Chapter 743: Chapter 740 The Ga Begins
Every mber of the Hunter Team is an elite within their own industry, and it goes without saying that they act with exceptional execution. Upon receiving the information, they all headed for the building, one after another pushing open the grand doors, and within half an hour, all had arrived.
The photographers, who held their caras, didn’t miss a single person, capturing it all. Aside from Commissioner Robert and Intelligence Director Teresa, they particularly introduced several of the leading mbers.
Senior Analyst, Ben Owen.
A forr intelligence officer from Central Country, internationally recognized as a surveillance expert.
His past professional missions mainly involved gathering intelligence for high-profile anti-terrorism operations, eventually leading secret intelligence operation teams around Central Country.
It’s worth ntioning that Owen was also the deputy director for the Central Country version of “Stealth Track.”
Action Director, Lenny Debol.
He spent over 30 years tracking down violent criminals, terrorists, and drug traffickers.
As the forr commander of the Ugly Country Marshals’ New York and New Jersey regional fugitive task force, he managed hundreds of criminal investigators from federal, state, and local agencies.
Action Guide One, Ryan Lee Phi Philips.
An experienced sergeant and commander, during his tenure he supervised and directed a SWAT team composed of 20 individuals, including tactical personnel, dics, snipers, and K-9 trainers.
Action Guide Two, Andrew Stumpf.
He served in the Navy SEALs for over 17 years, completing multiple combat missions and hundreds of operational actions on several battlefields.
His honors include 5 Bronze Star dals and 4 Silver Star dals, a Purple Heart, a Joint Service Comndation dal, a Navy and Marine Corps Comndation dal, a Valor dal, an Army Comndation dal, 2 Combat Action Ribbons, and a dal of rit from the Ugly Country General Command.
After the photographer recorded all the key mbers, he still couldn’t help but be amazed.
There was no helping it, Bi Fang had the skill and the guts, but Yao Jun was honestly quite nervous. Being watched made him feel like he had already been exposed, ready to be hunted down at any mont.
Just as Yao Jun was sinking into his anxiety, Bi Fang gestured to the caraman to co over.
The caraman, who had just arrived at the hotel ten minutes before, was startled by Bi Fang’s gesture, looked around, and after confirming he was being called, ambled over.
The caraman ca over with a wry smile, “So, I’ve been found out, huh?”
Bi Fang smiled, “It’s a bit difficult for an ordinary person to follow a professional. So, how about it, have you eaten yet? Would you like so?”
The caraman didn’t refuse as he had indeed skipped lunch; carrying equipnt all the way had made him very hungry. He grabbed a piece of bread and stuffed it into his mouth, mumbling, “The manhunt hasn’t started yet, you guys better not run off. Oh, and here’s a card for you with five hundred Ugly Money in it. It’s all you’ll get for this month, but you can only withdraw a hundred at a ti.”
A card was presented before him, and Bi Fang glanced at it a few tis before stuffing it into his bag.
After lunch was done, the caraman’s phone in his pocket began to vibrate.
The impressive track records of just these six commanding officers were enough to give any normal fugitive a headache.
What kind of criminal would warrant such an extravagant lineup for their capture?
The Joker of Gotham?
In the end, a total of thirty-five Hunters arrived, all brimming with determination.
A normal Hunter Team should consist of thirty people; this ti they had intended to have thirty-two, with two being specifically for fieldwork, but now the number of field operatives had increased by three, all specially assigned to deal with soone.
As for who that soone was, it went without saying.
Before the hunt officially began, the fugitives would start the cat-and-mouse ga an hour in advance. An hour later, the Hunters could begin the pursuit, knowing only the fugitive’s na, photo, and last known residence.
This ant that Robert and others were unaware of who exactly comprised the fugitive team.
But the first season of other versions of “Stealth Track” included thirty mbers, and shoehorning in an additional five field operators had made everyone realize that the situation was anything but simple.
Show Director Fisk, holding eighteen profiles of individuals, stood quietly in the corner, grinning as he watched Robert gather everyone together. There was still an hour before they would officially get the information of each fugitive, and definitely, they couldn’t just sit around; he believed they should use this hour to get to know each other and integrate.
The cara circled around everyone, not missing any exciting shots.
Robert, “Our team is outstanding. Each person has special talents, experience, and resources…”
…
Inside the hotel, Bi Fang and Yao Jun found a spot to enjoy the hotel’s lunch for the day.
After sitting down with his plate, Yao Jun looked around restlessly, perfectly illustrating what it ant to have a guilty conscience.
A good week had passed since they agreed to participate in “Stealth Track,” and the production team had not inford them when the escape would begin. Until the recording started, they had to live as normal people, unable to prepare in advance or hide in so remote mountain corner.
Otherwise, with Bi Fang’s survival skills, he could easily take Yao Jun and hide out in the Rocky Mountains in advance. It wouldn’t just be a month’s escape; they could probably manage a year, and the Hunter Team would be completely at a loss.
This led to Yao Jun feeling excited and anxious every day, always on edge and fearing that he would beco a “fugitive” the next mont.
Bi Fang swallowed a piece of bread and wiped his hands on a wet wipe, “I think you’re really cut out for this show, you look just like a fugitive right now, a perfect imrsion.”
Yao Jun didn’t mind Bi Fang’s teasing; he knew how thrilled he was, “I’ve already thought about how to spend the two hundred and fifty thousand Ugly Money.”
“You still care about that money?”
“Who doesn’t like free money?”
Confidence was brimming in Yao Jun’s words, clearly certain of victory, but this confidence was not from himself, but from Bi Fang beside him.
“Why haven’t they started yet? I’ve been waiting for days.”
“It’ll start soon.”
“How do you know?”
“Because the caran are already in place,” Bi Fang pointed behind Yao Jun.
“Where?”
Yao Jun turned to look and quickly spotted soone carrying a large bag and quietly watching them.
If Bi Fang hadn’t ntioned it, Yao Jun might not have been suspicious, just assuming the person was carrying luggage, but after the reminder, he imdiately realized that the bag probably contained a cara!
Each fugitive is followed by a dedicated caraman.
The production teams working with the hunters and those with the fugitives are separate, to prevent the transfer of information and to provide a more realistic environnt.
“There are nine groups in total; the caran probably haven’t all arrived, so he’s likely waiting for the command to start moving. Once everyone is in place, they will co and notify us to start escaping,” Bi Fang guessed.
“So what do we do? Do we start running now?”
“No need, we haven’t even finished eating. Why the rush? Besides, did you read the rules? For the first hour after we start escaping, the Hunter Team gets our location from an hour ago, so there’s no use in running ahead.”
“Then do we need to shake them off? Like you did at Dolphin Bay?”
“Cough cough, shake off the caraman? Are you serious?” Bi Fang was surprised by Yao Jun’s line of thought—without the caraman, why would they even participate in the show?
Yao Jun also realized he had asked a rather foolish question and was very embarrassed.
Bi Fang and the caraman exchanged a glance.
The caraman took out his phone, glanced at the caller information, and smiled, “Looks like the ga has started.”
