Before Zheng Honghu announced the results, Lin Yu's confidence had its reasons.
Up to that point, his performance was neck and neck with Bai Xiaosheng.
The key lay in the additional evidence gathered in the investigation of Lu Zhixin and Zhao Beiqing.
That is, from Li Qiushan and his group and the physical evidence they held!
At the moment, Bai Xiaosheng had the testimonial evidence, while he had the physical evidence.
But actually, there is a hierarchy between testimonial and physical evidence.
If the physical evidence is authentic, its evidentiary power is quite high.
Whereas testimonial evidence, strictly speaking, should be the testimony of witnesses and needs corroboration from other evidence to be accepted.
Generally, mere testimonial evidence is insufficient to ascertain its authenticity and validity!
Traditionally, where physical and testimonial evidence conflict, physical evidence takes precedence over testimonial evidence!
