Thank you to my readers Wo Jin, Gloria, Shaozhu 55, and Wen Xiao for your donations, and to Gloria for your review. Thank you all for your comments. I usually update at noon, thank you. A friend has set up a group, 325834802, for those who like my work to join and chat.
================
The ringing of the phone woke Zhu Peijia from his deep sleep. The fatigue from the day had made him fall asleep early. Impatiently, he answered the call and immediately jumped out of bed. He quickly turned on the TV, and uncontrollable laughter burst out of his mouth.
After finally catching his breath, he hurriedly picked up the phone next to him—he wanted to inform all his friends about this show; good things must be shared!
================
"This person is definitely a madman! This act of running naked in the street is a disgrace to our Tang Empire!"
The speaker was a feminist, her dignified face twisted with anger: "This is not something a human being can do; it's a lunatic! His only place is in a mental institution, and he should be locked up for ten thousand years!"
"I disagree; I think this person did a great job."
Another TV guest smiled, clearly agreeing with the man.
================
In the Prime Minister's office, the Prime Minister stared in shock at Wu Yuan, who was running naked on TV, his face filled with shame and anger. His little granddaughter clapped her hands and laughed joyfully.
"Brother, let me see your little chicken..."
Two children chased each other around the dining table, completely ignoring the smoke coming from their grandfather's head.
The clever secretary approached, speaking in a low voice: "The TV station refuses to block it; they believe it's their news freedom."
"Tell the police chief of Yunzhou City to commit suicide!"
================
"Incompetent, the police's incompetence! A naked man can escape the police's repeated pursuits. Look at how chaotic Yunzhou has become; this is a disgrace to our entire Federation!"
The few guests invited by the TV station were in chaos, vying to express their opinions.
However, they were not the main characters; the real protagonist was still running naked on the 16th Street.
That lonely figure, no, the naked runner, and the countless pursuers, no, the chasers, had formed a beautiful landscape, crossing the 12th Street and spreading forward.
================
The high-level UN meeting was interrupted, and the TV in the meeting room was turned on. Everyone focused on the content on the screen, and the laughter turned the serious place into an entertainment room. The senior officials of the European Federation completely ignored the red-faced chief negotiator of the Tang Empire, cheering loudly for Wu Yuan's repeated escapes.
Five hundred years ago, the path to immortality was cut off, and supernatural powers no longer existed. The Roman Empire and the Han Empire collapsed, and their descendants built a new civilization from the ruins.
During the process of rising from the ruins, the quality of human beings determined the current status and condition of the newly established countries. The hardworking, brave, and resilient Tang Empire gathered more than 35% of the world's wealth and 40% of its resources, with its national output and total value far surpassing other countries.
With these advantages, the officials of the Tang Empire were always aggressive in every meeting, making other countries' representatives grind their teeth in anger but helpless.
Now, the representatives from Europe and Africa seized this opportunity and were not polite. They not only laughed and talked loudly but also made exaggerated gestures. The young diplomats of the Empire had already run out, and the so-called "cold-faced" foreign minister could not bear the ridicule; he could only lower his head and pretend to drink tea.
Although there was no liquid left in the cup.
This is an era of communication, an era of sharing.
As the news spread rapidly, more than a billion people worldwide were watching the live broadcast on TV, and more people were joining every moment. If the kidnapping of Yu Xianrong had made half the world worried, then Wu Yuan's naked run made everyone glued to their TV screens.
The police who rushed in had confirmed Yu Xianrong's safety, and with tears in her eyes, she smiled at everyone who was concerned.
"I'm fine; that person was just drunk."
This scene relieved everyone, but the wet saliva on her leg made many people speculate.
The focus of the news had shifted to the naked Wu Yuan—almost everyone defined Wu Yuan as a rapist whose crime was interrupted at the last moment.
While people were relieved for Yu Xianrong, more people rushed out of their homes. The traffic in Yunzhou City was completely paralyzed, and vehicles from every corner blocked every road. Yu Xianrong's crazy fans didn't care about traffic control; they just wanted to catch the bastard who kidnapped her.
On the 16th Street, Jin Hua Road, and Electronic Fourth Road, Wu Yuan ran through three streets under everyone's pursuit. The number of police behind him increased, their eyes red with anger. The traffic paralysis forced everyone to walk, and the police, like raging bulls, ran after the naked Wu Yuan. No one dared to shoot; the whole world was watching them.
The naked Wu Yuan definitely couldn't carry any weapons; if the police shot, they might as well buy a block of tofu and bash their heads against it.
They must catch this bastard, they must!
================
The night was beautiful, and the air carried the scent of distant flowers. A gentle breeze blew, and the heat of the day disappeared instantly. On this refreshing and pleasant night, Wu Yuan... was running naked in front of hundreds of millions of people.
Relying entirely on instinct and luck, Wu Yuan dodged one pursuit after another. He was still running because he still had a glimmer of hope—escaping would be best.
Wu Yuan had never experienced such a situation, running naked on the street. Countless searchlights from the sky converged on him, and the flashlights from nearby buildings flickered like stars. Wu Yuan's dazed mind was half-awake, and he just wanted to cry.
Barefoot, he jumped from the roof of a BMW to the roof of a Hyundai. He could see the surprise, curiosity, and even admiration in the drivers' faces. The cool breeze blew over his naked body, and his little brother even perked up a bit.
"Stop, bastard, stop!"
Two police officers flanked him and pounced almost simultaneously. Wu Yuan leaped and grabbed a hanging rope, swinging over ten meters away. The crowd cheered loudly, and the TV station broadcast this scene to every household.
The police behind him roared in anger, their only thought to catch this damn guy.
The searchlights from the helicopters illuminated the street like daylight, and the chase between the police and Wu Yuan made the people watching TV laugh. On the high-definition TV screen, Wu Yuan, like a nimble monkey, escaped from the clumsy police again and again. He moved up and down, left and right, sometimes leaping onto car roofs, sometimes stepping on the heads of the police. His naked body gave him a huge advantage; there was nothing for the police to grab—except for one thing.
What's American football? This scene is a hundred times more exciting! What's porn? This is a true return to nature!
In the waves of radio signals and orders, almost all the police in the city rushed in this direction. If the police cars couldn't get through, they ran; if the roads were blocked, they climbed over walls. All the police were grinding their teeth in anger; this night was a nightmare for them.
The enraged bulls all held black batons, their only thought to catch Wu Yuan and beat him to death. Wu Yuan's naked figure flashed on the large screens on the roadside, and the crowd laughed and whistled.
The police's steps quickened, their faces twisted in ferocity.
They must catch that bastard!
Seemingly sensing the danger, Wu Yuan rushed into a large supermarket on the side of the road. As the journalists regretfully moved their cameras, something even more exciting happened. Wu Yuan ran out of the store as if his butt was on fire, followed by a crowd of people with sticks.
The scene became even more chaotic, and the crowd and the police got entangled. At this moment, Wu Yuan actually managed to grab a motorcycle!
Starting the motorcycle that hadn't been turned off, Wu Yuan charged forward. His skillful driving opened a bloody path, and he temporarily escaped the police's pursuit!
At this moment, the police chief, who was watching the live broadcast on TV, collapsed. His body couldn't withstand the heart rate of 100 beats per minute. Blood spurted from his mouth, but the determined look in his eyes was clear to everyone—catch that bastard! Must!
This was the fifth high-ranking police officer to collapse on duty.
Four other high-ranking police officers had already been sent to the hospital.
