Chapter 369: Posturing

On the street below the NGN company, three black Toyota Prados slowly parked on the side of the road.

As the three cars stopped, several burly young men in black suits jumped out of the first and second cars. They looked around for a moment with vigilant expressions, and after making sure it was safe, they moved to the side of the middle car and escorted An Rusong and Jenny, who were sitting in the back seat, out of the car.

When they saw An Rushong appear in person, the reporters who had been waiting downstairs of NGN Company for who knows how long suddenly rushed up and handed microphones and recorders to An Rushong. At the same time, all kinds of questions came to An Rushong's face like a tide.

Fortunately, although Jenny was not very reliable, the bodyguards and agents she brought with her were still very dedicated and responsible. Moreover, these people were obviously experienced and strong. The human wall they formed kept the reporters who gathered around them out, like a breakwater.

Following closely behind An Rushong were Jenny and Luo Minzhi, one on each side, forming the last line of defense to protect An Rushong.

In fact, before returning, both Jenny and Luo Minzhi gave the most reasonable suggestions, which meant that the motorcade should drive directly to the downstairs of NGN Company, right in front of the main entrance. In this way, An Rusong could enter the building as soon as he got out of the car, and could avoid contact with these reporters to the greatest extent.

They were not worried that An Rushong would say something wrong in front of the reporters, but they were worried that someone would sneak in among the reporters and do something bad to him. After all, those who wanted to kill him would definitely not miss such an opportunity.

However, An Rusong finally rejected their proposal. He had been hiding for several days since the scandal was exposed. Although hiding was safe, he could not hide forever. As the initiator of the scandal, he had to face the public, especially in today's situation.

"Mr. An, how did you learn that the US military in South Korea was using the military mail system to sell drugs?"

"Mr. An, do you have any further evidence regarding the drug trafficking scandal involving US troops stationed in South Korea?"

"Mr. An, are you ready to make a positive response to the public?"

"Mr. An..."

In order to let An Rushong hear the questions they asked, the reporters crowded around him shouted almost at the top of their lungs. There was no other way. In recent days, no news was more popular than the drug trafficking of US troops stationed in South Korea. It was not just the whole of South Korea that was paying attention to it, but the whole world was paying attention to it.

However, after NGN published this news in the pop-up window, it did not make any further response. As the chairman of the company, An Rushong also did not accept any form of interviews. Therefore, for these reporters, even if they could get a word from An Rushong, they could make up a so-called exclusive news.

An Rushong ignored everyone. Escorted by many bodyguards, he walked all the way to the entrance of the company. He didn't stop until he walked in and the bodyguards blocked the entrance behind him. After taking a breath, he slowly turned around and faced the many reporters who were crowding outside the door.

"Everyone," he said in a deep voice, scanning the faces of many reporters, "I know you have a lot of questions, but I'm very sorry that I can't answer them one by one here. However, I can briefly answer two questions."

He paused and continued, "Someone just asked me if I have any further evidence regarding drug trafficking by US troops in South Korea. I can clearly answer you here. Yes, I have further evidence, and it is solid and reliable."

hum...

The reporters outside the door made a noise, and at the same time, the flash lights kept flashing. Then, someone started asking questions noisily, hoping that the second question An Rushong answered would be the one they raised.

"Mr. An, aren't you worried about retaliation from those drug dealers?"

Amidst the various questions, a sharp voice shouted.

This was the question that An Rushong hoped someone would ask, and at this moment, someone raised it at the right moment. Although the voice was not so obvious amid the noise around him, An Rushong still heard it accurately.

He looked in the direction where the sound came from and saw a woman in a white suit jacket, squeezing against the door frame of the glass door, struggling to stuff a palm-held tape recorder into the door.

The woman looked to be in her early thirties, with delicate features and fair skin, looking like a young mature woman. However, she looked rather disheveled at this moment, with her lightly made-up face now stained with sweat, her white suit wrinkled, and her black shirt with two buttons ripped open, exposing her snow-white chest muscles and a deep ravine.

"Who is this lady..." An Rusong looked at the woman's face, then looked at her and asked. "I am Li Wanshun, a reporter from JTBC TV station," the woman answered immediately with a surprised expression on her face.

An Rusong nodded and said, "I can answer your question."

He first made a simple comment, then continued, "To be honest, after I received the materials mailed by the informant and confirmed the authenticity of the evidence, I did not consider whether the drug dealers would retaliate against me. The only thing I thought about was to make this scandal public."

He paused and continued, "Of course, I am not afraid of retaliation from drug dealers. After all, in my opinion, when this scandal is exposed to the world, the ones who should be worried should be the criminals, not me as a whistleblower."

"Well, Mr. An," the woman was a little greedy. After An Rushong answered her question, she immediately asked a second question loudly, "Just now we saw people from the Supreme Procuratorate enter your company. Are you already cooperating with the Supreme Procuratorate?"

"Unfortunately, that's not the notice I received," An Ruru liked this question more. He found that this female reporter named Li Wanshun had an unusually sharp brain. It was obvious that her two questions were not asked casually, but were specifically asked to cater to his needs.

"I received a notice that Prosecutor Bian Shiyu of the High-Tech Investigation Division of the Supreme Prosecutors' Office will conduct a search of NGN Company and needs my cooperation in the investigation," An Rusong said with a smile, "Perhaps... my NGN Company has committed a crime worse than drug trafficking."

As he said this, the noise among the reporters grew louder, if for no other reason than because his words revealed too much information.

The first question is whether An Rusong is worried about retaliation, and the second question is that the Supreme Prosecutor's Office is investigating NGN. In the past few days, the scandal of drug trafficking by US troops stationed in South Korea has been making headlines, and the whole world is paying attention to this matter, but the Supreme Prosecutor's Office has remained silent, not to mention launching an investigation into the matter, and not even a single comment.

Now, the Supreme Prosecutor's Office, which has remained silent for several days, has finally taken action. However, it is not investigating the US soldiers who may be involved in drug trafficking, but is investigating the NGN company that exposed the scandal.

The profession that hates chaos the most in this world is probably journalists. The more sensational the news, the more they like it. At present, some journalists have figured out how to write an article, but I don't know if the Supreme Procuratorate will be besieged by the masses after the relevant article is published.

In addition, among the reporters who surrounded NGN, there were also some who disliked An Rusong. After all, NGN previously exposed the scandal of Lee Won-jun, which was equivalent to cooperating with the Blue House. But now, seeing that NGN has exposed the drug trafficking scandal of the US military stationed in South Korea, as the chairman, An Rusong still behaved so tough, these reporters' disgust with him has weakened a lot. Some reporters even thought that An Rusong might not be targeting KBS, nor was he cooperating with the Blue House. He just couldn't tolerate any sand in his eyes and couldn't stand the ugly behavior of Lee Won-jun.

"Thank you, Mr. An." After getting An Rusong's answers to her two questions, Li Wanshun pushed away a reporter who was blocking her side, then bowed to An Rusong and said, "Also, Mr. An, if there is time, could you accept an interview with me?"

An Rusong looked at the other person, then smiled and said to Luo Minzhi who was protecting him, "Mingzhi, give reporter Li a business card of mine."

After he finished speaking, he looked at Li Wanshun again and said with a smile, "Reporter Li, you can contact me later."

"Thank you, Mr. An," Li Wanshun was overjoyed and hurried to thank him again.

Having achieved his goal, An Rushong did not linger in front of the door any longer. He turned around and walked towards the stairs.

"I didn't expect Mr. An to like older women," Jenny followed closely beside him, mocking him in a low voice.

"Older women like this are more moisturized, don't you think?" An Rushong said with a laugh.

Jenny rolled her eyes at him and said nothing more.

The group went up the stairs and went straight to the third floor without stopping on the second floor.

Just as he turned around the stairwell on the third floor and entered the corridor of the office area, An Rushong saw four or five young men in black suits and black ties, led by a middle-aged man, waiting at the entrance of the corridor.

Seeing An Rusong and his group appear, the middle-aged man who had been expressionless immediately put on a smile. He took the lead to step forward, stretched out his hand to An Rusong from a distance, and said, "I'm so sorry, President An, to bother you. I'm Prosecutor Bian Shiyu from the High-Tech Investigation Department of the Supreme Prosecutor's Office. I'm disturbing you today because of the drug trafficking case that has been getting more and more serious recently."
