Genshin Impact: What? The one we need to save is Fukaros

Chapter 22 Learn foreign languages ​​from your mother

With the solemn announcement of Villette, the trial of this once sensational unsolved case officially began.

Lin Yide stood in the plaintiff's seat, his posture straight as an unyielding pine tree, showing his extraordinary temperament and demeanor.

Sitting in the box on the second floor, Funina stared at him and suddenly felt that Lin Yide exuded an irresistible charm and handsomeness at this moment.

Under the gaze of the crowd, Lin Yide calmly and forcefully began to reveal Kent's crimes in detail.

His words were sharp and clear, and he presented each outrageous detail to everyone one by one.

As he finished speaking, the audience erupted in anger, accusing Kendin, who was sitting in the dock, and denouncing his crimes.

At this moment, Kent was wrapped up like a rice dumpling waiting to be cooked, with only a pair of gloomy eyes showing.

Sitting next to him was a middle-aged man in a well-tailored suit and a well-dressed appearance - it was none other than the ace lawyer, Dershowitz, who was famous in the legal world.

"Silence!" Villette raised his cane and slammed it hard on the hard wooden floor. The crisp sound immediately brought silence back to the noisy scene.

He glanced at Kendin coldly, and then said seriously: “Kent, do you have anything to defend yourself against Lin Yide’s accusation?”

Kent pursed his lips tightly and made no sound.

Dershowitz stood up gracefully and said in a resonant voice: “On behalf of Mr. Kent, I strongly deny all of Lin Yide’s allegations.

Mr. Kent, whom I represent, is a dedicated and kind gardener who has an excellent reputation among his neighbors and would never commit such a heinous crime. "

A hint of subtle disgust flashed in Villette's eyes. He didn't like these people who were good at finding loopholes in the law. "Then, how do you explain the kidnapping of Miss Ella and the attempt to force her to commit suicide?"

Dershowitz calmly explained: “Ladies and gentlemen, the facts are not as the plaintiffs describe them.

It is well known that my client, Mr. Kent, has been mistreated and bullied by Miss Ella for a long time.

In that particular case, he was playing a minor prank on Miss Ella in a joking manner and had no intention of any harm or violence."

After hearing this, the audience was furious. Everyone knew that Dershowitz was just using sweet words to confuse the audience.

Funina was even more furious. She bit her lips tightly and wished she could rush forward to expose Dershowitz's lies.

However, for a moment, she couldn't find any powerful words to refute the other party.

"Auntie Dershowitz, your defense is undoubtedly an insult to the court, to Judge Navrette, and to the IQ of all the audience present." Lin Yide's tone was filled with sarcasm.

He paused, then continued, "Let's make an assumption. I stripped your mother of her clothes, but at the critical moment of stepping forward, I was stopped by the righteous masses. I said I was learning a foreign language, would you believe me?"

As soon as Lin Yide finished speaking, the entire opera house erupted in deafening laughter.

Only Navelette on the podium maintained a serious expression, as if she was outside the laughter.

Funina couldn't help laughing so hard that she was shaking with laughter. She covered her mouth and cursed Lin Yide in her heart, saying that he was a real hooligan. How could he tell such a vulgar joke?

But it’s really cool.

Dershowitz's expression became extremely ugly.

He had been in the industry for more than 20 years and had never encountered such an embarrassing and awkward scene. He felt like a clown who was stripped naked in public.

"Your Excellency the Judge!" he shouted sternly, "Lin Yide is attacking and insulting me personally! Please expel him from the court immediately!"

Navrette glanced at Dershowitz coldly, then said slowly: "He is just making a hypothesis. But if this hypothesis really hurts you, I will let Lin Yide apologize to you."

Hearing this, Lin Yide immediately took over the conversation and said seriously: "Then Judge Villette, I apologize to Attorney Dershowitz now. I shouldn't have wanted to learn foreign languages ​​from his mother. This is my fault."

As soon as these words were spoken, the whole audience burst into laughter again.

The audience laughed even more unscrupulously, and the trial had turned into a joyful comedy show.

Dershowitz was so angry at Lin's words that he clenched his fists and wanted to rush forward and beat him up. However, he soon realized his misconduct and tried to calm down and regain his composure.

He knew clearly that since his previous sophistry had aroused the anger of the audience and Villette, it would be extremely difficult for him to defend Kendin's innocence.

Therefore, he decided to change his strategy and plead guilty to some of the charges in exchange for a more favorable outcome.

So he stood up and said loudly: "We are willing to admit that Mr. Kent did coerce Miss Ella, but we firmly deny that he killed Sister Anna.

The prosecution has not provided any direct evidence to prove that Mr. Kent was the murderer.”

Dershowitz is certainly right.

Although Lin Yide accused Kendin of killing Anna and her sister, he lacked sufficient direct evidence to support the accusation. The testimony of Ella and Lin Yide alone was not enough to convict.

Lin Yide admitted frankly: "Indeed, I don't have any ironclad evidence to directly prove that Kent was responsible for the death of Anna and her sister.

The reason for this was that the detective in charge of investigating the case was Kent's cousin Ken Hughes.

He used his position to carefully cover up the truth and destroy all key evidence.”

Dershowitz responded immediately and refuted in a stern voice: "Lin Yide, your accusation is groundless! I must remind you again that if you cannot provide solid evidence to support your statement, I will have the right to sue you for defamation."

It is undeniable that Dershowitz's defense strategy is quite brilliant.

He seized on the lack of evidence to make it difficult for Lyndhurst to accuse Kent of killing Anna and her sister.

In the face of Fontaine's laws, evidence is the only way to go, and without the support of direct evidence, any accusation will seem weak.
