(Monthly ticket bonus chapter!)_6 Chapter 626: Chapter 27: Blue-Eyed Girl!
Time-Space Assassin!
(Monthly ticket bonus chapter!)_6 If all my deductions are correct,
I’m now facing two formidable enemies:
The mysterious old man and Kevin Walker’s faction.
And,
Jask and the Time-Space Assassin’s faction.
“They’ve come to attack me at home...”
Lin Xian cursed under his breath:
“I must take the initiative to strike.”
No matter what, it’s impossible to stay in Donghai City now.
...
Though I don’t know why,
the Time-Space Assassin seems to only target me in Donghai City; comparatively, Copenhagen and abroad are safer.
But I can’t just keep hiding in Copenhagen, can I?
I must find a way to get close to either Jask or Kevin Walker...
In the end, I have to break the game with one of them.
Compared to Kevin Walker, who hides in the shadows without a trace, Jask, who is in the public eye, is obviously easier to approach and investigate.
“World’s richest, immigrant to Mars dreamer, creator of Starlink, owner of Twitter...”
Lin Xian recited Jask’s titles silently:
“President of Tesla, launcher of Starship rockets, seller of space travel tickets, playboy...”
Lin Xian paused.
“Playboy.”
This world’s richest man’s private life is incredibly colorful, involving female singers, female stars, Hollywood actresses; he’s the top playboy worldwide.
“Hollywood actresses...”
Lin Xian remembered an old acquaintance.
She stopped him in the parking lot at the Donghai City commendation ceremony;
handed him the keys to Einstein’s House inside the Alphard business vehicle;
stepped out of the car in front of the Peninsula Hotel, turned her head back:
“If one day, you really decide to come to Princeton...”
She made a ‘six’ gesture with her left hand, pressed it against her cheek, raised her eyebrows and smiled at me, her red lips lightly moving:
“call me.”
...@@@@
Lin Xian straightened up from his seat.
Peering through the bullet-ridden rooftop into the pitch-black night that had turned into early morning, gazing at the stars above.
Angelica.
“Sure thing, President Lin,” came the reply.
As the Alphard business vehicle took the next turn onto the overpass, Lin Xian memorized the phone number Angelica had written in eyebrow pencil, added the international dialing code for Mi Country, and dialed the phone number that was a year overdue...
Soon, the call connected.
On the other end, the woman with a natural grasp of Chinese said in a light laugh:
“Long time no see, Mr.
Lin.
Your call has been hard to wait for, and if it were any later...
I might have forgotten about you entirely.”
“Good things take time,” Lin Xian also said with a smile.
“I fear...
it’s not a good thing, is it, Mr.
Lin?”
On the other end of the phone, the Oscar-winning actress known as The Chameleon Witch chuckled:
“If I’m not mistaken...
you must be in trouble, right?
Otherwise, you wouldn’t be calling me.”
“But that’s fine, in fact, I hope you are in trouble...
because only then will you be willing to exchange information with me.”
“So tell me, are you ready to reveal the truth about the Genius Club, as well as the killer of the old man, Ji Lin, and Ji Lin’s parents?” she asked.
Lin Xian switched the phone to his other hand:
“Tell me, after you know the truth and the identity of the killer, what will you do?” he asked.
“Hehe.”
Angelica let out a light chuckle on the call:
“What else can I do?
Could I find a director and a screenwriter to make a documentary film about them?”
“I can tell you frankly, even though Ji Xinshui and Ji Lin are not my blood relatives...
the kindness of fostering is greater than that of kinship, and I’ve always regarded Ji Lin as a brother.
So, if you truly can tell me who the murderer is...”
On the phone, the playful laughter suddenly ceased.
In its place came an icy coldness as cold as snow descending:
“[I will kill them.]”
“Can you get a gun?” Lin Xian asked, getting to the heart of his concern.
“Easily, Mr.
Lin.
You have to remember, this is the land of the free—America,” she replied confidently.
“Good, Angelica,” Lin Xian remarked with a light laugh, gazing at the moon in the sky.
“See you in Princeton,” he concluded.
