Chapter 845 Shark

The judge struck the gavel, and with a bang, the trial officially began.

The prosecution's first witness was a maid.

"Witness, please briefly describe what happened that day," the prosecutor said.

Because it is a case of prosecution, the witness has spoken in court many times before, so the witness is very calm and expresses very clearly.

"It was after eight o'clock in the evening. I finished my work and was watching TV in my room. I heard my husband and wife arguing in the living room. Then there was no sound from outside. I came out and saw...the floor of the living room was covered in blood, and my wife was lying on the floor. In a pool of blood, Mr. opened the door and was about to escape."

"And what did you do then?" the prosecutor asked.

The witness replied: "I was terrified at the time. My wife's head was gone and blood was flowing everywhere. I called the police immediately."

"Are you sure the person you saw was Mr. Chen Bei'an in the dock?" the prosecutor asked again.

"yes, I'm sure."

"How long have you been a maid in Chen's house?"

"A year and a half."

"For a year and a half, then you should be very familiar with Mr. Chen Bei'an and the deceased Ms. Cai Xin, and you will never be mistaken?"

"Yes."

The prosecutor nodded and looked at the judge: "Your Honor, I'm done asking."

The judge looked at Mu Zi: "Please ask the defense lawyer to conduct an inquiry."

Mu Zi stood up, and the atmosphere in the courtroom changed accordingly.

The facts of the case are very clear, everyone's focus now is on how Mu Zi will defend Chen Bei'an.

"May I ask what is your specific job in the Chen family?" Mu Zi asked gently, "I know there are many types of maids, such as cleaning, cooking, gardening..."

The maid replied: "I'm in charge of making lunch and dinner. Usually, after dinner, I have to clean the entire kitchen, and then I can rest for a while. If my wife doesn't want supper at nine o'clock, I can get off work."

"Is it only the wife?" Mu Zi asked, "Mr. Chen Bei'an doesn't want supper?"

"Sir often doesn't come back at night."

Mu Zi shrugged, "It seems that the relationship between the two is very bad, they don't return at night, and they often quarrel, don't they?"

"Yes, it's no secret that my husband has many lovers outside..." The maid smiled coyly, "Either she didn't come back, or she came back and quarreled with his wife."

"Every time you quarrel, you will stay in the room?" Mu Zi asked.

"Yes." The maid nodded, "After all, this is not something to be proud of, I'm just a servant, meddling in my own business will only make me lose my job."

Mu Zi asked: "Do you still remember the content of their quarrel that night?"

"I didn't hear clearly." The maid shook her head, "I was watching TV at the time, and my room was a little far from the living room."

Mu Zi said: "You didn't hear the voice clearly, and when you came out, you only saw the back of the assailant, so can I understand that you are actually not sure that the man who escaped is my client, Mr. Chen Bei'an?"

"Objection!" The prosecutor stood up, "I object to the defense lawyer's leading questions to witnesses."

Mu Zi immediately said: "Your Honor, this witness is the only witness who witnessed the murder, and she didn't see the perpetrator's face the whole time! I think it is necessary to conduct in-depth questioning!"

The judge pondered for a moment, and said: "The objection is invalid, and the defense lawyer can continue to question."

"Thank you, Your Honor." Mu Zi smiled, turned around and looked at the maid on the witness stand again.

It's just that what she thought was a kind smile fell into the eyes of the other party, like a shark's smile before eating.

The witness visibly tensed up.

Gu Ershao, who was in the auditorium, whispered to Gu Liang: "Brother, do you think Miss Mu's appearance in court...is a bit scary?"

Gu Liang smiled without saying a word.
