Genius Club-Chapter 1149 - 31 Truth and Loopholes_4
"The same saying goes, never underestimate those geniuses, Lin Xian. You can control your own issues, but you can’t control Einstein’s answers."
"If you ask questions about yourself, and Einstein utters a critical phrase... it doesn’t take much, even just one sentence, and the other geniuses will definitely be able to figure out your identity, location, plans, and goals."
"If you want to indirectly inquire whether Copernicus is really dead by asking related questions about yourself, I advise you to be very cautious. Don’t trust anyone in the Genius Club, nor any of their words."
"That includes Gauss, who seems innocently foolish, Da Vinci, who is approachable and kind-hearted, and Newton, who’s full of justice... No one knows what kind of hypocrisy lies beneath their Masks, whether they are humans or ghosts."
Lin Xian nodded:
"Don’t worry, there are still 3 days until the next Genius Club meeting on September 1st. I will think it over."
"Of course, I definitely hope you and Angelica are right. If it turns out that I was overly worried, a false alarm, there could be no better outcome. Then I will invite you to open a champagne."
With that said.
He stood up, ready to leave:
"Then I’ll head back first, Jask, we’ll stay in touch if anything comes up."
Jask also got up, shaking hands with Lin Xian again very formally:
"Although saying thanks might seem a bit formal, I really need to sincerely say..."
"Thank you, Lin Xian, thank you for informing me in time, and saving a life."
He thumped his chest, assuring Lin Xian:
"If there’s ever a day I can repay you, please don’t be polite to me, even at the cost of my own life, I won’t hesitate." freёweɓnovel.com
...
Afterward, Jask escorted Lin Xian to his car and watched him leave.
The driver of the Alfa Romeo, Little Li, looked back:
"Boss Lin, where are we heading now?"
"Let’s go home."
Lin Xian yawned:
"I’m still jet-lagged, haven’t slept in a long time. Let’s head home and get a good sleep."
Ring-a-ling-a-ling-a-ling-a-ling-a-ling-a-ling——
At that moment, the phone ringtone sounded.
Lin Xian picked it up to see, caller ID showed...
Gao Yang?
Ever since he left Hang City in a hurry last time, it has been half a month without much contact, what is it now calling?
"Hello?"
Lin Xian answered the phone.
"Hehehe!"
On the other side, Gao Yang was excited:
"Come over tonight to watch a video tape at my place!"
"What video tape?" Lin Xian asked casually.
"The video tape from Zhang Yuqian’s coffin! You haven’t forgotten, have you?"
"..."
Lin Xian closed his eyes, took a deep breath:
"You still have the nerve to mention this? It’s been months and you just sorted the video player? Why not invite me over in 600 years?"
"You really can’t wrong me here!"
Gao Yang defended confidently:
"This tape was a special small model made by Panasonic, and it was really hard to find a player. I went to a lot of trouble to get one from Japan for you."
"Actually, the main reason isn’t that, but the tape was severely damaged... You couldn’t possibly think the coffin was a time machine, where time stands still, right? Putting the tape directly into the player, it simply couldn’t be read. I found a professional repairman to fix the tape, and he just called me saying it has been fixed."
"Alright then."
Lin Xian switched the phone to his other hand:
"If you’re not busy, I can come over to your place now, no need to wait until evening."
"Ah, I’m really busy at the 4S shop right now, plus I still need to pick up the tape from the repairman, let’s do it tonight, come to my place around seven or eight, we’ll watch it together! I’ve been really eager to see what’s on this mysterious video tape!"
With that, Gao Yang hung up the phone.
Lin Xian closed his eyes.
He remembered Chu Anqing, who turned into Blue Stardust and disappeared,
Remembered the photo in Zhang Yuqian’s coffin, her smile as radiant as flowers,
Remembered the lives of two identical girls, misaligned by 24 years,
Remembered the eerie code 1952 in the diary...
He was indeed curious, slowly opening his eyes:
"What exactly is recorded on that video tape of Zhang Yuqian..."
"What content could it possibly contain?"
