437 The vinegar-filled courtroom

Isaac sat on the side like an old man, watching Vickers pluralize his feelings, and felt that he was surging with emotion like a drama actor. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

Vickers really hated Frederick to the bone marrow, and finally seized the opportunity, so he worked very hard, and the reality of Felia being ruined by Frederick also touched Vickers's sore spots, and made him accuse him to death.

Frederick looked indifferently at Vickers, who was in tears, and waited for him to present human and physical evidence—for Frederick, there was nothing unexpected about this trial, it was just a formality. He had already adjusted his strategy, and squatting in prison had become part of his plan.

Then, the judge asked questions, and the defendant's defense argument was long-winded for a long time, and it was Vickers' turn to present human and physical evidence.

Vickers excitedly presented a large pile of evidence. Investigation documents of the gendarmerie. A finger-thick arraignment testimony. Authoritative report of positive doping reactions. Then a large number of witnesses were handed in, one by one, explaining the situation at that time. The vivid descriptions of the witnesses confirm Frederick's ability to commit crimes, his motives, and his space for committing crimes.

It wasn't until Xiaoqian testified in court that the situation changed. Xiao Qian's long skirt dragged to the ground, covered her white arms with long black lace gloves, and her long golden hair hung down to her waist. When she appeared in court, she was unusual, with her chin raised, no one in her eyes, reserved and confident, elegant, and did not reveal the slightest inferiority complex and cowardice.

When the judge questioned the testimony, Xiao Qian swore an oath not to commit perjury, and then eloquently described the harmonious atmosphere with Frederick, explained the details of the discussion with Frederick about funding public schools, and while speaking, he glanced at Frederick and praised him sincerely: "The Count is not only polite, but also cares about public education, and is very attentive in recruiting people and attracting investment, which makes people's hearts bloom." She smiled at her lips, and suddenly a hundred flowers bloomed, and the jury felt warm like spring.

She is good at acting, even if she is afraid of being touched by Frederick in private, she will perfectly play the role of the countess, and manage the self-confident, elegant, willful and rich character impeccably.

Frederick looked up and saw Elena glaring at him viciously, and he was full of jealousy.

He couldn't help but retort to Xiao Qian: "You're lying." You are a very contradictory person, when talking about investment, you said ambiguous things, which caused our talks to fall apart, so you have been avoiding me, refusing to even look at me in the crowd, and now you are praising me, which is unreasonable. You also said contradictory things, because you left in anger that day, you should hate me to the bone, but in the court, you said something 'heartbroken', which is obviously inconsistent. ”

Frederick looked at the court and said seriously: "Please consider the above facts comprehensively in court." ”

He pretended to look at the courtroom, but he was glancing at the Empress, and he was relieved to see that Elena's flushed face had softened a little.

Xiao Qian saw that he didn't appreciate it seriously, his heart seemed to be pressed on a soldering iron, obviously he was approaching, but he was scalded to "squeak" and smoke, and his nose was so red in pain, but he adhered to the pride of the actor, held his face wantonly, and said with tears in his eyes: "His Royal Highness Frederick is the dream lover of the city, is no one allowed to follow the crowd?"

The recorder sneered. The jury whispered envy, making fun of Frederick's good fortune.

Frederick left the witness stand and saw that Xiao Qian's eyes were shining, and there were water droplets refracting the light of diamonds, and wondered why she was crying, and became more and more puzzled about not understanding this person, and gradually became vigilant and stopped talking.

Elena stared at Frederick vigorously, the vinegar volatile and diffuse, thick enough to corrode the frescoes on the dome, and Frederick bit her lip and looked at her aggrievedly and thought, "It's really none of my business." ”

The empress was helpless and turned her head to look at Xiaoqian. Xiao Qian is like a dog, can smell the sour, immediately raised her head to stare at the empress, so angry that the empress bared her teeth and tilted her head, glaring at Xiao Qian hard; Xiao Qian has never seen any battles, even the Emperor Fran was raised by her, where would she be afraid of the imperial power, immediately raised her head, and looked at Elena violently, and the woman was tense as soon as she confronted each other, and her eyes "crackled" in the air and sparks.

At this point, Vickers questioned the witness: "The on-site investigation team detected doping ingredients in the drink. Frederick entered the room after you, do you think Frederick had time to manipulate the cup?"

Xiao Qian smiled mischievously according to the predetermined line: "Do you have any of these things? If only I put them! ”

The jury laughed, and the Secretary for Justice openly pointed at Frederick and shouted, "Did you hear that?" Get married!"

Frederick's face flushed. He knew that the more he depicted, the darker it became, so he refused to answer, and silence was golden.

So far, no one in the jury wants to believe that Xiaoqian did something.

Elena trembled angrily, pressed her bulging chest, tried to breathe steadily, and snorted hard and deliberately coldly: "This is the highest judicial hall, when there is a noise, shouldn't the chief justice strike the hammer? Or does the law actually vary from person to person, and when he sees that the boss is messing around, the judge will not dare to be impartial?"

Now that the empress is in power, Francis didn't dare to be naughty at all, so he quickly knocked on the gavel and coughed to the Secretary for Justice: "Silence." No noise. ”

The Secretary for Justice was in a hurry to gather momentum, and only then did he remember that he had angered the Empress and quickly reined in.

After Xiao Qian's testimony was completed, on the way out of the courtroom, she was getting farther and farther away from Frederick, and the pain of her burned heart gradually subsided, but a wisp of spider silk was pulling tightly and straightening between the two, and the fresh sorrow tugged at her heart, making her feel like numb and full of mixed feelings; Breschroeder greeted her outside, obviously giving her a thumbs up and cheering for her, but she had a blank tear on her face, and she did not come back to her senses.

"Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?" Breschroeder knew that Xiao Qian was about to collapse. For the first time, he saw Xiao Qian's true expression.

Xiao Qian suddenly realized that she was seen by others, and hurriedly turned her head and wiped her face, trying to force a smile, but she was so exhausted that she had no strength to perform, she seemed to have failed by default, and threw down a sentence bluntly and sadly: "Don't let me get involved with him anymore!" Then he lowered his head and rubbed his face, and walked away quickly.

Braischroeder stared at Xiao Qian's back, and his heart did not fluctuate; He was even glad that Xiao Qian collapsed not too early or too late, and completed the last task just right, which was exactly the same as in his calculation, which was a complete and gratifying congratulations.

Because Braischroeder knew Frederick, he knew that Xiaoqian would suffer these setbacks, and it was because of Xiaoqian's failure that Braischroeder's success was possible. Stepping on others to climb to the top of the tower has become his habit.

He didn't feel the slightest pity for Xiao Qian. On the contrary, even the demigods have been reduced to pawns in his hands, which makes him satisfied.

The next stepping stone was Frederick's turn. Braischroed's expectations were not high, he only needed to convict Frederick, and giving him a sentence that was neither long nor short would be enough for the capitalists to do a great job; perhaps a year later, when Frederick came out of prison, the world had become a world of money, patriotism, the pursuit of glory, and the national spirit had all fallen one by one, and money had become the only criterion for measuring morality, and Frederick could only grow old in that era.

The old man was looking forward to it. He pondered quietly and waited patiently outside. (To be continued.) )
