Crazy, You Call This a Trainee Lawyer - Chapter 323
Chapter 323 Tie Ruyun proves himself, Xu Suyun makes a move
Friday, 1.30pm.
There are 30 minutes left until today’s court session.
In the defense preparation room, Zhang Wei and Tie Ruyun are preparing.
“Zhang Wei, is it necessary to be so formal?”
In the preparation room, in addition to Kai Zhang Wei and Tie Ruyun, there is also a professional hairdresser.
He is cutting Tie Ruyun’s hair, styling, and even applying hairspray.
“Old iron, this is your unprofessionalism…”
Zhang Wei said in a very experienced tone: “Today you are going to testify yourself in court, and the image of the witness will directly affect the jury’s impression of you!”
“Then it doesn’t have to be like that. I think it’s fine to wear a formal suit. There’s no need to do your hair and apply hairspray, right?”
Tie Ruyun said, his head was held down by the stylist, and a pair of hairspray was squeezed onto his hair.
The stylist is full of firepower, and the iron head is like a boat in the wind and waves, drifting with the current.
After 10 minutes, the stylist wiped the sweat from his forehead and finally finished work.
“How about it, okay?”
Zhang Wei took out a small mirror and let Tie Ruyun see his hairstyle.
“It’s a bit fancy and dyed a little hair, isn’t it too much?”
“No no no, this is the effect!”
Facing Tie Ruyun’s worries, Zhang Wei laughed, “Don’t forget, you are going to make a good impression today, this look is a must!”
“Besides, this stylist is very expensive. The service fee for a single outing costs 10,000 yuan. You don’t want my money to be wasted, right?”
“Fine…”
Tie Ruyun pouted, a little disapproving.
Although he has heard the saying that one should pay attention to appearance when appearing in court, Zhang Wei’s behavior is obviously a bit too much.
I don’t know, do you think you are going on a blind date?
“Whether it is a QJ case or a PC case, the man’s style is always the most important.”
Zhang Wei said at this moment: “As long as you dress well and give people a positive and sunny appearance, then the probability of your guilt is only 30%!”
“On the contrary, if you are sloppy in clothes, gloomy in face, and in low spirits, the probability of guilt is close to 90%!”
“Although the verdict is based on evidence, the jury is more about looking at the face, you must understand this!”
Tie Ruyun disagreed, he thought Zhang Wei was bragging.
“Old iron, for the sake of your own future, please be positive and sunny, okay?”
Zhang Wei said, and leaned in front of Tie Ruyun, “If we win the case today, I’ll invite you for the first three rounds of wine tonight!”
“Hey, who wants to drink with you?”
Tie Ruyun shook his head.
It’s boring to drink with you, you don’t need it yourself.
“By the way, you said that evidence has been found, is that true?”
“Of course, old iron, how could I lie to you!”
Facing Tie Ruyun’s worries, Zhang Wei waved his hand with a relaxed expression.
“This time, not only did I know the story of the case, but I even found the real mastermind behind you. Just look at it, the court hearing will be exciting!”
Tie Ruyun looked at Zhang Wei’s expression, and his heart palpitated for no reason.
He always felt that someone was going to have bad luck.
“It’s almost time now, let’s go to court!”
“Oh well!”
The two of them made some adjustments, then walked out of the preparation room and headed to the court scene.
…
Court scene.
A lot of people came.
In the front row of the hearing room, the newcomers from the District Prosecution Headquarters and the Criminal Department competed against each other, and they almost occupied half of the hearing room.
The newcomers on both sides are taking the lead.
Guo Wufeng was the leader of the District Prosecution Headquarters, while Li Yueqin and Lin Yumeng were the leaders of the Criminal Department.
Guo Wufeng stared at the two little girls opposite.
But Li Yueqin is not afraid of him, although Lin Yumeng is a little afraid, but when she thinks that everyone is in the spectator seat now and there is no need to go to court, she is not afraid.
So the two sides are staring at each other with big eyes and small eyes, and neither agrees with the other.
On the prosecution table, Xu Suyun sat alone.
And this time Chai Ping did not sit in the prosecution bench, but sat in the hearing bench, and was in the back row of the hearing bench.
In yesterday’s trial, Zhang Wei finally summoned Chai Ping, and his testimony also made the master Xu Suyun feel bad about it.
This apprentice will only cause trouble for himself, so why not go to the auditorium!
The central position of the hearing box, Jincheng Law Firm also came.
Unfortunately, it was Shin Zhengyi who came with a group of dog-legged beasts and sluts.
Although they came to watch the trial on behalf of Jin Cheng in name, they were the only ones who knew what was hiding behind their backs.
“Today is the final court hearing, right?”
“This Tie Ruyun is estimated to be detained for a few days, but although the case is small, the impact is not small!”
“The big boss values his own face the most. If something like this happens inside the law firm, he will definitely take it seriously!”
“Don’t talk about that Tie Ruyun, maybe even Zhang Wei will get out of here!”
Having said that, Shin Zhengyi showed a conspiracy-successful smile on his face.
The plan this time, I thought it was just to cause trouble for the two of Tie Ruyun.
He didn’t expect the benefits of the plan to be so great that he couldn’t help laughing.
At this moment, the door of the courtroom opened, and Zhang Wei walked into the scene with Tie Ruyun.
The eyes of the audience immediately turned to the two of them.
Zhang Wei’s eyes swept over the people in the hearing booth, and nodded to the newcomers headed by Li Yueqin, and then smiled at Guo Wufeng.
But his smile was exchanged for Guo Wufeng’s eyes full of killing intent.
He will never forget the incident when Zhang Wei summoned his old father to court, and then humiliated himself in court.
Zhang Wei didn’t care. After saying hello to Lao Guo, his eyes were fixed on Shen Zhengyi and the others.
“Good job, you really came, and it saved me wasting my time!”
Zhang Wei was not surprised to see the three of Shen Zhengyi present.
Today is the last day of the trial for this case, and they will definitely be there.
And because of their presence, today’s case will definitely be over.
Thinking of this, he and Tie Ruyun sat on the defense table and began to wait for the hearing.
2 o’clock sharp.
“Stand up!”
With the announcement of the court guard, Judge Liu walked into the courtroom.
He also swept around the hearing booth, while secretly saying a good guy.
Sure enough, so many people came again.
This is not a big case, just an ordinary PC case, but it still failed.
You have such a big battle every time, and I feel a lot of pressure in my heart.
I think when I was in a small rural court, how many people came every time the court was held?
There are more than 20 seats in the hearing bench, which may not be full.
You guys are outrageous, the same is a small case, and as a result, forty or fifty seats in the hearing bench are almost full.
However, he remained calm, his eyes swept to the prosecution and defense, and then to the jury.
After confirming that all the key people were present, he immediately struck the hammer: “This court announces that the public prosecution case against Jincheng Law Firm’s lawyer Tie Ruyun by the Zhongcheng District Prosecutor’s Office will continue today!”
“Yesterday, the prosecution told the court to end its testimony, so today it’s the defense’s turn to speak!”
“Thank you Judge Liu!”
Zhang Wei got up immediately and expressed his gratitude.
“This court summons the defendant Tie Ruyun to testify himself in court!”
He said, patted Tie Ruyun on the shoulder, and the two walked to the court at the same time.
“Oh, you even made a shape?”
At the prosecution table, Xu Suyun also noticed the strangeness of the defense.
She saw Tie Ruyun wearing a trendy blue suit, discounting brightly colored leaders, and even getting her hair done. The style was completely incomparable to her gloomy appearance before.
“Is this a poor skill, and choose to use image points to save?”
Xu Suyun, as a seasoned prosecutor, of course knows what this move represents.
The impression score of the jury usually means that the defense lawyers have run out of recruits, trying to win the jury with a little image change.
Of course, the effect of this trick is actually limited.
Xu Suyun looked towards the jury.
12 jurors, 3 males and 9 females.
At this moment, seeing Tie Ruyun’s shape change, 3-4 out of 9 women showed surprises, and 3 men didn’t react at all.
Xu Suyun’s face sank, this image seems to have been caught by the defense.
“3, 4, I have drawn so much, so it’s alright!”
And Zhang Wei only pouted when he saw that his method worked.
he muttered, looking towards the witness stand.
“Cough, old iron, although everyone knows who you are, why don’t you introduce yourself?”
“okay!”
Tie Ruyun nodded, then introduced himself: “My name is Tie Ruyun, I am from the Criminal Department of Jincheng Law Firm, and I am temporarily serving as the head of the Criminal Department.”
“stop!”
Tie Ruyun’s speech was suddenly interrupted by Zhang Wei: “Old Tie, everyone knows what you said. I want you to say something that everyone doesn’t know.”
“Huh?” Tie Ruyun looked confused.
Didn’t you ask me to introduce myself, why are you dissatisfied again?
“For example, are you married or have a girlfriend?”
“this…”
Tie Ruyun immediately scratched his head and looked embarrassed when he heard Zhang Wei’s “sharp” question.
“That means no?”
Zhang Wei said, hey hey hey hey hey smile, “All the people who are going to the four, have not even held a girl’s hand?”
Tie Ruyun blushed and lowered his head in shame.
“be opposed to!”
But at this moment, Xu Suyun seemed to sense something was wrong and immediately questioned.
“Your Majesty, the defense attempted to use the defendant’s pale emotional experience to deceive sympathy, which is obviously very immoral!”
“I think it’s really sympathetic that a man who is running four has no girlfriend…”
Judge Liu glanced at Tie Ruyun with a hint of pity in his eyes.
“Judge Liu!” Xu Suyun drank again immediately, his eyes filled with ill will.
“Cough cough…”
Judge Liu sensed the coldness, and immediately knocked on the hammer, warning the defense: “Lawyer Zhang, please put away that little thought for you and your client, isn’t it because you are in your thirties and don’t have a girlfriend, or because you are too busy to find a job? Do you have a normal chat with the opposite sex, what is there to be sympathetic to…”
As he spoke, there were faint tears in Judge Liu’s eyes, and he almost cried.
“Cough, what Judge Liu said makes sense!”
Zhang Wei couldn’t help nodding, and then continued to ask questions.
“So old iron, let’s not talk about this, let me ask you a simple question, what were you and another client of the case, Gan Xiaowei, the night you were caught by the field service?”
Tie Ruyun did not hesitate, and immediately said: “That day was Saturday, I helped Xiaowei handle a lawsuit on Friday, and after the other party agreed to withdraw the case, I took her to go through the procedures for withdrawing the case on Saturday, and cleaned up by the way. thing.”
“I kept busy until the evening, and I took her back to her place.”
Having said this, Tie Ruyun hesitated for a moment, but still confessed: “When I returned to the street where she lived, I saw that she was penniless and pitiful, so I took out a little cash from her wallet and gave it to her. I was moved and suddenly offered to do me a favor…”
“She said she thanked me for helping her for so long and gave her money back, so she wanted to repay me. Of course I clearly refused, but she still…”
Seeing Tie Ruyun’s hesitation, Zhang Wei immediately interjected: “But she still insisted on serving you once, but you refused again, the two of you just put the blame in the car, and in the eyes of outsiders, you are like hugging each other, right? ?”
“I don’t know what people outside the car think of me…”
“But the field officer obviously thinks that you are planning to ‘car shock’?”
Zhang Wei said, looking at the jury with a smile, “This is one of the parties, Tie Ruyun’s self-report.”
“All of this is a misunderstanding. My client never thought of asking Gan Xiaowei to provide services. He just gave the latter 500 cash out of kindness and sympathy.”
“But it just so happened that there was a field officer on duty on the street that day, who took the two of them’s shirk in the car as some kind of ambiguous behavior, which was just an ordinary misunderstanding.”
Zhang Wei said with a hint of helplessness on his face.
This is really just a misunderstanding, it’s just that some people make a big fuss, and that’s why this kind of turmoil has arisen.
“Misunderstandings are all misunderstandings!”
Zhang Wei said and emphasized it again, then looked at Tie Ruyun.
The latter shook his head, because he had said what he had to say.
“Your Majesty, we have no more questions to ask about the defendant!”
he said, walked down the court and returned to the defense stand.
Judge Liu nodded, then looked at the prosecution seat.
Zhang Wei has finished asking, now it’s your turn, Mrs. Xu.
Xu Suyun got up slowly, with a cold face, and walked to the center of the court step by step.
Her movements still put a lot of pressure on the court, at least her iron eyes gradually became solemn.
He also knows that the next step is the difficulty.
“Misunderstand?”
Xu Suyun’s icy face showed no emotion, “The defense actually said it was a misunderstanding, isn’t it too funny?”
“The two clearly had a money transaction. A man and a prostitute were in a dimly lit street corner and moved their feet in a car. You told me it was a misunderstanding?”
Tie Ruyun immediately retorted: “It’s really a misunderstanding!”
“Joke!”
But Xu Suyun interrupted immediately, and sneered: “These are all excuses, this is just your unilateral testimony, what do you say is what it is?”
she said, walked back to the prosecution table, and took out a document.
“Here is Gan Xiaowei’s testimony. She clearly informed us and at the same time told the court that Tie Ruyun tried to use her work to coerce her to provide services for herself. This is the truth!”
said, she also dumped the document in her hand, reminding the jury and the court.
“And you, Tie Ruyun, everything you say may be a lie in order to protect your job and the face of yourself and the law firm!”
Xu Suyun pointed at Tie Ruyun and asked, “Did Lin Xiangtian, the big boss of your law firm, force you to resolve this matter as soon as possible. You felt the pressure, so you chose to lie in court!”
“Objection, the other party is speculating on their own!”
Xu Suyun’s words were immediately interrupted by Zhang Wei.
“The objection is valid!” Judge Liu nodded and glanced at Xu Suyun.
As for the meaning of the warning, he knew that his words were light, and it was a problem whether people would see it or not.
Xu Suyun was interrupted, but he was not angry at all. Instead, he said to the jury: “The defendant changed his appearance again today and lied in public again. He was obviously afraid, and he was obviously ashamed!”
“be opposed to!”
Zhang Wei got up again, looking unhappy.
Of course, he did it on purpose, he deliberately put on a displeased expression and showed it to the judge.
“Prosecutor, please pay attention!”
Judge Liu of course saw it and understood the seriousness of the matter, and immediately struck the hammer.
“Prosecutor, please don’t continue to speculate on the defendant’s behavior for no reason. Please come up with evidence to prove that your speculation is correct!”
“Humph!” In the face of the warning, Xu Suyun snorted coldly and did not intend to ignore Judge Liu at all.
Judge Liu is bitter, what can I do, I am a newcomer.
The old birds don’t give me face, so I’m helpless.
And after Xu Suyun did this, she saw the 12 jurors of the jury, all of them thoughtful.
Lies!
Whether Tie Ruyun lied, this point really needs to be considered.
If he wanted to keep his job and prevent his immediate boss from getting mad at him, would he really lie in public?
Obviously yes!
And Gan Xiaowei also gave testimony, and it was completely different from the defendant’s testimony.
So who to trust?
All in all, the seeds of doubt have been planted.
Xu Suyun’s purpose was also achieved.
She just wanted to make the jury feel that Tie Ruyun was someone who could lie in public for her own benefit.
But she still holds it, and she has to increase the impression of the jury.
“Defendant, you are a defense attorney, right?”
“yes.”
“Then in your defense career, have you helped the guilty to escape?”
“this…”
Hearing this question, Tie Ruyun immediately hesitated.
“be opposed to!”
At this moment, Zhang Wei got up immediately, “The prosecution’s question has nothing to do with this case, and the cases my client participated in before are not directly related to this case!”
“But he hesitated, which shows that he did something immoral, otherwise he would not hesitate and should answer my question immediately!”
Xu Suyun grabbed Tie Ruyun’s hesitation, and immediately reiterated to the jury.
“Judge Liu!” Zhang Wei spread his hands and said you can figure it out.
“Prosecutor, this court can no longer tolerate your behavior, and now declare that you are disqualified from continuing to question!”
Judge Liu finally shot.
He knew that warning Xu Suyun was meaningless, so he directly announced that he had deprived the other party of his qualifications for cross-examination.
Xu Suyun sneered, not at all angry that he was disqualified.
Because her purpose has been achieved.
That seed of doubt has now taken root.
I didn’t see that there were at least 10 jurors on the jury. Are you deeply suspicious of the defendant’s expression?
Knowing that your defendant is a defense lawyer, and a criminal defense lawyer who specializes in helping bad guys litigate, they obviously won’t believe you.
This is steady!
Xu Suyun was full of confidence at the moment, because she knew that the defense had run out of options.
