Sima Qiqi nodded slowly and said: "Yes, Your Excellency the Magistrate, you must know that there are at least two doubts in the case during the first trial, first, my client personally said that he was instructed by someone, because of the exchange of killings, a mysterious person has killed the person I hate in my client's heart, and wants to blackmail my client to kill the deceased in this case, but neither the police nor the prosecution mentioned this matter in the corresponding documents, in the end, my client lied, Or is it because the police or the prosecution casually investigated, and found that there was no relevant evidence, so they arbitrarily removed the relevant information and misled the court. Second, my client found through the police investigation that he had no reason to kill a stranger, and my client concluded that my client was a completely normal person after a forensic psychiatric psychiatric evaluation, so under completely normal circumstances, that is, there is no personality disorder, it is difficult to imagine that a completely normal person would kill a strange ordinary person. ”

Sima Qiqi saw the pen in the magistrate's hand put down again, and then said: "Based on the fact that the interests of the doubts belong to the defendant, there are relevant doubts in the course of the first instance of this case, so that the court of first instance issued a death sentence on our client, and we believe that if the prosecution raises the above doubts in the court documents, it will not allow my client to be punished by death, so we request Your Excellency the Magistrate to rule that the sentence in this case is too heavy and remand for a new trial." ”

As soon as Sima Qiqi finished speaking, the entire courtroom was in an uproar, and everyone was talking about it, as if it was nothing, but it was cool in his heart, and he shouted countless times in his heart for Sima Qiqi's happiness.

At that moment, the man who noticed the sunglasses suddenly left the gallery, bowed to the judge, and hurried out of the courtroom.

He didn't take it to heart, and the magistrate adjourned the court for 15 minutes, so that he had to think about the case. As soon as Sima Qiqi and Xiao Yan walked out of the courtroom, a mineral water bottle smashed towards Sima Qiqi, and he quickly reached out to grab the mineral water bottle, but he didn't expect to miss it perfectly with the mineral water bottle.

Xiao Yan saw the flying mineral water bottle's whole body froze, just when everyone present thought that the mineral water bottle was going to hit Sima Qiqi, suddenly a crisp sound broke the quiet atmosphere, and everyone present was pulled back to reality, and when he looked at it, he found that Sima Qiqi was holding the mineral water bottle with his left hand, and looked at the mineral water bottle with a calm face without speaking.

Seeing that Sima Qiqi had no problem, he thought of the matter and shouted loudly: "Who did this, throwing things around the court." ”

scolded a lot, but no one dared to come out and admit it, Sima Qiqi asked him not to quarrel, and was still indignant, Sima Qiqi whispered: "There must be fingerprints on this mineral water bottle, why are you so excited, this is the court, don't make a big noise, it's not good for your image." ”

Hearing Sima Qiqi say this, he looked at Sima Qiqi with a surprised face, Sima Qiqi's calmness was beyond imagination, and he felt that the sudden accident just now should have everyone's brains blank, but Sima Qiqi had already thought about the rest of the matter clearly.

Watching Sima Qiqi put the mineral water bottle into his bag, he admired Sima Qiqi's strength from the bottom of his heart.

The 15-minute break ended quickly, the trial reopened, as soon as the magistrate sat down, a staff member came to the magistrate's side and said a few words, the magistrate heard the staff's statement, frowned and looked at Sima Qiqi, knowing that the staff member was reporting that Sima Qiqi was almost hit by a mineral water bottle just now.

After the staff finished speaking, he returned to his seat, and the magistrate looked at Sima Qiqi and said, "The defense lawyer heard that you were attacked just now, are you fine?" ”

Sima Qiqi smiled and said, "Your Excellency, thank you for your concern, I have nothing to do, it's just that someone is angry that I defended a murderer." ”

At this time, the magistrate looked at the auditorium with a serious face and said loudly: "Lawyer, it's just a job, the defense lawyer's job is to defend the suspect, although you are the victim's family, your relatives are dead, this court knows that you are sad, but this is not a reasonable explanation for you to vent your anger on the defense lawyer, everyone has their own rights, the defense lawyer is such an existence, there is indeed a deceased in this case, the family wants to take a life for a life This court understands, but the death penalty is a tool for revenge, If the death penalty ends with the death penalty and the criminal dies but it is found that it is a wrongful conviction, then is it fair to ask the person who died unjustly, no matter what you do at that time, it is impossible to resurrect the person who died unjustly, so the death penalty should be cautious. In this case, there are indeed many doubts, whether the prosecution intentionally or unintentionally concealed some of the relevant documents submitted to the court, resulting in the first-instance judge believing that the defendant's homicide was serious, and thus sentenced him to death, and this court believes that there are indeed excessive sentences in the punishment, and this court ruled that there are doubts in the Ximing shopping mall homicide case, which cannot be explained, and the first-instance court did not take into account the corresponding doubts when hearing the case, and the sentence was too heavy. ”

After the magistrate read out the verdict of the case, he looked at the auditorium and said slowly: "This court hereby reminds the family of the deceased that the defense lawyer in this case is only performing her personal duties, please be rational and do not do anything out of the ordinary, if the law is triggered, it is only you who will suffer." Withdraw from court. ”

Although the magistrate's last words were harsh, the tone was obviously much more relaxed than just knowing that Sima Qiqi was almost attacked, and noticed that although the family members in the audience were talking, they were indeed not as angry as before, and many people were still comforting their relatives and waiting for the court to decide.

Walking out of the courtroom, looking around at any time, looking on full alert, Sima Qiqi saw this and asked suspiciously: "Why are you like this, just walk well!" ”

said with a serious face: "You defended the murderer this time, and the appeal was successful, and the case was remanded for retrial, I'm afraid that there are still people who want to retaliate against you, you think about splashing red paint, throwing mud and now throwing mineral water bottles, in case you throw glass bottles again, it's better to be careful." ”

When Xiao Yan heard this, he nodded again and again and whispered, "Lawyer Sima, it's better to be careful." ”

Sima Qiqi smiled and said: "Don't worry, the magistrate has said just now, I don't think those people will be so bold, the maximum penalty for criminal injury is ten years in prison, if you use a glass bottle to smash and injure someone, you can still sue for attempted murder, no one is so bold, and I have been prepared for a long time, after all, there are always small twists and turns in appealing for the death penalty, what I am now wary of is the future second trial, that is the big problem." ”

Sima Qiqi said and looked at it, noticed Sima Qiqi's actions, and said with a puzzled expression: "No, Qiqi, you have a big problem, why are you looking at me?" ”

"See if your bait works?"

Hearing Sima Qiqi say this, he remembered that he had planned to use 40 million to lure Xie Siqi out, and after so many days, there was no movement on Na Chengzhisuke's side, and he began to doubt in his heart: "Is 40 million really too little for Xie Siqi, no, that's 40 million, not 4,000." ”

On a new day, Sima Qiqi and Xiao Yan began to rearrange the documents, the two took a bunch of law books and piled them in the office, discussing the case from time to time, and seeing that there was no place where they could help, they had to go back to their office stupidly, and they were holding their mobile phones all day waiting for Seinosuke to call

I was still comforting myself, but as time passed, I couldn't sit still, and I thought, "Should I make a phone call and tell Seinosuke that he is going to transfer 40 million to other firms to scare them so that Xie Siqi can show up." ”

found Zhang Shan's phone number and was about to dial, but after thinking about it: "If that Xie Siqi wants to escape anything by faking his death, it is very likely that although his 40 million is also attractive, there is something Xie Siqi is more afraid of preventing Xie Siqi from earning the 40 million." ”

smiled bitterly, threw the phone on the table, and said to himself: "Oh, Hao Dexian, Hao Dexian, you kid thinks that everyone regards money as life like you, but it turns out that there are really people who don't love money in business, now it's okay, boast about Haikou, and the result gives Qiqi false hope, how will you face Qiqi in the future, how can Qiqi trust you!" ”

When he rubbed his temples with his hands and was feeling a headache because the difficulties in front of him could not be solved, the phone rang suddenly, and when he heard the phone ringing, he immediately came to his senses, and he picked up the phone very nervously and looked at it, and found that it was really a call from Zhang Shan.

Hurriedly answered the phone, heard Zhang Shan say on the phone that Xie Siqi was back, but the time was relatively tight, but he could still keep up, hurriedly agreed, hung up the phone, and trotted all the way to Sima Qiqi's office

While apologizing to him, he looked back at the door and found that there were books piled up at the door of the office, but because there was good news, it was difficult to investigate, and he hurriedly told Sima Qiqi the good news. Sima Qiqi heard that Xie Siqi could meet him, and Sima Qiqi hurriedly put down the documents in his hand.

When it was time to meet Xie Siqi, Xie Siqi was dressed plainly and wore sunglasses, if she hadn't seen Xie Siqi's photos with Sima Qiqi, she couldn't believe that this very simple woman in front of her was the female boss in charge of Chengzhisuke Investment Firm.

Xie Siqi had already shown a kind of vigilance when she saw Sima Qiqi, and when Sima Qiqi came to understand Xie Siqi's face changed greatly, she turned around and was about to leave, grabbing Xie Siqi, Xie Siqi looked at it, realized that her behavior had crossed the line, and quickly let go.

At this time, Sima Qiqi blocked Xie Siqi's way and asked patiently: "Miss Xie, you are not dead, why don't you refuse to testify in court, do you really hate Mr. Xi Ming so much?" ”

Xie Siqi slowly put on his sunglasses and looked at Sima Qiqi and said, "You won't understand, I have my own difficulties." ”
