Rebirth 09: Starting from taking charge of Running Man on CCTV

Deng Chao shook his head smugly.

"Let me tell you a secret."

He rubbed his hands together, grinning in a way that made him look incredibly smug.

"I've been practicing tearing name tags in secret for a long time recently, do you believe me?"

Shen Teng replied with a smile.

"With your old bones and limbs, even three years of training wouldn't be of any use."

"Who are you calling old and frail?!"

Deng Chao pointed at Shen Teng.

"You can't even outrun my old arms and legs!"

Shen Teng nodded.

"That makes sense, but can you outrun Brother Chen?"

Deng Chao's smile froze for half a second.

He glanced at Li Chen secretly.

Li Chen was slowly moving his neck, and it cracked twice.

The sound was exceptionally clear in the quiet hall.

Deng Chao's Adam's apple bobbed slightly.

"Rush!"

He didn't give himself time to think and turned to rush straight towards the Running Man team.

Wallace Huo was the first to follow.

Yuan Hong followed closely behind.

Huang Zhiwei strode forward silently, like a moving wall.

Liu Shishi and Tang Yan exchanged a glance and took small steps to flank from the side.

The Running Man cast was also in an uproar.

Li Chen went to meet Huang Zhiwei. The two big men bumped into each other in the middle of the hall, their four hands gripping each other's wrists, their feet scraping the ground as they pushed forward.

Zheng Kai darted out like a bullet from a gun, his target precise... Yuan Hong.

Yuan Hong turned and ran.

Zheng Kai caught up with him in a few quick steps, and the two of them started circling around the mahogany pillar in the hall.

Shen Teng glanced at the battle situation and decisively took two steps back to the wall.

My back had just touched the wall when I looked up.

Huo Jianhua stood three meters away and smiled at him.

"Brother Teng, stop running."

Shen Teng remained expressionless.

"Brother Hua, there's no point in tearing me apart. I have nothing on me."

"We still have to tear it."

Huo Jianhua moved closer to him.

Shen Teng began to move sideways along the wall, his speed was not fast but his steps were steady.

"There's really no need for that. You'd be better off tearing apart someone with fighting ability..."

Before he could finish speaking, Huo Jianhua pounced on him.

Shen Teng sidestepped, barely dodging the attack.

"Stop chasing me! I'm out of breath after just a few steps! You're bullying an honest person!"

On the other side of the hall.

Hu Ge bypassed the battlefield where Li Chen and Huang Zhiwei were locked in combat and fixed his gaze on Liu Shishi.

Liu Shishi was standing behind a pillar, peeking out.

Hu lowered his body and crouched down to walk around her from the left.

three meters.

Two meters.

one meter.

His hand reached out.

"Whoosh..."

A figure cut in from the side.

Deng Chao.

His speed was unbelievable. He slid across between Liu Shishi and Hu Ge, and his shoulder knocked Hu Ge's hand away.

Brother Hu took a half step back, his eyes widening.

Deng didn't give him time to react.

The moment their bodies made contact, Deng Chao's right hand had already reached behind Brother Hu.

Five fingers gripped the edge of the name tag.

One pull.

"Sizzle..."

Clean and neat.

Brother Hu froze.

He looked down at the nameplate in Deng Chao's hand that read "Brother Hu," then looked up at Deng Chao's smug smile.

"Brother Deng...you've definitely trained."

Deng Chao stuffed the brand-name item into his pocket and patted Brother Hu on the shoulder.

"I had no choice; you almost tore my teammate apart, so I had to intervene."

The loudspeaker came on.

"Brother Hu, you're out!"

Brother Hu raised his hand and made a "Go for it!" gesture towards the Running Man team before being led away by the man in black.

Almost at the same time.

East side of the hall.

Zheng Kai chased Yuan Hong for three laps but couldn't catch up. Frustrated, he suddenly changed direction and rushed towards Tang Yan.

Tang Yan was about to go around behind the pillar to hide when she turned around and Zheng Kai was already behind her.

"Sorry, Tang Yan!"

Zheng Kaichong smiled at her, and with lightning speed, tore off her name tag.

Tang Yan exclaimed "Ah!", covered her back, and shouted at Zheng Kai's back.

"Zheng Kai, it's not fair that you ran so fast!"

The loudspeaker blared again.

"Tang Yan, out!"

The two broadcasts should be no more than ten seconds apart.

The number of people in the hall has decreased sharply.

The remaining members of the Chinese Paladin team are Deng Chao, Wallace Huo, Yuan Hong, Liu Shishi, and Huang Zhiwei.

Five people.

The Running Man cast still consists of Li Chen, Shen Teng, Wang Baoqiang, and Zheng Kai.

Four people.

Shen Teng was still hiding from Huo Jianhua along the wall.

But he had nowhere to hide.

The end of the corner is a dead end.

Huo Jianhua approached from the front, while Yuan Hong somehow managed to dodge to the other side.

The two people, one in front and one behind, sandwiched Shen Teng in the middle.

Shen Teng looked to the left, then to the right.

"No, you two grown men are surrounding a frail-looking girl..."

Huo Jianhua and Yuan Hong pounced at the same time.

Shen Teng made a symbolic attempt to block it, and Yuan Hong tore the name tag off from behind him.

"I knew it."

Shen Teng patted his clothes, a smile still on his face.

"I hadn't even started struggling before it was over. You guys are so inconsiderate."

"Shen Teng, out!"

The broadcast had just ended.

A figure emerged from behind a pillar in the hall.

Wang Baoqiang.

He somehow managed to get into Huo Jianhua's blind spot, and while Huo Jianhua was still basking in the smugness of tearing Shen Teng apart, he pounced on him from the side.

"I've been looking for you for ages, Brother Hua!"

The moment Huo Jianhua turned his head, Wang Baoqiang had already ripped off his name tag.

He looked down at his empty back, his face filled with disbelief.

"Where did you come from?!"

Wang Baoqiang grinned and waved the name tag in his hand.

"I've been squatting behind that pillar for ages."

"Wallace Huo, out!"

Before the broadcast had even faded, Yuan Hong pounced on Wang Baoqiang.

Wang Baoqiang took a step back, lost his footing, and staggered.

Yuan Hong seized the opportunity and tore off his name tag.

"Wang Baoqiang, out!"

Before Yuan Hong could even catch his breath, Zheng Kai had already attacked from behind him.

"Brother Yuan Hong, I'm sorry!"

"Sizzle..."

"Yuan Hong, out!"

After tearing Yuan Hong's clothes, Zheng Kai turned and ran, but Huang Zhiwei's long arm had already grabbed his collar.

Zheng Kai struggled desperately, pushing off the ground with his feet to leap forward.

Huang Zhiwei remained motionless, while his other hand ripped the name tag off his back.

"Zheng Kai, out!"

At the same time, Li Chen rushed up from the front and, before Huang Zhiwei could let go, tore off his name tag.

"Huang Zhiwei, out!"

The broadcast continued in a series of announcements.

Like setting off firecrackers.

Liu Shishi huddled in a corner, watching helplessly as the chaotic battle escalated from a fever pitch to a point where supplies were completely exhausted.

One by one, people were eliminated, and one by one, they were taken away by the men in black.

When she came to her senses, there were only three people left standing in the huge hall.

Li Chen.

Deng Chao.

And herself.

Liu Shishi glanced at Deng Chao, then at Li Chen, and silently pressed her back against the wall.

Deng Chao, panting heavily, stared at Li Chen, who was ten meters away.

Li Chen was also panting, but his breathing was much more steady than Deng Chao's.

The two stared at each other for three seconds.

Deng Chao wiped the sweat from his forehead and grinned.

"Chen'er".

Li Chen slowly moved his shoulders.

"Brother Chao".

"You know what a mess this is."

Deng Chao put his hands on his hips, tilted his head and looked at him, "We were on the same team just now, but now we have to tear each other apart."

"Um."

Li Chen nodded, a smile appearing on his lips.

"bring it on."

Deng Chao's smile slowly faded.

He rolled up his sleeves even further, lowering his center of gravity.

In the vast hall of the Vermilion Bird Tower, the lantern light cast long shadows of the two people.

One is the strongest force in the Running Man team.

One of them was a team leader who had secretly trained for three months as an undercover agent.

The hall was so quiet you could hear two people breathing.

Deng Chao licked his lips.

"Chen'er".

"Um?"

"Let me make this clear first..."

Deng Chao slightly bent his knees.

"If I beat you today, you're not allowed to renege on the deal."

Li Chen chuckled but didn't reply.

He took a step forward.

Deng Chao's heel also slid half an inch along the ground.

The distance between the two people has shrunk from ten meters to eight meters.

Seven meters.

five meters.

The air seemed to be on fire.
