S City Supreme People's Court, Criminal Court No. 1.
After nearly twenty days of criminal investigation, the criminal case named "2013 Murder Case" was finally heard in public. 2013 refers to the year the case occurred, and murder is the characterization of this criminal case. Just from the name of the case
You can predict the outcome of this trial above.
A lot of media gathered outside the court, all waiting to get first-hand information on the outcome of the trial. The court was also full of observers. What surprised An Zhisu was that Mrs. Ye also came to observe, but thinking of Ye Lishu
After all, it is understandable that she grew up in front of Mrs. Ye since she was a child. She is like half a daughter.
An Zhisu was a little panicked when he saw the old lady Ye. She was a little afraid of the old lady, so she huddled behind Ye Lancheng and spoke a few words to him in a low voice.
Ye Lancheng nodded and raised his hand to call Lao Jiu over. Lao Jiu came over and listened to Ye Lancheng's instructions. After Ye Lancheng finished his instructions, he went out immediately.
He Siyi came late. She came alone. Lao Jiu had been waiting for her. Seeing that there was no one following her, he smiled and said hello: "Miss He."
He Siyi hummed lightly.
Lao Jiu opened the door for her and asked casually: "Did Miss He come alone?"
He Siyi glanced at him, and then hummed lightly.
Lao Jiu was slightly relieved and made a gesture of invitation.
He was ordered to intercept Cheng Haoran here to prevent him from being recognized by Mrs. Ye as soon as he entered. Fortunately, Cheng Haoran also knew that it was inconvenient to come and did not follow him.
After He Siyi entered, she saw An Zhisu waving to her. She hesitated for a moment before walking over. An Zhisu was relieved to see that she was the only one coming in.
"Sit here, Siyi." An Zhisu patted the empty seat next to her. She deliberately left a seat for her. She was afraid that she would be too lonely alone. In addition, she also wanted to watch An Tingnuan and Ding Qi being sentenced with her own eyes.
He Siyi sat down between her and Song Jiaren. Song Jiaren looked at her with a smile: "Long time no see, Siyi."
He Siyi smiled awkwardly: "Lawyer Song."
"You won't suffer if you call me sister." Song Jia joked with her.
He Siyi was grateful to Song Jiaren for being tolerant to her, and shouted with a smile: "Sister Jiaren."
Song Jiaren smiled and nodded: "What is in the past is in the past, and everything will be fine in the future."
He Siyi nodded solemnly.
They were all sitting together. Old Mrs. Ye was sitting on the other side, and she was a little different from them. Ye Qing would throw her knife at Song Jiaren from time to time. Song Jiaren didn't care and deliberately held Xia Jingze's hand.
Ye Qing's eyes almost popped out of her head when she was angry with her.
In addition to the unexpected person, Mrs. Ye, who came to listen today, there was another person who surprised An Zhisu, and that was Xiao Rui. Seeing Xiao Rui sitting in the auditorium, An Zhisu couldn't guess what he was doing.
Well, are you saying goodbye to your ex-fiancée?
Anyway, she had no interest in him, even a little disgusted with him. An Zhisu's eyes only glanced at his face, and finally saw a strange face. An Zhisu had never seen it before, and he was definitely not their friend.
I don’t know if he is a friend of An Tingnuan or Ding Qi.
"It's Zuo Ang." Ye Lancheng's voice rang in her ears.
An Zhisu's eyes stopped just as he was about to pass over Zuo Ang's face.
Zuo Ang, that's Xia Ning's predecessor.
An Zhisu couldn't help but take a second look. He was not bad in appearance, but still far behind Su Ye. Su Ye was born into a wealthy family and was born with a sense of nobility and elegance. And this one
Zuo Ang, his temperament has changed a lot.
"I don't like him." An Zhisu only looked at him twice and then withdrew his gaze.
"Besides me, who else do you want to like?" Ye Lancheng glanced sideways at her.
An Zhisu chuckled: "I don't like you either."
Ye Lancheng's face darkened.
"I love you, Ah Cheng." An Zhisu's words pleased Ye Lancheng, and Ye Lancheng's dark face even turned slightly red. His little wife really didn't know how to be shy at all, regardless of the occasion.
Time teased him.
Su Ye also knew that Zuo Ang was coming, but he didn't pay attention and didn't even glance at him from the corner of his eye. It seemed that to him, Zuo Ang was just a passerby.
On the other hand, Song Jia and Xia Jingze murmured and complained. She also felt that Zuo Ang and Su Ye were too far apart. She and Su Qingchen coincided with each other and felt that Xia Ning was lame back then. How could he give up on Su Ye?
Choosing Zuo Ang is not scientific at all.
Xia Jingze felt the same way and complained with his girlfriend about how his own sister almost had cataracts back then.
Fortunately, Xia Ning was not here, otherwise she would have jumped up in anger and hit them. Which girl has never been blind? There is nothing to complain about.
At this time, Xia Ning didn't know who was in the court. She was carefully sorting out the information that would be used in court. Her assistant was helping. The information had been prepared long ago, and now she was just checking it again.
"Sister Xia, are you nervous?" After the examination, the assistant asked Xia Ning.
Although Xia Ning has been a prosecutor for some time, this is the first time she has gone to court independently. There is no old man to take her. Once any emergency situation arises in the court, she needs to adapt to the situation on her own, which is still stressful.
"It's okay." Xia Ning was not as nervous as her assistant imagined.
The assistant gave her a thumbs up in admiration.
Xia Ning smiled and waited for a while before someone came to notify them that the court was in session.
When the trial began, the whispers in the auditorium spontaneously stopped, and Ding Qi was brought to court as the first criminal suspect to be tried.
His defense lawyer is still Cheng Ming, but his main task today is not to defend Ding Qi. There is no need to defend Ding Qi's crime. It is either the death penalty or life imprisonment. He can't change anything.
His main task was to fight for a reduced sentence for An Tingnuan, so when Ding Qi was tried, he only defended normally and did not use any force. He reserved all his strength to defend An Tingnuan.
Xia Ning, on behalf of the procuratorate, accused Ding Qi of many crimes, including murder, kidnapping, assisting Yang Xi in escaping from prison, and a series of other crimes. There was evidence to support each of these crimes, and Cheng Ming was indefensible for every crime.
Ding Qi himself gave up his struggle and pleaded guilty in court to all the crimes Xia Ning accused him of. He did not make any self-defense and had absolutely no desire to survive.
Ding Qi's trial went surprisingly smoothly, even better than expected.
Xia Ning's performance was also surprisingly brilliant, even better than expected. Evidence was thrown out one by one, leaving Cheng Ming speechless. For the first time in court, the defendant's lawyer was suppressed and beaten by the prosecutor.
.
After Ding Qi was taken away, it was Ye Lishu's turn. Ye Lishu had her hair cut close to her ears and her face was bare. She looked more than ten years older and had lost her former charm, which was disappointing.
Ye Lishu admitted that she was the mastermind, and Xia Ning accused her of instigating, assisting others to commit crimes, and blaming others for crimes. Ye Lishu, like Ding Qi, pleaded guilty to all charges for the sake of An Tingnuan.
