stiffly.

Knowing that the Shirai Police Department couldn't let go easily, it wasn't meaningless for Xingchen to do this.

The court will record all the questions and answers of everyone during the trial in writing, and it may be possible to find flaws in them and decide the final direction of the case.

Xingchen then asks the same question to the three police officers in Shirai's collection, and receives the following answers.

"From the criminal police section where we work, you can always see the situation in the interrogation room, and the door of the interrogation room must have been open that day. ”

"If there was violence or intimidation, people would have noticed, but it was very quiet that day. ”

"The interrogation of the police department was always like that, and there was no sound that day. ”

Sugiura, the plaintiff's lawyer, defended Shirai: "The Shirai Police Department has done a very good job in the Metropolitan Police Department, and he is a famous criminal police officer known as a master of interrogation, and until now, there has never been a problem with his handling methods. He has always been a role model for his colleagues to learn from. ”

Xingchen snorted coldly in his heart, those corrupt officials who stole tens of billions of dollars from the country, before they were caught, none of them were righteous Ling Ran, and maybe even the day before they were arrested, they were still boasting about anti-corruption and honesty in public.

At the end of the questioning of the suspects Pingcang and Shirai Police Department, Xingchen and lawyer Seiura were tied, and neither side provided substantive evidence.

If the situation continues to develop like this, Xingchen can expect that the person who loses in the end must be himself, because as long as the judge of the public procuratorate and law wants to continue to mix in the system, it is impossible to slap himself.

However, Xingchen still has a trump card, which is Saito, the clerk at the commissary.

The third round of trial begins.

Xingchen asked Saito, who was standing on the witness stand, "Mr. Saito." On the day of the crime, at around 2 p.m., in the kiosk of Rice Flower Park, which was more than 15 kilometers away from the scene of the crime, do you remember the people who came to buy coffee?"

"Yes. Saito replied in a firm tone.

"That person, is that person in our courtroom today?"

"Yes!"

"Who is that person?"

"It's him. Saito stretched out his hand and pointed to Tsubokura in the dock.

There was an uproar in the courtroom, and everyone knew what this answer meant for this high-profile trial.

The presiding judge struck the gavel and signaled for silence.

Hearing this satisfactory answer, Xingchen had a smug smile on his face, he knew that the overall situation had been decided, and the scale of victory had been completely tilted towards his side.
