Li Wenjie's case finally went to trial again.

The defense's first witness is being cross-examined by Le Yun.

"Mr. Wang Shuyu, as an expert, you have been engaged in ordnance forensics for many years. Based on your research, are you sure that Zhao Bin was shot in the car?"

"No matter what kind of expert I am, how many years I have been engaged in ordnance forensics, what experience I have or not, these are all dogs..." Perhaps noticing that the situation was wrong, Wang Shuyu swallowed the word "fart" forcefully.

"Sorry, I mean, none of that matters."

After saying that, he changed into a more comfortable position on the witness stand, and sat on the hard wooden chair to create a "lazy couch" feeling.

"The photo shows that there are marks of gunpowder burns around the fatal wound on the victim's neck. This shows that the victim was shot at close range. Normally, the burn marks should be distributed in a circle. In this case, The marks on the victim’s neck were obviously caused by being obscured by something else.”

"The police believe that it was caused by the victim's windbreaker collar. Do you agree with this?"

"As I said before, the question is not whether I agree or not," Wang Shuyu said, shaking his head, "but the evidence has the final say. I have compared it in the database and verified it many times in the laboratory. Now I can say with certainty that the unique concave mark on the victim’s neck was caused by being blocked by the car’s seat belt.”

"So you concluded that the victim Zhao Bin was shot and killed at close range in a car, right?"

"Yes," Wang Shuyu nodded, "I'm pretty sure that the first scene of the murder must be in the car. This can also explain why the security guard at the entrance of the underground parking lot did not hear any suspected shooting sounds. Because part of the gunfire was absorbed by the car."

"According to the testimony of witness Wang Shuyu, the police once again inspected the company vehicles driven by my client Li Wenjie, as well as the vehicles owned by Li Wenjie and his wife. As a result, no traces of shooting were found, nor were there any signs of shooting. Any blood reaction." Le Yun said, submitting the relevant information of the identification results to the court.

"Thank you, Mr. Wang Shuyu." Le Yun thanked the witness

"You're welcome. It's my honor to be able to testify for the beauty."

With that said, Wang Shuyu stood up, bowed to the judge and Le Yun in a very gentlemanly manner, and walked down the witness stand.

The second witness - Li Xiang.

Contrary to Wang Shuyu's free and uninhibited attitude, Li Xiang sat upright in the witness box, waiting to be cross-examined by Le Yun.

"Officer Li Xiang, you have conducted an investigation on the vehicles of the persons involved in this case. What did you find in Mr. Xie Fei's car?"

"Objection!" The prosecution lawyer immediately jumped up to object.

The judge frowned, "I don't see anything to object to. The witness hasn't started testifying yet. The objection is invalid. Witness, please continue to testify."

Li Xiang nodded to the judge and continued: "After investigation, we found that Mr. Xie Fei and his wife had three cars registered in their names. Legal personnel inspected these three cars and found no abnormalities. However, I found that, Sheffield actually had another car."

Le Yun presented the second piece of information to the court.

"According to Officer Li's investigation, Xie Fei rented a car with the license plate GT2089 through Tongda Car Rental Company in March this year for a one-year lease. The car has been in normal use. It wasn’t until the day after Zhao Bin’s accident that the car was reported stolen by the rental company.”

"I object, Your Honor." The prosecution lawyer once again questioned, "There is no evidence that this missing car has anything to do with this case. The defendant's lawyer is changing the subject and wasting public resources."

"Your Honor, I guarantee that the car I just mentioned is definitely related to this case." Le Yun said very firmly.

"Defendant's lawyer, please get to the point quickly." The judge allowed her to continue.

"Thank you, Mr. Judge." Le Yun bowed slightly to the judge to express her gratitude, and then said:

"Our investigators found the stolen car before the trial. After inspection, obvious smoke reactions and blood reactions were found in the car. After verification, the DNA of the blood sample found in the car was exactly the same as that of the victim Zhao Bin. and--,"

She projected a photo onto a monitor in the courtroom.

"Consistent with the testimony of expert Wang Shuyu, the burn marks on the seat belt of this car are completely consistent with the wounds of the victim Zhao Bin. In the trunk of the car, we also found a pistol that matched the model of bullets used at the crime scene."

There was a commotion in the hearing room.

On the witness stand, today's third witness was welcomed - Xie Fei's wife, Zhang Lin.

Unlike the first two different witnesses, Zhang Lin, who came to the court for the first time, looked obviously nervous.

Le Yun noticed her nervousness, cast an encouraging look at her, and said kindly:

"Ms. Zhang Lin, please introduce your relationship with Xie Fei to the court."

Zhang Lin coughed dryly and said softly, her throat a little tight: "Xie Fei is my husband."

"Ms. Zhang Lin, according to police information, Zhao Bin was killed between 17:00 and 19:00 that afternoon. Your husband Xie Fei stated in his statement to the police that he had been staying with you during this time. At home. Do you agree with the above?"

Wang Shanshan lowered her eyes and clenched her hands tightly into fists.

She knew very well that her confession was the straw that killed the camel's back.

After struggling for about two or three seconds, she raised her head, pursed her lips, looked at Le Yun, and said with great certainty: "My husband, Xie Fei, lied. That afternoon, he left two Hours."

The noise in the hearing room grew so loud that the judge had to remind everyone to keep quiet.

Le Yun was very excited. She knew that the lawsuit had actually been won.

She continued taking steps.

"Ms. Zhang Lin, do you remember the specific time Xie Fei left home?"

"4:45." Zhang Lin said without hesitation.

"Why do you remember it so clearly?"

"Because I was applying a facial mask and the mask could not stay on my face for more than 20 minutes, so I set the alarm clock. I remember that the alarm clock just rang when he went out, so I remembered the time."

"When did Xie Fei come back?"

"In two hours."

"When he came back, was there anything unusual, such as -" Le Yun's technical pause aroused everyone's appetite, "Did he hold anything?"

"Objection! I'm right, Your Honor." Although he felt that there was no way he could save his life, the prosecution lawyer was still making his final struggle. "The defense lawyer guided the witness to testify."

"The objection is invalid!" Obviously, the judge's curiosity was also aroused.

Zhang Lin felt her body trembling slightly, and she felt that everyone's eyes seemed to be focused on her.

At that moment, she suddenly hesitated for a moment, and then a series of numbers from her husband's Cayman Islands bank account flashed in her mind, and her hesitation was immediately crushed by anger.

She raised her head and looked at Le Yun:

"A handbag filled with U.S. dollars, a total of 8 yuan."

“What happened to the money in the end?”

"Sheffi said there was something wrong with the money and donated it all at a charity dinner,"

Le Yun did not ask any more questions, turned around and submitted the last piece of information to the court——

It was exactly what Lu Yin had given her before, the details of donations received from the Hitotsubashi charity dinner.

Le Yun thanked Zhang Lin and turned to look at her client, Li Wenjie.

I found that Li Wenjie was looking back towards the hearing room, saying something softly.

Following the direction of his gaze, Le Yun saw Li Wenjie's wife.

She immediately understood that Li Wenjie's mouth shape was repeating three words: I love you.

A warmth flowed in her heart, and Le Yun showed a heartfelt smile of relief.

Once again, she felt lucky that she had chosen a career as a lawyer.

The judge pronounced in court: Li Wenjie was acquitted.

After walking out of the court, Le Yun looked up and found that the sky seemed to be particularly beautiful today.

Light penetrated from behind the thin clouds, making the clear blue sky look like an ocean soaked in sunlight.

The corners of her mouth raised, and her steps became brisk.

Open the car door, sit down in the driver's seat, and the WeChat prompt sounds.

Le Yun opened it and took a look:

Lu Yin: Congratulations to Lawyer Le for winning the case.Don’t forget your previous commitment and keep the one-day appointment.

Le Yun laughed happily.

She found that she smiled a lot today.
