With just a few simple words, the camera focused on the character played by Mr. Zhou He.

Zhao Dehan's expression changed slightly, but he continued eating without making a sound.

Xu Fan glanced at Zhao Dehan, then asked softly, "How much?"

His voice was very calm, without any inflection. His eyes were fixed on Mr. Zhou He, but the old man's expression remained calm. The bowl of noodles seemed to smell very delicious.

The staff member behind him said, "The total is 125,630 yuan."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Dehan seemed much more relaxed as he lowered his head and ate his noodles.

Xu Fan, who plays Hou Liangping, picked up a clove of garlic and started peeling it, not forgetting to ask, "Euros or dollars?"

The staff member said, "Huaxia currency."

The simple and direct conversation did not affect Zhao Dehan at all, but Zhao Dehan still raised his head and looked at Hou Liangping, saying, "Comrade, surely you shouldn't not even have this much savings?"

Hou Liangping searched Zhao Dehan's office thoroughly and found several bank cards, but the total amount of money in the cards was only a little over 30,000 yuan, which made him really think that Zhao Dehan was quite cunning.

He couldn't help but laugh and said, "No, no, this amount of money isn't even as much as my family's."

Mr. Zhou He chuckled softly, head bowed, and continued eating his noodles, still holding garlic in his hand.

This detail is beautiful. The key is that Mr. Zhou He made sure to look even better while eating the noodles; he was genuinely eating them.

When Hou Liangping realized that there was really nothing to be found, he frowned. At this moment, Zha'e said again, "Comrade, I think you've made a mistake."

As he spoke, Mr. Zhou He picked up his chopsticks and gestured, saying, “To forge iron, one must be strong oneself. The Party and the people have entrusted me with such an important task. Do you think I can let them down? No, it is precisely because I have strong principles that people often try to mess with me. You must have made a mistake.”

Xu Fan was slightly taken aback, then smiled and said, "Could it be that we really made a mistake, and we've actually found out about the home of a model worker in the fight against corruption?"

After saying that, the two of them couldn't help but laugh.

Whether the laughter conveyed the same meaning or not, Zhao Dehan continued eating with his head lowered, his affectionate expression perfectly captured.

But soon, when Zhao Dehan had almost finished eating his noodles, Hou Liangping, played by Xu Fan, realized that they really couldn't find anything there. So Hou Liangping had no choice but to say to his teammates, "Let's call it a day."

In the shot, Zhao Dehan, eating the last of his noodles, chuckled and said, "Take care, everyone, I won't see you off."

Hou Liangping stayed behind alone and looked at Zhao Dehan, saying, "Director Zhao, are you really not going to see us off?"

Zhao Dehan was taken aback, a bad feeling rising in his heart. He looked at Hou Liangping and frowned, saying, "I haven't finished my noodles or my soup yet."

Hou Liangping chuckled and said, "It's alright, I'll wait for you, until you finish this bowl of noodle soup."

At this moment, Zhao Dehan became restless.

Mr. Zhou He's portrayal of Zhao Dehan's affectionate actions and expressions was so vivid and perfect that it can be described as flawless.

Xu Shan, the executive director, couldn't help but sigh when he saw the two actors' scenes together and witnessed their near-perfect acting skills.

The two of them continued their long conversation without the slightest hesitation, speaking very smoothly.

The two seemed to be chatting and laughing, but each was secretly holding secrets.

As they chatted, Zhao Dehan chuckled, feeling quite confident in some of his ideas, and said, "Alright, alright, I'll take you."

After saying that, he even took a sip of soup, and Zhao Dehan added, "It's a bit cold outside, remember to wear clothes."

After he finished speaking, Xu Shan finally called "cut".

Then, the camera restarts, moving downstairs, switching scenes, and the camera starts again with everyone.

Xu Fan and Zhou He went back and forth, and soon their back-and-forth banter was so intense that their acting was superb.

Finally, Hou Liangping produced a new search warrant and took Zhao Dehan to Zhao Dehan's office.

When Zhao Dehan learned Hou Liangping's true identity downstairs, he began to feel uneasy.

According to the script, Hou Liangping is the youngest director of the anti-corruption bureau, and his strength and ability are very strong.

Even though Zhao Dehan was very confident in himself, he was still a little worried and scared at this moment, so he could only say some polite words, but the result still could not change the second search.

On the way to Zhao Dehan's workplace, Zhao Dehan became increasingly nervous in the car, especially after learning that the person sitting next to him was Hou Liangping, which made him truly uneasy.

However, he still tried to remain calm and composed, saying, "To be honest, I am not very politically conscious because I am timid and afraid of trouble, which is something that everyone in the ministry knows."

The simple sentence spoken by Mr. Zhou He seemed to perfectly capture the psychology of an ordinary person.

It was completely different from the relaxed and cheerful atmosphere we had while eating noodles earlier; it was a completely different feeling.

Soon, after arriving at Zhao De's office, Xu Fan and the others quickly began searching.

Xu Fan and Zhao Dehan continued their casual conversation.

Xu Fan suddenly asked, "Minister Zhao, may I ask you a question out of curiosity? How do you charge?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Dehan's eyes narrowed slightly, and he stared intently at Xu Fan. He didn't show any emotion, but his expression was quite clear. Then, he chuckled and said, "Charge? What fee? We're serving the people."

Hou Liangping smiled and nodded, saying, "I was just asking."

Zhao Dehan couldn't help but shake his head. The conversation between the two seemed casual, but it was actually a game of strategy.

The two continued chatting while the others continued their search.

Xu Fan talked about Zhao Dehan's predecessor, his pricing, some of his past deeds, his corruption, and so on.

Zhao Dehan also shared his impressions and the outcome of the matter, and the two seemed to be having a very relaxed conversation.

Finally, someone found a few bank cards.

Xu Fan laid the cards out one by one on the table, then looked at Zhao Dehan and said, "Director Zhao, let's talk about these."

Zhao Dehan replied without hesitation and without any hesitation, "This is my salary card, this is my bonus card, and this is the card for the holiday allowance I received during the Spring Festival."

Xu Fan asked curiously, "Hey, what's this 'national fee'?"

Zhao Dehan said with a smile, "Everyone in the department receives a holiday bonus."

Xu Fan had someone check the bank card and mentioned that Zhao Dehan's ex-girlfriend had hidden millions in this kind of holiday money card. Zhao Dehan laughed and said, "You guys, I only have this little bit of private money, and you've managed to get it all out of me."

The two chatted back and forth and quickly found out the answer.

Xu Fan asked curiously, "How much?"

The employee said, "A total of 30,500."

Even Xu Fan was taken aback, not expecting so little, and became even more certain that Zhao Dehan was not easy to deal with.

Zhao Dehan couldn't help but laugh, and Xu Fan asked in confusion, "Only 30,000?"

The answer was indeed quite obvious, but Xu Fan knew he still needed to search.

Xu Fan found the locker.

Then I kept searching, but no matter how many times I searched, I only found a bottle of Moutai liquor and nothing else.

Looking at Hou Liangping, who couldn't find anything, Zhao Dehan looked at him with disdain and provocatively questioned him loudly, even threatening to sue him for framing him.

At this moment, Hou Liangping finally stopped smiling at Zhao Dehan and confidently declared that he had never made a mistake in his twenty years of handling cases.

Faced with Zhao Dehan's aggressive questioning, Hou Liangping changed the subject and brought up the project that Ding Yizhen had asked Zhao Dehan to approve. Zhao Dehan's eyes began to glaze over, and his tone became noticeably weaker. He only casually mentioned that Ding Yizhen's application materials lacked environmental protection materials. He suddenly realized that Ding Yizhen might be in trouble and immediately declared that Ding Yizhen was framing him.

This time, Zhao Dehan was truly enraged.

But along with the anger, there was also a sense of lingering fear and helplessness.

His inner anxiety was quite evident, but he still tried to appear calm.

Zhao Dehan remained silent, but Xu Fan continued searching.

But as the performance went on, Zhao Dehan's eyes clearly showed tension and worry.

This was especially evident in Mr. Zhou He's impeccable acting skills. He stared at Xu Fan angrily and said, "I say, Director Hou, are you guys here tonight to be funny? You haven't found anything. Do you know how much damage this has done to my reputation?"

At this moment, Hou Liangping, played by Xu Fan, didn't hide his anger and said, "Funny? I say, Minister Zhao, are you kidding me? You've been acting all night, playing the role of being honest, fair, and incorruptible. You're acting so seriously, and your acting skills are so good."

An angry remark made Zhao Dehan tense up again, and he said excitedly, "No, what I mean is, tonight, at a time like this, what you're doing is simply playing with my future."

As Zhao Dehan spoke, his hands began to move nervously, and the audience watching the performance were deeply impressed by Mr. Zhou He's acting skills.

From the initial lighthearted conversation to the current tension and helplessness, everything has been so perfect.

Xu Fan didn't explain much, but simply took another search warrant from his subordinate and said, "This place, does it look familiar?"

===Chapter 704 Embezzlement of Two Hundred Million===

Does this place look familiar?

Whether you're familiar with this place or not, the result is already quite obvious.

Zhao Dehan's expression changed abruptly, his eyes filled with fear and helplessness.

At that moment, everyone on set was utterly shocked.

It's because his acting skills were truly superb; Zhou He's expression was absolutely perfect, especially that one moment when his expression became incredibly beautiful.

At this moment, Hou Liangping, played by Xu Fan, smiled slightly, but in reality, his face showed little expression or emotion.

Just then, Xu Fan spoke up again, saying, "Next, I'll show you the grand finale."

Zhao Dehan's expression froze, and he frowned as he asked, "The grand finale? I don't understand what you're saying."

Xu Fan didn't say much, and for a moment, the situation changed again, or rather, it stopped.

The search warrant in Xu Fan's hand was for a residence.

The next scene will be adjusted and filmed at night. In fact, everything we just went through was done with nighttime special effects, but since it was evening and the lights were on in the room, it didn't matter. However, the next scene will be filmed on the street at night.

Moreover, after filming for so long, Xu Fan realized that it was indeed quite late, and many people had not yet eaten. So, he looked at everyone and said with a smile, "Alright, everyone, take a break and have some food. We'll continue after dinner. Once tonight's scenes are finished, our filming for today will be over."

If a two-hour movie has five hundred shots, then a TV series with nearly fifty episodes will have several thousand shots.

Therefore, it's easy to imagine that the filming of a TV series is different in terms of time, manpower, and even in terms of camera equipment, lighting, and set design.

Therefore, Xu Fan didn't expect the filming to end in just two or three days. Although his mood remained heavy, he couldn't help but think of Xia Ziling whenever he was alone.

He had to admit that while everything seemed to be fine, he was actually very clear about many things in his mind, and they had always been there.

He knew she was gone, but he still wished she were here, even if only for a moment.

Everyone went to eat, and Xu Fan stopped and prepared to eat as well.

Grandpa Zhou He suddenly walked over, patted Xu Fan on the shoulder and said, "I can tell you've been in a low mood all day. I heard you have a friend who... I just want to say, please accept my condolences."
