Chapter 1805 - Something interesting
They didn’t expect the sensational case would have such a great turnaround…
The second son of the Ye family, Ye Shao’an, didn’t die in the hands of Ye Shaoting and Ye Mufan. Not only was he murdered by killers hired by the Ye family’s steward, Huang Mingkun, and Liang Meixuan, but those two even framed Ye Shaoting and Ye Mufan for it…
Wasn’t this too terrifying? The madam of the Ye family actually had an illicit affair with their steward…
“Sir Judge, I also have some videos and pictures here to submit as evidence.”
Zhang He walked forward and submitted the video and photos that Third Elder and Big Dipper shot previously.
The evidence contained multiple room renting records at this hotel from Liang Meixuan and Steward Huang Mingkun, and videos and photos of them in the room.
“All of these can’t serve as direct evidence,” the judge said after a long while.
Zhang He smiled. “We naturally knew this, but we also have additional evidence that can directly prove Ye Mufan and Ye Shaoting weren’t the true culprits behind Ye Shao’an’s murder.”
Zhang He immediately listed several pieces of evidence that proved Ye Mufan and Ye Shaoting’s innocence and their lack of motive for killing Ye Shao’an.
He started playing Ye Mufan and Ye Shaoting’s video that night.
This video originated from the Ye residence’s surveillance camera.
“Everyone knows that this video is how we directly determined Ye Mufan and Ye Shaoting to be the murderers initially, but there’s a very illogical area.”
Zhang He swept his gaze across the room and slowly said, “First of all, in the video, Ye Mufan and Ye Shaoting did indeed appear in the Ye residence and entered Ye Shao’an’s room. However, sometime later, they appeared again in the video with a murder weapon in hand…
“That is how it appears… but everyone, please pay attention! The Ye Mufan and Ye Shaoting you see holding a murder weapon have their backs facing the camera, and aside from wearing the same clothes, there isn’t any direct evidence that proves the people holding the murder weapon are them.”
“Hmph, what a joke! Even their clothes are identical—so what if they didn’t show their faces?” Liang Meixuan came back to life after learning that the recording couldn’t be used as evidence and snorted at the lawyer.
Zhang He turned to Liang Meixuan. “Even your recording can’t be used as evidence, so could this be used as evidence simply because the second group is wearing identical outfits? Ms. Liang, your logic is truly admirable.”
You…” Liang Meixuan looked at Zhang He, somewhat at a loss for words. “The murder weapon contained their fingerprints!”
“Fingerprints?” Zhang He smiled aloofly. “It’s truly too simple to obtain something like fingerprints. However, while we’re on the topic of fingerprints, there is something more interesting…
“Normal people might not know about this, but I have to emphasize something: After the weapon was thrown into the Ye residence’s pond, it was soaked for at least 10 hours, so even if you could obtain Ye Mufan and Ye Shaoting’s fingerprints, they would be faint… However, the fingerprints that the forensic scientists extracted were very intact and whole… Is this logical?”
Everyone in the courtroom turned to look at each other blankly, oddly quiet.
“There’s also one more thing that I find more absurd…”
