Genius Club.

Chapter 153 Confrontation
Lin Xian recalled many people's figures in his mind...

But since Xu Yun passed away, he has met so many different kinds of people.

Not only in terms of work, I have had a lot of contact with many designers, people in the industry, and various business cooperation clients; in terms of personal life, I also attended alumni reunions and met many former classmates; not to mention many people I have only met once...

From this aspect alone, he really couldn't tell which people contacted him deliberately and which ones did it naturally.

“We should consider it from another angle.”

Lin Xian closed his eyes...

The situation of this hide-and-seek game is now very unfavorable to him. According to Huang Que, he should be in the light, while the enemy is lurking in the dark.

It is easy to dodge an open attack, but difficult to guard against a hidden arrow. How can there be a successful case of guarding against thieves for a thousand days?
"[To survive this cat-and-mouse game, I must catch the other person before he catches me.]"

This is a game of racing against time.

Lin Xian opened his eyes...

"Whoever is exposed first will die."

……

Suburbs of Donghai.

The villa, which had always been dim, was now brightly lit for a rare moment.

Ji Lin flipped through the printed manuscripts that filled the entire room. These were all official information released by Tunghai University...all collected from Xu Yun's laboratory.

Because Xu Yun passed away so suddenly, these manuscripts appear to be in a very messy state, with all kinds of them. Tunghai University simply did not sort them out, but directly photographed them all and made them public according to Professor Xu Yun's wishes.

What Ji Lin printed out were manuscripts with traces of handwriting.

Next to the table was the Rhine cat doll signed by Lin Xian.

The signature above has been copied and enlarged.

There are not only Chinese characters, but also English, numbers, and punctuation marks.

Handwriting comparison is a very important part in criminal investigation, as everyone's writing habits are unique.

The strength of horizontal and vertical strokes, the direction of the turns of numbers, the connection and rise and fall of English writing, the order of strokes... professionals can easily determine whether the handwriting is from the same person based on just a few words.

In some ways, handwriting is like a person's fingerprint, a personal anti-counterfeiting trademark that cannot be perfectly forged.

Ji Lin half opened his eyes and looked at the last manuscript on the table.

Look carefully at every symbol and stroke above...

finally.

Sighed and shook his head.

He threw the paper in his hand onto the floor.

Then he clasped his hands behind his head, lay on his back among the messy papers behind him, and stared at the gorgeous crystal chandelier on the ceiling.

drip.

A message came from a cell phone that was buried somewhere.

Ji Lin dug out his cell phone following the sound.

This is a message from [jealousy]:

"He has returned to the East China Sea."

Ji Lin tapped a few times on the nine-square grid buttons:
"let's start."

……

In the next few days, Lin Xian finally finished all the backlog of work since the class started.

Some are his own, and some are commissioned by Zhao Yingjun.

You have to do your job well. Since you are Zhao Yingjun's part-time secretary, you have to do your job well.

I have to say that Zhao Yingjun trusts himself very much.

Whether it was company secrets or business experience, she knew everything and took the initiative to share many things with Lin Xian. To be honest, Lin Xian really benefited a lot from it.

Interlaced like mountains.

For Lin Xian, who had never been exposed to high-level business operations, Zhao Yingjun's experience and guidance were like the Nine Yin Manual. No one would be so willing to teach him these real skills anywhere else.

Even a master has to keep some tricks up his sleeve when teaching his apprentice, let alone in the business world where intrigue is rampant.
So on this point, Lin Xian is also very grateful to Zhao Yingjun.

In fact, these business operation knowledge is still very important for Lin Xian’s current situation.

He had thought about it before.

Sooner or later, he would have to leave MX Company and find a way to make a lot of money so that Liu Feng would have enough capital to study the cosmological constant 42.

Lin Xian was very eager to know what the cosmological constant and 42 were.

It’s just a pity... Liu Feng can’t understand these things now.

600 years later, Big Face Cat’s father also spent more than ten years studying based on Liu Feng’s work before he figured out 42. Lin Xian did not expect Liu Feng to come up with anything in a short time.

But, definitely the sooner the better.

The sooner you understand the truth and secrets of 42, the sooner you will master the most powerful weapon against the Genius Club, so that you can solve all the mysteries while protecting yourself.

only……

Making a lot of money to sponsor Liu Feng must come after finding the murderer who killed Xu Yun and eliminating the hidden enemies and dangers.

The tragic death of Professor Xu Yun is still vivid in my mind.

I don't dare to act rashly at the moment. Not only can I not suddenly become rich, but I can't copy something new from my dreams to make money. This is undoubtedly the most dangerous behavior at the moment.

Therefore, Lin Xian set himself a strict three-step plan:

1. Before the danger is resolved, the murderer who killed Xu Yun is found, and his cat-and-mouse game ends, he should stay in MX Company honestly, not use things in dreams and the future to rewrite reality, hide in the forest, and wait for the enemy to be exposed.

2. Once you find clues about the murderer who killed Xu Yun and the "cat", take action immediately to eliminate them, bring them to justice, and resolve your own crisis.

3. After confirming that all crises have been resolved and that you have a certain degree of self-protection capabilities, start using the resources in the dream to make a lot of money, and then build the best and most advanced laboratory for Liu Feng, allowing him to devote himself to the research of the cosmological constant 42.

This is safe enough.

at this time.

On the 22nd floor of MX Company, in Zhao Yingjun's office, Lin Xian stood behind Zhao Yingjun, listening to her describe the details on the document while taking notes in his black notebook.

He studies very hard.

Just think of it as laying the foundation for your own business in the future. Otherwise, even if you can copy something from your dream, you may end up being exploited by others in the treacherous business world. "Lin Xian, you are making great progress."

Zhao Yingjun turned around, looked up at Lin Xian who was taking notes behind him, and smiled:

"It's only been a few days, I can already leave many things to you without worry."

"It's mainly because of your good guidance." Lin Xian closed his notebook and looked at Zhao Yingjun:
"Are you satisfied with the tidying up of the office?"

"very satisfied."

Zhao Yingjun admired the neatly arranged desk and the neatly organized file rack next to it:

"My office has never been so tidy. The working environment is indeed very important. I feel very good sitting here every day."

Lin Xian looked at the sofa next to the cabinet on the wall...

That night, the woman who called herself Yellow Bird was sitting there.

Lin Xian is still confused about how she got into this office.

Unfortunately, Zhao Yingjun attaches great importance to his privacy and there is no surveillance camera installed on the entire 22nd floor, so how Huang Que got in remains a mystery.

Zhao Yingjun said with certainty that only the two of them knew the password to the password door...but it was obvious that Huang Que must also know it.

This is very confusing.

Is it that Huang Que is also a cryptography expert...or did Huang Que know the password from somewhere else?
It stands to reason that someone as cautious as Zhao Yingjun would never leak the password.

But this woman Huang Que is really strange.

The laws of time and space that she had summarized were also never told to others, but she knew them all. So from this perspective... it was not strange that she knew Zhao Yingjun's password.

Doesn't this guy have any super powers?
Mind reading?
clairvoyance?
Although Lin Xian was mentally prepared and knew that the members of the Genius Club were definitely not ordinary people...but things like superpowers were still a bit too far-fetched.

This is not the Avengers, why are there so many fancy things?

……

the next day.

Gao Yang called and said that it happened to be an evening when Zhou Duanyun and Tang Xin were both free:

"It's time for the Donghai Gang to get together! Just say you'll host a party for the two of them at the class reunion. Now that you're back, don't delay it."

Lin Xian also replied and agreed, it was indeed something that had been agreed upon a long time ago.

night.

Gao Yang chose a nice Hunan restaurant. It wasn't a high-end place, but it served home-cooked dishes and had small private rooms, which was perfect for their small gatherings and chats.

Tang Xin was still dressed beautifully, and Zhou Duanyun was still in a suit.

Compared to these two people... Lin Xian and Gao Yang felt like the younger brothers holding an umbrella for the crooked-mouthed dragon king. Gao Yang took the opportunity to mutter in Lin Xian's ear:
"What are these two doing... They're just having a casual meal but they're being so formal. Are they going to have afternoon tea with the Queen?"

"Maybe the suit is Zhou Duanyun's true form." Lin Xian replied in a low voice.

The four of them were chatting happily in the small private room.

I don't know whether it was intentional or not, but Gao Yang immediately pulled Zhou Duanyun to sit together, so Tang Xin could only sit next to Lin Xian.

Zhou Duanyun was very happy while drinking. He drank a lot of wine and told everyone about his experiences over the years.

He was admitted to a good university, but dropped out before completing his studies to start his own business. His business then grew bigger and bigger, like a typical young man who made a comeback.

"So what are you mainly doing now?" Gao Yang asked curiously.

"It involves all kinds of industries." Zhou Duanyun said with a smile.

"You didn't come to take graduation photos when we graduated from high school... A lot of people said you won the lottery. Is it true?" After a few drinks, Gao Yang started gossiping.

Zhou Duanyun picked up the wine glass and drank it all, then wiped the corners of his mouth:
"We are classmates, so I won't hide this from you. I was indeed lucky at the time and won the lottery. I used the money from the lottery to make my fortune and have come this far step by step."

"Envy!" Gao Yang raised his glass and clinked it with Zhou Duanyun:
"Let's get some luck too!"

"Yeah, give us some luck!" Tang Xin also raised his glass with a smile, and everyone drank it together.

"What is Tang Xin doing now?" Zhou Duanyun looked at her.

"I work at the Donghai Fuxing Pharmaceutical Research Institute." Tang Xin answered truthfully.

"Oh~~~~"

Zhou Duanyun suddenly realized and laughed:
"I know your boss!"

"Is this true?" Tang Xin said with a smile:

"He's a big shot... He was once Professor Xu Yun's mentor! You actually know him! Are you close to him?"

"It's okay. I've dealt with him a few times in business, but I just don't like him as a person." Zhou Duanyun said bluntly:

"He's so full of himself."

"Then I don't know." Tang Xin spread his hands:

“I think he’s a pretty nice guy.”

"If he was a good person...why did you abandon Xu Yun in the first place?" Lin Xian interrupted.

Lin Xian knew how hard Xu Yun had been through over the years, so he really didn't have a good impression of this mentor.

"You seem to have some complaints about this old man, Lin Xian." Tang Xin turned her head and looked at Lin Xian:

"Are you on good terms with Professor Xu Yun in private? You also complained to him about Professor Xu Yun during the class reunion."

"It's OK. Xu Yun is also a teacher at Donghai University. Although he has never taught me...but our company has business dealings with him, so we have met him privately a few times."

Lin Xian looked at the incandescent light reflected in the wine glass:

"Professor Xu Yun also has a daughter who is in a vegetative state in the hospital. Sometimes when I think about it, I feel that he has a miserable life."

boom!
Gao Yang punched the table:

"Speaking of this makes me angry! It's already the end of the Chinese New Year, and the two murderers who hit and killed Xu Yun haven't been caught yet!"

Gao Yang was obviously drunk, and he cursed angrily:

"These people are such bastards! I despise those who murder scientists the most! If you have the guts, go kill the real bad guys. Why kill a poor scientist? If these people are caught, they can't get away with the death penalty! They should be skinned alive!"

After cursing, he snorted coldly and looked around at the three people:

"Tell me! Is that right?"
