Chereads / Global Manhunt Show [Translation] / Chapter 3 - The Hidden Prison Escape Expert - East Sea Prison

Chapter 3 - The Hidden Prison Escape Expert - East Sea Prison

The entire scene was instantly abuzz!

What did the host just say?

Among the 100 participants, there's an international prison escape expert??

The Global Manhunt program's livestream was already shaking!

As the most popular and trending entertainment show at the moment, the Global Manhunt production team was undoubtedly the number one!

At this moment, even though the broadcast had just started, millions of people had already flooded into the livestream room!

[No way! Is this for real? An escape expert is participating?]

[An escape expert? Is that even a profession?]

[Nonsense, of course it is! These people generally handle security issues in various prisons and facilities. Isn't that what an escape expert is?]

[Wow! Tonight is going to be exciting! I thought it was going to be another boring evening!]

[Hahaha, I thought the same. In the previous two seasons, we just watched these 'criminals' get released.]

[I'm looking forward to tonight!]

Inside the livestream room, discussions were in full swing.

And at the scene, Su Yu was momentarily stunned.

To be honest, he never expected the production team to be this intense.

For the sake of ratings, they had actually brought in a prison escape expert?

Perhaps, they were doing this to generate interest.

And it wasn't just Su Yu who felt this way.

At this moment, on the stage.

The five pursuit officials all had surprised expressions.

"There's actually a prison escape expert among them. Tonight is going to be interesting."

A deep voice sounded, coming from Wang Tao, the retired special forces soldier.

The other four officials exchanged glances and nodded in agreement.

"Indeed, tonight is going to be a challenge."

Zhang Mingshan nodded earnestly.

As someone who had participated in three seasons consecutively, he was certainly experienced.

His words were met with approval from the other pursuit officials.

Even Bing Bing, the host, nodded.

"Yes, ladies and gentlemen, from what we can see now, tonight's Prison Break Night is going to be very exciting."

"The next stage is to escort all the fugitives to the East Sea Prison." Bing Bing smiled as she spoke.

By now, she had officially taken over the role of the host.

With her words, including Su Yu, over a hundred fugitives were led one by one into the "prisoner transport" vehicles.

Naturally, Su Yu also got into one of the black vans.

He was accompanied by five other "fugitives."

After giving them a quick glance, Su Yu didn't notice anything unusual.

It seemed that the prison escape expert wasn't among them.

That was good too; tonight would be a competition to see who could escape first.

A confident smile appeared on Su Yu's face.

The van started moving and headed toward the East Sea Prison.

The atmosphere inside the vehicle was slightly tense.

The other five people had nervous expressions, but Su Yu remained calm. He even had a smile on his face.

Inside the van, there was not only the six of them but also a camera.

This camera was connected to the online livestream room.

At this moment, many people had already started entering various livestream rooms.

In Su Yu's livestream room, discussions were already taking place.

[Hahaha, it looks like these 'fugitives' are really nervous, they're even sweating.]

[No kidding, I looked at the other vans too, they're all so quiet.]

[Indeed, but that young man in the corner wearing white clothes looks so handsome!]

[Hey, sis, I have to admit, that young man is really handsome, and he looks so neat.]

[True, the most interesting part is that he seems completely relaxed even though he looks nervous... wait a second... he's smiling!]

In the livestream room, Su Yu was the one laughing.

Could he not?

With the system on his side, he was about to embark on an invincible journey!

However, the viewers in the livestream room didn't think the same way.

[What the heck! All the others have furrowed brows and tense expressions, but this young man is actually smiling. Could he be the prison escape expert?]

[I feel the same way. But isn't he too young for that?]

[I've got to say... you fans of good looks upstairs, have you ever seen such a young expert? Maybe he's just happy that he can get 500,000 for free.]

[Uh... that actually makes some sense. If he's not expecting to escape, he can still get 500,000 for free.]

[Good point, we're overthinking it.]

The livestream room gradually quieted down again.

Not long after, the vehicle came to a stop.

The doors opened.

"Alright, everyone, get out. We've arrived at East Sea Prison."

Upon hearing this, Su Yu got out of the van.

Before his eyes was a massive black structure, built against the mountains!

The prison's exterior had been painted black, and under the setting sun, it looked like a beast sleeping on the land!

Utterly formidable!

Once everyone was properly organized, the fugitives were led into the prison.

"Alright, we can see that all the fugitives have been escorted into East Sea Prison."

"Let me give you a brief introduction."

"East Sea Prison is a heavy-duty facility established by the East Sea City, completed in the late 20th century. It specializes in detaining various criminals."

"It uses symmetrical design, with two sets of walls and four zones - A, B, C, D."

"The area where the fugitives will be held is Zone C."

Bing Bing stood in front of the camera, wearing a familiar and cute smile.

Beside her were the fugitives lined up and entering the prison.

Su Yu happened to walk past Bing Bing.

Hearing her words, he raised an eyebrow.

Two sets of walls?

It seemed like the difficulty level wasn't small.

After a brief moment of contemplation, Su Yu quickly moved forward.

In the hands of a pursuing official acting as a prison guard, he received a set of prison clothes.

Then, he entered through the main gate.

As he entered, Su Yu's peripheral vision caught a glimpse of the gate.

Made of steel, about 5 cm thick, it used a combination of fingerprint locks, digital locks, and traditional key locks, guarded by two people.

Instantly, a series of information floated into his mind.

Continuing forward, he soon arrived at the front.

Facing the pursuing official acting as the jailer, he stepped forward and was finally called after a moment's pause.

"Su Yu."

He moved forward and stood before the pursuing official.

The official glanced at him, compared him to the photo, nodded, and attached an ID badge to Su Yu's chest.

"Follow me."

"Alright."

Su Yu followed the official and stopped in front of a cell at the far end of Zone C.

"Go in."

"Sure."

Su Yu entered the cell.

With a clatter, the pursuing official, now playing the role of a prison guard, locked the cell.

"Enjoy being pursued tomorrow night."

The guard smiled, revealing a set of white teeth.

Su Yu smiled in return.

"What if I escape tonight?"

"Hahaha, young man, I guarded the border when I was in the military. Do you think you stand a chance?"

The guard came closer to Su Yu, looking at him with a contemptuous expression.

Unfazed, Su Yu leaned in, locking eyes.

"Then it will come down to each of our abilities."

"Sure."

The prison guard sneered and walked away, whistling.

Once all the guards had left, the entire Zone C fell into silence.

Su Yu sat down on the bed, and in the palm of his hand appeared two black keys.
