Chapter 118 Death

The white light arrived on time at 00:42, drowning everything.

Just like that time, it submerged history.

……

……

……

Lin Xian opened his eyes as he inhaled the unpleasant smell of furniture into his nose.

Looking at the unfamiliar surroundings.

He was still a little uncomfortable with the suddenness.

He sat up, opened the curtains, and looked at the moon outside that was approaching a round disk...

Among the tens of thousands of soaked books, there was not a single history book. Lin Xian felt that this was not a normal thing.

Are history books strictly controlled and cannot be circulated on the market?
Or……

History itself is controlled, preventing people from knowing what happened in the past?
But what’s the point of doing this?

Lin Xian scratched his flattened hair, a little confused.

"History itself is a fact that has already happened. At most, it can serve as an education, warning, and understanding tool."

“History itself is not useful knowledge. At least compared to engineering, physics, and engineering, history is a discipline with no productivity and no destructive power.”

"Because it's completely set in stone and it won't change."

Inexplicable.

Lin Xian remembered what Zhao Yingjun once said -

“History will never change.”

……

For an instant.

It was as if a cool breeze blew into the closed room, flowing in through Lin Xian's trouser legs and up to his entire body.

in case……

Will history change?
Lin Xian took back what he had just said.

If we consider it from the perspective of time, from the perspective of the laws of time and space...

History is not without any destructive power.

Or even quite the opposite!

[For those who have the ability to change history...history is the most powerful weapon of time and space! ]

"like me."

Lin Xian seemed to have noticed something.

If he could be given a sufficiently accurate and detailed history book, which clearly recorded the time, place and impact of each historical event on later generations... perhaps he could really change the future into what he wanted.

Although this is just speculation.

But even if the direction of the butterfly effect of space-time can be slightly controlled, it is still a very terrifying power.

such as.

Suppose Lin Xian doesn’t like the future world in the second dream, and doesn’t like this new city surrounded by high walls.

Then perhaps he could find out in detailed history books which scourge came up with the concept of this new city and why.

Then follow the clues to find out who this guy's ancestors were, and who his grandfather's grandfather's grandfather was...

Go back to 2023 to see which man and which woman fell in love and eventually gave birth to this scourge hundreds of years later.

As long as we can find the source, everything will be simple.

Trying every possible means to break up the relationship between the two and prevent them from getting married, isn't that equivalent to easily destroying all the steel cities 600 years later?

Lin Xian knew that his idea was exaggerated and extreme, and difficult to achieve.

But just because it’s difficult to achieve doesn’t mean it’s impossible to achieve.

Moreover, this is just the most intuitive example. In fact, if there is a detailed historical description, we can really do a lot of things.

"Could it be... that it is to prevent someone from tampering with or changing history... that is why the future world controls history and makes it so discontinuous?"

……

Lin Xian felt that this idea was very subtle.

Not sure if this is possible.

But he firmly believes that history itself is made up of human beings themselves.

No matter how much control or blockade there is, the true history will still be preserved.

Even if it is broken and messy... there must be traces of history somewhere in the world.

It’s just like in the first dream.

Even if all the history is vague and no information from distant times can be found...but hasn't the list of champions of every World Cup been passed down?
Although there is no specific score, no specific details...

But that's history.

This is the clue of history.

"It is also possible that there are too few samples of water-soaked books, or the water leakage just happened to avoid the historical book area."

Lin Xian felt it was too early to draw conclusions.

If we want to know for sure whether there are history books in Xindonghai City, we still have to wait until we can infiltrate it and conduct a thorough investigation before we can make a decision.

I have been sleeping since around 5pm till now. I feel completely upside down and not very sleepy.

Lin Xian went downstairs directly.

leave the company.

After having a midnight snack, I went home to take a shower and then went back to sleep for a nap.

……

night.

In a relatively upscale western restaurant.

The soft classical music is soothing and long.

The waiters shuttled around the restaurant, serving sumptuous food to every diner.

There were a lot of people in the restaurant, but it was very quiet. No one was making loud noises; everyone was talking in low voices and chatting in whispers.

“Good taste.”

Zhao Yingjun was dressed exquisitely, with her enameled green earrings reflected in the warm yellow light, like a sparrow flying by in the sunset, with a unique sense of maturity.

She took off her dark green coat, revealing a black turtleneck sweater underneath. She sat opposite Lin Xian and looked at the attire and atmosphere in the restaurant:
"I've heard of this restaurant before. It's very close to where I live, but this is my first time here."

"The caviar here is good." Lin Xian followed her gaze and looked at the classical decoration of the restaurant:
"It's my first time here too."

In the past, Lin Xian would definitely not come to this kind of restaurant to eat.

The main reason was not that it was expensive, but that he couldn't taste how delicious the food here was...

Although it is indeed expensive, but I really can't get used to it.

However, most people who come to such places don't come for the purpose of eating, but mostly to discuss business.

Several appetizers were brought up by the waiters in order and the empty plates were removed promptly.

Lin Xian and Zhao Yingjun were talking and laughing, discussing the dishes, the taste, and the red wine.

Zhao Yingjun is indeed very knowledgeable.

This may have something to do with her background.

But she's also polite and smart.

She never delved into areas that Lin Xian did not understand, such as wineries, red wine years, the origins of ingredients, and the methods of making authentic Western cuisine.

She would just briefly touch upon any topic that Lin Xian was not familiar with, and then move on to areas that Lin Xian was familiar with.

Such as art.

Like movies.

For example, college life.

She is indeed very smart.

Lin Xian could feel that she was catering to him in the conversation, and it was very comfortable and natural to chat with her.

Perhaps Zhao Yingjun herself did not do this on purpose, but her long-standing upbringing made her prefer listening rather than speaking.

This is actually quite rare...

In daily life, many people like to let others listen to them, but few are willing to calm down and listen to others.

"Actually, when I heard you say you wanted to leave MX, I was still very sad."

After the snacks came, Zhao Yingjun used a white handkerchief to wipe the wine stains at the corners of his mouth and looked at Lin Xian:

"I'm still quite surprised by what you said yesterday. Because in my opinion... at least before, I always thought you were not such a motivated person."

"But it is undeniable that you have changed a lot in recent times, and you have become more positive in various things. I am very happy for you. If a person can find his or her own goals and find something he or she is willing to work hard for, it is actually a very happy thing."

"I mainly want to train myself and make my life more meaningful." Lin Xian put down the red wine glass, wiped his hands, and began to establish his own personality:
"Although I can live comfortably for the rest of my life by living off copyright income and sales commissions, my thoughts are different when I have money and when I have no money...Now that I have money, I have more ideas. I also want to be like you and build my own business in the future."

Lin Xian tried hard to establish a personality similar to Zhao Yingjun, hoping to gain her trust, affirmation and appreciation.

If I can make her think that I am someone who wants to improve, make progress, and learn, maybe she will really consider letting me be her secretary in the future...

In that case, he would have enough opportunities to look at the invitation letter from the Genius Club, and investigate any clues about the Genius Club by observing Zhao Yingjun's itinerary.

"But I know myself well. I know that I am not capable of starting my own business yet. So in the short term, I have no plans to leave MX."

Lin Xian said naturally:

“I feel that I can really learn a lot of business thinking and experience from you, and it has benefited me a lot.”

"I also hope that you can give me more guidance in the future, in all aspects. I think I still have a lot to learn."

"so……"

Lin Xian raised his red wine glass with a smile and looked at Zhao Yingjun:
"I'm not good at talking, so my words may be a bit confusing. Anyway, I'm very lucky to be able to work at MX Company after graduation and to meet a boss like you."

Zhao Yingjun also smiled and raised his glass in response:

"It is my luck to have a subordinate like you."

They each took a sip, put down their goblets, and began to chat about the company, Rhine Cat, Xu Yun, Xu Yiyi, and other things...

Lin Xian learned that Zhao Yingjun had originally planned to meet with an animation MV director tonight to discuss making a MV for Rhine Cat.

But for Lin Xian's dinner, she turned it down.

Her daily schedule is really tight. Yesterday she met with the composer, today she was supposed to meet with the director, and tomorrow according to her schedule, she will also meet with a female singer to talk about singing the Rhine Cats theme song...

He couldn't stand such a busy life. It was very different from the life of a domineering president he had imagined.

"Actually, lying down is pretty good." Lin Xian thought to himself but naturally wouldn't say it out loud.

On the surface, he is a man who wants to be the Tiger of MX.

Always put progress first.

……

After dinner, Zhao Yingjun asked Lin Xian to get into the business car with him, wanting the driver to take Lin Xian home first.

But Lin Xian refused, saying that he had an appointment with friends here and asked Zhao Yingjun to go home directly.

He specially chose a western restaurant that was very close to Zhao Yingjun's home...

The purpose is for safety reasons and to prevent her from running around.

It's always a good idea to err on the side of caution.

"Then I'll leave first."

After the white-glove driver closed the door for Zhao Yingjun, she rolled down the window and looked at Lin Xian with a smile:

"Thank you for the dinner. The caviar is indeed good."

"Goodbye."

Lin Xian waved goodbye to her.

boom…………

The huge business car started and drove Zhao Yingjun to her residence.

It was only five minutes away from her residence.

Lin Xian raised his wrist and looked at his watch. It was just a little after 9 o'clock and it was still a long time before midnight.

"Tonight, there will probably be no problem."

……

the next day.

After getting up, the first thing Lin Xian did was to pick up his phone and search for news.

I searched all kinds of keywords, such as Donghai and shooting, and read all kinds of news...

"No."

There is not a single relevant case.

In Longguo, the probability of a shooting is very small and the nature of the shooting is very serious. If a shooting really happens in Donghai City, it will definitely be reported.

this means.

Last night, the shooting incident that caused Zhao Yingjun to be accidentally involved and killed did not happen.

That means...

Lin Xian locked his phone and looked at the date on the bedside clock.

2023 1 Month 14 Day.

"tonight……"

"That's the date of Zhao Yingjun's death."
