Crazy, You Call This a Trainee Lawyer

Mrs. Zhou is now sitting on the witness stand.

The clothes are simple, the complexion is pale, and the spirit gives people a haggard feeling.

It was as if her husband had just died, but in fact her husband had been dead for more than 2 years.

So women are born actors, especially those who have been beaten by life.

"My husband died on the Oriental Star, leaving us orphans and widows to live together. The debt collectors drove us to nowhere. We had to go to an old house in the suburbs to hide from debts. Unexpectedly, they found us. In my house Paint was splashed on the door, and..."

Mrs. Zhou is crying now, complaining about her unwillingness to live.

Anyway, she only knows one thing, and it's right to sell miserably in court.

Her words did resonate with many people. Some people in the jury and hearing room nodded subconsciously, as if they could understand her suffering.

The sledgehammer of life has been beating them, beating poor people like Mrs. Zhou.

"So, I lost my husband, and the life of my son and I has changed drastically. It's all because of them, and it's all because of Zhang Tianlong, the good speaker!"

After crying, Mrs. Zhou finally missed the target and raised her finger to what she thought was the "culprit"!

Zhang Tianlong, who was sitting on the defense table, was also shocked, you are really...a good judge of people!

To be able to find out that I am the mastermind behind the scenes without being on the boat at all!

"Mrs. Zhou, why did you stand up and accuse Chairman Zhang?" Zhao Chunming interrupted hastily.

"Because they sent the invitation, and they sent it to my husband in the name of Chairman Zhang!"

Mrs. Zhou said with pain on her face: "Without this invitation, my husband would not have died. If he hadn't died, my son and I would not have had such a hard life. And if..."

"Okay, okay, I understand, Ms. Zhou, it's okay, it's okay..."

Hearing the other party complaining like "Tong Xiangyu", Lao Zhao hurriedly interrupted, lest the other party go on talking on his own and arouse the disgust of the jury.

Immediately afterwards, he continued to ask: "Ms. Zhou, is this invitation really sent in the name of Speaker Zhang?"

"Yes, not only my husband, but several other families also lost their husbands because of participating in the activities of the Oriental Star..."

After saying that, Mrs. Zhou looked at Zhang Wei who was sitting in the corner of the hearing booth.

Zhang Wei nodded slowly.

Mrs. Zhou understood, tears burst into her eyes.

"It's all because of you, and it's all because of Zhang Tianlong. Otherwise, my husband wouldn't go to sea, and he wouldn't die if he didn't go to sea. You killed my husband and made our family what it is now. You..."

It was another tearful accusation, and the entire court echoed with Mrs. Zhou's crying.

His words, demeanor, and even accusatory words made many people in the court look sideways and moved.

"Mrs. Zhou, don't get excited, don't get excited..."

Seeing this, Zhao Chunming had no choice but to comfort him, but to no avail.

"Witness, please pay attention to your emotions!"

In the end, it was Lao Chen who spoke. The majesty of the judge made him speak in a quiet voice, but he still managed to stop Mrs. Zhou.

The witness immediately stopped crying and kept silent.

"Well, the court understands what the witness said; the prosecution, do you have any questions?"

Seeing Lao Chen speak, Zhao Chunming shook his head.

There are not many clues that this woman can provide at present. She did not go to the Oriental Star, so she cannot ask about the ship.

Crying and selling misery is the only thing this witness can do.

"We're done asking questions."

Old Chen immediately looked at the defense.

Laura was whispering to Lin Xiangtian at the moment, and seeing the judge's signal, they immediately ended their private chat.

As a defense lawyer, Laura knew her duties and immediately got up and walked to the witness stand.

"Witness, you said that your husband died because of Chairman Zhang's invitation, is that true?"

"Yes, what else?"

"That's strange, shouldn't the person who killed your husband be a pirate?"

Laura's surprised question made many people react immediately.

"At the casino lobby on the Oriental Star, many people saw that your husband was killed by pirates, and there were many other people who were killed by pirates."

"As for Chairman Zhang, although he sent invitations to your husband in his own name, he was attacked by pirates during the voyage. No one could have predicted this."

"Your husband was killed by pirates. This itself is a random event with a small probability. It can only be said that your husband is unlucky, right?"

Although this sentence sounds strange, it is also true.

No one can predict that when you go out to sea on a cruise ship, you may encounter pirates.

This is like Schrödinger's cat. When you travel to sea, you may encounter pirates, wind and waves, or even attacks by marine animals.

But it's also possible that none of this will happen.

It's all about luck, it's a random event.

And to attribute random events to someone, to the person who invited you to the sea, is in itself unreasonable.

No one can be responsible for random events, small probability time does not count as cause and effect.

"In my opinion, Chairman Zhang's invitation to your husband to take a vacation on the Oriental Star is purely out of goodwill. As for the incident of encountering pirates, it is a random event in itself. It can only be said that everyone is unlucky."

"Mrs. Zhou, for example, if you take your son out, a thunder strikes from the sky and hits the tree, and the branch breaks and hits your son, and your son is injured, you will blame the sky and the bereaved A tree struck by lightning?"

Mrs. Zhou didn't say a word, obviously it can't be blamed, because everyone knows, don't stand under the tree in the thunder sky.

"Yes, Mrs. Zhou, you also know that it is your own responsibility to take your son out. Similarly, it is also your husband's choice to participate in the activities of the Oriental Star."

"As far as I know, your husband is a businessman himself, and businessmen always want to cling to the powerful. How could he refuse the invitation from Chairman Zhang? I believe that even if he knew that there might be pirates at sea, he would not refuse?"

Hearing Laura say this, although many people felt that these words were a bit cold-blooded, it seemed that the truth was the same.

Encountering pirates at sea is a random event in itself. To put it bluntly, it is bad luck.

It is unreasonable to blame others for your bad luck.

Many people in the court had such thoughts in their hearts.

"Sure enough, the method of selling miserables is no longer feasible!"

Seeing this scene, Zhang Wei, who was sitting in the hearing booth, had a slightly weird look in his eyes.

But then, he waved to a court guard not far away, who saw this and walked over slowly.

"Brother Tingwei, do me a favor, I have something to tell Lao Zhao, you tell him..."

After whispering, Tingwei walked to Zhao Chunming's side and whispered a few words in his ear.

Zhao Chunming looked weird, but then nodded subconsciously, as if he understood something.

In court, the witness, Mrs. Zhou, has lost her way.

After crying, she couldn't continue to sell miserably, because Laura's question made her lose the support of the jury and hearing seats.

Old Chen, who was sitting on the trial seat, finally had to speak:

"What the witness said is indeed a little unreasonable. The encounter with pirates at sea is itself..."

"Judge Chen, in view of this problem, we request to summon another emergency witness!"

Old Zhao stood up suddenly, looking directly at the court.

"Old Zhao, what's going on with you today? It's clear that you are no longer speaking, but you keep getting new witnesses over and over again?"

"Sorry, Judge Chen, but this witness can prove that the encounter with pirates was not a coincidence, and..."

As Zhao Chunming said, he gave Zhang Tianlong a meaningful look.

"And what?"

Sure enough, Lao Chen became interested and asked more questions.

Laura also frowned, looking at Zhang Tianlong, Lin Xiangtian and Wu Yuanzong

All of them felt the pressure. Is the prosecution going to use some tricks again?

"This witness was also on the Oriental Star at the time, and his confession will definitely tell everyone the truth!"

"Really, this witness is confirmed to be on board, so he should be a witness to the attack?"

"Yes, exactly!"

Seeing that Lao Zhao nodded affirmatively, Lao Chen thought about it and nodded in agreement.

Since it is such an important witness, you Lao Zhao had brought it out earlier, why wait until now.

"In view of the circumstances of this case, neither party in the prison trial could summon strong witnesses, so this court approves the prosecution's summoning of emergency witnesses this time."

After Lao Chen had spoken, Zhao Chunming naturally got up and announced:

"We summoned witness Zhang Wei to testify in court!"

As soon as this remark came out, everyone in the audience subconsciously looked towards the corner of the hearing booth.

Under the gaze of Xia Qianyue and Xiao Baihe, Zhang Wei stood up.

"Fuck, you actually testified in court!"

Xiao Baihe's eyes widened even more, obviously he did not expect that Zhang Wei would choose to appear in court.

But it's right to think about it, Zhang Wei was on the ship for a few days, and he was also a witness to all the incidents.

"Oh, it's this kid!"

Similarly, when Lao Chen saw Zhang Wei appearing in court, he suddenly realized.

That's right, they all forgot that Zhang Wei was also a participant.

However, he has diplomatic immunity. If he does not intend to appear in court, no one can compel him to summon the other party.

Therefore, Zhang Weineng's appearance in court was a relief to Lao Chen.

Because Zhang Wei is indeed a survivor of the attack on the Oriental Star, and many people know this.

Under the watchful eyes of the audience, under Zhang Tianlong's gloomy gaze, Zhang Wei walked up to the court and sat on the witness stand.

His appearance also made many people hold their breath, expecting him to start breaking the news.

"Hello, Witness."

"Hello, Old Zhao."

After Zhang Wei greeted, he looked at the trial seat.

"Hi, old Chen."

The corner of Lao Chen's mouth twitched slightly, I know you well, so you don't have to tell everyone.

"Hello, mother-in-law."

But Zhang Wei didn't finish, he also said something to Li Qinghua who was sitting in the corner.

The corner of the latter's mouth twitched slightly, and he secretly said, "Good guy."

"Hello, Chairman Zhang, Fatty Lin, and Second Master Wu?"

Zhang Wei then sent greetings to the three members of the defense table.

Now, the whole court knows that Zhang Wei and these people know each other.

"Ahem, Zhang Wei, you can call later to say hello, and now I want to ask you some questions."

"No problem, just ask."

Seeing Zhang Wei's correct attitude, Zhao Chunming immediately asked questions.

"You're a passenger on the Oriental Star, aren't you?"

"Yes, I have booked a VIP ticket, and there are 4 beautiful girls traveling with me."

As soon as this remark came out, many people in the court showed envious or even jealous expressions.

"Of course, this trip was not a pleasant one. In the end, I was shot in the stomach, and then I fell into the sea and suffered a near-death disaster. I believe that if it were me who did it again, I couldn't guarantee that I would be able to survive again." survive..."

Hearing this, those who were envious just now are not envious anymore, and all the envious people are gloating.

Tell you to be arrogant, tell you to be arrogant, retribution is coming.

Although the four girls were envied and hated by others, being shot and falling into the sea in the end was considered retribution, and they were all balanced in their hearts.

"Oh, I deeply sympathize with what happened to you as a witness, but what I and everyone want to know at this moment are some details of the Dongfang Star attack, such as things that Mrs. Zhou cannot prove, and you, as a direct participant , should be able to make it clear?"

"Well, I believe that I have to start somewhere, let's start from the last round of the Charity Gambling King Competition..."

Zhang Wei said, looking at Zhang Tianlong, the latter's face turned ugly.

"That game was really thrilling and exciting. In the end, I used 50 million chips to win nearly 900 million chips in Zhang Tianlong's hand. That game is definitely a textbook for the weak to defeat the strong!"

Zhang Tianlong's face turned darker, and a blue vein could be vaguely seen on his forehead.

This is really which pot is not opened and which pot is lifted!

"By the way, Chairman Zhang, Fatty Lin, you are the organizers of the conference. I won the chips and you haven't paid me yet!"

Zhang Wei said, and smiled at the two of them again.

"Ahem, witness, although I also heard that this event was held on the ship, we don't care about the money you won in the Charity Gambling King Competition. We want to know the details of the attack!"

"Oh, well, but this matter has to start from the fifth day. On that day, I noticed a few problems. After the Oriental Star docked at the port, some sailors on the ship left the ship. This incident itself It's weird..."

Zhang Wei narrated everything he had seen and heard since the fifth day, and of course some unnecessary and irrelevant details were hidden.

He saw the crew leave the ship and return, and the identities of these people may have been switched.

Then, he participated in the Charity Gambling King Competition and won Zhang Tianlong, but at the last moment, when the two might have to decide the winner, something happened suddenly!

Duanmu Heizu jumped out first, followed by the pirates disguised as crew members. They cooperated with Duanmu Heizu and prepared to kill Zhang Tianlong.

Unexpectedly, Bashaluo, the pirate leader, jumped back again, directly against Duanmu Heizu, and joined hands with Duanmu Heizu's two henchmen, Hu Yaode and Li Meijia, to kill Duanmu Heizu's master with a backhand.

At this point, the two levels are reversed.

Zhang Tianlong, who was threatened by others, became the boss of the ship. Even Bashaluo was bought by him. He took control of the whole ship and tried to blame Zhang Wei.

"At that time, the scene was naturally very critical. The people in the casino hall only saw Duanmu Heizu attacking, and then they were all controlled by the pirates and went to the banquet hall. The remaining people were either Zhang Tianlong's men, or he was trying to People who don't live, and I'm one of them."

"However, those pirates were actually Zhang Tianlong's people. They used Duanmu Heizu to kill people with a knife, trying to interfere with the facts. It was Zhang Tianlong who really ordered the pirates to commit crimes!"

As Zhang Wei said, he looked at Mrs. Zhou who was sitting on the witness stand.

"Mr. Zhou's death was not instigated by Duanmu Heizu, but by Zhang Tianlong, because at that moment, only Duanmu Heizu was kept in the dark, whether it was his follower Hu Yaode, his mistress Li Meijia, or Basha. Luo, none of them will listen to Duanmu Heizu!"

Because of this, when Duanmu Heizu finally tried to attack Zhang Tianlong, he finally found out that his subordinates and his partners had all betrayed him.

Although Duanmu Heizu is ruthless, he never expected to meet someone who is more ruthless and more scheming than him.

Zhang Wei's words also made many people in the court change their original views.

It sounds like this is really the case.

Zhang Wei saw it with his own eyes, and the facts he narrated were indeed vivid, and many details were impeccable.

Everyone can hear that this is as if it happened in real life, it is absolutely fabricated.

Because it is made up indiscriminately, it will definitely not have this effect.

"be opposed to!"

Seeing that many people in the court were attracted by Zhang Wei's story, Laura stood up and interrupted.

"Defense, could you please explain the reasons for your objection?"

"This is all the imagination of the witnesses!"

Laura hastily made up a reason.

"Judge Chen, I'm just stating what I've seen and heard. If it's all fiction, can I ask the defense to present evidence?"

"really!"

Seeing Zhang Wei's rebuttal, Old Chen nodded subconsciously.

"invalid objection!"

Laura also knew that her reasons were untenable. She did this only to interrupt the rhythm of Zhang Wei's statement and prevent the other party from interfering with the jury too much.

After such an interruption, Zhang Wei's statement ended.

Zhao Chunming took the opportunity to interject: "Zhang Wei, you said that Chairman Zhang signaled the pirates to kill Mr. Zhou and others. Is this true?"

"Of course, I saw it with my own eyes!"

"How can Chairman Zhang have the ability to drive pirates to help him work, and there is another point, why did he kill Mr. Zhou and others, did they offend Chairman Zhang?"

Many people are concerned about this issue.

The first is why Zhang Tianlong can drive the pirates, and the second is the most important, does Zhang Tianlong have any motives to kill Mr. Zhou?

"Pirates are a group of desperadoes. This group of people has a characteristic. They listen to whoever gives the most money. Compared with Duanmu Heizu, Zhang Tianlong gives more money, so they naturally listen to Zhang Tianlong! "

"As for the motive you mentioned, I also have it here. I know why Zhang Tianlong wanted to kill Mr. Zhou. In fact, he had to kill Mr. Zhou again!"

"Oh, what is it?" Zhao Chunming hurriedly asked, his expression excited.

"It's very simple. It's for profit. Killing Mr. Zhou and a few other people is all for Zhang Tianlong's money in his pocket!"

The reason why Zhang Tianlong killed these people boiled down to one word: money!

Do you think you would let someone try to take money out of your pocket?

Zhang Tianlong's answer was, don't even think about it!

Try it and die!
