First-Class Lawyer

Matthew Crow's face flushed immediately, his lips twitched twice, as if he wanted to justify a few words, but in the end he couldn't hold back a single word.

There is no way, at this time, there is a sense of powerlessness in defending everything, and it is difficult to come back.

When he was speechless, the prosecution lawyer Gunter stood up again, "Let me explain to Mr. Crowe that the formation of experience depends on too many things. In addition to accumulated qualifications, it is also related to talent."

Of course, he didn't really say this to Gu Yan, but to the jury.In order not to let those people be taken away by Gu Yan's words, they collectively defected.

Lawyer Gunter suppressed his tone, and his unhurried and calm voice is the most effective when persuading people: "I think whether it is your lord, the jury, or all the hearing people here may have experienced this. Some people are very talented in a certain field. Maybe Mr. Crowe is naturally sensitive to cars, and he happened to do this kind of work. As the defendant's defense lawyer said, the cars he has seen are not as good as ours. Some of them are crowded, but he may be able to judge what kind of car is passing by the sound of the engine and the silhouette?"

Gunter turned his gaze to Gu Yan again, and said, "At least... we can't categorically deny this kind of thing, what do you think about Lawyer Gu?"

Gu Yan glanced at him, not intending to hold on to this point, but nodded gracefully, "That's true."

Gunter probably didn't expect him to be so easy to talk, so he raised his eyebrows in a daze for a moment.

And Matthew Crow, who was stunned on the witness stand, heaved a sigh of relief, and the blood on his face slowly receded.

So much so that for a moment, he was even grateful to the defense lawyer for not embarrassing him too much.

And this scene was also seen by all the audience.

In the first-level lawyer's seat area, Palvin, who had been silent for a long time, whispered to Yan Suizhi again: "It's very powerful. This mentality of stopping at the point is too easy to win favors, and it will appear very gentlemanly."

Yan Suizhi still propped his chin, and smiled when he heard this: "What do you mean by appearance?"

"Okay, he's a gentleman at heart." Palvin clicked his tongue, "As expected of your student, he's so young, but he's very good at handling things."

In Yan Suizhi's philosophy, confrontation in court is not really an enemy in the sense of the word.

You can expose any flaws, point out any flaws, you can make people speechless, and the whole room is silent.But never accuse the plaintiff, the witnesses, or even the opposing lawyer without sufficient evidence.

Just like in the case of Lyra star George Manson, the police officer who recorded the statement of the defendant Chen Zhang day and night.Under the questioning environment at that time, Yan Suizhi only needed to add one more sentence to label the other party as "extorting a confession by torture", but he did not.

Because it is actually difficult for you to confirm whether those who have done wrong things and said wrong words really harbor such deep viciousness.

Evidence can be attacked, but people should not be attacked indiscriminately.

This is an implicit criterion of Yan Suizhi.

This rule has nothing to do with emotional control, psychology and rhythm, or any court trial skills. It is just to keep a trace of goodwill in the courtroom.

In fact, Yan Suizhi never mentioned this kind of subjectivity to his students, let alone taught or imparted it.But he didn't expect that Gu Yan, who had never learned this point, would still follow him on the same road.

This may be regarded as a tacit understanding.

So, after Palvin finished sighing, Yan Suizhi calmly said: "Gu Yan's behavior style actually has nothing to do with who is his student, it's just because he is himself."

Parvin thought about it, and clicked his tongue again.

However, this kind of demeanor is not understood by everyone.

In the gunpowder-smelling courtroom, there are always some damned people who will take this kind of demeanor as a wrong and a concession.

Like Gaunt.

After the lawyer finished speaking for Matthew Crow, he did not just sit down, but raised his eyebrows and asked Gu Yan politely: "Since Lawyer Gu agrees with what I just said, what about the witnesses? Is that the end of Mr. Law’s inquiry? Then please allow me to conclude to the judge and jury: Mr. Crow’s testimony is not infallible in principle.”

He wanted to continue to make some provocative remarks, but just after he finished this sentence, Gu Yan calmly cut off his words and said, "No hurry, there are still a few last questions."

"..."

Gaunt just took a breath, and suddenly couldn't exhale it.

You are not in a hurry, I am in a fucking hurry!

He thought so in his heart, but he still had to maintain the basic politeness on his mouth, and squeezed out an answer: "Then, please continue."

Gunter was about to sit down after finishing this sentence, but Gu Yan said again: "Wait a minute, there are a few questions that Mr. Crowe can't answer, maybe I need to ask you for advice."

"..."

So Gunter stood up silently before his butt touched the chair.

Matthew Crow subconsciously retracted his stomach and stood at attention, waiting anxiously for Gu Yan to open his mouth.

"I need to confirm with you the individual details on the day of the incident," Gu Yan said.

Crowe nodded: "You ask."

"You just said that the first heavy rain lasted from 4 o'clock to around 9:20 in the evening?"

"Correct."

"The rain was slanted and the wind was strong. It took pictures on the window of your duty booth for five full hours?"

"Yes."

Gu Yan released a photo of the duty booth and the 013 mountain road on the holographic screen, and asked: "As you can see in the photo, the duty booth where you work has three windows. During the rainstorm, all three sides were hit by rainwater?"

Matthew Crow shook his head. He pointed to the window in the middle: "I usually face this window, and there is a desk in front of me. I remember it very clearly. That day when I lay down on the desk, the rain hit my face. On the window pane directly opposite me."

"Did the rain change during those five hours?"

Crowe shook his head, "No, I kept shooting, never stopped, and didn't get smaller. If I had to say it, it even got bigger and bigger, and finally stopped almost abruptly, but this is also the characteristic of the heavy rain in our area. .”

"So, during those five hours, were there other vehicles heading towards the warehouse?"

"nor."

"Sure?"

"Maybe I was a little sleepy when it was approaching midnight, so I was a little dazed when you said that there were two heavy rains, because I actually don't remember the second one clearly." Matthew Crowe finally admitted, "But I I swear, I was sober for five hours! Just this car and no one else."

Gu Yan nodded, and recalled the embarrassing photo of the Silver Leopard GTX3, and asked Gunter: "Is this the car my client Horace Ji used on the day of the crime?"

Lawyer Gunter said angrily, "Yes, all traces inside the car can testify, and so can the mud stains outside the car."

"Is there any evidence that he used another vehicle during the incident?"

Gunter said firmly, "No, it's this one."

Gu Yan: "Okay."

I don't know why, when Gu Yan said "yes", Gunter felt panicked for no reason.

He saw Gu Yan flicking the play button lightly with his fingers, and the Silver Leopard GTX3 on the screen was doubled in size, and the mud stains that had been killed were presented in front of everyone in a close-up manner.

Not only the on-site auditors could see it clearly, but also the people watching the live broadcast in the entire league.

The mud tracks all showed a tendency to be thrown by the wheels, leaning forward and sticking around the wheels.

Gu Yan said in a deep voice: "According to the testimony of the witness Mr. Matthew Crow, from 5:15 p.m., it began to rain heavily in the Emerald Mountain area. The wind was extremely strong and the rain was tilted. At 3:013, a Silver Leopard GTX7 drove into the 9 mountain road , arrived at the scene at No. 10 in the rain. At 3:10 at night, the same Silver Leopard GTX9 returned the same way in the rain. 20 minutes later, at around [-]:[-], the rainstorm stopped. During this period, the wind direction and rain did not change. .”

"Under the premise that there is no problem with the above testimony, there should be two kinds of mud spots in the area of ​​the Silver Leopard GTX3 driven by the suspected criminal, one is on the way to come, and the other is on the way to return, there is a difference between downwind and headwind, The direction of the two splashes must be inconsistent."

Holding an electronic pen, Gu Yan ticked two arrows on the holographic screen, then dropped the pen, raised his eyelids and looked at Lawyer Gunter: "Then, my client, Mr. Horace Ji, is driving This Silver Leopard GTX3, why is there only one type of mud in this area?"

Gunter's mind went blank for a moment.

But he immediately reacted and retorted subconsciously: "It can be wiped. Maybe the defendant wiped off the mud stains when he arrived at the warehouse? There is only one kind left!"

Gu Yan: "It is indeed possible to wipe. According to the direction of the storm and the direction of the 013 mountain road that day, the silver leopard GTX3 used as the criminal's tool should lean forward when the mud spots come, and the mud spots when it returns lean backward. According to what you said, wipe If the former one is dropped, what is left should be a backward mud trail.”

He curled his fingers, and tapped the electronic paper in front of him lightly, and the vehicle photos displayed on the holographic screen shook slightly in response.

"May I ask you to tell me, which direction is the mud track of the car abandoned by my client Horace Ji?"

Lean forward.

Diametrically opposed.

Gaunt was speechless.

The scene fell into dead silence again.
