Chapter 120: The consequences of crossing Wang Yun |
“666! I’m on it, I’m on it, seriously? What’s up, Big Brother? Giving away money on the live stream?”
“Haha, talk about a face-slapping moment! Isn’t it too intense? The current chairman of Nancheng Bank must be heartbroken!”
“It’s not just about heartbreak anymore. These past few days, Nancheng Bank has been boasting about its security. They claimed even Big Brother couldn’t breach it. And now, it’s been cracked wide open!”
“Is the chairman of Nancheng Bank totally baffled now? This face-slapping is just too thrilling!”
“Big Brother’s actions are unbelievable! How did he manage to extract money from Nancheng Bank? It’s terrifying!”
“Wow, why aren’t I a citizen of Nancheng. I just missed out on a giveaway of 10 million just like that. It’s insane!”
Meanwhile, in the livestream, the audience was abuzz with shock and excitement upon witnessing this spectacle, this crazy magic trick. They regretted not being Nancheng citizens. If they were, they might have made a fortune today.
At the same time, there was a sense of gloating. Nancheng Bank had been aggressively marketing online, claiming they were impervious even to Big Brother’s attempts.
And the outcome?
“Chairman, Chairman, we had Xiao Li and the team check the safe. They’re reporting that the money is all there, no issues,” one of the bank staff reported.
However, the general manager, standing next to the Nancheng Bank chairman with a face covered in cold sweat, was on the phone, relaying a different story.
“No, no, Chairman, Xiao Li reports something troubling. The money in our safe… it’s been hollowed out in the middle. The outer layer is untouched, but the inside is practically empty. We’ve lost a significant amount.”
Upon hearing this, the chairman’s face drained of color. He staggered, nearly collapsing to the floor in disbelief.
Their Nancheng Bank’s security was reputed to be impenetrable, how could it have been breached? How did Wang Yun manage to take their money? What exactly did he do?
Despair set in.
“It’s over, it’s all over,” he thought.
Just then, a call came in from the production team, attempting to offer some comfort.
“Ahem, Chairman of Nancheng Bank, please, try to stay calm. You can still mitigate this situation. It’s not completely hopeless yet. Also, our production team will assist you with the losses. There’s still a chance to rectify this situation. Even in the worst case, we’ll only be set back to where we were before.”
Receiving this call, the chairman felt a surge of frustration, nearly at his breaking point.
He knew immediate action was necessary. If he could salvage the situation, they might return to their former standing. But if he failed, the consequences would be disastrous.
At that moment, a voice from the front announced, “The magic show continues. Are you ready? Next up, we’re doubling the money!”
Loud cheers erupted from the crowd.
“Big Brother is unbeatable, absolutely unbeatable!”
“Big Brother is awesome! I’d even have a baby for you, Big Brother!”
Excitement and euphoria resonated from the audience. Upon hearing this, the chairman of Nancheng Bank trembled violently.
“How much… how much did he take?” the chairman stammered into the phone, his voice tinged with desperation.
“One hundred million,” came the reply from the program team.
“I… How did he manage that?” the chairman gasped, his face turning ashen.
The surrounding cheers only heightened his anxiety, feeling as if his blood pressure was skyrocketing. A hundred million. The loss was far beyond his estimates.
But he had made a public statement and broadcasted it online. If he retracted his word now, what would become of Nancheng Bank’s credibility? A bank without trust is a disaster. It’s like losing the grain in an attempt to snatch a chicken.
The chairman of Nancheng Bank took several deep breaths, struggling to compose himself. He forced a smile, picked up the microphone, and announced loudly, “Please, no pushing, no shoving, and be careful not to injure others. Yes, Wang Yun has taken 100 million from our bank, and we acknowledge that. We at Nancheng Bank pride ourselves on our reputation. Today, any money found during this event will belong to the public. And let me add, you might not be aware of how formidable Big Brother Wang Yun is. Even the world’s top banks are no match for him. I admit I underestimated his strength. He is truly invincible, a legend forever.”
Now, there was no choice but to speak up. Not bowing wasn’t an option either. It was necessary not only to bow but also to sing Wang Yun’s praises.
If they mishandled the situation today, all their previous boasts would blow up in their faces. The market value of Nancheng Bank was on the brink of collapse. Bowing was crucial at this moment. His voice echoed out from the rooftop speakers.
Around him, some onlookers wore smirks, amused by the chairman’s predicament. The chairman of Nancheng Bank had clearly been schooled by Big Brother. It was quite a spectacle to see him bow in front of tens of thousands.
***
“Is that the chairman of Nancheng Bank actually on site? Was Big Brother’s goal to embarrass him and make him bow?”
“Hahaha, incredible! I just saw Big Brother slip a microphone into someone’s pocket. Turns out he wanted him to speak up and bow his head and admit his mistake!”
“I’m dying of laughter here. At first, they tried to play Big Brother, then rode on his popularity to boost their market value. And now? No longer so arrogant, are they?”
“How can they admit defeat in front of tens of thousands? Haha!”
“Big Brother’s move is absolutely brilliant, even giving the chairman of Nancheng Bank a microphone to speak, hahaha!”
The viewers in the livestream burst into laughter upon seeing the chairman of Nancheng Bank. Perhaps, this was the inevitable fate of anyone who dared to offend their Big Brother. Such a drastic turn of events, from triumph to disaster.
“This is truly brilliant, using such a method to make Nancheng Bank admit its mistake,” remarked the members of China’s program inspection team.
Wu Mingyu and others were visibly stunned by the scene, their faces reflecting their astonishment.
“Indeed, only he could come up with such an idea, to give a microphone to the other party,” said Wang Yue, shaking her head as she observed the monitors, “Wang Yun is right there at the scene. I wonder if Master Jue Ming and his team will be able to find him in the dark.”
“Master Jue Ming and his team don’t rely on facial recognition to find Wang Yun, but rather on his body and movements. The darkness shouldn’t pose much of an obstacle,” Ying Yuezi commented thoughtfully.
Just then, Kolyev’s voice, filled with awe, came through their communicators, “I still can’t fathom how Wang Yun managed to break into Nancheng Bank’s headquarters and make off with the money. Such a method is truly defying the heavens!”
“Indeed, it’s impressive. Although Nancheng Bank is a smaller institution, its security system rivals that of the larger banks. Also, let’s have the program officers on-site to maintain order and prevent any unforeseen incidents.”
The captains remarked, visibly astounded, as they issued additional instructions.
The situation was extraordinary.
Wang Yun had lavishly distributed 100 million today. Considering there were around 20,000 people present, each person could potentially find 5,000 yuan. The scene was one of absolute frenzy.
The program inspectors had their work cut out for them in controlling the crowd. They understood that creating this chaos was part of Wang Yun’s strategy, a way to engage all the inspectors.
At this point, they were filled with nothing but astonishment. However, they noticed Wang Yun had overlooked certain aspects. Their eyes narrowed, watching the monitors focused on Master Jue Ming and his team. This time, each of the three major program inspection teams had experts capable of resolving complex situations.

Meanwhile, a short distance from Nansu Plaza, Wang Yun couldn’t help but smile slightly upon hearing the chairman of Nancheng Bank. Adjusting his hat, he turned and began to make his way out, ready to proceed with his next plan.
The chapter involving Nancheng Bank was now closed.
“Hmm?”
But as he moved toward the exit, he suddenly sensed something.
Was someone watching him? His gaze sharpened momentarily, but he didn’t look around. Instead, he continued weaving through the crowd, blending in seamlessly.
Yet, he remained acutely aware of a persistent gaze following him, causing him to slightly furrow his brow. Even with his disguise, coupled with his current outfit, a hat, and a mask, all meticulously applied, he found it hard to believe that he could be recognized amidst the sea of thousands.
“Someone is definitely tracking me. But how did they detect me?” Wang Yun wondered, quickening his pace while the sense of being watched continued, knitting his brows in confusion and concern.
After a few seconds of hesitation, he spun around abruptly.
There, he saw a muscular young man, oddly dressed, fixated not on his face, but on his hands and legs.
As their eyes met, Wang Yun’s gaze sharpened, swiftly taking in every detail of the man. He noted the man’s robust build, the intensity in his eyes, the boxing gloves on his hands, the broad palms, the upright stance, and the powerful legs. Each detail etched itself into Wang Yun’s mind.
“He’s a monster,” Wang Yun realized, a chill running down his spine. “He hasn’t recognized me by my face, but by my movements, my hands… what else?”
As he recalled how the young man scrutinized him, Wang Yun’s mind raced, trying to piece together the puzzle.
People who engage in fitness exhibit distinct physical characteristics compared to those who don’t, just as soldiers stand out from civilians. A strong individual naturally carries the aura of strength.
Realizing this, Wang Yun’s eyes sparkled with a trace of admiration. He hadn’t anticipated being identified in such a manner. It was impressive.
Upon noticing Wang Yun’s attention, the muscular young man realized he had been spotted and had found his target. He quickly pulled out a communicator and spoke.
Wang Yun, with his exceptional hearing, tuned in as the young man spoke.
“That’s not Chinese or Japanese, it sounds like Thai. Could he be an inspector from Thailand?” he speculated silently.
Without hesitation, Wang Yun swiftly made his way towards the exit. Danger seemed to lurk all around, possibly an ambush in waiting.
“Quick, Wang Yun is trying to escape! He’s heading out of the crowd, intercept him,” the young man no longer held back, his gaze fixed on Wang Yun as he shouted, chasing after him. He also donned a hood, a necessary precaution.
In the densely packed crowd, program officers were prohibited from using firearms. But as a fugitive,’ Wang Yun faced no such restrictions. Thus, the young man’s hood was crucial for his safety.
Wang Yun moved swiftly, slipping through the crowd like a slippery eel. Just as he neared the outermost edge of the crowd, a figure suddenly charged toward him.
The figure charging at Wang Yun had gloves equipped with sharp barbs, his eyes gleaming with a fierce intensity reminiscent of a tiger on the prowl. He was clad in a hood and specialized gear covering his entire body.
As Wang Yun’s gaze sharpened at the sudden approach of this adversary, a warning came through from the production team, “Brother, be advised. The opponent’s clothing and hood are crafted from top-tier bulletproof materials, impervious to standard bullets. Coupled with his robust physical condition, even a close-range bullet hit won’t significantly harm him. Only a sniper rifle could potentially take him down. The barbs on his gloves are lethal, capable of causing severe injury and bleeding upon impact. However, keep in mind that these barbs are now manufactured for realism.”
Hearing this, Wang Yun’s expression shifted subtly.
In this crowded area, using firearms would be dangerous and chaotic. Close combat seemed inevitable, pitted against an opponent with such formidable gear.
Moreover, they had somehow seen through his disguise.
Clearly, they had come fully prepared.
