Chapter 4 Countdown (Additional Chapter for Leader Yang Yanxing)

Gallop.

Lin Xian groaned inwardly, thinking of Gawain and the manuscript in his book drawer. Old Copernicus is really a haunting ghost, dead but not stiff. He didn't ask questions for more than 20 years, but when he asked, he would come to see me. He didn't attend a meeting for four or five years, but when he attended, he would cause trouble for me. However, from another perspective, this may also mean that Copernicus, who is currently in 2024, doesn't know much about me. He had suspected before that after the real and fake Yu Xi traveled to 2024, they might have a contact in this era, and then a series of information exchanges would be carried out. But at present, this speculation is probably not broken. Copernicus really knows very little about the field of time and space travel, and no one has told him any specific habitat. Next, it depends on how Einstein answers him. Lin Xian stared at the old man on the high chair. He was still sitting there with his head held high. After thinking for dozens of seconds, he slowly said, "In the given history and future trajectory, there is more than one person who studies the theory of time travel. You can find any one of them." "So, please specify your question. Which one do you want to find?"

Copernicus laughed twice, and seemed very satisfied with the obvious answer. Of course, it is the one who is closest to me in time and distance. My old bones can be faster, and of course it is better to be faster. "

The old man Xianglou, who was looking at the Einstein mask, chuckled inexplicably, "It's a pity, Copernicus. Or, this is your real purpose. In short, facing your specific question, my answer is a refusal to answer, and the opportunity to ask questions is invalid. "

?

For a moment, the geniuses present looked at each other. They were all smart people. They understood what happened in an instant. Because of the existence of the "Three Principles of Questioning", there are only two situations that will make Einstein refuse to answer questions. One is about the Genius Club itself. The other is about the privacy, actions, plans, and identities of other members of the Genius Club. Obviously, the reason why Einstein refused to answer was not the first situation. Because if it was the first situation, he would directly refuse at the beginning, instead of continuing to ask Copernicus to make the question specific. So, it goes without saying that the truth is that the answer to the second question involves the privacy of other members of the Genius Club! Therefore, it was refused to answer! Lin Xian also looked at everyone's eyes. He looked at Gauss on the left and Newton on the right. He pretended to be suspicious and surprised. "Haha, haha, as expected, Copernicus laughed calmly, and then said lightly, "I see." It seems that among all of you, there is a great talent who has taken the lead than me. Who could it be?

He wore a mask and glanced at Newton, Da Vinci, Lin Xian, then turned his head and looked at Gauss and Galileo.

"Interesting."

He smiled and spread his hands. To be honest, I really don't mind which great talent has such great ability to quickly build a time-space shuttle so that I can ride on it. Xia Qicheng, even if it's just borrowed for convenience. "The thin Gauss swallowed his saliva several times. He said timidly, "Is it Newton? How did you study it?" "Yes, it's me."

The old naughty boy Newton interrupted Gauss seriously, "I asked Einstein a similar question before, but it was not so specific, but it was enough for me to find clues similar to time-space shuttle.

"So... Copernicus, you can forget about it. As long as I live, you will never touch this thing. "

"As you said, you are old, so you should take a good rest, enter the hibernation chamber as soon as possible, find a future hundreds of years later to wake up, and use the future science and medicine to prolong your life for a few more years. That is the best way for you to return. "Or... have you realized your mistake and regretted it now? Do you want to go back to the past and slam your young self's feet to tell him not to kill innocent scientists again?

Da Vinci laughed loudly. Of course, she could hear that it was Newton who was eliminating Copernicus. She was also an early member of the Genius Club. She knew that Newton and Copernicus had different opinions on the degree, direction, and level of scientific development. They were almost incompatible. But fortunately, during the long time they met in the last century, they still maintained good gentlemanly manners and bottom line. , the real fight did not happen after the meeting. It was just that the relationship, which was not good to begin with, became worse and worse with Copernicus's increasingly aggressive behavior in recent years. However, in terms of attitude towards scientists, she clearly stood on Newton's side. So she smiled and said, Copernicus, you are really a person who is jealous. You enjoy the dividends of technological development, receive the best medical care, sleep in the hibernation cabin to prolong your life, and at the same time dream of time-space shuttles, while you attack outstanding scientists and let them die. "Isn't this behavior too hypocritical and selfish? If it weren't for the development of medical level and hibernation technology in recent years, we might not have seen you a long time ago. Even so... do you still want to stick to your future plan that is abhorrent to both humans and gods?

After hearing this, Copernicus didn't care. He coughed twice and smiled and said, if... all this is worth it, Miss Da Vinci. "

Too gentle means cannot overcome human nature. Just as your so-called role model cannot conquer me, you cannot conquer other people in this world either." The reason why I don't like to come to the party is because you are too short-sighted, but there are some reasons that are not your fault. You joined too late, and there are many problems that you don't understand or realize. "

"It's just that I don't need to explain to you. Time will naturally give the correct answer. Then, my question ends here. It's your turn, my old friend Newton." Newton snorted. After a sigh, he had no intention of continuing to argue with Copernicus. perhaps. He was really anxious to take his grandkids to the playground.

"I have no questions to ask."

he said softly. Lin Xian sighed softly in his heart. As the last person to join the genius club, of course he expected everyone to ask some valuable questions and share some valuable answers for him to collect information. But now. The geniuses in front of them have obviously been members of the Genius Club for decades. They meet twelve times a year and are given opportunities to join the club twelve times a year. Over the past few decades, they can ask hundreds of questions. The things they wanted to ask have really been asked a long time ago, and the foundation and foundation have been laid. Now all future plans are running steadily. perhaps. In comparison, members who joined later were far behind in terms of intelligence and progress. Next, it was the turn of No. 4 Galileo, a serious middle-aged man, to ask, "When will the next revolutionary discovery in astronomy or a disruptive breakthrough be made?"

Einstein without thinking March 27, 2077. "

Huh... Galileo took a deep breath. It was too far away. It seemed that it was impossible not to sleep in the hibernation cabin.

Lin Xian narrowed his eyes. This question should be considered a perfect question. Presumably no one but Galileo himself understood what the answer meant. Lin Xian couldn't understand even the listening questions, let alone the meaning of the answers. Then, it was No. 5. Miss Da Vinci asked "I have no questions to ask."

Lin Xian was a little disappointed. Sure enough, these old members are very clear about their goals and plans, and how they want to achieve their goals. Their ideas are very clear. Continue like this. As long as they don't ask questions, Lin Xian may never understand their future plans and action goals. This move is indeed insidious. They don't need to ask any more questions, they can just keep listening to the answers from latecomers like Lin Xian, who are completely risk-free Bai. He is the ninth member, Jask and Tu Yuan are the seventh and eighth respectively. No wonder their identities are known to everyone. presumably. While these old Yin coins were silent and did not ask questions, as new members, the two of them would definitely ask non-stop at every gathering. The more questions you ask, the more personal information will be revealed, and the easier it will be to be targeted by the enemy. This is really a difficult balance to weigh. Then, it was time for No. 6 Gauss to ask questions. Lin Xian prayed in his heart that this snail should hurry up and ask some valuable questions so that he can gain some information. At present, in this question session, I have gained nothing at all, and it is very likely that I will also give you gold coins for the former players in a while. Whether you can gain anything or not depends entirely on Gauss, the snail. Come on, Lin Xian silently encouraged him. Finally, Lin Xian was not disappointed. The thin Gauss said slowly, "If we want to strengthen human beings in terms of physical strength, neural response, and brain activity, in 2024, where should we start our research?"

"It can't be researched in any direction." Einstein shook his head. There is still a key genetic technology that has not made a breakthrough. It will have to wait until around 2100 before human body enhancement and real gene editing technology can start to take off. "

Lin Xian stared at Einstein silently. Because Newton and Da Vinci abstained, and Copernicus' question was invalid. Therefore, Einstein actually only answered two questions, and these two questions are all without proof. He first said that in 2077, there will be a major breakthrough in the field of astronomy: Wen told Gauss that around 2100, humans will really start human body enhancement and gene editing technology. It sounds like he is very powerful, omniscient and omnipotent. but. It’s no different from those fortune-telling scammers! All that is said is that some bad checks that cannot be cashed within a short period of time cannot be verified or verified. To be honest, Lin Xian still didn't believe that Einstein had the ability to see into the future every second. so. He needed to verify that he had three purposes for joining the Talent Club this time: 1. To find out the truth about Qian Nianzhuang and get Chu Anqing back. This purpose and driving force is at the top of the list, and it is also the most fundamental reason why Lin Xian chose to join the Genius Club. But before we can figure out the answer to this question, we must first find a way to prove that Einstein is not a charlatan. Otherwise, Einstein would have painted a big picture for himself, saying that he would have to sleep in a hibernation cabin and then wake up 200 years later to get the answer. I can't be so stupid as to hibernate for two hundred years, right? If Chu Anqing could really be saved by this, Lin Xian would bear it. What he was afraid of was that when he finally woke up after hibernating for 200 years, he would find that it was a bad check, a piece of cake that could not be eaten, and it was all because of love. It would be really hard for Stan to have a monkey. Then, there is Lin Xian's second purpose of joining the Genius Club 2, to find out the answers to many mysteries such as the dream world, 00, 42-minute white light, and the cosmological constant. same.

Now, we don’t know whether Einstein really had the ability to see the future, or whether he was trying to deceive others. There is no way to ask these questions. If asking rashly would only expose the secrets of his dream and the secrets that could peek into the future world, Lin Xian was not that stupid. Finally, the third purpose of joining the club is to fulfill the promise to Angelica and take revenge with her. At present, it seems that the murderer of Ji Lin's parents is 80% Copernicus. If that were the case, everyone would be happy. Not only did Angelica have a grudge against Copernicus, but she also had a grudge against her. It was simply a sworn feud. First, in the fourth dream, Gorzini sent people to surround him with stun guns, and then he sent the time and space assassin Lin Yuxi to assassinate him. Now looking back on it, it's really We need to discuss the sinister intentions of this old guy. Did he deliberately send Daolin Yuxi back through time to kill him? Deliberately letting his brainwashed biological daughter behead him? What a vile and disgusting behavior! From the first moment Lin Xian saw Copernicus, he had already listed him as his number one enemy. Moreover, it is not just that Xu Yun's hatred and Tang Xin's hatred will ultimately be blamed on Copernicus. It is not difficult to deduce from Ji Xinshui's confession and the remarks made by the members of the Genius Club just now. The deaths of Dr. Xu Yun, Tang Xin, and Pang Simai were basically caused by Copernicus. Therefore, when Ji Xinshui killed these people, he didn't need to find any evidence or prove anything. He just killed them without thinking. The reason why it was so troublesome to kill him and to search for all kinds of evidence of troubled history was that Copernicus did not instruct him to kill him. It was entirely because Ji Xinshui wanted to put on a show. The whole life proved his ability.

In short, all kinds of hatred accumulated. As long as Lin Zheng seizes the opportunity, he will definitely shoot the bullet into Copernicus' head without hesitation, just as he did when he killed Kevin Walker and Turing. Faced with a bad criminal like Copernicus, there is no need to think about respecting the old and loving the young, just kill him. However, at present, Lin Xian is still waiting for two things. First, in order to clarify whether Ji Lin's parents were killed by Copernicus, this remains to be verified. The second is that I currently don’t know Copernicus’ true identity and address. Before I find a way to find out, I must first keep a low profile and not attract too much attention from Copernicus. At this time. Einstein, as well as several other geniuses present, all fixed their eyes on Lin Xian's face. The magical Rhine cat mask "No. 9, Rhine."

Einstein's hoarse and majestic voice said, "Have you thought about what questions you want to ask me?"

Under the eyes of everyone. Lin Xian. nodded. Indeed, he had thought about it. This was the result of his comprehensive consideration. As the first question after joining the Talent Club, Lin Xian did not intend to leak personal information, nor did he intend to leak personal information. But as an insurance period, he wanted to verify whether Einstein could really predict the future or whether he was just bluffing. For others, it may be a difficult question to verify accurately. But Lin Xian was different. He can truly see the future 600 years in the future. As long as you know the exact answer to one thing, fish for law enforcement, and deliberately ask Einstein. You can know the details of Einstein at a glance. not to mention. This month, he was eager to join the Talent Club just to see if there was any swordsmanship in the organization that could help him survive the beheading crisis on July 7. Originally, Lin Xian was a little embarrassed about how to ask about this matter. No. Now. A great opportunity has arrived. Only one question is needed to verify whether Einstein is talking, and it can also help me better understand the truth of July 7, and find targeted countermeasures to avoid this disaster. It really kills two birds with one stone. . So. He put on a funny green cat mask, slowly raised his head, and looked at Einstein. "I want to confirm again whether all questions except the three principles can be answered accurately, and the answer can be Detailed to every detail, even every minute and every second. "Yes."

Einstein nodded without thinking, "As long as your question is specific enough, my answer will naturally be specific enough."

"good."

Lin Xian nodded.

Now that everything is ready and confirmed, you can start asking questions.

"My question is. The Rhine Cat mask, with an expressionless expression on the face of the six assassins, told the exact date, time, and minutes of my death, as well as the specific place and method of death. "

"hehe."

After listening to Lin Xian's question, Einstein laughed hoarsely and shook his head.

Lai Yin, to be precise, this is not one question, but three questions. But it doesn't matter, this can generally be regarded as a question or "how did I die, but your description is more specific."

Very good, this means that we have figured out the specific rules for asking questions at gatherings. I am very pleased that every member can integrate into the environment so quickly. "Then, I will tell you the answer according to your question.

Einstein picked up his head and seemed to be meditating, "No. 9, Cai Yin." "The way you died was to cut off your neck with a knife and die instantly."

"The place of your death was in the living room of your home, in front of the entrance door."

His tone became heavy as for the specific time of your death, there are still 17 minutes and 21 seconds left before you die with your head in a different place. "
