After putting down the phone, Holy Hand did not call the police as He Yixia had said. He had his own considerations. Of course, in the process of fighting the lawsuit with President Niu, the sage had also devoted himself to learning a lot of legal knowledge.
He knew that the reporter's actions were definitely related to extortion. However, the reporters had the motive to extort money, but most importantly, the saint had yet to give him the money that the reporters wanted to extort. That was to say, the reporters 'extortion was still in progress. The other party had not received the money, and he had not suffered any losses. What would happen if he called the police? It was hard to say.
Holy Hand still had to wait a little longer to see what the reporters would do next. After the three days were up, of course, the Divine Hand would not transfer money to the reporters. The reporter's call came as expected. "You have to keep your word. It's been three days, but your money hasn't been transferred to my card. Are you going back on your word?"
However, Saint Hand said," Money is a small matter. There are bigger things. If you want to know the reason, please come to my office to talk. Of course, if you don't want to know the reason, you don't have to come. I'm waiting for your article to be published in the newspaper.”
After putting down the phone, even the Sage was unsure about what to do about the press conference. However, he was certain that he would never give money to the reporters. Since he was a fake reporter, which media outlet would publish his article?
No matter what time it was, people were most afraid of having their trump cards discovered. The reporters were like this now. His trump card was in the hands of the Sacred Hand, so the Sacred Hand could wait for fatigue. Actually, the reason why Saint Hand was unwilling to call the police was also because he had his own considerations.
If He Yixia didn't dig up the reporter's dark history, then Sacred Hand might call the police to deal with it according to the original method. However, after knowing the reporter's background, the saint suddenly felt pity and compassion.
A reporter who claimed to be the uncrowned king was imprisoned because of his greed. This was what he deserved. After he was released from prison, he could have started anew and obtained a new life. However, how could a person who was good at writing, a seemingly weak scholar, who had nothing but two articles and no skills, settle down in society?
Therefore, under such circumstances, it was not strange for him to return to his old profession, but it was also in line with his own logic. If he were to call the police this time, he would definitely be punished again because of his previous record.
However, such a crime could not make him stay in prison for the rest of his life. He still had to get out. After he came out, the older he was, the longer he was estranged from society. How could he integrate into society again? Then his life would be over.
Therefore, the Sacred Hand also had the heart to treat and save people on this matter. The reason why he suggested that if the reporter wanted to know the reason why he could not get the money, he would come back for another interview was to see if he was hopeless. He wanted to see if he had the heart to be kind and change his evil heart.
Of course, Saint Hand also knew that with his own strength, he could not turn the tide. He could only do his best. Furthermore, would the reporters come to meet him? It was still in between.
However, the reporters still came. The two of them went upstairs to the Sage Hand's office. The Sage Hand still made him some herbal tea. She said," I really thought you wouldn't come. Because I've made it clear that I won't pay you. You must know what's going on. Our matter ends here.”
"However, aren't you afraid that I'll call the police if you dare to come?”
The reporter said," I haven't gotten the money yet. It's useless even if you call the police. Besides, if you called the police, they would have arrested me long ago.”
Saint Hand thought about it and felt that it made sense. He said," Then what are you here for? Do you have to get the money to prove your crime?”
The reporter's expression changed." It looks like you're really a scheming man. I really didn't expect this." I thought you just wanted to make a fuss, but I didn't expect to hear from your words that you did have some evidence.”
"But since you're here, I'm still very curious. What evidence do you have?”
Saint Hand shouted out the reporter's pen name. "That's the name you used when you wrote the news report, right?”
The reporter originally still had a fluke mentality. He thought that the sage was a local doctor who came from the mountains. In the big city, he was still a country bumpkin.
It was precisely because of this that they locked onto Saint Hands. However, he had never expected that the saint hand had hidden its strength and grabbed its seven inches at the critical moment. So when the Holy Hand called out his pen name, he slipped down from his chair in disappointment.
His originally thin body seemed even smaller now. Saint Hand said," It's also possible that you're already outdated. Do you think that your reporter's certificate is still the same as before, that you can use it to scare people? Even though you have an exquisitely crafted reporter's certificate, there is no information about your reporter's certificate on the Internet. Therefore, I can conclude that you are an imposter.”
"Of course, as for your pen name, it was also a coincidence that I found it on the Internet. You have to know that no matter how deeply hidden the past is, it will still be dug out by the human flesh search on the Internet. Therefore, your past was exposed.”
"Since you are a fake reporter and a reporter with a criminal record, there is no need for us to continue fulfilling our original agreement. That's why I didn't transfer the money to you within the three-day deadline.”
"You should stop while you're ahead. I didn't call the police immediately because I wanted to let you off. I didn't expect you to be so lucky and still want to get the money you promised. This is your fault. It seems like you haven't learned your lesson. You're greedy.”
The reporter suddenly sobbed after hearing the sage's explanation. A grown man cried like a child. Even though he had been a doctor for many years and was used to hearing patients groan in pain, this was the first time he had heard such sobs.
Holy Hand said," Don't cry too much. I've already told you the reason. Even if you continue to cry, I won't give you any money.”
The reporter finally stopped crying and said," Although I was hoping to get lucky, I was also in a desperate situation. I could only take the risk.”
Saint Hands didn't think so. "Is extortion your only option now?”
The person who remembered sighed." People say that there is always a way out, but for me, it's the exact opposite. I'm really at my wits 'end now. Since you already know my background, I'm not afraid of losing face.”
"Back then, it was indeed a mistake. I was muddle-headed for a moment. I felt that the mine owner did not care about the lives of the workers in order to make money. When a mine accident happened, I concealed it and did not report it.”
"Someone leaked the news and the reporters swarmed over. I also know that they set up checkpoints to block the reporters on the road. Of course, he would not use violence against the reporters. That would add to the crime and speed up his exposure, so he could only use money to bribe them.”
"I wasn't pretending when I rejected his 5,000 yuan envelope. But later, the mine owner personally appeared and gave me a golden rat. At that time, a golden mouse was worth more than 100,000 yuan! How much money can I earn by writing for a lifetime?”
"Even if my manuscript is published and my boss might go to jail, what else can I get other than a false reputation? If I don't write a script, no one will know the details, and neither will the newspaper. At most, they would say that I'm not sensitive enough to the news and have a bad sense of smell. Therefore, he had obediently accepted the golden rat, but he did not expect to ruin his life.”
