Chapter 53 It's Difficult to Stand Up

Although the evidence held by the police is sufficient to convict them, the confession of the parties is still very strong evidence, and can even affect the final evaluation of the judge, because in addition to trafficking, they are also involved in crimes such as rape and abuse.

But no parent would want their child to testify. Cong Jun’s big boss came over to pick up his daughter in a hurry and even gave him a hush money. He didn’t want anyone to know that his child had such an unbearable experience. experience.

The other parents also had the same attitude. They came all the way to pick up their children, thank you very much, but every pair of parents picked up their children as quickly as possible.

Liu Yu was very angry about this matter: "Obviously we have persuaded them, we don't need the child to appear in court, we just need a statement, why did we suddenly change our mind?"

"Poor parents all over the world." Chang Yan sighed, "There is no way to do this."

Wu Tao usually doesn't like to talk, so he couldn't help but open his mouth at this time: "I heard that they hired a famous lawyer?"

Chang Yan nodded: "Yes, it is very famous, the kind that can turn black into white for money."

Bai Ping also stopped typing on the keyboard: "Then there is nothing we can do?"

"Everything has been handed over to the court." Chang Yan let out a sigh of relief, "The next thing is beyond our control."

Liu Yu was expecting another miracle, so her first reaction was to ask the captain: "Hey, where's the captain?"

Jing Chu is talking to Xiao Qi right now.

Xiaoqi is different from other children with parents. She is an orphan. She was raised by her grandmother when she was young. When she was 15 years old, her grandmother passed away. Someone picks her up, and Chang Yan keeps her at home during this time.

Today she wore a thick padded jacket, hid at the stairs and called Jing Chu out in a low voice, and the two of them talked in the empty office.

After hearing her intention of coming, Jing Chu had a complicated expression on his face: "Is this your decision?"

"Yes, I accidentally overheard Miss Chang calling you yesterday." Xiaoqi seemed a little embarrassed, "I decided to do that myself, and I've already thought about it."

Jing Chu said: "Do you know what you will face?" He looked at the thin girl in front of him, and said slowly, "You will tell all the terrible things you have encountered in front of many people, and the other party's lawyer will ask you how much you are very sorry. Very sharp and embarrassing questions, questioning your intentions, doubting your rhetoric, making you worthless, and even turning the truth upside down, saying that you voluntarily accepted it, and that his client was seduced by you, do you understand? "

Jing Chu is very aware of what will happen in court. There was once a girl who was determined to stand up in court and tell the misfortune she had encountered, but the opposing lawyer was so sharp and asked such harsh questions. He still remembers it to this day. :
"Did he undress you, or did you undress yourself?"

"Aren't you trying to seduce him?"

"You gave up your resistance, and you voluntarily had sex with him."

Obviously the girl said that she gave up her resistance because she was threatened and afraid of being killed, but when it came to the lawyer's mouth, it was she who voluntarily had sex with the other party.

The girl was in a mess and was criticized, and the scum was so proud that she was not sentenced at all.

Later, the girl committed suicide.

Xiaoqi looked at him in shock: "... Could it be like this?"

"Yes, you will suffer a hundred times more serious humiliation than this, so I don't recommend you to testify in court."

Xiaoqi clenched her hands tightly and twisted her fingers: "But, if I don't testify, won't they be convicted of a felony?"

"That's up to the judge. We will do our best. I'm very glad that you are willing to stand up and testify." Jing Chu said gently, "But I personally don't suggest you do that, although this suggestion has something to do with my profession. It doesn't match, I still want to say that, you are a strong child, you still have a future, I hope you can forget about this matter and start your life again."

Xiaoqi plucked up her courage: "I'm not afraid. I want those people to be punished. I want to do something for myself and others. I don't want them to get away with it."

Jing Chu was silent for a moment, and said, "I still suggest you think about it."

But Xiaoqi has already made up her mind: "I know this is not an easy task, but during that time, I was thinking every day, if I could get revenge, what would I do, every day I wondered if I could take it It’s okay to stab them to death with a knife, but no, I’m afraid, I don’t dare.” At this point, her body trembled slightly, “But now, I just want to stand up, why don’t I, I want to let them know, What kind of things that group of people have done to us, captain, I am not afraid, I am not afraid of losing face, I am only one person, I am not afraid."

Her pretending to be strong made Jing Chu very sad. For a while, he thought of Yang Mianmian.

"If you really decide, I will find someone to simulate the questions that the opposing lawyer will ask you. If you think you can't bear it, you can stop at any time. Xiaoqi, you are already very brave. If you Repentance, each of us can understand."

"No, I've made up my mind."

Everyone in the special case team was surprised and moved when they learned that Xiaoqi was willing to testify. Chang Yan and Jing Chu had the same opinion, and they didn't want Xiaoqi's life to suffer further twists and turns. She had already experienced enough What a pity, it would be best if she could start a new life quietly.

Everything repeated in court may break her down.

But Xiaoqi was very brave: "I'm not afraid." She gave them confidence in that way.

Jing Chu and Chang Yan spent a lot of effort and time on the simulated answering. Every question Jing Chu asked was very embarrassing and hit people's hearts. Chang Yan stood by and held Xiaoqi's hand, crying several times. Come on, she said to Jing Chu: "I hope she can give up, we are the only ones here, but in front of so many people, I really can't imagine what kind of courage it takes to say that kind of thing over and over again, I Not as brave as her."

But Xiaoqi survived, even when they thought she would give up in the next second, she didn't.

"Can you recount what happened that day?"

"I was taken into the room and he raped me."

"Are you sure it was rape? You didn't resist."

"He threatened to kill me if I resisted."

"Did he hit you?"

"beated."

"How did you hit you?"

"He dragged my hair, kicked my stomach, I begged him not to hit me, he slapped me, kicked me away and hit me on the head with his fist."

Standing on the witness stand, Xiaoqi was calmly and almost coldly recalling all the misfortunes she had encountered in the past year. Those unsightly scenes and those hard-to-recall pasts were dissected bit by bit, revealing In front of so many people.

She has no privacy at all.

She was surrounded by everyone's eyes like a monkey.

Liu Yu had already cried several times, and secretly left the table and walked away. Chang Yan kept biting her lip, her back tensed.

But the old fifth over there answered his lawyer's question in a blunt manner: "No, I didn't, she took off her clothes and begged me to fuck!"

"Scum!" Chang Yan slammed the chair hard.

"Calm down." Jing Chu whispered, "It's only just begun."

It was a long and arduous struggle. Although the opposing lawyer was eloquent and tried to reverse the facts, from the beginning to the end, Xiaoqi's emotions were very stable and she was not defeated, and the plaintiff's evidence was very abundant.

In the end, Boss Cao and four others were sentenced to death as the ringleaders of the trafficking gang, and the rest were sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment ranging from 20 to [-] years.

The result was quite satisfactory, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

At the gate of the court, Chang Yan hugged Xiao Qi who came out: "You did a great job, I'm proud of you."

"We are all proud of you, you are so brave." Liu Yu's eyes were still red, like a rabbit, "No, Captain, you must treat your guests to a big meal! We have to celebrate!"

Xiaoqi had been crying a long time ago, but they laughed and cried. After crying and laughing for a while, she looked at Jing Chu, as if she was waiting for his evaluation.

Jing Chu smiled at her: "You are a strong and good boy."

Xiaoqi smiled through her tears, and hugged Chang Yan: "Thank you, Sister Chang." Then went to hug Jing Chu, "Thank you, Captain."

Jing Chu was startled by her embrace and took half a step back. Liu Yu laughed and teased him, "Why do I feel that from Mian Mian onwards, Captain, you seem to be very popular with little girls... Mian Mian?"

Jing Chu just wanted to laugh and scold "Don't talk nonsense", when he heard her call Yang Mianmian, he turned his head subconsciously, and saw Yang Mianmian standing on the steps not far away, looking at them.

He watched her eye sockets turn red a little bit with his own eyes, and for a moment he felt at a loss, like walking over but felt it was too rash.

She didn't say anything, but turned around and left. His thin back made his eyes sore. He didn't know why, but he just felt that she had been wronged, and he really couldn't bear it.

"I have something to do." He whispered something, and hurriedly followed.

Liu Yu was at a loss: "What is this?"

Yang Mianmian walked very fast, but unfortunately her legs were short, so Jing Chu caught up with her without much effort: "Mianmian?"

"Don't talk to me, or I can't help but kill you." She said with a sullen face, almost gnashing her teeth.

Jing Chu didn't know where he had provoked her at all: "What happened?"

"I told you not to talk to me!" She went into a rage, and turned her head to look at him fiercely.

Jing Chu had never seen her lose her composure so much, and her heart kept sinking.

Yang Mianmian held back tears, anxious to get rid of him, so instead of walking, he climbed over the wall, and the people who were up and down disappeared.

She was extremely wronged in her heart, and she didn't know why she was wronged. Anyway, when she saw Xiaoqi rushing to hug him, her heart was almost bubbling with jealousy.

It's really pissed off.She returned home in a daze, threw herself on the bed and burst into tears.

The pillow was soaked by her tears, and she didn't dare to say anything. Everyone was cautious and dared not speak.

Pillow finally couldn't help but opened his mouth, and when he spoke, he cried: "Mianmian〒▽〒Don't cry, I'm going to cry when you cry."

"...I thought he should like me." Yang Mianmian pursed her lips, her eyes blurred by tears.

She thought that he should like her.But just at that moment, she was not sure.

Why did Jing Chu treat her well?He seemed to have been kind to her from the very beginning. It was not a man's love for a woman, but his own respect and care for the weak, women and children.

This is his beautiful character, just as he will help Xiaoqi selflessly.

That wasn't the only care and care he gave her. This knowledge made the pride and complacency in her heart collapse in an instant.

In this world, no one really likes Yang Mianmian, just her alone.

She was still a child that no one loved.
