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

Within the abandoned building in Hu Mountain’s Residential Area, four drug traffickers, terror evident in their expressions, backed against one another, cautiously advancing downward.

An unseen enemy. Ominous sounds. Unpredictable, phantom-like assaults. Every element made their skin crawl.

From an original group of fifteen, only four remained. Was it because they were too weak? Or had they acted thoughtlessly? Certainly not.

The idea of taking hostages as leverage had crossed their minds. However, as soon as one ventured into the room, he met his untimely demise. Their primary objective was self-preservation, not a mutual downfall.

If holding hostages could guarantee an effortless getaway, they would have secured them right from the start. Yet, that was a pipe dream. Negotiating with the police? That was a joke.

In this territory, even if the authorities provided them with a helicopter, how far could they realistically get? Such an offer would merely render them easy targets.

Now, confronted with a foe as elusive as a specter, their despair deepened. Their spirit of resistance had crumbled entirely. Their sole thought was to flee this nightmare.

Wang Yun stood on the second floor and flashed a smile, extracting a stick of gum from his pocket. As he chewed, his eyes narrowed on the exit beneath him. Positioned behind him was the room where a family of four was bound.

Since initiating his assault, Wang Yun had steadfastly guarded the vicinity of that room, all to prevent the traffickers from leveraging the family. Fortunately, after dispatching one intruder inside, the rest hesitated to step inside again.

“Stay alert to the top, keep eyes up,” hushed voices murmured, followed by soft footfalls coming from below.

With acute sound localization, he stood still on the second level, holding on to the rough exterior of the unfinished building and slowly lifting his firearm.

“Damn! Big Brother’s truly invincible. That stance… just insanely cool. Beyond cool!”

“Unbelievable! There were fifteen drug dealers, and they were utterly decimated. Scared out of their minds, they fled! Isn’t our Big Brother absolutely terrifying?”

“Haha, epic! Now we know what a real ‘outlaw’ is. Big Brother took out more than a dozen thugs, cementing his status as the ultimate ‘Super Outlaw,’ an unparalleled fugitive in history.”

“Drug dealer bandits: We fear ghosts, yet ghosts have never harmed us. We don’t fear people, but Big Brother has left us battered and bruised!”

“That was an epic scene! Even blockbuster films and iconic TV shows can’t compare to this!”

In the livestream room, the audience watched in awe as Wang Yun pulled out a stick of gum, popped it into his mouth, and raised his arm, aiming downward. Their faces were filled with unadulterated admiration. This was a masterclass in action.

The cover of the night provided Wang Yun with the perfect camouflage. The four drug traffickers emerged from the building, their bodies trembling with fear. The eerie silence that enveloped the area only heightened their sense of dread.

“Split up and run! We can’t see clearly in this darkness, and neither can he,” said the middle-aged leader, making a rational decision to scatter and flee.

It would be more difficult for them to be targeted individually while running through the darkness. As one, the traffickers bolted, darting off in different directions.

From his advantageous position on the second floor, Wang Yun’s eyes narrowed and he lifted his arm. A gunshot pierced the silence, followed by a strangled scream.

“First kill!” Wang Yun’s lips curled into a satisfied smirk, and he murmured to himself as he casually blew a bubble with his gum.

Another gunshot. “Double kill!”

The night air was again filled with the echo of gunshots and bodies hitting the ground.

Another gunshot. “Tripe kill!”

“Die!” the middle-aged leader roared as he turned and sprayed aimlessly with bullets with his machine gun. Another gunshot and the machine gun fire halted abruptly in the next second. ℞ÁℕȱʙĘṡ

“No!” Crying out in sheer desperation, the middle-aged tried frantically to escape.

“You’re the last one left. Time to die!” Wang Yun loudly declared, laughing as he mimicked the sound of a machine gun, “Ratatatat!”

“No, no, no!” The panic-stricken middle-aged thug became even more terrified. In his fear, he stumbled and fell to the ground. Wang Yun chuckled at the sight, raised his pistol, and took aim.

Exclamations of raw shock and admiration erupted from the chim in his clothes.

“Fantastic job, We’re three minutes out.”

“Unbelievable, absolutely unbelievable! Man, you’re insanely strong!”

The livestream was inundated with a flood of ‘666’ comments. “Incredible, that was just too epic!”

Wang Yun allowed himself a satisfied smile. His prodigious skills and unparalleled physical prowess enabled him to eliminate all fifteen drug traffickers. He then moved toward the room where the hostages were held.

Upon seeing Wang Yun enter, hope instantly lit up the faces of the young couple. They looked at him with a mixture of relief and anticipation. Wang Yun walked over to them, carefully removing the tape from the mouths of the young boy and girl, and untied their restraints. He did the same for the couple.

“Thank you so much, thank you for rescuing us!” Overwhelmed with emotion, the young couple quickly knelt down to express their gratitude.

“There’s no need for thanks,” Wang Yun replied, assisting them back to their feet.

“Uncle, are you a cop? You’re so awesome!” The little boy looked up at Wang Yun with admiration.

“I’m not a police officer. I am, well, let’s call me a ‘Phantom Thief’ who does good deeds. Do you know what a ‘Phantom Thief’ is?”

“I don’t know, but when I grow up, I want to be a ‘phantom thief’ that does good deeds too.”

“You should aim to become a police officer when you’re older. That way, you can protect your parents and sister.”

“Alright, then I’ll become a police officer.”

Wang Yun’s conversation with the little boy filled the air. Nearby, the young couple, who had narrowly escaped a life-threatening situation, were visibly moved, tears of emotion in their eyes.

***

“What a heartwarming moment!”

“Absolutely, it’s fortunate they’re all safe, all thanks to our hero, Wang Yun.”

“I’m beyond touched. Who would’ve thought a ‘pretend’ thug could wipe out a whole gang of actual thugs? Big brother, from now on, I’ll forever be a fan!”

“He’s the kind of idol truly worthy of our admiration!”

In the livestream, every viewer watching this touching moment couldn’t help but smile. Suddenly, the blare of police sirens could be heard.

“Stay here, both of you. Keep an eye on the kids and don’t go outside,” Wang Yun advised the young couple. He felt that the scene outside could be too disturbing for them. The couple nodded their agreement, holding their children close.

As Wang Yun emerged, he was greeted by dozens of police officers. Leading them were two middle-aged individuals whose eyes lit up with admiration and respect upon seeing Wang Yun.

The narcotics squad leader came over and warmly patted Wang Yun’s shoulder, “You’re quite the young talent. How about joining our provincial narcotics unit?”

The man standing next to Liu removed Liu’s hand from Wang Yun’s shoulder and added with a smile, “Squad Leader Liu, this young man is from our own Nancheng. Our Nancheng Police Bureau is interested in recruiting you especially.”

“Ah, well… I haven’t thought about it yet. At the moment, I’m still a ‘fugitive’.” Wang Yun grinned as he pointed to the tech chip affixed to his chest.

“Haha, don’t worry about it. Once the show wraps up, come see me. My name is Fang Jianguo, but just call me Old Fang. Remember that, okay?” Director Fang extended his hand with a hearty laugh, sharing a friendly handshake with Wang Yun.

“After the show wraps up, I could very well become a billionaire,” Wang Yun responded, smiling.

This left Director Fang momentarily puzzled.

***

“Hahaha, this is priceless. Can you believe the Yun Province Narcotics Department and our Nancheng Bureau are both keen on recruiting Wang Yun, who’s technically a ‘fugitive’?”

“They’re not just keen, they’re trying to win him over! And by the looks of it, they’re eager to snatch him away from us. But given his abilities, he could very well bag that billion-yuan prize.”

“Why wouldn’t I relish the luxuries that come with being a billionaire?”

The livestream audience burst into laughter when they saw the two leaders vying for Wang Yun’s attention and heard his cheeky remarks.

***

Hearing Wang Yun’s words, Director Fang was slightly taken aback and displayed a sly grin.

“Let’s make a deal. If you manage to secure that billion-yuan reward from the show, I won’t insist you join us. However, if you don’t get it and end up ‘arrested,’ consider joining our Bureau. How does that sound?” Director Fang assured him with a mischievous smile, “You have my word, you’ll be well-compensated.”

“That billion-yuan prize is as good as mine,” Wang Yun confidently shrugged.

“If you don’t get it, consider working with us. You’re young, you ought to have some career aspirations, right?” Director Fang pressed.

Wang Yun offered a nod and a smile, without outright declining, “I’ll give it some thought.”

“Hahaha, excellent.” Director Fang squinted his eyes slightly, resembling a cunning old fox.

Director Fang and his team exchanged a few more courtesies with Wang Yun, cleaned up the area, and then took their leave. The broadcast of the Skynet Operation program continued. Wang Yun surveyed the wreckage of his destroyed home and belongings, shaking his head in disbelief.

“Given the unexpected turn of events, it wouldn’t be too much to ask the production team to get me some mats, blankets, and other essentials, would it?” Wang Yun spoke up.

The production team was momentarily puzzled but quickly responded, “On the way,” through the tech chip embedded in his clothes.

“Props to the production team for always picking up the pieces!”

“Get some quality mats and blankets for our big bro. Take good care of him; we don’t want him catching a chill!”

“Who could have predicted this? This is absolute insanity!”

“Thinking you’d be safe in an unfinished building, huh, big bro? Bet you didn’t expect to run into a gang of real thugs. But kudos to you, big bro! Congrats on a legendary win!”

“Legendary win! Legendary win!”

The livestream was abuzz with comments of viewers laughing and echoing the sentiment. By the end, the phrase “Legendary win!” flooded the screen. Indeed, it was a legendary win. With his incredible skills and accomplishments, Wang Yun proved he was a real bandit. One more formidable than could be imagined in real life. This unexpected incident not only went viral across the country but also turned Wang Yun into an internet phenomenon.

His extraordinary strength and intellect left everyone in awe, and he quickly amassed a following of devoted admirers. His selfless act of risking his life to save four hostages demonstrated character worthy of emulation.

That night, Wang Yun set the internet on fire.
