Chapter Seventy-Seven: Visits and Blackmail
The next morning, after Takahashi finished the show, he and Mori Koshin took the address and went to the first young player who cleared the "Gold Digger Championship".
Since there is no specific information, it is only known that the gender of the person who cleared the customs is male and the age is 10 years old.
Therefore, Takahashi and Mori Konsin thought of several interview routines. But I haven't actually practiced it, although I think there are no loopholes, but after all, it's just on paper, maybe when I really meet the little players, these routines are as ridiculous as a sieve.
Metro, subway, walking.
After changing the subway and getting off at a place relatively close to the address on paper, Takahashi and the two walked down the street.
"Ding Dong!" rang the doorbell.
This is a single-family house, and the difference between this housing and other countries is that this kind of ordinary single-family house is not as expensive as an apartment building.
This can be seen from the animation "Crayon Xiaoxin", Xiaoxin's house is not as high-end as Kazama's apartment.
Although, Brother Hiroshi Nohara is also a top student who graduated from Waseda, Meihan's daily life is simply the ultimate life that many women dream of, eating, sleeping, eating, and buying when bored......
"Ding ......" The fifth doorbell rang before the door rang.
Takahashi looked at the woman who opened the door and was a little confused, isn't this the mother I met on the Shinkansen yesterday, could it be......
"Mom, Mom, is Takahashi here?" A familiar voice came from inside the house, the voice came from far and near, and when the little boy walked out of the house and saw Takahashi at the door, he exclaimed excitedly, "Takahashi, you are really here! I just finished watching your show! Have you just come out of the TV station?"
"Well, just came out of the TV station. Takahashi replied.
The little boy's way of speaking seemed a little too big or too small, but it was not malicious. Politeness often means distancing, and the little boy talking to Takahashi like this shows that he really regards Takahashi as a friend.
"Xiao Che!" the mother stared at the little boy and raised her eyebrows, and the little boy immediately restrained a lot. He was still in high spirits just now, and he became a bodhisattva with low eyebrows.
"This is my son Sakurada Toru, are you here to interview him today? My husband, who is also a journalist, is inside, and I want to discuss the interview with you two. Sakurada's mother said.
There was a tree in the small yard, and although it was full of foliage, Takahashi didn't know what kind of book it was.
After a total of ten steps from the door to the house, Takahashi counted the steps into the threshold, entered the house, and took off his shoes at the entrance, giving a reassuring look to Konobu Mori, who was a little nervous beside him.
There is a door on the left hand side of the entrance, and on the other side of the door is the living room, and the TV in the corner of the wall is showing special photos of the weekend, and Takahashi glanced at it, as if it was one of the Ultraman series.
At the square table, there sat a man, who was supposed to be the husband of the little boy's mother.
"Hello, for the record, I'm Hudson Takahashi, and next to me is my colleague, Koshin Mori. I'm here today to interview your son, the first finisher of the Gold Digger Tournament. After Takahashi introduced himself and Mori Konsin, he explained his intentions.
Originally, this should have been said at the door, but I forgot it because of the little boy's interruption.
The man raised his head, his eyes were not anything special, maybe he wanted to pretend to be very sharp, but it was still far from Pubi Yamauchi.
"I've seen you, on TV. The man first pointed to the TV, then to his children and wife, "They have also seen you, on the Shinkansen yesterday." You already know what it does, I have a manuscript in front of me, and I want you to help me read it. ”
The man pushed the manuscript in front of him forward and pushed it to Takahashi's side.
"Presumptuous. Takahashi sat down, picked up the manuscript on the table, and flipped through the pages, saying from an outsider's point of view, that his wife and son had met the nearest celebrity, Takahashi, on their way back to Tokyo by Shinkansen.
Takahashi looked up after reading the manuscript, and the man pushed another piece of paper.
Comparing the two sheets of paper, the difference is only one sentence.
"Play for an hour a day......"
"As far as I know, you are an employee of a game company, I don't know your company, I don't want the public to know, you once said that an hour of playing the game is enough?"
The man said.
Mori Konsin was wondering why he had said a good interview, but suddenly he became tense. After seeing the press release written by the man, he knew that Takahashi had already seen the mother and son yesterday, and looking at the current appearance, it seems that Takahashi said something yesterday and fell into the handle, and this man is now blackmailing ......
"Just ask my leader, if you have any requirements, I can tell our leaders on your behalf. Takahashi said.
He didn't feel that he was wrong, the main audience of red and white machines is children, and no parent wants their children to be addicted to video games every day.
Besides, if it weren't for the face of this mother yesterday, Takahashi wouldn't have said such a thing.
Looking at the journalist in front of him, and then at the manuscript in front of him that had deducted some of the facts, and wanted to use this blackmail, Takahashi inexplicably felt a little like laughing.
"You want your leader to know that you said such stupid things?" the man did not follow Takahashi's train of thought, but walked at his own pace.
"I don't want to do anything, I don't want to deceive my leader. I don't think it's a good behavior to promote, especially in front of children. Takahashi said neither humbly nor arrogantly.
Maori Koshin, who was almost completely in a state of watching the play, heard this sentence and felt a trace of admiration for the colleague next to him who was younger than himself.
If you make a mistake, it's easy to say, but how many people can do it?
He put himself in his shoes and regarded himself as Takahashi, maybe in the face of such blackmail, he would just give in. Journalists, the media, anyone who lives in modern society, knows how terrible they are. Because, what they report will be regarded as facts by the public, and no one will care what the real facts are.
Thinking of this, although Konobu Maori admired, he still quietly pulled the corner of Takahashi's clothes and glanced at Takahashi, wanting him to soften.
One hour of gaming is enough, and one hour of gaming a day shouldn't be said by the people of the game manufacturer......
Takahashi comforted Maori Koshin again, and then said, "This matter will be discussed later, my power is limited, and I will give you an answer immediately before I send it, I believe that our leader will definitely satisfy you." Now let's interview your son, okay. ”
