Chapter 199 Court Day 2

At this moment, the courtroom was very quiet, which made Bideli's voice sound clearer and louder: "If Mr. Shi is unwilling to reveal the name of this lady, I will not be embarrassed, and besides, who she is is is not the focus of this case." ”

When Bi Delu spoke, the video on the big screen continued to play, and when his voice fell, he suddenly saw a man wearing sunglasses walking towards the car, looking at the figure, face shape, and hairstyle, it was actually similar to Shi Tianci.

"Who is this man?" Bi Delu asked the doubts in everyone's hearts, and a pair of eyes looked directly at Shi Tianci in the defendant's seat.

Shi Tianci sighed slightly, just lowered his head and shook his head, but never opened his mouth to answer his question.

If it weren't for the prosecution lawyer Qu Keming who had already presented evidence, the embarrassing scene in front of him would inevitably make people mistakenly think that Bi Delu was the prosecution lawyer, because the duties and obligations of the defense lawyer are mainly to serve the rights and interests of his client (that is, the defendant), so in court, the defense lawyer and the defendant should be partners with a good heart, singing and harmonizing, and at this time, Bi Delu and Shi Tianci cooperated so well that they could be said to be detached and had no tacit understanding at all.

I saw that the man in the video on the big screen opened the car door and sat in the driver's seat, but the car was not started after that. The glass of the windows should be made of anti-see-through material, so you can't see what the two people are doing inside the car.

"Please pay attention to the recording time at the top of the video, which is basically the same time period as the physical evidence photos provided by the prosecution's lawyer." Bidelian said as he turned to the auditorium, and added, "In other words, it was at the time of the crime. ”

Long Xirui was still wondering why Wu Bi and Da Huo didn't mention the episode where they met him and Ouyang Ruosi in the British community that night when they testified in court, but now when they heard Bi Delu's defense, the doubt in their hearts suddenly became who was the man in the car? Is it Shi Tianci? If so, there is no reason for a person to be in two places at the same time, is there something wrong with the time on the video or the video itself? If not, is there really someone who looks so similar to Shi Tianci in the world?

Audibly's evidence continued: "The time in the courtroom is the most precious, so we might as well fast-forward the video, and about 30 minutes later, the car drove out of the parking lot of the set with the two people we had just seen." ”

The message conveyed by the video was not unlike his description, and as the fast-forward screen switched, the sedan reappeared in the center of the video, surrounded by trees that appeared to be forested.

"Where is this?" After he finished speaking, he immediately asked himself, "This is Villa Schubert, which is one of the top ten luxury villa areas in the city, and this forest path is called the road to glory." Of course, these are not the point, the point is that after the car left the set, it came directly here, and the time coincided perfectly, and it could even be deduced that the speed was between 60 and 80 miles per hour. ”

As he spoke, the car in the video had gradually slowed down and then stopped outside the gate of Schubert's villa, and when the window fell, an arm holding an electronic key stretched out, and at the same time, the driver's face with sunglasses off appeared in the center of the surveillance video impartially, and the courtroom suddenly screamed.

At the moment when his face was frozen by Deng Waner's tapping on the keyboard, many people had already lost their voices and shouted: "Isn't this the defendant?" ”

"Mr. Shi Tianci, can you tell everyone now, is the man in the video you?" Bidrey asked.

Facing Shi Tianci's face full of surprise and silent silence, he continued: "If this question really embarrasses you, you can also not answer it. ”

"Against!" Qu Keming, the prosecution's lawyer, stood up and said, "Opposing the defense lawyer's desire to speak in court and stopping, and making evasions is tantamount to wasting everyone's time." ”

Hearing his words, the presiding judge purred his eyes and thought about it, and then said slowly: "Defense lawyer, please try to be as clear as possible when presenting evidence, and at the same time, it is necessary for the defendant to answer your questions. ”

"Presiding judge, I think the intentions of the defense lawyer are self-evident." Qu Keming's voice was much faster than before, "He just wanted to confuse the public and provide the defendant with an alibi at the time of the crime." ”

As he spoke, Qu Keming turned his gaze to Bi Delu and said solemnly: "In fact, this is nothing more than the usual trick of the defense lawyer to help the defendant clear his name in various cases. The problem at hand is that the evidence provided by the prosecution and defense is contradictory, but I think everyone should be very clear that the authenticity of the road monitoring provided by the traffic police department in each section is absolutely unquestionable. ”

"So, by implication, you are questioning the authenticity of the physical evidence provided by the defense lawyer." The presiding judge said, "If this is the case, if necessary, a third party can be asked to re-evaluate it on another day in accordance with the procedure." ”

"No need to change the day, it's today, it's now." "Presiding Judge, the witness I am going to call next will answer all the questions of the prosecution lawyer, and I hope you will allow him to appear in court." ”

The presiding judge glanced at Qu Keming, and then nodded vigorously at Bi Delu.

When the defense witness walked into the courtroom from outside the door, there was an uproar in the auditorium, because the man in front of people was exactly like Shi Tianci in the defendant's dock, or rather, as if he had come out of the video on the big screen — no, from the yellow BMW in the photo provided by the prosecution's lawyer, Qu Keming, because he was wearing the same costume as the driver accused of drunk driving.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd in amazement, the defense witness stepped onto the witness stand.

Before the presiding judge could strike the gavel to stop the exchange of words in the auditorium, Bidley had already opened his mouth and asked, "Witness, please tell everyone, who are you?" ”

"I'm Shi Tianci......"

He said a word that silenced the courtroom, but he hadn't finished saying this sentence, but just said a little panting: "...... Mr.'s stand-in is called Mai Sheng. ”

Hearing his identity, there was immediately another commotion in the auditorium.

The presiding judge struck the gavel a few times in hindsight to maintain order in the courtroom and said, "Silence! Quiet! Quiet! ”

"So, may I ask Mr. Mai Sheng, where were you on the night of the crime? What are you doing? Bidley asked.

"That night, I was a little bored, so I drove Mr. Shi's car......"

"Against!" Qu Keming interrupted Mai Sheng loudly, "This is the most common in all kinds of traffic accidents and drunk driving cases, the suspect is looking for someone to carry the bag, but in this case, the defense lawyer is very shrewd to find a person who looks like a twin brother with the defendant to carry the bag." ”

The presiding judge looked at Bi Delu, who was calm and smiling, and then frowned and looked at Shi Tianci and Mai Sheng, who were difficult to distinguish between truth and falsehood, and finally said to Qu Keming: "Opposition is invalid!" Witnesses may continue to answer questions from defence counsel. ”

Bi Delu smiled and nodded: "Then Mr. Mai, please continue." ”

"I drove Mr. Shi's car that night......"

"Is it the limited-edition yellow BMW?" Bidley's interjection sounded more like a supplement to the testimony of witnesses.

"Yes." Although Mai Sheng's voice was not loud, it was enough for everyone present to hear clearly, "I drove his yellow BMW and wandered around the street......

"Is it just hanging out?" "Forgive me for taking the liberty of asking, you said you were a little bored, did you drink?" ”

"Yes, it was boring at the time, so, I drank it." Mai Sheng replied with some slurring.

"Did you really drink, and you drank while driving?"

"Hmm...... Right! ”

Listening to Bi Delu's persuasion and Mai Sheng's "telling the truth", Long Xirui basically understood the true meaning of Bi Delu's sentence "hiding from the sky and crossing the sea". With Mai Sheng, a stand-in like Ke (Ke) Long, all the photos and videos of the police that were originally ironclad have lost their value as physical evidence.

As soon as the physical evidence was overturned, Bidley quickly mentioned the witnesses again: "Presiding Judge, I hope to call the prosecution witnesses again to appear in court and confront the defense witnesses in court." ”

The presiding judge glanced at Qu Keming, who was confused by Bidelu's surprise evidence, and said: "Agree to the request of the defense lawyer and summon the prosecution witnesses to appear in court again." ”

Wu Bi and Da Huo stared at Mai Sheng almost sideways with a look of surprise that they had never seen before as they walked onto the prosecution witness stand, and Wu Bi even took two steps before turning back.

"Again, please answer the question from the prosecution lawyer," said Bidley, "Is the drunk driver you both saw on the night of the crime in the courtroom now?" ”

Wu Bi and Da Huo moved their mouths, but they didn't make a sound, and then glanced at each other.

"What? Now that's not a good question to answer? Bidreux asked with a smile.

"In!"

Wu Bi and Da Huo said almost in unison, and at the same time, one pointed at Shi Tianci, and the other pointed at Mai Sheng, but as soon as they saw the other party's choice, one moved their finger to Mai Sheng, and the other moved their finger to Shi Tianci.

Bidreux squinted and smiled: "Then let me ask another question, how many drivers did the two of you see at that time?" Is it one or two? ”

"One." Wu Bi replied without thinking.

Da Huo also echoed: "One car, of course, only one driver!" ”

"Presiding Judge, I don't have a problem." After speaking, Beard walked leisurely back to his defense bench.

"Prosecution lawyer, do you have any questions about the defense lawyer's evidence?" The presiding judge asked routinely.

Qu Keming bit his lip and said "no" unwillingly.

Next, to enter the adjournment, Long Xirui noticed that Wu Bi and Da Huo found themselves and Ouyang Ruosi in the auditorium before leaving, and the expressions on the faces of the two people were surprised, and they were even more strange, it seemed that the two of them deliberately did not propose to meet themselves that night.

With years of experience as a private detective, Long Xirui believes that the only thing that can distinguish the real murderer from Shi Tianci and Mai Sheng is the wine bottle that Shi Tianci was carrying when he was drunk and driving, with Shi Tianci's fingerprints on it. However, based on the testimony of Wu Bi and Da Huo, as well as the eyes of the two when they looked at him, Long Xirui can speculate that Da Huo did not hand over the wine bottle to the police as evidence.
