Chapter 564
563
Late at night, Tang Xi'en and several lawyers were still discussing the case in the conference room.

Fu Shiyu had been away from his seat for a long time. Ever since he saw the report from the forensics department, he stood alone by the French window of the meeting room, with his arms folded, watching the night view of Los Angeles outside the window motionlessly.

Tang Xi'en was a little worried about him. After finishing his work, he stood up, stretched his limbs, and walked towards him.

She stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows with him, and followed his gaze to see the scenery he saw.

There are not many high-rise buildings in Los Angeles, only a dozen high-rise buildings in the city center.The bright city lights and blazing traffic make the city look like a galaxy hanging upside down on the earth.

"What are you thinking about?" She turned to look at him and asked gently, "Tell me about it?"

He came back to his senses and smiled at her: "I'm thinking what I can do to help."

"Can you go to the company tomorrow to have a look? You are needed over there. Just me here."

It was rare for him to have no objection, and he replied "yes".

Later when they returned to the hotel, Fu Shiyu did not mention Fu Zhengye's case the whole time. When the case was still unclear, Tang Xi'en did not choose to bring it up. At this time, no matter what he said, it seemed powerless.
.
The next day, Fu Shiyu sent Tang Xi'en to the law firm, leaving trusted people there to assist her, while he returned to Fu's overseas headquarters in Los Angeles.

As soon as they left, Tang Xi'en and the lawyers immediately started discussing the case.

The original evidence is not good for Fu Zhengye, it is really too bad!
After he was arrested, the police found TT with his own body fluids in the hotel room where he lived on the night of the incident, the victim's hair was extracted from the sofa, and the human cortex in his nails also proved to contain the victim's DNA.

The second witness in this case also confirmed that the victim received a call from Fu Zhengye at about ten o'clock that night, went to Fu Zhengye's room immediately, and returned to his room at three o'clock in the morning. When he took off his clothes, his body was covered with injuries.

The prosecution believes that Fu Zhengye used violent means to coerce the victim to have sex with him, so he extracted the victim's DNA from his nails, as well as the victim's hair on the sofa in the room, and TT speculated that it contained his body fluids. It was used when he had a relationship with the victim.

Now because the victim is still in a coma, once the victim wakes up and testifies against Fu Zhengye in front of the jury and the judge, the case will be closed.

Tang Xi'en stood in front of the soft board, folded his arms, and frowned at the photo pinned on it.

The victim's chest and abdomen were all bruised and swollen. The forensic doctor believed that it was violently hammered, resulting in broken ribs and internal bleeding.All the scars appeared in places that could be covered by clothes, so when the victim returned to the room, no one noticed her abnormality.

Tang Xi'en turned around and sat down, continuing to look through the case files over and over again.

After exchanging information, in the face of ironclad evidence, the partners of the law firm probably felt that the case was hanging and the chances of winning were not high, so they sent two more lawyers who are good at criminal cases to participate.

"This hotel is really strange, but the elevator and the floor where Mr. Fu lives are not monitored."

"So what if there is surveillance? Should the prosecution show the video of the victim entering and exiting Mr. Fu's room for the jury and the judge?"

These words fell into Tang Xi'en's ears, her hand that was writing and drawing on the paper stopped, and as soon as she retracted the pen in her hand, the swivel chair under her turned half a circle, her eyes stared at the photos on the soft board, and she fell into thinking again .

"Not being monitored is not necessarily a bad thing..." she muttered to herself.

The other lawyers listened and asked, "Teng, what do you think?"

Tang Xi'en turned around, and from a pile of evidence, he selected the ones that were the most unfavorable to Fu Zhengye, and presented them one by one.

The other lawyers gathered around.

She looked at the pieces of evidence, pondered, and pointed to the identification report with Fu Zhengye's bodily fluids on the far left: "It's true that the substance in TT is the defendant's, but is there such a possibility that it is actually the defendant and someone else, not the victim?"

Her voice was not loud, firstly because she was tired, and secondly because she was not sure, so she seemed to be talking to herself.

The other lawyers all laughed. In the face of so much evidence, everyone actually suspected that Fu Zhengye had indeed committed the crime. Now hearing what Tang Xien said, they all felt that it was unrealistic for her to want to exonerate her father-in-law too much.

Pointing to the second report, the chief lawyer asked, "Then how do you explain the dander from the victim under Mr. Fu's fingernails?"

Tang Xi'en didn't answer for a while, thinking.She then went to another report and pulled out the photos in it.The woman's long golden hair stood out against the back of the black sofa.

She thought of Fu Zhengye's appearance of always leaning on the sofa generously, and boldly speculated: "Is it possible that the victim's hair first stuck to the defendant's coat, and then the defendant sat on the sofa after returning to the room, because of the electrostatic reaction in winter, and Make the victim's hair stick to the couch?"

Everyone thought her idea was crazy, but they were too embarrassed to say it.

Only the chief lawyer here dared to question Tang Xien directly because of his status and authority.He smiled politely and asked, "Teng, you haven't answered my last question yet."

"The victim's dander?" Tang Xi'en said, "It's the same as the hair. Is it possible that the two of you had contact before, so it was left in Mr. Fu's nails beforehand?"

The chief lawyer was a little helpless, and persuaded: "Teng, I understand your eagerness to save your family, but if you make such far-fetched speculations, the jury and the judge will be disgusted by then."

Tang Xi'en smiled: "No matter what kind of possibility it is, we can't let it go, right? If even we give up, what about the innocent defendant?"

She went to get the windbreaker and put it on, and tidied up the personal belongings on the table: "I want to go to the hotel where the crime happened and come back later."

As Fu Shiyu had explained before, a younger male lawyer also packed his things: "Teng, I'll go with you."

The two of them took the person arranged by Fu Shiyu to the hotel where the crime happened.Tang Xien wanted to go to the scene of the crime again to see if there were any doubts.

The car was stuck on the streets of Los Angeles, Fu Shiyu's people were driving, another lawyer was sitting in the passenger seat, and Tang Xi'en was sitting in the back row, staring at the street scene in a daze.

Everyone believed that Fu Zhengye had committed the crime, and even Fu Shiyu, who was his own son, silently accepted this "fact". But Tang Xi'en, who had seen the evidence, vaguely felt that the case seemed to have sufficient evidence, but in reality, after thinking deeply, there were many doubts .

Whether she is the second lawyer in this case, a fair and just legal person, or Fu Zhengye's family members, before the trial results come out, she will choose to believe her client. There is no other reason, she will do The main thing is to do everything possible to get rid of the crime for his client.

 There is one more.
