Chereads / A Broadcasted Choice System / Chapter 3 - Speed Run

Chapter 3 - Speed Run

The silence was unbearable to watch. A man without emotions and an underqualified bodyguard having a staring contest was eye-catching. Even without seeing Sean question this scene, the world also became puzzled, and anyone nearby could tell there was a strong tension between the two.

"Are you not going to answer? Were you lying? What? Are you afraid to answer?" The constant barrage of questions was enough to fluster anyone.

"You need to get leave! This place is off-limits, and that's all you need to know." Afraid that he might slip up, he quickly used his intimidating stature.

All Sean could do was wonder how he could get in. His system wanted him to do so, and while Sean didn't have to listen, this system might give him the experience he was searching for.

The bodyguard's eyes harden as he reads Sean's thoughts. However, knowing this place will be under fire has already made them fail at their jobs. Even if Sean did leave, the people watching this would be curious, and the authorities would step in if something went wrong.

Without care, while the bodyguards were thinking about salvaging this situation, too distracted to concern themselves with Sean's antics, the streamer sneaked into the building like a ninja.

After entering the building, he was in a dark room. This dark room wasn't suspicious. It looked like a lobby where guests or customers would stay for business.

While he would like to observe, he knew his time was limited. Sean didn't stand there but went toward the receptionist's desk, feeling something was there. This was the first time he had an instinct telling him what to do. It was like the system itself provided him with direction.

When he arrived at the receptionist's desk, his instincts flared up, telling him to look under the table. A red button was under it, and Sean couldn't help but want to click it.

"Oh? There's a button? When you see an unknown button, you should always click on it, regardless of the consequence." Sean nodded, feeling as if he had said something wise.

The floor near the receptionist's desk had been moved open by clicking the red button. The loud sound would attract anyone, and the guards who were daydreaming ran over and tried their best to detain Sean. Their faces paled greatly, knowing they had messed up even more.

The chat watching this was curious about what could be inside this secret entrance, and most of them had guessed the most outrageous outcome of this visit.

"Stop right there!" The leading guard spoke while getting closer to Sean.

Ignoring the guards, Sean went in without looking back and entered the hidden floor of this "closed-off" building in a highly populated area.

Surprisingly, when Sean entered this place, it was more normal than he thought. While the path to the bottom floor was narrow, the room he entered seemed similar to a storage room.

With crates being the only source of scenery, Sean kicked one of the boxes only to see an unidentifiable item.

"What are these?" Covered in a plastic bag, a white and green substance was found. He suspected these were drugs, but unless someone could confirm it, all he could do was make a wild guess.

"STOP!!!" It didn't take long before the guards entered and did their best to contain Sean.

"These are drugs, right? If I remember, this was supposed to be a matchmaking consultant. Who would have thought a large pile of drugs would be located here? If that were the case, I bet there are some fraudulent marriages." Guessing how this company should work, the guard's face turned black.

Caught live on camera. This was what the guards were warned about. Messing up like this would, without a doubt, cause them deep trouble, and their employers would definitely punish them for such a blunder.

Finding what he needed, there may be more illegal scoops, but Sean knew that he couldn't push his luck.

"Are you not going to move out of the way?" Sean walked up to the guards blocking the path. The audacity of this man was on a different level. Not only did he barge into this place, but asking to leave was something no normal person would do.

This had enraged all the guards, as Sean obviously hadn't taken them seriously. The only reason they haven't taken physical action is his ability to be monitored. While reputation didn't mean much to them, it didn't mean they would make an enemy out of the world.

"You're going to be detained for breaking in." Calming down, the guard made the best judgment he could think of.

"Detain me? You could, but you would be arrested for it. Did you know that this place already has traffic on these drugs? I think it is suspicious. Maybe, just maybe, you can redeem yourself and prove your innocence if you just let me leave and report the owner of this place that they're a criminal." Sean didn't have solid proof that these people were onto this.

However, he made a plan. The only way he could leave unscathed was to convince them to quit. Sean was convinced that these people weren't so innocent. With so many viewers on his chat, the bodyguards couldn't escape unless they left now.

Sean was sure that the authorities would come. He wasn't a saint and didn't care about stalling these people. Whether they rot in jail or not didn't affect him in any way.

Knowing what Sean was thinking, all they could do was give up and leave. There was no true loyalty in front of a jail. Why would they want to rot in a cell when freedom is a possible choice?

Seeing how Sean was left alone, the chat went wild at this quick development. It hadn't even been two minutes since Sean had entered this secret room.

Doing a speed run to find this massive crime was something almost unheard of. However, just as Sean was about to leave, the instinct he had felt earlier returned.
