The clerk's voice was loud: "Please all stand up, and invite the presiding judge and judges to enter the courtroom." ”
"Please ask the bailiff to bring the defendant Xie Shen to court."
The presiding judge sat down, her right hand slowly grasped the gavel, the strength of her hand tightened little by little, and after a moment of silence, her chest rose and fell shallowly, and her eyes were raised.
The courtroom fell silent, and everyone held their breath as the judge read out the verdict.
"After deliberation by the collegial panel in this case, a judgment opinion has been formed. This court held that the evidence accusing the defendant Xie Shen of intentional injury causing death was insufficient, and the verdict in this case was as follows: the defendant Xie Shen was not guilty. If they are not satisfied with this judgment, they may appeal through this court or directly to the Intermediate People's Court of City B within 10 days from the second day of receiving the judgment. ”
The green tendons on Xie Shen's forehead burst out, he slowly closed his eyes, his face tensed, and the corners of his eyes seemed to have a flash of silver light.
Huo Ran's eyes were cold and dark, and there were almost no emotional fluctuations.
Sheng Wan's mother in the auditorium stood up suddenly, her eyes widened, her eyes were full of anger, and her voice was sharp: "He killed my daughter, why don't you go to jail?" There is a shady court and I am not satisfied with this trial, my poor daughter...... She died like this, but the murderer got away with it, and she didn't have to bear any responsibility......"
She roared, suddenly turned her gaze, stared at Su Yu, her expression was a little hideous, she suddenly pounced on Su Yu, stretched out her finger and was about to grab Su Yu's face.
"You black-hearted lawyers, insatiable, you exonerate murderers, you are not human! Why don't you die as a bad lawyer! ”
Su Yu was standing next to the aisle, she was shocked, and when she reacted, she had already been knocked down by Sheng Wan's mother, she fell on the chair, and the slightly thick figure of the middle-aged woman was pressed down.
Sheng Wan's mother was like crazy, punching and kicking Su Yu and pulling her hair.
The body hurts hotly.
Su Yu subconsciously raised his arm to cover his cheek, but his arm was hit hard several times by Sheng Wan's mother.
Sheng Wan's mother completely relied on the brute force of doing farm work all year round, and she was violent and undisciplined, but not suddenly
Su Yu just wanted to fight back, Sheng Wan's mother was suppressed by the bailiffs who rushed over from the trial area, Sheng Wan's mother's eyes were crazy scarlet, her body was imprisoned, she couldn't move, she had a hideous face, and spat violently: "Okay, I'll just say why your lawyer refuses to give me compensation, it turns out that you took the money to buy off the judge!" Officials protect each other, this is to force our people to death, I want to petition and let the Supreme Court call the shots for me! ”
Su Yu lowered her arm and wanted to stand up, but the pain in her wrist was involved, and she slightly twisted her brow.
In the next second, he was picked up by a pair of slender hands.
Huo Ran's body was full of familiar cold aura, and he bent down slightly, and took her whole person into his arms.
Su Yu raised his eyes and saw his clear black eyes, full of cold air, wrapped in a cold wind, staring at her tightly.
He's angry.
He swept over Su Yu's face without saying a word, a dazzling red mark was scratched by her nails on her forehead, and his gaze became a few degrees colder.
Huo Ran hugged Su Yu tightly, he looked away, and landed coldly on Sheng Wan's mother, who was escorted by the bailiff, without a trace of warmth.
Sheng Wan's mother subconsciously shuddered, and the words that had not yet finished the insult were stuck in her throat in an instant, as if she had lost her voice, and she couldn't say anything.
Huo Ran retracted his gaze coldly, hugged Su Yu, and strode out of the courtroom.
Old Xie shouted Huo Ran from behind: "Lawyer Huo." ”
Huo Ran's footsteps didn't stop for a moment, Su Yu lay in his arms, looking up from her gaze, she could only see his cold and cold chin.
Su Yu gently grabbed Huo Ran's arm and said softly, "Elder Xie is calling you." ”
Huo Ran's chest rose and fell, calming down, his dark eyes glanced at Su Yu, hugged her and turned around, his expression was cold.
Xie Lao was helped by a bodyguard in a black suit and walked in front of Huo Ran, and next to him stood Xie Shen's wife, Mrs. Xie Shen's eyelids were red and swollen, and tears were dripping from the corners of her eyes.
Even Xie Lao, his eyes were a little red, and his voice was so excited that he choked up, and then he restrained himself: "Okay, good!" is worthy of Qi Xihua's apprentice! After Ah Shen's formalities are completed and he leaves the detention center, I will ask Ah Shen to apply for you to have a meal and make friends with Ah Shen, you are all people in the legal circle, and it is good for each other to communicate more! ”
Huo Ran didn't say anything.
Old Xie glanced at Su Yu in Huo Ran's arms: "How is Miss Su?" The old lady Sheng just now moved too fast, and the bodyguards didn't have time to stop her. ”
How could the bodyguards not have time to stop them?
The curvature of Huo Ran's lips seemed to be nothing, he stared at Su Yu with lowered eyes, and said to Xie Lao: "I'm sorry, I'm going to take her to the hospital to have a look." ”
When he had finished speaking, he strode away.
The black car started, Su Yu sat in the passenger seat, Huo Ran's eyebrows were cold, and the thin winter sun fell on his face, making his nose high and his lips thin.
His slender fingers were on the steering wheel, he turned it, looked in the rearview mirror, slowly reversed, and drove onto the road.
Su Yu turned his face sideways to look at him and said softly, "I'm fine, don't take me to the hospital." ”
Huo Ran's expression became colder, his side face was smooth, he looked ahead and said, "Go to the hospital and have a look." ”
Su Yu stopped talking, a shallow smile appeared on her lips, and it was fleeting, she knew that Huo Ran was angry because she was beaten.
However, in that situation at that time, no one could have predicted that Sheng Wan's mother would suddenly be in trouble.
Xie Lao's bodyguard could react immediately, but after all, he was the bodyguard of the Xie family, and he still had to listen to Xie Lao's orders......
Su Yu was silent, suddenly turned his head, and his voice was very soft: "Originally, the police set up a bureau to find more evidence of Xie Lao's crime, so now, has Xie Lao noticed something?" ”
She feared undermining the police investigation.
Huo Ran's black eyes were like water, and he said lightly: "That's a matter of the police, one case is one case, whether Xie Shen killed Sheng Wan and whether Xie Lao committed the crime of smuggling, these are two completely unrelated cases, but in order to solve Xie Lao's case, the police chose to conceal the key evidence of Xie Shen's case, regardless of whether they would wronged Xie Shen, this is unfair to Xie Shen, and it is also unfair to the law, procedural justice is the only justice we can see, but they completely undermine procedural justice and jointly use the power of the state, To weave lie after lie. Perhaps in the eyes of the police and the prosecutors, Xie Shen is not innocent, and they may also have evidence of Xie Shen's participation in the smuggling of the Xie Group, they think that Xie Shen deserves his crimes, he is innocent of death, and it doesn't matter if he goes to prison, but what crimes can only correspond to the crimes he should correspond to, and what crimes should also have his corresponding trials, but the police for their own efficiency, they confused two unrelated crimes together, and put everyone together with their self-righteous truth. ”
Oh, yes.
Su Yu looked at the subtle spots of light that were refracted through the windshield.
She didn't know if Xie Shen had killed Sheng Wan, but the current evidence really couldn't prove that Xie Shen had killed someone, not to mention that the police had deliberately concealed the evidence. Once evidence is concealed, it is like torture to extract confessions and falsify evidence, undermining procedural justice and making the whole trial a joke.
Huo Ran continued: "The existence of lawyers is also to maintain procedural justice and ensure the fairness of the trial. Regardless of whether a criminal suspect has committed a crime or not, the focus of the lawyer's debate is not whether he committed a crime, but whether the current evidence can legally prove that he committed a crime, whether the evidence is derived from torture, whether there are doubts, and whether it conforms to the logical chain...... Even if these legal evidence can prove that he has committed a crime, what the lawyer still needs to review is whether his crime corresponds to this crime, and whether his crime corresponds to these punishments. This is the fairness and justice that we can see. ”
When he arrived at a red light, the speed of the car slowed down, Huo Ran said: "It's still the same sentence, no one has the eye of God, no one can see the real truth, everyone can only speculate the truth from the evidence, and once the evidence is forged, concealed and other problems, we are getting farther and farther away from the truth, no one knows the real murderer, no one knows whether the innocent person has been wronged." ”
"If we would rather kill 10,000 by mistake than let go of one, then this society will be completely finished, and everyone may become the next innocent lamb. The police's actions are for short-term gain, undermining long-term police credibility, and if the public knows that the police will conceal evidence, no matter how many reasons he has, it will only increase the public's suspicion of the police. ”
Su Yu's eyelashes fluttered slightly, and he bent his lips.
Huo Ran was right.
But she still couldn't hold back in her heart, and sighed softly, but unfortunately, Xie Shen's case was closed like this, I don't know if it would startle the snake, make Xie Lao realize something, and then let the police's efforts in half a year come to naught.
"Actually, maybe the police really don't know whether Sheng Wan committed suicide or homicide, the evidence is indeed very weird, you also said, except for God, no one knows the truth, Xie Shen is the most suspected, the police handed him over to the procuratorate with the current evidence, let the procuratorate prosecute, let the court conduct a trial, there is nothing wrong, it's just that you just happened to find out that the criminal police team has an operation to investigate Xie Lao's smuggling...... Xie Lao's smuggling case is a big one......"
She laughed and said, "If I were a judge, I would have to be angry with you, your tone is so unkind, and besides, you have adopted a label, which may have been a decision made by a policeman, but you have classified him as a collective act." ”
Huo Ran's dark eyes deepened a little, and he smiled: "Huh? Teach me a lesson? He accepted the criticism very calmly, "This is a defense strategy, and I am not for justice, I am just for winning, and this kind of label is the most likely to provoke anger." ”
Su Yu's voice was very soft: "There are good and bad in every industry, there are still many good people in the police, and some things cannot be counted as collective behavior...... If this is the case, I have handled unjust, false and wrongly decided cases, can I seal that the procurators have handled unjust, false and wrongly decided cases? ”
Huo Ran smiled even deeper: "Well, I know." ”
Su Yu rolled his eyes, "By the way, how did you find the suicide note?" ”
"Mrs. Xie Shen gave it, she found it in the room." Huo Ran was silent, "She's very different...... However, she really wanted to save Xie Shen from ......"
The red light turned to a green light, Huo Ran turned the steering wheel and continued to move forward, the black car blended into the traffic, and Su Yu leaned on the back of the seat.
The car was quiet for a long time, Huo Ran's slender fingers knocked silently on the steering wheel, and his voice was as thin as water: "In fact, the police investigation into the Xie Group smuggling case has come to an end, just now, I also submitted the evidence in my hand, which is enough to arrest Xie Lao, and the police are not as incompetent as you think." ”
When Su Yu heard this, he turned his head to look at him.
The smile on her lips grew deeper.
Huo Ran's eyes were still cold, there was no expression on his face, and on the way to the hospital, Su Yu kept looking at Huo Ran's side face like this.
Huo Ran's expression did not change in the slightest.
The car was parked in the parking lot at the entrance of the hospital, Su Yu waited for the car to stop, then unfastened the seat belt, she leaned into the driver's seat, and her white face appeared in front of him.
Huo Ran lowered his eyes.
Su Yu raised his eyes to look at him: "Are you still angry?" What are you angry about......"
He was angry with himself, obviously she was under his nose today, but he didn't take a good look at her, but let her be beaten.
Su Yu looked at him wrinkling his eyebrows, and rubbed his lips with his lips: "Don't be angry, okay?" I will definitely take care of myself next time and not let myself get hurt, but you see, I wasn't hurt today, but I was scratched on my face, and my body didn't hurt at all......"
Although she was apologizing, the sweetness in her heart couldn't help but spread little by little.
Huo Ran stared at her for a long time, the emotion in his dark eyes became stronger and stronger, and he took the lead and kissed her on the lips.
It's not the lingering of the past, but there is a moment, not a kiss, sometimes inch by inch, sometimes a little bit of tossing and turning.
The kiss made his throat astringent, and when he wanted to hug Su Yu over to his lap, Su Yu couldn't hold back, because of the bruises on his body, he screamed in pain, and frowned slightly between his eyebrows.
Huo Ran's eyes turned cold again.
Su Yu: "......"
