Are You Crazy? You’re Telling Me This Is a Fugitive TV Show?
Chapter 39 A Shocking Gift from the Fugitive Stuns the Audience

“Deliver this to Nancheng TV Station, 23rd floor, Skynet Operations Team. Be careful, it’s addressed to Zhang Xingchen.”

Standing at the bottom of Nansu Plaza Tower, Wang Yun issued these instructions to the awaiting delivery boy, who promptly nodded, took the notebook, and left.

Once the notebook was safely in the delivery boy’s hands, Wang Yun nonchalantly walked away, heading to a place where he could grab a meal and rest. He was getting ready for tomorrow’s audacious plan.

***

“What the hell just happened?”

“He actually wrote in the notebook that he’s planning to surprise Zhang Xingchen tomorrow at the Nansu Plaza? What on Earth is Big Brother up to?”

“Isn’t this a blatant challenge? A fugitive taking on the captain of an inspection team?”

“Wow, 666. I’ve been watching Big Brother all morning as he wandered around buying all sorts of strange items. It feels like he’s planning something huge. He’s going head-to-head with Zhang Xingchen!”

Watching the livestream, the once-composed audience was now abuzz, their eyes wide and mouths agape as they witnessed Wang Yun’s audacious actions. The atmosphere was thick with anticipation and confusion.

“Any leads yet?”

“None so far.”

“Searching for one man in the sprawling metropolis of Nancheng is like looking for a needle in a haystack. Everyone, continue your search diligently. Officers One and Two, head back to the hospital and see if you can dig up any further information.”

Back in the command center room, Zhang Xingchen was coordinating with his team. With Wang Yun now on the priority arrest list, the team’s full attention was set on capturing him.

After the disappointment of yesterday’s failed efforts, Zhang Xingchen led his team in a thorough review of the surveillance footage.

A full day of searching had passed, and they still hadn’t found any trace of Wang Yun.

At that moment, a voice echoed throughout the command center room, “Congratulations, Captain Hong Feng. All ten fugitives have been successfully apprehended, making your team the first to complete their arrest mission.”

Upon hearing this announcement, Zhang Xingchen was slightly taken aback.

Seated nearby, several team captains, along with Shen Hao and Liu Qingqing, all shifted their gaze toward the leader of the fourth team, Hong Feng.

“Wow, it’s only the third day and Captain Hong Feng has already apprehended all the fugitives?” Liu Qingqing exclaimed, clearly impressed.

“Captain Hong Feng, you’ve really been hiding your talents. To be the first one to complete the arrest operation is truly remarkable,” Shen Hao gave him a thumbs-up in admiration.

“It’s just good fortune, nothing more,” Hong Feng replied, chuckling modestly.

“You certainly live up to your reputation as the country’s premier profile writer and non-fiction author. Well done,” said Jiang Youshan, nodding in appreciation as he looked at Hong Feng.

“Senior, it’s merely a stroke of luck on my part. I still have much to learn compared to you,” Hong Feng responded, still humbly downplaying his achievements.

“Ha, no need for humility. Talent is talent. It brings me great joy to see the younger generation surpassing us. The public will certainly be safer with you all on duty,” Jiang Youshan remarked, shaking his head contentedly.

“I’m only in the lead for the moment, the outcome is still far from decided,” Hong Feng added, smiling.

“According to the rules, Captain Hong Feng is now eligible to arrest fugitives from other teams, allowing him to accumulate even more points,” announced the executive producer’s voice in the room.

“Amazing! Who would have thought Captain Hong Feng would be the first to successfully capture all his fugitives? Truly remarkable.”

“Captain Hong Feng is indeed exceptional. He’s one of the nation’s top profile writers, adept at placing himself in the fugitives’ boots based on their records.”

“I assumed the first to complete all arrests would either be Elder Jiang Youshan or Wu Mingyu. Never thought it’d be Hong Feng.”

“Hong Feng is incredibly skilled. He has this uncanny ability to predict the fugitives’ escape routes during the arrest process. He’s a living nightmare for criminals.”

“Right now, aside from the fugitives under Zhang Xingchen, only four others remain at large. The other three captains have only one or two left to catch.”

The achievement of being the first team to complete their task triggered a wave of excitement and chatter in the live stream, captivating countless viewers who engaged in animated discussions.

“Captain Xingchen, would you like some assistance?” Hong Feng turned toward Zhang Xingchen and offered.

“I’d appreciate that, Captain Hong Feng. However, I want to handle Wang Yun myself. Feel free to take on the others,” Zhang Xingchen responded, nodding.

Given that he had the most remaining fugitives, he was more than happy to receive Hong Feng’s assistance.

“Really?” Hong Feng raised an eyebrow and grinned. “I was hoping for a bit more of a challenge.”

“My mentor once said, ‘Fall down seven times, stand up eight.’ I’ve set a personal goal. I might end up last, but I must catch Wang Yun myself. I won’t rest easy until he’s arrested,” Zhang Xingchen said earnestly.

“Haha, that’s the spirit. Captain Xingchen has ambition,” Shen Hao declared, laughing.

“Sounds good,” Hong Feng chimed in, a smile on his face. “A little tip, Captain Xingchen, don’t overlook the reliability of surveillance footage. Wang Yun was last seen at the hospital, so focus your search there. Go through all the camera feeds from the moment he entered up until now.”

“Thank you for the advice, Captain Hong Feng. One of our officers has just suggested the same thing. He’s already on his way back to the hospital,” Zhang Xingchen nodded in appreciation. “Whether I stumble twice, three times, or even more, I won’t be deterred.”

Watching the livestream, numerous online viewers took in Zhang Xingchen’s words, leading to a collective emotional sigh as well as praises from the viewers.

“Captain Xingchen has really matured!”

“Absolutely, Brother Xingchen has been incredibly focused lately. His rate of growth is astonishing.”

“Captain Zhang Xingchen, a delivery person has brought something for you,” announced a staff member, entering the room with a somewhat peculiar expression. S~ᴇaʀᴄh the NʘvᴇlFirᴇ.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

“A delivery? But I didn’t order or buy anything,” said Zhang Xingchen, visibly confused.

“We’ve verified it,” the staff member said, lips slightly pursed. “It’s from the fugitive Wang Yun. He sent it through a courier.”

At that moment, the atmosphere in the room grew tense, while the livestream erupted into a flurry of activity and speculation.
