Chapter Thirty-Eight Swords and Swords(1/2)

In the lounge, Lu Ming was immersed in writing something.

Li Mingxuan finally couldn't help it, "Your strategy may be to eliminate my ability to rob things, but in this way, the victim Li Xiaoyan will be more innocent in the eyes of the jury, not to mention that I beat her to death."

Well, if I just hurt her, wouldn't she become even more hateful?"

Lu Ming raised his head and looked at him: "You are very hateful. Why did she take you by her side for a long time? Because you are lame? Or because you don't take a shower? You know the reason. Sooner or later it will happen.

Yes, but you are greedy for a comfortable life and have a sense of luck. If you ask me, you deserve it even if you are sentenced to death by beheading!"

"You..." Li Mingxuan's face turned green and white, and he stood up suddenly, but then his eyes lit up. Looking at Lu Ming who continued to work hard with his head buried in the pen, Li Mingxuan sat down, lowered his head and began to think.

"Tsinghua, come on, go and do something for me!" Lu Ming waved to Chen Qinghua.

Chen Qinghua perked up and felt that what he had done recently had little to do with this case and did not help his boss at all.

But after taking the piece of paper from Lu Ming and reading what was written on it, he couldn't help but be stunned.

The boss asked him to collect all information on the accidents involving Lingwei cars. If there were victims, he should also meet with the victims' families to learn the details.

"Hold on tight these days, you don't have to follow this case anymore," Lu Ming said.

"Okay..." Although Chen Qinghua was unwilling in every way, he could not go against the boss's wishes.

"Tsinghua, this matter is very important. You must do it well, be meticulous and attentive, you know?" Lu Ming looked at him and emphasized his tone, "This may be about whether you, Brother Lu, and I can stand here!"

In fact, Chen Qinghua should be a few years older than Lu Ming, but the boss calls himself "brother" to naturally mean that he is close.

Seeing Lu Ming's solemn expression, Chen Qinghua felt immediately relieved and nodded: "Don't worry."

Wang Daan watched this scene with some helplessness. Chen Qinghua at least had something to do. From beginning to end, he was really just a decoration.

At this time, the bailiff knocked on the door gently and said, "Lawyer Lu, it's time to start."



Li Mingxuan sat on the witness stand again.

Liu Hanhuan walked up to him and said, "Mr. Li Si, are you feeling better now? Can we start?"

Li Mingxuan nodded lightly.

"Mr. Li Si, according to your latest testimony, you hit Ms. Li Xiaoyan on the head with the sculpture that killed Ms. Li Xiaoyan, right?"

"Objection." Lu Ming raised his hand, "When Mr. Li Haoran hit Ms. Li Xiaoyan on the head, this sculpture was not the murder weapon."

Liu Hanhuan spread his hands, "But it was the murder weapon that killed Ms. Li Xiaoyan, wasn't it? Lawyer Lu, if you follow your strict timeline, objective things will become very confusing."

Cao Guan nodded, indicating that the objection was invalid and the witness needed to answer the question.

"Yes." Li Mingxuan pointed at the microphone and said softly.

"You understand and consider Ms. Li Xiaoyan so well, but in the end, you hit Ms. Li Xiaoyan's head with a deadly iron sculpture?" Liu Hanxuan sounded surprised, turned around, and shook his head at the jury.

The jurors also shook their heads and felt sad for poor Ms. Li Xiaoyan.

Li Mingxuan was silent.

"Is there a third person in the room at that time?" Liu Hanhuan asked.

"No."

"When you left, did you see a third person entering Ms. Li Xiaoyan's room?"

"No." Li Mingxuan shook his head again.

"So, you left the seriously injured Ms. Li Xiaoyan alone and left her struggling in extreme pain?"

Liu Hanhuan didn't wait for Li Mingxuan to react, "Besides, you hit Ms. Li Xiaoyan's head many times, right?"

"I didn't!" Li Mingxuan looked up.

"Yes, you didn't. You just knew Ms. Li Xiaoyan so well and sympathized with her experience. In the end, you cruelly hurt her and left her seriously injured to return to the rental house that Ms. Li Xiaoyan rented for you.

, admiring those expensive accessories, sighing, ah, Ms. Li Xiaoyan, what a lovely and pitiful person she is!..."

Liu Hanhuan bowed slightly towards the judge's bench and the jury's bench, "I have no problem!"

Leaving a pale-faced Li Mingxuan behind, he turned and walked back to the prosecutor's seat.

Zhang Jingjing looked at the master with admiration. Unexpectedly, in just ten minutes, the master came up with a solution and launched a beautiful counterattack, which wiped out the defense's advantage just now.

Lu Ming stood up and walked to the witness stand.

"You know Ms. Li Xiaoyan very well, right?" Lu Ming asked.

"Maybe I understand her a little bit."

"She can be said to be your benefactor, right?"

"Yes, she hired me and allowed me to obtain a temporary residence permit. I was originally living with a bunch of homeless people."

"Does she often ask you to drink with her?"

"Yes."

"As a servant, do you think you are qualified? Because your leg is lame, right?"

Li Mingxuan was silent.

"Why do you think she hired you?"

Li Mingxuan still said nothing.

"Before you were disfigured, did you think that the adjective handsome was suitable?" Lu Ming said, "Please show me Exhibit No. 19 of Category D."

It was a photo of Li Mingxuan following Li Xiaoyan, a paper cutout from a gossip tabloid. In the photo, you can clearly see Li Mingxuan's original appearance.

This paper-cut was sent to Cao Guan and the jury.

"Using most people's aesthetic standards, you are still very handsome."

"So, as a person who has limited mobility and cannot perform the duties of a servant, do you really not understand the reason why Ms. Li Xiaoyan hired you? Especially, she often gives you expensive gifts?" Lu Ming pressed Li Mingxuan.

"Objection, object to the defense using malicious speculation to stigmatize the victim!" Liu Hanhuan raised his hand.

Lu Ming nodded, "I'll ask my question again."

Looking at Li Mingxuan, "Ms. Li Xiaoyan is a very pitiful woman. You are taking advantage of her loneliness because you don't want to be a tramp anymore, right?"

Li Mingxuan bit his lip and said nothing, his face turning blue and white.

However, he clenched his fists and his body was shaking slightly.

"Witness, please answer my question!" Lu Ming raised his voice.

"Yes, I was deceiving her!" Li Mingxuan clenched his fists and raised his head suddenly, a little hysterical, "I was just taking a chance and thought it would be fine! Because, because she is a kind woman, I know that she, she doesn't

Will force me!"

"But I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it!" Li Mingxuan shook his head in pain, "I really didn't expect..."

"But, I really didn't kill her, I really didn't kill her... How could I want to kill her?" Li Mingxuan lowered his head and murmured, "I didn't kill her, I didn't kill her..."

Lu Ming sighed softly, "Yes, Ms. Li Xiaoyan did not want to force you, but it was a misunderstanding that caused a small conflict between you..."

Liu Hanhuan raised his hand, "I object to the defense deliberately downplaying the cruelty of the case. Ms. Li Xiaoyan died tragically. This was not a small conflict!"

Lu Ming turned around and said, "I request to summon the prosecution's second witness, forensic officer Liu Kuang."

"Liu Kuang, can you come to court today?" Cao Guan asked calmly.

Liu Kuang went to court yesterday and told the autopsy results, but Lu Ming only asked one question, were there any fingerprints found on the murder weapon?

Liu Kuang answered no.

If the witness is summoned to court again, if the witness is not available today, he will have to schedule another appointment. After all, it is an impromptu summons.

This is also the reason why many cases are delayed for a long time.

Liu Hanhuan was about to get up and said that the witness was not nearby and further communication was needed. In this way, because several courts may have case hearing arrangements, the next one may be three or four days later, giving him enough time to prepare.

But the main thing is that the tragic image of the suspect created by the opposing lawyer in court will be diluted over time.

More or less, in today's court, I still feel a little bit at a disadvantage, trying to find ways to deal with every move.

This young rookie lawyer named Lu Qianxing has created pressure for himself that he has never experienced in Beiguan legal circles for more than ten years.

It seems that what I am facing are those superior ghost lawyers from the Donghai Region, which is incredible.

Liu Hanxuan was thinking wildly and just stood up to explain that he was unable to contact the witness for the time being.

But at this time, the large wooden door of the courtroom was pushed open, and Liu Kuang hurried in.

Lu Ming immediately smiled and said, "Mr. Liu is here!"

Liu Hanhuan turned around and saw it, his eyes immediately condensed.

"Why are you here?"

When Liu Kuang came over, Liu Hanhuan frowned and asked.

"Didn't your office assistant call me and ask me to come?" Liu Kuang looked surprised.

Liu Hanhuan looked at Lu Ming again, feeling suddenly uneasy.
