Who Made Him a Lawyer?-Chapter 165 - 142: Sophistry! [4,000-Word Super - !]

Director Zhou has evidence?

There's an alibi? Even surveillance and eyewitnesses!?

The crowd at the scene was in an uproar.

In a case like this, how do you prove you have nothing to do with it?

No grudge with the deceased? Or perhaps you didn't know the deceased?

No, the simplest and most direct way is to have an alibi!

As long as you can prove you were elsewhere when the deceased died, even if you had a heated argument with the deceased before the incident, the police would consider you less suspicious!

Right now... Duan Feipeng has evidence too!?

"Defendant, please present your evidence!"

Judge Zhao Yi spoke in a deep tone.

Director Zhou smiled, extending his hand.

His assistant beside him took out well-organized documents, as well as a laptop that had a paused surveillance video on it.

"This is from the day of the incident, December 6th."

"This is the surveillance footage from the afternoon of my client's location. According to this footage, my client was not at the scene."

Director Zhou said this.

"Please review, Your Honor."

As he spoke, the court clerk had already come down from the bench.

The clerk opened the laptop, moved the mouse slightly, and immediately a look of astonishment appeared on their face.

The screen was fast-forwarding through footage from various angles, from 2 PM on the 6th to 10 PM that night!

Duan Feipeng was seen staying there from 2 PM until school was over.

He walked out of the school gate and got into a car amidst a crowd of people, and the car slowly started to move.

As the car moved, the perspective also shifted, including street and shop cameras!

In short.

This car was captured entirely on surveillance!

Finally, the car drove into the Mountain and Water Villa District, parked in a garage, and as the garage door closed...

The perspective shifted back to the living room surveillance of the villa.

Duan Feipeng was eating.

And the time in the upper right corner... was exactly 8 o'clock!

"It's really surveillance footage!"

The court clerk was shocked internally, and after reviewing it and finding no issues, returned to the bench with the evidence.

Judge Zhao Yi looked at the materials presented.

After reviewing it, Zhao Yi showed a look of astonishment.

This indeed was complete surveillance!

He hesitated slightly before making the entire video public in the courtroom.

Once the video finished playing...

All of a sudden, everyone present was stunned.

"It's truly an alibi! The time of death was around 8 o'clock, but from 7:30 to 8, Duan Feipeng was at home having dinner..."

"Did the police suspect the wrong person? Is Duan Feipeng really innocent?"

"No alibi... then only Du Ze and Jianghai left evidence of murder at the scene!?"

"Why is the case getting more confusing..."

"..."

The audience whispered softly among themselves.

And throughout Hanhai City, people squatting in front of their TVs watching the live broadcast frowned.

"There's something wrong with this video..."

In the plaintiff's seat, Yang Ruoxi spoke to Xu Liang.

Indeed, there was a problem.

Xu Liang nodded. Not to mention the solid evidence in his hand, this piece of evidence presented by the other side alone.

The video was not continuous, but jumped multiple times, with large gaps in the timeline!

This led to the suspicion that the video was pieced together.

For example, splicing the video of Duan Feipeng getting in the car with another from the 6th, where the driver didn't pick him up and drove home himself.

Then driving into the garage and closing the door.

Finally, an ending of a video at home having dinner.

"We must not be hasty."

Xu Liang whispered, "We can't rush, or we'll lose the case!"

Yang Ruoxi nodded, took a deep breath, calmed herself, and continued watching.

...

"Order, order!"

"Bang bang!"

On the bench, Zhao Yi listened to the noise around him, sensing enough time had passed, he knocked his gavel to restore order.

When the room gradually quieted down, he turned his head to look at Director Zhou.

"Defendant, do you have any further corroborations to prove the authenticity of this evidence?"

"Yes."

Director Zhou nodded.

"Honorable Judge."

"Persons appearing in the surveillance footage can corroborate this video!"

"One eyewitness is currently in the waiting room and can be brought into the courtroom at any time!"

"In addition, six written testimonies were submitted along with the video earlier."

Upon hearing this.

Zhao Yi did not hesitate, decisively stating:

"Bring the witnesses to the stand."

With these words.

Several bailiffs began to move.

In no time, the doors on either side of the courtroom opened, and several bailiffs appeared.

In the center of the bailiffs stood a middle-aged man, dressed in worn and faded clothes, extremely thin.

From his expression, he seemed slightly overwhelmed, but his eyes showed a hint of excitement and eagerness!

Shortly.

The eyewitness stood on the witness stand, looked around, swallowed, and then slowly said:

"Honorable Judge, I am the defendant's witness, Zhang Guo, 37 years old, I...."

Witness Zhang Guo took a deep breath, nervously introducing himself.

He had lived honestly his entire life, and this was his first time in such a grand setting, and as a witness no less!

"I am the eyewitness regarding Duan Feipeng's alibi for this case."

Zhao Yi nodded.

After pondering for a moment, he suddenly asked:

"Witness, may I ask, where were you at 5:10 PM on December 6th?"

Zhang Guo did not hesitate, and said, "I was at the school gate picking up my daughter from school that day."

Zhao Yi nodded again, then looked at the files and continued asking:

"May I ask, at that time, did you personally see Duan Feipeng walking out of the school?"

At the moment these words were spoken.

Everyone's eyes were focused on Zhang Guo.
