Chapter 29 Er Zhu Zi!

"Er Zhu Zi!!"

With Da Lian Mao's (Big Cat) face flushed as he summoned.

Er Zhu Zi took flight, leaping to the top of the human ladder, forming the final link in the human pillar.

Art.

This was true human art.

Even though this was the third time Lin Xian had seen this shocking performance, he couldn't help but admire the wisdom and unity of the "face gang."

This kind of tacit cooperation was something that ordinary teams couldn't achieve.

"Ningning, jump first!"

As Da Lian Mao's words fell, Li Ningning next to Lin Xian adjusted her mask and accelerated forward from a standing start!

She leaped nimbly like a cat, using a form of external martial arts that Lin Xian couldn't understand to scale the eight-meter-high wall.

This wall...truly was a stage for the common people to display their unique talents.

Perhaps because of her young age and light weight, Li Ningning was much more agile than CC and himself.

He relied on momentum and brute force to climb the wall. Skill was secondary; it was all about grabbing cracks in the bricks and making miracles happen with sheer strength.

CC mainly relied on skill.

Lin Xian couldn't understand Li Ningning's movements, it was pure talent, the advantage of youth.

"Lin Xian! Hurry up and climb!!" Da Lian Mao's face was flushed, bearing the weight of two or three people above him, his pressure was immense.

Lin Xian still used brute force to accelerate, jumping and using the brick wall to climb over.

"Lin Xian, this way."

Li Ningning had already found cover and beckoned Lin Xian to come quickly.

After hiding, Lin Xian looked at his watch:

23:47

Good, this infiltration was much earlier than before.

But it wasn't yet time for the security guard's shift change, so they still couldn't go out and act. They had to wait for the shift change gap between 00:00 and 00:20.

But Da Lian Mao had also said that the blind spot in the surveillance during the escape was within 30 seconds after 00:19.

So...the time left for Li Ningning and Lin Xian to rummage through the trash was only 19 minutes.

Lin Xian didn't care, but Li Ningning had to leave at 00:19.

Because at 00:20, the new security guard would come to the garbage plant to work. If he found them, it would be over. He would immediately sound the alarm, and no one could escape.

Therefore.

They still had to wait, waiting for the current security guard to go change shifts.

"Lin Xian, look over there! There really are a lot of books! Great!"

Li Ningning's voice was very excited.

In her opinion, the value of those books was no different from gold!

She grabbed Lin Xian's arm with her small hand and tugged him towards that direction. Lin Xian, enveloped in the fragrance of roses, leaned close to Li Ningning and looked in the direction she was pointing—

Sure enough.

There were four piles of books.

Countless books, large and small, colorful, he didn't know how many there were.

At this distance, he couldn't see any signs of water damage. He could only see a colorful, white expanse, with a total number of at least tens of thousands of books.

CC's information was correct.

At 23:19, four large garbage trucks had transported these water-soaked books here and unloaded them in four areas.

There was still a lot of garbage in this waste treatment plant. Various robots and automated machines were busy sorting, transporting, and incinerating the garbage, and had not yet processed the four piles of water-soaked books.

In 12 minutes, the security guard would go to headquarters to change shifts.

All the robots and automated machines here were blind, so he and Li Ningning could freely rummage through the piles of books.

"Ningning, I need to trouble you with something."

Lin Xian looked at Li Ningning wearing an Ultraman mask:

"There are two books that are very important to me. When you're flipping through the piles of books, if you can find them, please call me and throw the book to me."

"Okay, what books?"

"One is *Introduction to the Cosmological Constant*, that's the name of the book. If you see a book with the four characters *Cosmological Constant* on it, just throw it to me or call me."

Li Ningning nodded, remembering it:

"What about the other one?"

"The other one doesn't necessarily have to be a specific book, as long as it's an introduction to X Company, its history, a biography of the CEO... anyway, as long as you see any books or magazines related to X Company, just call me, better safe than sorry."

"Okay."

Li Ningning nodded very efficiently.

Clearly, ever since seeing those four piles of book that were like gold... Lin Xian's image in Li Ningning's mind seemed to have instantly grown taller.

Finally...

The two of them patiently waited until 00:00.

They saw the security guard in the monitoring room stretch, get up, and walk towards the sealed passage on the side of the high steel wall.

After he seemed to identify himself, the passage door opened. After he went in, the passage door automatically closed.

"Okay, it's safe, let's go, Lin Xian."

Li Ningning quickly stood up and ran away with the fragrance of roses.

Lin Xian also followed closely, brushing past countless blind robots, running to one of the book piles, and starting to rummage wildly.

Textbooks, magazines, picture books, cookbooks, maps, encyclopedias...

Everything!

Lin Xian had never felt that being surrounded by books could be such a happy thing.

Although these books were all water-soaked, most of them were actually close to intact, with only a small amount of water stains.

Of course, these books could definitely not be sold as new.

Either they would be sold to second-hand dealers for processing, or they would be treated as waste and disposed of directly, as the insurance company would cover it anyway.

"I'm leaving first, Lin Xian, you hurry up too! Don't be so picky!"

Li Ningning was very efficient. She had already picked out a stack of books, and then she ran all the way to the wall she had climbed over.

She put the books on the ground.

Then, after observing the position of the drone, she threw them one by one over the wall, and then quickly returned to continue searching:

"Lin Xian, a lot of textbooks and popular science books are fine! Don't be so picky."

Li Ningning ran over and told Lin Xian, then continued to rummage through her pile of books.

Lin Xian didn't take her words to heart...

His purpose in coming here was to find *Introduction to the Cosmological Constant* and books related to X Company, his purpose was very clear.

Li Ningning was carrying books like a diligent little bee, but it was actually useless.

At 00:42, the white light would destroy everything and the cycle would start again. What Li Ningning and Da Lian Mao were doing was meaningless.

But Lin Xian wasn't selfish enough to let Li Ningning focus on finding books for him...

Just let each do their own thing.

He flipped through the piles of books very quickly.

He only needed to scan with his eyes to know if it was the book he was looking for.

But even so...

Finding the target two books in this pile of books was still no different from finding a needle in a haystack.

"Lin Xian! I found it!"

Li Ningning shouted, and Lin Xian stood up quickly:

"Which one did you find?"

"*My Life with X*, it seems to be an autobiography, do you want to take a look?"

"Throw it over!"

Whoosh...

Thud.

A small blue book was thrown over by Li Ningning, back facing up, lying next to the garbage pile on Lin Xian's side...

Lin Xian's heart beat faster.

If it was an autobiography, then the front of the book was likely to have a photo of the author himself!

Would it be Zhao Yingjun?

He raised his head and glanced at the round moon covered by the black hand shadow in the sky. The huge black hand stretched out its index finger, pointing straight at the dark universe above.

Lin Xian grabbed the spine of the book and flipped it over directly—

—

Bald head.

White person.

Black suit.

Man.

In the conspicuous position in the middle of the book cover, the large bold font read X Company CEO.

"Hoo..."

Seeing this unfamiliar man, Lin Xian felt a sense of relief for some reason.

He opened the cover of the book.

On the inner page was a description of the author of this autobiography.

He had been the CEO of X Company since 2617, and was rated as xxx...a bunch of titles.

Lin Xian didn't pay much attention to it.

Anyway, the information on this book was enough to prove that the president of X Company 600 years later was not Zhao Yingjun.

For some reason, Lin Xian felt a little relieved.

Perhaps subconsciously, he still didn't want Zhao Yingjun to be a bad person, nor did he want to see a 600-year-old acquaintance in the world 600 years later. He thought it was a terrifying thing.

On the contrary, he didn't find it terrifying that CC and Chu Anqing looked the same.

Because these two people, apart from looking the same... had almost no other similarities. In fact, as long as you chatted for a few words, there was no way to regard them as the same person.

The difference between them was too great!

Statically, it did look like copy and paste.

But once they moved and opened their mouths to speak, you could instantly feel the difference between the two. This was really a very strange feeling.

"Hmm..."

Lin Xian looked at the bald man on the cover and thought.

Could it be...

Had he really misunderstood Zhao Yingjun, misunderstood the Genius Club?

In fact, he still believed in his mind that the Genius Club was a villainous organization.

Although there was no decisive evidence.

But would a righteous organization put its logo on the moon?

That was obviously too crazy, too un-"righteous."

However, in the end, this was just Lin Xian's subjective judgment. The facts were unclear, and he couldn't jump to conclusions.

According to his previous understanding.

The black hand shadow on the moon must have been done by the Genius Club,

And X Company's president Zhao Yingjun received an invitation 600 years ago,

Then New Donghai City should have been built by X Company, which was controlled by the Genius Club,

Da Lian Mao's father, who calculated the cosmological constant, was also captured in New Donghai City,

In the first dream, Da Lian Mao found out that his father's death was related to the Genius Club,

With all kinds of clues overlapping...

In fact, it could be deduced very directly that the essence of X Company was controlled by the Genius Club, which then built New Donghai City, a giant sci-fi city.

But thinking about it now.

It seemed that this reasoning was not rigorous.

In fact, there was still no evidence to support it, it was all Lin Xian's imagination.

"Anyway, as far as I can see, the X Company 600 years later should have nothing to do with Zhao Yingjun."

"However, the construction of a giant sci-fi city like New Donghai City cannot be built in a year or two. During this period, X Company must have undergone several changes of leadership and reorganization."

"So... when did Zhao Yingjun lose control of the company? Or rather, how long did Zhao Yingjun's control of X Company last?"

With curiosity, Lin Xian opened the book.

*My Life with X*

The foreword was all nonsense.

At least it was all nonsense to Lin Xian.

He didn't care how this white bald man made X Company bigger and stronger, he just wanted to know about the history of X Company.

Flip, flip.

Finally...

Flipping all the way to the last chapter, this bald man finally deigned to free himself from self-admiration and self-intoxication, and began to recall the past, telling some of X Company's principles and the story of its early establishment.

Soon, Lin Xian found the key point.

The book said:

X Company was founded in 2020, and Ms. Zhao Yingjun started from scratch in Donghai City alone, and the giant X Company was born.

Under the wise leadership of Ms. Zhao Yingjun, X Company quickly became the leader in the domestic cosmetics field and gradually emerged in the international field. However, Heaven is jealous of talent—"

This page ended here.

Lin Xian quickly turned to the next page.

What's going on?

Why was Heaven jealous of talent?

Flipping to the next page.

The first sentence made Lin Xian feel like he had been struck by lightning:

"—Just as the company was taking off, Ms. Zhao Yingjun died unexpectedly in a shooting, her life was cut short at midnight, at the age of 23.

Subsequently, X Company was officially taken over by the Zhao Group in the capital and underwent large-scale personnel adjustments and business integration. Since then, X Company has embarked on a new journey!"
