I don't know the East is white

Chapter 18 The Kindness of One Thought ([-])
Tang Jibai's silence about the "secret" caused the prosecutors to grab their sore feet and "beat" him violently.

"Justifiable self-defense should not be used as a shield for lynching and revenge! Li Dalong is the culprit who indirectly caused the defendant Tang Jibai to lose his father and mother when he was young. We have sufficient reasons to believe that the defendant is holding such hatred. After the other party has stopped the aggression, he still Driving the vehicle into the victim at high speed. Based on the premise that the defendant’s mental report is normal, he can completely predict the consequences of such an act, but he still chooses to execute it, with obvious subjective viciousness. He has violated Article 384 of the Criminal Law Article, the crime of intentional injury."

Dongfangchai silently drew a red line under the "crime of intentional injury" in the notes, and then it was her turn to cross-examine the defendant. "Before I ask questions, let me correct the public prosecutor's statement. The defendant's motives cannot be determined. Please don't have preconceived ideas. I would like to ask the defendant to state that if it is not for the purpose of recovering property, you are out of For what reason did you drive into Li Dalong?"

"There was a girl passing by, and Li Dalong tried to continue the robbery. I wanted to stop him."

"In other words, your purpose is to prevent him from continuing to commit crimes, and has nothing to do with the 'secret' he told you?"

"Yes."

"Judge, please allow our witnesses to appear in court."

A girl who looked to be in her early 20s and wore a dark blue overalls timidly walked up to the witness stand holding the hem of her clothes.She wore two thick braids, and her hair was shiny and shiny. Although she was not beautiful, she had a simple appearance that was rarely seen in the city.

"Witness He Guihua, may I ask why you passed by the crime scene so late on the night of the crime?"

"I was on the night shift in the factory at the time, and I just got off work at twelve o'clock, and that was the place I had to go home."

"Understood. As far as I know, that day was payday in your factory. Did you carry your monthly salary with you at that time? How much is it in total?"

"Yes, the salary is 52. Plus I still have [-] yuan and [-] cents in my pocket." He Guihua is not a local, and she speaks with an accent that she doesn't know, and the word Mao is pronounced in the third tone.Low laughter came from the auditorium. I don't know whether it was laughing at her Mandarin or her ridiculously low salary.

He Guihua's hand holding the clothes tightened when she heard someone laughing at her.She was a little afraid to come to such a clean and bright place. She was always worried that if she accidentally got dirty, or if she accidentally said a wrong word, she would be laughed at like this.

Dongfangchai turned her head and glared at the jury, but her gaze didn't focus on anyone.But that invisible pressure made everyone in the hearing booth quiet down, with serious expressions on their faces, not daring to make mistakes.

Only then did Dongfangchai continue to ask: "If someone wanted to take your money at that time, would you give it?"

He Guihua clenched her pockets subconsciously: "I won't give it to death."

"Do you still remember the presiding judge, the public prosecutor, and everyone here? In the dash cam clip I just played in court, Li Dalong once said: 'I don't want to kill people, but no one stops me!' Judging from his ferocious behavior in the first two burglaries, it is not difficult to imagine that if my client did not stop him, a single girl with cash in her pocket in the suburbs at twelve o'clock at night would face the robbers. What is the result? An innocent young girl, a vicious criminal, my client just instinctively wants to protect another potential victim. Kindness should not be misinterpreted, and justice should not be punished!"

It has to be said that the steely and tough "Goddess of Justice" is also very good at stirring up emotions, Ding Changle quietly gave her a gesture of praise.Wei Wan in the hearing seat looked at Ding Changle who was smiling innocently, but his face was a bit gloomy.

Prosecutor Dong questioned the witnesses. "He Guihua, did you notice the defendant's car and the location of the victim when you passed by? Is there anything weird?"

"I remember that there was a big black car parked on the grass, and a man was standing in front of the car counting money. At that time, I thought it was strange to stand in the suburbs counting money in the middle of the night, and I was afraid, so I ran up and wanted to leave quickly."

"and then?"

"Then I heard a loud bang behind me, and there was a light coming. When I turned around, I saw the man who had just been knocked into the sky, and the banknotes were scattered all over the ground. There was also a man sitting in the driver's seat watching I."

"Do you see the man in the driver's seat is the person in the dock?"

He Guihua glanced from bottom to top, and glanced at Tang Jibai as if secretly inquiring.This man is handsome, and his long legs are particularly eye-catching.When I met him at the trial two years ago, he still had broken hair, but now that he has shaved his head, his temperament is no longer so gentle, but more masculine.He Guihua was taken aback, but Prosecutor Dong coughed lightly before she thought of answering: "Yes."

"That is to say, when the defendant hit the victim with his car, the witnesses turned their backs to them. Li Dalong is dead. What kind of circumstances did the defendant hit him with? What kind of psychology did he have? The witness is the same as us No way of knowing."

"Ah. Yes... No..." He Guihua was at a loss for what to do. She was so speechless when asked by the prosecutor two years ago.In the end, Tang Jibai was sentenced to life.She always felt that she owed him something. She knew that this man was a good man, but she didn't know how to convince the serious looking "officials" in the court.

Fortunately, Dongfang Bai stood up in time. "Although there is no proof of Li Dalong's death, the driving recorder can still restore the truth of the matter. Li Dalong stood in front of my client's car for two and a half minutes. If it is true according to what the public prosecutor said, he murdered passionately out of personal hatred, it would have been long before he jumped off the road. You can do it when you are in the car. Why did you wait so long until the witness, that is, He Guihua, passed by this place?"

Dongfangchai's plausible words infected He Guihua, and she sorted out her thoughts before speaking slowly. "My lord. Mr. Tang is a good man. Although he hit that person, the first thing he did when he jumped out of the car was to ask me to call an ambulance. I believe he didn't intend to hit that person to death."

He Guihua's words are very funny, just like in old Cantonese opera movies, calling the presiding judge and the public prosecutor to be adults.But she provided an important clue that was not mentioned before. Tang Jibai instructed her to make the emergency call to the hospital.

This testimony caught the prosecution by surprise. Prosecutor Dong frowned and turned his head to look at Dongfang Huo. The two whispered a few words.

"Taking a step back, even if the defendant finds out that Li Dalong is trying to rob He Guihua, he can stop him by calling the police, giving a verbal warning, etc., instead of hitting him to death. This is a blatant lynching."

"At that time, my client's mobile phone was thrown away by the criminals, otherwise he would not have called a witness to call an ambulance. In that case, he had no conditions to call the police, and he couldn't wait. In terms of physique and skill, Li Dalong is a man with at least one back. A gunman with five lives, do you want my client to use his bare hands, or use his mouth to persuade him to put down the butcher knife? Mr. Dong, although my client is a university professor, my eloquence is not so good."

There was a chuckle from the audience, and Prosecutor Dong's face turned blue, and he couldn't care less that the opponent was the daughter of his old boss.Following Dongfang's advice, he launched a fierce offensive. "The so-called robbery attempt is just the defendant's one-sided statement. Li Dalong had already robbed more than [-] yuan at the time. It is still unknown whether he would commit crimes twice at the same time. From the driving recorder, Li Dalong did not make any drastic acts other than looking at the witnesses." Behavior. The defendant’s judgment that Li Dalong would rob is his personal prejudgment. From the perspective of He Guihua, Tang Jibai’s behavior belongs to pre-defense. If we start from the robbery itself, this behavior belongs to post-event defense. Two kinds of defensive behavior They are not protected by law.”

The two sides fought inextricably, and the second round of defense was a draw.In the first round of defense, Dongfangchai was still slightly behind.The situation is not optimistic.

When it was time for the adjournment, the bailiff put handcuffs on Tang Jibai and took him away.The two women, Dongfangchai and Ding Changle, watched him leave with surprisingly consistent postures.

Ding Changle asked sullenly: "Sister, is this appeal dangerous?"

"Let's take a look as you walk." Dongfang Bai answered while lowering his head while tidying up the documents on the table.There was no dejection in the mood.

"Puff, puff, puff~" Wei Wan called her through the railing of the hearing seat.

Dongfang Chao turned his head and looked at him with the eyes of an idiot. "Are you a snake? Can't you call your name properly?"

"Isn't this in court? Don't make any noise. I'm going to leave early, so I won't go home with you."

Dongfang Bai raised his hand and glanced at his watch. "It's all ordered, Chen Changle, then let's go have a meal together."

"...It's Ding Changle." She corrected in a low voice. "I'm also in a hurry. Sister, if you have no other orders, I'll go back first."

Dongfang Bai looked at the two people who went out one after the other, and sighed. "Men don't want to stay in college."
