Chapter 291 - Chapter 291 Chapter 291 Holy shit whats going on

Chapter 291: Chapter 291: Holy shit, what’s going on?! Chapter 291: Chapter 291: Holy shit, what’s going on?! Wang Hao and the girl were madly sprinting across the field as bombs exploded continuously around them! Some bombs were as close as three or four meters away, while others were seven or eight meters distant.

“Oh God, please protect us–” Wang Hao prayed desperately, “Just don’t let me step on one!”

While they sprinted, Director Wu noticed something odd about the footage he was reviewing–these two weren’t the hostages they’d arranged!

Director Wu was utterly bewildered, even cursing out loud, “What the fuck? Who are these two?! My bombs! That’s over two hundred thousand gone in just an instant!”

As if the misfortune couldn’t get any worse, the actors started firing guns, too!

“Da-da-da!” Wang Hao heard a burst of gunfire behind him, then saw dirt splattering around him!

“Get down!” Wang Hao dove, taking the girl down with him, yelling, “They’re shooting!”

“What on earth did you do?!” The girl was perplexed and anxious. “Did they really need to use a machine gun just to catch you?!”

How could I possibly know what’s happening?

Finally, when the site had quieted down a bit, Wang Hao didn’t wait another second. He got up and continued rushing forward. Best to get out of this minefield first!

“Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!”

Then came another series of explosions!

And it didn’t stop there. Just then, sparks from the explosions ignited a nearby fuel drum, causing a loud “bang” as fierce flames erupted.

The flames leapt several meters and spewed thick smoke! Director Wu really spared no expense for a grand explosion!

The fierce flames quickly spread to a nearby canopy and rows of trailers, threatening to engulf them too, along with several nearby oxygen tanks, piles of gunpowder, dry branches…

“Oh, for fuck’s sake!” Wang Hao was almost scared silly. Come on, big brother! Who planned this setup? Is the goal to blow up the whole city?!

He raced forward as explosions roared behind him.

Director Wu was wildly pulling at his sparse hair. “This… this has cost over a million already! They’re about to reach the biggest bomb I planted, fuck! Get ready for a close-up shot, blast them away!”

It was an incredible effort!

Finally, hope was in sight!

Wang Hao could see the minefield warning sign ahead. Just a few more steps and he’d be clear. However, the closer he got to safety, the more cautious he became! His last unfortunate mishap happened at the very end–a sinkhole! Luckily, he had been alert that time and narrowly escaped disaster. He couldn’t afford to be careless now!

Sure enough, after a few more steps, Wang Hao saw an area of ground ahead that seemed slightly raised, as if something might be buried underneath…

“Be careful!” In this dangerous moment, Wang Hao twisted his body and tackled the girl to the ground, but it was still a step too late–the bomb had already exploded–“Boom!!!!”

The power of the explosion was comparable to a real military bomb, blowing a huge crater in the ground and sending them flying through the air like riding on clouds: “Aaaaah!”

Then, with a crashing thud, they hit the ground, Wang Hao on the bottom!

This fall left Wang Hao battered and dazed, but luckily, thanks to his quick thinking, he saved their lives!

I knew it, this terrible luck today was just totally unreasonable!

Damn it, a film set unexpectedly turned into running through a Hollywood blockbuster…

But no matter what, I survived, and that’s what counts!

“Ha ha ha! We didn’t die! We’re still alive!” Jumping up, Wang Hao and that girl were practically crying tears of joy! Although they could barely recognize each other, they had survived!

That was indeed a shared hardship! Suddenly everything felt different!

“By the way, I still don’t know your name,” Wang Hao remembered, realizing he didn’t even know the girl’s name, he quickly asked, “I completely forgot about it until now…”

“My name is Lin Xiaoyun,” the girl smiled as Wang Hao finally brought it up, saying, “I’m twenty-nine this year. What about you?”

Wang Hao grinned and replied, “I’m twenty-four, so I should call you Sister Yun from now on.”

Lin Xiaoyun: “Deal!”

“You two really did something great there!” Wang Hao and the girl were feeling happy, when Director Wu, with a dark expression, surrounded by the film crew, came up and angrily pointed at Wang Hao: “Look what you two did! I spent over a million setting this up, and now it’s all ruined! Completely ruined! You two thieves, came all the way here to steal and ended up in a minefield?!”

“That’s right, that’s right, shameless, coming here to steal things!”

“Why even talk to them, just send them straight to the police station!”

Just as the group was about to advance, Wang Hao hastily shouted, “Hold on! Could there be some kind of misunderstanding here? I’m really not a thief. It was purely an accident today! In fact, I’m with the Swordsman of the Martial World crew, and it just so happened…”

Before Wang Hao could finish, the film crew members present burst into roaring laughter–

“Ha ha ha, did the bomb make you lose your mind? Part of the Swordsman of the Martial World crew? Why don’t you just fly then!”

“Isn’t that the big movie invested by Mr. Ren with Zi Huang joining? Blowing your own horn, atleast keep it reasonable!”

“Yes, yes, Swordsman of the Martial World has even changed its name to Legends of the Martial World now, you don’t even know that, ha ha ha!”

Director Wu’s face turned livid. If this thief just admitted honestly, it would be one thing, but to brag like this? You claim to hold a position in Swordsman of the Martial World, while I am the screenwriter for Domestic Agent! When others have renamed it Legends of the Martial World, a major series with an investment of nearly a hundred million, I’m not even qualified to film, and you’re boasting to the skies!

“I’ve also met Director Yang of the Swordsman of the Martial World,” Director Wu, with a dark face, sneered, “How could his people possibly end up here without reason?”

“Why don’t you let me make a quick phone call to clear it up,” Wang Hao shrugged helplessly: “I rushed out and forgot my mobile phone…”

“Wang, give him your phone to make the call!” Director Wu, teeth clenched with anger: “Kid, you better not be lying. With a loss of at least a million here, you’ll need to give me an explanation, or I won’t let you off!”

Hearing this, Lin Xiaoyun was almost in tears–already burdened by debt, and now this had added to it!

Being able to use a phone was relieving, Wang Hao quickly took the phone and stepped aside to start dialing: “Hey, Xueqi? I ran into some trouble… Yeah, I’m at the film city right now… Yes, hold on…” Wang Hao covered the microphone then asked Director Wu, “What’s the name of this film that you are shooting?”

Not even knowing the name of our crew! Director Wu’s cheeks trembled with anger: “War Era!”

“I’m currently at the War Era film crew,” Wang Hao told the phone, “Yeah, bring my ID, mobile phone, everything… Yes, yes, alright, they don’t believe I’m from the Swordsman of the Martial World crew… Okay, that’s it.”

After hanging up, Wang Hao returned the phone, then said, “Alright, they’ll be here soon, it’s not far.”

“I’ll see how soon your ‘soon’ is!” Director Wu waved his hand: “Surround these two until someone comes for them, then we’ll talk!”

Isn’t this all just a misunderstanding that could be resolved with a simple explanation?

Just as Wang Hao was about to explain, suddenly, the sound of police sirens blared intensely outside, four special police vehicles swiftly arrived, and as the doors opened, whoosh–more than twenty riot police officers descended, surrounding everyone!

Everyone was dumbfounded!

What the hell is going on?!

Quickly, a captain-like figure stepped out with the police officer who had been fervently chasing Wang Hao, and asked in a stern voice: “Which one is he?”

“It’s him!” the police officer pointed at Wang Hao in the crowd, saying, “I was patrolling the area when I saw him sneaking around, very suspiciously. I tried to stop him to check, but he just ran! He ran and I chased, and we ended up here!”
