Chapter 418 Remand
After Beiyuan finished speaking, the voice of this world seemed to disappear.The court fell into an unprecedented silence.The photo of the search record in the hands of the defense lawyer proved irrefutably that the size of the business suit obtained by the prosecutor's office did not match the height of Mori himself.It's just such a seemingly extremely simple fact that broke through the strict chain of evidence established by the public prosecutor in an instant.

If Morimoto bought the suit for himself, why would he buy a suit that obviously does not match his height and size?
Yan Yong, who was sitting on the prosecution seat, was also stunned for a moment.It never occurred to him that in his career as a public prosecutor, there would be such a day.I... I didn't even see the flaw in this proof.At the beginning, when I raided Morimoto's office in Asai Kiko Machine Tool Co., Ltd. and found these items, together with the sales receipts from shopping, I took it for granted that these evidences were evidence that Morimoto used public funds for personal consumption and pleasure.

I really didn't expect that such a mistake would happen in the end.

The evidence presented to the court not only did not confirm Morimoto's crime, but also became the key to exonerating his crime.If only the sales bills were submitted at the beginning, and the search transcripts were not submitted together, there would not be so many things!

The university students in the auditorium were also completely stunned.They never imagined that Morimoto's defense lawyer could dig the evidence to such an extent.It turned out that just one detail completely reversed the downward trend faced by the defendant before.The so-called "slick tongue is like a spring", is nothing more than that.At this time, some high-level people familiar with the Faculty of Engineering began to rack their brains to recall which professor in the Faculty was close to 1 meters tall.

Niwa, who was also sitting in the auditorium, couldn't help but burst out laughing softly.The lawyer named Bei Yuan in the court always brings the most exciting power in the most desperate moments.

For some reason, Niwa felt very happy.

Very happy.

It seems that if you want to stand with that lawyer, you have the courage to laugh and curse, and face the evil in this world with a cold face.

Suddenly, Niwa seemed to have the feeling of sitting in the court of the Kawamoto Expressway case.Speaking of which, the Kawamoto Expressway case was almost a year ago.Time really flies by.

Niwa looked at the figure in the gray suit in the court, and was stunned for a moment.Sitting with reporters for many years, being constantly suppressed, retaliated, and endured, the accumulated depression seems to be vented by this lawyer named Bei Yuan at this moment.

Judge Sakuma's face has become ugly.Although it was the prosecutor's office that was questioned, there is no doubt that, as the public prosecution agency exercising prosecutorial powers, such mistakes in court, in turn, have damaged the authority and credibility of the judiciary.

"Defendant Morimoto, the collegial panel is now asking you a question. Who bought the suit found in your office?" Judge Sakuma said.

"Chief referee, I admit that my behavior was corruption..." Morimoto replied immediately.

"I know! Now the court is asking you, who did you buy your suit for! You must answer the court truthfully!!" Judge Sakuma showed a bit of anger on his face. It was like thunder from the sky, making people have to kneel under this supreme judicial authority.

Morimoto trembled slightly, then looked at the defense seat, and after getting confirmation from the male lawyer's eyes, he said, "I don't know their names. It's what I told the court in the questioning session just now. Those The person who taught me how to operate my finances over the phone was the suit they asked me to buy. It was President Yoshida, and the people recommended to me by Professor Ogawara. I think President Yoshida and the others should know who they are.”

The defendant's voice echoed in the courtroom.

Listening to this answer, the senior officials of the university felt that things were very bad.Now, the fire is really going to reach the school.Originally, they thought it was a case of pleading guilty and accepting punishment. Who would have thought that such a disturbance would arise.

Judge Sakuma then looked at the prosecution bench again.The expression was already very displeased, as if he was blaming the prosecution for not carefully examining the evidence, and there were still such omissions.

Bei Yuan returned to the defense seat, sat in a chair, with a mysterious smile on his face.He didn't take advantage of the victory to pursue it, because he knew that at this time, silence is better than sound.Sometimes, there is no need to say everything, and it will be more flavorful to leave some points.Once the physical evidence that Morimoto’s research funds were used for consumption and pleasure is overturned, then the first corruption fact has a great possibility to be shaken.

Defense today.

It is not only to exonerate Morimoto, but also to give the university a warning.

It is impossible to put all the blame on Morimoto.

I really want to see, who is the big fish behind the industry-research joint venture?

Bei Yuan leaned on the back of the chair, his sitting posture was rather casual.

Yan Yong looked at Bei Yuan's sloppy look, and his inner anger couldn't be more.However...however, there is no way to erupt.

Prosecutor Chikako next to her turned pale.The reason why her complexion was ugly was because she was the one who proposed to submit these business suits to the court as embezzlement evidence.Because she feels that these personalized clothing can further prove Morimoto's subjective intention of corruption.

"I'm sorry, Prosecutor Iwanaga." Chikako said with a trembling voice.

Yan Yong sullenly said, "Victory or defeat is a common matter in military affairs. Don't care about the gains and losses of a city and a pool. As long as we fight steadily and step by step, we will not lose. If the other party wants to get rid of the crime completely, it is a fantasy, a fool's dream!"

At this moment, one of the two bailiffs who had been standing next to the defendant Morimoto stood up with a look of embarrassment on his face and interrupted the trial, "Judge... Chief referee, isn't the time a little too late?" late."

The bailiff pointed to the clock on the wall.

The court has been open until 8:10 in the evening.Everyone present didn't have dinner, and they couldn't help but immerse themselves in the extremely intense court trial.

"Chief referee. The remand time in the Kyoto Detention Center is before 9 o'clock. We must take the suspect back," said the bailiff.

Judge Sakuma nodded slightly, then raised his gavel and announced: "The first trial of Morimoto's corruption case is over, and the defendant is remanded to the detention center!"

"Crack!"

The gavel sounded.

The first trial is over.

Unlike the usual scene where the tension is released when the gavel is struck, the courtroom is still filled with extremely tense emotions.The university executives present all frowned, some whispered on the phone, not knowing what they were reporting, and some kept pressing the keypad of the mobile phone, sending information to an unknown person.

Today's trial sent an extremely bad signal to the school people present:

A storm is coming.
