My dream connects to three thousand years later.

Chapter 299 The Bald Eagle: An Enemy of the Nation? Igniting Global Public Opinion! (Third Update)

"But then again, they're calling me the Son of Satan now!"

Chu Zhu pondered the title for a moment, his expression somewhat subtle. For some reason, he felt that this title was much cooler than "Holy Son"...

"Um... what's next for us?" Hozis asked cautiously.

“Father!” Z suddenly spoke, interrupting Chu Zhu and Huo Qisi’s conversation, “The vulnerability in the Golden Dawn online conference room has been successfully patched... They’ve started tracing my location! I’ve moved my coordinates to the villa where James just left.”

"Oh." Chu Zhu wasn't too disappointed; being able to listen to the conversation on the other end was already a pleasant surprise for him. And...

The next time I enter the dream, I can look for flaws again!
Compared to that, he was actually quite curious about what expression James was wearing right now!

After a brief pause, Z continued, "On the internet, the information blockade against you is gradually being lifted... Numerous videos have surfaced on the X platform showing you being dragged out of the Tesla by the police! This matter has already caused a huge uproar online..."

After all, Chu Zhu's reputation is now incredibly high, truly at its zenith—out of the 300 million people in the White-headed Eagle, at least 100 million know of Chu Zhu's existence! That means one in three people knows of him!
"I'm rather curious, what other crazy tricks will Golden Dawn pull next!" Chu Zhu wasn't surprised that the blockade was lifted.

Even a powerful force like the Golden Dawn couldn't maintain such a high-intensity blockade indefinitely. And once it's lifted, given its massive user base, an explosion is almost inevitable!
As for forcibly deleting or suppressing messages... that's pointless!

Chu Zhu's fame is now immense; in fact, it could be said that his fame was entirely due to Golden Dawn's efforts... Moreover, Chu Zhu wasn't actually captured, and Golden Dawn remained submerged throughout...

So even if they suppress the news, what's the point for Golden Dawn? If this gets exposed, it's the US government that'll be in trouble, not Golden Dawn…

“Father!” Z said softly, “Coach Yuan, the virtual phone number I gave you… has been dialed dozens of times!”

Chu Zhu narrowed his eyes. His phone had been specially modified, otherwise, just a location tracking would have been enough for the other party to know exactly where he was!

"...That!" Hozis began cautiously, his face filled with unease, "We...we also saved my daughter..."

"Don't worry!" Chu Zhu drove the Tesla to a deserted spot, got out, and got into another fully charged Tesla that was being controlled by the Z Invasion. He then continued driving, saying, "I rescued him!"

“Z, given our current identities… no, to be on the safe side, let’s change our identities again!”

Chu Zhu thought for a moment and said cautiously, "According to what we did before, the person ranked third in the sequence should book a flight from Houston to Mexico City online! As quickly as possible... The most important thing is to keep the process running smoothly. It's okay if we need to move around offline! You know, Skynet is still searching intensively... It's far from time to be careless."

“Father, your command!” Z’s voice, as always, carried a steely edge.

at the same time.

News of Chu Zhu's suspected arrest spread at an unimaginable speed throughout the United States, Europe and America, and even the entire world...

They even quickly crossed the wall and entered the Chinese internet... At this moment, countless netizens on the Chinese internet were completely dumbfounded after seeing this news... What happened?
When they woke up early, the news they received was that Chu Zhu had successfully broken the 200-meter record in track and field, and barring any unforeseen circumstances, he would soon break the 100-meter record as well! He had become yet another track and field god... and an undisputed source of glory for the yellow race!

Given Chu Zhu's immense popularity, this directly sparked a war online...

The war between Chu Zhu's haters and fans!
Haters believe it's either a rumor or he's on drugs; if it's a rumor, Chu Zhu has absolutely no shame. Fans feel that even if it's a rumor, it has nothing to do with their idol… it wasn't their idol who did this! This kind of topic is obviously stirred up by rival groups…

Yes, regardless of whether they're haters or fans, everyone tacitly agrees that... this news is fake! Or rather, who would believe it's true?

It wasn't until the national sports authorities issued a public statement that the matter was definitively settled... leaving both fans and critics completely stunned.

Even this time, the fans didn't relentlessly attack the haters...

But the news hasn't even died down yet, and he's already been arrested?!
Even Kuroko's first reaction at this moment was not to be excited about turning the tide, but to be completely bewildered and wonder if he was dreaming.

As they looked at the information copied from the external website, they became increasingly confused...

"No... even if he really used drugs, shouldn't he be suspended? What do you mean by arresting him directly?"

"Wait a minute, what do you mean by mobilizing hundreds of police cars! Blocking off all roads in the city, mobilizing dozens of helicopters to arrest him... Is it possible that Chu Zhu was actually filming a movie?"

"What do you mean, the no-fly zone in Florida was just lifted? It's highly suspected to be related to Chu Zhu's arrest... and it's been confirmed there that it has nothing to do with the movie? What do you mean, their fans have already dug up all the inside information... it's definitely not a movie shoot? Holy crap, are their fans that powerful?!"

"What do you mean... the National Guard got wind of it! And almost had to be deployed to arrest someone...??? Are you sure you're not kidding me? A celebrity and an athlete, is it really necessary? Anyone who didn't know better would think they were targeting a scientist who could change the course of the world..."

"Holy crap, what do you mean... Chu Zhu's fans in the White Eagle are starting to gather and prepare to march! Calling for the release of the innocent Chu Zhu? This... is this reasonable?!"

Many people suspected that this was some kind of April Fool's Day prank... but today isn't April Fool's Day!
But when they peeked over the wall, they immediately realized in silence that not only was the news that had reached China true, but it was even somewhat overblown... because the bald eagles weren't just preparing for a march, they had already started one!

As messages were forwarded to the intranet, countless netizens across China uttered a single sentence: "!? Are you kidding me... Is this level of treatment specifically for an athlete who used performance-enhancing drugs? Are you trying to kill a mosquito with an atomic bomb?!"

All I can say is, this is incredibly challenging...

This not only involves Chu Zhu, but also seems to implicate the White Eagle authorities... and the whole situation is incredibly bizarre! It's incomprehensible to ordinary people why this would happen...

However, countless pieces of evidence also prove that this is true... All these factors combined have directly ignited global public opinion...

While this incident certainly caused a huge stir on the Chinese internet—in fact, five out of the top 30 trending topics on Weibo were related to it, and a quick scroll through Douyin reveals numerous related reports—it pales in comparison to the terrifying level of attention it garnered on the global internet.
