Qi Fangzheng, who has always been strict with himself and took it as his duty to uphold legal justice, had to raise his voice and remind everyone several times before Judge Rodwell could calm everyone down.
Qi Fangzheng was furious: "Ni Sanbao, you have spread rumors and slandered a prosecutor's name. I will never give up."
"Please do not threaten my client." Tang Yuanli gave a stern warning: "Your Excellency, prosecutor, you can continue to ask questions related to this case."
Qi Fangzheng did not dare to use the words "scum and scum" to describe Ni Sanbao: "Ni Sanbao, was it you who kidnapped Yao Hongtu?"
"We did it." Ni Sanbao admitted readily: "There are eight of us and seven guns. I am timid, so I didn't dare to take the gun. Our boss called... Zhang Ziqiang... After kidnapping, I I was afraid that if I were caught, I would be beheaded, so I turned myself in."
"You still know that you want to behead him?" Qi Fangzheng sneered: "Tell me, why did you kidnap Yao Hongtu, and what is your purpose?"
Ni Sanbao said slowly: "Yao Muqing asked us to kidnap him."
"boom".
The whole court was in a state of shock.
Yao Qiyi, who was sitting in the auditorium, turned pale.
He wasn't excited or abusive.
Looking at his expression, he seemed to understand something.
Judge Rodwell struggled again to silence the courtroom.
"The rumor you made is very unwise." Qi Fangzheng never expected that the prisoner would actually say something like this: "Who is Yao Muqing? He is Yao Hongtu's grandfather, and Yao Muqing only has one grandson. Normally Thinking about it from a human perspective, does anyone here think that a grandfather who loves his offspring would kidnap his own grandson?"
Reasonable inference.
"It's not like that, it's not like that, and Yao Muqing doesn't really want to kidnap." Ni Sanbao was a little incoherent.
Qi Fangzheng felt that he could make up for the humiliation just now: "Isn't it really a kidnapping? Is Yao Muqing playing a game with his grandson? Did he hire eight kidnappers with weapons to play an exciting game?"
"I...I don't know what to say." Ni Sanbao stammered: "Our boss Zhang Ziqiang has known Yao Muqing for a long time. That time he transferred our boss to Shanghai and asked him to go to Huatong The flour mill kidnapped a child named Yao Hongtu and promised to give us 100,000 yuan after the incident was completed."
"That's nonsense!" Qi Fangzheng dismissed it: "Any kidnapping case has a purpose, for money and revenge. What is Yao Muqing's motive for kidnapping his grandson? For money? Could it be that he kidnapped his grandson and then blackmailed himself? For revenge? What kind of hatred can he have with a six-year-old grandson? "
Tang Yuanli, who had rarely spoken until the trial, suddenly said: "Your Excellency, I request to speak."
"allow."
Tang Yuanli stood up: "I think Ni Sanbao's testimony is very possible. Just imagine, the whole kidnapping case was carefully planned and the time was just right. More importantly, everyone, pay attention, where did the kidnapper hide after he succeeded? Kang No. 352 Naotou Road, that is Yao Muqing's old house, how did the kidnappers know about it? How did they get in?"
Someone started to whisper.
Qi Fangzheng immediately asked: "What's the motive? What is Yao Muqing's motive?"
"Motive?" Tang Yuanli smiled: "This involves the privacy of the Yao family. Originally, it was a very unethical thing to expose other people's privacy in front of so many people. But as the prosecutor, What the police say is that upholding the dignity of the law is the most sacred thing, so I have to say some things that I shouldn't say.
In fact, there are not many secrets in Shanghai. I once heard such a rumor. Yao Hongtu, he is not actually the son of Mr. Yao Qiyi, nor the grandson of Mr. Yao Muqing. He is actually the child of Yao Muqing and his daughter-in-law! "
It's a mess, it's a complete mess!
In fact, not everyone in the auditorium had heard this rumor, but it was still shocking enough to say it in front of so many people.
"Quiet, quiet!" Judge Rodwell spent a lot of effort to make the court quiet again: "Lawyer Tang, what you said requires evidence."
"Of course, I will present the evidence in a moment." Tang Yuanli said calmly: "Yao Qiyi also knew about this, so he hated his father and took his son...no, he should be called his younger brother, to live in China. He went to a flour mill and did not allow his younger brother to meet his father.
I still sympathize, but sympathy is not the same as the law. We can think about it from another angle. Mr. Yao Muqing missed his children too much, so he had to take this step and planned this kidnapping case, but no one thought of it. Ni Sanbao surrendered because of fear. Only then could the truth of the kidnapping case come to light. "
"This is all your guess!" Qi Fangzheng raised his voice: "As your Excellency said, where is the evidence?"
"Your Honor, I request that the witness Chunni be summoned."
"Is she related to this case?"
"Yes, and it's very important."
"agree."
Chuni was brought to court.
He was probably in his early twenties, and he was dressed in a very rustic style. It looked like he had just come to Shanghai from the countryside.
Standing on the witness stand, I was trembling all over, as scared as I wanted to be.
Ni Sanbao glanced at Chuni and covered his mouth.
This group of people, after following me for a long time, all of them have become drama stars.
When the war is over, if they are still alive, I will set up a film company and hire them as actors.
Tang Yuanli comforted Chuni and asked her to calm down: "Name."
"Chunni..."
"What's your last name?"
"Meng..."
"identity?"
"What?"
"What do you do?"
"Oh, I'm the maid of the Yao family, I just came in."
"Then tell your honor what you know. You must also explain clearly why you knew these things just after you entered Yao's house."
Chuni glanced at Judge Rodwell timidly: "That day, I went to clean up the room in the master's room, and one of the master's watches fell on the table. I got greedy when I saw it, and hid it in my pocket. Unexpectedly, at this time, The voices of the master and the young lady came. I was scared and worried that the theft would be discovered, so I hid under the bed.
The master and the young lady entered the house. The master asked, still haven't seen the child? The young lady said, Yao Qiyi will not let me see him alive or dead. Then the young lady cried. The master comforted him a few words, and quietly told the young lady not to worry, she would be able to meet the child soon, because he had found a few people to get the child back.
Later, I heard that Yao Hongtu was kidnapped. I wonder if this has something to do with the master? If the master is caught, will my stealing of the watch be exposed? I was really scared, so I decided to go to the police to report this. I found Inspector George and told him all these things..."
Ni Sanbao sighed in his heart when he heard this.
The acting is exaggerated.
I thought their acting skills were superb, but I didn't expect them to be so exaggerated.
The articulation is so clear.
She doesn't look like a little girl who just came from the countryside.
Also, does Yao Muqing’s kidnapping of children have anything to do with your exposure to stealing a watch?
How did you find Inspector George?
Is there such a coincidence?
Fortunately, this time we were not trying to convict Yao Muqing, otherwise something would have happened with so many flaws.
Well, it looks like we are going to have a training course for these agents sometime.
The name is...
An actor’s self-cultivation!
"This is impossible." Sure enough, Qi Fangzheng keenly caught the loophole in Chuni's words: "The Yao family lives on Yuyuan Road, near the Jing'an Temple Prison House. Why did this Chunni go to Laozha on Liuhe Road? Arresting someone to surrender? This is against common sense."
"I...I'm from the country." Chuni said timidly: "I'm lost."
This is a good reason.
Ni Sanbao was very impressed.
Although his acting skills are a bit exaggerated, his ability to adapt to changes is still good.
Well, there is a future for training.
"This is not the most important thing, Prosecutor Qi." Tang Yuanli said immediately: "It just so happens that Mr. Yao Qiyi is in the auditorium. We can ask him to verify the true relationship between the three generations of the Yao family."
Although it was an extremely embarrassing thing, Judge Rodwell didn't care about it, so even if Yao Qiyi was not happy, he was still asked to stand on the witness stand.
And Judge Rodwell seriously warned him that he must answer the questions truthfully, otherwise he would be punished with perjury.
"That's right, Yao Hongtu was born to that old guy and my wife." Yao Qiyi's eyes were red and he almost roared: "That old pervert didn't even let his daughter-in-law go! I am Yao Hongtu who has reached the age of five. I didn’t know the truth until I was 2 years old. I hated that old guy and my wife, but Yao Hongtu was innocent. He was my brother after all.
I took Yao Hongtu to the flour mill and refused any visits from the old man. He was a man who wanted to save face. He was afraid that I would make a fuss and did not dare to fall out with me. It has been like this for more than a year. I think maybe in the future. That was until the kidnapping happened. Well, the old guy got his way now, he got his son! "
The truth comes out.
The rumors in the past are all true, Yao Hongtu is really Yao Muqing's son.
"Although Yao Hongtu is Yao Muqing's son, it does not mean that he planned the kidnapping case." Seeing the possibility of the case being overturned, Qi Fangzheng hurriedly said: "Evidence, we need evidence. Just relying on Ni Sanbao's one-sided words, It is impossible to convict Yao Muqing."
"Prosecutor Qi, I know that you have a good relationship with Yao Muqing. Are you worried that your friend will be involved in this case?" Tang Yuanli smiled: "Dear Judge, in view of the major changes in the case, I suggest that Yao Muqing be summoned immediately to be the prosecutor of this case. Important witness."
"Agree." Judge Rodwell said without any hesitation: "Immediately summon Yao Muqing, and the case will be postponed to 1 p.m. to continue the trial. Now, the trial is temporarily adjourned!"
