Who Made Him a Lawyer?-Chapter 122 - 117: Verdict! Court Adjourned!

If Wang Chao illegally went to investigate secretly...

After obtaining the evidence, he could issue a supplementary warrant, and the evidence would naturally be valid.

But Xu Liang was different.

Even if Wang Chao supplements the evidence, he still needs to act as a witness to vouch for the submitted information!

So.

If Wang Chao was really on the scene at that time...

Why didn't Wang Chao just take the evidence himself, issue a supplementary search warrant, and submit it in the end?

This way he would get credit and avoid Xu Liang undergoing a secondary review.

At this moment, Wang Hai was also stunned, sitting on the bench with a slightly shocked face, looking at Xu Liang in disbelief.

When he was arrested, Wang Hai thought that Du Tao had guessed his mind, planning to use a clever strategy to catch him off guard, that's why he was taken by surprise and investigated without any scruples.

But now Zhao Yi said...

Illegal?

Evidence obtained illegally!?

In an instant, Wang Hai's face looked very ugly, the handcuffs clamping his hands were tense, and he stared at Xu Liang intently.

He guessed right about the police, Du Tao indeed was law-abiding and cautious.

But couldn't resist... there was a genius in the police team, who took Wang Chao to investigate illegally!

Xu Liang said nothing.

Zhao Yi furrowed his brow and inquired again:

"Witness of the case, you're allowed to speak."

After pondering for a while, Xu Liang spoke: "Officer Wang, who was accompanying, does not know how to use a camera, so I did the shooting."

"This evidence is absolutely not obtained illegally!"

Zhao Yi felt what he said made sense.

But thinking of the other's stained past... he wasn't assured and asked again:

"In that case, it should have been submitted by him."

Your words are a bit dense!

Xu Liang thought for a long time and finally said:

"When the police support arrived, Officer Wang and I were sent to the hospital for emergency treatment."

"Due to treatment during that time, the submission of evidence was delayed."

"It wasn't until Prosecutor Su arrived with others that I recalled the evidence, so I submitted it on the spot."

Prosecutor Su...

Zhao Yi was a bit suspicious.

Does the Hanhai City Local Prosecutor's Office have a person surnamed Su in charge of this case?

He looked towards the prosecution.

"Did Prosecutor Su arrive on the scene?"

The prosecution looked at each other and finally shook their heads.

No one?

It shouldn't be, logically, there should be an endorsement at the scene...

While he was pondering, Xu Liang spoke again.

"Prosecutor Su is in the hearing gallery."

The hearing gallery?

Isn't the hearing gallery all...

Zhao Yi was stunned, instinctively turning his head, only to see someone in the hearing gallery raising their hand.

Su Guo spoke calmly:

"I can vouch in my personal capacity, meanwhile, the hospital surveillance is included in the clues submitted by the local prosecutor, and the judge can conduct a review."

Zhao Yi looked at him and silently withdrew his gaze.

From the Supreme Prosecution Office.

Then there's no problem.

However, Zhao Yi started to follow procedures and looked through the evidence submitted by the prosecution.

Sure enough, he found surveillance, and once it was played, he indeed saw the entire process of evidence submission at the time.

"Defense attorney for the defendant, do you have any other objections?"

Zhao Yi inquired.

Qian Li was silent.

What other objections does he have?

Honestly speaking, having the courage to attend the trial is already impressive... to openly question the authenticity of the opponent's evidence here is even more admirable courage.

But the opponent's evidence is vouched for by the Supreme Prosecution Office and others, and meanwhile, there are endorsements proving it at the scene.

And there are the testimonies from Zhang Mang and others...

This evidence involving Wang Hai has already become irrefutable!

And other than that...

What else can he question? There's not a single loophole in the whole case for him to exploit, and what Wang Hai has done has long been deeply bound and locked!

Eventually.

Qian Li turned his head to look at Wang Hai, who was once arrogant.

Wang Hai said nothing, his whole body muscles tensed, his face ironed with hatred in his eyes, not knowing whether it was for Wang Chao or Xu Liang.

But no matter what, he did not speak.

Seeing this, Qian Li withdrew his gaze and sighed.

The charges listed by the prosecution are just too many.

Even if he really exploded and ignored the Six Ministries dismissing half of the charges, the remaining half would be enough to kill Wang Hai ten times!

Since the appearance of Xu Liang eliminated the last trace of existence, if this case continues...

It's meaningless!!!

"Our side..."

Qian Li took a deep breath and said solemnly:

"Has no objections."

No objections?

Zhao Yi nodded, not surprised, just turned to look at Wang Hai.

"Defendants Wang Hai, Zhang Mang, Liu Shengjie, do you have any objections?"

The moment those words fell.

On the defendant's bench, Zhang Mang was already dazed, his whole body trembling uncontrollably, as if his soul had been emptied.

Qian Li sniffed slightly, looking at the other party.

Only to see Zhang Mang's lower body, already soaked with urine.

His trembling legs kept shaking the dripping urine, spreading it across the floor, emitting a fishy stench.

"No...no, I have objections, I have objections!"

Zhang Mang said, full of fear, yelling loudly:

"I have objections!"

Zhao Yi's face remained indifferent, having seen such scenes many times.

"Defendant Zhang Mang, what objections do you have?"

"I....," Zhang Mang stammered, his mind in chaos.

The reason he opposed was due to a survival instinct, how could there be any other opinion?

If there is any opinion, it is to refute the judge's verdict!

"I...," Zhang Mang felt a little suffocated.

"Defendant Zhang Mang!"

Zhao Yi's suddenly serious expression, his words carrying an imposing force, pressed down on Zhang Mang with his language.

"What objections do you have!?"

In an instant.

The language directly broke Zhang Mang's mental defenses, his lips moved slightly, and his features finally collapsed.

Tears uncontrollably flowed from his eyes.

"I was wrong... I know I was wrong."

"Give me a chance... I will change, I really will change!"

"Please give me another chance, I realize my mistakes."

He covered his face and wept bitterly, snot and tears mixed with saliva streaming through his fingers.

Zhao Yi ignored this pitiful sight.

"Defendants Liu Shengjie, Wang Hai, do you have any objections?"

Liu Shengjie didn't speak, his face was full of despair, his eyes vacant, as if he were a soulless shell.

As for Wang Hai....

"I..."

He parted his tense lips, wanting to say something, but ultimately said nothing and remained silent.

Seeing the three remain silent.

Zhao Yi discussed with the surrounding judges and stood up.

"Now, this court believes that the defendants Wang Hai, Liu Shengjie, and Zhang Mang are guilty of intentional injury, accidental homicide, intentional murder, organizing prostitution, abuse..."

"According to the Criminal Procedure Law..... the judgment is as follows."

"Defendant Wang Hai is sentenced to... death!"

"Defendant Liu Shengjie is sentenced to... death!"

"Defendant Zhang Mang is sentenced to... death!!!"

"Defendants, do you accept the court's judgment?"

Wang Hai and Liu Shengjie still did not speak.

Only Zhang Mang continued to weep, and upon hearing this, his body lost control, leaving a foul smell from below.

"I'm wrong, please give me another chance!"

"I realize my mistakes, I truly do!!!"

Zhang Mang shouted in panic.

Zhao Yi ignored him, leaving only one sentence.

"If you have any objections, you may appeal after the court adjourns."

With that said.

He paused, feeling the gaze of over a dozen pairs of eyes in the audience, and said:

"Now announcing, the trial is concluded, this case...."

"Court adjourned!"

Finished speaking, Zhao Yi expressionlessly stood up and quickly walked out.

His pace was brisk.

The clerk and judges beside him almost couldn't keep up.

Only after leaving the courtroom, and with the eyes behind him disappearing, did he finally relax.

Soon after, a wave of emptiness struck him.

The judge beside him silently walked up to him.

"Old Zhao, you're the one!"

"Facing so many leaders, you stubbornly completed the verdict... you're something!"

The judge silently gave a thumbs up.

Upon seeing this.

Zhao Yi's face darkened.

Did he want to pronounce the verdict?

Did he want to take on this case!?

He was forced!

The Chen Dong case and Sun Quan case both happened to position him to take on the Wang Hai case... sometimes Zhao Yi wondered if he had offended someone and was set up!!!!

"Let's hurry and go."

Zhao Yi, with a dark expression, quickly led his team away.

The judge behind them asked:

"By the way, do you think what that witness said... is true?"

Frankly speaking.

The judge still felt there was something fishy.

A scene was shot in the basement with Wang Chao separated by a wall? Why say that?

When it involved Xu Liang.

Zhao Yi became energetic.

He got upset, stopped walking, turned to the judge, and said through gritted teeth:

"From what I know of him, this guy... he definitely conducted an improper investigation!!!"

Zhao Yi dared to swear to the heavens, the origin of this evidence is definitely suspicious!

Otherwise, following Xu Liang's usual approach, he would directly confront the issue instead of slowly explaining.

"It really was an improper investigation!?"

The judge was also stunned.

"Then you..."

"Does it matter if it was improper?"

Zhao Yi sighed.

"His actions were improper, but the evidence is not false, be it testimony, physical evidence, or the leads derived from the evidence, they are all correct."

"Even if acquired from an improper investigation... a judge still has to accept the evidence."

"Besides..."

Zhao Yi thought of the people in the audience, and his mouth twitched.

"The trial... is just a formality anyway."

Hearing this.

The judge fell silent, his face full of bewilderment.

"I need a break for the next couple of days, the director and the head of the business court pressured me... it's only right for me to take a few days of paid leave."

Zhao Yi sighed.

"Let's go."

With that, they quickly departed from the scene, like they were escaping.

...

Meanwhile.

In the courtroom.

"Please exit the courtroom in an orderly manner."

The court officer said, before leaving.

On the defendant's bench, Qian Li glanced at the three, Wang Hai and the others.

A few court officers approached, taking away the dazed Liu Shengjie and the silent Wang Hai.

As for Zhang Mang...

When he was lifted, his legs went limp, like noodles that couldn't be straightened, feeling dizzy with each step.

Moist footprints were left beneath him.

"Sigh."

Qian Li no longer had the energy, he sighed deeply, grabbed his briefcase, and glanced at the audience.

He happened to see someone in the audience watching him.

Instantly, Qian Li maintained his composure and swiftly walked out.

This case... is finally over!

A million-dollar commission sounds tempting, but....

What good is earning money if you can't spend it!

Whoever wants to take it, let them; he won't touch it again in his life!

"Why is this young man running away so fast?"

The member of the Ministry of Public Security found it amusing seeing Qian Li leave as if escaping.

As he turned his head.

He noticed someone running even faster.

Xu Liang had seemingly vanished the moment the adjournment was announced!

The Public Security member was amazed and said:

"How is little Xu running even faster!?"
