Are You Crazy? You’re Telling Me This Is a Fugitive TV Show?

Meanwhile, in a DiDi car, Brother Hu informed Wang Yun, “Boss, the SIM card is discarded, all according to your plan. He’s keeping the speed at sixty-five kilometers per hour. We’ll meet up with him in ten minutes.”

“Hmm,” Wang Yun acknowledged, glancing at the computer in front of him.

“Brother Wang Yun, I can’t believe I’m meeting you. Am I on live TV right now? Could we take a photo together later?” the driver asked excitedly.

“Brother driver, yes, you’re on live TV now. A photo is absolutely possible. Currently, you’re part of our hijacking plot, and later, I’ll have to ‘kill’ you, so I’d appreciate your cooperation,” Wang Yun responded to the driver with a smile.

“No problem at all, I’m fully on board, haha! Big Brother, you’re an idol in our household. I never dreamed I’d be so lucky to be part of the Skynet Operation show, hehe,” the driver spoke with evident joy. “Let’s take plenty of photos later. I can’t wait to show them to my kid back home. My little one’s a huge fan of yours, too.”

“Thank you. I’ll do my best to fulfill your request. After you’re ‘killed’ for the show, you’ll disappear for twenty-four hours before your wife reports your absence to the police. It’s all for the show’s realism,” Wang Yun explained with a smile.

“Understood, no problems there. I once dreamt of being an actor. Spent two years in Beijing chasing that dream, but it didn’t pan out. Now, unexpectedly, I get this brief time on screen, hehe!” the driver said, excited.

“This is so funny. The atmosphere of this intense escape got completely deflated by the driver!”

“Driver brother, you’re on live TV now, couldn’t you put on a little more of a show?”

“Big Brother is quick! He’s about to rendezvous with the vehicle carrying the disguise materials. The program officers are still ten minutes behind. Looks like Big Brother is going to secure those materials.”

“Big Brother is indeed quick, but the program officers are close behind. Once he has the materials, the road surveillance is likely to track him down.”

At the same time, viewers in Wang Yun’s livestream were laughing and chatting about the unfolding scene.

This evening’s operation was proving to be a spectacular battle of wits and display of strategy. It was incredibly thrilling.

After hailing two DiDi cars, Wang Yun swiftly ‘hijacked’ this driver. They then quickly made their way toward the vehicle with the disguise materials, staying in the backseat to avoid detection by surveillance cameras.

Ahead of Wang Yun’s location, a vehicle was situated about a kilometer in front of them. Inside, three of his subordinates were intently focused on the road ahead, looking for the delivery vehicle carrying the disguise materials.

As time progressed, Wang Yun and his team gradually closed in on their target. Soon, the subordinates spotted a van in the distance.

“That’s it, the license plate matches. That van is delivering the disguise mask materials,” they said, eyes locked on the vehicle ahead. Quickly, they spoke into a constantly used phone, “Boss, we have eyes on the delivery van.”

“Hmm? You’ve spotted it?” Wang Yun’s focus intensified as he viewed the road’s surveillance setup on the computer before him. He promptly instructed the driver, “Brother driver, accelerate to 120 kilometers per hour.”

“No problem, hold tight, Big Brother,” the driver said, pressing the accelerator to the floor, causing the vehicle to rapidly gain speed.

“We’ve got a surveillance-free zone coming up in a hundred meters. The delivery van is 900 meters away, moving at 65 kilometers per hour. We’re going 120… Perfect. We need to pull over in the blind spot. I’ll give the signal in three seconds,” Wang Yun calculated silently, counting down in his head.

1, 2, 3.

As soon as three seconds passed, Wang Yun immediately instructed, “Start honking, and keep honking.”

“Right,” the driver nodded.

“Beep, beep, beep!” The urgent, incessant honking echoed on the road.

At that moment, the young driver in the van ahead, startled by the sound, focused sharply. He abruptly braked, bringing the van to a sudden halt. He quickly exited the vehicle, opened the trunk, and grabbed the disguise mask materials.

However, he only took half of the twenty kilograms of disguise mask materials, acting on orders from ‘Hu Sanqing,’ their leader. This included the earlier order to discard the SIM card.

At that moment, Wang Yun saw the van ahead and quickly instructed the driver, “Stop the car.”

The vehicle screeched to an immediate halt. Wang Yun sprang out and rushed toward the young man, swiftly taking the disguise mask materials from his grasp.

“Quick, get back in the car and drive. Accelerate fast for a kilometer, then resume the previous speed,” he commanded the young man.

“Understood,” the young man, following the order, quickly jumped back into the car, shifted into gear, and floored the accelerator, speeding off faster than before. The entire process, from getting out of the car to driving off again, took just five seconds.

Holding the ten kilograms of disguise mask materials, Wang Yun’s lips curled into a subtle, chilling smirk. He returned to his vehicle, signaling the driver to head forward.

“Boss, why did we only take half? We could have taken all twenty kilograms,” Brother Hu said, visibly confused.

They could have easily got the entire twenty kilograms of materials for their disguises. Why the need for such complex maneuvers and unnecessary steps?

“It’s all about setting a trap, seeking revenge, and strategizing for a better course of action,” Wang Yun replied coolly, his face etched with a frosty determination.

Tonight’s ambush and arrest by the program inspection team warranted a calculated response, a repayment in kind.

“Let’s take a detour up ahead to head back into Nancheng,” Wang Yun instructed the driver.

Wang Yun, reclining in his seat, turned his attention to review his attributes:

Host: Wang Yun

Shotp: (Open?)

Note: The host is advised to acquire more shock value points for enhancing physique and skills.

His shock points, significantly depleted from recent use, were now just over 5.3 million. He had significantly upgraded his arsenal with numerous god-level skills. Notably, God-level Trap Setting was a reward from a system mission.

Presently, Wang Yun was strategizing to utilize this skill for a crucial counteroffensive, a battle of wits and strategy.

Meanwhile, as Wang Yun diverted his route back to Nancheng, several vehicles from the program inspection team were rapidly traversing the road he had just left. Ames, observing the van through road surveillance, asked, “Master, we’re closing in on the delivery van. Should we proceed to arrest the driver and intercept the materials?”

Kolyev didn’t give an immediate answer, instead, he paused, looking to the other captains for their input, “Should we arrest them or not?”

“No,” Wu Mingyu, fixated on a scene playing out on the monitor, decisively stated his position.

“Arrest them. It’s a foolproof plan. The disguise materials are likely still inside that van. By confiscating them, we can prevent Wang Yun and his team from creating any disguise masks,” Kolyev reasoned, his eyes glinting. “But not arresting them could serve as bait, though it comes with its own risks. Our first priority is to verify that Wang Yun hasn’t already obtained the materials. If they’re still in the van, we should cleverly exploit this opportunity.”

Wu Mingyu, his gaze flickering thoughtfully, added, “Captain Wu Yaoming just informed us that Wang Yun’s whereabouts and escape route remain unknown. We have no clue where they might have run to. Wang Yun’s audacity primarily stems from his reliance on disguise masks. Without them, he wouldn’t be so daring. He must be desperate for these materials. Let’s dispatch our officers to set up a mock vehicle checkpoint at the intersection. They’ll inspect the van, find the materials, and then plant some dye-like substances inside to ruin the materials. By doing this, we ensure a failsafe approach and also create a bait. Wang Yun will certainly have to make contact with this delivery driver.”

Wu Mingyu’s proposal garnered subtle nods of agreement from the other captains.

“We should plant surveillance and tracking devices in the van and on the deliveryman,” suggested Jiang Youshan.

“Indeed, this is an impeccable trap. It will guide us straight to Wang Yun. With our preparations in place this time, he’ll find it impossible to run,” declared Wang Yue, her eyes alight with resolve.

“Ha, excellent. We’ll have Ames and his team tail the van. Meanwhile, our program inspection officers will carry out routine checks at the intersection and plant surveillance and tracking devices in the van and on the delivery person,” Kolyev agreed with a decisive nod.

As promised, here’s the second part.
