Chapter 641
So... you are here to find fault with me...
After listening to Li Ang's aggressive question, the female reporter's originally tight spine couldn't help but relax slightly.
Good, finding fault is good! As long as it's not bringing people to catch me!
"Mr. Li Ang... no, Duke Lionheart who is about to marry into the royal family! You seem to have a small misunderstanding about me."
After steadying her mind slightly, the female reporter said with a smile:
"First of all, I only wrote seven reports about you, not eight."
"Secondly, you might as well assume that if it were you who became this Sun Newspaper reporter, and discovered the news I discovered, would you also write a few articles?"
Of course, and I should write more than you.
Upon hearing the female reporter's rhetorical question, Li Ang's face couldn't help but look a bit embarrassed. He found that he had indeed caused trouble a bit frequently, and it was quite normal to be stared at by reporters.
However, fortunately, these were not the main points at all. His real purpose was not to question any news reports, but to touch the bottom of this "reporter Nicole" who was suspected of being a rebel member.
"Okay, I admit that the things I've done during this period are all good news topics."
Wool hat, high-neck sweater, professional suit skirt, small leather shoes, thick shawl... The wrapping degree of the clothes is extremely high. Except for the hands painted with light pink nail polish, no skin exposed to the outside can be seen at all.
Strange, the walls of the Sun Newspaper office are buried with metal heat pipes, and the indoor temperature is not low. Is it a bit wrong to wear so many clothes?
Li Ang observed the female reporter in front of him while staring with "righteous indignation":
"But every one you wrote didn't say anything good about me, and some were simply rumors!"
"You are exaggerating~"
The female reporter shook her head, also observing the "opponent" in front of her, and pointed her finger at the newspaper on the table with a smile.
"Although in the eyes of many people, our Sun Newspaper can only be considered an entertainment newspaper, and even the news in the political and business quality edition is mostly catching shadows, I personally still value the authenticity of the reports."
"For example, in these few reports about you, I didn't draw conclusions directly for all situations that were not certain, but used sayings like 'suspected', 'possible', 'according to the author's speculation', right?"
The hands are very white, and the skin is very smooth, with a tender and moist feeling that seems to be able to squeeze out water.
Didn't respond to the female reporter's question for the first time, pretending to look at the words on the newspaper, but actually staring at the back of her hand, Li Ang's eyes couldn't help but narrow slightly.
This skin quality is a bit too good.
It is now the beginning of winter, and the winter in the capital is cold and dry, and the wind at the entrance of the Sun Newspaper office is very strong. So no matter how good her skin quality is, her skin should be slightly dehydrated after just returning from outside.
This abnormal moist skin quality should not appear today... Considering the identity of the anomalous object holder, her hands should have some special "problems". You can find an opportunity to shake hands with her later to see if it is some kind of anomalous object.
"Okay, I admit that what you said makes sense."
After taking his eyes off the "newspaper", Li Ang's expression softened slightly, then took out an older newspaper from the shopping bag and placed it on the table.
"'Sewage' incident intentional? Thomas Bobby Laien: Evidence is forged"
"Reporter Nicole, you wrote this report too, right?"
This is... the time when the Bobby Laien family united with two other big nobles to deliberately let the water company pour sewage into public water pipes in order to swallow Charles Department Store?
I remember that after I finished writing this report, I handed the evidence I picked up to the Minister of Justice of the royal family. So although the Bobby Laien family tried their best to deny it, they still suffered a strict review led by the Princess, were fined nearly 300,000 gold wheels, and were forced to transfer the operating rights of the water company at a low price.
So... everything before was a cover, the real reason why this new Lionheart Duke came to find fault is actually this report that caused heavy losses to the Bobby Laien family?
After recognizing the newspaper Li Ang took out, the female reporter's brows couldn't help but wrinkle, then she looked at the new helmsman of the Bobby Laien family in front of her and nodded expressionlessly.
"I did write it. May I ask if you have any questions about this report?"
"I do have questions I want to ask you."
Li Ang pondered where the "sheep tail" mentioned by the Black Goat was, and narrowed his eyes:
"The biggest problem is the evidence. May I ask where your evidence came from?" "Mr. Li Ang, if you have carefully read this report, then you should know that I have clearly written the origin of the evidence on it."
Being looked at by Li Ang with eyes that were too "sharp" and feeling uncomfortable, the female reporter frowned:
"When the Charles Department Store's money box collapsed and hurt people, I received the news and rushed to interview. I just happened to pick up those pieces of evidence in the shopping plaza... Believe it or not, these are facts!"
"Believe, of course I believe."
Li Ang nodded, and then said expressionlessly:
"But have you ever thought about why such an important piece of evidence would appear there for no reason, and just happened to be picked up by you? Could it be that someone deliberately brought it there?"
"So, you are suspecting that I took someone else's money and specifically published black material about the Bobby Laien family?"
Vaguely "understanding" the meaning of this new Lionheart Duke, the female reporter's attitude also became impolite. She crossed her legs and leaned on the back of the chair, smiling and mocking with small leather boots:
"Duke, first of all, whether the data about the water company is true or false, don't you really know at all? If you don't even know such key situations, then I suggest you check yourself well. At the very least, according to my investigation, the punishment the kingdom gave to your Bobby Laien family can even be considered light."
"Also, if you feel that my report is untrue and caused your Bobby Laien family to be punished, then it is best to go out and find the Sun Newspaper's dispute handling department to complain, and then go directly to the News Management Bureau to sue me... Well, the complaint window is right after going out, and it's downstairs."
After pointing the location of the dispute handling department to Li Ang, the female reporter sat up straight, put on an expression of 'I'm so scared', then blinked her eyes and said with fear:
"Duke, although your Bobby Laien family is almost finished, it is still not something a small reporter like me can afford to provoke. As long as you go to sue, I will definitely plead guilty obediently, and then compensate you according to the top-level penalty amount for defamation. I remember the price seems to be... 30 silver wheels?"
"Tsk tsk, a full 30 silver wheels! As long as you multiply it by another 100,000 times, it will be enough for your Bobby Laien family to pay the fine. This fine is really too big. I, this daring little reporter, have really been taught a lesson. Please let me go, okay?"
"..."
First-class fire-fanning level, this guy seems to be a big yin-yang master.
Looking at the female reporter who was begging for mercy but was actually provoking desperately, Li Ang was silent for a while, but didn't fly into a rage on the spot as the female reporter guessed, but picked up a stack of old newspapers he had just asked for from the guide.
In the female reporter's suspicious gaze, Li Ang flipped to "Charles Department Store Big Sale, a man was smashed into the hospital with 'heavy money'", pointed to his back figure buried in a pile of money, and then turned his body away, facing her and asking:
"Miss Nicole, don't you think this person looks familiar?"
"..."
After looking at Li Ang's back, and the old coat of the same color as the one in the photo, the female reporter couldn't help but open her eyes in surprise.
"That... the unlucky egg who was almost smashed to death by money... is actually you?"
"It's me, so you did write eight news reports about me during this period, but those seven were published in the Sun Newspaper's political and business quality edition, and this one was published in the mass entertainment edition. Also..."
After turning his body back, looking at the surprised female reporter, Li Ang said slowly:
"The evidence you picked up was brought to the shopping plaza by me. I originally wanted the boss of Charles Department Store to come forward and poke out the sewage matter, but I... because of an accident, I went to the hospital, and those pieces of evidence were left in the plaza, and as a result, they were picked up by you who rushed to interview."
"..."
"..."
Looking at Li Ang who didn't look like he was faking, the female reporter couldn't help but be stunned, then said with a stutter:
"Then... then you came to..."
"I came to thank you."
Grabbing the female reporter's very white and tender palm and shaking it up and down hard, a bright smile slowly bloomed on Li Ang's face, and he said with an extremely enthusiastic expression:
"Thank you, you really helped me a lot!"
"..."
