Chapter 267 Where is Wen Xiaoyun? Brother Yang? (8000 plus more)

  Thursday, rest day.

  After the pre-trial yesterday, the weather was calm.

   Although there are some small fluctuations in public opinion on the Internet.

   But in general, the wind and waves are not at all.

   Netizens are actually preparing to eat melons, or they are preparing to join a group.

  But...no one started a group!

   Originally, everyone thought that the trial of the case would start, and online public opinion would lead to a new round of storms, but this is not the case.

  Because of one of the sources of the storm, Cheng Lisha has stopped.

   She should be the one who brought up the storm, but she was stabbed in the back by V Bo, and she has been a lot more honest these days.

   Moreover, her public relations and network navy teams have all sent feedback. The black material posts they edited in the past few days about Zhang Wei and Yang Chuanfang seem to be unable to be published.

Even if    is sent, it will be blocked in the next second. Even if they send it once or twice countless times, it will still be the same result.

   They knew that someone must have used the blocking mechanism to block all their posts.

  Cheng Lisha is a senior media person, but the only trick she can use is to hire sailors to post and guide online public opinion.

   But if Shui Jun couldn't post, the public opinion would be guided by the other party first, so she naturally didn't do anything.

   Now that there are no people who "lead the charge", online public opinion is also quiet a lot.

   Another source is Zhang Wei, but unfortunately Zhang Wei doesn't like to use public opinion.

   So the whole Thursday was really calm.

  The only pity is that Zhang Wei wanted to investigate, but he could only be alone.

   "Hanhan is a member of the serious crime team, a representative of the prosecution, and I am the defense. It's a pity that we can't act together during working hours!"

   Zhang Wei sighed helplessly, and could only come to the coastline of Dongfang Capital alone.

  Changqing Hotel is located here.

   But since that incident, the business of Evergreen Hotel in Dongfang Capital has plummeted, and even more than half of the land and hotels have been sold.

   Now another hotel is operating here.

   However, there is still a small part of it that retains the style of the Evergreen Hotel.

   For example, the seaside mansion where birthday parties are held, this is a half murder scene, and the new owners dare not touch this mold.

  Zhang Wei walked into the hotel and explained his purpose, and the hotel waiter led him to the mansion that had long been abandoned.

The    mansion was surrounded by iron fences from the hotel. The nearby swimming pools were drained. The surface of the pools was covered with black stains, and the open space was also full of fallen leaves and garbage. Obviously, it had not been cleaned for a long time.

   "This place has been completely deserted since that incident happened that year. The boss also said that this place may have been contaminated with murder cases, and it would be unlucky to encounter it, so he took this circle out and separated it."

The messenger pointed to the iron fence and introduced it to Zhang Wei, "But, if you want me to say that this is not a problem, it means that our boss is in business, so I believe in this thing. We are all ordinary people in the market, and we don't believe in those gods and gods. Ghostly stuff."

   "Yeah, all the gods and ghosts are fake, we have to believe in science!"

   Zhang Wei made a perfunctory sentence, and after the waiter unlocked the door on the iron fence, he walked into the abandoned mansion alone.

  This mansion is not small, it is close to the seaside, with upper and lower sides.

   But because it has been abandoned for many years, this place looks a bit eerie, especially the humidity on the first floor is very heavy, the ground is moldy and waterlogged, and the air reveals the smell of corruption and turbidity.

   "It is said that the birthday party is held in the lobby on the first floor, let's take a look!"

  Zhang Wei found the room distribution map on the first floor, and then came to the lobby on the first floor.

   The layout of the birthday party that year is still preserved here. On the mold and corrupt furniture, you can vaguely see some ribbon banners with words such as "Happy Birthday" written in general.

"Many people attended the party. Young Master Yang invited hundreds of friends. In other words, so many people saw the quarrel between him and Wen Xiaoyun. The prosecution had so many eyewitnesses to prove that Young Master Yang had the possibility of impulsive murder. "

   "Also, I remember that after the "Hotel by the Sea" episode, there will be some behind-the-scenes footage and interview footage, and many of his friends have been interviewed, and their testimony is against him."

   "By the way, when you have money, you will have more friends. This is an indisputable fact. There must be a lot of people here who have received money from Cheng Lisha, right?"

  Zhang Wei was walking in the hall, thinking about the difficulties he might encounter in the court hearing tomorrow, and thinking about how to break the game.

   "By the way, why did Wen Xiaoyun run out of the party, but her girlfriends and roommates didn't go home with her?"

   Zhang Wei stopped and looked at the exit of the hall.

   Wen Xiaoyun left from that exit back then, and more than a hundred people in the hall were all watching her arguing with Yang Chuanfang.

   Yang Chuanfang's friend will definitely comfort him.

   But what about Wen Xiaoyun's best friends, why not comfort the former?

this is a problem.

   Also because of this problem, no one knows where Wen Xiaoyun went after leaving the party.

  Whether she disappeared, or died, or something else, no one knows.

   But ten years later, Wen Xiaoyun still does not appear, and the possibility of her survival is infinitely close to zero.

  Zhang Wei was in the center of the hall, and he seemed to see a lively birthday party in his eyes.

   "According to what Yang Chuanfang said, although he was very angry, he drank too much that day, and his brain was down..."

In the sight of   , there was a scene of Yang Chuanfang drinking and playing with his friends.

   Among these people, there may be some who sympathize with Wen Xiaoyun, but they know who they want to curry favor with, so they all gather around Yang Chuanfang, but Wen Xiaoyun has no one to accompany her.

   As for whether there was anyone chasing it out, this group of people at the scene were playing crazy, and it is estimated that no one will remember clearly.

   Zhang Wei swept around the hall again, and finally shook his head, but he was not disappointed.

   If there is any evidence here, the investigation department would have found it ten years ago.

   He followed the exit of the hall and walked out slowly, following the trajectory that might be Wen Xiaoyun, carefully observing step by step.

   Soon, he walked near the iron fence, and the back door exit of the hotel was less than 100 meters ahead.

   "No, if Wen Xiaoyun wants to leave, you should be able to see it from the concierge. There are not only waiters but also security guards at the back door of the hotel!"

   Zhang Wei recalled carefully, according to the file records ten years ago, neither the security guard nor the waiter saw Wen Xiaoyun leave the hotel at that time.

   Such an old man disappeared in the hotel?

   That is even more impossible. At that time, he remembered that the dossier said that in order to find Wen Xiaoyun, the investigation department dispatched an assistance dog.

  The clues that people can't find, can't the dog's nose be found?

   Thinking of the dog nose, a certain Hanhan immediately appeared in Zhang Wei's mind.

   This is a humanoid scout dog...he's still a heavyweight!

   "Don't don't don't..."

   After pinching the speechless thought out of his mind, Zhang Wei's attention returned to the scene again.

   He walked out of the iron fence and looked towards the back door of the hotel.

   "Since an assistance dog was dispatched at that time, there is only one possibility. Wen Xiaoyun was indeed in the hotel at the time, so the security couldn't see her leaving, but after the roommate reported the case, she was quickly transferred out?"

"But the roommate found out that Wen Xiaoyun didn't go back to the hotel room the next morning. In the afternoon, the investigation department launched an investigation, that is, only one day, how could he transfer a big living person under the eyes of so many people? ?"

   "In other words, Wen Xiaoyun actually left the hotel on the night of the party, but not alone, but someone took her away, and that person deceived the security's eyes?"

   Zhang Wei thought of two possibilities, but no matter which one was, he needed the assistance of another person.

  Wen Xiaoyun, it is absolutely impossible to leave the Evergreen Hotel by herself!

   And who is that person?

   The only thing Zhang Wei could be clear about was that that person was definitely not his client, Yang Chuanfang.

  Because he was drunk that day, he woke up in the hotel room the next day, and the security and others did not see him go out.

   "Is this...is it the improbable evidence of my client's crime?"

  Zhang Wei thought about it, although this statement makes sense logically, it is obviously not enough to convince the jury, and there are many points that cannot stand repeated scrutiny.

  For example, when Yang Chuanfang went back to his room alone, if there were any accompanying persons, the answer was no.

   Then the prosecution will use no one to prove it as an attack point.

   The second is Yang Chuanfang's identity at the time. He is the young owner of the hotel. Will the security and waiters lie because of his identity?

   Even if these people swore they didn't lie, the jury obviously wouldn't believe it.

   After all, it was all ten years ago, and you yourself are almost unable to remember the details, and you still want to convince our jury to believe these verbal statements?

   Isn't this bullshit?

One more thing…

   Yang Chuanfang should not have done this, but if the prosecution insisted that he did, how could Zhang Wei veto it?

   After all, key evidence is missing.

  OM—

   Just as Zhang Wei was thinking, the phone in his pocket vibrated.

"Hey?"

   "It's Young Master Yang, why did you call?"

"Oh, I am in the evernast hotel, no, I am in the site of the East, I was on-site investigation."

   "Yes, I like to visit the scene when I have nothing to do, because I have this habit, and I always feel at ease when I see it myself."

   "By the way, did you call to say something?"

   "Ah, your brother?"

   "Oh, okay, I'll go back to the law firm right away, then I'll see you in 1 hour!"

  Zhang Wei hung up the phone with a strange look on his face.

   Yang Chuanfang also has a younger brother, and after he heard about his brother's recent incident, he crossed most of the Dragon Kingdom and rushed over overnight.

   "This brother, is there anything I can do to help me?"

  Zhang Wei thought for a while, then set off immediately and returned to the law firm.

  …

  After 1 hour.

   Jincheng Law Firm, 25th floor.

   In a reception room, Zhang Wei met Yang Chuanfang's younger brother, his name was Yang Chuannan, and he was five points similar to Yang Chuanfang.

  It is certain that both of them have inherited the genes of their father, so there is a difference.

   The older brother may be a little more handsome. The younger brother's face is relatively gloomy, and there are some dark circles under the narrow corners of his eyes. The person who sees it seems to be hiding something in his heart.

   "Lawyer Zhang, this is my brother!"

"Brother, this is my defense lawyer Zhang Wei, and he is also the ace lawyer of the criminal department of Jincheng Law Firm. I have been browsing the web in the past few days and I have seen a lot of his deeds, many of which are cases with solid evidence, but all He was overturned by him!"

   Hearing what Yang Chuanfang said, Zhang Wei hurriedly waved his hand.

   "Where, where, it's all luck, luck..."

   Low-key, modest.

   Zhang Wei feels that this has always been his excellent character, and he must maintain and develop it in the future.

   After the three of them sat down, Zhang Wei spoke first.

   "This is Second Young Master Yang, right?"

   "Actually, I'm not a second young master. Now I also help my brother manage the hotel. It's a family business, and now the two of us are barely maintaining it..."

   When Yang Chuannan opened his mouth, his tone was inexplicably modest, even with a hint of pessimism.

   "But I remember that the Evergreen Hotel is a chain enterprise. There seem to be hotels and office buildings in more than ten first-tier cities in Longguo?"

   "This is all the shadow of our father's generation. Our brothers are just following the instructions of our late father."

   Yang Chuannan smiled shyly, his attitude extremely humble.

   "Hahaha, Second Young Master Yang is being humble. If I hadn't investigated beforehand and just heard what you said, I would have thought that your family had already declined. Are you impoverished sons?"

   Zhang Wei laughed, but he forced himself: "The value of the chain assets of Evergreen Hotel is also several billions. If you sell off the properties in those first-tier cities, you can raise two or three billion funds in a short time."

   Two or three billion wealth, how could it be considered poor?

   "By the way, Yang Ershao, you came back overnight, isn't the business in the northwest?"

   "In order to help my brother rehabilitate, the business over there is not important!"

   Yang Chuannan said, looking at his elder brother with serious eyes.

   "Then may I ask, do you have any clues or evidence?"

"This…"

   Yang Chuannan's eyes dimmed, then shook his head.

   Obviously, he has no proof.

   "Although I am very embarrassed, if there is no crucial evidence, it is useless even if you want to testify in court..."

   "Isn't that what a character witness says, my brother and I have been playing since childhood, I know what he is like, and he will never hurt her!?"

"she?"

   Zhang Wei glanced at the second young master.

   "Wen Xiaoyun, my brother's girlfriend, I already saw her as my future sister-in-law!"

   "Did you also attend the birthday party that day?"

   "Yes, I'm also there, and the layout and rehearsal of the scene were all arranged by me... And after my brother and the others quarreled that day, I went up and pulled them away."

"Oh, I see…"

  Zhang Wei nodded, and then asked, "Did you see anyone going out with Wen Xiaoyun that day?"

   "No, I didn't see it anyway!" Yang Chuannan shook his head.

   "Then Ershao Yang, I'm very embarrassed to tell you that even if you want to be a character witness, you can't, because you are a family member, and your testimony will not be accepted by the court!"

   Although saying this is a blow to the enthusiasm of the other party, Zhang Wei is helpless, because this is the truth.

  You can go up as a character witness, but you are the accused's brother. Do you think the jury will believe you?

   Moreover, you are also one of the young owners of the Evergreen Hotel. To put it bluntly, you are also a rich second generation.

  The jury doesn't believe anything else, but as long as the prosecution points out your identity, guess what they will think of you?

  zb family, rich second generation, celebrities with black material...

   If you want to make a list of the most hated witnesses by the jury, these can be said to be the top three.

   Therefore, it is not only impossible for Yang Chuannan to testify in court, it may even be a disservice.

   "Is this...is that so..." Yang Chuannan's eyes dimmed again, vaguely disappointed.

   "However, Young Master Yang, you reminded me!"

  Zhang Wei suddenly smiled slightly, then looked at his brother Yang Chuanfang, "Character witness is actually a good method!"

   "Young Master Yang, I would like to ask if your relationship with Editor-in-Chief Pei is very good. I remember that they spoke to you on the headlines of newspapers and magazines?"

   "Yes, I have known them for more than ten years. Although we have left the Oriental Capital in recent years, we have always been in touch!"

   "That's good, I'll make a call later to see if they can testify in court. Your brother can't be a character witness, but editor-in-chief Pei should be able to!"

   Zhang Wei did not delay, and immediately made a phone call and went out.

   Editor-in-Chief Pei had no objection to serving as a character witness, and even assured Zhang Wei.

   Now, there are witnesses.

   The meeting ended quickly.

   In the end, Zhang Wei sent the Yang brothers out of the law firm together.

   "Lawyer Zhang, if you have a place to get me, please do as you please, I believe my eldest brother must be innocent!"

   "Thank you Yang Ershao, I believe your brother is very happy to hear these words, at least there are still many people in the world who believe him!"

   "Yeah, not only my brother, but also editor-in-chief Pei and the others. It is because of their existence that I can get out of that time."

"Unfortunately, there are still too few people like us. Ten years ago happened to be the era of the fastest development of the Internet. People in that era almost listened to the wind and the rain. They didn't care whether you were innocent or not. They only wanted Joining in the fun and eating melons, I didn’t expect it to become a tool for people who have a heart to fuel the flames and gain fame and fortune!”

At the gate of   , Yang Chuannan, Yang Chuanfang, and Zhang Wei talked a lot.

   Knowing to send the two away, Zhang Wei's face gradually became solemn.

   "Cheng Lisa, you are so evil!"

   "By the way, how do I feel, isn't this second young master Yang a little too enthusiastic, does the wealthy family also have a family that is thicker than water?"

   "Also, isn't he too firm in believing in his brother?"

  Zhang Wei felt strange for a while, but he couldn't tell what it was.

   "The biggest problem now is that the new witness, tomorrow the prosecution will definitely let the new witness speak first, I have to find his flaws!"

   "Similarly, I'm also curious, why did it take the past ten years for this new witness to remember some key details?"

   Zhang Wei returned to his office, picked up the list of witnesses that Xiao Baihe handed over to him, and began to review it carefully.

The list of    was long, but he immediately locked the name of the new witness and began to investigate.

  Tomorrow, it will be a tough battle.
