Genius club - #156 - Genius Club Chapter 17 Good and Evil (1/2)
“You have just arrived in Donghai City not long ago. Do you know the things around Lin Xian so well?” Tang Xin looked at Zhou Duanyun and asked.
Zhou Duanyun used a fork to pick up the dishes on the white plate and put it into his mouth:
“Whether it’s Donghai City or other places… the drunken chatting in the business circle is just a matter of men and women. Although I haven’t been in Donghai for a long time, I have heard many things about Donghai mentioned by others.”
“Lin Xian is now very famous in the business circle of Donghai. Of course… the reason why he is famous is not because of how good he is, but because of the women around him.”
Seeing that Tang Xin was listening very seriously, Zhou Duanyun smiled slightly, wiped the corners of his mouth with a towel, and continued:
“Lin Xian’s boss, the president of MX Company, Zhao Yingjun, is the only daughter of the Zhao Group in the imperial capital. Although their identities seem to be completely different… but according to everyone’s speculation, the relationship between the two is definitely unusual.”
“The two danced at the New Year’s dinner two years ago… A woman with Zhao Yingjun’s personality would never dance with anyone else, but Lin Xian is an exception. You don’t need to think about it to know why.”
“After I saw that you were interested in Lin Xian that day, I made a special inquiry for you, and I did learn some interesting news.”
Zhou Duanyun looked up at Tang Xin:
“Lin Xian is now serving as Zhao Yingjun’s personal secretary, and before that Zhao Yingjun had not hired a secretary for a long time. Everyone in MX Company secretly felt that the relationship between the two was unusual… There should be no smoke without smoke, although there should be no definite relationship between the two. It’s a romantic relationship, but I think Mr. Zhao is obviously interested in and has thoughts about Lin Xian.”
…
Tang Xin said nothing.
She had indeed never heard Lin Xian mention these things, and of course, she had not asked specifically about them.
“That’s Lin Xian’s own business.”
Tang Xin turned his head and looked out the window at the neon night scene of the East China Sea.
“But actually, I don’t think Lin Xian has the kind of male-female feelings towards Zhao Yingjun.” Zhou Duanyun said with a smile.
“Do you know Lin Xian very well?” Tang Xin turned around and looked at Zhou Duanyun:
“I feel like you two aren’t too familiar with each other.”
“That’s true.” Zhou Duanyun nodded:
“But after all, we have been classmates in high school for three years, and we talked a lot when sending Gao Yang back yesterday. I still know Lin Xian’s situation very well.”
“In fact, Lin Xian’s greatest advantage is his kindness and warm-heartedness. This is the same whether it is Lin Xian in high school or Lin Xian now. But at the same time, this is also his biggest shortcoming -“
After a pause, Zhou Duanyun squinted his eyes and said:
“[Lin Xian is a very soft-spoken person. He is not good at rejecting others.]”
“He will agree to most other people’s requests. Even if some things are troublesome, Lin Xian, who is kind and warm-hearted at heart, will often reluctantly agree.”
“This doesn’t seem to be a shortcoming.” Tang Xin smiled.
On this point, she still agreed with what Zhou Duanyun said:
“Did Lin Xian often help others in high school?”
When talking about Lin Xian, Tang Xin talked more.
“Yes.”
Zhou Duanyun smiled and replied:…. .
“Lin Xian was like this when I was in high school. To be honest, he helped me a lot at that time. To be honest, my family situation was not good when I was in high school. I sat in the back corner of the classroom. I also had a low self-esteem and was unsociable. I rarely Someone knows me.”
“But many times, Lin Xian will notice me…especially when I am ignored and ignored a lot, he will always be very considerate and want to bring me in.”
After hearing this, Tang Xin smiled:
“Then aren’t you also very grateful to Lin Xian?”
“This kind of thing…how to say it.”
Zhou Duanyun picked up the red wine glass, drank half of it in one breath, shook the blood-red liquid, and put it back on the table:
“Looking at my age now, I am definitely very grateful to Lin Xian. But when I was a teenager… I hated people like Lin Xian very much.”
“Why?” Tang Xin was confused.
“It’s hard to explain this emotion.”
Zhou Duanyun crossed his hands on his chest, leaned on the back of the sofa and said slowly:
“At that time, Lin Xian was very beautiful, handsome and good at sports. He was a legend in the whole school. He was always surrounded by a circle of men and women, and had best friends like monitor Gao Yang… I believe that every ten years old Boys of all ages want to live like Lin Xian.”
“But I’m far behind. I can only huddle in the corner of the classroom every day without daring to raise my head. I don’t even dare to look into other people’s eyes when talking to my classmates.”
“In this case, I think it is best for everyone to ignore me, ignore me, and ignore me. The classroom at that time was like a prison to me. I didn’t want to stay for a second.”
“But sometimes Lin Xian always had good intentions and wanted to take me with him to activities with his classmates. Unfortunately, such good intentions only made me feel embarrassed and hypocritical. Instead, his good intentions turned into a sharp blade, like a knife. I forced him to be dragged into the sunshine as if he were being executed.”
…
Zhou Duanyun’s words stopped abruptly here.
There was a long silence between the two.
Tang Xin can understand Zhou Duanyun’s mentality very well. After all, she was also a transfer student who came here halfway…
To a certain extent, I feel the same way as Zhou Duanyun.
“But that was all in the past, now–u003eu003e
I am still very grateful to Lin Xian. “
Zhou Duanyun’s painting style changed and his smile returned again:
“That’s why I’m very concerned about Lin Xian and you. If I can really bring you two together, it will be a belated repayment to Lin Xian.”
“Actually, these things and words are something I usually wouldn’t tell others. They are all embarrassing things and dark psychology of adolescence. It’s quite embarrassing to mention them.”
Tang Xin shook his head:
“I’m surprised that you can tell me this, because you were very glamorous and successful at the class reunion, and you never mentioned these things.”
When Zhou Duanyun said these words to herself, Tang Xin did feel that Zhou Duanyun became a lot more real, and she also felt that the distance between the two was getting closer.
“Because I really want to help you, I want to help both of you.” Zhou Duanyun smiled and raised his glass, inviting Tang Xin to drink with him for the first time tonight:
“How about it? Do you want to hear my plan?”
Tang Xin lowered his head and smiled, sat up straight, picked up the red wine glass and raised it gently:…. .
“Although I’m embarrassed. But…it doesn’t hurt to listen.”
The two of them raised their glasses to each other and drank the red wine.
…
At night, in dreams.
Lin Xian’s exploration of Xindonghai City has been further deepened in the past few days.
The latest result is that the code to open the door of the giant bookstore chain has been perfectly deciphered.
As long as he uses the correct password to open the door, the alarm will not be triggered, and Lin Xian will have no problem even if he stays in the bookstore all night.
In any era, books are the most direct treasures. Now that the safe is temporarily clueless, you should spend more time in the bookstore to look for some useful clues.
Although there is no history book that Lin Xian needs most urgently.
However, history is a very broad thing. It always exists in various books with various clues. Even if all major events are erased, the history can still be roughly inferred from some detailed descriptions. towards.
But after all, Lin Xian is not a quantum reading artificial intelligence. If he really reads books one by one to find information, it is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
He also tried to move towards the more central location of Xindonghai City. He was very curious about what was in the limit building that was submerged in the sky and what kind of power ruled Xindonghai City.
It’s just a pity that he encountered two difficulties…
First, the closer to the center, the tighter the security patrols, and there are even a large number of real police officers.
This is very annoying.
Because of the differences in appearance, temperament, clothing, etc., “outsiders” like Lin Xian and “original residents” of Xindonghai City can identify authenticity at a glance.
It’s a feeling that’s hard to describe.
Just like a country bumpkin coming to the city, even if he wears the same clothes and combs his hair in a fashionable style, it is still obvious at a glance that he is not a local.
Xintonghai City has been isolated from the outside world for hundreds of years, and has long formed its unique cultural temperament and customs. It is easy to fool mechanical dogs and robots, but it is really difficult to fool real patrol officers.
At least, not yet, as Lin Xian’s imitations have repeatedly been revealed.
The second difficulty is also in penetrating into Xindonghai City.
He originally wanted to steal a flying motorcycle and fly in directly…but the alarm would always be triggered inexplicably, and he would be exposed every time he flew to a fixed area.
Lin Xian guessed that there was some kind of regional detection mechanism?
Then on the ground, there will be several high walls that separate different urban areas, and Lin Xian cannot pass through them on foot.
“It’s a little stuck.”
Lin Xian scratched his head. At this time, it was as if he had encountered a level that he couldn’t pass in a game, or a maze where he couldn’t find the correct route, and his progress was stuck.
And there is no strategy to check. Only through countless trial and error, death, and piles of corpses can the correct route be found.
But this method is still too stupid. He only has one chance to die a day, and it is very likely that he will die hundreds of times. In the past year or two, he still has not been able to reach the central city.
so……
“It’s better to read books in the bookstore for a while first.”
There are many books about New Donghai City in the bookstore, covering all aspects. Why not first learn about the security details and see if you can find any loopholes.
As for…
Now the two of them basically went their separate ways as soon as they walked out of the checkpoint, each doing their own thing. Lin Xian once tried to use it to crack the identity authentication gate on the high wall in the city, but the device was too advanced and could not connect to the “Bluetooth headset”, let alone crack the password.
…
This afternoon.
Lin Xian was fishing in the MX company office.
Ding dong.
From Tang Xin:
“Are you free tonight, Lin Xian? I have something I want to give you~”
