Chapter 111: Witnesses

Sima Qiqi looked at the computer screen and shook his head, feeling lost. The next day, Sima Qiqi received a notice of postponement of the trial from the court, and looked at the notice that it was written that because new evidence had appeared, the prosecution needed to re-verify the new evidence, and looked at Sima Qiqi with this piece of paper.

Sima Qiqi stood up and said, "Don't think about it, we can't be idle, but what I'm most curious about is why there is a video recording at the house of the female deceased." ”

clapped his hands and said, "That's right, someone puts a camera at home, so perverted." ”

Sima Qiqi straightened out his clothes and said, "These prosecutors will investigate, our community will ask if anyone has ever seen someone dressed so strangely or someone with a big bag." ”

Repeating what Sima Qiqi had just said, he asked puzzledly: "Big bag, why are you looking for someone with a big bag?" ”

Sima Qiqi looked disgusted, and waited for a while before answering: "If a person takes off the hat and windbreaker, he will definitely be attracted by people when he holds it in his hand, what if he doesn't put it in his bag?" ”

Hearing Sima Qiqi say this, he suddenly realized.

When the two came to this community, they first asked the security guard of the community, looked at the surveillance and found nothing, and proposed to go to the floor of the female deceased to inquire about the neighbors. When Sima Qiqi heard this, he muttered in his heart again, seeing Sima Qiqi's appearance, he knew that Sima Qiqi began to despise himself from the bottom of his heart again. smiled and pulled Sima Qiqi, regardless of whether Sima Qiqi was happy or not, he went to ask the neighbor of the female deceased. Knocking on the house of several neighbors of the female deceased, these neighbors shook their heads when they heard that the female deceased was asked about her life, and then quickly closed the door, and did not have time to ask more.

At this time, an old lady staggered out of the elevator, saw Sima Qiqi, and asked very vigilantly, "Who are you two looking for?" ”

I wanted to answer, but the old lady immediately took a step back. Seeing this, Sima Qiqi stepped forward and politely explained his identity and intention.

The old lady nodded and whispered, "That woman has a bit of a problem with her brain, and sometimes she talks to herself alone. ”

Hearing this, seeing the old lady carrying things, she put on a smile and said, "Grandma, let me help you carry things, can you say more about you that you know about the female deceased." ”

The old lady was still very vigilant, and at this time, Sima Qiqi stood up to play a round, and the old lady reluctantly agreed to let her help carry things.

Carrying things, I was not happy in my heart, and thought: "Oh, my big boss still treats me as a thief, do I look like a bad person?" ”

When I came to the old lady's house, it turned out that the old lady lived opposite the female deceased. Put the things away, because the old lady has been vigilant, so Sima Qiqi asked.

Sima Qiqi asked softly: "Grandma, on the day of the crime, have you ever seen anyone wearing a windbreaker, a hat, or a big bag coming in and out of your building?" ”

The old lady shook her head and said, "Little girl, how strange are there any strange people, ah, that

One day I heard a dog barking at home on Zhang Xue's side, I opened the door curiously and took a look, only to see a strange woman holding a dog arguing with that Zhang Xue. ”

Hearing this, he raised his eyebrows, waved his hand and said, "Is there anything other than that woman, old lady, think about it again, such as men?" ”

The old lady was impatiently asked, waved her hand and said, "No, our community is not casual to enter, how can so many strangers enter and leave our community freely!" ”

The two of them left the old lady's house, and when they got off the elevator, Sima Qiqi asked sharply: "Honestly, what time did that Xin Ran meet you that day, and did she carry a backpack at that time?" ”

Shaking his head, seeing Sima Qiqi's disbelieving expression, he hurriedly raised his hand and swore that he was absolutely not talking nonsense.

Sima Qiqi nodded, and the two of them walked out of the residential building, thinking: "This time it's another trip for nothing, when will Xin Ran be released!" ”

Walking dejectedly, Sima Qiqi was not in a very good mood, at this time the two walked through a gazebo, heard several old people chatting, lowered their heads, and suddenly heard an old man say loudly: "Alas, I have been having nightmares these days, and that day I saw that Zhang Xue fall to the ground with such a 'bang', it was really scary." ”

Hearing this, he raised his head, and at this time, he saw Sima Qiqi also standing still and staring at the few old people sitting in the pavilion.

The two glanced at each other, and hurriedly came to the pavilion, several old people were full of vigilance when they saw it, Sima Qiqi revealed his identity, and asked a few old people who saw Zhang Xue fall to the ground.

Several old men pointed to an old man with a white beard and glasses at the same time, and one of the old men also teased: "Na, this old guy Luo, he was about to go home that day, and the woman fell directly in front of him, almost scared him to death." ”

The old man laughed loudly as he spoke, his dentures loosened with laughter, and the old man who was ridiculed hurriedly retorted: "Who was almost scared to death, really, don't talk nonsense." ”

At this time, another old man hurriedly retorted: "You still said no, you have all gone to the hospital, and you old man was still complaining just now." ”

Several old men chattered, scratched their heads, and hurriedly interrupted the conversation of several old people, and asked, "Then may I ask, when did you see that Zhang Xue falling to the ground?" ”

Sima Qiqi glanced back, and also realized that he had lost his words, because at that time, this old man must have been so frightened that his brain was blank, how could he care about time.

Who knew that the old man said loudly, "Five twenty-five in the afternoon!" ”

Hearing this, Sima Qiqi looked back at the old man, Sima Qiqi hurriedly asked, "Old man, how can you be so sure that the time when the female deceased fell to the ground was 5:25?" ”

The old man hurriedly said: "I went home at that time, because I saw that the time was 5:25, and thought that my grandson was about to come back, so I hurriedly went back to cook, so I went faster, and I saw such an unfortunate thing, which was really unlucky." ”

The two thanked the old man and replied

to the office. The two of them returned to the office, not to mention how happy they were along the way, because the time of falling from the building was 5:25, which means that Xin Ran had no time to commit the crime at all.

When it was time for the trial to reopen, the prosecutor stood up and said, "Your Excellency, we have discovered new evidence, we have verified the authenticity of the evidence, and handed over the evidence to the defense lawyer. Your Excellency, I request that new evidence be presented in court. ”

The judge looked down at the documents and asked, "Why are there new video documents that the police haven't found before?" ”

The prosecutor said slowly: "Your Excellency, because the owner of the shop that sold the camera to the female deceased traveled abroad, he only came back recently, and he only went to the police station to report the case when he saw the news. ”

After getting the judge's consent, the prosecutor played the video, which was the video that Sima Qiqizhi had seen, and the prosecutor took out another set of clothes and hats at this time, and said slowly: "Your Excellency, we found this new evidence, and the police investigated the relationship between the female deceased and believed that there could be no new murderer, so we still investigated the two defendants, and the hat and clothes were found in the first defendant's home." ”

Hearing this, he immediately sat up straight, and Sima Qiqi stood up and objected: "Your Excellency, the same manufacturer must produce the same clothes, and having the same clothes cannot be used as evidence of my client's crime." ”

At this time, the prosecutor looked at Sima Qiqi, sneered, and said: "Lawyer Sima, is there such a coincidence, there is a mysterious person who wears a set of clothes that the first defendant also wears. And it can be seen from the video that this mysterious person opened the door and came in by himself, and pushed the female deceased downstairs while the female deceased was not paying attention. ”

The prosecutor paused and continued: "Your Excellency, the forensic evidence found the hair of the first defendant inside the hat, so it can be proved that the first defendant had worn this garment. ”

Sima Qiqi stood up again and objected: "Your Excellency, this suit belongs to my client, so of course there is my client's hair, and the evidence provided by the prosecutor lacks independent pertinence. ”

The prosecutor ignored Sima Qiqi, looked at the judge and said, "Your Excellency, I request the first defendant to come to court to give evidence. ”

The judge nodded, and the prosecutor asked Xin Ran, "First defendant, I want to ask you, is this suit yours?" ”

Xin Ran nodded, Sima Qiqi stood up again and repeated the reason for the objection just now, and then the prosecutor said: "I haven't finished talking about the defense lawyer, there is still the hair of the first defendant's pet dog on this set of clothes, the first defendant, when did you wear this dress?" ”

Xin Ran thought for a while and replied in a low voice, "I haven't worn it for several months." ”

The prosecutor smiled and said, "Your Excellency, the first defendant admitted that she hadn't worn this dress for a few months, so how could the pet dog's hair appear on the clothes." It can only be that the first defendant put on clothes at the time of the crime and committed the murder, and it was at that time that the hair of the pet dog raised by the first defendant was stained. ”

Xin Ran hurriedly said loudly: "No, because that dress is broken, I haven't sewed it yet, so I haven't washed it, maybe it's because of this that there is dog hair on that dress." ”

Sima Qiqi flipped through the information, stood up and said, "Your Excellency, according to the theory of Edmund Rocca, the father of forensics, whenever two objects come into contact, there will be a phenomenon of transfer. Something will be taken away, and something will be left behind. Although my client hasn't worn this dress for a long time, she has worn other clothes, so the dog hair on this trench coat may have been stuck to other clothes in the closet. Therefore, it is too far-fetched to use this as evidence for conviction. ”

At the end of the prosecutor's statement, Sima Qiqi stood up and stated the situation under investigation, and asked the old man to testify in court, Sima Qiqi said slowly: "Your Excellency, the time when the witness saw the female deceased fall to the ground was 5:25, and before our witness Mr. Hao Dexian testified that his client saw my client at 5:30, and in just a few minutes, my client could not have killed someone and appeared at the door of the Dijing community in time. ”
