Crazy, You Call This a Trainee Lawyer

   Chapter 92 Aoki's Witness, My Witness! (Thanks to the low-key Mr. Gu's leader)

  Aoki Law Firm.

  Li Qingmu came to his office early in the morning, holding a tablet and watching intently.

  Consecutive words flashed on the computer screen, which was the live broadcast of today's trial.

  The court is an important judicial center. Without permission and authorization, no participant in the courtroom may make audio, video, photograph or use mobile communication tools to disseminate courtroom activities.

   So he watched the official text live broadcast. Although there were no pictures, some details of the court trial could be controlled.

   "The owner of the bar has come up. Although the testimony he can provide is relatively vague, I sent lawyer Zhuo to the court, thinking that the means of questioning should be able to leave the jurors with the concept of Kong Hang and his ex-girlfriend conspiring to rob!"

   Although Li Qingmu did not come to the scene, he sat in his office and planned the plan.

   He also liked this feeling very much, just like an ancient military advisor, although he was in the camp, he could decide the trend of the battle thousands of miles away.

  The court trial is the battleground for lawyers, and Li Qingmu will decide the outcome of this trial.

   Strategize and win thousands of miles, and it is yourself!

   Their Aoki Law Firm must not lose in the last battle near the end of the year, it's about face!

   And once he wins this important lawsuit from years ago, it will also be a perfect publicity for his lawyer Aoki.

   This case is their Aoki Law Firm’s annual finale battle!

   Once won, Aoki Law Firm will be able to gain popularity in Chengbei District and join the first echelon of law firms in Chengbei District.

  Li Qingmu is confident that with the influence of this trial, he will double the size of the law firm in the beginning of the year.

   At that time, Aoki Law Firm will be a business card of Chengbei District, and in three years, Aoki Law Firm will definitely be able to rank among the big law firms.

After   5 years, he was even able to covet the status of the top ten lines.

  The great cause is just around the corner!

  Li Qingmu thought of this and called his assistant.

   "Contact the editor-in-chief of the Chengbei Evening News. I want our name Aoki to be on the headlines of the evening news after the results of the court trial come out today!"

   "Okay, Lawyer Li!"

The assistant    started to work, and Li Qingmu once again focused his attention on the tablet in his hand.

   "Sister, don't let me down with you and Attorney Zhuo, he, Fang Wenbin, can't possibly ride on my head!"

   "As for Zhang Wei, it should be a coincidence of the same name and surname. After all, this name is so common, there are many people named Zhang Wei in the East..."

  …

   Chengbei District Court.

  The scene of the court hearing.

   The first witness for the defense was You, the owner of a trendy bar.

   Now Aoki's lawyer Zhuo is questioning him.

   "Ehang joined our bar about three months ago. I took the initiative to find him and the band and invited them to be the resident band of the trendy bar."

   "Boss You, does the defendant perform in your bar every day?"

   "That's not necessary. The band only needs to come four days a week. Our bar focuses on a new concept, not a mandatory seven-day working system, and there are other programs for the remaining three days."

   "That is to say, Kong Hang is relatively loose in terms of time, so your salary should be less than the rest of the entertainment industry in the surrounding area. After all, he only needs to work four days a week."

  The bar owner thought for a while and nodded: "Of course, but because of the schedule, I pay everyone in the band about 20% higher than other owners on the same street. This is also to prevent them from poaching."

   "Yes." Attorney Zhuo nodded, "But this salary is actually too little. It can only support Kong Hang's life, right?"

   "I don't know about this, but Kong Hang alone is definitely enough. I also reserved a lounge for them on the second floor of the bar. If they don't have a place to live, they can live upstairs."

   "But Kong Hang has a girlfriend, and the expenses have changed from one person to two people. There are more places to spend money, so the band's salary should not be enough!"

"be opposed to!"

   Attorney Zhuo's question was opposed by Zhang Wei.

   "Lawyer Zhang, do you want to oppose your own lawyer?"

"good!"

   Judge Qi in the bench glanced at Zhang Wei, this time he was not surprised.

   "Why?"

"I think the question asked by Lawyer Zhuo is somewhat insulting. My client insists on performing in a bar because of his musical dream, although he is paid a meager salary, and the income of this job is less than that of Lawyer Zhuo. One zero or two zeros, but for his dream of music, this insistence should not be measured by money!"

Zhang Wei said, and pointed to himself: "And me, although I am a public defender, I am currently accepting public interest cases and do not charge any attorney fees, but also no one can question my love for the law, This sincere relationship should not be measured by money and interests by people with a heart!"

   Judge Qi glanced at the jury bench, Zhang Wei's words really touched many people.

   "You're right, objections are valid!"

   He couldn't help but nodded in agreement.

   Then Judge Qi looked at Lawyer Zhuo and warned: "You better change the focus of your question. I don't want to hear you continue to inquire about the defendant's salary there."

   "Sorry, it's my fault!" Attorney Zhuo quickly admitted his mistake, looking at Zhang Wei with a hint of ill will.

   Few people dared to interrupt him like this, especially since the other party was a public defender who had only accepted a few cases, a newcomer.

   But he quickly suppressed Zhang Wei's influence and continued to look at the witness.

   "In that case, let me skip the previous questions. I would like to ask the witness, did you see that the defendant Kong Hang had contact with the previous witness, Qiu Tiantian?"

   "Yes, in my bar, Ah Hang and Qiu Tiantian met." The boss naturally wouldn't deny it and nodded in response.

   "When did they start contacting?"

  The boss thought for a while, "About a month ago, anyway, they meet almost every week."

   "Even if Kong Hang breaks up with his ex-girlfriend and starts dating with his current girlfriend, will they still meet?"

   "Yes, they still met, and the meeting place was at my bar."

   Hearing this answer, the eyes of many women on the jury changed.

  Scumbag!

  The eyes they looked at Kong Hang were already naked.

   After breaking up with his ex-girlfriend, he made a new girlfriend, but he was still hooking up with his ex-girlfriend.

   Qiu Tiantian testified before, some people may think it was the revenge of his ex-girlfriend, but now the testimony of the bar owner is iron proof.

   In the hearts of the jury, Kong Hang has been regarded as a scumbag.

   "Lawyer Zhang, don't you object?"

  Kong Hang felt the sight from all around him and felt a little uncomfortable, so he hurriedly asked Zhang Wei for help.

   "How to object?"

   Zhang Wei spread his hands, "That's the right question. Did you go to see your ex-girlfriend, and the agreed place was in the bar, so the witnesses answered all right?"

   Objections need reasons. The bar owner is telling the truth. You don’t have a B number in your heart?

   Kong Hang was helpless, he could only endure the sharp gaze from all directions and continued to sit.

   Attorney Zhuo's question continues.

   "So did you hear what they were discussing?"

   "I don't know that, because I won't inquire about other people's privacy, especially since Emirates has a new girlfriend, and I won't even inquire about what he does with his ex-girlfriend."

   The boss's answer was very honest, which made Kong Hang feel a little more at ease.

   "So is there such a possibility that Kong Hang is discussing with his ex-girlfriend how to rob the jewelry store where his current girlfriend works?"

   But the next problem is that Kong Hang cannot sit still.

   Attorney Zhuo's question was really surprising and directly attracted the attention of the audience.

   "Good question!"

   On the prosecution table, Fang Wenbin rarely spoke up, and even gave a compliment to the defense lawyer in his heart.

   This is the question he also wanted to ask, and it happened to be asked by the other party.

   "Objection, guide the witnesses to guess, there is no factual basis, the lawyer is testifying by himself!"

   Zhang Wei stood up to object, and there were naturally a lot of reasons.

   Witnesses told the truth before, which is of course not the case, but this time is different.

   "Your Honor, the defense retracts the question just now!"

   Attorney Zhuo quickly expressed his position, but looked at the jury at the same time.

   After he made this conjecture just now, several jurors nodded involuntarily, and his goal had been achieved.

   All he wants is to point out this event, point out this possibility!

   "We have no more questions about this witness!"

   Attorney Zhuo finished his question and returned to the seat beside Li Qinghe.

   "The prosecution?" Judge Qi looked at Fang Wenbin.

   "Judge Qi, the prosecution has no other questions about witnesses!"

   "It's rare that the prosecution doesn't conduct cross-examination." Judge Qi knew it well, but he still joked.

   "Then lawyer Zhang, how about you?" Then he looked at Zhang Wei.

   "I have only one question for the witness."

Zhang Wei walked up to the bar owner and asked: "Lawyer Zhuo asked a question just now, thinking that my client and ex-girlfriend met for collusion, so is there any other possibility, for example, my client just wants to get back what my grandma passed on to him? Where's the engagement ring, that's why you found your ex-girlfriend?"

   "Objection, hearsay evidence, no factual basis, lawyers are testifying by themselves!"

   Attorney Zhuo immediately stood up and objected with the same reasons as Zhang Wei just now.

   Judge Qi looked at Zhang Wei, but Zhang Wei continued to question the witness: "Please tell me, is this possible?"

   "There should be..." The bar owner didn't know how to answer, so he could only respond like this.

   "Your Majesty, I know what you're going to say, so I'll end the question, so I won't cause you any trouble!"

   Before the judge spoke, Zhang Wei also hurriedly ended the questioning and returned to the defense seat.

   Judge Qi opened his mouth and finally knocked on the cone helplessly: "Okay, then please leave the witness!"

  The bar owner took the stand, and lawyer Zhuo stood up again: "Your Majesty, the defense requests that our client Wang Xi be summoned to testify in court!"

   For this step, almost no one is surprised.

  Wang Xi stepped onto the witness stand.

   Attorney Zhuo got up, ready to ask questions.

  Zhang Wei saw this scene and turned to look at the hearing booth at the back.

   His eyes met Wang Dayang in the front row of the hearing room. The eyes of the two met in the air for a moment, and then nodded to each other.

   Between old comrades, just need a simple gesture to understand each other's meaning.

  Wang Dayang's voiceover: Don't worry, I have done everything I have to do, and I have said everything I have to say!

   Zhang Wei glanced past Wang Dayang and turned to the door of the courtroom, then he withdrew his gaze and returned to the courtroom.

   "Miss Wang Xi, please explain to everyone your relationship with the other defendant!"

   "I have been dating Kong Hang for almost half a year, and he is his current girlfriend."

   "Then, do you know that the defendant Kong Hang and his ex-girlfriend are still meeting?"

   "If I hadn't heard about it in court, I'd still be in the dark."

   Seeing Wang Xi say this, the people on the jury looked at her with sympathy.

  A woman who is deceived by a man is more likely to win sympathy.

   "Then Miss Wang, do you know if the defendant went out last Thursday, the day of the robbery?"

"I don't know, because we only came back from the South Island on Wednesday, and slept all day after that. When I woke up the next day, it was past six in the afternoon. After I ate some bread, I lay down and played for a while. Mobile phone, swiping web videos, and finally fell asleep again."

   "That is to say, you didn't leave the room all day when the crime happened, but you're not sure if your boyfriend Kong Hang is there?"

   "Yes, I didn't find him when I woke up."

   "Then why did you tell the people in the investigation department after the robbery happened that you and Kong Hang were both at home?"

   After this question, there was a brief silence.

   But lawyer Zhuo knew it, because he had already done several mock questions to Wang Xi to ensure that the other party's answer could attract the attention of the jury.

After thinking about it, Wang Xi lowered his head and said in a weak tone: "Because he is my boyfriend, I have to protect him. And in my heart, I don't believe that he is a man who can make That kind of person!"

   "That is to say, because of your new appointment to the other half, you chose to tell the Investigation Division something uncertain?"

"Yes, although I didn't know where he went at the time, he went to the downstairs supermarket to chat with the boss several times before, so I think he also went to the supermarket that day, just before the boss asked us about South Island travel. thing, so..."

   "Well, thank you for your answer!"

   Attorney Zhuo smiled slightly at Wang Xi, but he glanced at the jury from the corner of his eyes.

   He saw that all the female jurors showed sympathy for Wang Xi, and the male jurors also showed understanding.

   You're done!

   Attorney Zhuo is very satisfied with the effect of the questioning, and now the client Wang Xi's suspicion is completely eliminated.

   Next, it only needs to prove that Kong Hang has a ghost in his heart and that he is suspected of a crime is enough to convict him.

   To do this, we only need to wait for another defense lawyer, namely Zhang Wei, to let Kong Hang testify himself in court, and then we can use the cross-examination to pierce the other party's testimony!

   This time, he could feel that the prosecutor Fang Wenbin of the prosecution was also inclined to convict Kong Hang!

   As a result, Wang Xi was innocent and Kong Hang was convicted of robbery!

   Fang Wenbin got the culprit, and Aoki also helped the client get an innocence defense, everyone is happy!

   This one is already pretty sure.

   "As for the witness, we have no other questions!" Attorney Zhuo nodded towards the jury and returned to his seat.

   "The prosecution?"

   "Judge Qi, the prosecution has no problem!"

   Judge Qi has done this again, but he has to ask Fang Wenbin, this is the process.

   Then he looked at Zhang Wei and said with a smile, "Lawyer Zhang, although I won't favor either side in the trial, I have to admit that you are under a lot of pressure right now!"

   "Thank you for your concern, but I don't think I will lose!"

   "Okay, young people really have confidence!"

   Zhang Wei appeared in court and began to question.

   "Miss Wang, I don't make any comments on your previous performance. Now it's my turn to ask questions. I hope you can answer me honestly."

  Wang Xi raised his head and looked at Zhang Wei.

   "Excuse me, have you mentioned the engagement to my client?"

"Yes."

   "Then did he tell you that he would prepare an engagement ring?"

   "He said it, but his job..."

   "I know, you had doubts about whether my client could afford a ring, wasn't it?"

"Yes."

   "Then you know, he doesn't actually need to buy it because his grandma left him a ring?"

   As soon as these words came out, Wang Xi looked at Kong Hang in surprise.

   Obviously, she didn't know about it.

   "Actually, my client is not planning to buy a ring, but wants to get the ring back from his ex-girlfriend Qiu Tiantian and give this ring to you!"

  Zhang Wei said and joked: "Although it is a bit humiliating to ask for the gift that was sent out, it also shows that he is willing to be shameless for you. Doesn't this mean that he loves you?"

"This……"

  Wang Xi did not expect that such a thing would happen here.

   "So my client kept going to his ex-girlfriend without telling you the reason why he wanted to get the ring back, that's all."

   "But why didn't he tell me?"

   "It's very simple, I'm afraid you will misunderstand. After all, it's hard not to make people think about things like meeting an ex-girlfriend..."

   Zhang Wei said, but his words changed: "Of course there is a possibility that he wants to surprise you!"

surprise!

The words    touched a certain string in Wang Xi's heart. She looked at Kong Hang with a hint of enlightenment.

   At this moment, she seemed to understand that Kong Hang did not hesitate to go to see his ex-girlfriend and ask for the ring he gave back, but it was for himself.

   "I...I don't know...it's actually like this..."

"be opposed to!"

   Seeing that Wang Xi's emotions were out of control, Lawyer Zhuo stood up.

   "Anecdotal evidence, no third party can corroborate it!"

   Judge Qi showed a hint of helplessness, but nodded: "Although I don't want to interrupt, the objection is valid!"

   "Miss Wang Xi, my client has always cared about you, so please trust him too?"

  Zhang Wei said and nodded to Wang Xi, then walked back to his place.

   "Your Honor, I have no further questions about this witness."

   Hearing Zhang Wei say this, lawyer Zhuo and Li Qinghe on the defense stand looked at each other.

  The two were worried about something, but they finally laughed when they saw that Zhang Wei had "nothing to do".

   Next, just wait for Zhang Wei to call the last witness to appear in court...

   "Your Majesty, I know what you are going to ask. We have one last witness to call!"

   Before Judge Qi could speak, Zhang Wei had already stood up.

   "Okay, but you have to be careful. The prosecution and the two people around you are already gearing up. Can your defendant bear it?"

   "Your Excellency the judge seems to have misunderstood. I didn't say that my witness was the client?"

   "Huh?" Judge Qi was slightly taken aback when he heard this.

   Not only him, but Lawyer Zhuo, Li Qinghe and Fang Wenbin on the side, all also showed stunned expressions.

   If you don't summon Kong Hang, who do you summon?

   At this moment, the door of the court was pushed open, and a woman pushed in.

   Zhang Wei looked at the woman, nodded slightly, and then announced:

   "I would like to introduce to you, this is my witness. She is Xiao Baihe, the prosecutor of the Serious Crime Division of the District Prosecution Headquarters. I want to subpoena her, not my client Kong Hang!"

   This scene completely exceeded everyone's expectations.
