1128 Bottom Draw Tactics
"Mr. Mitchell, you think you've won? Couldn't be more wrong, because you've managed to get yourself into a bottomless swamp, and you want to see our evidence? No problem, sign this document first, it's a non-disclosure agreement, and in short, everything you see here today, you have to keep your mouth shut, or you'll be charged with treason! And the same goes for both of you. ”
After Gray finished speaking gloomily, Mitchell and the three of them thought about it, and still signed the documents with great backbone, and then Jin Shanshan, under Gray's instructions, quickly asked her subordinates to send three boxes of documents, and then Mitchell and the others rummaged through this small inquiry room.
For a moment, only the sound of papers could be heard in the inquiry room, and when Mitchell and the others went to work, Gray and Jin Shanshan watched coldly, Hou Rui, who was very nervous, shrunk back in his chair, biting his nails and muttering in a low voice, looking overly frightened.
Time flew by, and after about an hour, Mitchell and the others finally raised their heads from the mountain of papers, with a hint of smugness on their faces, looked at Jin Shanshan and Gray and said:
"I see, there are two main pieces of evidence for your arrest of my client, one is DNA evidence, and the other is as many as four eyewitnesses, all of whom can prove that my client was present at the Fort Knox National Vault, the Black Hawk helicopter, and the Louisville Army Hospital on the day of the "Double Flash" incident, right?"
"Basically, but to be more detailed, the DNA evidence also points to nine previous violent attacks involving a series of more than 100 victims in seven countries. Jin Shanshan had memorized all the data a long time ago, and now even in front of Hou Rui, she could only narrate it once.
However, in the face of Jin Shanshan's accusations, Hou Rui's reaction was like a helpless child, repeating: "I don't, I really don't have ......"
Seeing Hou Rui's pitiful appearance, Mitchell rolled his eyes, and immediately pointed at Hou Rui and shouted: "I suspect that my client has been seriously stimulated and induced psychological trauma, so I now request that my client be given necessary treatment and psychological counseling, and I ask a third-party medical institution to intervene." ”
"Hmph! It's impossible, it's an exception to let you into this building, not to mention medical care until it's over, even the three of them don't want to walk out easily. It's a pity that Gray, who doesn't eat this set, coldly pushes Mitchell back.
"Do you believe it or not, I'm going to sue you for death. ”
"Save your breath!"
"You ......"
Mitchell, who eats by mouth, really met Gray, who was determined to play tricks, there was really nothing he could do, although Mitchell shouted loudly, but he himself understood that he was simply powerless for some small actions of the joint investigation team, some gray practices between legal and illegal, it was easy to prosecute, but it was difficult to get a trial that was favorable to Mitchell himself.
Mitchell, who had long been accustomed to dealing with these federal agencies, immediately changed his mind and decided to turn the page back to the analysis of the team's evidence: "Well, my client is strong, and I'm sure he can wait a few more hours for us to continue talking about the evidence." ”
As he spoke, this Mitchell didn't forget to glance at Hou Rui with encouraging eyes, but he only cared about his whispering Hou Rui.
"Very good, you have read all the information now, is there anything else you want to say?" Jin Shanshan asked gloomily.
"First question, at least 20 hours have passed since you arrested my client, so have you conducted a DNA test on him?" But Mitchell looked at Gray this time to ask questions, as if he didn't want to entangle with Jin Shanshan.
"Of course. But Gray only smiled contemptuously.
"And what is the result? Is it consistent with the sample in your evidence? Why don't I see this part of the information?" Mitchell, who was impassive, continued to ask, and after he finished asking the question, the other two lawyers sitting on the side also nodded their heads, indicating that they were the same, and did not find this information.
"For the time being...... It hasn't come out yet, and we'll add it as soon as it comes out. The smile on Gray's face suddenly became a little stiff.
But just when Jin Shanshan vaguely sensed that something was wrong and couldn't help but glance at Gray, Mitchell didn't chase after Gray, and easily let go of this obvious flaw, but continued to ask with a normal face: "Then my second question is, according to these records, you have a total of four witnesses, so when do you plan to arrange the identification procedure?"
"It's planned for tomorrow. At this time, Jin Shanshan replied, but a huge question mark appeared in her heart, why did Gray's expression suddenly become stiff just now, is there anything else in this that he doesn't know?
"It seems that you had better advance it, because I feel that after the process of identifying people, your entire conclusion will be overturned, and the facts will prove that my client is innocent. Mitchell insisted.
"This is impossible, the portrait we wanted is based on a puzzle of several eyewitnesses. Seeing Gray's thoughtful look, Jin Shanshan could only stand up again and defend her analysis results.
"Dear Miss Analyst, you may not understand the way we Americans think, for us, Chinese Americans are all black hair, yellow skin, small eyes, other than that there is basically no difference between you, even if you recognize the wrong person, it is a common occurrence, not worth making a fuss. ”
“……”
"Another point, because the DNA test you did before, because there was no supervision of our defense lawyer, let alone the intervention of a third-party agency, no matter what the result is, it will naturally be invalidated, and I ask for another test and a new sample in front of us. Mitchell, who gradually began to take the initiative, soon made his new demands to the side of the mission.
"We ...... It will be arranged as soon as possible, I just hope that after this inspection, you can obediently shut your mouth, don't bother us again, and let us do our job. Gray, who had been patient for a long time, shouted at Mitchell with a menacing look.
"These things, let's wait for you to arrange them, maybe the result will be diametrically opposite, you will want me to take Mr. Hou Rui away with dignity. After saying it confidently, Mitchell waved his hand like a fly, and said to Gray and Jin Shanshan:
"Okay, now I'm going to talk to my client privately, and I know it's in vain that I'm asking you to turn off the surveillance system, but I need to remind you that even if you record the conversation between me and my client, you can't use it as evidence in court or for subsequent charges. ”
At this moment, Hou Rui also broke out again very cooperatively, because his hands and feet were restricted by iron chains and could not make too large movements, but Hou Rui slammed his forehead into the iron chain on the table, and the blood naturally came out in an instant, and Hou Rui also shouted loudly at the same time:
"As long as I can prove my innocence, whatever you do to do the test, the DNA test is not, this is my blood, just take it, go to the acceptance, go to the test! If it's not enough, I still have it, take it! Touch, take it! Touch it......
"That's enough! Stop, that's enough, oh my God, Mr. Hou you have to stop hurting yourself right now. A room full of people, Mitchell was actually the first to react, but Jin Shanshan on the side could only grit her teeth and remain motionless, helplessly watching Mitchell take out her handkerchief and cover the wound on Hou Rui's forehead.
Next, Mitchell's three handkerchiefs from the three lawyers, and then the reluctance of the security guard's portable first aid kit, finally helped Hou Rui stop the bleeding, and then Mitchell handed a blood-stained handkerchief to Gray, and by the way, made a gesture towards the door.
Looking at the proud Mitchell, the forbearant Gray could only shake his head at Jin Shanshan, reached out and felt an evidence bag from his pocket, put the blood-stained handkerchief in it, and left the inquiry room with four security personnel, and then before the door was completely closed, Mitchell hooked his finger at Hou Rui, and then the two approached and turned to whisper in Chinese.
The situation is the same as Mitchell's guess, in the observation room next door to the inquiry room, behind the one-way mirror, several analysts of the joint investigation team, they have been observing Hou Rui, Mitchell and others every move, word and deed, and then they watched Mitchell keep asking questions, while Hou Rui showed all kinds of resistance, anger and collapse.
However, when the analysts of the joint investigation team were at a loss and had to use their limited knowledge of Chinese to try to understand the meaning of every word in the conversation between the two, Rui's heart was calm at this time, and compared with the anxiety and grievances he showed on the outside, it formed a huge contrast.
Sitting in front of him at this moment, Hou Rui can basically conclude that he is not a member of the organization, but he is an experienced and cunning lawyer, since he has come up and bites the main evidence of the investigation team, it shows that he has a great degree of certainty that he can break the fundamental evidence of the investigation team.
