In the name of love

This is the iron law of the court, and I believe the prosecution will not ignore this point. "

Ai Ting seemed to be choked for a moment, he stared at Ji Lan's handsome face for a while, and suddenly laughed.

"So that's the case, instead of taking the route of mental defense, have you changed to playing the less serious crime?"

Ai Ting straightened his upper body, wondering if it was Yu Lv's illusion, but he always felt that apart from the usual sarcasm, Ai Ting looked at Ji Lan with a hint of hatred in his eyes today.But this hatred was not all directed at Ji Lan, it was very complicated anyway, and Yulu didn't know how to interpret it.

"Okay, let's see how the defense finds other scapegoats? If they intend to claim that the crime is less suspicious, at least they must have someone to suspect? Or is the defense planning to say that it is the prosecution's responsibility? ?”

"That's what the defense wants to prove next. Allow me to call my witnesses, Your Honor."

Ji Lan respectfully bowed to the judge's bench, Yulu saw the doors leading to the witness preparation room open, and a dull and ordinary face poked his head out.

It's Li Fu.Yulu didn't recognize him for a while, although he had seen his name in the guard roster, but he was much thinner than he appeared in the photo.I saw that he was wearing a suit that didn't fit well, and the tie he had specially tied was still on one side, as if he had never used such a thing in his life, and he looked cramped.

And he seemed to be quite frightened. He stepped into the courtroom and looked around for a while. Yulu saw his eyes linger on Ye Chang in the dock for a while, and then he walked towards the witness stand under the guidance of the bailiff.

"Witness, what is your name and identity?" asked the woman on the judge's bench.

Yulu saw that the man named Li Fu turned his head and stared intently at Ye Chang in the dock. He opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but in the end it ended up in a murmur.

"Witness?" the judge asked again.

"I, my name is Li Fu."

The ordinary man quickly replied, Yulu watched him fumble in his pocket for a while, and took out a dark handkerchief that only Ojisan would use, folded it into a square and wiped the sweat off his face.

"I... I am a security guard, I work in a youth activity center, and I am 38 years old." Li Fu said with a look of panic.

Yulu saw that he was clasping his hands, the handkerchief was soaked with sweat.He couldn't help but find it funny. Although most people would be nervous when they first went to court, it was unusual to be so nervous.

"Then defense, you may begin to question your witnesses."

The female judge said gently, and Ji Lan took a step forward and walked to the witness stand.

"Your name is Li Fu, right? How long have you been working as a security guard at the Youth Activity Center?"

Ji Lan asked, Li Fu still looked nervous, and seemed to turn a deaf ear to Ji Lan's question, just kept pulling his handkerchief.

"Mr. Li Fu, don't be nervous. I invite you here today to clarify some things you have seen and heard in the past. We will not ask you about things you don't know, let alone force you to answer against your will."

Ji Lan said softly, Li Fu glanced at him, Yulu felt that he seemed to be hesitating, his lips were tightly pressed together, and then loosened after a while.

"Mr. Li?" Ji Lan asked, but Li Fu suddenly raised his head and looked directly at the judge's bench above.

"Please... Excuse me, can I, can I say it?"

Ji Lan was startled, and the three judges on the bench were obviously also startled.Ji Lan looked at Li Fu.

"What do you want to say? Mr. Li Fu."

"Well, I don't know if it's too late to say it now... Brother Ye has already been arrested, I don't understand... The court is still trying something, so I don't know if I can say it now..."

Li Fu raised his head and looked at the judge's bench with the expression of a strong man breaking his wrist. Yulu saw that there were tears in his eyes.

"I did it."

He said something that made Ai Ting jump from the prosecutor's seat.

"This rape case... the person who raped the little boy in the activity center was me. It was me, Li Fu."

***

The whole court was boiling.

Needless to say, Ai Ting saw that he was so excited that he stood up to support the case, and almost jumped out of the prosecutor's seat. He pointed to the witness stand and said:

"Disagreement! What this witness said is not true, obviously colluding with the defense!"

But Yulu looked at Ji Lan with a shocked expression. This was probably the first time in his life that he was stunned in front of the witness stand and forgot to refute the prosecution's objection.

There were also exclamations in the auditorium, and several reporters rushed out of the court after bowing their heads and copying notes.The only one who was relatively calm was the judge in the middle of the judge's bench, and he knocked on the gavel calmly.

"Quiet, please pay attention to court order."

He said in a low voice, and the court calmed down a little.

"Defense, are you going to continue questioning this witness?" the judge asked Ji Lan again.

Seeing that Ji Lan blinked, Yulu looked at the witness who was covering his face with a handkerchief in front of him.

"Yes, my lord, please let me continue."

The judge nodded.Ji Lan took a deep breath, as if she was still sorting out her thoughts.Yulu can fully understand his mood. They desperately searched for suspects other than Ye Chang, but they didn't expect to find nowhere to find them. Du Gonggu, but picked up the first prize lottery ticket on the road.

"Witness, you said you were the murderer who sexually assaulted the victim? Did you mean that just now?"

Ji Lan asked in a low voice, Li Fu nodded stiffly, "Yes, I did it."

He paused, and then added, "I, I should have come forward and confessed earlier. But I have never had the courage. My wife told me that you want me to come to the court to testify, and I finally..."

Yulu looked at Ye Chang who was in the dock and finally raised his head, and looked at Li Fu who was on the witness stand with a puzzled look.The whispers in the courtroom grew louder.

"Then what time did you enter that toilet?" Ji Lan asked again.

"I... I went in at five...it seems to be around six o'clock."

"However, there is no video of you as a witness in the surveillance video from [-]:[-] to [-]:[-]. How can the witness explain it?"

"No... no image?"

Li Fu said with a stiff face, then lowered his head in a state of embarrassment.Seeing that Ji Lan seemed to sigh, Yulu put one hand on the witness stand and said:

"Mr. Li, as the defense, I admire your courage to plead guilty in court. But if you plead guilty alone, but there is no way to provide enough evidence to prove that you are a criminal, nothing will change the result, do you understand? Mr. Lee."

"I, I really went in!"

Li Fu became excited, "I really went to that toilet, please believe me. If...if it's not five to six, then, then it will be earlier, maybe I will go in when it rains. "

"Go in when it rains, do you mean between two o'clock and three o'clock?" Ji Lan asked.

"Yes, yes... probably, probably." Li Fu stammered habitually.

"As soon as you entered the toilet, you stayed there until the victim came in, and you never left, right?"

Li Fu nodded with difficulty, and Ji Lan continued to ask, "Then before the police came in after six o'clock, you jumped out of the transom and left, is that so?"

"Yes...that's right."

"What does the victim look like?" Ji Lan asked.

"I, I don't remember."

"What was he wearing? Do you remember what kind of costume he was wearing?"

"Wearing... the upper body is blue-green, like a uniform, and the lower body seems to be white..."

Li Fu seemed to have woken up suddenly, he clenched his fingers and raised his head again.

"I, I am really a murderer, please believe me! Please arrest me immediately!"

There was another uproar in the courtroom. Yulu heard Ji Lan standing in front of the witness stand, rubbing the side of his lips with his fingertips. Yulu knew that this meant that he was thinking about something at high speed in his mind, and he only spent three seconds indulging in it. Ji Lan began to think seriously about the situation in front of her with her sexy movements.

He knew what Ji Lan was thinking about.This witness came so coincidentally that it was like a package dropped from outer space.Although the packaging is exquisite on the outside, I don't know if it is a meteorite or a gift when it is opened.

As Li Fu's friendly witness, Ji Lan can of course let the interrogation stop here, make Li Fu a suspect, and let Ai Ting break his testimony.This is much more beneficial to them. Once Ai Ting cannot completely deny Li Fu's statement, the case will follow Ji Lan's wish, with one more suspect, and the chance of Ye Chang being convicted will be greatly reduced.

The "answer" that belongs to their defense is at hand.Although that probably isn't the "truth".

Yulu saw that Ji Lan was obviously also struggling, and her five fingers on the witness stand were extremely pale.

"Well, then the defense has no problem..."

Just as Ji Lan opened her mouth, she heard Ai Ting who was sitting opposite her snort coldly.

"is this okay?"

Ai Ting said in a meaningful tone: "Lawyer Ji, I thought you were at least a serious and professional lawyer, but you just went astray a little bit. Now it seems that you are not only going astray, but you are going the wrong way from the beginning. Orientation?"

Yulu saw that Ji Lan's fingertips trembled, and his hand was still pressed on the witness stand, and it took a long time before he let out a breath.Yulu saw him walking back to the defense stand and took a stack of files.

"Witness, please look at this."

Ji Lan pushed down his glasses with his middle finger, and Yulu felt that some of his cells became active again.Li Fu seemed quite confused. He looked up at the judge above, and then looked down at the information Ji Lan gave him.

"This is the record of the conversation between Ye Chang and me when I met with the law. The prosecution should have asked the same question. Mr. Ye Chang said that it started to rain heavily after two o'clock, because another colleague of yours, Lu Xing, returned The guardhouse hides from the rain,
