Guan Feng stared at the thing and examined it closely.

Unfortunately, the image resolution was insufficient to capture more details.

This made it difficult for him to determine the properties of the object.

He frowned and said, "Judging from Zheng Gan's appearance, he's very protective of this thing. Let's eat first, and after we finish eating, let's see if there are any large cameras along the way that can capture clearer images, so we can determine exactly what it is."

Huang Lili nodded and said, "Okay."

The group sat down and began to enjoy their meal.

They had all eaten breakfast, and everyone had walked tens of thousands of steps by the end of the morning, so they were all hungry. Even Huang Lili ate an extra chicken leg.

After finishing their meal, the group thanked the owner and then continued their search along the street.

Guan Feng looked at both sides of the street and activated the smart glasses function.

[Initiate search! Search for all large, ultra-high-definition cameras within your line of sight!]

soon!

The smart glasses marked two large cameras.

One is a security camera at the entrance of a large hotel, and the other is a security camera at the entrance of a residential complex.

Guan Feng led the two forward.

The neighborhood is close to each other.

They first conducted an investigation, simply showing their identification to retrieve surveillance footage.

Unfortunately, I couldn't capture it in the photo due to the angle.

They went to the hotel again and presented their identification for review.

Having successfully located Zheng Gan's trail, Guan Feng zoomed in on the details of his hand, revealing the shape of a coin.

Li Xiangdong frowned and asked, "This looks like a coin?"

Guan Feng nodded and said, "It's not just a coin! It's an ancient coin! No wonder Zheng Gan kept it a secret; he wanted to keep it to himself, then sell it for money and leave more wealth for his children."

Huang Lili asked, "What do we do now?"

Guan Feng said, "Copy this video and go back to the construction site immediately to re-interrogate Zheng Gan. Money can be a powerful motivator, and this ancient coin might be the culprit."

Li Xiangdong said, "Okay."

Next.

Li Xiangdong copied the video.

The group took a taxi directly back to the construction site.

Guan Feng asked the project manager to call Zheng Gan.

A second visit to the palace!

Zheng Gan's face showed even more tension than the first time.

Guan Feng's expression was somewhat cold as he asked, "Do you know why we've brought you here so quickly?"

Zheng Gan shook his head and stammered, "I...I don't know."

Guan Feng warned, "Zheng Gan! We've been kind to you because we know how hard it was for you to raise your child, and this is how you repay us? Let me tell you, if we really took this to heart, we could arrest you just for deliberately concealing the truth."

Zheng Gan was startled, his face turning pale as he asked, "I...I..."

Guan Feng said, "Let me tell you, it doesn't stop there. Once they face criminal penalties, it will leave a criminal record. As their immediate family member, no matter how outstanding your child is, they won't be able to take civil service or public institution exams in the future!"

Zheng hurriedly said, "I...I really don't know!"

Guan Feng reminded him, "That ancient coin!"

Zheng Gan's expression changed completely.

He stared at the two men, his face showing hesitation and struggle, before finally sighing and saying, "I...I confess, I...I found an ancient coin, but I didn't steal it, I just picked it up. I...I was thinking of selling it to give the child more money. I really didn't steal it."

Guan Feng cautioned, "You may not know this, but these are all cultural relics, and they will be confiscated if they are excavated."

Zheng Gan shook his head and said, "I...I really don't know."

Guan Feng said, "Let's put those aside for now. First, explain yourself clearly: Where did you find these ancient coins? How many did you find in total? How many people know about this?"

Zheng Gan began to confess.

According to his account, he was an excavator operator, driving excavator number 4. He was at the innermost part of the construction site, near the ancient dam scenic area, when he happened to find two ancient coins embedded in the soil.

He immediately got out of the car and picked it up.

They immediately continued digging and found six more.

Guan Feng asked, "Are there eight in total?"

Zheng Gan nodded and said, "Yes."

Guan Feng asked, "Does anyone else know about this?"

Zheng Gan said, "I...I took out an ancient coin and went to...to the antique street to sell it."

Guan Feng asked, "Which antique street?"

Zheng Gan said, "It's over there, over by the ancient dam."

Guan Feng asked, "Who exactly did you sell it to? How much did you get for it?"

Zheng Gan said, "I sold it to Chen San'er. He said it was some kind of Qian Yuan Tong Bao and gave me 3,000 yuan. He also said that if I had any more, I could have them all. I was afraid he would fool me, so I didn't dare to say I had any more. I was thinking of going to other places to look around on the weekend."

Guan Feng asked, "Is Chen San'er an alias? What's your real name?"

Zheng Gan shook his head and said, "I don't know. I only heard from others that his name is Chen San'er."

Guan Feng noted down the name and asked, "Think carefully, when you sold this ancient coin, did Chen San'er ask you where it came from?"

Zheng Gan nodded and said, "He asked! He kept pressing me for details, but I thought we might find more, so I didn't tell him. However, I let it slip that he asked me why I was all dirty, wondering if I had been in a tomb. He wouldn't dare accept that!"

“I said, how could that be? I did it all on the construction site.”

Guan Feng: "..."

What's the difference between this and telling someone?

He asked, "Go on."

Zheng Gan continued to explain the details.

Ten minutes later.

All the relevant details were presented to the group.

Guan Feng reminded him, "Zheng Gan, considering your good attitude and the difficulty of raising children, we will not pursue your previous concealment of the facts for the time being. However, the ancient coins in question are national cultural relics and you need to return them."

"In addition, you need to cooperate with our investigation and find out the truth as soon as possible. Otherwise, we will settle old scores and new scores together. Don't blame us for being ruthless when you go to jail."
