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

Chapter 101 Twelve Experts Join, Perfect Counter, Crucial Clue! (part 2)

“Hmm? Wow, so many people this time? Are all these captain-level?”

“Could it be? Could it be? Adding over a dozen captains at once?”

“Wow, are all these captains?”

“Man, seriously a dozen captains?”

“The program team is not joking around!”

As more than ten individuals entered, all the viewers showed astonishment. More than ten captains? Was this level of reinforcement really necessary?

“Let me introduce them to you,” said the program’s executive producer, walking in with a slight smile.

“The more experts, the better,” Wu Mingyu remarked, smiling at the group.

“Indeed, they all are experts,” the executive producer chuckled. “Let me introduce you. This is Hong Jian, a top-level actuary, also skilled in character habit analysis and profiling.”

“Hello everyone, I’ll bring good news about the capture of Wang Yun shortly,” said Hong Jian, a middle-aged man in a suit with glasses, greeting them with a mild smile.

“These three gentlemen holding computers are core elite members of the Red Hacker Alliance,” the executive producer continued, pointing to the three young men with laptops.

“Just call us the Red Hackers,” one of the young men said lightly.

“These four gentlemen are very powerful combat operatives from a special place, which I cannot disclose here,” the executive producer pointed to the four young men behind and continued his introductions.

“Just call us Sky Eagles, we specialize in aerial combat and pursuit,” one of the young men said expressionlessly.

“These two gentlemen are skilled snipers and observers,” the executive producer continued with the introductions.

“Just call us Snipers,” both men said in unison.

The two young men looked about seventy percent similar to each other and were immediately recognizable as twins. They briefly introduced themselves without revealing their names.

“Finally, these two gentlemen. One is the top domestic magician decrypter, Master Wu Hua, and the other is a top domestic mine-clearing expert, Hao Jiancheng,” the executive producer pointed out the last two middle-aged men.

Both men nodded slightly in greeting.

“Huh? What’s going on this time? The captains who have come seem a bit unusual.”

“It is strange indeed. Snipers? Pilots? A mine-clearing expert? A magician decrypter? Are these really captains?”

“Wow, I get it now! Since Big Brother excels in magic and deception, the program team has brought in a top magician decrypter!”

“It’s easier to break a magic trick than to create one. And the mine-clearing expert, of course, is to counter Big Brother’s trap techniques. As for the pilots and the four experts in aerial combat, they’re to counter Big Brother’s escape methods. Big Brother may be good at parkour and skateboarding, but can he compete with a helicopter?”

“Doe this mean that to capture Big Brother helicopters will involved?”

“Snipers are the ultimate hidden killers! Once they spot him, will they take him out with a single shot?”

“Red Hacker Alliance, is it our country’s top Red Hacker Alliance? The one that once infiltrated the Pentagon in the United States, ranking at the top in the world’s hacker and red hacker alliances? And they’ve sent three core experts here?”

“Wow, I get the program team’s intention now. Big Brother is very powerful, right? Well, if your magic tricks are strong, I’ll bring in a top magician decrypter. If your traps are formidable, I’ll bring in a top mine-clearing expert. Big Brother excels in many areas, so we’ll bring all the top experts who can counter him. This is going to be a group beatdown!”

“Oh my god! Is the program project team planning a group assault tactic? No matter how skilled you are individually and with various abilities, we’ll bring in top experts to counter all your skills. That’s incredible!”

“This is like a gathering of great minds. What’s the role of that actuary?”

“A gathering of great minds, a beatdown on Big Brother. ‘Three cobblers with their wits combined equal Zhuge Liang,’ indeed. This strategy is really impressive!”

In the livestream, the audience listened to the executive producer’s introduction and were initially puzzled. However, they quickly grasped the idea.

Using two famous sayings described it best, one about the most famous military strategist in history and the other by a renowned sage.

The first saying goes, “Three cobblers with their wits combined equal Zhuge Liang!” The second is, “Among any three people walking, I will find something to learn for sure.”

What did this mean? It meant that even if you were very powerful and intelligent, you could still lose when facing three elites. Even if you were a sage with vast knowledge, among three people, there was likely someone from whom you could learn something.

To put it simply, it meant that there was strength in numbers. A multitude of fists could defeat even the most skilled master.

In this world, the most formidable was not an individual but a group. Could an individual really stand against an organization, against a team? Personal IQ might be high, but weren’t all top inventions and scientific breakthroughs the result of a group’s effort? Even with an IQ of 200, you’re no match for a group of 150 people with an IQ of 100 each. Greater numbers equate to greater strength.

The experts the program team invited this time were not just any extraordinary individuals or those with dazzling records and renowned reputations. Instead, each one possessed skills that could counteract Wang Yun’s strengths.

“Hmm?”

Wu Mingyu, Kolyev, Ying Yuezi, Wang Yue, and Wu Yaoming, upon learning about the new members, were momentarily taken aback but quickly understood.

“Welcome, everyone. From now on, we are one team,” Wu Mingyu’s eyes twinkled as he warmly greeted everyone.

“Hehe, we are here to assist the captains mainly. In general, there’s not much we can help with,” said the actuary Hong Jian with a smile.

The rest of the group nodded in agreement.

“That’s more than enough. Just a little help from all of you can increase our chances of capturing Wang Yun by fifty percent,” Wang Yue added.

She too hadn’t expected so many experts to join this time. No, this should be considered a perfect team tailored to counter Wang Yun.

“Are you really from the Red Hacker Alliance? I’ve heard of you,” said Ames, gazing at the three young members of the Red Hacker Alliance with a fervent look.

“Your skills are commendable, but individual strength can’t compare to that of a team, especially in the field of computing,” replied the three from the Red Hacker Alliance with a smile.

“It’s an honor to work alongside you three,” Ames acknowledged, nodding in agreement and walking over to extend his hand in respect.

This was his way of showing regard for the trio from the Red Hacker Alliance. In the realm of computing, the power of a team is the most formidable.

Consider platforms like WeChat or Taobao, could you breach their security without leaving a trace? It was impossible! Even if you somehow managed to breach them, their teams would be able to trace you back. If there truly was a hacker who could breach such systems without leaving any trace, they’d already be the world’s richest person. But so far, no such person existed. This was the terrifying aspect of a team’s power.

“With your help, we believe we can quickly take down Wang Yun,” Kolyev said, his eyes sparkling with anticipation.

“At this moment, I have a piece of information that could lead us to Wang Yun and his group quickly,” suddenly interjected Hong Jian.

“Hmm?” This statement piqued the interest of Wu Mingyu and the other Captains.

“I work for Nancheng Bank. Yesterday, when Wang Yun and his team demanded two million, I instructed our staff to prepare two million in brand new bills and recorded their serial numbers. This means I know the serial numbers of the money they have. Although these numbers are long, just looking at the last few digits makes it easy to track.”

“As long as we issue a reward notice, any merchant who receives this money can report to us. Once they report to us, we will know where they have appeared,” Hong Jian stated.

This revelation made Wu Mingyu and the other four captains narrow their eyes thoughtfully. It was a critical piece of information.

“The serial numbers of all that money have been recorded? Then this indeed sounds like a good approach,” Wu Mingyu’s eyes sparkled with intrigue.

“Let’s hold off on issuing the reward notice for now. I still have a few unresolved questions, and we need to address all these doubts,” Ying Yuezi spoke up. “Firstly, how did Wang Yun and his group manage to purchase so many trap-making materials? Secondly, do they possess disguise masks? Yesterday’s factory operation was clearly a setup by Wang Yun, but what gave him the confidence and resources to plan such an operation?”

“Exactly,” Wang Yue agreed. “I have a theory. He dared to set this trap because he had something to rely on, which must be the masks. How did he acquire these masks? We need to find out.”

“Our side has downloaded Wang Yun’s ‘Death Factory’ game, and we discovered a set of data within the game that can locate your phone,” one of the Red Hacker Alliance members interjected, just as they finished speaking.

“What?”

This information made Wu Mingyu and the others look even more intently.

“So, the ‘Death Factory’ game we downloaded yesterday was a trap in itself,” Wu Yaoming expressed his astonishment, his gaze sweeping over the newly joined members. A smile appeared on his face.

“With all of you joining us, I truly believe we can capture Wang Yun.”
