"There is no information about the victim on this knife. The defense believes that it has nothing to do with this case. Moreover, at that time, this type of kitchen knives could be seen everywhere." Chi Weiran said.

nonsense!

Twenty years have passed, and I have been dealing with others in the middle of the kitchen knife, so how can I leave any information about the victim?

"This kitchen knife was found from Shang Zaijun's home." Yuan Dan emphasized.

"It can't be proved that every household must have a kitchen knife, and there are many people who have been using it for decades." Chi Weiran said.

"Previous Judge, this is a forensic identification certificate. Judging from the incision of the corpse, the knife used to divide the corpse is this kitchen knife." Yuan Dan retained something, so he presented another piece of evidence.

After Shang Zaijun checked, he did not express his objection. He was a little confused now and could not figure it out. Since the knife was firmly denied by the defense lawyer, what does this appraisal certificate have to do with him.

Unexpectedly, defense lawyer Chi Weiran raised objections again. He believed that even forensic identification may not be accurate. There are many styles of sharp blades that can cause the result of dismemberment of corpses.

"Defense, don't mess around. Are you questioning the forensic's identification level?" Yuan Dan was so angry that his chest was fluttering, and he was about to start cursing.

"The level of forensic doctors is also questionable. Otherwise, Lei would not have been executed by fire back then." Chi Weiran did not give in.

"Previous Judge, the prosecutor applies for witnesses to appear in court to testify!" Yuan Dan raised his hand and said.

"Allowed, what's the name of the witness?" Fang Chaoyang asked.

"Zhang Kanqian!" Yuan Dan replied.

"The witness Zhang Jianqian came to court."

Soon, an old man with a tiger back and a bear waist, with unshaven stubble on his cheeks, was taken to court and stood on the witness stand.

"Please sit down and tell me your name, age and occupation."

"My name is Zhang Kanqian, from Fuyu Village. He is 66 years old this year. He used to be a blacksmith, but now he can't do it anymore. The blacksmith shop has been handed over to his son." The old man sat down and said.

"Witness Zhang Kanqian, according to the laws of our country, witnesses have the obligation to testify truthfully to the court. If they intend to commit perjury or conceal evidence of crime, they must bear legal responsibility. Have you heard it clearly?" Fang Chaoyang said.

"I heard it clearly."

The bailiff brought the guarantee letter, and after Zhang Jianqian signed it, he gave it to the clerk Zhao Fangfang for archiving.

"The prosecutor first asks the witnesses." Fang Chaoyang said.

"Witness Zhang Jianqian, please take a closer look. Did you make this kitchen knife?" Yuan Dan took out the kitchen knife again and the bailiff handed it to Zhang Jianqian to check.

"I created it." Zhang Kanqian confirmed, adding, "There are three horizontal lines on the back of the knife, and I like to leave some marks."

"Is this kitchen knife different from other kitchen knifes you made?" Yuan Dan continued to ask.

"There is no round hole in the lanyard." Zhang Kanqian nodded.

"So, do you remember who this kitchen knife was sold to?"

"It's him, Shang Zaijun." Zhang Kanqian pointed at Shang Zaijun in the dock.

"You're talking nonsense, I don't remember buying kitchen knives in your blacksmith shop. There are all selling kitchen knives everywhere, which is cheaper than yours!" Shang Zaijun immediately denied.

"The kitchen knife I made in my house is the right heat and is very sharp. It is normal to sell it more expensive. Everyone in the village can accept it, but no one has said anything." Zhang Kanqian argued.

"Witness Zhang Kanqian, do you remember when the defendant Shang Zaijun bought a kitchen knife at your house?" The prosecutor Yuan Dan took over the conversation and continued to ask.

"I don't remember the specific time, but he bought it. I want ten yuan, but he only gave it seven yuan because he forgot to get the rope hole." Zhang Kanqian said confidently.

"He falsely accused me of not buying it, but I didn't buy it. It's been so many years since you said it, just as it happened in front of you, who would believe it!" Shang Zaijun shouted, deliberately making handcuffs rustling.

"Defendant, pay attention to your words and deeds." Fang Chaoyang knocked the gavel.

"Previous Judge, the prosecutor has completed the inquiry." Yuan Dan said.

"Does the defense party need to ask for witnesses?" Fang Chaoyang turned to look at the defense seat.

Unexpectedly, Chi Weiran raised his hand and said, "There is a problem with the defense."

Fang Chaoyang nodded, Chi Weiran stared at Zhang Xingqian for ten seconds before speaking: "Witness, according to your statement, you have sold a lot of kitchen knives of this style!"

"I can sell a few pieces every month." Zhang Kanqian did not deny this, and said: "It's not as exquisite as those brands of kitchen knives, but it's very handy to use."

"How do you know that this kitchen knife without rope holes only made this one?" Chi Weiran continued to ask.

Zhang Jianqian was obviously stunned, scratched his head, and explained: "The villagers like to hang the knife to control the water. That time, because I drank too much, I forgot to make a rope hole when I polished it."

"Do you often get drunk?" Chi Weiran seized the opportunity and asked.

"Oppose, the defense's questioning method has nothing to do with the case." Yuan Dan raised his hand and said.

"The objection is invalid, the witness answers the question." Fang Chaoyang said fairly.

"The ironwork is very tiring. I often drink some wine to relieve my fatigue. I don't get drunk much." Zhang Jianqian replied.

"Not many, not only this time. The defense believes that the witness could not be sure of it, and only created this kitchen knife without rope holes." Chi Weiran said.

"I remember this one very clearly that every kitchen knife is to be sold." Zhang Kanqian said.

"Okay, let me ask you again, how do you remember that Qingshang and military bought your kitchen knife for seven yuan. How many banknotes are used for the seven yuan?" Chi Weiran said.

Zhang Jianqian was unhappy when asked, snorted and said, "However, I can remember it so clearly. It's five yuan and two yuan. Later, when I bought things, I found out that five yuan was fake money, which was too scammed."

"How do you confirm that the five-yuan fake money was given to you by Shang Zaijun?" Chi Weiran said.

"Oppose, the defense lawyer is setting a language trap for witnesses." Yuan Dan raised his hand again to protest.

"The objection is invalid, please answer the witness." Fang Chaoyang said.

"We are just doing hard work. How much money can we have in our pocket at that time? Moreover, on the night he bought the knife, I went to buy things, found that it was fake money, and then found his house. As a result, he had left. Seeing that his mother was also very pitiful, I accepted it and didn't take the kitchen knife away." Zhang Kanqian answered very clearly.

"Previous Judge, the defense question has been completed." Chi Weiran's expression was calm. Although it was proved that the knife was used by Shang Zaijun, it could not be proved that this was the key murder weapon.

I have to admit that Chi Weiran's professional level is indeed very high, and he can always find evidence flaws, which also makes this trial debate very ups and downs.

Witness Zhang Kanqian was taken away from the court, and Yuan Dan continued to show evidence. Shang Zaijun's blood type and shoe size were the same as the traces left at the crime scene.

The evidence was obtained before Shang Zaijun, and he denied it again. The blood type was correct, but it had nothing to do with him. He also said that he opened a store himself and was considered a rich man. He was already wearing leather shoes at that time, not the traces of rubber shoes left now.
