Chapter 391: Officially Fighting
Sima Qiqi looked at the judge with a smile after speaking, the judge heard Sima Qiqi's statement, and thought that there was a certain amount of truth, Zhuo Ao had been disrupted once, if it was disrupted again, then the next trial would definitely be led by Sima Qiqi's nose, at this time Zhuo Ao's attitude was extremely resolute, and he completely disagreed with Sima Qiqi's proposal to be asked by the defense lawyer first.
The judge saw that the two were deadlocked, and motioned for the two to come to the front of the trial seat, the judge leaned over and watched Sima Qiqi and Zhuo Ao talk quietly, although sitting in the auditorium, although they couldn't hear what the three were saying, but seeing Zhuo Ao's movements getting bigger and bigger, Sima Qiqi also had a tough attitude, and did not back down at all, for a long time, it seemed that under the judge's strong mediation, Sima Qiqi and Zhuo Ao reached a consensus, and the judge showed a relaxed expression on his face.
The two returned to their respective positions, the judge looked at Zhuo Ao, as if he was afraid of Zhuo Ao's temporary change of hexagram, Zhuo Ao shrugged his shoulders slightly, made a gesture of please, and looked at Sima Qiqi expressionlessly, the judge saw that Zhuo Ao did not change his attitude, with a relieved expression.
The judge looked at Sima Qiqi and said slowly: "Defense lawyer, based on your previous statement, this court believes that you can take the lead in questioning witnesses in this case."
Sima Qiqi smiled slightly, and nodded to the judge very politely, Sima Qiqi raised his head and looked at the judge with resolute eyes, and the judge saw the look in Sima Qiqi's eyes, as if Sima Qiqi seemed to have changed into a different person.
"Your Excellency, I would like to ask the plaintiff, Mr. Niu Ben, to come to court to accept our inquiry, thank you!"
Sima Qiqi said unhurriedly, the judge heard Sima Qiqi say this, nodded slightly, Zhuo Ao nodded to Niu Ben, and motioned for Niu Ben to sit on the witness stand.
In the auditorium, I saw that the Niu Ben in Sima Qiqi's mouth was actually the man wearing a fake gold chain that he saw in the hospital before, and nodded slightly, only to see that Niu Ben had changed into a formal suit this time, and even the gold chain around his neck was removed, Sima Qiqi felt funny in his heart.
"It seems that this Zhuo Ao really hates me, let a person change a lot, is there such a big hatred?"
Sima Qiqi thought about it, feeling funny in his heart, the judge saw that Sima Qiqi didn't speak, and thought that Sima Qiqi was thinking about something again, so he hurriedly coughed, Sima Qiqi realized that he was out of shape, bowed deeply to the judge to apologize, looked at Niu Ben and asked slowly.
"Mr. Niu, what is your relationship with the injured?"
Niu Ben seemed to have been scared by Sima Qiqi before, obviously a man of five years and three thick, but at this time, he was like a student who made a mistake and was caught by the teacher, and said in a low voice: "She is my aunt."
Sima Qiqi saw Niu Ben's performance, felt funny, and glanced at Zhuo Ao slightly, Zhuo Ao couldn't wait to interrupt Sima Qiqi's conversation with Niu Ben at this time, only to see Zhuo Ao's left hand clenched into a fist, looking at Niu Ben with an angry face.
Sima Qiqi's expression became serious, he slammed his hand on the table, and asked loudly: "Mr. Niu, what did you just say, please be louder, this is the court, and every word and deed must be recorded."
Target. Please respect the court. ”
Niu Ben was so frightened by Sima Qiqi that he stammered: "Injured, the injured person is, it's me, aunt."
Sima Qiqi's expression became relaxed and said with a smile: "Mr. Niu, don't be so afraid, you have to know that you are the plaintiff, how can you act like a defendant?"
Niu Ben heard Sima Qiqi say this, only then did he react, Zhuo Ao heard Sima Qiqi say this, and when he saw Niu Ben like that, he almost fainted.
Sima Qiqi said with a smile: "Mr. Niu, may I ask, on what evidence do you use to sue my client for injuring your aunt in court, and also ask my client to compensate your aunt for all her medical expenses, future living expenses, and other miscellaneous expenses."
Niu Ben said loudly: "I think she hit it!"
Sima Qiqi stretched out his index finger and put it to his mouth to signal Niu Ben not to be so loud, Zhuo Ao had a disgusted expression, Sima Qiqi said with a smile: "Mr. Niu, do you think, do you think that such words should not be said in court, the court, it is about evidence!" Do you have any evidence that your aunt was the one who injured you? ”
Before Sima Qiqi's words fell, Niu Ben said loudly again: "If she hadn't hit her, why would she let some of her relatives inquire about my aunt's affairs in many ways, this is clearly a thief."
Sima Qiqi pretended to be surprised, pointed at Niu Ben and said, "Oh, Mr. Niu, the gold chain around your neck is gone!"
When Niu Ben heard Sima Qiqi say this, he laughed indifferently: "Oh, I just took it off, and you observed it very carefully."
Sima Qiqi smiled slightly and said, "Mr. Niu, why don't you think I'm here to steal your gold chain?"
Niu Ben was asked by Sima Qiqi like this, but he couldn't find the north for a while, and looked at Sima Qiqi with a puzzled expression, Sima Qiqi smiled and said: "Isn't it often said that if you are not afraid of thieves stealing, you are afraid of thieves, I just asked you where your gold chain is, why don't you suspect that I have other intentions?"
"Objections, Your Excellency, the defense counsel deliberately stalled and asked about matters unrelated to the case."
Zhuo Ao had realized that Sima Qiqi's inquiry was dangerous, but he had been unsure, knowing that Sima Qiqi had asked the last question, Zhuo Ao knew that if someone like Niu Ben was allowed to answer Sima Qiqi's question, Sima Qiqi would have the advantage, Zhuo Ao was helpless, so he had to stand up and oppose interrupting the conversation between Sima Qiqi and Niu Ben.
The judge didn't seem to think that there was anything wrong with Sima Qiqi's question just now, but seeing Zhuo Ao's determined expression, the judge looked at Sima Qiqi and asked slowly: "Defense lawyer, what is the purpose of the plaintiff's gold chain just now, and is it directly related to this case?"
Sima Qiqi said with a smile: "Your Excellency, it has a lot to do with it, as long as the plaintiff answers the question I just asked, it can prove what kind of person the plaintiff is."
As soon as Sima Qiqi finished speaking, the judge was about to continue, when Zhuo Ao shouted loudly: "Objection, Your Excellency, the character of the plaintiff is not directly related to this case, and now we are talking about the plaintiff's aunt being the defendant."
The case in which the defendant ignored the injuries was not a case in which the plaintiff was determined in court to be what kind of person the plaintiff was. ”
The judge nodded slightly, and Sima Qiqi immediately retorted: "Your Excellency, just now the plaintiff said that he suspected my client because during the hospitalization of the plaintiff's aunt, my client entrusted someone to inquire about the plaintiff's aunt's injury, so the plaintiff suspected that my client was the perpetrator, so I just intently asked the defendant about his personal property, but the plaintiff was not vigilant against me, so I really want to prove what kind of person the plaintiff is, whether he is seriously suspicious or not suspicious, This will play a crucial and indicative role in the trial of the case. ”
After listening to Sima Qiqi and Zhuo Ao's statements, the judge thought for a while, nodded slowly, and said: "The objection is invalid, and the plaintiff asks you to answer the question of the defense lawyer just now."
Niu Ben said frankly: "No, why do I treat you as a thief, you are a barrister!"
Sima Qiqi heard Niu Ben say this, a smile appeared on his face, Zhuo Ao sat on the chair with his head down at this time, and turned his face away with a look of disgust, not wanting to see Niu Ben again.
Sima Qiqi noticed Zhuo Ao's reaction and felt funny, Sima Qiqi looked at Niu Ben, the smile on his face slowly put away, and said in a very serious tone: "Since you think that a lawyer will not become a thief who steals gold chains, then my client is a famous college student with excellent character and learning, why do you think that my client is the perpetrator who injured your aunt, is it because of my client's kindness, after all, the place where your aunt had an accident is also the place where my client got into the car, and the time is so coincidental, Let my client see this scene, my client out of good intentions, asked someone to inquire about the old lady's injury, and you suspect my client without any evidence, and the basis of suspicion is my client's good intentions? ”
Niu Ben was dumbfounded by Sima Qiqi's questions, Sima Qiqi looked at Niu Ben, waiting for Niu Ben's answer, Niu Ben may never have thought about these questions, and didn't know how to answer for a while, Zhuo Ao sat aside and saw Niu Ben like this, and quickly stood up and said: "Oppose, Your Excellency Judge, my client is not hot-headed, but after careful consideration, imagine that a person is injured, if it has nothing to do with himself, then at most when the onlookers are the crowd, do you have to ask someone to inquire about the injuries of the injured?"
Sima Qiqi sneered at this time, looked at Zhuo Ao and said slowly: "Plaintiff lawyer, your cold-blooded does not mean that everyone is cold-blooded, my client cares about a stranger out of kindness, is this law not allowed?"
Zhuo Ao glanced at Sima Qiqi and then at Li Xiaona, and said slowly: "Yes, but I believe that it is not about me, if the old man's injury has nothing to do with him, at most he cares about the scene, all the defendant's actions have gone beyond a good intention, but a kind of relevant measure to make up for his mistakes."
The two argued fiercely, and at this time, the judge rang the judgment hammer, and the crisp voice instantly interrupted the argument between Sima Qiqi and Zhuo Ao.
The judge said expressionlessly: "Two lawyers, there is still a plaintiff sitting in the courtroom, your arguments are based on your own subjective conjecture, let's listen to what the plaintiff, Mr. Niu Ben, thinks!"
Sima Qiqi heard the judge say this, nodded slightly, although Zhuo Ao was not convinced, he could only listen to the judge.
The three of them looked at Niu Ben in unison, Niu Ben was bombarded with all kinds of information before, and the whole person sat on the witness stand in a daze, and waited for a long time, the judge coughed, so that Niu Ben came back to his senses, and the judge asked again, Niu Ben thought about it and stood up and said: "Although the defense lawyer just said it is reasonable, I don't believe that anyone will be kind enough to inquire about a stranger's injury, I think my aunt's injury is directly related to the defendant."
