Chapter 128

Hiss—

Xu Qiong couldn't help but draw in a sharp breath of cold air.

This kid—was lying about the three months too?

The real time frame might be even longer!?

He looked at Fang Hao before him with some disbelief.

Ding He, watching from the side, saw this scene and his expression changed as well.

"Suspect Fang Hao, let me reiterate."

"Anything you say now will be used as evidence in court."

"If you refuse to cooperate with our review right now, it will only make your situation worse."

"Telling the truth is your only way out."

"Tell us everything you know now, and seek leniency—it'll be good for both of us!"

"I'll ask you one more time!"

"When did you learn of the existence of Cao Cao's tomb!"

On the screen.

Fang Hao, who had the camera pointed at him, looked somewhat stunned.

It seemed even he hadn't expected this answer to be seen through so easily.

Watching Fang Hao's stunned expression.

The audience couldn't help but burst out laughing.

So you finally have your day too!

Isn't it your turn to be on the receiving end now?

After a brief hesitation.

Fang Hao, feeling a bit guilty, gave a new answer:

"Uh… actually it wasn't three months."

"That, um…"

"My knowledge of Cao Cao's tomb is indeed a bit earlier than a normal person's."

"It's actually… ahem, ahem…"

"It's actually three years."

The moment this answer came out.

Whether it was the two team leaders or the task force members observing the hearing on the side.

At this moment, none of them could help but draw in a sharp breath of cold air.

Good lord.

No wonder his basement was filled with so many priceless cultural relics!

Turns out as early as several years ago.

He had already known all of this!

So over these past few years, he'd been constantly making arrangements and secretly plotting.

That's how his home could afford maintenance equipment worth over a million.

And during the three years after that.

Fang Hao had probably gone to the tomb more than once, extracting massive profits from it.

And those so-called delivery guy and electrician…

Were probably just fake identities he created to throw people off the scent.

Everything added up now.

Thinking of this.

Team Leader Xu and Deputy Team Leader Ding exchanged a glance and both nodded in agreement.

They were quite satisfied with this answer.

Until…

Beep beep beep—

The shrill alert sounded again.

On the screen, the same three characters were still displayed.

【Not Passed】

At this moment.

The interrogation room fell silent.

Only the sharp gazes of the three people locking eyes with each other remained.

Looking at Fang Hao before them.

On the faces of Team Leader Xu and Deputy Team Leader Ding, expressions of horror and shock appeared.

Heavens…

Fang Hao had known about this Cao Cao's tomb for longer than three years!?

Their expressions turned ugly.

Such a long stretch of time was enough for Fang Hao to have orchestrated many things.

Some of the cultural relics from Cao Cao's tomb might have already been shipped overseas!

And just as the two of them were shaken and felt deeply troubled.

Fang Hao, now aware he had lied, spoke up once more.

Before the camera.

He offered an awkward smile.

"Uh... I was just trying to liven things up earlier. After all, I was curious about the effects of the lie detector and such."

"Actually, that thing..."

"I actually, ahem, ahem, ahem... have known about Cao Cao's tomb since I was a child."

"After all, it is the mausoleum of my ancestor; I visit to pay respects every year and such."

"As his descendant."

"I think it is quite normal, quite logical, to know about his tomb."

Silence fell over the scene once again.

After Fang Hao uttered this typical outrageous claim.

Everyone's mouths twitched.

What time is this...

Ding He was furious!

What time is this, and you're still joking around with me here!?

Especially if, at the beginning, Fang Hao's acting was at least passable.

Then at this moment, putting aside everything else.

Just from his expression, one could see Fang Hao was bragging.

Ding He had long been enduring this humiliation on the level of lies.

Now he finally snapped.

Within the frame.

He slammed his hand heavily on the table.

Bang!

Ding He stood up directly, pointing at Fang Hao and scolding angrily:

"Fang Hao! I warn you!"

"This is the Gongan Bureau! This is not a place for you to joke around!"

"You come to this place and still think it's fun, is that it!?"

"Next, you will face the solemn judgment of the law!"

"If you say such absurd, speechless lies to me again, I..."

"I... Huh? Hey, this..."
