Chapter 678：

Thinking of this, he couldn't help looking at the high platform.

Then he met a pair of cold golden pupils.

Those eyes were so terrible, their pupils were shining like burning gold.

From the gold, he felt immense pressure, as if a weak beast had encountered a natural enemy.

That look came from the man next to Pharaoh, the exotic "bard".

Oh, bard, what a joke.

At this moment, who is going to tell Mike that it is just a bard who has a handsome face and seduce Pharaoh by this face, and he will definitely hold that person's head against him. The Nile made him sober.

How could such a terrifying look come from a little white face?

That deity-like coercion made Mike extremely convinced that this man is definitely not a mortal.

If it were this person, it would not be impossible to complete such an assassination.

At this time, Mike's heart was already suffering from the other's momentum, and he wanted to look away.

However, it can't be done.

In those golden pupils, there seemed to be some inexplicable power that attracted his attention, making him unable to look away from him. Gradually, under the pressure, Mike's consciousness began to trance.

He felt that he was about to faint completely under this pressure.

There was darkness...

Suddenly, he slapped a spirit to wake himself up.

At this time, he realized that he was still standing on the trial platform, but at this moment, the man did not look at him.

How long has it passed just now?

Macter’s attention was once again placed on the charge of chanting. At this time, he realized that everything just now seemed to be his own illusion, because just now, the guy in front of him hadn’t even finished reciting a single charge. In other words, it only takes a few tens of seconds.

And the look at each other just now should have passed for a long time in his consciousness.

Thinking that the terrible guy was only in his own hallucinations, Mike couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and refocused his attention on the issue of the leak.

Then he suddenly thought of a possibility.

Since it is completely impossible for Pharaoh to obtain his specific charges by means of investigation, there are not many possibilities left.

Could it be that someone betrayed him? Secretly revealed his crime to Pharaoh?

This is possible. After all, the Pharaoh’s assassination is so terrible. Some people who are afraid of life and fear of death betrayed them in panic, wanting to be a witness to the taint, and even attempting to gain "the power of the dragon" in the process of the rise of the Pharaoh. It is not impossible.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for Pharaoh himself to get information on so many specific crimes. Only those of his colleagues and those who personally participated in these corruptions could know all the details so accurately, year after year. The month and the day are well known.

The more Mike thought about it, the more he realized it was possible.

Wow, I said at the beginning that everyone would stand up to Pharaoh and give her a good look, but when you turned around, you betrayed Lao Tzu, and you were wrongful son of man!

So who was it that betrayed him and whispered to Pharaoh secretly?

Another financial officer, his colleague Bata? This is possible. After all, the appointment and removal of officials in the financial department cannot bypass him, but how did he know that I took bribes in private?

So is Hernon? The general who bribed me for a sum of money for the Mexican army, did he confess himself? It is also possible, but he will never know the evidence about my withholding tax.

So is my clerk Heras? After all, every tax I deal with actually goes through his hands. He knows everything about my embezzlement of taxes. After all, he also took a share from it. How dare this insatiable villain dare to expose me? But shouldn't he know other things?

...

The more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and the more he thought about it, the more frightened he became. In the end, he found to his frustration that almost half of the people who had been in trouble with him in the past had secretly betrayed him.

Is it tolerable or unbearable.

Everyone has said that we are in the same boat, but now you all cheat me?

Even though I have been convicted of so many crimes, I am convicted, but none of you should think about it!

After being frustrated, Mike's heart ignited endless anger. He believed that everyone had betrayed him, which made him become reckless in despair.

Just as he was indulging in his emotions, the lucky court document in front of him had stopped reading the charges.

On the high platform, Nitocris' words sounded just right.

"Macter, as a senior financial officer, your charge is now conclusive. Do you have anything to excuse?"

"No...no." Mike's hoarse voice sounded.

These charges are so specific that some details that he did not pay attention to are detailed in the charges, which makes him deeply believe that the other party knows what he did.

Now he has no confidence in the defense, and simply surrendered.

"So, based on your crime, I sentenced you to become a sacrifice to Sobek in the name of Pharaoh (Sobek is a crocodile god, and this punishment is to feed the crocodile). Your property will be confiscated and your family must experience enough Hard labor, clean up your sins, do you have any objections?"

"No...no..." Mike said desperately, and then he knelt on the ground and looked at Nitocris with hope.

"Your majesty, the great Pharaoh, your justice is like the great Anubis, but I pray for your kindness, whether you can spare my family, and as a price, I am willing to provide you with more information about sinners."

"Macter, what are you talking about?"

"Are you crazy?"

Seeing that Mike had the intention to report, the other officials, especially those who were embarrassed with Mike, immediately panicked.

They couldn't think of it, the first Mike to come to power, actually began to think about betraying them to get a reduced sentence.

Item 0839

What good does he get by betraying them?

If Mike can be charged alone, as long as they can retain their official posts, as allies, they can also take care of Mike's family in the future. The so-called hard labor, for these privileged officials, only needs You can use someone else to replace it with a secret operation.

However, they did not expect that their allies actually sold them on stage in order to reduce their sentences for their families.

So they all spoke out in an attempt to stop his behavior.

Unfortunately, at this time Mike was completely unmoved.

He hated the "betrayal" of these people in his heart, and now he has no hope for the care of these "allies".

Those who have betrayed me, join me as Sobek's sacrifice!

At this time, Nitocris finally responded.
