Crazy, You Call This a Trainee Lawyer

That night, the Lin Mansion.

At the dinner table, Zhao Xiaoxiao handed over a USB flash drive.

"Here, here are the materials you want, and they are all here!"

"Thank you, second girl, you are really my father's caring little padded jacket..."

"Zhang Wei, go to hell, be careful I will stab you to death with chopsticks!"

After Zhang Wei took the USB flash drive, he made fun of it by the way.

This naturally provoked a burst of scolding from the second daughter.

This is what Zhang Wei wanted, and he was full of energy all night.

After dinner, the two went back to their rooms.

Zhang Wei turned on the computer and began to check the data on the USB flash drive.

In the eyes of outsiders, he has less than 24 hours to prepare, but it is not.

"It's 8 o'clock in the evening, and there are still 12 hours before going to work tomorrow. After deducting 6 hours of rest, there are still 6 hours. For me, it is 60 hours. This time should be enough to prepare!"

Zhang Wei looked at the time on his phone and began to go all out to prepare the case.

He, Zhang Wei, will never fight an uncertain battle.

...

The next day, morning.

6 hours of sleep is enough for Zhang Wei to recover and supplement the consumption of staying up late last night.

He closed his eyes and rubbed his forehead to wake himself up quickly.

Stimulated with cold water, after washing up, he packed up the documents in the room and headed straight to the law firm.

8 o'clock sharp.

He had already arrived at the law firm and walked into the office of the Criminal Division.

When Zhang Wei arrived, almost all the friends from the criminal team came.

Lin Yumeng even had two dark circles under her eyes, which showed that she did not sleep well yesterday.

"Just now the project department sent a message that the location of the moot court is in the internal studio hall on the upper floor of Jincheng Building, which has been set up as a court scene!"

"So the stage is ready?"

Hearing the old iron's notice, Zhang Wei smiled slightly.

"You're still in the mood for joking, this time your opponent is Young Master Lin, and the nature of this case..."

"I don't want to show off, just let the leaders remember me, maybe the big boss is watching too..."

Zhang Wei said something perfunctory, and then hurriedly approached Tie Ruyun, "Old Tie, is the person you called here?"

"When we arrive, people are waiting in the rest area downstairs, but don't you need to prepare things for the court?"

"It's not urgent, let's meet this "our witness" first!"

A few minutes later, the reception room on the 25th floor.

"Oh my God, she's not breathing!"

"Who will save her, who will save her, come quickly!"

"My daughter, my lovely daughter, I cannot live without you, I..."

Zhang Wei was holding the mobile phone, and there was a woman crying inside, with an extremely sad expression, her face was about to cry.

After the video was played, Zhang Wei took back his phone and looked at the woman in front of him.

This woman is in her thirties, wears heavy makeup, and has a dusty body. Because of her age and lack of maintenance, her figure has become slightly fatter.

"You want me to play such a woman?" The woman looked at Zhang Wei and asked inexplicably.

"Yes, I want you to play a sad middle-aged woman who was divorced early and lost her only daughter recently. She is helpless, lonely, and the sky will cry when she sees her."

"Is this requirement too high? I'm just a custom worker, and I'm about to retire..." The woman quickly shook her head.

She is not a professional actor. Although the nature of her work is somewhat similar to that of an actor, it is all incidental to her main job.

She is really not an actress!

"No way, big sister, I heard that you fell into prostitution at the age of 15, and you have been in this industry for 20 years. Who can have a worse life experience than you? Aren't you acting in your true colors?"

"That's all a lie. If I don't make myself miserable, those men who come whoring will give more tips. You don't know, young man. People nowadays are stingy. If you don't make up a good story Tell them, they are not happy to pay!"

"In this case, there is no way..."

Zhang Wei was silent for a moment, leaned in front of the woman, and asked in a low voice, "How much is an hour when you charge the most?"

"200 yuan."

"200 for 1 hour, right? After we make a statement in court, you will go to court as the first mock witness. Even if there is cross-examination, it will only take 10 minutes at most. I will pay you 2,000 yuan for 1 hour and 10 times the price. You see How about it?"

Hearing the price, the woman immediately beamed with joy.

"Oh my god, young man, I didn't expect you to pay so readily. If my guests were as easy to talk to as you, I would wake up laughing every day from my dreams."

"Okay, no problem, isn't it just playing a middle-aged woman who lost her daughter, leave it to me, I will show you what acting is!"

Looking at the woman's confident smile, Zhang Wei nodded in satisfaction.

"Old Tie, take your friend to prepare, after the court session, follow my instructions!"

"Fine……"

Although Tie Ruyun was a little speechless about Zhang Wei's arrangement, he still led the woman upstairs to prepare to go.

Zhang Wei also returned to the office again and began to prepare materials for the trial.

The moot trial was scheduled for 10 am, and the time passed in preparation.

...

Jincheng Group.

Internal big studio.

The space here is not small, it can completely accommodate one and a half basketball courts, and it is more than enough to be used as a moot court.

Jincheng Group's employees are already in place, starting to arrange the moot court scene.

This job is actually familiar to them, because Jincheng Law Firm often holds moot courts to conduct mock drills of some major cases.

As brothers in the same family, Jincheng Group naturally cooperated fully. Apart from shooting some promotional videos and advertisements, the biggest use of this big studio is to lend it to Jincheng Law Firm.

"Have you heard that today's moot court is the case of Master Lin Yufeng!"

"Good guy, the son of the second director's family, the opponent is also a member of our law firm?"

"I heard from the gossip that he is a newcomer in the Criminal Division. His name is Zhang. I can't remember it clearly. Anyway, it is a very common name."

"Then Young Master Lin is sure to win, what will this newcomer fight against Young Master Lin?"

"Perhaps the rookie wants to show off. Young Master Lin probably told the rookie before the court session, let him fight hard or something like that?"

"Just looking at you, you have never played tennis with the leader. Although they will say that you play well, they really don't want to lose to you!"

"Besides, how could a rookie win Young Master Lin? For the newcomer to go to court, the law firm probably decided to give Young Master Lin a chance to show himself in front of clients!"

"That's right, that's right, the result this time has long been predicted, there's no way Young Master Lin will lose!"

The employees of Jincheng Group were also gossiping, and all kinds of news were flying in the internal group, but they all believed that Lin Yufeng would win!

Just kidding, what would a rookie do to fight Lin Yufeng?

And a newcomer who had already been labeled as a loser had already taken the elevator and arrived in the big studio early.

This place has been set up as a courtroom. There is a trial seat at the top, a witness seat at the bottom, and a jury seat at the side. There are already seats for both the prosecution and the defense.

The outermost hearing seat is enough to accommodate sixty or seventy people to watch the trial at the same time.

Dozens of high-definition cameras were installed throughout the venue, so that customers and VIPs in the backstage studio could clearly see what was going on at the scene.

"The layout of the scene is quite decent. Is this the next stage?"

Thinking so, Zhang Wei looked at the time, and it was 10 o'clock.

As the employees of Jincheng Group left, the moot court personnel began to enter.

From the passages in all directions of the hall, dozens of people came in one after another.

Among them, Lin Yufeng, the director of the project department, was surrounded by everyone in the center.

"Young Master Lin, I wish you a successful start!"

"The first order of the new year is 30 million consultant fees, we can only look up!"

"The opponent is still a new lawyer in the Criminal Division. I think this battle is won before it is fought!"

After Lin Yufeng walked to the dock and sat down, he saw Zhang Wei.

"Hmph, overreaching!"

He snorted coldly, as if the words "I'm going to kill you" were engraved on his face.

"Master, come on~"

"Zhang Wei, come on!"

Fortunately, the friends from the criminal team also came and cheered him on at the hearing.

As people came one after another, there was a sense of congestion in the whole scene.

The project department, the litigation department, and some employees of the Jincheng Group, there were so many people who came this time, that the entire studio was almost overwhelmed.

While everyone was holding their breath, the moot court finally started.

The host is on stage.

"Hi everyone, I am the head of the media team of the Jincheng Group Operations Department. I believe that many colleagues present know me, so I won't waste time introducing myself. Let's leave the stage to the real protagonist of the trial... "

"Having said that, every participant in the trial is very important. Now I will introduce all the guests who participated in the trial to you!"

"First of all, it is an important member of the court, our honorable lord, and the candidate to serve as the judge in this moot court is the one we are familiar with. Judge, Judge Mihaimi!"

In the corner of the studio, a white-haired old man in a black robe slowly walked up to the court, and greeted everyone around with a smile.

"The retired judge of the High Court is a senior partner of Jincheng Law Firm. The law firm must have a lot of judicial resources!"

Seeing Judge Mi sitting on the trial bench, Zhang Wei had a higher opinion of the strength of the law firm.

"Next, it is naturally an indispensable part of the trial, and it is also the negotiator of the final verdict, our jury."

"By the way, this jury adopts the 12-member system of the criminal court. The large number of participants is to better understand the opinions of the jury, and the jurors come from all walks of life. I can guarantee that they will cooperate with this law firm. There is nothing to do with it, the background investigation is completely clean, and they have all served as jurors at least once, and have complete participation experience in judicial trials, I believe they can definitely make a fair and just verdict in the trial!"

All 12 jurors were also seated. As the host said, these 12 people were men, women, children and all walks of life.

It is not easy to invite 12 jurors in a short period of time. As for the details of the screening, Zhang Wei does not care.

As long as you ensure fairness, it doesn't matter whether you screen or not.

"In the end, the most important thing in this trial is naturally the two sides of the game in the trial. First of all, it is the lawyer for the plaintiff in this trial, lawyer Zhang Weizhang from the criminal team of Jincheng Law Firm!"

shhh

Following the host's introduction, there were many boos at the scene.

Even the cheers of Lin Yumeng and Li Yueqin in the corner were covered by the boos.

"Okay, okay, colleagues in Jincheng, save some face for the newcomer, it may be his first time in court, at least he has the courage to face the next opponent, let's not be too demanding of him!"

The host hurriedly rounded things up, but he himself didn't care much about Zhang Wei.

"The next step, I believe, is what everyone is looking forward to. Let us welcome the lawyer representing the defendant in this trial. He is also the well-known director of the project department of our Jincheng Law Firm, a junior partner of the law firm, and the most popular employee of the Jincheng Group. Representative, lawyer Lin Yufeng—"

After the host's introduction, there were countless cheers and applause from the audience.

"Come on, Young Master Lin!"

"Screw that kid!"

"Let newcomers see what a professional lawyer is!"

"Our project department is going to teach the litigation department a lesson, let's show the criminal team a little color!"

Shouts, cheers, one after another, for a long time...

"Good guy, those who didn't know thought this was not the trial site, but Lin Yufeng's concert!"

Zhang Wei shook his head, and he could only sit in his seat and complain.

Fortunately, after introducing both parties, the trial is finally about to begin.

"Okay, now let the prosecution and the defense take their seats, and present a wonderful court braid to the customers of Houtian Studio!"

After the host finished speaking, he smiled at Judge Mi in the trial seat: "My lord, I will leave the next trial to you. I will be in charge of asking the jury for opinions during the adjournment. Please worry about other things." !"

"Haha, leave it to me!"

Judge Mi nodded, and then tapped the cone to announce: "This moot court begins, let the plaintiff make an opening statement first!"

The audience was silent, and countless eyes swept towards the center.

Under everyone's gaze, Zhang Wei straightened his suit and walked to the jury seat.

"Hello, everyone. My name is Zhang Wei. I will act as the lawyer entrusted by the family of Feng Xinxue, the plaintiff, in this moot court. Everyone may be surprised. I will tell everyone who Feng Xinxue is!"

As he spoke, he took out the remote control of the projector from his pocket and pressed the button.

Groups of photos suddenly appeared on the projection screen arranged behind the witness stand.

In the photo, there is a little girl about 15-16 years old with a very sweet and bright smile.

"This is the deceased Feng Xinxue. Her family and friends like to call her 'Xiaoxue', a very nice little girl, as you have seen, her smile is very sweet, but unfortunately, her friends and family members will never see her smile again. arrive."

"Now, let us focus on the culprit who caused all this!"

As Zhang Wei said, he walked back to his place and took out a bottle of soda can from his briefcase.

"This is the culprit who killed Xiaoxue, the sports drink from Super Energy Drink Company. They call it 'Bull', which means that drinking this can of drink can make you as strong as a bull!"

"Of course, don't meet a bullfighter, that would be bad~"

"Hahaha……"

Zhang Wei's joke made many people in the jury laugh.

In the surrounding hearing seats, some people also laughed out loud.

But they were quickly warned by the eyes of the colleagues next to them, and their smiles immediately disappeared.

Zhang Wei walked to the jury seat and raised the can of drink in his hand.

"The next thing I said, please listen carefully, this small can of drink contains more than 200 mg of caffeine, while a cup of black coffee contains 80-180 mg of caffeine, and it also contains 500 mg of glucuronolactone , in previous wars, glucuronolactone was used as a neurostimulant.”

"Perhaps you often see it on supermarket shelves, and you have seen its advertisements on TV commercials. After listening to my previous explanation, you may wonder, what's the problem with such a small can of drink?"

"Since you asked, we might as well ask everyone to look at the advertisement of Super Drink Company and see how they promote this product!"

Zhang Wei pressed the button of the projector again, and a video began to play.

"Do you want a more exciting life, a more trendy lifestyle, and more energy to meet..."

At first glance, the advertisement is a big production, full of special effects, various explosions and special effects scenes, and even invited a well-known sports star from the Dragon Kingdom to endorse.

"What does this advertisement tell us? It tells us that the target audience of the product is an adventurous group. It may be children, students, or young people who have just stepped into society. This is the target group of Super Drink."

"Similarly, the victim in this case, Xiaoxue, is also one of the target groups. Because she drank this small can of drink, she died!"

"The cause of her death was caffeine poisoning. Please think about it, she is only 16 years old and her life has just begun!"

Zhang Wei said, looking at the dock.

"Although I don't know lawyer Lin Yufeng well, as the defendant's defense lawyer, I can guess what his routine is, because this kind of defense has a fixed rhetoric."

"He will attribute the cause of death to the deceased, the girl we saw on the screen, and he will stand up and accuse this flowery and beautiful girl, accusing her of making mistakes. As for what mistakes were made, anyway, the defense must If I can find the reason, I don't bother to guess, anyway, in the end he will blame this girl for the cause of death!"

Hearing Zhang Wei's statement, Lin Yufeng in the dock couldn't sit still any longer. He tore off the first page of his notebook and crumpled the paper to vent his anger.

"This guy, how does he know my tricks!"

Obviously, Zhang Wei guessed right.

But Zhang Wei's statement is not over yet.

"Then, he would also blame the family of the deceased, especially the parents of the deceased, who have always been the main targets of the defense lawyers. Although I don't know why the defense would justify the family of the victim in the death of a life, but I can Tell you his purpose."

"The reason why he did this is very simple, because it only needs to let the girl or one of the family members stand up and take the blame, so that you may ignore the real murderer in this case, which is the Super Drink Company behind the defendant!"

After Zhang Wei finished speaking, Lin Yufeng also tore off the handwriting on the second page.

His expression was a little angry, almost cursing.

"So, all jurors, I have only one request to you, and that is to trust your own eyes and not be fooled by the defendant's rhetoric."

"You don't really want to blame a deceased person, and you don't want to blame the family members of the deceased, that is, the victim in this case. I believe you will not do that!"

"Who is the real murderer in this case, it should be obvious to everyone, that is Super Drink Company. The product they launched killed Xiaoxue, and they should take responsibility for it!"

When Zhang Wei received this, his tone became more serious, and he raised his arms and shouted: "Please take a look at the facts. A girl as beautiful as a flower has withered. The loss of life is irreversible, but we can save more children. When the next Before the death, we can hit the super drink company head-on and cut off their claws on other people's children!"

"Otherwise, it's unimaginable, maybe your child is the next victim!"

"Your children, the children of your neighbors, and the children of your relatives are all waiting for you to save them!"

"This concludes my statement, thank you all!"

Zhang Wei bowed and thanked, then walked back to the plaintiff's seat.

In the dock, Lin Yufeng was silent, but his hands were clenched into fists, and his face was frighteningly dark.

He has never encountered such an opening!

This time, Zhang Wei is firing on all cylinders!
