In the new week, the office began to take annual leave as usual, although they were still detained, but Sima Qiqi and Song Yinfeng both let everyone have a rest assured holiday, Sima Qiqi looked at the empty office, and there was inevitably a trace of loneliness in his heart, usually noisy like a crow, but now that it is gone, Sima Qiqi feels that something is missing.

Xiao Yan took the water and came to Sima Qiqi's side, looked at Sima Qiqi's anxious expression and asked with concern: "Lawyer Sima, are you okay, are you worried about the boss, if you are worried about Lu Diqi's side, we can go to the audit!" ”

Sima Qiqi heard Xiao Yan say this, looked back at Xiao Yan, and said calmly: "Who said I was worried, I was thinking about Lu Jinyi's father's case, I can only wait now, the waiting time is the hardest, you see I thought it was a long time past, but I didn't expect it to be ten minutes." ”

Xiao Yan heard Sima Qiqi say this, and didn't know how to answer, just when the two looked at each other speechlessly, a "ding dong" broke the quiet and frightening atmosphere of the office, Sima Qiqi hurriedly came to his office, there was a new email on the computer, Sima Qiqi carefully clicked on the email, read it carefully, the more Sima Qiqi looked down at the content, the happier the expression on his face.

Sima Qiqi called Xiao Yan into the office after reading the email, Sima Qiqi carefully asked the time to go to court, Xiao Yan told Sima Qiqi the time, looked at Sima Qiqi with strange eyes, Sima Qiqi noticed Xiao Yan's eyes and pretended to cough.

"You, what kind of eyes, what do you mean by looking at me like that?"

Xiao Yan was pierced by Sima Qiqi, and hurriedly waved his hand to explain the past, Sima Qiqi printed out the document and handed it to Xiao Yan at this time, Xiao Yan took the document with palpitations, and took a cursory look, it's okay not to look at it, when he saw Xiao Yan's eyes glowing with joy, he looked up and was about to speak, Sima Qiqi interrupted Xiao Yan with a smile: "You go and get the second appeal, I hope it can be on the same day as the court time." ”

Xiao Yan heard Sima Qiqi say this, and he didn't know what Sima Qiqi wanted to do for a while, so Sima Qiqi smiled mysteriously and didn't say anything.

When he went to court, in another small adjudication court, Sima Qiqi was appealing for the second time.

"What is the defence lawyer's argument for a second appeal, is it to find substantial evidence that proves how deep the wound on the back of the deceased's head was at the time it was caused?"

Qi Nian looked at Sima Qiqi with an indifferent expression, Sima Qiqi stood up and said with a slight smile: "Your Excellency the Magistrate, I'm sorry, we can't find this evidence......"

Before Sima Qiqi finished speaking, the prosecutor stood up and looked at Qi Nian and said angrily: "Your Excellency, the defense lawyer is simply wasting the court's time and delaying our normal work, this case has been ironclad, the defense lawyer is doing this is nothing more than trying to help the defendant buy a little time, I request that the trial of this case be terminated immediately, and the defendant will be punished in accordance with the law." ”

When Qi Nian heard the prosecutor say this, he also looked at the prosecutor with an indifferent face, Qi Nian didn't speak, Sima Qiqi saw Qi Nian's performance, thought about it, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly, coughing, attracting the eyes of Qi Nian and the prosecutor.

"Your Excellency, I haven't finished my sentence yet, can you listen to me?"

Sima Qiqi asked politely.

Qi Nian nodded slightly in agreement, Sima Qiqi bowed slightly and said, "Thank you, Your Excellency, Mr. Prosecutor over there, please sit down and listen to me finish speaking!" ”

When the prosecutor heard Sima Qiqi say this, the expression on his face stiffened, and he looked at Qi Nian again, Qi Nian blinked and motioned for the prosecutor to sit down, and the prosecutor sat back in his place very reluctantly.

Sima Qiqi smiled and said: "Your Excellency, although we have not found evidence of how deep the deceased's head wound was when it was injured, and we cannot prove whether the hammer is a tool for committing the crime, but after our efforts to verify, we have found some new evidence that can prove that my client is not the murderer of the murderer and the burning of the body, and my client is innocent. ”

Qi Nian also frowned when he heard Sima Qiqi say this, but soon Qi Nian returned to his indifferent expression, nodded slightly and agreed to the application for evidence submission, at this time, I saw Sima Qiqi operating on the computer, and a video appeared, Qi Nian and the prosecutor were staring at the big screen, a dynamic picture, in which a model of a person was standing, and then another model was holding a hammer and hitting the back of the head of the model in front of him. At this time, Sima Qiqi paused the picture and looked up at Qi Nian and the prosecutor.

The prosecutor didn't show a clear expression, Qi Nian's eyes moved, it was obvious that Qi Nian was thinking about what decisive role this dynamic picture had on the appeal of Lu Kuan's case, Sima Qiqi was very calm at this time, quietly waiting for Qi Nian or the prosecutor to speak.

Qi Nian was the first to ask: "Defense lawyer, does this dynamic picture have any significance to your appeal case, in my opinion, this is just a reproduction of the murder process of this case, please explain, if you can't prove that this evidence is instructive for the appeal of this case, this court will think that you deliberately delayed the trial and caused the trial to be too slow, which is a waste of taxpayers' money, this court will give you a serious warning, and will record this, and then decide whether to report it to the Bar Association depending on your situation." ”

Sima Qiqi smiled slightly and said, "Your Excellency, and Mr. Prosecutor, do you both think that this dynamic picture is a reproduction of the original crime scene of this case?" ”

The prosecutor couldn't sit still at this time, and preemptively said: "This is not clear, this one person hits the other person in the back of the head with a hammer, defense lawyer, what use do you say you do this kind of useless work, why don't you also do the situation where the defendant set the fire in the first place." Your Excellency, it is clear that the defence solicitor is delaying time, please give the defence solicitor a serious warning and inform the Bar Association of the defence solicitor's conduct. ”

Sima Qiqi said unhurriedly at this time: "Please wait first, Your Excellency the Magistrate, this dynamic picture is simulated according to the police forensics and the corresponding documents given by the prosecution six years ago, and the height of the two people in the dynamic picture is also based on the actual height of the deceased and my person at the time, but if the deceased was really murdered by my client, then the police and forensic evidence should find this thing at the scene." ”

Sima Qiqi re-operated on the computer and enlarged the suspended screen, at this time Qi Nian and the prosecutor saw the pupils of the two on the big screen and couldn't help dilating, Sima Qiqi saw the performance of the two and knew that he expected it to be good, and said slowly: "If the deceased was really killed by being hit in the back of the head with a blunt object, then no matter what angle the murder weapon hit the back of the head, there should be traces of blood flying at low speed on the extension line of the murder weapon, but the on-site inspection report six years ago did not say that the corresponding blood traces were found." ”

The prosecutor panicked at this time, and quickly explained: "Maybe the hammer hit the back of the head did not cause bleeding!" ”

The prosecutor said this, Qi Nian turned his head and looked at the prosecutor with a depressed expression, Sima Qiqi said with a smile at this time: "Then according to what the prosecutor said, is that hammer still a murder weapon, this is all unknown, so does the prosecutor have any evidence to prove that the wound did not cause bleeding back then, ah, by the way, you didn't, all the documents you submitted back then just said that the hammer was a murder weapon, and the blood traces at the scene were not investigated at all, everything was just your imagination, It is irresponsible for human life that you have forcibly charged my client without thoroughly investigating the chain of evidence, and you are simply trampling on the law. ”

The prosecutor didn't expect Sima Qiqi to use on-site evidence to appeal, he didn't prepare at all, Qi Nian couldn't refute Sima Qiqi's statement for a while, Sima Qiqi looked at Qi Nian at this time and said slowly: "Your Excellency, the murder case in the forest garden six years ago was indeed a sensation, because the means were cruel, but you can't draw conclusions because you are in a hurry to solve the case, this is human life, if you make a mistake, even if you want to make up for the unjust death, you will not be resurrected, six years ago, The investigation of the evidence at the scene of the murder did not form a complete chain of evidence, and when the traces of the deceased's blood were not clear, how could it be proved that the hammer was a murder weapon, if the hammer was a murder weapon, it was not only to prove that the hammer had the blood of the deceased, you must know that the deceased and my client were husband and wife, and the hammer was my client's tool, so as the wife's blood was stained on the husband's tool, this situation would also occur in life, I now have reason to suspect, Six years ago, due to the negligence of the relevant staff who handled the case, the relevant evidence lacked a reasonable explanation, and I did not see the relevant on-site blood report in any of the reports. Your Excellency, blood marks are an indispensable and important piece of evidence in a criminal case, not only to prove the scene of the crime, but also to know what caused the wounds of the deceased, in the absence of such important evidence as blood marks, it is determined that the deceased was killed by a hammer blow to the back of the head, this statement lacks the necessary evidence to prove, so we believe that there are major doubts in this case, please Your Excellency the Magistrate to rule on the case and remand for a new trial! ”

Sima Qiqi said the word "retrial" very seriously in the end, although Qi Nian was still expressionless, but Sima Qiqi noticed that Qi Nian's face twitched slightly. Qi Nian glanced at the prosecutor at this time, and the prosecutor also shook his head in despair, Qi Nian was silent for a while and said slowly: "In view of the serious human omissions in the evidence link of this case, the defendant in this case suspended the sentence and remanded for trial, and the case was remanded to the court for retrial and withdrawn from court." ”

Sima Qiqi and Xiao Yan clapped their hands excitedly, and the prosecutor left the adjudication court dejectedly, at which time Xiao Yan hurriedly reminded: "Lawyer Sima, go and see how the boss is doing!" ”

Sima Qiqi was still immersed in joy, but when she heard Xiao Yan say this, she hurriedly ran out of the courtroom.
