Chapter 568 Court Trial (3)

567
Tang Xi'en pursed her lips and nodded, remained silent for a few seconds, then smiled again, and asked softly: "Before Carly (the victim) went out, she mentioned that she would meet with Fu's boss at night, and she was calling him 'Fu's' to you at that time." Boss' instead of the defendant's name?"

The witness nodded: "Yes."

Tang Xi'en: "That night, several high-level members of the Fu Corporation had a meeting at the hotel. How can you be sure that the 'Boss of the Fu Corporation' referred to by the victim is the defendant, not someone else in the top management of the Fu Corporation?"

The witness was dumbfounded for a while, and then said: "Everyone in Luocheng knows that Fu's boss is him." As he spoke, he pointed at Fu Zhengye.

Tang Xi'en smiled and looked at the jury: "Everyone knows that Fu's boss is the defendant?"

Most of the jury laughed and shook their heads.

Tang Xien kept smiling and continued to question the witness: "You said that Carly came back after being injured and told you that she was raped and beaten. Did she say who beat and raped her?"

The witness nodded: "Yes. She said it was the person who met her at night."

Tang Xi'en: "She told you clearly, how many people will she meet with at night?"

The witness shook his head: "No."

Tang Xi'en: "Did she tell you clearly the name of the person who met her at night?"

The witness shook his head again: "No."

Tang Xi'en stopped laughing, and his voice changed from the gentleness just now, to sharp and sharp: "In other words, you think that Carly was injured by the defendant, all because Carly mentioned to you before going out that she will talk to Fu's boss later. Meet? So you speculate on your own that the person who met Carly at night is the defendant, and the person who hurt Carly is also the defendant?"

The witness froze and said nothing.

Prosecutor: "No!"

The judge glanced at the prosecution: "over ruled (objection is invalid)." After speaking, he looked at the witness: "Witness, please answer."

The witness faltered for a moment: "... yes."

The jurors shook their heads.

Tang Xi'en turned to look at Fu Zhengye, and nodded to him.

Then, Tang Xien applied to call the second witness of the defense, that is, the victim Carly in this case.

Carly took the witness stand.

She looks very young and beautiful, a typical American beauty with blond hair and blue eyes, a woman that men will like.It's just that the person looks very weak, his face is bloodless, and his eyes are shrunk.She didn't dare to look at Fu Zhengye, and she didn't have the hatred and fear that ordinary victims look at the perpetrator, but instead felt a sense of guilt.

Tang Xi'en understood a little bit.

Prosecutor's routine questioning: "Witness, please introduce yourself."

The victim lowered his eyes and whispered, "I'm an intern at XX company."

Prosecutor: "How did you know the defendant?"

Victim: "That night, my colleagues and I were dining in the cafeteria. While we were waiting for freshly ground coffee, we met the defendant. The defendant seemed very interested in me and asked me where I worked. He said he wanted to work in Fuzhou after my internship was over. The group arranged a position for me."

Prosecutor: "Please continue."

Victim: "Later, we exchanged phone calls. After dinner, I went back to my residence. The defendant called me and said he wanted to talk about work and invited me to his room. After I went, he wanted to talk to me. I didn't want to, he took off my clothes forcefully, I resisted, and then he hit my body hard..."

The victim wept while talking, crying very sadly.The prosecution took advantage of the situation to release photos of the victim's injuries.

Tang Xien glanced at the jury.The female juror also blushed and shed tears, while the male juror shook his head regretfully.

Prosecutor: "Your Honor, I have no further questions."

Tang Xi'en took a deep breath, stood up, and walked to the witness stand.

She comforted the victim: "I'm sorry, Carly, for reminding you of such a sad thing."

The victim shook his head: "It's okay."

Tang Xi'en comforted with a gentle tone: "I sympathize with what happened to you. I don't want to remind you of your sad past, but this is my job. I have to ask you a few more questions. Please persevere, please?"

The victim wiped her tears with a tissue and nodded: "I'm fine."

Tang Xi'en smiled: "What floor did you live on the night of the incident?"

Victim: "I live on the 6th floor."

Tang Xien: "You said you went to the defendant's room, do you have the key?"

The victim shook his head: "No, I entered by knocking on the door."

Tang Xien: "Did anyone else see you when you entered the elevator?"

The victim didn't even think about it: "No."

Tang Xien: "Are you sure?"

The victim nodded: "Sure. I don't want anyone to see, so I wait until no one gets into the elevator."

Tang Xi'en repeated: "Because you don't want to be seen, you wait until there is no one in the elevator before going in?"

The victim nodded: "Yes."

Tang Xien: "Did anyone come in the elevator during the period?"

The victim affirmed: "No."

Tang Xi'en: "May I ask how you obtained the elevator access card for the floor where the defendant lives?"

The victim froze for a moment, apparently not knowing what she meant.

Tang Xien repeated, this time louder than before: "How did you get the elevator access card for the floor where the defendant lived?"

The victim looked puzzled: "There is no access card, I just pressed the button on the 12th floor and went up."

Tang Xi'en: "Are you sure you just pressed the button on the 12th floor, no other operations, and no one else in the elevator?"

The victim: "I'm sure." Her eyes were still flinching.

At this time, Fu Zhengye, who was sitting next to Tang Xien, suddenly smiled.

Tang Xien picked up the remote control on the table, and a short promotional video of the hotel appeared on the electronic screen.The short video clearly shows that this hotel puts the privacy of high-end business residents first. Business suites on the 10th floor and above require a special access card to go upstairs, and each room only has one access card. Card.

Tang Xien explained to the judge and jury: "That is to say, on the night of the incident, if the victim wanted to go from the 6th floor to the defendant's room on the 12th floor, she must have this access card, otherwise, she would not be able to reach the defendant's floor. Not to mention the room. Since each room is only equipped with one access card, the defendant is already in the room, and his access card cannot be given to the victim. The victim’s testimony just now also confirms that she did not do anything To operate, just press the button on the 12th floor!"

Sitting on the witness stand, the victim was shocked: "Maybe... maybe I went up to the 12th floor with others!"

Tang Xien smiled: "Really? But I clearly checked with you twice just now, whether there were other people when you entered the elevator, and whether you did other operations. You said no, because you don't want others to see, so you specially Wait until there is no one to go up. After entering the elevator, you just press the case on the 12th floor, and there is no other operation. So, you want to change the testimony now, right?"

The judge frowned and looked at the witness: "Witness, please answer."

The victim was at a loss, and then covered his face and cried.

There was an uproar at the scene, and there was a lot of discussion and confusion. The judge sounded the gavel and announced a temporary adjournment.

　Fu Zhengye's case will end after the next chapter.

　　Today, my health is better, and I persisted for three shifts.

　　see you tomorrow!
