Chapter 22 Wang Yuns New Clever Trick, A Good Samaritan Emerges



The art of disguise was of utmost importance to Wang Yun. With this skill, he didn’t have to worry about being spotted under surveillance. Moreover, it would significantly increase the difficulty of apprehending him.

“Purchase advanced skill, Disguise.”

Wang Yun promptly spent one hundred thousand shock value points to acquire the Disguise skill. After this transaction, he still had over eight hundred thousand shock points left. Enough to handle emergencies.

Rising from his seat, he settled his bill and headed straight outside. As he walked, his mind was filled with an array of information related to disguise techniques.

Disguising had been a practice since ancient times, and even then, it had already evolved into a technical skill. In modern times, makeup emerged as another form of disguise. Playfully, makeup was often dubbed one of the “Four Great Sorceries.” These sorceries include sex reassignment, cosmetic surgery, makeup, and Photoshop.

Makeup, a fundamental part of disguise, was relatively simple to apply. More complex was the technique of crafting and using human masks.

The process of creating a human mask involved making a mold, casting a realistic plaster face on it, adjusting the plaster with plastic clay, finalizing the model, creating the mask through a blow-molding process, and then further polishing and coloring.

This procedure was intricate and required a multitude of materials, leading Wang Yun to realize that he needed a substantial amount of disguise equipment.

“This is somewhat troublesome,” Wang Yun murmured as he walked along the street.

The equipment posed one issue, and finding a suitable location for its fabrication was another. Ideally, he would need a secret base.

He slightly furrowed his brows, deciding that he should take action immediately.

“First, I’ll buy some basic makeup supplies, then I’ll get the tools needed to make human masks,” Wang Yun mumbled to himself.

Clothing, wigs, cosmetics, these basic items were easy for Wang Yun to purchase as they were readily available in numerous beauty shops. However, procuring the equipment needed to craft a human mask posed a bigger challenge.

“It’s rather risky to buy these items so openly. A simple disguise first might be wise.”

Wang Yun located a nearby beauty shop where he purchased some makeup and a wig. Donning the wig, he glanced at his attire before heading into a shopping mall. He found a reasonably priced clothing brand with a large store that carried a variety of options.

“Time to test my Alertness skill.”

Stepping into the clothing store, Wang Yun’s gaze darted subtly around the room. His sharp eyes scanned his surroundings, paying close attention to each sales associate as he approached some clothes to check their sizes.

In Wang Yun’s livestream, his audience watched his maneuvers and started to chatter in the comments.

“Hmm? He just bought a wig and now he’s purchasing clothes, and he also bought makeup. Is he planning to disguise himself?”

“That must be it. He seems on alert. If so, he might avoid capture for the time being. He’s clever.”

Approaching various garments, Wang Yun checked their sizes, then directly removed the tags and stomped on them. He repeated this process with four or five items.

“What’s he up to? He’s removing the tags and stepping on clothes?”

“I can’t figure it out. Don’t even try to guess his intentions.”

In the livestream, viewers watched Wang Yun’s peculiar actions with growing curiosity.

After stuffing four or five pieces of clothing into the bag that held his makeup, Wang Yun used his Alertness skill and scanned his surroundings. Noticing a woman nearby eyeing him with suspicion, he responded with a faint smile. Clutching a piece of clothing, he strode directly toward the counter.

Seeing Wang Yun heading toward the counter, the woman’s gaze moved away.

“Miss, I need to exchange these clothes. I bought several pieces here yesterday, but they seem a bit small.”

Approaching the counter, Wang Yun promptly placed one of the clothes on it.

The cashier behind the counter eyed the clothes and then Wang Yun before speaking, “Hmm? You want to exchange clothes? We can do that, but it shouldn’t affect our ability to resell them.”

“All I did was remove the tags,” Wang Yun replied with a nod.

“Removing the tags is a problem, it prevents us from reselling them.”

The clerk shook her head, picking up the clothes on the counter and frowning. “Also, you’ve dirtied the clothes. It seems like you wore them, which means they cannot be returned or exchanged.”

“Why can’t they be returned or exchanged? Can’t you just put a new tag on them?” Wang Yun asked, furrowing his brow at the clerk.

“You’ve removed the tags and dirtied our clothes. How can we exchange these for you? We certainly can’t sell them to other customers now,” the clerk responded, at a loss for words.

“If I can’t even exchange them, then your service is poor. I won’t be shopping here again,” Wang Yun retorted, visibly irritated. He picked up the clothes and left the store abruptly.

“Hmph, good riddance,” the clerk muttered, her face filled with disdain.

“What just happened?”

“Is this some kind of prank? Who behaves like this?”

“Seriously, isn’t he holding tens of thousands right now? Why go through all this trouble for clothes that only cost a few hundred?”

“He’s not buying clothes, he’s just messing around!”

“Amazing, you’re the real deal, man! Each time, you outdo yourself.”

Watching the livestream, all the viewers were stunned by Wang Yun’s latest stunt. The chat was full of exclamations of surprise and ‘666’, indicating praise and awe for Wang Yun’s actions.

“Only big brother could pull something like this off!”

“I’ve got to admit, I’m impressed. He keeps pulling these wild moves.”

At the same time, not too far away, four staff members were watching the live broadcast. When they saw what was happening, they were left speechless.

“I’ll go take care of the situation in the clothing store. You, go find that guy and switch the drone and camera to just a tech chip camera,” one staff member instructed another, who nodded in response.

Wang Yun seemed to be intending to disguise himself, so in the spirit of fairness, the program team decided to replace his drone and miniature camera with just a tech chip more performant than his current one, even if it meant incurring a significant cost.

As one of the staff members rushed into the clothing store to manage the situation, he overheard a customer telling the clerk, “Miss, that young man earlier, I saw him take several pieces of clothing from here. He removed all the tags and even stomped on them. He walked out without paying, didn’t he?”

Hearing this, the program staff member was taken aback.
