This celebrity became even more popular after being exposed of having multiple girlfriends-Chapter 542 - 382 Great Demon King’s Catching Game? _2

How can it be him!?

He is actually participating in the show recording too!?

And he’s even connected to the Japanese mafia!?

And they’re all contestants; why are they still wandering around while this guy has already become a guest of the mafia!!

Everyone’s mind went into chaos.

Upon realizing the person getting out of the car was Wu Mu, they immediately knew they were done for.

Good news, at least they won’t be silenced by the mafia.

Bad news, they’ll all be eliminated!!

Wu Mu himself was pretty surprised too. Wasn’t he out to rescue people? Why are there other contestants on-site?

Normally, even if he ran into other contestants, he wouldn’t recognize them.

But there’s an acquaintance inside.

Wu Mu smiled at his old acquaintance, An Shengxu, and said, "Hello Officer An, we meet again."

An Shengxu wasn’t feeling good at all, his face displaying a constipation-like expression, especially when feeling the gaze of his temporary teammates around him, making him incredibly uneasy.

Damn it!

You, terrifying whale, are you loyally serving these Hua Country celebrities!

Shen Chenghao and the others also realized they were exposed because of An Shengxu.

But even so, Wu Mu’s entrance made no sense!

"How did you end up mingling with the Japanese mafia!?" Shen Chenghao shouted with a suspicious tone.

No matter how hard he thought, he couldn’t fathom why a celebrity would be involved with the Japanese mafia!

"Haha, let’s talk about this later. Let me handle their situation first." Wu Mu replied with a small smile.

He turned towards the Shenchuan Association, who, upon discovering the ambush, thought they had already contacted Takahashi Tetsu and were setting up a trap, so they tried to use Takahashi Mi as leverage to leave.

But this situation had nothing to do with Takahashi Tetsu.

With Wu Mu stepping in and hearing Takahashi Tetsu’s voice through Wu Mu’s voice changer, the Shenchuan Association’s people immediately became ashen-faced, realizing they had been completely fooled.

There was absolutely no concern for Takahashi Mi from Takahashi Tetsu here, and their basis for using Takahashi Mi’s threat was nonexistent.

The Nishikou Group could entirely allow Wu Mu to harm Takahashi Mi, completely pushing Takahashi Tetsu toward their side, making Takahashi Tetsu utterly hate the Shenchuan Association...

Ultimately, the people from the Shenchuan Association decided to surrender. Although hospital visits after gang battles were inevitable, it wouldn’t result in direct fatalities, even if fighting fiercely; deaths were only in higher ranks, there was no need for them to go all out.

"Brother Wu Mu!"

The rescued Takahashi Mi threw herself into Wu Mu’s arms with tears in her eyes.

If at first, her affection for a celebrity idol was just regular fan admiration, now, after the heroic rescue... her mind was entirely filled with Wu Mu!

Shen Chenghao and his team were again sour-faced.

They joined the show to survive, yet they haven’t even had a decent meal.

This guy, however, is a mafia guest and has a Sakura girl fawning over him! freewēbnoveℓ.com

No, does he film the show that well? Did the production team give him preferential treatment, is there a scandal!

After giving Takahashi Mi a comforting and friendly hug to calm her emotions, Wu Mu turned his gaze towards Shen Chenghao and the others.

...

[No. 15 has been killed by No. 4, remaining: 22]

[No. 18 has been killed by No. 4, remaining: 21]

[No. 7 has been killed by No. 4, remaining: 20]

The production team’s notifications bombarded the contestants’ program phones.

The remaining contestants were stunned.

"Damn, more people were killed? So many at once!"

"Why is it No. 4 again!"

Contestant Kim Keen-Woo was dumbfounded as he had just managed to connect with his pre-game teammate, yet someone managed to eliminate three people in one go?

It’s the same No. 4 who previously eliminated one person.

If the first time might have been due to luck, this time eliminating three consecutively clearly wasn’t just luck.

This notification of eliminating three at once exposed quite a bit.

Did this No. 4 find a group of teammates, or did he handle the three alone? Was eliminating three solo due to excellent networking finding helpers, or was it raw strength allowing one to beat three?

Moreover, how could he locate so many other contestants on the first day?

Kim Keen-Woo felt uneasy, his mind swarmed with questions, but he realized one point.

Bad news, there’s a super fierce guy among the contestants this season!

Jin Huiyan was also stunned, "Why is Brother Wu Mu eliminating others so quickly!?"

Although she always had great confidence in Wu Mu, feeling the show rules greatly facilitated Wu Mu’s performance.

But this is too fast!

It’s only the first day, and four have been eliminated?

At this rate, before everyone even competes, he’ll manage to eliminate everyone on his own?

What on earth did Wu Mu do?

How can he be so fast?

And knowing No. 4 is likely Wu Mu, whose character prefers not to rely on others, she suspects these eliminations were all done by Wu Mu alone.

Jin Huiyan can’t understand how in a show that doesn’t reveal identities and hides everyone in a city, just finding someone else’s identity is impressive enough, why can he eliminate so many at once?

While she speculated in her heart, she also felt anxious, "Bad news, with Brother Wu Mu eliminating others so quickly, I won’t be of any use!"

Before the show, she also had a "teammate" agreement with Wu Mu, hoping to latch onto Wu Mu for screen time.

Now she hasn’t even met him, while Wu Mu is rapidly eliminating people, isn’t she of no use?

"I need to find Brother Wu Mu quickly!"

She clenched her fist toward the camera.

...

Not only were the contestants dumbfounded, but the production team was also at a loss.

It’s all messed up, it’s all messed up, things are turning into complete chaos!

Before the show, they envisioned filming contestants carefully thinking, settling down within the unfamiliar steel forest of Tokyo, capturing footage of each step in the survival process, moving on to contestants leveraging acquired advantages in later days, gradually interacting, testing, forming alliances or rivals, and eliminating others.

According to their original plan, it was estimated that eliminations wouldn’t start until the fourth or fifth day.

But it’s only the first day, and four are already gone!

Plus, with two tagged along for the ride and Wu Mu himself, this nearly covers one-third of the contestants.

Too fast elimination of other contestants is still minor compared to Wu Mu killing the competition entirely!

Having the local mafia’s assistance in hunting contestants already offered an advantage; after today’s heroic rescue, that advantage became overwhelmingly significant!

The Nishikou Group, a big mafia unit in Japan, is now directly on Wu Mu’s side, helping him tackle other contestants!

Perhaps the Nishikou Group wouldn’t catch contestants themselves, but helping Wu Mu locate them, then restraining or controlling these contestants is entirely feasible.

How could the others compete against Wu Mu supported by the local mafia!

And even beyond just one mafia.

After rescuing Takahashi Mi, they contacted Takahashi Tetsu again, who was deeply grateful upon knowing Wu Mu saved his sister.

The Nishikou Group might merely offer logistical support, but Takahashi Tetsu genuinely instructed his members to help Wu Mu catch people.

And this won’t take long; Takahashi Tetsu will have a meeting with Nishikou Group tonight for further cooperation. Once he rebuilds his manpower, although his primary focus will immerse in battling Shenchuan Association, assigning 20 or 30 people to assist Wu Mu won’t affect them at all considering their official membership numbered several thousand...

Faced with Wu Mu backed by two major Japanese mafia groups... how do other contestants compete?

It’s not that Cui Xiangzhong takes lightly the other contestants, but truly, there’s no hope left for them.

Even the director Cui Xiangzhong, who favored the fighting tournament champion among them, has seen him go far away.

The original plan was to film the process wherein contestants eliminated each other competitively, full of suspense over who the champion would be.

Yet, the first day hasn’t ended, and who the champion will be is almost a foregone conclusion.

The show content needs a shift from Cui Xiangzhong’s desire of capturing contestants’ competitive eliminations to becoming... a Great Demon King’s catch-the-run game?

ps: Writing too much about mafias seems a bit fragmented, not fitting the celebrity theme? I’ll speed it up.
