This celebrity became even more popular after being exposed of having multiple girlfriends-Chapter 370 - 299: Program Black Hole_2

Everyone finally felt a sense of urgency and rushed one after another to evacuate through the secret passage.

Along the way, the sounds of explosions and gunfire were incessant, creating a tense atmosphere.

Only after they had exited the hotel, passed through a long alleyway, and arrived at an open space could everyone finally take a break.

This was the opening time set aside by the program team.

The opening naturally began with an introduction of the show’s participants.

"Congratulations to all the Super Killers for successfully escaping the police encirclement. Our Super Killers come from various places, and some may not know each other yet, so let’s introduce ourselves."

This self-introduction segment was, of course, meant for Wu Mu and another guest.

Though the other guest was in his forties or fifties, he was quite outgoing. He had crafted a backstory for himself as a Super Killer with a history of assassinating major figures from multiple countries and performed a series of impressive rolls and crowd-pleasers that looked quite convincing.

The other members also chimed in, using his movies as a conversation starter.

When it came to Wu Mu... Seeing Wu Mu’s lackluster introduction in English, even the director of the program team couldn’t help but frown.

Without speaking, they could almost ignore him, but once he spoke in English and paired it with his lethargic self-introduction,

It instantly created a sense of disjunction, as if there were two different shows entirely.

This was compounded by the other members who appeared welcoming on the surface but made no effort to continue the conversation...

The program team director shook his head; if there had been a sliver of hope before, it was now completely gone.

They would likely have to cut a lot of his footage later on.

After the self-introductions, the scriptwriter came forward to continue the process.

"Your mission is to escort the top-secret cargo in your hands to a designated location and escape from Busan."

"Members of the Busan City Criminal Police will attempt to capture you... they are real members of the Busan City Criminal Police, not actors. The Busan police have also joined this mission."

"However, they are currently unaware of anyone carrying cargo and escaping, but at most in two hours, the Busan police will find out and then start their pursuit operations. Please make your preparations as soon as possible within these two hours."

The scriptwriter explained the mission.

The show guests were taken aback.

They all had heard the sirens earlier but assumed it was just extras acting.

"The real Busan police? If they really want to catch us, how could we possibly escape!"

How can one contend with the state machinery in modern society?

Busan might not be as bustling as Seoul, but it’s still a modern city. If the police really wanted to catch them, it would be effortless.

Of course, the program team also understood the disparity, "Your ’organization’ will cover for you during the evacuation and distract the police elsewhere. At that time, only eight officers will be able to be dispatched."

The talk of organizations and killers was, of course, just backstory setup.

It meant that from the capture team’s side, only eight people would be sent to apprehend them; there was no need to worry about being caught in a comprehensive sweep.

"However, although there will be only eight officers in the official pursuit, there is still a logistics team in the background ready to use various surveillance and modern technology to track and locate you. The police will also issue a warrant for you, asking for public assistance."

The program director explained as he showed them a phone, "The wanted posters are already out. Anyone who films your location and uploads it can earn a reward from the police." fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com

It was a multi-platform post issued in collaboration with the Busan police official account by the program team, "wanted" posters spotlighting the show’s participants.

Besides their images, each person had a criminal charge listed.

"Wait, you said I’m a Super Killer, so why is my charge for damaging a single camera on set? And why do you still remember that camera, director?" Lee Taihuan exclaimed.

"And why is my charge scoring 19 on a math test! I already told you I was sick when I took that test. I’m actually a top student from Seoul University!" Jin Huiyan also protested unhappily.

Everyone passed the phone around.

Wu Mu looked and saw his own charge was... being excessively handsome.

"These charges hardly suit our Super Killer identities at all, director. I’d like to request mine be changed to murdering a gang boss!" Li Zhengxun was much more lively than his aloof image on Legendary Voice.

"You guys should see the comments below; they’re hilarious. They’re saying Taihuan deserves to get caught, that they’d report him first if they saw him." He also read the comments under the account.

But as he watched, the corners of his mouth began to stiffen.

"That’s the new episode of ’Super Challenge,’ right? A city-wide manhunt, how exciting."

"hhh, envy crimes for having three daughters, too bad I’m not in Busan, or I would definitely go around reporting them."

The beginning looked quite normal, but...

"Who is that with ’being too handsome’ as a crime? Wu Mu? Why haven’t I heard of this person before?"

"Sounds like a name from Hua Country, is that Wu Mu a guest on the new season of ’Super Challenge’? Does anyone have his information?"

"His ’crime’ is so fitting, looking like that, he should be captured."

Li Zhengxun found that a good number of the comments were asking about Wu Mu’s situation.

Since Wu Mu’s appearance score broke ninety, there definitely was a noticeable surge in people concerned about his looks.

His looks began to get mentioned more and more.

Li Zhengxun reluctantly suppressed his irritation and passed the phone to the next person.

Just wait, once this episode airs, let’s see if these people are still interested in who that bastard is.

Even if he is handsome, he still needs to have a decent performance to match.

So far, Wu Mu’s performance since the start of the program had been entirely negative.

He didn’t believe that with such poor performance, there would still be people who could stand it by then.

However, wasn’t this guy pretty good at playing on that singing show before? Why has he suddenly become so lackluster now?

Is it because of the language barrier?

Li Zhengxun somewhat curiously pondered in his heart.

The language was not an issue.

Wu Mu, who had already learned Korean, naturally understood their conversations and could communicate with them fluently in Korean.

But...

When he received the rough script for the show, Wu Mu started thinking, in an escape program like this, as someone with a gaming background in his past life, he didn’t really have an advantage.

Not knowing how to fight, nor how to counter-track, and having no clue about hiding and fleeing, it wouldn’t be easy to stand out in such a program.

It might seem like only eight people were performing the capture, but if a logistic team used technological means to locate them, and adding the fact that they were wanted, passersby could report their location anytime.

They themselves didn’t carry any personal items, nor were they allowed to use any props except those provided by the show’s crew.

The difficulty was still quite high. Although it wasn’t Seoul University, the South Korean police force would still be careful about their image.

If they let some celebrities get away, it would make the Busan police seem incompetent.

So, the police inherently had an advantage from the start.

If he didn’t want to be caught quickly, he would have to make good use of his strengths.

And his advantage was naturally those rewards drawn by the system, and the information gap since the South Korean police knew nothing about him.

He had been intentionally holding back a move until now; anyway, everyone had screen time at the start, and it wouldn’t fall short of anything.

When he starts to act independently with his partner later on, that’s when he’ll come out and grab the spotlight fiercely!

Joking aside, going on a show without causing a stir, how would he earn points?

Wu Mu pondered in his heart.

Besides, performing worse at the beginning would make causing a stir later on create even more of a contrast, making it easier for the show crew to give him the spotlight.

He was almost gaining experience from grabbing the spotlight.

After introducing the general flow of today’s program, the crew began to distribute equipment to everyone.

"This is the equipment provided by ’The Organization’ for everyone, a cell phone and a map. The cell phone is for contacting each other, and the map indicates some supply points within ’The Organization.’"
