……

Back row of hearing seats.

Among the students of the University of Tokyo Law School, Jia Meimei also came.

And once she arrives, then her three licking dogs will naturally arrive.

"Today I'm going to see how that slut loses!"

For Alice, Jia Meimei did not hide her disgust and jealousy, and her eyes looking at the defense bench were full of unhappiness.

"Don't worry, she can't win this case!"

"Yes, Mr. Luo said that this case has no need to be fought, unless the ace barrister comes out in person, no one can handle it!"

"Yes, yes, Meimei, don't worry, classmate Du lost today, and after she loses, you win her again in the debate competition, then you can taunt her twice."

The dog licking trio, Jin Peng, Wang Qingshi and Chen Baixiang, naturally nodded and patted their ass.

"Well, that's good!"

Jia Meimei is in a very happy mood at the moment, who let her have a licking dog by her side to protect her, it feels so good to be coaxed.

Of course, when it comes to licking dogs, you can't get used to them, you have to be gracious and powerful, otherwise these licking dogs are easy to kick their noses and faces.

So Jia Meimei just nodded, and she didn't smile at the three of them licking the dog.

"Anyway, who are the people around Teacher Luo, I know that maid, it's the slut's follower, what about the others?"

When the dog licking trio heard this, they looked at Luo Xiaoxiang's row.

Teacher Luo and Tracy were in the row, in addition to them, there were Qi Zhengtian, Zhang Yi, Mengluo and Momo.

"Oh, I know those two girls, they are from our School of Finance and Economics of Dongda University, and they seem to be clerks of Du's law firm."

Momo and Mengluo were the first to be pointed out.

Hearing this, Jia Meimei looked disdainful: "Hehe, I really thought that after getting the certificate, I could run my own law firm, I heard that her law firm has not opened until now, I am waiting to see the joke of that slut, and then I can mock her for the third time!" ”

Opening a law firm is really taken for granted.

Jia Meimei said that there are thousands of law firms in Dongfang City, how many of them can survive a year, and those small law firms are as fleeting as meteors in the universe.

Those who can really survive for a long time are opened by people who have the ability.

If Alice is a big law firm, or has barristers around to help you, you may be able to rely on the barrister's connections and resources to stay afloat.

But the question is, do you have one?

Jia Meimei could already predict that Alice's law firm would close down due to poor management, and she was finally devastated.

That picture, it's cool to think about~

"That man, I remember, he is Qi Zhengtian, the criminal prosecution boss of the Dongmen District Prosecutor's Office, and he is also a senior prosecutor!"

Among the dog licking trio, someone also recognized Qi Zhengtian.

"It's a senior prosecutor!"

Seeing that the other party's identity was not bad, the dog licking trio looked at Qi Zhengtian's eyes, full of humility and respect.

After all, senior prosecutors, that's not ordinary people, how many students graduate from law school every year, how many people enter the inspection system, but the vast majority of people are just ordinary prosecutors all their lives.

"And what about the last one, which of you knows?"

Jia Meimei pointed to the row, the last one, with a strange expression.

"This ...... I don't seem to have seen this person, but he can talk to Mr. Luo and Qi Gaojian, so he should also be an insider, right? ”

The dog licking trio doesn't seem to have seen Zhang Yi before, so they don't know each other at all.

"Really?" Jia Meimei looked at Zhang Yi and kept a heartfelt eye.

However, she saw that Zhang Yi was sitting with Tracy, Momo and others, and she should guess that he was from Alice's Law Firm.

It's Alice's person, then it's fine.

Anyway, Alice is a small law firm, what powerful people can there be?

And at this moment, Zhang Yi didn't know that he had been targeted.

He was watching the field intently.

On the defense bench, Alice, dressed in a white suit, was sorting out her Chinese documents.

She rotated, aligned, rotated, aligned, rotated......

"Good guy, how nervous is this......"

When Zhang Yi saw this scene, he immediately complained.

Next door, Mr. Luo also saw this scene.

"Students, when you go to court in the future, remember to overcome the tension in your heart, and don't repeat a certain action in your hands like classmate Du, which will let others see your inner tension, which is a disadvantageous factor for you and for the parties."

I have to say that it is worthy of Mr. Luo, even such a small detail has become the subject of his lecture.

Unfortunately, Alice has become a negative textbook.

"Those who are afraid of battle are a sign of weakness!" Qi Zhengtian, who was sandwiched between Zhang Yi and Luo Xiaoxiang, suddenly snorted coldly.

"Qi Gaojian, it's boring for you to say this, and can you stop looking at Tracey, you two are not young, you ......"

Before Zhang Yi finished speaking, he was forced to retreat by a sharp look from Tracy.

But the latter's heart at the moment was also speechless.

What's going on with the man next door, who is not good, you have to look at yourself?

Do I have flowers on my face, or do you have some special fetishes for maids?

Isn't there an ancient adage in the Dragon Kingdom, called "Don't Look at Indecency"?

Believe it or not, I'm blind in your glasses, I ......

Tracy had been talking cruelly in her heart for a long time, but finally chose to endure it.

After all, she is the head maid of the Nouvel family, the personal maid and etiquette teacher of the family's daughter-in-law, Miss Alice.

With a heavy responsibility, she has to maintain a ladylike demeanor in front of Miss Alice at all times, so she endures!

Qi Zhengtian didn't know that he almost lost his eyes just now.

But his eyes just couldn't see filthy people and things, so he focused his attention on the clean and tidy maid beside him.

Thankfully, the time has finally come.

"All stand up, let us invite the honorable Judge Chen Rushan to enter!"

The courtroom suddenly fell silent, and under the announcement of the court guards, a middle-aged man wearing a pitch-black robe with a serious face walked into the courtroom.

Although Chen Rushan and Chen Ruhai are twin brothers, their personalities are two extremes.

At least, this Judge Chen Rushan is very ...... Words are like gold.

He walked up to the judgment seat, looked around the audience, and then said in a cold voice:

"Sit!"

A simple word made everyone feel the seriousness of Judge Chen Rushan.

After everyone sat down, they all looked at him.

"Claim!"

Two more words, but they are enough to explain the meaning.

on the hearing bench.

"Students, the next step is one of the pre-trial procedures, and both sides have affirmed their court defenses."

The first to explain was Luo Xiaoxiang, Judge Chen cherished words like gold, but he was not, as a teacher at the law school, he naturally had to give the students the necessary interpretation.

"Teacher Luo, what do you think Du will affirm?"

"It should be to fight for a commutation of sentence, after all, the first verdict is guilty, so as an ordinary defense lawyer, after getting the opportunity for a retrial, he will try his best to reduce the sentence, which will be relatively less difficult."

"Is the sentence commuted, why can't it be innocent?"

"It's too difficult to be innocent, you have to persuade 12 jurors to vote not guilty together, it's really impossible, on the contrary, it is possible to reduce the sentence, after all, I have appealed, and the jury and the judge will also take into account the defense appeal, as far as possible within the scope of their ability, to give the parties a certain chance of leniency!"

Luo Xiaoxiang himself nodded subconsciously, because this was his judgment as a criminal law teacher with many years of experience.

Qi Zhengtian also heard what he said, and subconsciously nodded in agreement.

It is basically impossible to get acquitted, and fighting for a commutation of sentence is the most common routine used by the defense.

"Huh."

Zhang Yi sneered, and he didn't intend to deal with the group of people next door at all.

Now that Chen Ruhai has spoken, both sides of the court defense need to state their respective claims.

Ren Qianning was the first to stand up.

"Defendant Zhou Ping'an brutally killed the deceased Tan in the kitchen on the second floor of the commercial and residential apartment of the good taste hot pot restaurant three and a half months ago, the cruelty of the defendant's crime, the evidence is conclusive, I ask the court to uphold the original verdict and uphold the guilty verdict Oh, the defendant Zhou Ping'an's homicide crime is not worthy of any commutation, let alone forgiveness!"

Ren Qianning said her claim with a serious face, upheld the original verdict, the defendant was convicted of homicide, and he had to be sentenced heavily!

Now, all the pressure is on the side of the defense.

Under the watchful eyes of the audience, Alice stood up cautiously.

What to do, I'm so nervous!

Everyone was looking at me, and I was so panicked, and I was so panicked......

"Quick!"

Seeing that Alice couldn't say a word for a long time, Chen Ruhai scolded coldly.

It's a simple word, but it's stressful enough.

Alice was so frightened that her hands almost trembled, but she still raised her head with difficulty and faced Chen Rushan.

"I ...... We request ...... Not guilty defense! ”

As soon as this remark came out, the audience was in an uproar.

Not guilty plea?

It's still a not guilty defense!

You little girl cowered, but she said the most ruthless thing in the audience.

"Really?" Chen Rushan stared at Alice, and a trace of surprise appeared on his stubborn face like a mountain cliff.

Everyone in the audience didn't dare to say that the person concerned was innocent, but you wanted to go against the sky?

"The defense once again affirms that we will defend not guilty!"

It may have been the first time she was nervous, but this second time, Alice was already able to respond a little calmly.

Chen Rushan did not reconfirm, but wrote a note in the notebook, which can be regarded as a note of the defense's claims.

On the hearing seat, Mr. Luo Xiaoxiang's side was a little silent.

Slap in the face!

As soon as the front foot finished speaking, the defense would choose to reduce the sentence as appropriate, and the back foot was slapped in the face.

And it's a slap in the face on the spot!

"Teacher Luo, classmate Du, she ......"

"Ahem, Xiao Du looks full of confidence......"

Luo Xiaoxiang sighed with emotion, and then laughed: "Young people are not vigorous, can they be called young people?" ”

"I'm afraid that I am too vigorous, but I will let the party fall into a catastrophe!" Qi Zhengtian on the side smiled and said casually.

"Qi Gaojian, ...... you" Luo Xiaoxiang turned his head and was speechless for a while.

You said you picked me up, why did you still look at the maid next door?

Am I so unsightly to you?

If this was not a courtroom, Qi Zhengtian would definitely answer yes.

You Luo Xiaoxiang is so unsightly, I look at your messy body and get annoyed.

Tracy: I don't care if there's a disciple next to me, I don't care, I don't care......

What are these two guys doing next door?

Zhang Yi also noticed the abnormality around him, and subconsciously smacked his lips, but his attention was still on the court.

Because after the statement of the court defense is completed, the next step is the most important pre-trial link.

Pick the right jurors.

"Up!"

Chen Rushan shouted to the candidate jurors, and all the jurors walked up to the stage.

The Criminal Division will generally select 12 jurors, and there may be 30-50 prospective jurors for you to choose from.

Of course, sometimes the court session is rushed, and there may only be 20 jurors, but you will definitely have enough choice.

"Here's the big show, students!"

Luo Xiaoxiang saw this scene and hurriedly began to explain.

"This is a crucial step in the criminal and civil litigation courts, where both the prosecution and defense will ask questions of the jury to select the jurors they are satisfied with."

"To put it simply, ordinary lawyers will screen jurors based on their occupations, hobbies, and other information in the background investigation materials, and the jurors screened in this way are actually not very helpful for the trial, and many of them vote with the crowd."

"A really powerful lawyer will ask very targeted questions based on the situation on the scene and the information of the case, so that the jurors who are selected according to the answers will definitely be a great help for you in this round of court defense!"

Teacher Luo said, emphasizing again and again: "But this point, for you now, is still a little too early, if you appear in court for the first time, it is better to screen according to the jury's background information." ”

After hearing this, all the students nodded subconsciously.

Although I didn't understand it, I nodded my head.

Teacher Luo said, looking next door.

"Qi Gaojian, has the prosecutor Ren prepared a corresponding question?"

"Of course!"

Qi Zhengtian still didn't turn his head, but a hint of confidence appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Ren Qianning naturally prepared questions, and with her own help, she prepared some good questions.

Ren Qianning may be a rookie, but Qi Zhengtian is not!

So on stage.

Ren Qianning took the lead in getting up, took out the notebook prepared in advance, and walked to the candidate jury.

"What do you think about juvenile delinquency, jurors?"

As soon as this remark came out, the jury did not react much, but Zhang Yi on the hearing bench raised his eyebrows.

That's it?

The purpose of this question is too obvious.

"This ......"

Teacher Luo really noticed it, turned his head to look behind him, and popularized science: "At first glance, this question doesn't seem to have anything to do with this case, but it actually has a lot to do with it!" ”

The students didn't understand that this case was obviously a murder case, so how could it be related to juvenile crime?

"Juvenile delinquency is actually just a pretense, and the real purpose of the prosecution is actually to pick out radical or conservative people, and juvenile delinquency is just an excuse."

"If the jurors are radicals, they will definitely not show a high tolerance for juvenile delinquency, while relatively conservative people will adopt a soft policy and have a high tolerance for juveniles."

Teacher Luo explained with a smile: "In the pre-trial, there are usually selective questions, and the first question of the prosecutor is to screen out the intended jurors she needs, and the purpose is very strong!" ”

The students all started taking notes, after all, this was a courtroom battle, and they had never experienced it on campus.

However, after Teacher Luo finished explaining, he looked at Ren Qianning again.

The purpose of the question is strong, and it is easy for the defense to notice it, and Ren Qianning obviously made such a mistake, but considering that both sides are rookies, Xiao Du may not be able to detect it.

"My attitude towards juvenile delinquency is zero tolerance!" A man said, his face becoming serious.

Ren Qianning immediately put "√" on the notebook for this juror.

"The defense dismissed this juror!"

But as soon as the hook was finished, Alice suddenly stood up and interrupted.

Ren Qianning was stunned, why did you react so quickly?

Chen Rushan, who was on the trial bench, also glanced at Alice, and then waved his hand to the man on the jury seat.

The man left the table.

"This ......"

Teacher Luo felt that his face hurt a little.

Is this a Shenma situation?

I was eye-catching again, and I saw it wrong?

Why does this face hurt a little today?

Alice, what's your situation, you are obviously a rookie in the court, why do you behave like a court veteran driver today?

Fortunately, he didn't set up any flags, although he was complaining frantically in his heart, his expression was quite calm.

"Teacher Luo, why is your face pumping?" A sharp-eyed classmate immediately asked.

"Oh, I'm just curious, what will the prosecution do after the prosecution's purpose is seen through by the defense?"

"We're going to end the question!"

What should the prosecution do, of course, it will not do.

Ren Qianning finished asking questions and gave Alice the opportunity to ask questions from the screening jury.

"Now it's Xiao Du's turn, let's see how she asks questions, but as a newcomer to the court, I believe that Xiao Du should choose to ask some conservative questions."

Luo Xiaoxiang said, in order to hide the embarrassment in his heart, he hurriedly picked up the thermos cup at hand and planned to drink water.

Stop punching me in the face, stop hitting me in the face......

Stage.

Alice got up slowly, also holding a notebook in her hand.

She flipped through a page in her notebook with a look of shame on her face.

Because of the above problems, it is really difficult to talk about.

But the questions that should be asked still have to be asked, she has no experience at all, so the routine of asking questions still has to be provided by Zhang Yi.

In front of the audience's attention, Alice walked up to the jury candidates, and then opened her mouth.

"That, that, I'd like to ask...... Excuse me, have you ever eaten poached eggs? ”

As soon as these words came out, the audience was stunned!

Poof-

Not surprisingly, Mr. Luo on the hearing bench sprayed.

Attempted water drinking!

His eyes widened at the moment, and he shouted in his heart!

it! it! it!

Lying in a big groove, I said that I don't want to slap my face, Xiao Du, what do you mean!

Mr. Luo said that he is a lecturer in criminal law at the law school, so how can he take his classmates to watch a trial, and his face will be swollen?

What do you think you're asking?

Eating poached eggs?

What do you eat poached eggs......

Don't talk about Mr. Luo at this moment.

The audience was shocked.

This question even made Qi Zhengtian turn his head and look at Alice in the field.

Ren Qianning just sat down with her buttocks, and she almost had to stand up.

Chen Rushan, who was on the judgment seat, also widened his eyes in surprise.

The only thought in their minds was: Why is this question so bizarre?

Who would ask this kind of question in court!
