Chapter 457 Waiting for the verdict

The first round of questioning began.

"Wu Zhantao, have you organized and led Lu Tao, Zhang Mingli... and others rushed to the old ranch with guns and prepared to negotiate with Qi Run on the company's shares?" The staff of the procuratorate asked bluntly.

"Yes." Wu Zhantao nodded without hesitation to admit.

"Before you went to the old ranch to negotiate, did you have the idea of ​​killing the victim Li Wenxin, Ye Ziliang and others?"

"No." This time Wu Zhantao shook his head and denied: "I asked someone to negotiate with Qi Run. The original intention was to win his own share interests and self-protection. He had no intention of killing people from beginning to end."

"Then why did your accomplice Zhang Mingli say that you told a fugitive named Ade in advance that you should shoot Li Wenxin and Ye Ziliang when necessary to prevent future troubles. What is the future troubles here? "The prosecutor of the procuratorate shouted again: "Does Ye Ziliang and Li Wenxin know some of your secrets?"

"No." Wu Zhantao continued to shake his head and denied: "Ade is not familiar with me. He was introduced by a friend named Dong Fuhai. He was mainly to scare Qi Run. I have never told him that he would kill Li Wenxin and Ye Ziliang."

"Did you shoot Li Wenxin and Ye Ziliang at the scene?"

"have!"

"You shot in the dark lights, right?"

"right!"

"Do you know that shooting at others in the dark lights will result in the death of others?" The prosecutor of the procuratorate asked with clear thoughts.

"...I shot with a gun, mainly to scare Qi Run, and I didn't think about who to kill." Wu Zhantao responded expressionlessly.

"You shot Ye Ziliang two times, right?"

"right!"

“For what purpose?”

"I'm going to protect myself." Wu Zhantao responded to Ziru.

"Did you say you want to kill Qi Run at the scene? Have you personally instructed Lu Tao, Zhang Mingli... and others to shoot at Qi Run and others?"

"No, I have never commanded it." Wu Zhantao shook his head and denied: "I will make a statement again. The main purpose of my negotiations with Qi Run in the old ranch is to ensure my shares and fight for the benefits I deserve. I never thought of really shooting someone or hurting anyone. I was called Lu Tao, Zhang Mingli... and I went together, just to scare and deter him."

"Then why would Lu Tao, Zhang Mingli and others take the initiative to shoot Qi Run and others, causing serious and minor injuries?"

"I don't know this." Wu Zhantao shook his head.

"Haha!" Qi Run listened to the conversation between the procuratorate staff and Wu Zhantao, and only grinned without saying a word.

Below the trial table, Erpang asked Tan Feng in confusion: "Who are Lu Tao and Zhang Mingli? Have you never heard of this before?!"

"I haven't heard of it, you're a scapegoat." Tan Feng replied with a gloomy face: "The case has turned around."

"Previous Judge, I apply to question Lu Tao." The staff of the procuratorate raised their hands and shouted.

"Agree!" the presiding judge nodded.

"Lu Tao, did Wu Zhantao say anything about killing Li Wenxin, Ye Ziliang or others before looking for you?"

"No!" The middle-aged man in his forties, who was in his forties, shook his head expressionlessly.

"Have you ever told you to shoot Qi Run and others when necessary?"

"No!" Lu Tao shook his head again.

"No? Then why did you join others to shoot at Qi Run? What's the motive?"

"My buddy Guo Wenju was shot and injured by Qi Run. I got on the head, so I shot. The two gangs were anxious and couldn't care about that much." Lu Tao responded expressionlessly: "Wu Zhantao asked me for business and promised to give me 200,000 yuan later as a reward, so I found Zhang Mingli, Guo Wenju and others, and the gun was also provided by me...!"

Outside the trial hall, Chen Tianze heard Lu Tao's words and commented with his back: "Feng Letian has really paved the way for Wu Zhantao a lot!"

"Is this kid sick? Why did he stop him from doing everything?" Xiao Ji asked in confusion: "Isn't he finished this way?"

"This is the reason." Chen Tianze explained in a low voice: "If Wu Zhantao falls down, he will confess everything and be sentenced to death directly, then Lu Tao's group of people who directly shoot and prepare to kill people will not be sentenced lightly. The organization staff will at least be the same as Wu Zhantao, and the shooting gang below will have to be at least ten years. But if one takes over the matter and takes away the others, many people will be sentenced lightly, and Wu Zhantao will not treat him badly."

"Oh, that's it." Xiaoji nodded in a clear way.

"Also, this Lu Tao may know that he must be sentenced to death. Do you believe it?" Chen Tianze turned his head and asked.

"Why do you say that?"

"... People are selfish. If there is a little chance, he will not take the initiative to take the blame on himself, waiting to be sentenced to death. He must have other things on him and knows he can't get out," Chen Tianze responded very affirmatively: "That's why he took care of Wu Zhantao."

"Look, let's talk about it!" Xiaoji nodded when he heard the sound.

Just as the two were chatting, the staff of the procuratorate then asked Lu Tao: "Have you ever hurt Ye Ziliang with a knife after being held hostage by Wu Zhantao?"

"Yes, I stabbed him."

"On April 5, 1998, did you kill the victim Wang Dong due to an economic dispute in Tongl Li Village?" The staff of the procuratorate asked again.

After hearing this, Wu Zhantao frowned unconsciously.

Lu Tao responded with sweat on his forehead: "Yes, I accidentally killed Wang Dong."

"Previous Judge, I think Lu Tao has a motive to cover up Wu Zhantao's criminal behavior and argue." The staff of the procuratorate shouted.

"The court will adopt your opinion as appropriate." The presiding judge nodded with a serious face.

...

Five minutes later, the court will be adjourned.

"brush!"

When Qi Run was brought out by the bailiff, he raised his big mother's finger at Wu Zhantao and mocked: "This lawsuit is a big deal! It seems that Feng Letian really treats you as a character, and he spends a lot of money to save you!"

Wu Zhantao didn't say anything and followed the bailiff out.

"Damn, why haven't Ozawa come yet?" Erpang muttered while drinking mineral water.

"Bang!"

Chen Tianze slapped Erpang in the head from behind and cursed: "Your little water is quite sweet!"

"Fuck, are you all here?" Erpang replied with a grin.

"You bastards, I won't go to pick you up after I'm out of prison." Chen Tianze pointed at everyone and cursed: "You wait for me to slow down for two days, and I'll finish your get out of class!"

"Ha ha!"

Everyone laughed at the sound.

"Hey, Xiaoze," Tan Feng asked Chen Tianze with his neck tilted, "How long do you think Wu Zhantao will be sentenced?"

Chen Tianze was stunned and asked back, "What do you think?"

...

In the iron railing of the waiting room, Lu Tao whispered to Wu Zhantao: "Brother, brother...!"

Wu Zhantao raised his head expressionlessly.

"...If the verdict is announced in court today, I will have ten days left." Lu Tao shouted in a trembling voice: "Don't forget what I promised me."

"I can't forget it!" Wu Zhantao replied in a trembling voice.

...

In the trial hall, on the last row of empty seats, Lao Ye held his son's portrait and looked up at the four "fair and strict" words on the presiding judge's head, and murmured softly: "Son, I'll wait for the result with you!"
