Chapter 138: The Pursuit Team Scatters and Flees!

~7 min read 1,282 words

Chen Zijin's analysis was indeed correct.

The core of the Ozaki Eight challenges is the homage to and defiance of gravity.

All eight challenge items are developed around this core.

The so-called natural elements are merely a medium to realize this core.

The previous challenges were like this.

The current Ice Solidification is even more so.

Once this principle is understood, looking at the Extreme Eight Items again immediately brings a sense of sudden enlightenment!

All previous confusion will vanish into thin air!

From this point, it can be seen that the Extreme Eight Items is by no means just a simple themed crime, but a great feat filled with various details and philosophical connotations.

Chu Chen possesses all the qualities that every perpetrator should have!

But his behavioral motives are vastly different from those of a true perpetrator!

He is not doing it for money.

Nor is he doing it to pursue the thrill of crime.

He just wants to complete an extraordinary Nirvana through this way of practicing what he preaches, to show the terrifying side of nature to the world in its raw form, and thereby awaken people's attention to Earth!

From a certain perspective, this behavior of his can no longer be simply defined as a crime.

It is art!

That's right!

It is art!

The art of a brave soul!

Right now, although the clue Chen Zijin discovered cannot bring substantive help to the pursuit work.

It is of great significance to the entire case.

For a long time, the various actions of the Expert Group have always been troubled by public opinion, and have even caused the Program Team to bear enormous pressure!

For criminals, they themselves possess the absolute advantage.

But when facing Chu Chen, this advantage has not played the role it should have at all!

The successive failures have not only left them severely battered, but have also pushed the entire capture team to the forefront of the storm!

To this day, they no longer pin their hopes on being able to catch Chu Chen.

They just want to make sure they don't lose too ugly!

At present, two-thirds of the entire competition schedule has already passed.

If they haven't even figured out the other party's criminal motive before the end of the first theme, they won't have the face to stay in the Expert Group any longer...

From this angle, Chen Zijin's discovery is absolutely of extraordinary significance to them.

It not only won a precious fig leaf for the entire team, but also allowed them to stand on the same starting line as Chu Chen again.

In this way, this can also be considered a huge improvement!

After listening to Chen Zijin's analysis, all four experts fell into deep thought, carefully ruminating on everything he had just said.

For a time, the large Command Room was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop; it was terrifyingly silent.

"I really dare not imagine that there could be someone in this world who could design such an ingenious crime..." After a long while, Zhu Guowei was the first to break the silence.

Hearing this, Liu Xuemin echoed: "Yes, we should really be glad that he is not a real criminal."

Watching Chu Chen, who was racing against that white dragon on the snow trail, Wang Ruomei kept her eyes fixed on him and changed the subject: "Do you think this sport was created by him specifically for this challenge?"

"I don't know." Zhu Guowei shook his head and replied: "But before him, I had never seen a sport similar to it."

"This guy is truly a genius..." After he finished speaking, Wang Ruomei sighed again.

At this moment, Chen Zijin suddenly took over the conversation:

"He is indeed a genius, and a crazy genius... Aristotle once said that all geniuses are crazy; this statement is truly fitting for him. To remain calm even when facing the danger of being swallowed by rolling snow at any moment—this alone is something not everyone can do. At least I don't have the guts..."

Putting down the assembled Rubik's cube, Lin Xu nodded: "Neither do I."

Just as they were talking, the rolling snow, its momentum undiminished, soon evolved into a magnificent white Waterfall, constantly compressing Chu Chen's sliding space, and it looked like it was about to swallow him completely!

Seeing this scene, the nerves of the five experts tightened instantly, and they watched Chu Chen's every move with great worry!

At the same time!

The first capture site!

As the avalanche continued to grow, all the pursuit personnel were dumbfounded!

The next second, before the two team leaders could react, some pursuit team members realized the severity of the situation and, while screaming, fled in all directions!

"It's an avalanche, it's an avalanche!"

"My God! Everyone run!"

"Run, run! If we don't run now, it'll be too late!"

After their shouting, the entire team immediately fell into chaos!

The swarming crowd scattered like birds and beasts in an instant!

Seeing this, Chen Xiong stood directly on the roof of the vehicle and shouted at the fleeing pursuit team members: "Everyone, don't run around! Evacuate in an orderly manner! Everyone, don't run around!"

Zhuang Yan: "Everyone, don't panic!"

The two team leaders tried hard to maintain order at the scene, but in order to save their lives, many team members were no longer listening to commands.

The consequence of not listening to commands is at most being terminated by the Program Team.

But if they don't run, it's questionable whether they will even be alive.

Under these circumstances, they threw all rules and regulations to the back of their minds!

"Team Leader Zhuang, what should we do?"

Seeing that the situation could no longer be controlled, Chen Xiong looked at Zhuang Yan and asked.

In the emergency, Zhuang Yan had no time to think.

Regardless of anything else, preserving Life was the priority.

As long as the green hills remain, there is no need to worry about firewood.

Thinking of this, she grabbed the edge of the roof box, climbed through the window into the Driving cabin, and while starting the car, said to Chen Xiong: "Get in the car first! It will be too late if we don't leave now!"

Hearing this, Chen Xiong nodded with some reluctance and immediately opened the car door to sit in the passenger seat!

"Hold on tight!"

After Chen Xiong got in, Zhuang Yan started the car directly in second gear, roared away from the scene, and sped off along a dirt road at the foot of the mountain!

At this moment, Zhou Yun and the others in the helicopter also witnessed this scene with their own eyes!

"Oh no..."

After muttering this, Zhou Yun decisively picked up the walkie-talkie and contacted Zhuang: "Team Leader Zhuang, what is the situation on your end right now?"

"We have encountered big trouble, the situation is completely out of control, the people have all scattered, and Captain Chen and I are on the road fleeing!"

"Boom—!"

Before the voice had even faded, the roaring sound of rolling snow grew closer and closer!

Being in the midst of it, the two could clearly feel a sense of the earth shaking and the mountains swaying!

"How is Chu Chen doing now?"

In the urgency, Zhuang Yan asked with some concern.

Hearing this, Zhou Yun picked up the binoculars and looked.

Right now, the entire snow-capped mountain had fallen into complete chaos!

Thousands of tons of snow were about to reach the foothills.

Because the situation was somewhat complex, Zhou Yun looked for quite a while but could not find Chu Chen's figure!
