Chapter VIII: Consent to defenders' applications for new witnesses

The third piece of evidence was Su Sheng's urine test results on the day of his arrest and a timeline for a positive drug urine test.

Huo Ran explained lightly: "The defendant's urine test result was negative, and the time limit for a positive urine test after marijuana administration was 2 hours to 56 hours, that is, the defendant did not take drugs in the 56 hours before the test. ”

There is no artificially speculated motive for killing - the intention to kill because he was knocked into drugs.

The fourth piece of evidence is the WeChat records of Su Sheng and "Yaoyao", provided by the police.

Huo Ran watched the bailiff show the documentary evidence in front of Su Sheng, and clearly saw Su Sheng's expression change suddenly, he turned his head and looked at Huo Ran, his eyes were uneasy, chaotic, embarrassed, and frightened, and his pale lips trembled.

In the screenshot -

Su Sheng: "In the morning, my aunt came to do hygiene, and I bought apples, and I want to eat the rabbit apples you cut." ”

Yao Yao replied for a long time: "Okay, I'll come over later." ”

Then came the last sentence of the screenshot, after 3 hours, Su Sheng said: "The rabbit apple is cuter, I am very happy today!" ”

I also posted a photo of a rabbit apple on the coffee table.

The last piece of evidence is a photo taken by the police in Su Sheng's apartment after the crime, there is a plate on the messy coffee table, the rabbit apple is gone, but there are still peel residues on the plate.

Huo Ran: "From the third piece of evidence, we can know that this person named 'Yaoyao' went to the defendant's apartment on the morning of the incident and used the fruit knife to cut rabbit apples; Yaoyao's fingerprints, but now only the fingerprints of one of the defendants have been detected. If the defendant tried to wipe and hide the traces after the crime, no fingerprints would be left on the knife, and there would not be so many clear fingerprints that only belonged to Su Sheng, so the fingerprints on the knife were obviously more in line with what the defendant said - he stepped on the fruit knife when he went home, and when he picked it up, he left fingerprints. ”

Su Yu let go of his tightly clenched fingers.

The presiding judge asked Qin Yu: "Does the prosecution have any opinions on the evidence?" ”

Qin Yu tightened his cheeks, his face was a little bad, and his tone sank: "Yes, the defender's groundless speculation on the conclusions proved by the evidence is a random guess on the defendant's behavior, and it is not credible. ”

Huo Ran's witness was the aunt who was in charge of cleaning Su Sheng's apartment.

Huo Ran asked her, "What kind of work are you usually responsible for?" How often? ”

Auntie: "Every morning at 8 o'clock, I clean the dishes, mop the floor, change the quilt, etc. ”

"So you only go to the defendant's apartment at 8 a.m. every morning?"

"Yes."

"Do you need to cook?"

Qin Yu narrowed his eyes: "Objection, this issue has nothing to do with this case." ”

Huo Ran's tone was calm: "Presiding Judge, this question is very important. ”

Presiding Judge: "The objection is invalid, and the defender continues to ask questions." ”

"No, Ah Sheng usually eats out or orders takeout, and I only need to be responsible for cleaning the dishes and chopsticks he used the day before yesterday the next morning."

"Does Su Sheng have a habit of washing dishes?"

"No, after he finishes using it, he will keep it until I come to clean it the next day."

Therefore, Su Sheng did not clean the fruit knife after eating the apples and wiped off the traces of 'Yaoyao'.

Qin Yu's heart was beating fast, his eyes were sharp, and he stood up: "Oppose ......"

Before he finished speaking, Huo Ran turned his eyes to look at him, his eyes were quiet like black jade in the silent water, and his eyelashes seemed to be crow feathers: "The person seen by the eyewitness cannot be the defendant logically, in the case that none of the people known have cleaned the knife, the fingerprints on the knife are only the defendant, and there is a lack of 'Yaoyao' who has also touched the knife, which means that the fingerprint evidence is doubtful." ”

There are two possibilities, one is to assume that Su Sheng did kill someone, and after he killed someone, he wiped his fingerprints to cover up his traces, but in this way, he either wiped it clean and left no fingerprints, or left one or two missing fingerprints, and there would not be so many fingerprints now; The second possibility is that Su Sheng was indeed not at home, a third person broke in, killed Xie Suixing, wiped his fingerprints, and Su Sheng went back, accidentally picked up a fruit knife, and reprinted his fingerprints.

The second possibility, which sounds ridiculous.

If Su Sheng is not at home, how can Xie Suixing run to his house? Why did the third person enter Su Sheng's house? Still killed someone in Su Sheng's apartment?

There was an uproar in the auditorium, some people sighed, some people couldn't believe it, and more people were angry.

Xie Suixing's mother completely collapsed, broke her voice, and shouted heartbreakingly: "You lawyers who eat human blood steamed buns!" Come to a sticky end! ”

Qin Yu clenched his fists and was about to say something.

The presiding judge frowned tightly and knocked down the gavel: "No noise!" The bailiff stepped forward and stood in front of the gallery to prevent a riot among relatives and friends.

The presiding judge stiffened his face: "Adjourn the court first, and the prosecutor and defender are invited to the pre-trial conference room." ”

in the conference room.

The presiding judge sat down.

Qin Yu's face was not good, he pursed his thin lips tightly, with a cold expression, and pulled his collar: "Presiding judge, the defender lacks the testimony of 'Yaoyao', and it is still unknown whether 'Yaoyao' has really touched the knife." ”

Huo Ran said seriously: "Presiding judge, I applied to the court for a new witness to appear in court, she is a teacher of B University. ”

Qin Yu sneered: "Even if she really touched the knife, Su Sheng didn't wash the knife or wipe the fingerprints halfway, even if the fingerprints were left by his last grip, then do you mean that there is a third person, and he is the real murderer?" He sneered: "First break into Su Sheng's apartment without a trace, kill someone, and then clean up the fingerprints left on the knife?" And finally leave your defendant with marijuana? And then your defendant is innocent and accidentally picks up a fruit knife as soon as he goes back and reprints his fingerprints? It's probably too much of a coincidence, Lawyer Huo. ”

Huo Ran looked at him, and there was sarcasm in his dark eyes: "That's your job and the police, not me, I'm only responsible for raising reasonable questions, excluding unreasonable evidence, and finding out the reasons for innocence and misdemeanor." ”

"Presiding judge, there is no trace of a third person at the scene! There is also a possibility of fingerprints, that is, Su Sheng finally cleaned up the fingerprint traces, but accidentally left ......"

"The last fingerprints are four, clear, and not carelessly left ......"

The presiding judge was annoyed by the quarrel between the two, and he roared: "Okay, be quiet! ”

Huo Ran: "I'm sorry. ”

Qin Yu took a deep breath and apologized: "I'm sorry." ”

The presiding judge said: "The trial will be adjourned today, and the trial will resume tomorrow, and I will agree to the defense applying for a new witness ......"

Qin Yu was a little anxious: "The chief judge ......"

The presiding judge didn't want to listen anymore, he clapped his decision, and his voice was impatient: "That's it, go out, tomorrow morning at nine o'clock, don't be late." ”

*

At the end of the courtroom corridor, Su Yu was sitting on a bench, the smooth marble floor reflecting the glass window, the slightly cold light, but soft and faint.

She stared straight at the information in front of her.

Although Huo Ran questioned and refuted the evidence, if he really acquitted Su Sheng, he could only find his alibi.

At present, 'Yaoyao' must be Wen Yao.

But who was the person the old professor saw around two o'clock in the morning?
