fraudulent marriage

Huo Heng submitted Wei Qi's filled-in witness information to the judge. The judge looked at it through thick glasses for a while, and said calmly, "Let lawyer Wei testify in court."

Wei Qi's appearance undoubtedly brought a turning point to this lengthy trial. Shen Mei was worried that Wei Qi would play some tricks in court, so before going to court, he whispered in Huo Heng's ear, "Aren't you acting rashly? You How dare you ensure that Wei Qi is telling the truth today?"

Huo Heng glanced at Shen Mei, hooked the corners of his lips, seemed to be smiling, seemed to be mocking, "Ms. Shen, do you think Wei Qi's appearance can make the trial worse than before? The worst result is nothing more than Upholding the original judgment is not a loss to you."

Shen Mei took a hard look at Huo Heng, gritted his teeth and said, "What do you mean it's not a loss to me? Don't forget, I suffered 22 years of imprisonment for nothing because of Wei Qi!"

"Ms. Shen, I've said it many times. It's just your one-sidedness." Huo Hengjun frowned slightly. At this moment, Shen's eyebrows were no longer as elegant and calm as they pretended to be when they first met. Not to mention that he regrets taking this case now, "As long as no one convicts Wei Qi, then he is innocent, do you understand?"

"I advise Ms. Shen that if she still wants to win the sympathy of the judge, it is best to put away her hideous and ugly face so as not to leave a bad impression on the judge. Otherwise, even if I have superb skills, it will be difficult for me to stand up for this lawsuit. Turn the tide."

After everyone was seated, the judge dropped the hammer heavily, "This court announces that the court session is now open."

Wei Qi was sitting on the witness stand, looking straight ahead. Huo Heng got up and walked in front of him, only to find that Li Yuan was still sitting in the courtroom and did not leave, and his face was still solemn, looking like Wei Qi's back was full of anxiety , seems to be worried about something.Before Huo Heng had time to study the relationship between Wei Qi and Li Yuan in detail, he began to cut to the point of questioning.

"Mr. Wei, may I ask what is your relationship with my client Shen Mei?"

Wei Qi pondered for a moment, then said slowly, "Mother and son."

This is a fact that Wei Qi tried to erase with all his strength, but in the end, the surging blood told him time and time again that Shen Mei had a blood relationship with him, and this kind of relationship could not be achieved by just changing his name. changed.

In the court, except for Huo Heng, Shen Mei and Li Yuan, everyone showed surprise after hearing Wei Qi's answer.

"What evidence do you have to prove that you and my client, Shen Mei, are in a mother-son relationship?"

"I am willing to cooperate with the court to do a DNA test after the trial is over."

"The murder that happened 22 years ago, you were a witness at the scene, right?"

"Yes."

"According to the testimony back then, you said you saw my client Shen Mei kill Guan Xiao with your own eyes, right?"

"Yes."

Hearing this, Shen Mei excitedly stood up and yelled at Wei Qi, "He lied! He lied! I didn't kill him! I didn't!"

The judge frowned in dissatisfaction, hammered the table lightly, and warned Shen Mei, who was out of control, "Plaintiff, please pay attention to court discipline."

Seeing that Shen Mei closed her mouth and sat back in her seat, the judge ordered Huo Heng, "Lawyer Huo, please continue."

"Wei Qi, do you have anything to add to the testimony of those years?"

Huo Heng kindly did not continue to attack, but wanted Wei Qi to tell the truth by himself.

Wei Qi raised his eyes slightly, and glanced at the grim-faced Shenmei, what he said next shocked everyone.

"Officer Li and I lied back then. Guan Xiao didn't kill Shen Mei, but me."

The secret that had been accumulated deep in my heart for many years was finally revealed to the public at this moment, not because Wei Qifan suddenly woke up, but because he wanted to take this opportunity to tell Shen Mei that he did not regret his choice about what happened back then. If it happened again, he would still do it.

"Since I was born, I have never received a day of maternal love. My birth was just revenge for Shen Mei. It was revenge for my father who made her pregnant and abandoned her."

"Before that accident, my life can only be described as dark. Which biological mother here would force her child to watch her having sex with different men every day? And which mother, Will you sell your child to a benefactor with a clearly marked price?"

"Guan Xiao is my mother's regular visitor. He often came to the house. At first he just touched my head and hands when he saw me. After a long time, he began to act recklessly. Several times, Shen Mei saw him touch me with my own eyes, but she But he left indifferently. Until that day, Guan Xiao took a huge sum of money, and I heard the deal between Shen Mei and him with my own ears."

"At that time, I was only seven or eight years old, and I didn't know how to deal with such a situation. I wanted to call the police, but found that the only communication tool at home was in the hands of Shen Mei. I was desperate, and when they were not paying attention, I never The kitchen stole a fruit knife and hid it on his body, then ran into the room and locked the door behind him, thinking that he would escape by doing so."

"But after a while, Guan Xiao got the key from Shen Mei and broke in. Guan Xiao rushed towards me like a wolf, and I took out the fruit knife I had hidden in advance without hesitation, and stabbed me without hesitation. into his stomach."

"The blood gushing from Guan Xiao's abdomen covered my hands, and the disgusting smell of blood filled the narrow room. I hid in the corner tremblingly, watching Guan Xiao fall to the ground, and then There was a squealing scream in my ears."

"She grabbed Guan Xiao's body that had fallen on the ground and shouted hoarsely, saying that I was a murderer and I killed Guan Xiao."

"Not long after, the neighbor called the police. The police who arrived took Shen Mei away without saying a word. I was also taken to the police station to assist in the investigation. When Officer Li was taking notes on me, I suddenly had an idea. If Shen Mei could If I am put in prison, then my miserable life of darkness can also end."

"Because Shen Mei had received Guan Xiao's money in advance, so I lied that she was plotting for Guan Xiao's money, so she killed Guan Xiao, and forced me to touch the knife stuck in Guan Xiao's abdomen after the incident, in order to get rid of it." legal sanctions."

"Things went better than I thought. The police quickly convicted Shen Mei, and I was sent to an orphanage and started a new life."

Wei Qi felt that it was thanks to Qin Xiao that he was able to tell the truth of the matter with such ease today.Even if his crimes are serious, even if his hands are covered with another person's blood, at least there is one person in this world who firmly believes that he is innocent.

After hearing Wei Qi's story, the court was filled with a heavy and sad atmosphere, and even a woman in the jury, who was about the same age as Shen Mei, couldn't help sobbing softly.

Huo Heng finally understood why when he first met Wei Qi, this person showed such disgust towards Shen Mei.If it were him, I'm afraid he would never stand in this court today to prove Shen Mei's innocence.

"Your Honor, I have no questions."

Because this case was too long ago, many things have not been investigated, and Wei Qi's one-sided words can't prove Shen Mei's innocence.To reverse the case for Shen Mei, Huo Heng needs to provide more direct and strong evidence, so the judge just announced that the case will be heard in two months. If Huo Heng is unable to provide evidence by then, the case will be dismissed and maintained The original judgment cannot be further appealed.

After the trial was over, Wei Qi felt that his mission had been completed, and just as he was about to leave, Shen Mei rushed forward like a lunatic, trying to grab Wei Qi.Fortunately, Huo Heng had quick eyes and quick hands, and stopped Shen Mei's violence in time, "What are you doing!?"

"Wei Qi! Stop!"

Wei Qi stopped, turned around, with a calm expression, "Is there anything else?"

"You bitch! You let me serve you for 22 years in prison for nothing! You actually want to leave so easily?!"

"Shen Mei, have you had enough trouble! This is the court!" Huo Heng grabbed Shen Mei's arms firmly and shouted.

"Wei Qi, I won't let you go so easily! If you owe me, I will definitely let you pay me back!"

"What do I owe you?" Wei Qi's light tone was mixed with some sarcasm, "What I owed you has been paid off today. If you continue to pester me, then I will guarantee you the rest of your life." Spent in prison."

As the mystery of Shen Mei's case was lifted, the relationship between Wei Qi and Shen Mei was exposed.The newspapers, which were previously timid because they were worried about offending Wei Qi, also began to report on the case tracking with great fanfare.

After Qin Xiao saw these news from the newspaper, he immediately used his connections in the circle to completely block the relevant reports.It's just that in today's society, a lot of news is spread by word of mouth, and it didn't take long for almost everyone in City A to know the news.

Regarding Shen Mei's case, there are almost two schools of thought.Some people think that Shen Mei deserved what he deserved, and that his own flesh and blood are willing to sell it to others at a marked price; some people think that even if Shen Mei has thousands of things wrong, he should not frame his biological mother, which shows that he has a vicious heart.

After Wen Xuan heard about Wei Qi's incident, he came to visit worriedly, but he never thought that Wei Qi's home had collected all the reports about the case in the past few days.Some reports, let's not talk about the facts, the words and sentences inside are really ugly, even Wen Xuan, a bystander, would think it's too much, and Wei Qi must feel uncomfortable after reading it.

"Lawyer Wei, don't read these messy reports." Wen Xuan put away all the newspapers on the table and said angrily, "Now these reporters, who are full and have nothing to do all day long, report exaggeratedly, just to grab people Eyeballs, you really have no morals at all, and I will lose them to you in a while."

"What do you do if you lose it, keep it, I can still take a look at it when I have nothing to do these days." Wei Qi smiled and comforted Wen Xuan, "I'm not angry, why are you so angry?"

The more Wei Qi spoke so calmly, the more uncomfortable Wen Xuan felt, "I just think...these people are too vicious."

"Malicious?" Wei Qi smiled and said, "That's what they said about me, too."

"How could Lawyer Wei be like them? They all have ulterior motives. You did that to protect yourself. If it were me, I would do that too." Wen Xuan racked his brains to comfort Wei Qi, "So don't Self-blame, this is Shen Mei's own fault."

"Thank you, Wen Xuan."

Wei Qi chatted with Wen Xuan halfway, the doorbell rang, and the person outside the door was none other than Qin Xiao.Just when Wei Qi was undecided whether to open the door, Wen Xuan also got up and wanted to leave, "Lawyer Wei, I won't disturb your rest, I'll go back first. By the way, you are pregnant now, so you should rest well and don't be caught by the negative news from the outside world." It disturbed the pregnancy."

Wei Qi twitched the corners of his mouth in embarrassment, "Okay, I know."

After Wen Xuan put on his shoes, he didn't see Wei Qi open the door, "Lawyer Wei, why don't you open the door, the guests outside are all anxious."

As soon as the words fell, before Wei Qi could stop him, Wen Xuan had already opened the door.Seeing Qin Xiao's face, Wen Xuan finally understood why Wei Qi didn't open the door for a long time. He suddenly felt that something was wrong with him, but he was too embarrassed to stay any longer, so he had to bite the bullet and say haha, "Boss Qin, come and see Wei Qi." Lawyer. I'm leaving, you guys talk slowly."

After Wen Xuan left, Wei Qi and Qin Xiao stood in a stalemate at the door, as if they had no intention of inviting Qin Xiao in to sit down.Qin Xiao could only speak cheekily, "Can I go in and sit down?"

"No need." Wei Qi said with a straight face, "If you have anything to say, just say it here."

Qin Xiao looked greedily at the face he hadn't seen for a long time. These days, he suppressed the crazy thoughts in his heart, and only dared to take advantage of the dead of night to secretly park his car downstairs at Wei Qi's house, staring blankly at the floor where he was. One night, it seemed like this could feel the other party's long breath.

"I just want to see you." Qin Xiao didn't dare to get too close to Wei Qi, for fear that this person would get angry and drive him away.

Wei Qi deliberately ignored Qin Xiao's tender face, turned his head and said, "You see, I'm fine, there's nothing else, you can go back."

After finishing speaking, Wei Qi wanted to close the door, Qin Xiao hurriedly put his hands against the door, "Wait, I have something to say."
