Shi Tengchuan Ying handed the USB drive to An Yuanxin and took a seat across from him, saying nothing. After Ant Army Company spoke up and revealed the impact of salvaging the seismometer, their government had been plunged into even greater trouble.
The disaster relief efforts were already enough of a headache. If the seismometer issue was not handled properly, they could end up in a political crisis. The opposition had always coveted the leadership position.
"Are all the photos here?" An Yuanxin pulled the USB drive from the computer and spoke calmly.
"Yes, sir." Shi Tengchuan Ying nodded.
An Yuanxin adjusted his glasses, his expression still blank. "Were there any fishing boats nearby when the Americans salvaged the seismometer?"
"There seemed to be two fishing boats." Shi Tengchuan Ying lowered his head and thought for a moment.
"Keep this confidential. No one else can know, or you understand the consequences." An Yuanxin's tone was icy, carrying a clear warning.
"Understood."
Shi Tengchuan Ying guessed what An Yuanxin intended to do and immediately nodded. Only after receiving An Yuanxin's permission did he leave the office. For some time to come, he would need to take leave. Since he had salvaged the seismometer and then the earthquake happened, there were too many contradictions involved. Inevitably, he had become the target of public attention and attack.
Not long after Shi Tengchuan Ying left, a cold-faced man entered An Yuanxin's office.
"Upload these pictures online. Say they were taken by fishermen." An Yuanxin handed the USB drive to the man.
"Yes, sir."
The cold-faced man took the USB drive without asking any questions, then turned and left.
In the living room.
While Chen Mo was looking at his phone, Xiao Yu came out of the room.
She was wearing the same floral dress
