Just as Shen Taian was meeting with Councillor Kong, An Rushong was checking the background data of the server in his office in the NGN company building.

The hottest topic on the Internet these days is naturally the video of "Kim Woo-dong's sexual assault scandal". This video was not censored at first, and the clarity was relatively high, so many people downloaded it as a pornographic film. However, the videos that were circulated in various media later were all censored, but Kim Woo-dong's face was kept very clear.

As this video went viral, the NGN software where the video first appeared also became famous overnight. Even when the newspapers published this news, they would say that the video first appeared in a chat group of a certain chat software. After all, the whistleblower sent the video to more than 40 groups at once, and this process itself is quite interesting news.

The exposure this incident brought to NGN software was much greater than the effect of some advertising. Many people who were interested in the software downloaded and registered NGN software. From the background, in just two days, the number of registered users of NGN software exceeded 200,000. In An Rusong's opinion, this result was already very good.

Of course, An Rushong was well aware that exposing the scandalous video about Jin Yudong in the NGN chat group was a huge risk in itself. Although there had been no movement from either the police or the Supreme Prosecutor's Office in the past two days, what was to come would come, and what could not be avoided could not be avoided. He had already been mentally prepared.

As if to confirm his idea, just when An Rusong had just finished looking at the background data and had not yet closed the interface, a "hissing" noise came from the intercom on his desk, followed by two "beep" sounds, and a young man's voice came from it: "Brother Rusong, there is a black dog coming, it should be heading for the company."

An Rusong picked up the intercom, pressed the call button, and said, "Got it."

After saying this, he turned off the intercom, locked it in the drawer, then took out his cell phone and dialed a number.

After a while, the call was connected and an English greeting came from the other end.

After An Rusong had a brief chat with the other party, he said, "Thomson, as we agreed before, I need your help now. If you can come immediately, I am willing to pay the highest standard."

The person on the other end of the line was Attorney Thomson of Baker McKenzie. After sending the video to the NGN chat group two days ago, An Rusong contacted Attorney Thomson and reached an agreement with him on temporary employment. He was willing to pay the other party's legal counsel fees at the highest standard, but on the premise that the other party must come as soon as possible when he needed them.

On the phone, Thomson gladly accepted An Rushong's invitation. He promised to arrive at NGN Company within 20 minutes and told An Rushong not to say anything to the other party before he arrived. He only needed to give his business card to the prosecutor in charge and let the other party talk to him.

As soon as the call with Thomson ended, An Rusong saw a group of people rushing in from the entrance of the office area. The leader was a middle-aged man wearing a black suit and a black tie, and behind him were three or four other people in black suits, as well as a few people wearing vests with the word "KISA" on them. The rest were all police officers.

The middle-aged man in a black suit walking in front is naturally the prosecutor leading the team, and the three or four men in black suits following behind him should be his assistants.

Walking into the office area, the middle-aged prosecutor who led the team raised his ID card and said loudly, "Everyone, don't move. I am Bai Gaoming, a prosecutor from the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office. Now, I suspect that NGN is related to a cyber crime. I will seal up all the PCs and servers here."

The dozen or so people in the office area were all old Russians. They knew English but not Korean. Therefore, the prosecutor named Bai Gaoming's words were just in vain. The dozen or so old Russians at their workstations looked at him stupidly, not knowing what he was doing.

Bai Gaoming obviously knew that these people were not the heads of the company, so he ignored them. After announcing his identity, he waved his hand and signaled the people who came with him to start working.

The so-called work is naturally to confiscate all PCs and even the company's servers. But in general, even if it is an investigation by the procuratorate, they will not take away all the PCs or servers. They should only take away the hard drives.

However, today, Prosecutor Bai Gaoming seemed to have come with some personal grudge. The order he gave to his subordinates was to take away all PC devices and even the servers.

Following his order, the people who followed in began to drive away the Russians from their workstations.

The Russians didn't understand what was going on and looked towards An Rushong's office in surprise.

An Rushong stayed in his office the whole time and had no intention of going out. He didn't need to conflict with the other party now, just delaying time would be enough.

However, just because he doesn't go out doesn't mean that the other party won't come in to find her.

As the office area became chaotic, Prosecutor Bai Gaoming turned his head and looked at An Rusong's office. The blinds in the office were not closed, and the situation inside could be seen from the office area.

At this moment, An Rushong had left his chair. He was standing in front of the desk, with half of his buttocks resting on the edge of the desk. He was lowering his head and using a lighter to light the cigarette between his lips.

As if he sensed the prosecutor's gaze, he raised his head and looked outside. His eyes met with those of prosecutor Bai Gaoming. He held the cigarette between his fingers, grinned, and waved at him. As if he sensed the other party's contempt, Bai Gaoming, who had been somewhat complacent, had a gloomy face. Then, he took a big step and walked straight towards the office.

An Rushong sat at the table without moving, waiting for the other party to come in.

"Are you An Rushong?" Bai Gaoming pushed the office door open, stood at the door, glanced at An Rushong, and asked in a deep voice.

"If you are looking for An Rushong, the chairman of this NGN company, then it should be me," An Rushong took a puff of cigarette and said slowly.

"I'm Bai Gaoming, a prosecutor from the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office. Now, I suspect that you are involved in several violent injury incidents and I need you to go back to assist in the investigation," Bai Gaoming said, showing his name badge.

The smile on An Rushong's face remained unchanged, but he had no intention of moving.

"Come with us," Bai Gaoming urged impatiently.

"Mr. Prosecutor, have you forgotten to declare one of my rights?" An Rushong asked, holding a cigarette between the fingers of his right hand and taking a business card from the table with his left hand, gently turning it in his hand.

Hearing what he said, Bai Gaoming nodded and said, "Mr. An Rusong, do you need a lawyer to assist in the investigation?"

"Yes," An Rusong replied with a smile, "Also, I have contacted my lawyer, and he is on his way. My lawyer told me that I have the right to request that he accompany me during the investigation. If he is not present, I can remain silent and refuse to cooperate with any request you make."

The corners of Bai Gaoming's lips twitched, but he didn't look angry. He nodded, turned around and wanted to walk out of the office.

"Also, Mr. Prosecutor," An Rusong glanced at the office area outside and said, "My lawyer asked me to remind you that if you want to conduct any search of my company, you'd better have a formal search warrant. If you don't have a search warrant issued by the court, then my lawyer may make you lose your job."

This time, a trace of anger finally flashed across Bai Gaoming's face. He had almost walked out of the office door, but turned around again and stood at the door, looking at An Rushong with a sinister expression.

An Rushong looked at him indifferently, with no fear in his eyes.

To be honest, it was not An Rushong who wanted to challenge Prosecutor Bai Gaoming. After all, he also knew how powerful prosecutors were in South Korea.

But the problem is that he is very clear about one thing, that is, no matter who the prosecutor who brought people here today is, he will definitely not show mercy to his men.

The videos he distributed through the NGN chat group were encrypted, so even if others searched the entire NGN company, they would not be able to find him.

But the key point is that it is not difficult for people to find out his relationship with the Zhao Jingsheng brothers. It is also not difficult to find out that the Zhao Jingsheng brothers own shares in NGN and hold positions here.

In other words, with his relationship with the Zhao Jingsheng brothers, he couldn't avoid this trouble. No one came to trouble him, not because they didn't know he existed, but because they couldn't take care of a small fry like him for the time being.

At the beginning, when sorting out the things in the basement, An Rushong's initial thought was just to hope to find something from the diaries and account books kept by Zhao Jingsheng that could threaten Shen Taian and force the old man to rescue Zhao Jingsheng and his brother.

As for what to do after rescuing the Zhao Jingsheng brothers, he didn't think too much about it. At worst, he could just flee from South Korea. He didn't have any sentimental feelings for this country anyway. Moreover, the plans he had in his mind didn't have to be completed by staying in South Korea.

However, in the following two days, he sorted out the CDs while paying attention to the development of the situation.

He noticed Kim Woo-dong's testimony against Councillors Liu and Kong, and the news that Liu Taimin, chairman of the Daemusan Group, apologized to the public for the disgraceful role his son Liu Taiming played in the "12093 Ministry of National Defense Procurement Bribery Case."
