My Hitman System

Chapter 63: Being Live on TV

Jin soon made his way out of the police station and was greeted by a reporter excitedly.

"Good morning sir! I'm from Tv16. I just got to know about your valiant act and would like to interview you for our audience, will it be possible for you to spare a few moments of your time?"

Tim requested while pointing towards the camera which was being held by Mathew.

"Sure, is this going to be live?" Jin asked.

"Yes sir, The arrangements have been made and we could go live at any moment now," Timmy replied.

"Alright, let's start then," Jin gave his acknowledgement and Tim nodded at Mathew.

A few moments later Jin's and Tim's faces appeared on the television sets in several homes.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the man beside me is the talk of the hour. The man who saved flight VK2367 from being hijacked. The man who single-handedly neutralized three terrorists and saved everyone on the flight. Mr. Jin Blaker," Tim introduced Jin to the viewers to gain their retention before moving the mic towards Jin.

"Mr. Jin, what were you thinking while you were facing those terrorists? Weren't you scared?" He asked.

"I was scared," Jin paused to add an effect as he continued, "Just like a normal person I too was scared however what scared me even more was the thought of seeing the other passengers in danger, the thought of all of us not being able to make it back home.

So I acted on my fears and subdued those terrorists. At worst it would have been just me who would be dead," Jin finished with a strict and righteous-looking expression.

"Wow! Just hearing you sends my blood pumping all over. I'm sure it's the same for our viewers! After you had dealt with those terrorists how did you feel?"

"I didn't feel anything. I was too focused on the gun wound the co-pilot had suffered. Thankfully the air hostess promptly applied a first aid and he was good to go," Jin answered.

"That must have been a scary experience I must say. Speaking of wounds. I see that a bandage is applied to your arm. Could you tell us what happened?" Tim asked. He too was curious since the start as to how Jin was injured.

"I was shot," Jin answered briefly.

"W-what...you mean from a gun?" Tim asked out of surprise. The thousands of viewers watching the television also opened their mouths seeing Jin's nonchalance.

"Yes, from a gun," Jin confirmed. His stoic attitude truly inspired several young male viewers and hyped the other viewers.

While all this was happening a deal was taking place between the directors of several news broadcasting channels with the director of Tv16.

They soon received the permission and Jin's face was now being live telecasted on all the news channels!

"I hope it's not hurting much Sir. If it is then we can end this interview now," Tim suggested. He felt a bit guilty for delaying an injured man.

"No, it's alright, it doesn't hurt anymore so you can continue with your questions," Jin told Tim. He had no intention of letting this golden opportunity go.

Tim had no idea that the show was now being telecasted on all news channels. He was more concerned with gaining back his flow which was interrupted earlier.

However, there was not much to worry about. He wasn't a greenhorn and was soon able to make a comeback.

With a voice filled with passion and zeal, he said, "You heard him Ladies and gentlemen, the man standing in front of us is the epitome of valour and moral righteousness. Despite being shot himself, the first thing he thought of after dealing with all the terrorists was about how the pilot was doing?! Truly it's rare to find men like Mr. Jin in today's world,"

Tim's words did the trick of glueing the ever-increasing viewers to their screens and invoked a sense of passion in them.

Now that their attention was retained Tim went back to his questions and started asking them one by one.

Jin navigated all those questions as skillfully as an adept sailor and impressed the viewers with his words. He was sticking to what Anna had suggested to him on the flight.

'Say not what you want to say but what the people want to hear,'

Tim was beyond just happy with Jin's answers. With each answer, he felt the amount of viewers increasing. He didn't know the exact number but he was willing to bet his balls that he was going to make a killing.

"Coming to the last question, what exactly do you plan to do in the Neon City now?" Tim asked. It was time to end the interview. He cannot stretch it for long since the attention span of viewers was short.

When Jin heard this question he smiled. This was exactly the question he had been waiting for all this while. Coincidentally this was also the first time Jin smiled in the whole interview and it attracted everyone's eyes as they waited to hear Jin's response.

"I will become an actor," Jin replied. He wanted to keep a shroud of mystery so he only said these four words.

Jin's revelation was like a bombardment for the viewers as the moment those words left his mouth discussions ensued on various social media platforms.

'Actor?! I just can't wait to see him on the big screen!!'

'Me too! You got your first fan right here Mr Jin!'

'Hey the rascal above, it's me who is his first fan, not you!'

'No, me!'

'It's me!'

'No, me!'

'Shut up the two of you! I just can't wait to see him in those intimate scenes. Oh how much I yearn to see what hides inside those clothes of his...'

'Why are you gae?'

'I'm a woman, since when it was frowned upon for a woman to like a man?'

'Liar! There are no women on the internet!'

'IKR! He thinks he could fool the eyes of us professionals, you're 100 years too young for that kiddo,'

'Are you guys serious...'

While the internet was being flooded with various comments it was the same for Tim's mind. It was being flooded with various follow-up questions and he had long forgotten that the earlier question was supposed to be the last.

That is until Jin stopped his attempt to ask the next question midway and said, "I believe that was your last question. A gentleman must stick to his words,"

As a result, Tim could only sigh and say, "Thank you for your time, Mr. Jin. I pray for your quick recovery and a successful career in the film industry,"

"The pleasure was all mine," Jin said and the interview was finally over. However, it was not so for the discussions taking place.

What Jin didn't know was that by tomorrow he would become an overnight sensation in the country and would be number two on the trending list on a particular search platform.

The still oblivious Jin was taken to the hospital by a cop where his wounds were treated. He was earlier suggested to visit the hospital before coming to the police station by the police officer at the airport.

However, he refused because Jin felt that it would be more convenient to deal with the statement-taking before making his way to the hospital.

Jin had to tap his injured area a few times to make the officer believe that it truly wasn't painful for him.

By late afternoon Jin's arm was treated for the gun wound as he made his way out of the hospital.
