The judge nodded, and two images appeared on the courtroom screen. The judge looked at the pictures and asked very suspiciously, "Defense lawyer, could you please explain what happened to these two pictures?" ”

Sima Qiqi nodded and replied: "Your Excellency, the picture on the left is a real crime scene taken picture, we originally wanted to reenact the case on the spot, but unfortunately, the reconstruction of this area, the factory was demolished, so we only have to find professionals to build a 1:1 model of the factory and the road, that is, the picture on the right." ”

The judge bowed his head and said, "Please continue." ”

Sima Qiqi nodded and said slowly: "Your Excellency, we not only asked professionals to build a 1:1 model, but also asked someone to simulate the change of the stars on the night of the murder seven years ago, please look at the big screen." ”

Sima Qiqi continued as he operated the computer with his hands, "At that time, there were not many lights in the industrial area, so at night, what people could see with the naked eye was ......"

Before Sima Qiqi finished speaking, everyone came with a burst of exclamations, although the adjudication court was relatively small, but because Sun Xiulin's case was too sensational back then, this time the adjudication tribunal was also full.

Seeing the changes in the pictures on the big screen, I knew why Sima Qiqi was full of confidence when he saw this scene in the simulation venue.

Because the witness confessed that he "said that he had seen the abandoned factory with a green roof, and that he could not have seen the color of this roof without lights." ”

Sima Qiqi saw that the relaxed expression on the judge's face had disappeared, Sima Qiqi looked at the prosecutor again, and at this time he had already frowned, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly and said: "Your Excellency, the evidence presented by the defense clearly shows that under the circumstances at that time, it is impossible for the witness to see the color of the roof of the factory with his own eyes, because everything is black. ”

At this time, the prosecutor stood up and said, "Your Excellency, it may be that the witness has been to that place before, so he said that what he saw before was what he saw with his own eyes, but the police did find the body there. ”

Sima Qiqi glanced at the prosecutor and looked at the judge and said politely: "Your Excellency, the testimony of this witness clearly records that he has never been to that industrial area, and that is the first time he has been to that place. We believe that the testimony of the witnesses was dishonest and contradictory. We believe that there are relevant doubts in Sun Xiulin's case, which is an unjust case caused by the carelessness of the personnel responsible for handling the case, litigation and trial at that time. We kindly ask Your Excellency the Judge to grant our appeal approved. ”

The judge gasped when he heard Sima Qiqi say this, not surprised, even he knew that this case involved a wide range of aspects, so at the beginning, all the cells in his body objected, and the judge of this tribunal was not a fool, so naturally he would not make a decision immediately.

Sure enough, as expected, the judge coughed and said: "Defense lawyer, you did point out the major doubts in this case back then, and this court needs time to re-examine the information you provided in detail and then make a judgment." Withdraw from court. ”

Hear the week

The people around were all discussing, and at this time, they noticed that Sima Qiqi didn't seem to show too much disappointment. Two days later, the adjudication court gave a judgment approving Sun Xiulin's appeal and notified Sima Qiqi of the time for the court to retry the case.

When he saw the notice, he said in surprise: "Hey, this time the action is very fast, and even the time for the second trial has been determined." ”

Sima Qiqi put the notice aside and said slowly: "This case is just like you said, the involvement is too big, and all the criminal prosecutions and laws are looking at this case." ”

When I arrived at the second instance trial, I felt incredible when I saw the judge sitting in the auditorium, because the judge of the second instance this time was none other than Qi Nian, who was playing yin before, and when I saw that the judge was Qi Nian, I muttered in my heart: "Isn't this person a prosecutor, I said that he was parachuted in before, and I thought that he was accumulating some experience here to be a prosecutor in other places, how did he become a judge, this has changed a lot." ”

At the beginning of the second trial, the court staff said that the case of this trial - the retrial of Sun Xiulin's case, and the prosecutor was still Fang Aoqin, only to see Fang Aoqin stand up and say: "Your Excellency, the prosecution wants to adjourn this case." ”

Qi Nian looked at Fang Aoqin and asked puzzledly, "What reason does the prosecution have for the court to delay the trial of this case?" ”

Fang Aoqin nodded to the judge and replied politely: "Your Excellency, since the most critical witness in this case has not yet been found, the prosecution wants to postpone the case and wait for the police to find that witness to show justice." ”

Qi Nian said with an unhappy face: "Prosecutor, do you think that this court is a newcomer and is easy to bully, when the defense lawyer appeals this case, you should be prepared, and the trial time will be notified to the prosecution in advance." Only now that the prosecution has started its second trial, you want the court to adjourn the trial. Do you use the courtroom as a place to play? ”

swallowed it for a while, and thought to himself: "The new official took office with three fires, and one fire burned Fang Aoqin, and he didn't give face at all." ”

I saw Fang Aoqin bow to apologize, and said slowly: "Your Excellency, the prosecution doesn't know what's going on, and the witness disappeared like this." So ......"

The judge had already suppressed the anger in his heart at this time, and the atmosphere seemed to have reached the freezing point, at this time Sima Qiqi stood up and spoke to break the suffocating atmosphere, Sima Qiqi said slowly: "Your Excellency, the defense agrees to the prosecutor's request, the testimony of that witness has changed the direction of Sun Xiulin's case, and the defense also found clues from the testimony of this witness, so the defense also thinks that without that witness, I am afraid that it is impossible to know what the real situation was at that time, so the defense requests the court to postpone the trial of the case, Allow the prosecution to find witnesses to testify in court. ”

Qi Nian looked at Sima Qiqi and then at Fang Aoqin, thought for a while and said slowly: "After careful consideration, this court has indeed found that witness is the key to Sun Xiulin's case, and this second trial is also because the defense found contradictions from the testimony of that witness, this court approved the prosecution's application for adjournment of the case, how long is the prosecution going to postpone the case?" ”

Fang Aoqin looked at Liu Weijie in the auditorium and saw Liu

Wei Jie raised his index finger, Fang Aoqin nodded and looked back at Qi Nian and said, "Your Excellency, the prosecution needs to adjourn the case for a week. ”

Qi Nian picked up the pen and recorded it on the paper, looked at the calendar and said dissatisfiedly: "Okay, there are no other requirements, this case will be postponed for a week and the retrial will be notified separately." I hope that there will be no further mistakes in the prosecution by then. Withdraw from court. ”

On the fourth day, Liu Weijie came to the office, and when he saw Liu Weijie, he immediately blocked Liu Weijie with a smile and said, "Captain Liu, why are you doing in my office again?" You're not going to have a crush on me, are you? ”

After speaking, he raised his eyebrows, Liu Weijie was still expressionless, and then Sima Qiqi walked out of the office and saw the two of them, Sima Qiqi asked, "Captain Liu, do you have anything wrong?" ”

Liu Weijie looked at Sima Qiqi's face and softened and said, "That witness has been found, but you don't have to ask him." ”

Sima Qiqi raised his eyebrows and said sharply: "Why, you should know that your police can't obstruct the lawyer's inquiry." ”

Liu Weijie's facial muscles twitched, he didn't speak, took out a few photos, leaned over with Sima Qiqi to take a look, and directly scolded a swear word "damn".

The three of them went to Sima Qiqi's office to avoid being alarmed and attracting the attention of the rest of the firm.

As soon as he closed the door, before the two of them could sit down, he said loudly: "Is there any mistake, that witness is dead, and there are still so many wounds on his body." ”

Liu Weijie said with a disgusted face: "Do you want to borrow a megaphone, you take it out and shout on the street!" ”

Pointing at Liu Weijie, he walked towards Liu Weijie angrily, Sima Qiqi knocked heavily on the table when he saw this, both of them looked at Sima Qiqi, Sima Qiqi smiled, and made a gesture of please for the two to sit down.

The two pulled out their chairs and sat down, staring at Liu Weijie hostilely for a while before looking away. Sima Qiqi felt that the smell of gunpowder between the two of them gradually disappeared, so he asked Liu Weijie, "How did this witness die?" ”

Liu Weijie said slowly: "Before the deceased died, he was cut dozens of times with a sharp blade......"

Hearing this, he said in a disgusted voice: "Hey, it hurts, it feels like it's a simplified version of Ling Chi." ”

Liu Weijie looked at Sima Qiqi, smiled and apologized, and said, "Sorry, excuse me, please continue." ”

Liu Weijie threw down a disgusted look, looked at Sima Qiqi and continued: "The cause of death was that the artery in the neck was cut with a sharp blade, causing massive bleeding and excessive blood loss. ”

After a pause, Liu Weijie looked at it, because Liu Weijie's eyes were unhappy just now, but when he saw Liu Weijie look at himself again, his heart was nameless.

He slapped the table and stood up and said, "What are you doing, I didn't say anything this time, don't be shy, you kid, how can this be my office, my territory." ”

Seeing that Liu Weijie was so excited, he smiled and said: "I didn't say anything about you, don't be so sensitive, I just want to say that there is one thing you are right, the criminal psychology of the police."

Scholars also agree that the murderer had a great grudge against the deceased, so before killing the deceased, the deceased was brutally punished and then severed the major artery in the neck. ”

Rubbing his shoulder, he shook his head and said, "It hurts." ”

Suddenly remembering the question, he picked up the photo on the table and asked, "Hey, isn't this deceased's eyes gone, is this?" ”

Liu Weijie looked at it and said slowly: "This is the deceased who was gouged out after his death." In my opinion, this is a kind of revenge against fake eyewitnesses. ”

He said to himself, "That's okay, it doesn't hurt that much." ”

Sima Qiqi looked at the photo, looked at Liu Weijie and said slowly: "Your police suspect that the murderer is Sun Xiulin." ”

Liu Weijie's expression became serious, and he said slowly: "I don't know if Sun Xiulin or that mysterious woman did it, so I came here this time to tell you that this person was killed, and I want to know the information of that mysterious woman." ”

Before Sima Qiqi could speak, he preemptively said, "I'm sorry, that's the customer's information, and I can't disclose it casually." ”

As he was talking, he felt his mobile phone vibrate, took out his mobile phone and found that it was a message, clicked on it, it was sent by an unknown number, and it was written with a very simple content "I want to see a wonderful video click on the link", at this time I felt very confused, and I laughed badly and thought: "Could it be that kind of video?" ”
