bullying the little thing

Chapter 42 Bad Omen

The third court trial, victory or defeat in one fell swoop.

The presiding judge formally notified the lawyers of both parties that the stalemate would seriously affect the efficiency of the city's judiciary.

At present, there are still many major cases that cannot be scheduled for trial, and the court is facing strong pressure from public opinion and doubts from the industry.

Moreover, such a sensitive case that violated social ethics should not tarnish the efficient image of the city's first-instance case that has not exceeded three trials.

Therefore, after the third trial, a judgment must be made, and if there is any doubt, the appeal is awaited.

Sometimes, the life-threatening matter that the person involved is experiencing is just a part of the stylized work in the eyes of others. You can't be too resentful, and there is no right or wrong. It can only be said that the other party is not not paying attention, but No time to pay attention.

This is the so-called power of life and death.

Ouyang Hongfei parked the car at the gate of the court, looked at Chen Yu who was sitting in the passenger seat in a daze, his heart felt as if he had been pulled, how much he wished he could hide him at home, and not let him stop for this hateful thing. The lawsuit came out.

He snapped his fingers in front of Chen Yu, Chen Yu was shocked, blinked his eyes, and a distant and similar picture in his memory appeared before his eyes again, but he didn't continue to recall it.

Ouyang Hongfei took Chen Yu's hand, held it tightly, and interlocked his fingers. He smiled lightly and said to Chen Yu: "Believe me, no matter what happens, I will be by your side."

The gentleman's smile is so pretty, it instantly drove away the shadows covering him, but he was still very uneasy.

He wanted to tell his husband that since he woke up in the morning, he had been inexplicably flustered, always feeling that something bad would happen.

But the husband pressed his forehead on his own again, followed by a domineering kiss, so Chen Yu didn't want to do or think about anything except to cherish the tenderness with him.

But as soon as he walked into the trial court, Chen Yu wasn't the only one who was uneasy.

Ouyang Hongfei's uneasiness had more realistic reasons, because he noticed the posture of Ye Mingzhen and others. They were calm on the surface, and even seemed to be in awe of him, but in fact they were furious and imposing.

They pretend to be humble and cowardly, but in fact they are full of pride and self-satisfaction.

Ouyang Hongfei knew at a glance that they must be planning some kind of conspiracy, a conspiracy that would make them sure of winning.

"What's wrong?" Chen Yu asked him, his astonishment must have been revealed on his face.

"Oh, no, nothing."

Ouyang Hongfei smiled with his mouth curled up, but soon became serious again. He said solemnly to Chen Yu: "Chen Yu, you must listen to me in court later, I will let you say Whatever else you say, don’t make up your own mind and say the wrong thing!”

Chen Yu blinked and nodded hesitantly, feeling more uneasy in his heart.

A few more steps forward, they encountered even stranger things.

They saw Kevin, Kevin bruised.

He was wearing a pair of blue and black jeans and a silver-gray sweater, and he sat slumped on the rightmost seat in the first row of the hearing booth. in the shadows.

Even so, they could clearly see that Kevin had a piece of gauze wrapped around his forehead, his eye sockets were all bruised, and there was a black and purple blood scab at the corner of his mouth.

His body was convulsed with sobs, and his trembling lips seemed to be saying prayers.

"Kay..." Chen Yu screamed out, and took a step forward, trying to rush to Kevin's side, but Ouyang Hongfei grabbed his wrist.

He turned his head and saw Mr.'s stern and stern look, like a mountain of orders. He had no choice but to go to the defense seat arranged for them with him, but his eyes were always fixed on Kevin's direction. .

Kevin seemed to feel that someone was staring at him. He raised his head and looked for the source of his gaze. When he met Chen Yu's gaze, the tears that had been rolling in his eyes were finally overwhelmed, like pearls with a broken string. Every time the eyelashes flickered and dripped sadly, Chen Yu was even more worried.

But not far from Kevin, Kai Qingyang, who was sitting on the prosecution seat, saw the two boys looking at each other, and gave Kevin a hard look. Kevin withdrew his gaze, raised his hands, Cover your face completely.

"Sir, what's the matter? Kevin seems to have been injured!"

"Leave him alone and deal with your own business."

Chen Yu was surprised, and even more flustered, because the tone of his husband was unprecedentedly indifferent.

All the people involved in the case were present. Ye Mingzhen and Kai Qingyang sat in a row with the prosecution lawyer Lin Yuzhan on the right side of the court, and Ouyang Hongfei and Chen Yu sat opposite them on the defense seat on the left side of the court.

Wearing handcuffs, Chen Cuicui was escorted to court by the judicial police and locked in the dock in the middle of the courtroom surrounded by a waist-high wooden fence.

As the immediate family member of the victim, Min Long, Min Long's wife, Yan Jing, sat on the plaintiff's table and posed.

There were two defense witnesses sitting in the hearing booth. One of them was nurse Liang Xiaofei. She was a young and bright girl. , Nursing Chen Yu's body.

She is kind by nature. Although she was coerced and had to accept her share of the hush money, she couldn't pass the test of conscience after all. She took the risk to find Ouyang Hongfei and voluntarily appeared in court to testify in the last trial.

When Liang Xiaofei saw Chen Yu in the court, she waved happily. When Chen Yu saw her, he smiled sincerely and gratefully, and nodded to her.

Glancing at Xiaofei's side, he saw another long-lost face, with a bloated figure, bald head, small eyes, and a snub nose, smiling flatteringly at Chen Yu.

Chen Yu shrank involuntarily and looked away.

Ouyang Hongfei noticed it, put his left hand on his right hand, and pinched it lightly. He raised his head and met the doting gaze of his husband.

"Chen Yu, don't be afraid, Lu Sanqian is here to help us."

When Chen Yu saw his husband's smile, he felt a lot more at ease. He turned his eyes back to the fat uncle who came all the way from Qishi, and saw his guilty expression, flattering smile, and nervous wipe. He couldn't bear to remove the sweat from his forehead, so he smiled amiably at Lu Sanqian.

According to the practice of the trial, at the beginning of the trial, the prosecution lawyer is still the first to make a self-report.

"We are here to clarify the facts again. My clients, Ye Mingzhen and Mr. Kai Qingyang, were invited by Min Long to room B05 of 'Xiaoyaotian' to observe Chen Yu's trial process."

Lin Yuzhan stood in the middle of the court, with his hands behind his back for a while, and raised in front of his eyes for a while, spittle spattering, talking endlessly.

"During this period of time, both Mr. Ye and Mr. Kai did have relations with Chen Yu, and they also used some tools on him, but we must explain again and again that their actions are absolutely It was not voluntary, nor did it force Chen Yu.

"Because what they did was either invited by the person involved, Chen Yu, or forced by Min Long."

Ouyang Hongfei didn't bother to get up again. He sat on the seat, supported his head with one arm, sighed for a while, and then jokingly said, "Lawyer for the prosecution, are you ashamed?"

"Defense lawyer, I give you an ultimatum, please stop despising me with words, or you will bear the consequences!"

Lin Yuzhan put his left hand behind his back, bent his right hand in front of his chest, stretched out his index finger, and pointed in the direction of Ouyang Hongfei. He was originally righteous, but suddenly became cunning and sinister.

"Besides, we got a piece of evidence of 'draining the bottom of the pot' this time."

Ouyang Hongfei sighed instinctively from his throat, looked at Lin Yuzhan fixedly, and couldn't help clenching his fists.

"First, sir, what did he say?"

Chen Yu's startled and uneasy voice came from beside him, but Ouyang Hongfei did not look away from Lin Yuzhan, but calmly told Chen Yu: "Don't talk without my consent."

Lin Yuzhan was very satisfied with Ouyang Hongfei's stern and anxious expression. He smiled slyly, and then asked the presiding judge to present his "drainage from the bottom" evidence.

A bailiff carried a portable computer and placed it on the empty witness stand on the left side of the trial seat. He turned on the computer and operated it skillfully.

"Our evidence is a piece of..."

Lin Yuzhan walked a few steps in the direction of Ouyang Hongfei while talking, deliberately prolonging the pronunciation of the word "Duan" to whet the appetite of the other party. Announce:

"It's a segment, audio, frequency."

"What, what?" Chen Yu stared at Lin Yuzhan with deer-like eyes.

Ouyang Hongfei held Chen Yu's left hand again. This time, he held it extremely tightly, as if he was afraid that Chen Yu would break free, or that he would never be able to hold him again.

"First, sir!"

Chen Yu looked at Ouyang Hongfei with trembling lips, several conjectures flashed in his mind, but each of them made him feel outrageous, and each outrageous thing might become reality immediately.

"what happened?"

How much he wished that Ouyang Hongfei could tell him that the wild thoughts in his mind at this moment would never happen.

But Ouyang Hongfei didn't say a word, he pursed his lips tightly, like a soldier fighting to the death, his eyes fixed on Lin Yuzhan slowly moved to Kevin who was covering his face and crying on the seat.

"Everything Ye Mingzhen and Kai Qingyang did to me was under the coercion of Min Long. What he did to me was all pretending, and it didn't do much harm."

The voice coming from the audio equipment was indeed Chen Yu's voice, and there were cuckoos and magpies singing in the church garden in the background.

However, this audio has been tampered with. Some of Chen Yu's syllables were edited and rearranged, deleted and moved. For example, "Ye Mingzhen" and "He" were added before "Kai Qingyang", and "" Ye Mingzhen", "He".

"Ye Mingzhen and Kai Qingyang have been helping me, begging Min Long to let me go, and he tried to call the police, but they threatened him and beat him, so he had to give in."

Same trick.

In order to avoid being detected by the forensic personnel, they deliberately did not modify the details, so "he" and "they" remained as they were when Chen Yu spoke.

However, this deviation can have a very simple and reasonable explanation, which is Chen Yu's slip of the tongue in his self-report.

In the church, what Chen Yu said according to Kevin's account, that is, the original material of this fake audio, is actually like this:

Everything Kai Qingyang did to me was under the coercion of Ye Mingzhen and Min Long. What he did to me was all pretentious and did not cause much harm.

Kai Qingyang kept helping me, begging Ye Mingzhen and Min Long for mercy, begging them to let me go, and he tried to call the police, but they threatened him and beat him, so he could only give in.

"No...how, how is it possible?"

Chen Yu stared in astonishment, feeling as if he had fallen into an ice cave, floating in the water under the ice layer, the cold was biting, and thousands of arrows pierced his heart.

Ouyang Hongfei clenched Chen Yu's trembling thigh tightly, but he couldn't stop Chen Yu's trembling, and his hands were also driven to tremble.

"Chen Yu, be strong!"
