Chapter 275 I'm Waiting for the Wind and You

There must be a demon in the abnormal situation.

From the end of last year to now, Lin Xian admits that he has not had a single day of peace and stability.

Either he is entangled in a mystery, or he is being targeted by the perverts called the Seven Deadly Sins, playing hide-and-seek with them.

Even though there was no danger some time ago, I was still scared by Kevin Walker.

But now these few months...

It's really too peaceful, isn't it?

He bent down and picked up the Rhine cat that had fallen to the ground.

This is now the God of Wealth of Rhine Company.

It must be provided well.

Lin Xian brushed off the dust on the cute Rhine cat doll and put it back on the table.

There is a row of Rhine cat dolls with various shapes, expressions and costumes neatly arranged there. They are all hot-selling models now. Even though the doll factory is working at full capacity day and night, they are still in short supply worldwide.

From this perspective, the fact that this cat has remained popular for 600 years and has not gone out of style shows that it is indeed quite something.

Never mind how the world changes in the future.

I, the Rhine cat, remain unchanged and make my own decisions forever.

After placing the Rhine cat.

Lin Xian bent down again.

Pick up the pen that you just threw away.

Then he held it between his fingers and continued to think with his chin supported by his left hand, while his right hand moved skillfully.

He couldn't figure it out.

Now that it has been confirmed that the mysterious old man in the fourth dream is Kevin Walker, and the young version of Kevin Walker has also locked himself in roughly 2023...

So what was he doing during this time?
I have always been in a state of preparing for danger and being vigilant.

While letting VV continue to learn, iterate and evolve, Liu Feng was also searching for traces of space-time particles at full power and around the clock at the Guizhou Sky Eye.

These few months of peaceful life.

Lin Xian is waiting for VV and Liu Feng to make a breakthrough, so what is Kevin Walker waiting for?
How come it seems like it disappeared?
There was absolutely no movement at all.

It can't be the same as VV guessed...

This talented hacker boy hacked into his own Bluetooth just to show off his skills and pretend to be talented, right?

Lin Xian never believed that this matter would be so simple.

Especially now that he has confirmed that the mysterious old man is Kevin Walker, Lin Xian doesn't believe that this man, who is recognized as the world's strongest hacker, the most powerful genius on the planet, and the most oppressive black hand... has no other purpose.

[There must be some big event coming up. ]

Now, Lin Xian always has an inexplicable feeling.

like……

Everyone is waiting for something to happen.

Everything is waiting for the time to come.

"in the end……"

The pen in Lin Xian's hand turned rapidly:
"What are you waiting for?"

……

Neimenggu, Alxa Airport.

A white space plane descended diagonally, glided for a while, and then landed steadily on the runway of Alxa Airport.

Countless staff and professional vehicles immediately moved forward to make various preparations. When everything was ready, the door of the space shuttle opened, and several astronauts wearing fully armed space suits walked out of the cabin and sat in another medical vehicle to undergo various examinations.

"It was a perfect first flight test."

On the tower.

Huang Que, who was wearing a brown coat and sunglasses, stood with his hands in his pockets and said to the officer in uniform next to him:

"This time the space shuttle carried out a six-day experimental mission in low-Earth orbit. All test data were excellent. Congratulations, Commander Zhang."

next to.

Commander Zhang, who was of a burly stature, took off his black goggles and smiled:

"Ms. Huang Que, thank you for your blessing. This is all thanks to you. We all know these things. In fact... when you asked us to borrow the aerospace plane, we thought you would let the aerospace plane test it in advance. But unexpectedly, until now, your plan has not started, so... we followed the original plan and let the aerospace plane conduct its first flight test six days ago."

"But this is not a bad thing for you."

Commander Zhang turned his head and looked at the mysterious woman in front of him:

"At least through this perfect test flight, it is proven that there are no problems with the performance or safety of this aerospace plane. When you use it in the future, you will feel more at ease. However, now intelligence and automation are becoming more and more advanced, and computer technology is becoming more and more developed. Except in emergency situations... generally there is no need to switch to manual operation mode. The automatic mode alone is enough to cope with various situations and perform various tasks."

"Don't worry, Ms. Huang Que. The country will never break its promise to you. Since we have agreed to lend you the space plane once, this promise will be valid forever. You can fulfill it whenever you want. We will never refuse."

After hearing this, Huang Que also took off his black sunglasses.

The crystal blue eyes flow like colored sand, crystal clear, shining, and deep.

She looked straight ahead, at the aerospace plane being towed by a tractor:

"Thank you, Commander Zhang. I am honored to be trusted by you."

Commander Zhang laughed and nodded:
"It's mutual. This is what we should do. You have been of great help to us. We are all looking forward to more extensive cooperation in the future."

"Speaking of this, I am a little curious. Since we parted in the imperial capital that day, you have spent most of your time in the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center... You rarely go out or leave. Of course, I don't mean to urge you, but out of curiosity, I want to ask, when do you plan to use this space plane?"

"You clearly planned this so early, and even reserved the right to use this space plane from us half a year ago. But until the first test flight of this space plane as originally planned, you didn't make any move... Did something go wrong? If there is anything you need our help with and I can help with, please don't hesitate to ask us at any time."

After hearing this, the yellow bird sighed softly:

"I can't help it, Commander Zhang. I also want to execute my plan as soon as possible."

"It's just a pity..."

She turned around and faced the outside of the launch center, the only wide road leading to here:
"[The person I'm waiting for hasn't come yet.]"

Commander Zhang seemed to be thinking about something, but in the end he didn't ask any more questions. He just chuckled:
"It's not a good look to be late, especially to keep a lady waiting for so long."

"That's okay." Huang Que tucked the scattered hair on her cheeks behind her ears:

“Better late than never.”

After a few seconds, she smiled and lowered her head:
"[Anyway... I've long been accustomed to waiting for him.]"

……

Crash. Rhine Company Building, Lin Xian's office.

Zhao Yingjun placed two invitations on the desk:

"Chu Shanhe is going to hold the Science Charity Dinner the day after tomorrow. You attended it last year, but it's a little later this year. In the past, it was basically held at the end of the year. This time, Chu Shanhe said that an overseas philanthropist is very supportive of the scientific development of Longguo and Donghai City, and also wants to attend this Science Charity Dinner. So after coordination, Chu Shanhe postponed this year's charity dinner to after New Year's Day. It's already mid-January."

Lin Xian nodded and picked up the invitation with his name on it.

Chu Shanhe wrote his own name on it.

Nowadays, he is considered a well-known figure in Donghai City. Not only has he won honorary titles such as Young Man Who Did Acts of Bravery and Righteousness and Top Ten Citizens, he has also joined the Donghai Chamber of Commerce, with Chu Shanhe as its president, and become one of its official members. So... looking at this invitation letter that was specially sent to him and was sent with full legitimacy, he couldn't help but feel a little emotional and sighing.

Last year's "Science Charity Dinner" was the first time in his life that he attended such an upper-class dinner.

Stiff, stiff, and a little out of place.

Moreover, at that time, he was not even eligible for an invitation. He was only invited to eat for free because of Zhao Yingjun.

In the huge venue, no one knew him, no one talked to him. He was just an unknown person, a small sesame, a tool standing behind Zhao Yingjun to block her invitation to dance.

And now.

A year has passed.

Things and people have changed, and things are also different now than they were in the past.

His life has undergone tremendous changes, with good and bad things, gains and losses.

Half a month ago.

2024 1 Month 1 Day.

New Year.

He went to the cemetery and stood in front of Professor Xu Yun's tombstone, bringing a bottle of wine and a bouquet of flowers to pay tribute to this old friend, teacher and friend.

New Year’s Day is the anniversary of Xu Yun’s death.

He didn't forget.

On Professor Xu Yun's tombstone, there was a photo of a young Xu Yun laughing heartily. It seemed as if it was just a day ago, as if Lin Xian saw the photo album of his doctoral graduation, in which he and his disciple Ji Xinshui laughed together.

In front of the tombstone, he told Xu Yun that Xu Yiyi was in good condition and there was nothing to worry about; he and Zhao Yingjun would take good care of Xu Yiyi, and there would be special nurses to do rehabilitation exercises for her, let her bathe, sunbathe, change clothes, etc.

Zheng Xiangyue from the next ward also moved into Xu Yiyi's ward, so the two little girls who shared the same illness could take care of each other.

"Teacher Xu, your previous prediction was correct. Human potential is unlimited. Only one year has passed, and the human testing experiment of the hibernation chamber has been completed. Except for amnesia, most of the other side effects have been overcome. It is expected that the first batch of hibernation chamber reservations will be available within this year. I have also agreed with Dean Gao Yan of Longke Academy that a place will be reserved for Xu Yiyi, and Xu Yiyi will be safely sent to the hibernation chamber when the time comes."

"There aren't many happy memories for Xu Yiyi in this world, so... I think it's better to forget them. Forgetting them completely may not be a bad thing for Xu Yiyi who will successfully wake up and start her life anew in the future."

"If I were still alive at that time, I would help you take care of Xu Yiyi after she wakes up and recovers from her vegetative state. As for whether Xu Yiyi would call me brother, uncle, grandpa, or burn incense for me... that would depend on my luck."

Clatter. Clatter.

Lin Xian squatted down and poured the bottle of white wine onto the gravel in front of Xu Yun's tombstone.

He knew that Professor Xu Yun often liked to drink a little wine when he was alive.

No matter whether he really likes drinking or just drinks to relieve his sorrow, he drinks often.

goo goo goo...

In the tilted wine bottle, huge bubbles float up one by one, causing the white wine in the bottle to roll up and down, and the liquid level gradually decreases.

finally.

With only one sip left, Lin Xian stood the bottle upright and held it up in front of Xu Yun's tombstone:
"Cheers, Mr. Xu."

He tilted his head back and drank it all in one gulp.

Screw on the bottle cap and place it next to the tombstone:

"I hope that when I come to see you next year... I can give you, Tang Xin, and those who shed blood for all this unnecessary bloodshed a true explanation."

Straighten up.

A gust of cold wind blew by, and the tombstones standing in the cemetery seemed to tell of the departure and oblivion of life.

Lin Xian let out a sigh.

Exhaled a cloud of light white mist.

There was no snow in the East China Sea this year, but it was still cold.

……

Office, come back to your senses.

Lin Xian discovered that Zhao Yingjun, who was wearing a white cotton coat today, was looking at him with great interest, with the silver earrings on her ears sparkling:

“Do you feel like things are very different now and time flies by?”

"You can see that." Lin Xian laughed dryly and put down the invitation in his hand:

"Speaking of which, I should thank you for giving me such an expensive suit when I was nothing and had no ability."

Zhao Yingjun smiled:

"Now you can buy a more expensive and more fitted suit, or even have one custom-made by an international master. Last year, because the dinner was in the evening, you didn't have time to order one, so you wore a simply modified version of the ready-made suit, which may not be so close-fitting in terms of style."

"That's not necessary." Lin Xian replied: "I quite like that set."

"Do not worry."

He raised his head and looked at Zhao Yingjun:
"I'll wear my tie tighter this time. Put on my armor and hold my sword."

puff-

Zhao Yingjun rarely laughed out loud. He covered half of his face with his white hands and couldn't help laughing:
"You still remember it."

"of course."

Lin Xian looked at the invitation letter belonging to Zhao Yingjun on the desk:

"Aren't you going to take yours?"

"Let's go together on that day." Zhao Yingjun pointed to the calendar:
"The day after tomorrow afternoon, Rhine Company and MX Company will hold an annual summary meeting together. You will definitely attend, right? All our vice presidents will also come. Brother Wang asked you to come too."

Lin Xian nodded:
"Brother Wang told me that I must go to this meeting. But..."

He looked at Zhao Yingjun:
"It's just that after the annual summary meetings of Rhine and MX, Brother Wang also arranged for me to hold a spirit-transmitting meeting for the middle-level managers of Rhine to briefly talk about the plans and requirements for the new year. I'm afraid it will take a while before I can attend the Science Charity Dinner."

"It's ok."

Zhao Yingjun habitually tucked the hair on her face behind her ear with her index finger and smiled at Lin Xian:

"I'm waiting for you."
