The plaintiff asks for a first-person witness.

This person was a member of the family of Luo Gongyuan, and according to his statement, he watched the eldest lady at the request of his lord that night and did not let her leave the room.

“…… The second lady's room was diagonally opposite the eldest lady's room, and I stood guard at the door of the eldest lady's room and saw the second lady enter the room with two people...... Not long after, the man hurriedly came out of the second lady's room......"

Lawyer Meng asked the witnesses, "Are the two people you saw these two defendants?" ”

The witness glanced at the defendant's seat, "That's right, it's them." ”

Coriander was drunk and unconscious when she was brought into Luo Youyou's room that night, and she didn't remember the situation very well, so it was difficult to determine whether the family member who testified in court was really at the door of Luo Bing's room that night, as he said.

She thought that Coriander should remember, so she asked in a low voice, "Brother, is he the person opposite Luo Youyou's room that night?" ”

Coriander carefully swept her gaze around the face of the family member twice, "It's him." ”

He nodded in the affirmative, then became confused again.

Why does Cilantro ask that?

Could it be that she suspected that Luo Jun would let people appear in court to give perjury......

With the presiding judge's consent, Coriander asked the witness: "You said that you saw my brother hurriedly coming out of your second lady's room that night, so did you see what my brother brought when he came out?" ”

The witness was stunned when asked, and subconsciously looked at the plaintiff Xi Luojun, and after meeting Luo Jun's cold eyes, he unconsciously cringed, lowered his head and said, "It seems to be ......"

Coriander is pressing step by step. "Yes is yes, no is no, and your vague answer will invalidate your testimony."

"I'm ......" The witness looked at the plaintiff's seat frequently, and after hesitating for a while, he simply closed his eyes and said as if he were open, "I, I don't know." ”

"You don't know, but we all know." Coriander raised her hands and gestured to the position of the two rooms, "The room of the two daughters of my family is only a few steps away, and if you stand guard in front of the door of your eldest lady's room, you will definitely take a picture with my brother who came out of the door of your second lady's room." Did my brother bring anything out. You must be clear at a glance, unless you are standing facing the door of your eldest lady with your back to the second lady. If you were in the room with your back to your second lady, how would you know that the person who came out of your second lady's room at that time was my brother, and I used 'hurry' to describe him. Could it be that you have eyes behind your back? ”

Lawyer Meng stood up suddenly. "I protested. The defendant is messing around! ”

Without waiting for the presiding judge to announce whether the protest was valid. Coriander replied with ease: "Am I messing around, please ask Lawyer Meng and your witnesses to reenact the situation at that time - such a big vase, even if it is not in your hand." Even if it's tucked into the crotch, it's a clear thing! ”

This remark ruined the solemn atmosphere of the trial and caused laughter from the audience.

The four judges also couldn't help laughing, and Judge Jiang coughed softly, as if to warn and hide his laughter.

Hearing the laughter behind him, Lawyer Meng looked back and saw that many people in the lawyer group were grinning stupidly.

Seeing the angry gaze of the teacher, the smiles on their faces froze, and the few who reacted quickly were already sitting upright.

Lawyer Meng was annoyed and pointed the finger at Coriander, "Since you didn't steal, why were you in such a hurry when you came out of Miss Luo's room?" ”

Coriander scratched her head, her whole face flushed like blood, "I've grown so big, I've never been into a girl's room except my sister's room...... I was in Miss Luo Er's room at the time...... I...... I thought it was rude, and I panicked, so I ...... It just so happened that my sister would go out later. ”

Coriander added: "Is there anything wrong with a boy who hasn't even held the hands of other girls other than his sister and feels shy in a beautiful girl's room?" ”

Lawyer Meng gritted his teeth and asked hatefully: "May I ask the defendant, where did you go after you came out of Miss Luo's room?" ”

Coriander truthfully confessed: "I went back to the banquet, I went back to the banquet, and then it didn't take long for me to go home." ”

"Throwing your sister into a stranger's house, and you went back so reassuringly?" He thought that this question would drive the coriander into a dead end, and he couldn't help but feel proud.

Isn't it about human nature? Then he will accompany these two little cubs to the end.

"I also thought about taking my sister home, but my sister's body was not very good when she was small, she was very thin that night, I was afraid that she would catch a cold on the road, so I left her at Luo's house and went back first."

Lawyer Meng sneered at Coriander, his eyes flashed with disdain and mocked coldly, "That's the Luo family, how many people can't ask for it, if you don't be a thief, how can you leave the Luo family so quickly before the banquet is over?" ”

Coriander sneered: "Not everyone is like you, they like to be a pendant on someone's thigh." Lawyer Meng, according to what you said, weren't the people who went to the banquet that day all going to President Luo? In that case, you should be careful when walking at night in the future. ”

Lawyer Meng was annoyed and angry, pointed at coriander's nose, and shouted to the presiding judge: "Protest protest I protest, judge elder, the defendant is threatening me!" ”

Coriander picked at her nails with a faint expression, "I didn't threaten you, I just kindly reminded you." ”

"Stinky girl!"

Presiding Judge Jiang's lawyer issued a warning to lawyer Meng, "In court, please pay attention to the words of the defendant's defense lawyer. ”

Mr. Meng's ancestors were born as lawyers, and in recent years, he has been very active in the legal profession, and he has never been so disorderly in court in the past.

The plaintiff then produced several more cards, one of whom was a maid who often cleaned Miss Luo's room.

She told the court that on the second day after the banquet, the defendant Coriander left Miss Luo Er's room, and as soon as she let her go in to clean it as usual, she did not see the gold vase and the painting.

A doorman of the Luo family testified that when the defendant Coriander left the Luo family. Something was indeed taken away.

Coriander stared at the doorman who testified in court, and suddenly smiled, "Perjury is legally responsible, I don't know what the consequences of instigating others to commit perjury will be?" ”

Presiding Judge Jiang replied: "Whoever uses violence, threats, bribery, or other methods to prevent witnesses from testifying or instructs others to give false testimony shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than three years or short-term detention; where the circumstances are serious, the sentence is between three and seven years imprisonment. ”

Hearing this, Luo Jun's face tightened, and he raised his head to meet the smiling gaze that Cilantro threw at him, and his scalp suddenly went numb for a while.

He felt like a piece of fish in front of coriander, being considered to be fried raw. Or do you have to chop it into a stuffing and stuff it into the dough......

No matter how it will be. He ended up in a complete defeat.

Why does he feel the way he does?

The other party is just a pair of wild boys and wild girls in the countryside, he is the president of the dignified Shanghai Chamber of Commerce, he does not dare to call the power monstrous, and he thinks he can command one party. Such a he. Is it really going to be in this kind of place today?

Luo Jun couldn't help but think. The girl looked at her as if she were looking at her prey. Could it be that he grabbed something?

He quickly denied it, no, no, no, she must be bluffing!

Coriander gestured to Presiding Judge Jiang. "Judge, please show you the only evidence I have presented."

The clerk opened the box that Cilantro handed over before the trial, and the moment he opened the box, he couldn't help but be taken aback when he looked at the contents of the box.

Seeing him look like this, not only the people who were listening were curious, but even the plaintiff's lawyer team looked at each other, wanting to see what was in the box.

The clerk held the box to the presiding judge, "It's a portrait." ”

Is it a portrait?

What kind of portrait?

Could it be the painting that the Lin family brothers and sisters stole from the Locke family?

In the auditorium, many people stood up involuntarily, and even a few people clung to the backs of the seats in front of them, if not, they were afraid that they would not be able to resist the urge to rush over and have a look.

Presiding Judge Jiang personally took out the portrait in the box.

All everyone could see from his hands were white sheets of manuscript paper.

In fact, there is a portrait of a person on every piece of paper, and there is more than one.

In this small box, there are at least two or three hundred sheets.

These things are the result of a three-day retreat with coriander.

Presiding Judge Jiang assigned the portraits to the other judges, and like the people around him, he was puzzled, "Defendant, please explain this evidence." ”

Coriander's little face was full of confidence, and she said wildly in her usual loose tone: "As for me, I don't have any other big skills, and what I am best at is not piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, not farming, but remembering people's faces and names." I only need to see a person once, and if I hadn't deliberately forgotten it, that person's face would have been in my mind forever. ”

"The evidence I presented to the court was drawn over a period of three days, and the people I saw at the Locke house that night, the guests who had attended the banquet with me that night, and the servants of the Locke family. I also made a special mark on some of the portraits," Cilantro's eyes sharpened, and her cold gaze swept towards the doorman who testified in court, with a contemptuous sneer on her lips, "It's really strange, I stayed in the Luo family for one night, and among so many people I have seen, why is there no one with you!" ”

She raised her voice and shouted injustice, "The plaintiff asked someone to give false testimony against our brother and sister, and asked the judge to find out." ”

Judge Jiang exchanged words with the judges on the left and right for a while, and then held up a few portraits in his hand and asked Cilantro: "How can you prove the authenticity of these paintings to us?" ”

"The plaintiff must still have kept a list of the guests who were invited to that dinner, and I don't know most of the guests who were there that night, except I remember their faces. As long as you follow the list and sit down with the portrait, you can know the authenticity at a check. Coriander raised her chin slightly, looking confident, "Otherwise, the judge can test me on the spot, and you can point out anyone present at will, and you can draw his appearance." ”

The presiding judge thought for a moment, "The presiding judge believes that you have this ability," and then he looked at the plaintiff's side, "Does the plaintiff have any questions?" ”

How could Luo Jun let go of such a good opportunity to take the coriander test, discussed it with the lawyer next to him, and finally decided that Lawyer Meng would speak on his behalf.

Lawyer Meng looked very sure that he would be stumped by coriander, and at the same time replied to the presiding judge and made a request. "Judge, we have doubts about the defendant's ability, please allow me to test her personally."

After getting Judge Jiang's answer, he ordered all the members of the lawyers' group to stand up to show the people, and then pointed to the back of one of them, smiling a little proudly, "You don't need to go so far as to draw his appearance, as long as you can describe his facial features to all of us, if you are right, I believe you have this ability." ”

"Actually, you don't need to be afraid of trouble, just make it easier for me." Coriander's words have the flavor of not being afraid of challenges. Of course, there is no lack of provocation.

Even if Lawyer Meng doesn't believe it. She won't change anything about it.

Lawyer Meng probably didn't realize that he was now tantamount to a drowning person, and grabbing on anything was a lifesaver.

Stuck in trouble, how can he force coriander into a dead end?

Cilantro closed her eyes and thought about it. With astonishing memories he described: "The man's earlobes were large and thick in color. Thick eyebrows, thin eyes, and wide forehead. The face is yellow and plump, the nose is plump, the mouth is big, the lips are thick, the corners of the mouth are drooping, and there are blessings but no blessings. It's a pity for that face. ”

Even if the person who was pointed out didn't have to show his face, everyone could see the answer from Lawyer Meng's face like a dead ash.

Coriander passed his test.

This also shows that the doorman who testified in court committed perjury.

When she went to Locke's house for a banquet that night, including when she left Locke's house the next morning, Coriander had never seen him at all, and she suspected that this person might indeed be the doorman of the Locke family, but she was afraid that he had not appeared at Locke's house for two days off.

It's easy to confirm this - find out his details, and then check the duty schedule of the Locke guards.

The other party's appearance in court to commit perjury must not have come out of his own will, and it is self-evident that the person behind the instigation of him is self-evident.

I didn't think that Luo Jun could really do such a thing as instructing others to commit perjury, he could do it, but the funny thing was that he was also exposed by someone, this time he was really embarrassed.

Luo Jun's hole cards were almost all revealed, and he couldn't help the two country hairy children opposite. Especially the little girl who was unusually calm from beginning to end, like his nemesis, no matter what cards he played, she could overpower him.

Lawyer Meng sat in his defense lawyer's position dejectedly, staring at the direction of the defendant's seat, as if he had lost his soul, obviously helpless.

It is said that "three stinkers, one Zhuge Liang", what can he do if he has a whole team of lawyers, is it not that he can't argue with a little girl?

What a bunch of useless rice buckets!

At the end of the trial, the plaintiff said that he would not make any statements.

The words on the final statement that had been prepared in Lawyer Meng's hand were tantamount to a declaration of victory, but they were defeated and retreated like water dogs, and none of them could have expected such an outcome.

Such a statement is really not suitable for such a result.

The defendant coriander said a lot from the bottom of his heart, "...... As soon as my brother and sister arrived in Shanghai, the money they brought with them was stolen, and I was also injured and hospitalized...... After I recovered from my injury, I worked as a dock worker, and now I am a coachman...... No matter how hard and tired our brothers and sisters are, no matter how poor our lives are, we have never stolen anything from others. ”

After some deliberation with several judges, Presiding Judge Jiang announced the result:

"The Court declares ......"

"Wait!"

One person spoke up and cut off Judge Jiang's words.

This person is Luo Jun who is unconvinced.

Luo Jun's complexion turned red, and the muscles in his face spasmed like cramps.

He was angry and hateful, and his scarlet eyes seemed to devour the Lin family brothers and sisters to the point that there was not even a slag left.

Presiding Judge Jiang asked, "Does the plaintiff have any questions?" ”

"If you want to bring me down Luo Jun, it's not that easy!" Now that he has torn his face, where will he still take care of his image in front of everyone. He snatched the statement copy from Lawyer Meng's hand and threw it in the direction of the defendant's seat.

With a bang, the paper flew out of the dock and landed lightly under the corner of the table.

Luo Jun was not relieved, and immediately picked up the nameplate of the plaintiff's defense lawyer in front of Lawyer Meng, rounded his arm, and smashed the nameplate towards the defendant's seat.

With ten percent of his strength, the nameplate flew out of his hand, and fell to the position in front of the dock with a thud, shattering in two.

Everyone saw his ugliness in their eyes, and many people had schadenfreude on their faces.

The image of President Luo as a gentleman in the past no longer exists, and now he is just a lost dog, which is spurned.

Judge Jiang looked solemn. Ring the gavel to warn Luo Jun, "Plaintiff, please pay attention to your behavior!" ”

"My daughter-" Luo Jun raised his hand, pointed to the plaintiff's seat, and said loudly, "My daughter saw them with her own eyes-"

Coriander ruthlessly interrupted him, "President Luo, I advise you to save some snacks and think about what the consequences of your actions will be next." ”

Coriander could somewhat perceive that Luo Jun was going to let his daughter testify in court for him. And it's a false testimony. When he thought of Luo Youyou standing here and being looked at, he felt extremely uncomfortable, so he persuaded Luo Jun and said, "Mr. Luo, you don't care about your reputation. Think about your daughter...... too."

Luo Jun was like crazy about gain and loss. The whole person became hysterical. There was a smile on his distorted face that couldn't tell whether it was confidence or smugness.

"What, scared?"

Which eye did he see that the Lin family brothers and sisters were scared?

If he wants to keep his eyes open and take a good look, he will be able to see it in the eyes of his brother and sister...... Commiseration!

Parsley hugged her arms. With a bleak expression, "If a witness has relatives, neighbors, grievances, or interests with one of the parties, and has motives to maintain family affection, friendship, repay gratitude, or vent anger, etc., it will lead to the unreliability of his testimony -- didn't the lawyer next to you tell you about such a thing?" ”

Luo Jun looked at the stammering lawyer Meng and secretly cursed something useless.

"Plaintiff," Judge Jiang's voice came, "do you still need to show your witness next?" ”

Luo Jun gritted his teeth, and it was difficult to make a decision for a while.

Judge Jiang's death-knell-like voice sounded again, repeating the question just now.

Luo Jun is like a beast that is dormant in the dark waiting for an opportunity to move, and the girl can always press all the cards he played unexpectedly, but the game has not yet dispersed, and he still has a trump card in his hand, but he does not dare to show it at will.

He was afraid, afraid that Coriander would puncture the fake card in his hand again, and then his daughter's reputation would be as ruined as that of President Luo.

He doesn't want to be defeated here!

If he loses here today, the entire Shanghai market will know that he Luo Jun is a loser, and they will also know why he failed!

was defeated by a yellow-haired boy and a yellow-haired girl, he was really unwilling, and it was difficult to swallow this breath!

Tuk Tuk Tuk -

The sound of familiar footsteps rang back, tearing back his distantly chaotic thoughts.

Luo Jun looked up in a daze, and his vision blurred by sweat gradually became clear, which also allowed him to see clearly the person who walked towards the witness stand.

Dressed in a white knee-length dress, with long flaxen hair slightly curled, amber eyes calmly staring straight ahead, and no expression on her delicate face, people who came unconsciously thought that she was God's best masterpiece.

If there are really angels in this world, it is probably Luo Youyou.

Her beauty is rare in the world, and it is even more thrilling at the moment.

The moment he saw the person who came, Luo Jun's heart was full of fear.

Did he say that he would let his daughter testify in court?

Did you say that?

He must have been possessed by the devil, otherwise why wouldn't he remember what he said?

"Youyou......" was illuminated by the holy light emanating from Luo Youyou's body, Luo Jun's expression gradually softened, his mood calmed down a lot, and the whole person seemed to be purified.

Luo Youyou's appearance suddenly made him happy, and there was still a trace of luck in his heart:

Maybe things will turn around.

Unlike Luo Jun, who pinned all his hopes on Luo Youyou, Coriander looked at Luo Youyou who walked into the witness stand, and her face couldn't bear to be full of pity.

After looking at the coriander for a while, the coriander withdrew her gaze.

Coriander's thoughts about Luo Youyou were all written on her face.

Coriander felt a taste in her heart that she didn't know whether it was sour or sweet, just like the mentality of a mother marrying her daughter.

My brother has finally grown up.

Coriander slowly raised her hands, "Lord Judge, we ...... The defendant pleaded guilty to losing the case. ”

What the!?

The audience was in an uproar.

Ma Feng in the auditorium was shocked and angry, "What the hell is this girl doing!?" ”

Obviously there is only one step away from the final victory!

Hawkers, Fujihiko is not so surprised, he is not the first day to know the petty nature of coriander, she will always make surprising choices.

Wait, he's still mad at her!

Fujihiko subconsciously suppressed the corners of his lips that were unconsciously raised, and if he stared at it again, it would really look like a second general.

Rong Yan muttered, "It doesn't matter. ”

Winning or losing is important, but now that their goal has been achieved, after this case, Luo Jun's reputation will be ruined. This is already the same as they initially expected.

The presiding judge and the judges all looked at the coriander who admitted that they had lost the case in shock, and before the presiding judge Jiang could confirm it, a burst of miserable and private laughter suddenly broke out in the plaintiff's seat.

"Hahaha-did you hear that, did you hear it!" Luo Jun couldn't stop laughing hysterically, tears welled up in the corners of his eyes, and he couldn't breathe, "They automatically admit defeat!" (To be continued.) )
