Chapter 340: See you in court, Cheng Jin Yan Wu Malia.
Chapter 340
Before the court session,
Wuma Chi sent someone to inquire and found out that the girl he had violated did not heed his warnings and threats and had actually hired a lawyer.
This lawyer was clearly no ordinary lawyer, able to use his connections in Wuma Chi's turf to forcibly bring him to court.
When Wuma Chi investigated, he discovered that this lawyer was the one who had killed the son of his fourth uncle and later captured his sister Wuma Liya in Southeast Asia, crippling one of her arms.
Clearly no simple character.
Wuma Chi seriously suspected that Cheng Jinyan had not taken up this lawsuit for the victim, but was targeting the Wuma Family instead.
In the courtroom,
Wuma Chi categorically denied knowing the victim, and even produced two witnesses to prove that he was at home when the incident occurred.
He had a solid alibi.
Wuma Chi was eloquent, not only throwing the girl a extremely aggressive, beastly smile as if relishing her tender body,
But also threatening and provoking Cheng Jinyan with his eyes.
Regardless if the other party had evidence or not, even if they did, Wuma Chi was fearless since he was the law here.
Faced with the verbose Wuma Chi, the victimized girl could not defend herself apart from being fearful.
"You said I raped you, then tell everyone how exactly did I rape you? What positions did we use? Did you moan? Was it pleasurable? Give everyone the details, hahaha."
Wuma Chi was extremely arrogant, his words almost causing the girl to have a mental breakdown as her parents got so angry they wanted to rush up and hit him.
Cheng Jinyan wore an immaculate suit, standing straight and proper.
"You said you don't know my client, but the doctor detected your DNA inside my client's body."
Wuma Chi scoffed. "What joke are you telling?"
The girl had gone to the police station to report the crime earlier, and requested to do an examination of her injuries. But Wuma Chi rushed over and forcibly washed her before anything could be collected.
The evidence had long been destroyed.
Yet Cheng Jinyan took out a test report in front of everyone as court evidence, handing it to the judge.
Not only was Wuma Chi dumbfounded, even the girl's parents were shocked because they did not go for any test.
Where did the test report come from?
Naturally, this was forged by Cheng Jinyan.
In dealing with such cases, Cheng Jinyan never bothered to go through proper channels but had countless underhanded ways to prove the defendant guilty.
Cheng Jinyan then took out a few more reports. "These are the injury reports of my client and her parents, on the 20th..."
"I have a witness who can testify seeing Wuma Chi forcibly dragging my client into his car at 9pm on the 20th to commit his crime."
This witness was fake too of course.
"I also have two witnesses who can prove Wuma Chi assaulted and threatened my client and her parents at the police station."
Right after, two witnesses with bruised and swollen faces appeared.
They were from the police station, one of them even the deputy chief.
These witnesses were real, but they did not appear in court willingly. They were hung up and beaten badly by Cheng Jinyan last night before having a gun forced to their heads, forced to promise to testify.
Seeing the two policemen, Wuma Chi started panicking. Hearing them actually accusing him, Wuma Chi became enraged and wanted to rush forward to beat them up, held back by others.
The two policemen were scared to death. They did not want this either, but Cheng Jinyan had their wives and children.
In Cheng Jinyan's creed, when justice cannot be served, he chooses to fight evil with evil.
Wuma Chi: "This is slander! That damn test report is fake, I did not do it! I want a lawyer."
He glared fiercely at the judge.
Fearing the Wuma Family's power, the judge had no choice but to hurriedly leave court for an "intermission".
If not for the Cheng Family's backing during this recess, Wuma Chi might have just killed Cheng Jinyan right there and then.
Seeing that Cheng Jinyan was hard to deal with, Wuma Chi sent people to find a lawyer and informed his fourth uncle Wuma You.
Court resumed in the afternoon.
With a lawyer and a judge biased towards him, Wuma Chi thought he could turn the tables.
Yet he did not expect his lawyer to be no different from a mute before Cheng Jinyan, truly the difference between big shot lawyer and newbie.
Among the observers sat one more person -
Wuma Liya watched expressionlessly at the well-dressed, relaxed and eloquent Cheng Jinyan dominating the other lawyer, leaving him speechless and unable to interject. The court had become completely his turf.
Noticing Wuma Liya, Cheng Jinyan also glanced towards the seats, their gaze meeting briefly as he continued his verbal onslaught without pause.
Cheng Jinyan quickly shifted his eyes away.
He told the judge: "I have more than one victim. They are all willing to testify how Wuma Chi violated them."
Wuma Chi was a local bully who knew how many innocent girls he had harmed. Cheng Jinyan sent people to gather some of them to testify.
Soon, Wuma Chi was accused by multiple victims.
Cheng Jinyan listed Wuma Chi's crimes one by one, not just rape but even murdering the victims' families to threaten them.
Wuma Liya watched him cite those crimes, still expressionless, not a shred of sympathy or pity for the victims in her eyes.
Finally, Cheng Jinyan requested the judge to sentence Wuma Chi to life imprisonment.
The jury kept silent, no one dared make a sound.
The judge who had been threatened by Wuma Chi's glare earlier, once again backed down and hastily left court for another "intermission".
Cheng Jinyan knew it would not be so easy. He remained patient.
Before long though, news came that Wuma Chi had suddenly fallen critically ill and was sent to hospital for emergency treatment.
The trial was forcefully put on hold.
Leaving the court, Cheng Jinyan got into his car, coincidentally at the same time Wuma Liya had just stepped out from the court building, standing at the top of the steps watching him.
Seemingly unaware, Cheng Jinyan got in and closed the door.
But just as his car started moving, Cheng Jinyan suddenly turned and glanced back at Wuma Liya through the window.
In his hotel room that night, Cheng Jinyan received a call from his subordinate, rushing to the victim's residence but was a step too late.
The entire family of three had been brutally murdered.
Even the men Cheng Jinyan sent to protect them were dead, two of them.
The killers had even brazenly left the murder weapon at the scene - a short dagger.
When Cheng Jinyan returned to his hotel, his room had been doused in blood. The walls, the floor, the bed were covered in the blood of the victim's family and his two subordinates,
showing just how powerful the Wuma Family was in the area.
On the other hand, Wuma Chi was at home without a care in the world, popping champagne and fooling around with women and friends, celebrating uproariously.
The high Wuma Chi even started doing drugs, adrenaline overdrive, heavy metal blasting, filling the entire villa with his maniacal laughter.
Drinking non-stop while mocking Cheng Jinyan, imitating his mannerisms in court, making jokes about him with his friends.
Unaware that Cheng Jinyan was at his bedroom waiting for him...
