Chapter 1087: Acquaintances
The meaning of Liao Liqin's words is obviously not because she believes in Zhai Nan's character, and then believes that he did not commit a crime.
It's that she thinks that with Zhai Nan's character, once she commits a crime, she should be a cautious criminal, not an impulsive criminal.
The police said that before the incident, the victim had abused Zhai Nan on the subway, and Zhai Nan may have held a grudge and followed the other party to wait for revenge. If we testify for him on a personality note, the prosecution may refute us with the idea that it is out of control after sustained psychological repression. ”
Liao Liqin thought for a while, sat down next to Mu Zi, and asked, "What about the victim?" What kind of people are they? ”
"23 years old, Shi Biqi, an extra actor in the repertory troupe, went home after rehearsals at night, and happened to be on the same subway as Zhai Nan."
Mu Zi handed the information to Liao Liqin to see, someone was willing to help Zhai Nan, and Mu Zi was willing to help one more person.
"The subway was very crowded, Shi Biqi had physical contact with Zhai Nan, scolded Zhai Nan on the subway for being a pervert, sexually harassed her, said a lot of insulting words, and threatened that if Zhai Nan dared to touch her again, he would call the police, and after arriving at the station, the two got off at the same time, Shi Biqi was raped in an alley a few hundred meters away from home."
Mu Zi sighed and said, "Afterwards, the prisoner fled, and Shi Biqi called the police and identified Zhai Nan as having done it. ”
"Have you been in contact with this victim?" Liao Liqin asked.
Mu Zi shook her head: "I have called, I haven't met, as the defendant's lawyer, too much contact with the victim is a violation, she will sue me for harassment." ”
Liao Liqin nodded knowingly: "Is her testimony credible?" What was the environment like? How is the light, is there any obstruction, etc. ”
"There's a street light twenty meters away." Mu Zi was silent for a moment and said, "I think it is very likely that the prisoner planted the crime, Shi Biqi was impressed because she had a dispute with Zhai Nan, and when a person with a similar body shape appeared, it was not impossible to admit his mistake." ”
Liao Liqin understood, "So, you don't have any strong evidence here, so you want to find a personality witness." ”
Mu Zi smiled faintly, "You can't wait." ”
Liao Liqin was silent.
After a while, she said, "Actually, you don't have to take this case, it may be more appropriate to leave it to someone else." ”
Mu Zi said: "Call me after Zhai Nan's accident......"
"Maybe he's just taking advantage of you." Liao Liqin interrupted her, "Could it be that you really treat him as a friend?" To be honest, do you regard Zhai Nan as a friend? ”
That's a very polite question.
Mu Zi pursed her lips, "No ......"
The answer sounds cruel, but in Mu Zi's opinion, the first condition for being friends is to have a harmonious aura.
For example, she and Jiang Ci, Jiang Zhinuan, Zhuang Jia, and Xiao Ming and Yu Yang will be very comfortable and unrestrained when they get along.
And she and Zhai Nan can only be regarded as classmates who are familiar with each other.
It's an acquaintance, not a friend.
"When things come to me, I can't ignore them." Mu Zi explained, "Moreover, I don't feel that he is using me, he just chooses what is most beneficial to him within the resources he knows, this is human nature, I can understand it." ”
Mu Zi is well-known, and the cases she handles, regardless of whether she wins or loses, will first get very large exposure.
With exposure, there will be attention, and any suspicions will be magnified, which is undoubtedly very beneficial to Zhai Nan's case.
Therefore, Mu Zi could understand why Zhai Nan was desperate to ask her to defend.
"But I hate it." Liao Liqin said, "As a student of the Judicial Research Institute, you should be open and honest about the pros and cons, instead of playing scheming, frankly speaking, I don't think he has put his mind on the right path at all." ”
Mu Zi smiled helplessly: "Teacher Liao, not everyone can be as outspoken as you......"
