Chapter 106: I probably remembered it wrong

At this very moment,

under the whispering of this economic and financial group leader,

even the face of Deputy Commander Kong in front of the camera became much more serious than usual.

His face changed.

And then he took the bill from the other party and looked at Fang Hao at this moment:

"Our special task force mobilized tens of thousands of agency comrades to complete the action of arresting the Heishan group."

"And just to arrest you and these underlings of yours,"

"a special task force of more than four hundred people was established."

"They are all elites from all over the country, technology, finance, smuggling, fraud..."

"Every case has capable people who can deal with it."

"Do you really think we can't find out the tricks you played on the bills?"

"In the large amount of flow you provided,"

"at least more than 5 billion in funds were faked by you and disappeared silently."

"Hidden by you in a place only you know."

"You are telling me now that you are an innocent undercover agent."

"Then may I ask you: Fang Hao, where did these 5 billion in funds go?"

Deputy Commander Kong’s words were resonant.

He directly shocked everyone at the scene.

A large sum of money actually disappeared silently!?

Was it... embezzled by Fang Hao!?

At this moment,

many people’s faces changed when they looked at Fang Hao.

This guy...

how deep his city is!

Everyone’s expression when looking at Fang Hao was replaced by vigilance and shock.

He seemed loyal and selfless, handing over all the fund accounts.

He seemed to be cooperating with everyone very much.

However, under this seemingly cooperative action,

he was hiding his own unknown little moves.

If it weren't for the financial case expert at the scene who saw some flaws,

I’m afraid Fang Hao really would have muddled through!

Heaven knows what Fang Hao used these 5 billion in funds for?

Does he have other plans that he hasn't revealed?

An escape plan or bribery?

What exactly does Fang Hao want to do with these 5 billion!?

However, facing Deputy Commander Kong’s questioning,

rarely...

at this moment, a complex expression appeared on Fang Hao’s face.

His expression showed some panic and hesitation.

It seemed he suddenly thought of something extremely important.

At this moment in front of the camera,

the audience saw Fang Hao’s flustered appearance for the first time.

His eyes were dodging Deputy Commander Kong’s gaze.

And then he lowered his head, seemingly thinking of a reply on the spot:

"I... that..."

"I might have remembered it wrong occasionally, maybe this money was spent in other aspects."

"You also know..."

"I am not a professional accountant after all, it’s normal to calculate an account wrong."

At this moment,

such a clumsy defense appeared,

even the audience behind the screen...

Everyone could sense Fang Hao’s panic.

Clearly.

He obviously knew about the flow of these five hundred million in funds.

But under these circumstances.

Fang Hao had rarely chosen to bite the bullet and conceal the truth!

The moment they saw Fang Hao’s panic.

The audience also felt a sense of bewilderment.

Evil, after all, cannot suppress righteousness.

As the dignified Black Dragon boss of Heishan.

When facing police interrogation...

To think he would be found out so quickly, his inner defenses crumbling bit by bit.

On camera.

Deputy Commander Kong sighed deeply, looking at Fang Hao before him:

"Fang Hao, you were once an undercover agent yourself, and you are familiar with police procedures."

"I think... you should understand my feelings right now."

"As the controller of the Heishan organization, the accounts and funds you handed over exceed one hundred billion..."

"Adding up all your other assets, it is definitely more than just that."

"They told me that the evidence for all other aspects here is without issue."

"This shows that you still possess a conscience."

"The only thing you’ve tampered with is this mere five billion in funds..."

"You are a descendant of Cao Cao."

"Any random heirloom passed down from your ancestors is worth far more than five hundred million."

"What exactly are you worried about?"

"Tell us the whereabouts of these five billion, and I, along with everyone here..."

"Can still conclude that you are sincerely repentant, and treat your little stunt... as if it never happened."

A look of pity appeared on Deputy Commander Kong’s face.

That a talent like Fang Hao had reached this point certainly made him feel regret.

After all, he had been brought up by Zhang Zhaoguang, so he could be considered half a junior fellow apprentice.

Deputy Commander Kong could not bear for Fang Hao to change the nature of the entire case over a mere five billion.

If the evidence provided was entirely true.

That would count as cooperating with the investigation.

Even if the crimes were extremely grave.

A cooperating criminal has a high probability of avoiding the firing squad.

But if the evidence provided contained intentional misleading or concealment.

Then the nature of the case would be completely different.

If Fang Hao, already in such deep water, still chose to face heavier punishment...

What he might face...

Would truly be nothing but the firing squad.

Seeing this scene, the audience also broke into a cold sweat for Fang Hao.

To survive, he had not reached this point easily.

Everyone had already shown this attitude to protect Fang Hao.

Don't go creating complications at this critical moment!

[Speak up! That five billion is nothing to you!]

[Damn it, I’m dying of anxiety! Why is Fang Hao being so wishy-washy at a time like this!]

[This evidence is deadly; it could very well decide whether Fang Hao lives or dies!]

[Just say it! Why bother for a mere five billion!?]

[Damn... as our dignified Heishan boss, is there any need to hesitate over this little bit of capital!?]

[Are you crazy!? Speak up, you jerk!]

What does it mean when the emperor isn't anxious, but the eunuchs are?

At this moment, across the screen.

Watching Fang Hao’s conflicted and hesitant expression.

The audience wished they could grow a mouth on their own bodies to say it for him.

No one expected it.

That Fang Hao, who could control over a hundred billion in assets.

And shake an economic power of over a trillion.

Would be so hesitant and tight-lipped over the whereabouts of a mere five billion.

Even at the end, he was unwilling to reveal the location of that money.

His face showed hesitation, as if he were caught in a dilemma.

Deputy Commander Kong stared at him fixedly.

Patiently waiting for him for a full three minutes.

One hundred and eighty seconds.

Everyone watched Fang Hao’s conflicted appearance.

Yet in the end...

Fang Hao on camera sighed.

He finally revealed a resolute expression, as if he had made some kind of decision.

"I'm sorry..."
