Everyone's gaze shifted to the pursuing official!
Under the hood of his raincoat, Su Yu's eyelids twitched.
As expected of a psychology professor, she noticed such a small detail?
Troublesome...
Su Yu took a slight breath before speaking.
"Professor Zhao, the reason I said it might be the work of an escapee is that besides an escapee, who else would randomly shut down the surveillance?"
Su Yu's voice was calm and composed.
The others once again turned to look at Zhao Wanqing.
Zhao Wanqing's expression was uncertain.
"No, you're lying. Actually, your words were meant to steer our thoughts in another direction. Can you take off your hat?"
Zhao Wanqing spoke up.
Su Yu paused for a moment upon hearing this.
This brief pause made everyone narrow their eyes.
But then, Su Yu removed his hat.
"Professor Zhao, I didn't lie. I merely spoke my thoughts."
Su Yu looked straight at Zhao Wanqing, his gaze composed.
The others, once again, turned their attention to Zhao Wanqing.
Zhao Wanqing's expression was hesitant.
His reaction didn't seem like he was pretending, right?
However, they still felt something was off.
"Why do I feel like you're familiar?"
Zhao Wanqing spoke up again.
Su Yu, however, simply smiled faintly.
"Professor Zhao, if you feel that way, you can compare it with the photo."
Su Yu spoke calmly, his expression suggesting he had no intention to argue.
Although he said that, he had already tensed his body, concealed under the raincoat.
The one closest to him was Bing Bing.
If this woman insisted on uncovering his identity...
For an "escapee," is it standard practice to take a "hostage"?
In fact, Su Yu's decision to disguise himself as a pursuing official was also a gamble.
He bet that the five pursuing officials couldn't possibly recognize all the escapees on the first day!
As Su Yu pondered, the atmosphere grew quite tense.
Facing so many gazes, Zhao Wanqing was also under considerable pressure.
If she made a wrong judgment, it could negatively impact her reputation.
In the end, she couldn't make up her mind.
"I'm sorry, I might have overthought things."
"It's alright, I understand your concerns."
Su Yu heard this and gave a faint smile.
Wang Tao had already stood up eagerly.
"Let's go find him now. If we're too late, that guy might have really escaped!"
"Yes, all the pursuing officials not on fixed duty can join you in the search."
"Alright!"
Wang Tao stood up immediately, striding out.
As he passed by Su Yu, he glanced at him.
"You, come with me."
"Sure."
Su Yu's expression remained calm as he followed Wang Tao.
As he walked out of the command center, he let out a faint sigh.
At this moment, the system's voice suddenly sounded crazily.
"Ding! Popularity increased by 50,000!"
"Ding! Popularity increased by 100,000!"
"Ding! Popularity increased by 200,000!"
"Ding..."
In the blink of an eye, Su Yu's popularity skyrocketed by 500,000.
And it was still rising.
What's going on?
Su Yu was puzzled.
"Host, your true identity was just revealed, attracting a lot of attention and increasing your popularity."
The system explained.
This explanation left Su Yu dumbfounded.
There's even this kind of feature?
What he didn't know was that the live broadcast room was going wild at this moment.
["I must be dreaming! I must be dreaming!"]
["666, my treasure! Su Yu, oh no, Su God, you're too amazing! Too darn amazing! Acting in front of pursuing officials, this is insane!"]
["Oh my god, the moment I saw him, my mind blanked out! What kind of thought process is this? Pretending to be a pursuing official to deceive the pursuing officials, and the key point is, they didn't recognize him?!"]
["Wow! Su God totally calculated that the pursuing officials wouldn't recognize the escapees on the first day and directly posed as one!"]
["Exactly, each pursuing official has 20 escapees under them, it's impossible for them to be familiar on the first day."]
["So damn awesome! Su God, forever our god!!"]
Inside the live broadcast room, countless people were left astounded.
Of course, Su Yu was completely unaware of all this.
At this moment, he was trailing behind Wang Tao, conducting a haphazard search of the entire prison.
He even returned to Zone C once more.
"Wow! Are you really trying to pry open the prison door?! Call the command center, call the command center, someone is trying to escape!"
Su Yu arrived in front of the cell that had previously seemed like the escape master's, and he spoke directly.
Sitting on the bed, a seemingly honest escapee was utterly dumbfounded.
How did he know?!
A few minutes later, this escapee was determined to have attempted to open the window and was sent to solitary confinement.
Inside the live broadcast room, laughter erupted.
["Damn, Su God is so skilled at this! An escapee transforming into a pursuing official and even catching an escapee? How cool!"]
["Awesome! Too awesome! Su God is my idol from now on!"]
["Ah, I love escapees with high IQs like Su God!"]
["Hahahaha, this cracked me up!"]
["Hey, brother upstairs, are you wearing a resurrection armor?"]
["Got a legendary sword, no need for resurrection armor."]
The entire live broadcast room was filled with laughter.
Who could have imagined that an escapee disguising as a pursuing official wouldn't be found out, and he'd even catch another escapee who tried to escape?
Please calculate the area of psychological shadow!
Power room...
Su Yu walked out and shook his head at a pursuing official nearby.
"No one inside."
"Oh, okay, let's go. Captain Wang wants us to regroup."
"Alright."
Su Yu followed the pursuing official and headed downstairs toward the command center.
His gaze narrowed slightly.
Now, this was the crucial point.
After searching inside the walls, they were bound to search outside.
Almost as Su Yu anticipated, downstairs in the command center, Wang Tao's expression was extremely grim.
Nothing!
They hadn't found a single trace throughout the entire prison!
He actually escaped!
The other four pursuing officials also stood downstairs, their expressions changing.
No one had expected that they wouldn't find him at all!
What to do?
The five pursuing officials exchanged glances, and finally, Zhang Mingshan, the most composed among them, spoke.
"In my opinion, let's leave some people here on guard, and the rest of us go out?"
"Sounds good! I must find that guy!"
Wang Tao was the first to nod.
He had a fiery temper to begin with.
Now, the first escapee appeared on his pursuing list.
If he didn't capture him, he would lose all face!
The others heard this and nodded in agreement.
"OK, let's leave 20 people on guard here, and take the other 80 out."
Soon, the 80 pursuing officials gathered and were divided into teams.
On this rainy night, they donned raincoats and headed outside.
Inside the live broadcast room, countless people watched the screen.
Su Yu walked at the back, and at the moment he left, the entire live broadcast room erupted once again.
["Done! He really escaped!"]
["Like a dragon entering the sea, disappearing without a trace! If Su God really got out of the prison, could they still catch him?!"]
["Incredible! The night of the escape, he really escaped, and he succeeded!"]
["Within two hours, Su God managed to escape in just two hours! Incredible!"]
["Mom asked me why I was kneeling to watch the live broadcast, sob, sob, sob."]
The entire live broadcast room was in an uproar.
Meanwhile, outside, all the pursuing officials were searching the surrounding areas in pairs.
In one particular group, Su Yu suddenly stopped.
"Brother, I need your help with something."
"What's the matter?"
A pursuing official looked at Su Yu with confusion.
Su Yu smiled slightly and quickly spoke.
"Tell Professor Zhao for me. She was close to discovering me."
"Also, the person is hidden in the basement of the power room."
After saying this, Su Yu instantly turned and disappeared into the woods.
This pursuing official stood still for a long time. After a while, he finally reacted.
"Everyone gather! The person... has escaped!!"
The voice was heart-wrenching, full of despair!
