Sima Qiqi got professional advice from Niu Erhe and strengthened the reasons used to defend himself in his heart, this trial is not soft and the side, Sima Qiqi will definitely not take over. After all, the fact of Tang Wenjia's theft is that there are both human and material evidence, and there is no need to defend it at all, and the government deliberately asked Sima Qiqi because it wanted to take advantage of Tang Wenjia's prestige when he was in office, and Sima Qiqi thought that this case was too big.

Seeing Sima Qiqi like this, he asked with concern: "Are you okay, do you have a headache or are you not feeling well?" ”

"I feel uncomfortable."

Sima Qiqi looked at him unhappily and said.

Hearing Sima Qiqi say this, he was also stunned, and in an instant, he laughed evilly and said: "Oh, I feel uncomfortable, so let's do it, I'll help you rub the outside, I'm here." ”

Sima Qiqi grabbed his hands with a backhand move, and asked slowly, "What did you just say, say it again." ”

I only felt that I was being pulled by a force, and I screamed in pain. hurriedly confessed his mistake to Sima Qiqi, and Sima Qiqi saw that he had admitted his mistake, so he let go of the locked hand.

Sima Qiqi glanced at it and said with a disgusted face: "Eh, you are a big man, you cry out for pain at every turn, and you still have a face." ”

Hearing Sima Qiqi say this, he said righteously: "Hey, I don't allow me to scream when I hurt!" Who said that men are not afraid of pain, you must know that biologically, women's tolerance is higher than that of men, we are different. I'm not stupid, I'm dying of pain, I nodded and smiled and said yes, that's not courage, that's stupid. ”

Sima Qiqi frolicked in the office, and then Xiao Yan walked in, saw Sima Qiqi's appearance, and said with an embarrassed face: "Eh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, you continue, I didn't see anything." ”

Seeing that Xiao Yan didn't mean to leave, he took out his mobile phone to prepare for shooting, and said with a puzzled face: "No, Xiao Yan, what you just said, shouldn't you leave and close the door next, why are you standing still and taking out your mobile phone, your action is illogical!" ”

When Xiao Yan heard this, he said with a smile: "The shameless boss flirting with a beautiful lawyer will definitely become our after-dinner conversation, you don't know that there is no gossip in the firm now, and I finally got caught, if I don't take pictures and share it with you, then the atmosphere in the office will still be lifeless." Go on, and make it air. ”

smiled awkwardly and said, "Kiki is my girlfriend, didn't you already know about it!" ”

"Yes, but, my colleagues asked me to gossip about the news, I don't know, I suspect that you don't know what you did behind my back, although I am often with Lawyer Sima, but I haven't seen you too close, continue to continue, I'm recording."

Sima Qiqi pushed it away and coughed and said, "Xiao Yan, what is the matter with you coming to me?" ”

Xiao Yan put down his mobile phone and said with a smile: "I have already handed over the information to the court, and the court has sent a notice of hearing, and I have already sent it to our client." The person concerned has also replied to me. ”

"When is the court session?"

Sima Qiqi asked.

"Oh, the day after tomorrow, in fact, Lawyer Sima, this kind of case is so small, you are simply overkill, but for our welfare, Lawyer Sima, thank you from the bottom of my heart."

Hearing Xiao Yan praise Sima Qiqi, he said with a puzzled face: "Eh, that, this business is what I promised, why don't you thank me for being the boss, why are you thanking Qiqi?" ”

Xiao Yan said with a smile: "Boss, you know." ”

Xiao Yan was about to leave, when Sima Qiqi stopped Xiao Yan and said, "By the way, you must always pay attention to our client, and before the trial, you must repeatedly remind our client to dress and arrive at the court on time." ”

Xiao Yan nodded, blinked very playfully and said, "Got it, okay, I won't bother you, you continue." ”

Xiao Yan quickly left Sima Qiqi's office, looked at Sima Qiqi with a puzzled expression and asked, "What's the matter, what are you worried about, are you still afraid that Tang Wenjia will do something out of the ordinary?" ”

Sima Qiqi shook his head, sighed and said slowly: "It's not that you didn't see that Tang Wenjia's attitude the day before yesterday, as if he was determined to go to prison this time. I'm afraid that he will really do something out of the ordinary to go to prison. ”

Hearing Sima Qiqi express his worries, he waved his hand and said: "Hey, anyone will say this angry thing, how can you take it seriously, go to prison, it's not really going on vacation, that prison is still sharpening his head and rushing forward, it's too late to hide, don't worry, I guarantee with my personality, that Tang Wenjia is also fast-tongued, I forgive him for not having the guts, he really dares to play any moth." ”

When Sima Qiqi heard this, he tilted his head and looked at him calmly and said, "Your personality? ”

Hearing Sima Qiqi's questioning, he said very confidently: "Tang Wenjia, that old man dares to play with a moth, I will eat your desk." Don't worry, how can such a retired high-ranking official really go to prison, it is simply more painful than killing him. ”

When the trial was in session, Sima Qiqi stood next to the courtroom defense seat, stretching her neck to look outside the courtroom, and also looked at the courtroom door from time to time. It didn't take long for the judge to walk into the courtroom, and the court police were about to close the courtroom door, when Xiao Yan hurriedly trotted in, Sima Qiqi saw Xiao Yan enter the courtroom alone and asked Xiao Yan about the situation with a worried face.

Xiao Yan waved his hand and whispered, "I called Tang Wenjia, and his wife said that he was not feeling well and he was not coming." ”

When Sima Qiqi heard Xiao Yan say this, his head "buzzed", as if he had been hit hard by something, and complained: "It's uncomfortable in the morning and uncomfortable in the evening, it's uncomfortable at this time, I think it's true that Tang Wenjia is sincere in not letting me be comfortable." ”

The judge saw that Sima Qiqi and Xiao Yan were still standing, and coughed, Xiao Yan hurriedly pulled Sima Qiqi to sit on the defense seat, and there was an empty seat next to him, Sima Qiqi pointed with an unhappy look.

Seeing Sima Qiqi like this, he lowered his head and thought: "This Tang Wenjia is playing so big, it's over, Qiqi won't really spill her resentment on me and let me eat the table, right?" No, no, no, I'm joking, joking. ”

Thinking silently in his heart, at this time, the prosecutor had already read out the summary of the case and the sentencing, and the judge looked back at Sima Qiqi and asked, "Defendant, are you ......?"

Seeing that there was an empty seat on the defense bench, the judge stopped the question just now and asked Sima Qiqi instead: "Defense lawyer, is the young lady next to you the defendant in this case?" ”

Sima Qiqi looked at Xiao Yan and hurriedly stood up and said, "I'm sorry Your Excellency, Your Excellency, my client was unable to attend this trial today because of his temporary physical discomfort, please forgive Your Excellency." ”

When the judge heard Sima Qiqi's answer, the expression on his face became even more gloomy, and he asked in a blunt tone: "Defense lawyer, when did you know that your client, who is also the defendant in this case, is not feeling well?" ”

When Sima Qiqi heard the judge's question, he said with a slightly embarrassed expression: "One minute before the trial, oh no, it's been two minutes since the trial." ”

"You only found out two minutes before the trial that your client was not feeling well and could not attend the trial, is it because you are incompetent as a defense lawyer, or is your client deliberately contempting the court and not even attending the trial?"

Sima Qiqi smiled awkwardly and said, "Your Excellency, my client is indeed due to physical reasons, and the amount of money involved in this case is not large, so it is better to ......."

The judge interrupted Sima Qiqi's words and said slowly: "I know, your client is a retired high-ranking official Tang Wenjia, such a big official, or a retired person who doesn't take the municipal court in his eyes, right, and you Sima Qiqi, this court knows that as a defense lawyer, you will win every battle, do you also feel that you are complacent, and you don't take me as a judge in your eyes." I don't think I'm a little judge worthy of hearing your Sima Qiqi case, right? ”

"Of course not, Your Excellency, I have never had such a ridiculous idea. Your Excellency, your client has just mentioned that he is a retiree, which means that my client is now over 60 years old, so as a middle-aged and elderly person, if he is unwell, he must seek medical treatment in time, so please forgive me. ”

Sima Qiqi hurriedly explained to the judge, and after speaking, he did not forget to bow slightly to the judge very respectfully. When the judge heard Sima Qiqi say this, his anger eased slightly.

"Defense lawyer, even if I can accept the reason you just had, then you are admitting that you are derelict in your duties. As a defense lawyer, you should keep in touch with your client at all times, and if you know that your client is not feeling well and can't attend three minutes before the trial, it means that you are not always in contact with your client. I really can't imagine that a professional leader would make such a mistake. ”

Sima Qiqi heard the judge's reproach, it was really difficult to refute, and nodded again and again to apologize: "Your Excellency the judge taught me that this time it was my negligence in my work, thank you Your Excellency the judge for your testimony and criticism." ”

When the judge heard Sima Qiqi admit his mistake so simply, he didn't mean to pursue it anymore, and said slowly: "As for the prosecution, the defendant did not appear in court in this trial, should the trial be postponed or continued?" ”

The prosecutor stood up and said slowly: "Your Excellency, I believe that the defendant's failure to appear in court will not affect the trial of the case. ”

The judge nodded and said, "Since the prosecution has no opinion, then defense lawyer, please start your case." ”

Sima Qiqi finally breathed a sigh of relief when she heard the judge say this, and reluctantly squeezed out a smile and said: "Your Excellency, on behalf of my client, I only represent my client to say that the accusation just made by the prosecution is not reasonable. ”
