Cai Shengnan had told the court early on that she would plead not guilty in Luo Jialan's case, so she certainly wouldn't agree to Gu Nianzhi's charges.
She stood up from the bench, bowed to the judge, and nodded slightly to the people in the courtroom.
The judge looked at the documents they had presented and asked, "May I call your witnesses?"
The witnesses that Cai Shengnan and the others brought were Auntie Xing and Auntie You. They were still waiting to be called in the room next door.
According to the procedure, Huo Guanchen was the prosecution witness, so he should leave so now. The defense lawyer would call their witnesses in to testify.
However, Cai Shengnan changed her mind at the last minute.
She shook her head and smiled. "No need. I want to interrogate the prosecution's first witness, Mr. General Huo Guanchen."
The judge thought about it for a moment, then nodded. He raised his hand and said, "You may begin."
