Chapter 394 Judge Xu
Looking at the transformed Sharina, Li Jian clicked his tongue in amazement and said, "Ms. Fang, I've discovered you have great potential as a secretary. How about it? I have a friend who's looking for an administrative secretary."
Salina rolled her eyes at him: "Not interested!"
talking.
Salina took the lead and walked out of the ward.
Li Jian quickly caught up with him.
The journey to the court was smooth and uneventful, without any unexpected issues.
"Please call upon the prosecution's witness!"
As soon as I arrived at the courthouse entrance, I heard the judge's authoritative voice from inside.
Li Jian pulled the slow-moving Sharina along, and they ran a few steps faster.
.
They stormed into the courtroom.
Brush brush!
The moment Li Jian pushed open the door and entered.
All eyes in the courtroom were on them.
This was Li Jian's first time appearing in court. Seeing everyone's gaze, Li Jian couldn't help but laugh and say, "Witness Sharina is already here!"
Salina's hip injury has not yet healed, making it difficult for her to take large steps.
She doesn't have the same thick skin as Li Jian.
With so many eyes watching, Sharina felt her face burning and flushed.
Luckily, Li Jian had prepared a pair of sunglasses for her beforehand, otherwise she really wouldn't have dared to look up.
Li Jian held Salina's small hand and comforted her, "Don't be nervous, they won't eat you."
Huang Bingyao waved to Li Jian, who quickly ran over and sat down next to him.
Huang Bingyao lowered his voice and asked, "What happened? Why are you so late?"
Li Jian also lowered his voice and said, "Don't ask me, ask her."
Following the direction Li Jian pointed, Huang Bingyao saw Salina.
No need to ask, women have the most to say.
Arriving at this time is already very punctual.
On the judge's bench sat a hooded judge.
Li Jian felt that the Grand Justice looked familiar, like the deadpan comedian Michael Hui.
The judge then said, "Call the prosecution's next witness."
Li Jian was still waiting to see what would happen, but no one stood up.
Li Jian couldn't help but ask, "Who's the next witness?"
Huang Bingyao gave him a push and said, "It's you, hurry up and go up!"
"I?"
Li Jian pointed to his nose and asked, "Why didn't anyone tell me beforehand?"
Wong Bing-yiu said, "What's there to rehearse about these accusations? Just say what you know and go through the motions."
Li Jian nodded.
He was the deputy commander in charge of arresting Zhu Tao.
Zhou Huabiao raised his fist and waved at him: "Come on, don't be nervous."
Li Jian gave a wry smile.
nervous?
He was certainly not nervous.
I'm just a little unaccustomed to this kind of sudden attack.
Li Jian leisurely stood up and walked to the witness stand.
One of the witnesses was holding up a book.
Li Jian raised his right hand and placed his left hand on the book, saying, "I guarantee with my character and conscience that I will faithfully fulfill my legal obligation to testify, and guarantee to tell the truth without any concealment. If I break this oath, I am willing to accept legal punishment and moral condemnation."
Huo Zihao stood up and walked up to Li Jian, asking, "Li sir, please recount the entire process of carrying out the mission that day."
Li Jian said, “At the time, I was on a mission in the wooden shack area. The first, second, third and fourth defendants fired shots to resist arrest and fled. I saw them get on a double-decker bus.”
So I took a shortcut and ran down the hillside.
I jumped from the hillside onto the bus, and three of the defendants fell out of the window. Then I got on the bus and arrested the first defendant.
The defendant brought out an empty box, claiming it contained $1.5 million, and asked me to let him go, but I refused.
The voice just fell.
Zhu Tao shouted, "Nonsense! What empty box? I clearly had 1.5 million dollars in there! You must be the corrupt cop who stole my money!"
Li Jian shrugged and said, "The passengers present can all testify that the suitcase was empty."
"Nonsense! Bullshit! You bastard, you stole my money and then arrested me! I'll haunt you even in death!"
Zhu Tao shouted at the top of his lungs.
Judge Xu tapped his gavel: "Silence! No noise is permitted in the courtroom!"
Zhu Tao immediately shut his mouth.
In Hong Kong, judges wield considerable power.
Even if he is innocent, a judge can still sentence him for yelling in court.
Huo Zihao turned to Li Jian and asked, "Li sir, is there anything else you want to say?"
Li Jian shook his head: "I've said everything."
Huo Zihao nodded and said, "Well said, thank you."
"Mr. Li Jian, you just said you came out of the wooden house area. What time was that?" Zhu Tao's defense lawyer, Attorney Zhang, asked.
Li Jian said, "Around six o'clock."
Attorney Zhang pressed on, asking, "Around six o'clock? Please give me an exact number."
Li Jian said, "I'll curse your mother. I was chasing the car at the time, I didn't have time to check the time. I want to ask Attorney Zhang a question."
"Please give me an exact number: what time did you last sleep with your wife?"
Attorney Zhang, his face flushed with anger, looked at Judge Xu and said, "Your Honor, I believe the witness's words were insulting, and I protest!"
Judge Xu tapped his gavel: "The protest is valid. Witness, please watch your words."
Li Jian stuck out his tongue, treating it as if he had just farted.
Attorney Zhang took a deep breath and continued, "Let's assume it's six o'clock. Do you know that the sun rises over the horizon at 6:23 in December on Hong Kong Island?"
Li Jian didn't answer the question, but instead asked in return, "Attorney Zhang, since you enjoy observing the sunrise so much, why don't you become an astronomical researcher? Why be a lawyer here?"
Attorney Zhang was furious: "Your Honor, I protest."
Judge Xu picked at his ear and said, "Protest denied. Please do not ask questions unrelated to the case."
Attorney Zhang, having suffered a setback, continued, "Yes, Your Honor, my question was not unfounded. I would like to ask the witness, are you familiar with the term 'the darkness before dawn'?"
This term means that there is a period of great darkness before sunrise.
Li Jian shrugged and said, "I know Leon Lai. He's one of the Four Heavenly Kings, along with Jacky Cheung, Andy Lau, and Aaron Kwok."
Hahaha--
Li Jian's words made the audience burst into laughter.
Even the judge couldn't help but cover his mouth and chuckle.
"I protest!"
Attorney Zhang felt insulted.
Judge Xu asked procedurally, "What are you protesting?"
Attorney Zhang said, "I am presenting the facts and reasoning, and I am talking about common sense, but the witness is dodging the issue and talking about other things. This is contempt of court!"
“I protest!” Prosecutor Huo Zihao also stood up. “The witness was just stating the facts. Leon Lai is indeed a star, and I believe many of you here know that.”
