In the court, Kuno sincerely repented, Imanishi spoke righteously, and the two old social foxes sang and performed a Shakespeare play like Romeo and Juliet. Outsiders who don't know the truth may even be moved by Kuno's coquettish appearance. But in the familiar

In the eyes of these two old foxes, this scene couldn't help but become a little funny.

Miyagawa sat in the plaintiff's seat, unintentionally enjoying the performances of her father and Kuno. She found that her father's witness cross-examination had completely destroyed the relevance of the video submitted by Kitahara and the others.

[Relevance of evidence]

[The so-called relevance of evidence means that there is some connection between the evidence and the facts to be proved. For example, in a homicide case, if the prosecutor submits character evidence that the suspect is irritable and irritable. Since there is no correlation between the character evidence and the murder behavior

,Such evidence will not be accepted due to lack of relevance]

If this video really turns out to be like Kuno said, and the inspection they are talking about is not a highway inspection, then this video has nothing to do with the performance of the Kawamoto Expressway's maintenance obligations.

Miyagawa felt in his heart that Kuno must be lying, especially when he saw his repentant look on the surface, but in fact he was proud of himself. Miyagawa really wanted to stand up and question Kuno directly, but when he saw his carefully trained expression,

His father's cross-examination blocked almost all possible avenues of questioning.

Miyagawa turned around and moved closer to Kitahara. After whispering for a while, as if they had agreed, Miyagawa stood up from his seat: "Chief referee, I want to directly request the summons of witness Suda.

To refute Saikuno’s testimony.”

Judge Kumagai on the stage nodded, stretched his arms slightly on the trial seat, relaxed his body muscles, and said loudly: "The witness withdraws from the seat. Call the witness Suda."

The court door was pushed open again.

"Click, click, click."

There was a sound of high heels hitting the ground.

A young girl in her twenties appeared outside the court. She had a ponytail and a delicate appearance. She wore a white trench coat on her upper body and a pair of dark blue trousers on her lower body. Her dress was smart and simple. However, her face was

She did not have the vigor and vitality of a young person in her twenties, but instead had an extremely tired look on her face. The corners of her eyes were pulled downwards, and a thick layer of dark circles held up her eyes, as if she was suffering from some huge force.

pressure.

When Miyagawa saw Suda's haggard expression, his heart skipped a beat and he felt a little distressed. Ever since Suda called to express his willingness to testify, they had been communicating with each other on the phone. Miyagawa learned that since that day at the nursing center

After the incident, Suda's position was frozen in the company.

In her daily work, Suda was constantly insulted by her superiors and criticized in various ways. She was also assigned to the night shift in the early morning hours, and she had no time to follow the inspection work that started at 6 a.m. The two closely packed shifts were lined up together.

, almost squeezing out Suda’s sleeping time.

The last time he spoke to Suda, Miyagawa could still faintly hear Suda sobbing on the other end of the phone.

Thinking of what Suda told him about his experiences, Miyagawa frowned slightly when he saw Kuno's proud look just now. The sense of justice in his heart was suddenly aroused, and a small fire emerged from his heart.

.

Miyagawa stood up, walked to the witness stand, came to the side of Suda, and whispered: "Suda, don't be afraid. Just tell everything you know. Tell all the grievances and unfair treatment you have suffered."

Speak to the judge and let the court do justice to you."

"Yes." Suda nodded towards Miyagawa with a somewhat fearful look on his face.

Miyagawa took a deep breath, straightened his upper body, raised his voice, and began the witness cross-examination.

"Witness your name."

"Suda Chiyo."

"Position?"

"Inspector of the Kawamoto Expressway G227 Maintenance Center."

Miyagawa took a step forward, looked at Suda on the witness stand, and asked: "The video we submitted to the court shows that on the afternoon of July 5th, Suda, you requested an inspection from the Director of the Nursing Center, Kukuno Yu.

.However, Kuno Yu rejected your request in a rude way. I would like to ask you what exactly you meant by 'inspection' that day, and whether you meant 'highway inspection'."

The moment Suda heard the question in the witness box, he seemed to have suffered some kind of stress reaction, and his body began to tremble slightly. His two hands unconsciously grabbed the wooden railing of the witness box in front of him, and the joint tendons on the back of his hands were

She exerted force, and the roots floated up. Her head lowered slightly, and her breathing became louder and louder, as if she was brewing some emotion.

Suda stood in the middle of the square formed by the small wooden fence and the table, like a girl who was lost while walking in the forest. There was a pair of blood-red demon eyes staring at the girl in front of her in the darkness of the forest, restraining her tightly.

The court fell into an eerie silence for a moment.

"Witness?" Judge Kumagai on the bench looked at this scene, coughed slightly, and couldn't help asking, "Please answer the lawyer's question."

Some of the hair on the side of Suda's face that was not tied into a ponytail hung down, covering her eyes, making people wonder what she was thinking. Then, she suddenly heard a "whoop" and relaxed.

The girl on the witness stand seemed to have made a great determination, and a heavy iron weighing tens of millions of kilograms was lifted from her heart. When Suda raised his head again, his eyes were extremely cold, like a

A robot without any emotions.

But I saw Suda saying in an almost cold voice: "Chief referee. In the video, the inspection I proposed to Director Kuno did not refer to the maintenance inspection of the highway pavement, but only the inspection of the damage to the iron mesh guardrails on the periphery of the highway."

As soon as the words fell, the entire court fell into unprecedented silence.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The entire audience in the court seemed to be doubting whether their ears heard it correctly.

They originally thought that what they would get from Suda would be an affirmative answer. Suda replied that yes, the "inspection" she mentioned in the video referred to maintenance inspections to refute the testimony of the other defendant's witness.

But now, Suda directly said that the "inspection" she mentioned that day did not refer to the inspection of maintenance roads. Doesn't this mean that she agrees with the testimony of the defendant's witness Kuno Yu?!

Many people in the auditorium reached out and took out their ears to confirm whether their hearing was normal.

If they didn't mishear what Suda said, then they misheard that Suda was a witness for the plaintiff. How could the plaintiff call witnesses to refute his own weird things?

"That is to say..." Miyagawa nodded slightly, but the next second, the expression on Miyagawa's face completely stiffened, and his whole body seemed to be frozen by ice. What did Suda say just now?! Was he agreeing with Kuno just now?

What did she say?! Did she hear it wrong?!

Miyagawa felt as if his joints were filled with lead, and it seemed that he had exhausted all his strength before turning his body slightly to face Suda. Miyagawa's voice sounded slightly muted because he seemed not to believe what was happening in front of him.

With trembling, "Suda...Suda, have you...thought it through...do you need to re...organize the language?"

Miyagawa just finished speaking.

The next second.

Suda raised his head, looked at the referee's seat in front of him, and raised his voice and said: "Chief referee. What I want to say is that during my tenure, Kawamoto Expressway fully complied with national standards and maintained the expressway."

Suddenly.
Chapter completed!
