Rebirth 76: Industrial Internet Empire

Chapter 289 Court Trial (7)

Xia Xinyi wiped the tears on her face and said solemnly: "Yang Mo, I'm not afraid of gossip, and I don't care about the theory of victim guilt. I'm not afraid of a weak woman, so what are you afraid of? Looking forward and backward, timid, At critical moments, he loses control of his emotions and acts out of impulse. Is this still the Yang Mo I know?"

Lin Xi and Xia Xinyi's words suddenly woke up Yang Mo. He found that his thinking mode was completely led astray by the prosecution lawyer. It didn't matter whether he was sentenced to excessive defense, manslaughter or legitimate defense in the end!

To maintain the brand image of Zhiyuan Group, the most important thing is that what Yang Mo does is in line with the values ​​of Eastern and Western cultures!

In order to stop the kidnapper from invading his lover madly, he was so angry that he splattered with blood for five steps!Isn't this kind of ultimate personal heroism a value that is highly respected in both Eastern and Western cultures?

What does it matter whether you lose the lawsuit or not?Even if the lawsuit is ultimately lost, the brand image can be improved from the perspective that Zhiyuan Group did not use the power of capital to win the lawsuit...

Thinking of this, Yang Mo regained his composure and nodded in agreement with Lin Xi's defense plan.

After the court reopened, Lin Xi stood up and said: "Your Honor, my client and I have reached an agreement and requested the court to allow new witnesses to appear in court!"

The presiding judge nodded in agreement and said: "I agree with the defense's new witness to appear in court!"

Xia Xinyi walked to the witness stand with a solemn face, clenched a fist with one hand and read the witness oath.

"Defense witness, please truthfully state your name, place of origin, occupation, and relationship with both parties to the court!" the presiding judge said.

"Your Honor, fellow jurors, my name is Xia Xinyi! The deputy chief engineer of Yanjing Zhiyuan Metallurgical Research Center, I was an educated youth who jumped in the Shangping Brigade of Bei'an Commune, Annan County, Honghe Province 17 years ago!" Xia Xinyi said calmly.

"Witness Xia Xinyi, where were you on the evening of May 1976, 5? Please tell the court truthfully." Lin Xi asked.

"That day, I happened to be at the Bei'an Commune Revolutionary Committee compound, the scene where Xu Xiaohu assaulted Lin Yan. I witnessed the entire incident from the window! At about six o'clock in the afternoon, Lin Yan came to the commune compound revolutionary committee director As soon as he entered Xu Mingyuan's house, Xu Mingyuan took out a recommendation letter and said: Lin Yan, this is the only recommendation quota in Annan County. As long as you agree to marry Xu Xiaohu, this quota will be given to Ren Jie!" Xia Xinyi stated with a trembling voice. .

"What did Lin Yan say?" Lin Xi asked expressionlessly.

Xia Xinyi showed pain on her face and continued: "After Lin Yan very clearly rejected Xu Mingyuan's unreasonable request, Xu Xiaohu started to move forward. After Lin Yan struggled to break away, he opened the door and wanted to run out, but Xu Xiaohu was He hugged and dragged him into the room. Lin Yan then made two short calls, but Xu Xiaohu covered his mouth. After being dragged to the back room, Xu Mingyuan stood up and left. Less than a minute after Lin Yan was dragged into the back room, Hearing a scream from Xu Xiaohu, Lin Yan rushed out of the back room in disheveled clothes. But before he could reach the door, he was grabbed by Xu Xiaohu who was chasing him. While dragging Lin Yan into the back room, She desperately grabbed the window lattice until Ren Jie came to save her..."

"Your Honor, I'm done with my questions!" Lin Xi said.

"Witness Xia Xinyi, you said you work at Yanjing Zhiyuan Metallurgical Research Center? Is this a company under the Zhiyuan Group?" Luo Yuanshan asked unhurriedly.

Xia Xinyi said disdainfully: "Yes, but my establishment is at the Iron and Steel Research Institute. Yanjing Zhiyuan Metallurgical Research Center is not a wholly-owned company of Zhiyuan Group. With my professional level, I can get a higher salary in Germany and Japan." , no one can control my behavior!"

Luo Yuanshan was bored, and after pondering for a while, he continued to ask: "Witness Xia Xinyi, on the day of the incident, why did you appear outside the window of Xu Mingyuan, director of the North Bank Commune Revolutionary Committee?"

Lin Xi stood up and protested: "The defense lawyer's question has nothing to do with this case. Our witness can refuse to answer!"

"Your Honor, this issue is related to the reliability of the witness's testimony!" Luo Yuanshan explained.

The presiding judge pondered for a moment and then said: "Witnesses must answer the defense lawyer's questions!"

Xia Xinyi smiled sadly and said in a voice as cold as ice: "Because more than an hour before Lin Yan left, I was deceived by Xu Mingyuan into his house for the same reason. The only difference was that no one came to rescue me. …”

There was an uproar.

Without waiting for Luo Yuanshan to continue asking questions, Xia Xinyi continued: "Perhaps you will still question why we have to go to Xu Mingyuan's house alone? That's because you don't know how difficult our situation is. We go to the fields to do farm work before dawn every day, and we only have one day. With only four taels of rations, there is no hope. Our only mistake was to underestimate the despicability of human nature! But is this our fault? We were only 18 years old that year! 18-year-old girls should have been prepared for this The world is full of love and fantasy, but demons like Xu Xiaohu and Xu Mingyuan made us spend what should have been our best youth in despair and resentment. In the past 17 years, I can’t remember how many times I woke up from nightmares. I am extremely envious and jealous of Lin Yan. There is a man who regards him as his life. He will risk his life for her with the kidnappers. I only hate that I am a weak woman who does not have the strength to wash away her with the blood of these sanctimonious scum. Clear yourself of the humiliation you have suffered!"

After a brief moment of astonishment, Luo Yuanshan stood up and said: "Your Honor, given that the witness Xia Xinyi and the defendant Yang Mo have a large interest relationship, and her testimony cannot be verified as true or false, I would like to request the court not to accept Xia Xinyi's testimony and cancel her qualifications as a witness!”

"Your honor, Xia Xinyi is a young technical expert with a high status. She is very well-known not only in the mainland but also in the global metallurgical field. If her testimony is very credible!" Lin Xi argued.

The presiding judge nodded and said: "Reject the prosecution lawyer's application, and the cross-examination will continue!"

After Luo Yuanshan was briefly panicked, he blurted out: "Witness Xia Xinyi, regardless of whether this matter is true or not, why did you choose to testify in court after so many years of silence? Is there an unknown exchange of interests behind this?"

Xia Xinyi smiled sadly and said: "In the past 17 years, this matter has been like a big mountain, weighing me down and I can't breathe. I can only work hard to try to forget this unbearable shame. Maybe there are many female educated youths who have experienced what I and I did back then. Lin Yan was in the same pain. Some of them got through it with difficulty, some couldn't bear the humiliation and ended their young lives, and some spent the rest of their lives depressed. I chose to stand up, for no other reason than to tell others. They: This is the humiliation of that absurd era, and we should not bear the dust of history!"
