Chapter 265
Taek-gyu, who entered the Dungeon of the Multi-level (?) again on his own feet, told Hong Chang-soo and Min Ha-young.
“After hearing the explanation that day, I had a feeling that this was just the case. Can you live more than a billion?”
Hong Chang-soo asked.
“How much?”
“That’s it.”
Taek-gyu showed the account balance on his smartphone.
Min Ha-young and Hong Chang-soo, who saw it, opened their mouths in amazement. That’s probably because the number of zeros increased by one more than the last time.
Hong Chang-soo swallowed the wind.
“Bear, ten billion!”
Min Ha-young looked at Taek-gyu with her eyes wide open.
“What is this… … ?”
This is an impossible amount to win the lottery.
Taek-gyu crossed his arms and said.
“Actually, last year, I bought Bantcoin with my lottery winnings, and it has increased tenfold. So, I want to invest in coins one more time.”
In the midst of the cryptocurrency craze, when Bantecoin soared to nearly 30 million won, several people appeared in the media saying they made billions or tens of billions of dollars. Hopefully one of them will be here!
After a while, Hong Chang-soo, who came to his senses, said.
“Well, well thought. Investing is also a coin. Are you going to invest all 10 billion?”
“It seems like it will be difficult, and I will invest half of it, 5 billion won.”
“Oh, five billion!”
That alone is the highest ever in sales.
Min Ha-young looked at Taek-gyu with a confused expression.
“Are you serious?”
“then. Jeil Gold Coin is a new dream and hope.”
“… … .”
Taek-gyu said to Hong Chang-soo again.
“I would like to hear more explanations before investing. Can I meet with the CEO?”
“of course. I will tell the head of the center.”
Choi Nam-woo, who was giving a lecture elsewhere, got a call and ran to him.
The two shook hands and sat down in the conference room.
Choi Nam-woo tilted his head slightly.
‘I must have seen it somewhere.’
Taek-gyu hit the player first before he spoke.
“I’m a little familiar with you, but have you ever met at the gym before?”
Choi Nam-woo was surprised at those words.
“Ah! That’s right. Somehow, I thought I was familiar too. I used to go to several gyms for work. Maybe we met then. Haha, but I’m sure we’ll meet again at a place like this.
Taehyung laughed.
“It’s really exciting. I guess this is related.”
The atmosphere naturally brightened.
Nam-woo Choi showed various materials and explained Jeil Gold Coin and the Venezuelan oilfield business with all his heart and soul.
Taek-gyu said with admiration.
“It’s amazing. It’s a cryptocurrency, but it’s a real currency.”
“That’s it. Bantcoin is only scarce and has no value by itself, but Jeil Gold Coin is different.”
Taek-gyu said, pretending to listen carefully.
“Will I be able to meet the CEO of Cheil Group once?”
“Chairman Soon-pyo Ham?”
“Yes. Since it is a big investment, I want to meet and hear about the oil field business in Venezuela.”
Choi Nam-woo had a troubled expression on his face.
“The president is very busy with work. You travel frequently to Venezuela and Singapore.”
Taek-gyu said it was a pity.
“Ok? Then I’ll think about it a bit more and tell you later. To be honest, I was thinking about whether to buy Bantcoin or Jeil Goldcoin because Bantcoin seems to have dropped a lot these days. If the oil field is certain, I want to invest in Jeil Gold Coin.”
“That is for sure.”
“I know that, but I think hearing it in person will make you more confident.”
Chairman Ham Soon-pyo said that more funds were needed for oilfield mining, and he was urging us to sell the coins as soon as possible. As such, he could not miss the amount of 5 billion.
Choi Nam-woo, who had finished thinking, said.
“Okay. We will make an appointment as soon as possible.”

Seoul Central District Prosecutors’ Office.
Prosecutor Ahn Seong-nam saw a young man in his twenties sitting opposite him. The young man with his short hair and glasses was wearing a gray sweatshirt, and he was wearing three-wire slippers that every Korean should have.
Isn’t it too free for a visitor to the prosecutor’s office? I think it would be the most comfortable attire, not only for prosecutors and staff, but also for criminals being investigated.
The young man’s name is Oh Taek-gyu. He is none other than the Vice President of the OTK Company.
In Korea, although everyone knows Jin-hoo Kang, few people know Taek-gyu Oh. However, Prosecutor Ahn Seong-nam was well aware of Oh Tae-gyu.
This is because, last year, the Seoul Central District Prosecutors’ Office misunderstood Taek-gyu Oh as the CEO of OTK Company and arrested him.
At that time, the crimes were violating the Foreign Exchange Control Act, violating the Financial Management Act, insider trading, illegal trading, etc.
However, Oh Taek-gyu was calm, even though he was being charged with a sentence that could cost him several decades in prison. He wasn’t under arrest for how well he ate and slept, but it looked like he was camping at the prosecutor’s office.
The investigation was strangely uncooperative. He asks about the establishment and transaction process of the OTK company, and he talks about animation and games out of the blue, does he nodded because he was tired, and laughed out loud.
The prosecutor in charge threatened that the sentence could be aggravated, and even tried to convince him that if he cooperated well, he would be able to go to probation, but he turned his clothes upside down, picking his ears and nostrils with an expression of who the dog was barking.
However, he could not forcefully interrogate him.
Although he may be able to handle poor dog hair and regular criminals harshly, wealthy economic criminals are a different story. (Besides, my older sister is a Golden Gate branch manager, and she was defending herself in the Golden Gate legal team).
He was aiming to waste time by holding him anyway, so it didn’t matter much from the prosecution’s point of view. But when it was later revealed that the wrong person had been caught, the prosecution was stunned.
Public opinion was pouring in that the prosecution carried out a planned investigation according to the taste of the government. As a result, Prosecutor General Hong Man-ho was stripped of his clothes, and the chief of the Seoul District Prosecutors’ Office and the prosecutors on the line either resigned or were demoted.
Afterwards, the Hoseong Savings Bank incident, the Eunsung car airbag recall incident, PAS bankruptcy, and the arrest of former President Park Si-hyeong occurred, and among prosecutors, it was said that if entangled with the OTK Company, it would not look good.
Prosecutor Ahn Seong-nam asked with a confused expression.
“What did you come here for?”
Taek-gyu pulled out a thick envelope from his sweatshirt pocket and held it out.
“I would like to meet you and say hello, and give you this as well. It’s specially prepared for you, so if you open it, you’ll be satisfied. I’ve brought more in my bag, so let’s open it up and check it out.”
He was startled inside.
‘What is this? Are you testing me? Do you want to blow my throat like Hong Man-ho?’
Prosecutor Ahn Seong-nam jumped up and shouted.
“Uh-huh! What do you think of Korean prosecutors? I don’t know how much or what, but if you don’t want to be charged with bribery, get it out of my sight right now!”
Taek-gyu narrowed his eyes and said.
“This is a complaint.”
“… … Huh?”
When I opened the envelope, there was indeed a double-folded complaint.
‘Doesn’t these things usually come in a briefcase?’
And the complaint should be filed with the civil service office, what about giving it directly to the chief prosecutor?
Prosecutor Ahn Seong-nam, who was embarrassed for nothing, asked as if nothing had happened.
“What is the complaint?”
Taek-gyu said with a sad expression on his face.
“I was scammed a few days ago. I was so angry and embarrassed that I came to sue myself like this.”
‘Then go to the complaint room. But if the vice president of OTK Company said something like this, how much fraud did you get?’
Prosecutor Ahn Seong-nam was perplexed, but glanced at the complaint.
“This is the amount of damage… … ?”
“Yes. It’s as written there. It’s not 25,000 won or 250,000 won, it’s a whopping 252 million won.”
“… … .”
are you kidding me? Why is this guy with tens of trillions of assets like this?
“Continue reading. They’re not normal guys.”
In the complaint, the whole story of the fraud case was arranged in an easy-to-understand manner.
‘Is the JG blockchain illegally selling coins of no value in multiple stages, and the proceeds flowed into the Cheil Group? The Cheil Group is mining oil fields in Venezuela, but is that also a scam?’
“As you can see, CEO Nam-woo Choi is attracting members by selling the name of Jin-hoo Kang.”
“Isn’t it true that they are relatives?
“Yeah, but I ended the relationship altogether. But he was talking as if Jinhoo Kang would invest or be listed on Bansome. Well, whatever it is, the important thing is that these guys are cheating anyway.”
“Do you have any evidence?”
“of course.”
Taek-gyu took out the material from the bag he was carrying and handed it to him.
While Prosecutor Ahn Seong-nam turned over the documents, Taek-gyu continued to speak.
“My high school classmate was also deceived into taking a loan and putting money into it. Thousands of victims alone, and at least tens of billions of dollars in damages. I’m spending 2,500,000 won right now and I’m bleeding and crying and can’t even sleep properly, aren’t these guys going to have a sore stomach and eat well? How can this happen in a country where the rule of law is?”
The amount of material was almost the size of a book.
There were about 100 pieces of data from Bansomem that analyzed the source code of coins, another 150 pieces of data from Golden Gate that tracked the flow of funds, and an official document from the Venezuelan government confirming that it had never sold a state-owned oil field. .
“Where did this come from?”
“Since there is an oil field in Venezuela, we sent our staff to Caracas to check whether the 2.52 million won was really safe or not. But the government officials there say it’s groundless. There is an official document about it, but you can’t read it in Spanish, so if you look at the back page, there is a translation attached.”
“… … .”
The flight to and from Venezuela would have cost more.
Taehyung said proudly.
“I must catch these scammers and get my bloody 2.52 million won back. It’s an important and urgent situation. Can you investigate and arrest me right now?”
Prosecutor Ahn Seong-nam put down the documents he was holding and said.
“Let’s review it internally.”
“I don’t have time for that. In the meantime, what if you notice it and go abroad or take the money from your account somewhere else?”
“The prosecution is not such an idle organization. There are a number of cases already under investigation, and in order not to be asked for an investigation or anything else later, it is necessary to carefully check the seriousness of the case and whether it can be prosecuted according to the established procedures and regulations.”
“Then you didn’t miss Jo Hee-Pal too, did you? No, he didn’t catch him on purpose because the prosecutors took bribes?”
At those words, Prosecutor Ahn Seong-nam frowned slightly. Well, it is true that some prosecutors took bribes from Jo Hee-pal and his crew.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)
“I will investigate in principle.”
Prosecutors are also civil servants. If there are rules and procedures, there is no answer.
Taehyung sighed.
“Ah, then I can’t help it. Okay.”
“We will answer this later.”
Taek-gyu shook his head at those words.
“No, it’s okay. I’m going to meet with the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency Commissioner Park Yong-seok later, so I’ll talk with him.”
For a moment, Prosecutor Ahn Seong-nam stopped.
“Why is the chief of the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency… … ?”
“Why? The prosecution says it takes time, so I’m going to file a complaint with the police station. It’s hard for busy prosecutors to pay attention to every single crime that has thousands of victims and only tens of billions of dollars in damages. I’ll leave it up to the police to run the multi-level crew at a glance. I heard from a reporter covering this case that the police these days are very interested in investigating financial crimes. Ah! Come to think of it, I should tell the media that the prosecution rejected the case, and that the case is being reported to the police.”
“The press?”
“Yes. The tracking PD team has been digging for it before. It’s a case involving Kang Jin-hoo’s relatives. I’m sure it’s a backpacker scoop just by popping it. Anyways, then I’m alone.”
When Taek-gyu tried to take the complaint back, Prosecutor Ahn Seong-nam hurriedly caught it.
“Come on, wait.”
“Yes? Why?”
Right now, the political circles are in the midst of discussing the adjustment of the police and investigative powers. The key is to hand over the investigative authority of the prosecution to the police. It was an unwelcome discussion from the prosecution’s point of view as the prosecution’s authority was reduced.
What will happen if the police solve the case in which the prosecution refused to investigate in this situation? It is not a case of violence or murder, but a multi-level financial crime case.
The police will receive the media spotlight and applause from the public, but the prosecution will find it difficult to avoid criticism.
And the police will be excited and shout that the prosecution should give up the investigation command. (The prosecution has argued that complicated financial and intelligent crime cases are difficult for the police to solve directly, so the prosecution should lead the investigation).
Whatever it is, it shouldn’t be.
Prosecutor Ahn Seong-nam looked at Taek-gyu with a questioning whether he was sure.
“If you don’t believe me, I’ll go to the police station, which is the people’s cane and is warmly welcomed by Podol and Posun. Good-bye.”
Then he quickly took the complaint from Taek-gyu’s hand.
“The complaint has been filed.”
Then he picked up the receiver right on the desk, paused and looked at Taek-gyu.
“If this is not certain, you will have to take responsibility.”
Taek-gyu chuckled.
“Sure. If you solve the case and get on the media, buy me a meal.”
“… … .”
After becoming a prosecutor, I’ve met a lot of businessmen who want to buy food, but this is the first time I’ve met a business person who said to buy food.
‘What’s so fresh?’
Prosecutor Ahn Seong-nam immediately gave the order.
“Now, inspect Chief Cha Young-ho and tell him to come to my room in the Financial Crimes Investigation Team.”
