His hair was shaved to the same as a prisoner. Judging from the newly grown blue scalp, he must have been shaved when he was detained.
The originally rich face of the Chinese character has now been completely thinner. The skin after the sudden loss of weight is somewhat loose on the face, making the handsome facial features look a little tired. The eyes under the pair of thick eyebrows are bright and energetic, but the two drooping bags are very eye-catching, as if they have not had a normal sleep for a long time.
Seeing her father's appearance, Zhong Yan'er looked very excited. Because she could not speak in the auditor's seat, she kept waving to the defendant's seat.
Zhong Xin also looked here as if he had a heart-to-heart relationship. He nodded calmly to his wife and daughter. Zhong Yan'er immediately showed a vibrant smile on her face. She clenched her pink fist very hard, and made a cheerful gesture to her father.
Seeing her husband wearing prison uniform standing in this very familiar occasion, Xu Ruqing's jade face was still dignified and quiet, and she did not lose control like her daughter.
She just nodded to her husband calmly, but Wenlong clearly saw that her two slender hands on her knees grabbed each other with force. The snow-white and transparent skin was obviously full of blue veins, betraying her inner heart, which was very different from her calm appearance.
This court debate was really exciting. Both the prosecution and defense played a very high level. The listeners, including Wenlong, were all impressed. Two hours had passed without realizing it. During this period, except for a short rest, basically no one walked out halfway.
However, Wenlong still had a question in his mind, why didn’t he see Weng Lihong today? Logically, this should be the most favorable weapon of the defense. Xu Ruqing spent so much effort to ask him to invite her over, and he paid a considerable price yesterday afternoon to completely deal with her, but now the matter has not been used. What medicine is she selling in her gourd?
Just as I was thinking, the answer was revealed soon
I saw a noise coming from the entrance of the court. With the sound of high heels hitting the ground, Weng Lihong's figure appeared at the door.
I saw her wearing a goose yellow knitted long skirt. The long skirt showed her slender legs wearing gray glass stockings. She wore a small vest with white fox hair. She had bright diamond decorations hanging around her ears and necks. Her dazzling blonde hair was tied high into a bun. She was wearing a pair of sunglasses on her straight and tall nose. She walked over with a happy look on her face.
She completely ignored the presiding judge's questioning and the bailiff's obstruction, sat next to Wenlong with a rich perfume smell, took off her sunglasses and exposed her beautiful and elegant face. She first gave him a meaningful eye, and then greeted Xu Ruqing and his daughter.
Zhong Xin, who had been standing quietly in the dock, seemed a little excited when he saw Weng Lihong walking into the court. His lips trembled slightly, as if he was saying something, and there was a bit of rosy luster on his face.
Please don't make noise in court, warn once
The presiding judge turned blue and picked up the gavel and knocked it hard on the table. It was probably the first time he saw a woman who was so arrogant and domineering and did not take his authority seriously.
Weng Lihong shrugged, looking indifferent
But she wasn't talking anymore, just leaning her body closer to Wenlong, and her two long legs wrapped in her skirt were pressed against his legs. She could still feel her smooth and elastic skin through her trouser legs.
After seeing Weng Lihong coming in, Xu Ruqing quickly exchanged glances at Zhu Siming. Zhu Siming nodded understandingly. He turned to the judge and said loudly: Presiding judge, I ask our witness to be summoned to testify in court.
After receiving his request, the presiding judge first glanced at the prosecution seat and asked: Who is the defense lawyer who is going to summon?
What we want to summon is that the designer of Meiyuan Community, a Chinese-American, Ms. Weng Lihong, who is involved in the Hanshan plot involved in this case, can prove that Zhong Xin has never received money from Century Huitong
The presiding judge exchanged views with the judges on both sides, knocked the gavel and said: In view of the new witnesses on the scene, the hearing committee will discuss it, so the court will be adjourned for 10 minutes.
After saying that, the presiding judge and several judges left the seat and walked backwards. The prosecution seat also stood up one after another and hurriedly walked out.
He saw Guning talking to someone with a cell phone in his hand. Isn’t the court prohibiting carrying a phone? Why can they be unrestrained?
They ran into the lounge with two lawyers. Xu Ruqing praised their performance and encouraged them to continue their efforts in the second half. She pulled Weng Lihong over and focused on explaining the precautions for appearing in court to testify. Weng Lihong listened very seriously, and it seemed that she cared about it.
Wenlong seized this rare time and pulled Zhong Yan'er into the corner, wanting to show her reconciliation.
Although Zhong Yan'er didn't mean to reject him, she still had a cold expression on her face. She stared at her mother and said softly: Let me be quiet, now I just want my father to go home safely
Looking at the confusion in her eyes, he didn't know what to say.
Just then the court bell rang, and he got rid of this unspeakable situation and returned to the audience with the crowd.
The defense lawyer and the prosecutor returned to their seats. Zhu Siming and Yan Wenqing were both confident, but he found that the prosecutor seemed more relaxed. They looked confident and their eyes were focused on the presiding judge.
Since the trial started, the presiding judge, who had been cold-looking, seemed a little restless at this moment. Sweat was faintly visible on his forehead. It seemed that he had experienced many things in the past 10 minutes. He knocked on the gavel to indicate that the trial would resume, and then signaled to the prosecutor to speak.
Gu Ning stood up and pointed to the defense seat and said: Presiding Judge, we believe that the defense's behavior of adding witnesses is illegal and should be ruled out.
Zhu Siming was about to protest, but the presiding judge stopped his actions. He held the glasses frame and looked at him without looking at him. He said in a deep voice: The defense temporarily added witnesses, and had not requested the court and approved it before. It was a violation of the rules and unauthorized evidence, so the defense witnesses were not allowed to appear in court to testify.
As soon as this statement was made, the audience was in an uproar. The defendant's family members in the audience were excited. Weng Lihong was so angry that she stamped her feet. Even Zhu Siming, who had always been gentle, excitedly protested to the presiding judge.
Although Xu Ruqing did not move, the two flying black eyebrows were already tightly twisted together, as if the presiding judge's behavior was beyond her expectations. However, she still calmly made a gesture to her husband in the dock, stabilizing Zhong Xin, who was originally a little anxious,
Only those prosecutors looked as if they were taken for granted. They sneered slightly, as if everything was in control.
At this time, a middle-aged man in a suit walked out from behind the court. He leaned into the presiding judge's ear and said a few words before leaving.
The presiding judge seemed to have received some instructions, and he slapped the hammer weakly and announced: Since there are still some disputes in this case, the court will postpone the retrial.
As soon as the words were finished, the people in the judges stood up and walked backwards, as if they were eager to leave the place sooner
Although the prosecutors won the victory on the surface, their expressions were not easy.
Although the defense party was expelled from a witness and a lawyer, it was a heavy price to pay, but the trial was not made in court but a retrial date, leaving a glimmer of hope.
Both the prosecution and defense were not very satisfied with the end of the trial, but they had no choice but to accept the result of the postponement of the retrial.
After the trial, Xu Ruqing invited them to have lunch together. First, thanked Zhu Yan and the two lawyers for their work, and second, discussed the next trial strategy.
Today's trial completely disrupted Xu Ruqing's layout. Originally, Weng Lihong was the most advantageous weapon in the plan, but it did not play a role in today's trial.
The prosecutor must have put a lot of pressure on the court behind the scenes, forcing the judge to ignore procedural justice in these links and make many rulings that are not conducive to the defense.
From this point of view, the mastermind behind the Zhong family is willing to take various measures, and it is necessary to confirm the case of Zhong Xin. The next trial will probably be even more difficult.
This is a big deal. Xu Ruqing did not discuss the next strategy during the meal, because Wenlong still had to deal with military training, and Zhu Yan and his two lawyers also had other matters to deal with. Everyone agreed to wait a few days before meeting and discussing. The lunch ended in this solemn atmosphere.
After dinner, the two lawyers returned on their own, and Xu Ruqing and his daughter accompanied the three relatives of the Zhong family to go out.
While picking up the car in the parking lot, Wenlong seized an opportunity to walk to Xu Ruqing and told her in a low voice that she wanted to chat. Xu Ruqing looked at him deeply and turned around and gave a few instructions to Zhong Yan'er. The little girl didn't look at him, but just nodded, and drove her uncle and aunt to leave first.
Xu Ruqing got into his car and drove towards Mei's house.
After driving for a while, Wenlong was still trying to open his mouth. Xu Ruqing, who was sitting upright in the co-pilot, spoke first. She opened her lips lightly and said: Long'er, what do you want to say to me?
Wenlong was silent for a while and finally spoke: Why did you do that
What did I do? You asked so strangely
Xu Ruqing didn't even look at me. She leaned her arms lightly on the armrest of the right car window, and her two thin legs wrapped in loose suit pants were folded together and fell to the right.
Even if she was sitting in the car, her figure was still so elegant and charming
What did you say to my aunt during the last time I had a meal
Wen Long looked ahead and asked
I didn't say anything, I just talked to her about you and Yan'er's affairs.
Xu Ruqing replied lightly
That's all? Then why did my aunt's attitude towards me change a lot after she went back
Wenlong frowned and said, his tone was a little sharp
I don't know what's wrong with your aunt?
Xu Ruqing's voice did not fluctuate at all, but the content in her words was very lethal.
The originally rich face of the Chinese character has now been completely thinner. The skin after the sudden loss of weight is somewhat loose on the face, making the handsome facial features look a little tired. The eyes under the pair of thick eyebrows are bright and energetic, but the two drooping bags are very eye-catching, as if they have not had a normal sleep for a long time.
