Chapter 149: Big Brother, sightseeing during a fugitive show? Assassins lie in wait!

“Taking advantage of these relatively safe days, I’ll enjoy myself in Xiyun City,” Wang Yun pondered after finishing his meal in the restaurant.

Having arrived in this new city, he had already memorized the map and details of its streets. His plan was to explore for two days before leaving Xiyun City.

Given that the program inspection teams from various countries were aware of his presence in Xiyun City, the safest strategy was to leave. Now, without his subordinates, he doubted that the teams could pinpoint his location amidst his constant evasion. Then, he would flee across the world.

Catch him? Wishful thinking.

Wang Yun exuded confidence.

“I’ll find a place to rest first,” he mused, heading to a bath center, skillfully avoiding surveillance cameras to relax.

An hour later, inspection teams from various agencies made their way into Xiyun City.

“First task. We need to identify each hostage and fugitive’s face, then issue warrants directly. Their getaway isn’t just confined to Xiyun City, they could escape beyond its borders. Especially Wang Yun. If he sneaks out of Xiyun City, locating him will become even harder. The immediate priority is to lock down the entire city. We need to coordinate with program inspection teams from other countries. We need to unite our front to seal off Xiyun City. We can’t afford to act independently.”

Inside China’s program inspection team, Wu Mingyu decisively spoke up.

Wu Yaoming, Kolyev, and the others nodded in agreement, quickly reaching out to the Captains of program inspection teams from other nations.

The urgency of the situation was clear to the Captains of the international teams. They had to secure a lockdown on Xiyun City to prevent Wang Yun from fleeing to another location. Otherwise, apprehending him would be akin to searching for a needle in a haystack.

“Let’s collaborate with other program inspection teams to secure Xiyun City. We now possess biometric data on Wang Yun’s physique. Using scanners, we can match his identity regardless of any disguises he might employ. Distribute these scanners to all program officers. Our country is determined to capture Wang Yun,” declared Captain Everick, his eyes shining with determination.

The United States program inspection team had prepared for this moment since Wang Yun’s takeover of Longshan Tunnel, employing advanced technological scans to identify individuals based on their physical and skeletal structure. Once collected, this data ensured a match on subsequent scans, unveiling Wang Yun’s location despite any disguises.

Other program inspection teams harbored their unique identification techniques, such as retina scanning, among others.

Thus, the collective arrest effort by the program inspection teams commenced.

Wang Yun spent a day resting in a bathhouse. He had no idea how many of his subordinates were arrested. And he didn’t care.

The next morning, Wang Yun left the bathhouse, stepping confidently into the day ahead.

“Is anyone going to Xiyun Valley? Come on over, free shuttle service available!”

A short distance from where Wang Yun was, there was a bus station. As Wang Yun approached, he was greeted by the shouts of those around. Smiling, he walked over, drawn by the calls.

“Hey there, young man, are you heading to Xiyun Valley? To visit Xiyun City without seeing Xiyun Valley would be a waste of a trip,” a nearby tour guide warmly asked upon seeing him approach.

“Yeah, thought I’d check it out,” Wang Yun responded with a nod.

“Great, hop on the bus and wait a bit, we’ll be departing in ten minutes,” the guide said with enthusiasm.

Boarding the bus, Wang Yun found it already quite filled with people. He sat down, surveying his surroundings.

“What’s Big Brother planning? Is he actually going on a trip?”

“Wow, Big Brother’s heading to Xiyun Valley? Isn’t that a scenic spot? Is he going for fun?”

“??? Big Brother, you’re in a fugitive program, shouldn’t you be on the run? Instead, you’re heading to a scenic area for fun, has this turned into a travel show?”

“Taking us along for the scenic views and fun, can you believe it?”

Meanwhile, viewers in the livestream were visibly stunned by the unfolding scene. Puzzled and amused, they commented about the situation.

Was Wang Yun visiting Xiyun City for tourism, venturing into a scenic area for leisure?

Was this still the Skynet Operation program? Was it still a show about a fugitive on the run?

Wang Yun was oblivious to the discussions swirling in the livestream. Sitting on the bus, it left promptly ten minutes later, heading toward Xiyun City’s renowned scenic attraction, Xiyun Valley.

“Wang Yun is now on his way to Xiyun Valley.”

However, in a certain location in Xiyun City, three figures were inside a room. They watched the footage broadcasted from another city as their eyes sparkled slightly upon seeing the images in the video.

All three figures were women. One adult and two young women. They cleaned the firearms in front of them and concealed them on their persons.

“Let’s get going. We’ll head there early, disguise ourselves as ordinary tourists, get close to him, and then strike directly,” the woman in the middle instructed.

“Okay,” the two young women nodded emphatically.

“As long as he is within our shooting range, we’ll shoot directly. Make sure we’re not detected beforehand and don’t alert him. You should all be clear about Wang Yun’s capabilities. We can’t afford to fail. If we don’t succeed, we could be in danger,” the woman repeated with caution.

“Don’t worry, Sister Zhao, we understand.”

The young women reassured.

“We’re women; he might be less cautious around us. But that doesn’t mean we can afford to be careless,” the woman added. “After this job, we can retire.”

“Rest assured, Sister Zhao, we won’t take our lives lightly.”

The young women answered.

“Let’s go,” the woman stood up, gesturing for them to follow.

The trio drove quickly towards Xiyun Valley, keeping a close watch on Wang Yun’s movements through the livestream.

Xiyun Valley wasn’t far from the heart of Xiyun City, merely a half-hour drive. Once Wang Yun arrived, he noticed a crowd of tourists at the valley’s entrance. He disembarked and, alongside the guide and a group of about a dozen others, proceeded inward.

As Wang Yun stepped off the vehicle, not too far away, two young women were huddled over a smartphone. A woman, standing some distance from the duo, was also engrossed in her phone. The screens displayed Wang Yun’s live broadcast.

Given the first-person perspective of the broadcast, they couldn’t see Wang Yun’s appearance. The live feed allowed them only a rough estimate of his whereabouts. Yet, they didn’t look up or search for Wang Yun directly. It seemed as though they were genuinely engrossed in their phones.

They were aware of Wang Yun’s heightened sense of alertness. Therefore, their own level of caution was exceptionally high. They resolved not to act hastily, but once they decided to strike, they aimed to kill.
