Rebirth 76: Industrial Internet Empire

Lin Yan said bitterly: "While Xu Xiaohu was hospitalized, the Bei'an Commune Police Station arrested Xu Xiaohu under pressure. Within two days, he went through the formalities for medical parole. He stayed in the hospital for three months and was released after he recovered from his injuries. Home!”

Lin Xi said loudly: "Your Honor, fellow jurors! According to Article 26 of the Mainland Criminal Law: Suspects of attempted rape shall be given lighter or reduced punishments compared with those who have completed the crime. Especially in the 70s, most of the sentences for completed offenders were more than three years. A prison sentence of less than ten years. From this, we can see what kind of living environment my client Yang Mo and witness Lin Yan are in. They live a difficult and humble life, eating every meal without finishing a meal, and using their young shoulders to fight against the power. and the wanton bullying of evil forces..."

The presiding judge nodded and said: "Now the prosecution lawyer will start the cross-examination!"

"Witness Lin Yan, why did you go to Bei'an Commune on the evening of May 1976, 5?" Luo Yuanshan asked.

"As I said just now, Xu Xiaohu asked someone to send me a message saying that the recommended quota for workers, peasants and soldiers college students has already reached the North Bank Commune!" Lin Yan replied.

"So you went to Bei'an Commune to take a shortcut and get the only recommendation quota through the back door, right?" Luo Yuanshan asked.

"I didn't go there for myself, I just went to fight for it..."

As soon as Lin Yan opened his mouth, he was interrupted by Luo Yuanshan, who continued to ask aggressively: "You only need to answer yes or no? Did you go through the back door? Witness Lin Yan, please answer truthfully!"

Perhaps caring leads to confusion. Lin Yan was vaguely aware of the logical trap hidden in Luo Yuanshan's all-or-nothing question, but he still blurted out: "That's not the case!"

"Witness Lin Yan, you are lying! Even though you knew that Xu Xiaohu had been pursuing you, you still accepted the invitation alone. There is only one reason: you were mentally prepared to sacrifice your appearance to get this recommendation. , it is obvious that this is a tacit deal of power and sex, and the sudden appearance of Ren Jie, the defendant in this case Yang Mo, unexpectedly forced you to interrupt the transaction!" Luo Yuanshan said in a stern tone.

"Your Honor, this is a public trial. For the sake of selfish interests, the defense lawyer confuses right and wrong and maliciously infringes on the witness's reputation. I implore the court to stop the defense lawyer's questioning of the witness immediately!" Lin Xi stood up and protested.

"Your Honor, witness Lin Yan's motive for going to the North Shore Commune alone is the key to this case, and it even involves the authenticity of some of her important testimony. She must accept our questioning!" Luo Yuanshan said "arguing the truth."

"The defense lawyer's protest is invalid. Witnesses please continue to be questioned by the prosecution lawyer!" the presiding judge said after a moment of thought.

Lin Yan smiled miserably and said: "I chose to stand here today, and I am prepared to be questioned and slandered! Prosecution lawyer, you ignore the facts and maliciously interpret other people's thoughts, which is against the profession of a lawyer. Conduct!"

"Witness Lin Yan, don't use your professional knowledge as a law professor to avoid the important and trivial. Please answer truthfully to the court about your true motive for going to Bei'an Commune!" Luo Yuanshan continued to ask.

"Yes, I went to Bei'an Commune alone to win this precious recommendation spot for Ren Jie, because all educated youths know that even if you are good enough, you will not be able to get this recommendation if you don't give a gift to Xu Mingyuan, the director of the Commune Revolutionary Committee, who is all-powerful. In order to obtain my student quota, I lived frugally and asked my parents for remittances three times for various reasons. I was not willing to spend a penny, so I used them all to buy gifts for Xu Mingyuan. Many years later, at a gathering of educated youths, we learned that Xu Mingyuan It's just a gift and nothing to do!" Lin Yan said word for word.

"Witness Lin Yan, that is to say, at first you planned to give gifts to get this recommended student quota, but later due to some uncontrollable factors, the transaction of money and power turned into a transaction of power and sex?" Luo Yuanshan has evil intentions. asked.

Lin Yan categorically rejected: "There is no money-power transaction at all, let alone the power-sex transaction you speculated out of thin air! The so-called money-power transaction is nothing more than Xu Mingyuan's taking advantage of the power in his hands. We were in a special historical period at that time. It was only during this period that scumbags like Xu Mingyuan and Xu Xiaohu were able to act unscrupulously!"

"Witness Lin Yan, according to our investigation and interview, Bei'an Commune has decided to give you this precious recommended student quota. Why did you stand out from dozens of educated youths? You should know it well, right? Later, because of the incident, It was only then that Annan County took back this recommendation quota, and the deal that you and Xu Mingyuan had long negotiated had to be terminated! This also indirectly led to the relationship between you and Xu Xiaohu, from a tacit partner , become enemies with mutual resentment!" Luo Yuanshan continued to talk wildly.

"You...you are trying to incriminate me, so why bother!" Lin Yan stammered, trembling with anger.

Luo Yuanshan asked but was not ready to let it go. He continued to ask: "Witness Lin Yan, according to the file records, in the early morning of October 1971, 10, you were living in the educated youth camp of Xiaping Brigade. How did Xu Xiaohu keep you silent?" Brought to a cave a few kilometers away?"

"At that time, I noticed a dark shadow shaking beside the truck, so I walked over to check. As soon as I got to the truck, I was attacked by someone. When I woke up, I was already in the barren mountains two kilometers away..." Lin Yan stated.

"Do you know who attacked you later?" Luo Yuanshan continued to ask unhurriedly.

Lin Yan nodded and said, "It was the two brothers Xu Jianguo and Xu Jianmin who were stealing oil. After they knocked me unconscious and took me to the barren mountains, about an hour later, Xu Xiaohu also appeared!"

"You're lying! A weak woman with no power to tie a chicken, when faced with someone stealing oil, according to normal logic, she should loudly call her companions to check together, instead of going into danger alone! This kind of narrative that is difficult to justify, perhaps only One reason: You made an appointment with Xu Xiaohu to go to the back mountain to resolve the emotional dispute between you once and for all!" Luo Yuanshan stepped forward, staring at Lin Yan, and said every word!

Lin Yan was shaking with anger and scolded with tears in his eyes: "You...you are shameless!"

"Your Honor, the prosecution lawyer is talking nonsense and maliciously provoking the witness's bottom line. This behavior violates the professional standards of lawyers and has seriously damaged the reputation of the witness. I implore the court to stop the prosecution lawyer's cross-examination and ask the lawyer to The Guild will investigate the prosecution lawyer's violations!" Lin Xi protested in a deep voice.

"Prosecution lawyer, please pay attention to your words and deeds! Otherwise, the court will immediately terminate your right to cross-examine!" the presiding judge warned.

"Your Honor, we request that new witnesses appear in court..." Luo Yuanshan said.
