Chapter 1359: Don’t Be Such A Drama Queen

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Cai Shengnan’s statement was reasonable and convincing.

Even the judge couldn’t help nodding. He asked Gu Nianzhi kindly, “Counselor, do you agree? ”

Of course, Gu Nianzhi couldn’t agree either.

Gu Nianzhi’s mind raced as she slowly stood up and said, “The defense lawyer has presented a new piece of evidence. I want to ask the defense lawyer, are the medical records listed in this magazine exactly the same as my client’s? ”

Gu Nianzhi’s emphasis on “exactly the same” was to remind everyone not to be misled by a specious piece of evidence.

Cai Shengnan’s heart skipped a beat. She smiled and said, “Of course they’re exactly the same. I can show everyone the comparison chart made by the experts...”

She returned to the dock and turned on her laptop to connect to the large projector in the courtroom.

Soon, a comparison chart appeared on the white projection screen in the courtroom. It was a comparison between the medical records in the literature and Song Jinning’s case.

“Please take a look, everyone. The description of the case here is 80% similar to Song Jinning’s description. We can conclude that... ”

“Hold on.” Gu Nianzhi raised her hand and called for a pause. “Let me ask the defense lawyer again. Who made this comparison chart? An expert? May I ask which expert witness?”

The things that could be presented in court had to stand up to scrutiny.

Aside from ordinary witnesses, expert witnesses were also very important.

Moreover, expert witnesses didn’t have to avoid the cross-examination session like ordinary witnesses. They could sit in the court from beginning to end and listen to the entire trial.

However, Huo Guanchen was the only ordinary witness present in court No. 1. There were no expert witnesses.

Cai Shengnan smiled and said, “Of course it’s from an expert, but he was too busy to attend court. He signed a certificate for me to prove that he had provided the evidence. ”

Cai Shengnan passed the expert’s signature around to the people in court.

Gu Nianzhi looked at the signature and returned the certificate to Cai Shengnan. She continued to look at the medical records on the big screen.

When she saw the last comparison box, Gu Nianzhi’s eyes narrowed.

“Defense lawyer, does the similarity of 80% of the cases prove that they are the same type of disease?” Gu Nianzhi picked up the laser pen in front of her and circled the last comparison box on the big screen. “Please take a look, everyone. The last comparison between the two cases is the cure.”

“The experts clearly stated that this type of case is incurable. That is to say, just as the defendant’s lawyer said, no matter how much care is given, the final result would definitely be a worsening of the condition and the patient would definitely die.”

“But after my client was released from the care of the defendant, Luo Jialan, not only did her condition not worsen, but she was also cured. Based on this alone, can you conclude that the two cases are the same type of disease?”

Gu Nianzhi found a loophole in Cai Shengnan’s argument and began to pursue it. “The Ebola virus is transmitted through blood and body fluids, and AIDS is also transmitted through blood and body fluids.”

“The early symptoms of the Ebola virus are also fever, weakness, and physical pain, similar to the flu.”

“Coincidentally, the early symptoms of AIDS are also fever, weakness, and night sweats, similar to the flu.”

“If we don’t look at the later stages, the similarity between the two may be 80% , so we can conclude that the two cases are the same?”

“You think it’s ridiculous too, don’t you?”

Gu Nianzhi also glanced at everyone in the courtroom. She smiled and continued, “I’d like to ask the defense lawyer’s expert witness how she came to the conclusion that the two diseases are the same because their conditions are 80% similar.”

Cai Shengnan quickly looked at her expert testimony and immediately retorted, “Please don’t be such a drama queen. My expert witness didn’t say that the two diseases are the same.”

Gu Nianzhi had been waiting for her answer. Hearing this, she immediately said, “Since we can’t prove that the two diseases are the same, then it means that the defendant, Luo Jialan, is still suspected of trying to kill my client by mentally abusing her.”

“May I ask, defense lawyer, why did you use the medical records in this magazine to prove that my client’s disease definitely would have worsened and she would die? Is this called changing the concept or perjury?!”

Whether it was changing the concept or perjury, it was a very serious accusation for a witness.

Cai Shengnan’s expression instantly changed, and she said in a low voice, “Objection. My expert witness didn’t say such a thing.”

“Your expert witness didn’t say anything like that, which means that the defendant’s lawyer, Cai, said what you said, which means that the person suspected of perjury is you.”

Gu Nianzhi walked up to Cai Shengnan and stood in front of her. Her large eyes were as black as black jades, and she smiled faintly. “So, either you admit that your expert testimony doesn’t apply to this case, or you admit that you yourself perjured. Choose one, lawyer Cai.”

Cai Shengnan’s eyes flashed with embarrassment, but she quickly calmed down and as if nothing had happened, she said, “This testimony is only circumstantial evidence. If the prosecution doesn’t like it, then it won’t be used as evidence in this case.”

The testimony that she had spent a lot of money and had rushed to find the psychiatrist to give was voided just like that.

Cai Shengnan felt that it was a pity, but at this time, it was the most obvious choice to make.

Gu Nianzhi nodded and said approvingly, “The defendant’s lawyer is quick to see the situation. It’s great that she can correct her mistakes.”

Cai Shengnan’s face twitched twice, and she almost vomited blood after being choked by Gu Nianzhi.

This rmethod wouldn’t work, but it didn’t matter because she still had another way out.

Cai Shengnan quickly composed herself and said to the judge, “Your honor, I would like to call two of my witnesses. The prosecution’s witnesses are requested to leave.”

The judge agreed to her request and knocked on the gavel to let Huo Guanchen leave. At the same time, he asked the bailiff to bring in Auntie Xing, one of the two witnesses of the defendant.

Auntie Xing was a housekeeper who came to the Huo family after Luo Jialan took over Song Jinning’s care.

She had a professional certificate to take care of mentally ill patients, so she was very popular in the domestic service industry.

When she came to the witness stand in court No. 1, Auntie Xing once again swore with trepidation that she was telling the truth and only the truth.

However, even though the witness was swearing, no one truly believed that the witness would tell the truth just because she had sworn an oath.

People who liked to lie also swore that they weren’t lying, and there was no contradiction in that.

If people believed what the witness said had to be the truth, their IQ made them unsuitable for legal work.

Gu Nianzhi returned to the plaintiff’s stand and sat down. Her palms were wet. She had also been breaking out in a cold sweat earlier, and she had almost been frightened by Cai Shengnan.

Song Jinning quietly reached out and grabbed Gu Nianzhi’s hand, then gripped it tightly.

This was meant to encourage her.

Gu Nianzhi relaxed and looked at Song Jinning with a smile. She mouthed, “I’m fine, thank you.”

Thinking to herself that the little girl’s face was pale and her forehead was covered in sweat but she still said she was fine, Song Jinning looked at Gu Nianzhi tenderly...

It wasn’t easy to be a lawyer. If one didn’t put in all their effort, they would be knocked down by the other party in no time.

They were competing in intelligence, but also in physical strength.

Gu Nianzhi held Song Jinning’s hand in reverse and motioned for her to look at the witness stand.

Cai Shengnan had already walked over to the witness stand and stood in front of Auntie Xing. She asked lightly, “Auntie Xing, is it? May I ask how long you’ve been taking care of Ms. Song Jinning at the Huo family’s Residence?”

Auntie Xing timidly looked at Song Jinning, who was at the plaintiff’s stand, and lowered her eyes. ” ... six years.”

She only joined the Huo family one year after Luo Jialan took over Song Jinning’s care.

The few domestic service staff who had taken care of Song Jinning in the past were fired by Luo Jialan.

“Taken care of her for six years? Tell me, why did you attempt to murder Ms. Song Jinning ” Cai Shengnan suddenly changed the topic and pointed out that Auntie Xing was Song Jinning’s attempted murder suspect!

Auntie Xing raised her head abruptly and looked at Cai Shengnan in disbelief. “What? What?! I tried to murder her?! I’m a witness, aren’t I?! Why did you say I tried to murder her?!”

Not only was Auntie Xing shocked, but everyone in the courtroom was also shocked.

Gu Nianzhi’s eyes darted between Auntie Xing and Cai Shengnan. She furrowed her brows and thought to herself, what was Cai Shengnan doing this time?

Was she looking to scapegoat her witness?
