Wu Yaoming’s helplessness made the program staff feel a bit sorry for him. They imdiately stepped forward to help.
“The whole process is being recorded by caras. And there are surveillance caras on the scene, which will show who found Hu Hanqing first. Everyone, please disperse. The purpose of finding Hu Hanqing is to catch him. Let our program inspection Captain complete the task first. As for other friends, you can co to to register,” the staff shouted, and everyone dispersed imdiately.
Wu Yaoming instantly felt the air was fresher. He finally got away and ca to the riverbank.
“Captain Wu!”
As soon as he walked to the river, he heard Wu Mingyu shouting behind him.
Looking back, he saw Professor Vasda holding a large box of items, with program inspectors following behind him, also carrying large boxes.
“You are here too,” Wu Yaoming said.
Wu Mingyu’s eyes were full of determination.
“We have analyzed Hu Hanqing’s behavior. He must still be in the river. He wants to deliberately confuse us and use the sensation he created to inform the fugitives. At the sa ti, he is diverting our attention and then sneaking in,” Wu Mingyu explained their speculations from the observation room in just a few sentences.
After listening, Wu Yaoming looked at the cardboard box in Vasda’s hand.
“What are you going to do?” Wu Yaoming asked.
Vasda patted the cardboard box.
“Hu Hanqing’s actions have already taken place, and we can’t stop that. What we can do now is to catch him and at least make Wang Yun suffer so losses.”
As he said that, he opened the cardboard box. Inside were bottles of liquid that looked similar to laundry detergent.
“This is a drug that can temporarily paralyze creatures with nervous systems while keeping them conscious. The more developed the nervous system, the more effective the drug. If Hu Hanqing is still in the river and cos into contact with this drug, his body will slowly beco paralyzed, and he will float up uncontrollably. Even if he has extraordinary abilities, it won’t help.”
After Vasda finished speaking, he opened the bottle under Wu Yaoming’s shocked gaze and poured it directly into the river.
Of course, these “drugs” were actually substances that decompose impurities in the river, not real nerve-paralyzing agents. After all, it was a show, and they couldn’t harm the river’s ecosystem.

Simultaneously, the producer notified Hu Hanqing.
“Professor Vasda has poured a drug into the river. From now on, your limbs cannot have any autonomous movent. Imagine you are paralyzed, with only your mind being awake.”
Hu Hanqing was swimming towards the bridge when suddenly he heard the news. Startled, he opened his mouth and accidentally swallowed two or three mouthfuls of river water. The stench instantly filled his mouth.
‘No way…that’s it. I’m done,’ Hu Hanqing thought in despair.
At this ti, Wang Yun, who was watching Hu Hanqing’s video from the mountain, was unaware of this.
“Brother Hu, what’s going on? You know how to swim and you’re getting choked?” Wang Yun said jokingly.
Brother Hu was suffering but couldn’t say anything. According to the program rules, Brother Hu would appear to be unconsciously affected by the drug in the water. So right now, he was still normal. He just needed to act as if he were affected by the drug soon. ŘãΝǒβÊ𐌔
“Hold on for a while longer. There’s still one kiloter to go before you reach the bridge,” Wang Yun continued to encourage Brother Hu.
‘One kiloter! Let’s fight to the death before the effect of the potion kicks in! Once I swim under the bridge, even if my limbs lose consciousness, I might be able to hide with the bridge as cover.’
At this mont, Brother Hu clung to this desperate hope.
But just as Wang Yun finished speaking, Brother Hu saw three or four people suddenly appear at the riverside. They bent down and poured so liquid directly into the river.
The red liquid instantly spread.
“After being exposed to the potion, it will take effect within one minute,” the producer’s voice sounded again.
‘Damn! It’s too late!’
Brother Hu increased his speed to the maximum. The bridge ahead was getting closer, but no matter how fast he was or how close he got, he couldn’t outrun the spreading liquid. The red liquid quickly surrounded him, and his body was soon covered with it.
The one-minute countdown began.
The audience in the livestream had no idea what was happening. They were watching Wang Yun’s livestream, and the system automatically blocked them from viewing other streams.
“Brother Hu, why is the water around you turning red?”
Although Wang Yun didn’t know their plan, he could see the obvious red liquid.
Brother Hu couldn’t speak, but his swimming speed increased significantly. His breathing beca rapid, and several tis he opened his mouth too wide and inhaled too hard, swallowing a lot of dirty water. Despite this, Brother Hu couldn’t afford to slow down.
Wang Yun watched Brother Hu in the video and sensed sothing was wrong.
“No, this red liquid must be a drug. A drug that can make Brother Hu easily detectable.”
Wang Yun imdiately guessed what was happening.
He stood up suddenly. He was in the mountains, not far from the base.
“I have to save Brother Hu. He was discovered because he was acting as bait. What should I do?”
Wang Yun’s mind began to race. He looked at the branches above his head. It was afternoon, and for so reason, the wind had picked up, causing the branches to rustle loudly.
Wang Yun stared at the branches bent by the wind, and a bold idea instantly ca into his mind.
With an IQ of 300, he could no longer be defined by ordinary people’s thinking.
“Brother Hu is currently in the river. Even if he is caught, it will be in the river. They don’t want to kill Brother Hu now. They need to catch him alive to find out my whereabouts. Since they want to catch him in the middle of the river, they have yachts, but I don’t, and I have no chance to get one. Besides, the surrounding riverside must be swarming with inspectors. Even if there are few inspectors, there are many spectators around who want to watch the excitent and earn money.”
Water and land were both out of the question. Now, only the air, the sky.
Wang Yun muttered rapidly.
Everyone in the livestream heard his words and felt a chill run down their spine.
“No way, what is Big Brother planning to do!”
“Big Brother, you’re not thinking of getting a plane to rescue him, are you?”
“Impossible, a plane is too big and noisy. Before Big Brother can even reach the river, he’ll probably be shot down by the program inspectors.”
“Big Brother can’t get a plane right now, do you think he’s Doraemon?”
“I know! Kaito! Kaito Kid! The Phantom Thief Kid is online again!”
