    Chapter 69 The George Manson Case (4)

    It was not until Guan Wenji was taken out of the courtroom and the witness box was vacated again that Bud was shocked back to God at the sound of the judge's gavel.

    The most favorable thing, the thing that would make the jury obediently side with him, was thus marked with suspicion. 42 hours of sleepless nights, if you go deeper, you will not only be in a simple state of being awake, how can you keep the suspect's eyes open when he is sleepy? How to stimulate him to continue talking when he is too tired? How to break down his psychological defense, and how to break his willpower?

    If there is a strong tongue and wisdom, it can even turn the 42 hours in the direction of extorting confessions by torture.

    But the intern didn't, he just stopped at that boundary point as if he were having a friendly discussion.

    Bud looked at the defense table for a long time. To be honest, if he was the opposing lawyer, he would definitely make use of the topic, and he would not finish the 42 hours unless he squeezed out the value of those 42 hours. If you want to win the case, you must seize every opportunity to reverse and crucify the opponent.

    Being able to nail once is once, after all, the winner in this industry is king.

    This is the experience he has summed up after ten years of lawsuits... Of course, this can't be called experience, it's probably common sense in the eyes of most people.

    In a trance, he unconsciously glanced down at the court, only to meet Brewer Manson's eagle-like gaze, and immediately withdrew his gaze hurriedly. on the case.

    Soon, a new witness was on the witness stand, and Budd had already stood up at the prompt of the judge and began to question him.

    There were still people talking softly in the courtroom. Gu Yan didn't have to look back. He could tell that it was from Brewer Manson's subordinates and assistants. The words that could be vaguely captured were exactly the same as lawyer Bard's doubts. Brewer Manson himself didn't respond and seemed remarkably silent.

    For those doubts, Bud will ask now, but after ten years of experience with more cases, he probably won't ask again.

    In this court, Gu Yan is the only one who can fully understand Yan Suizhi's actions, maybe the older judge.

    Yan Suizhi said a long time ago that the members of the jury are not fools, they are people selected from all walks of life, representing all kinds of different groups of people, with different collisions of ideas. But in any case, one thing is certain, they must be people who have a certain sense of judgment and are considered to be impartial.

    They don't need to preach, they don't need to force their minds, and even to a certain extent, these people are a little arrogant. Not everyone is eligible to sit on the jury to decide the freedom and life and death of a certain person, so they must be proud.

    Proud people are not easy to be filled with thoughts, they will resist, reject, and even have a rebellious mentality.

    So it's good to stop at the end, and the jury can also think of the extended meaning that Bud can think of.

    What they think of themselves is always better than what others put them on.

    Besides that, maybe there is another point...

    That may not even be understood by the judges...

    Yan Suizhi was looking at the prosecution seat, listening to Bud's questioning of the witnesses, while out of the corner of the eye, Gu Yan seemed to be looking at him.

    "See what I'm doing?" Yan Suizhi suddenly asked softly.

    Gu Yan: "..."

    Some people have been in court for years and are really unruly.

    Others are all sitting upright, either carefully taking the time to read the case materials, or listening to the other's lawyers or witnesses. He can still interact with people from time to time, and he can't find it with a lantern.

    Which intern dares to be such a jerk?

    Yan Suizhi felt that Gu Yan was silent for a moment, then looked away and ignored him again.

    "???"

    Standing on the witness stand at the moment was security officer Oster Dayne outside George Manson's bedroom.

    Bud's inquiries have been carried out for the most part, "Did my client, Mr. George Manson, turn off the lights in the living room and other rooms before entering the bathroom that night?"

    Dai En nodded: "Yes, the whole outside is dark. When it is necessary for Mr. Manson to have any needs, we can hear that the door of the room has a small seam, but the lights on the corridor are very dark, so there is still no effect on it inside. , Very dark. "

    Bad said: "Until Mr. George Manson had an accident, you didn't hear any suspicious movements?"

    Dai En: "Of course, it is difficult to hear the small movement, but if someone encounters something in the room, we can definitely find it, but it is a pity, no. This itself is enough to explain some problems. After all, Manson Mr.'s room ... oh, something is a bit more. "

    Bud drums inspiring: "What is a bit more refers to something?"

    "Mr. Manson's room is like this. There are long plush carpets between the window sill and the bed, but there is no carpet on the bed to the bathroom. There are many things scattered here. ? "

    Dai En felt out of heself, but after all, the people in the Mansen family were still there, and he had to restrain his tone.

    Bud should take a few photos on the holographic screen with his words. "After the incident, Mr. Manson was found to have an accident, and the scene of the room light was turned on."

    The entire court, together with the jurisdiction of the face, appeared for a second expression gap.

    I have to say that the disturbing messy appears on the huge screen, and the shock is unique.

    The corner of Broson's mouth moved, showing a mixed disdain, disgusting and helpless meaning, but quickly collected it back. And the assistant next to him has only one sigh- "Oh-"

    Then rubbed his eyes.

    The most important information that Danne provided here is this, so Bud quickly completed the inquiry, and at the same time, he also gave the jury to know these.

    Judge Luther said: "Mr. Ruan Ye?"

    Yan Sui was not in a hurry, and said, "I don't want to ask."

    Bad: "..."

    I do n’t know why, now the intern is talking, no matter what, Bad is resentful.

    So he was resentful and invited to the next witness -Zhao Zimu.

    When Zhao Jimu Station was on the certificate, Gu Yan looked at the seat behind him. Among the people who came to listen this time, the Manson family had the most, and Zhao Zimu had the least. There was no one.

    There were rumors that the Zhao family had originally reached the big tree of the Mansen family, but in the past two years, there was a problem, and the big tree was unstable. Some people speculate that because Zhao Xuanmu had a better relationship with George Manson, Bruch Manson was not very happy.

    The entanglement between this successor is true and false.

    However, in the court, can see a hint of clues. When Zhao Ximu entered the court, Bruch Manson had been on the photo of the holographic screen. Move your eyes slowly.

    It seemed to be eye -catching to Zhao Ximu.

    The reason why Zhao Zhemu stood on the witness Xi is also very simple, because he had seen Chen Zhang's hand beside the window sill in the scope of Chen Zhang's crime time.

    "Is it so grabbing the water pipe beside the wall?" Bad demonstrated a grasping action.

    Zhao Jimu shook his head and changed his direction, "Grasp this way."

    "How long have you grabbed?"

    "A few seconds, four or five seconds."

    "Are you sure that the hand of the defense party?" Bad asked.

    Zhao Ximu said calmly: "Because the finger with a ring -shaped smart machine is on the ring, there is a round cross -section on the ring, and there are two very conspicuous horizontal lines on the cross section. Police investigations confirmed that no one's smart machine was like that in the villa. "

    Bud released the photo outside the window of the villa. As far as the structure is concerned, if Chen Zhang wants to lower the sound from the second floor to the first floor, and try to low the sound as much as possible, you really need to grab the water pipe to slow down.

    The hand happened to appear within the possible time of Chen Zhang.

    Bud quickly asked the question and asked the right to hand in the hands of Yan Sui.

    "Mr. Zhao." Yan Suizhi greeted him.

    Zhao Zhemu had a moment of stun, maybe he knew who defended Chen Zhang before, but he really saw it a little bit in court, but he quickly put away his expression, "Hello."

    "Do you see the hand of my party Chen Zhang at the window?"

    "I have said it just now, yes."

    "How much did you show out?" Yan Suizhi asked.

    Zhao Jimu stunned and compared with his own hand. Half of his arms looked like, "So many, because it is so around and holding the pillars, you can see some sleeves and wrists."

    Yan Sui nodded, "I have heard a word before, I don't know if I remember wrong. Mr. Zhao, do you have night blindness?"

    "Yes." Zhao Xuanmu thought about it, and even laughed at himself, "This is even a medical appraisal."

    At that time, everyone in the villa was required to make this identification.

    "Night blind ..." Yan Suizhi repeated it, and asked, "How did you see the scene outside the window?"

    Zhao Zimu responded in a hurry: "At that time, my room was still on the light, and the light was enough to make me see things near the window. The water pipe happened to be within the range."

    "See clearly?"

    "Yes, very clear."

    "Do you have any physical discomfort on your wrist that day, such as dizziness?" Yan Sui said, "If I remember correctly, you basically cultivate in the bedroom for two days."

    Zhao Zimu shook his head, "No, there was no physiological discomfort at that time. I couldn't go out in the bedroom. I was a little scared after diving.

    Yan Sui asked, "Do you have a drink that night?" Do you have a drink at the time? "

    "Do you mean when you see your hand?" Zhao Xuanmu shook his head, "No, I didn't touch a drop of wine before going downstairs to participate in the party. In fact, I did not drink after going downstairs. ","

    "So you are very sober all night, without any symptoms of discomfort such as dizziness affect what you see?"

    "right."

    Zhao Zimu said very firmly.

    Yan Sui nodded, and then nodded the video he had just used just now.

    It was a video shot by Laura at that time. At that time, Gu Yan and Yan Suizhi had already reached the return of the journey. At that time, Gu Yan also watched Yan Suizhi when he received the video. Laura recorded the video at the time, and had never opened it anymore. Originally planned to wait for the party to end to everyone, but it encountered Manson's accident that night. This video was directly included by the police. I haven't seen others anymore. It is not until now as auxiliary evidence information on the court.

    Yan Suizhi directly pulled the progress bar to a point in the second half of the paragraph. In the video, Zhao Xuanmu was just deceived by Ge Yan from the upstairs, followed by Chen Zhang, and after the two arrived at the hall, they found a corner and dropped a corner. sit down.

    Chen Zhang was quickly pulled by another group of people to talk about diving. He could hear the vaguely asking about how an accident occurred in the water to save himself. It may be scared by the diving accident at the time.

    On the other side, Zhao Zhemu always sat in that corner and looked at everyone.

    This scene took place in a corner of the huge video, and because other places in the screen were still dancing in the group, the noise was too attractive, so that it was easy to be ignored in this corner.

    Yan Suizhizhi simply pulled the video directly, allowing what happened in this corner to fill the entire holographic screen.

    Everyone in the court could clearly see that Qiao An's waiter entered the mirror with a disk, and there were a few drinks on the disc. He stopped in front of Zhao Ximu, then bent over and asked with a smile. : "What do you drink? Master Qiao let me not get wine, there are pear juice, apple juice and ..."

    Most of the sound was covered by the background smile, but it can also be seen from Zhao Zimu's mouth shape that he asked for apple juice.

    Then, a strange scene appeared.

    When the waiter handed the cup over, Zhao Jimu reached out and grabbed the empty manner-

    His hand held a place two or three cm away from the cup.

    Obviously, the waiter was also froze, and then Zhao Zhemu rubbed his forehead, and the waiter smiled and said something, which seemed a little sorry.

    The waiter shook his head again, saying "It's okay" and the like.

    This time, Zhao Xuanmu reached out and grabbed very slowly. When he approached the cup, his fingers were a little hesitant. He seemed to be hesitant and hesitated before he stretched forward.

    The waiter may not be able to stand it anymore, and put the cup directly into his hands.

    Yan Suizhizhi replayed this section very much, and then asked Zhao Chuxing, "You just said very well that the condition was very good all night.... "

    "So, how to explain this paragraph?"
