In the name of love

See her figure.

"It will be here soon. The clerk has contacted her by phone. Please wait in court for a while because of business." Ai Ting immediately stood up from the prosecution's seat and said with a gloomy face.

The judge nodded and said to Ji Lan: "It seems that the witnesses requested by the defense have arrived. If Prosecutor Ai does not object, can we start with the defense today?"

Yulu looked at Ji Lan questioningly, Ji Lan nodded, and said in a low voice, "Li Fu is already in the witness room."

Yulu couldn't help becoming nervous, this was the first witness with the most serious suspicion besides Ye Chang, if Li Fu was the real murderer, it would definitely not be as simple as cross-examination today.

Ji Lan stood up from the defense seat, and walked slowly and naturally to the center of the court like flowing water.

"In court, dear prosecutor, before calling our witnesses, the defense here sorted out some physical evidence about the incident, as well as the defense's own rough inferences."

As Ji Lan spoke, she picked up something like a remote control pen from the table, and turned to the monitor that had been placed in the center of the court.The image was projected on a clean white screen, and Yulu recognized the toilet at a glance.

"Please take a look, this is the toilet on the second floor of the activity center at the time of the incident. There is a camera at the door that can store [-]-day image files. This camera will be connected to the computer in the guard room. You can see it from the guard room The condition of each camera, of course, is based on the fact that the camera is not broken."

All eyes from the spectator seats were directed towards Ji Lan. Many people were obviously seeing Ji Lan for the first time. Yulu saw that several young girls had been whispering to each other, obviously discussing Ji Lan's appearance, and at the end they giggled. laugh.

"Now I will play the video footage of the incident from the beginning, starting from the picture at three o'clock."

"Disagreement, the video footage reviewed by the police has long been submitted to the court, and the defense is just wasting time by doing so."

Ai Ting said dissatisfiedly on the other end, it seems that he is in a really bad mood today, even his abdominal muscles look sagging.

"I think the way the defense interprets the video may be different from that of the prosecution, so the defense thinks it is necessary to explain again, in court." Ji Lan said conservatively.

"You mean we don't know how to interpret it?"

"The way of interpretation varies from person to person. For example, if the prosecution insists that my defendant is the murderer, the interpretation must also go in this direction. That's why the defense wants to try to raise different possibilities."

"Sophistry! If it weren't for your mouth, how could Xiaocao..."

Ai Ting folded his arms and began to read aloud, Yulu couldn't help but look funny, it seemed that Ai Cao had really turned against his father, the father won a big victory in court, but suffered a crushing defeat at home, Yulu endured I couldn't help feeling a little sympathetic to him.

"The objection is dismissed, the defender please continue." The senior judge in the middle said calmly.

"This is the starting screen at three o'clock, everyone in the court please take a look here."

Ji Lan reached out for the infrared pen and swiped across the still toilet screen.

"The rain started to fall at the end of two o'clock that day. According to the surveillance video, after three o'clock, except for my defendant Ye Chang and the victim, no third person entered the men's restroom. According to the information provided by the prosecution According to the record, Ye Chang entered the toilet at four o'clock, and the boy came in less than 10 minutes after him, am I right, Prosecutor Ai?"

Ai Ting sat on the chair and nodded reluctantly.Ji Lan continued to say:

"In this way, this picture is very delicate. I don't know if you have seen that in the picture at three o'clock, no one has entered the toilet yet, but there are already wet muddy footprints on the floor?"

Ji Lan zoomed in on the screen while talking, Ai Ting wanted to say something, but Ji Lan quickly interrupted him.

"I know that everyone will question whether this is a footprint. I was also skeptical when I first saw it, but I asked a friend who is good at image analysis to make a forensic report for me. According to the results of many past closed-circuit cameras, the expert It turns out that such stains most likely come from the soles of human shoes, which are commonly known as shoe prints."

Ji Lan took out a stack of documents and asked the interpreter to present them to the judges' bench. Yulu saw that several judges passed them on attentively.

"Unfortunately, this shoe print is not clear enough to identify who owns it." Ji Lan faced the judge's bench and talked eloquently, "But at least we can prove that from the beginning of rain that day to three o'clock, Ye often goes in and out of this toilet with people other than the victim, otherwise it would be impossible to leave such footprints."

Ai Ting suddenly "sneered" and interrupted Ji Lan.

"Wait, don't you want to say that someone entered the toilet before three o'clock that day and was locked in the toilet room until the police arrived after six o'clock? Are you trying to say that?"

"I don't think this possibility can be ruled out." Ji Lan said seriously.

"Strange...absurd!"

Ai Ting didn't know what to think of, but he choked up the words.He spoke again coldly:

"Let's not mention that when the police arrived, they had already searched the entire scene. Not even a mouse was left in it. The camera was closed and no one left the toilet until eight o'clock that day."

"Even if someone really went to that toilet before three o'clock, he would have left before three o'clock, otherwise the defendant should have bumped into him in the toilet, how could he masturbate unscrupulously when there are people in the toilet ? If you don’t believe me, ask your defendant if there was anyone in the toilet when he went into it after four o’clock?”

Ai Ting pointed to Ye Chang in the dock, but Ye Chang kept his head down, not even knowing if he was in the hearing.

"This is exactly what the defense wants to explain, please be patient with the prosecutor."

Ji Lan was still polite, he turned the remote control, and the closed-record camera image faded from the screen, replaced by a photo of the toilet interior.Yulu didn't know when Ji Lan went to shoot these, probably when he broke his nose and flirted with Ji's fourth brother (?), he couldn't help but sigh in shame.

"Everyone can clearly see from the picture that the men's restroom has a urinal on the left and a toilet on the right. Generally, there are only one or two toilets in men's restrooms, but the men's restroom in the activity center is special, with a total of three I asked the manager who planned the internal hardware, and he said it was because there are many elderly people with disabilities in the activity center, and the toilets are convenient for them to use.”

Ji Lan's infrared pen slid across the three toilets.

"I have inspected these three toilets on the spot. The door locks are intact and the height is high enough. The leftmost toilet for the handicapped has a seat. The toilet that Ye Chang entered at the beginning was the one on the far right. That is to say, if someone was hiding in the other two toilets at that time, it would not be easy to be detected."

"What about leaving? Even if someone hid in the toilet before three o'clock, how did he leave? Can he fly into the sky? Or hide in the ground?" Ai Ting snorted coldly.

"This is exactly what I plan to explain to the court. Please take a look at this photo."

Ji Lan shook the remote control in her hand again, and another photo appeared on the screen, "When I was reading the police report on the scene, I found it strange that the police records completely revolved around the camera at the door, as if there was only one toilet Entrances and exits. Do you know? The most feared thing about toilets is humidity, and there are almost no public toilets in the whole country without windows."

Ji Lan’s infrared pen is placed next to the urinal. There is a large window about the width of a person’s arm. The entire window sill extends outwards. There is a transom on the front, left and right, and there is another on the top. There is also an exhaust fan on the top. , a small pot of cactus was placed on the window sill, a typical design for ventilation.

"This is the transom window in the toilet. It is next to the toilet on the left. Generally, the transom window is used as a fall prevention device, so it cannot be opened very far, but the design here does not seem to care about this. I did a field test. The width of the transom window It is enough to accommodate an adult male to pass through, and there is grass outside the transom window, and beyond the grass is the building in the east building, so the height of the second floor is no problem at all.”

Ai Ting snorted, "Just saying that anyone can do it, who knows if it really works?"

"At least I worked. I got myself out of the transom, down on the grass down there and back around the toilet door, all right except a little scrape, and I'm not a particularly athletic guy."

Ji Lan said something that even surprised Ai Ting, "I asked my elder brother who was accompanying me to take a picture of the whole process with my mobile phone. If the prosecution needs it, I can provide the video." Ji Lan added.

Ai Ting's face was very ugly, "No need. But even if adult men can really jump from the transom, so what? Could it be that the argument of the defense is that someone happened to go to the toilet before three o'clock and stayed in the toilet until the victim Come in, sexually assault the victim after the defendant leaves the toilet, and then escape through the transom?"

"However, according to the available evidence, the prosecution seems unable to deny such a possibility."

"The defense can't prove that someone escaped through the transom, can they?"

"It is the prosecution's basic responsibility to prove that the defendant has a [-] percent probability of committing a crime."

Ji Lan seemed to have finally waited for Ai Ting's words, and put one hand on the defense seat, "The defense has tried its best to raise doubts and the basis for the possibility that someone other than the defendant may have committed the crime. Before any defendant is proven guilty, he must You are not guilty, and I think everyone present has overlooked one point."

Ji Lan turned to the auditorium, her voice was clear and loud:

"It's not that the defense must actively prove that my defendant is not the murderer, but that the prosecution should do everything in its power to prove that the defendant is guilty and that there are no other suspects other than the defendant. If the prosecution cannot do this, it should Withdrawal against the accused
