"Since you're here, Andrew, you go meet him and see what he wants to do now!"
Marz was unwilling to confront David personally and had no choice but to instruct Andrew to do so.
Andrew nodded and immediately went out, walking all the way to the lobby of the office area. As expected, David had already arrived.
He immediately greeted him and said, "Director David, what brings you to our prison today?"
"Deputy Warden Andrew, do you remember what I said yesterday?"
Seeing David's confident demeanor, Andrew felt increasingly uneasy and replied, "What do you mean, Director David?"
"Yesterday, I mentioned that the National Tax Bureau came with sincerity to speak with you. You said everything needs evidence. Well, since you want evidence, I'll satisfy you today!"
With those words, Nisen stepped forward and handed over a file folder to Andrew.
Andrew's mood became heavier, for David's appearance didn't seem like a bluff. Could the contents of this bag actually be evidence?
"That's a given, but... I also need a little help from you. I observed yesterday that the special prison meals and the prisoners' labor are definitely worth more than what you've reported to the National Tax Bureau. I need a real ledger from you!"
"No, our accounts are correct, I will only pay my own due in taxes. The rest has nothing to do with me."
"Do you think you still have a choice?"
"You..."
Andrew ground his teeth in anger once again, but remembering that someone else now had the upper hand over him,
and considering David had personally seen to it that higher-ups like Sparks and Henderson were put behind bars, sending him would be a matter of minutes, forcing him to suppress his anger and explain, "If I hand the ledger over to you, then I can't stay here any longer. Besides, this isn't something a Deputy Warden can decide!"
"It's not for you to decide, you say? Then go notify someone who can."
"Do you think I'm that important to them, to the GCO? Let me tell you, even if I do notify them, they won't comply!"
What Andrew was really saying was that although David had caught him this time, the others, in hopes of preserving their careers, would definitely choose to abandon him over handing over the ledgers, given the choice.
