Genius Club-Chapter 1139 - 28 Closing In (Added for alliance leader 6+545456!)_3
Lin Xian put down the signature pen in his hand.
He leaned back.
Resting in his executive chair, he heaved a sigh:
"I really didn’t expect it. It was her, the person Jask trusted the most." freewebnøvel.coɱ
"But it makes sense. If it weren’t for the closest and most trusted person, it wouldn’t be so easy to kill Jask, after all, Jask is no fool."
"So, the current situation is that Jask is playing the role of Fake Sike, and you, are playing his female secretary."
He chuckled:
"Don’t forget to push up your glasses this time."
Angelica snorted coldly:
"You and Jask really have this annoying trait in common, always taking pleasure in exposing people’s scars."
"Actually, the reason we managed to slip by so easily is another key factor, that is Copernicus is just too cautious. He never seeks us out in reality, and even when passing messages, it’s all done through encrypted channels."
"This leads to our limited understanding of him, and his limited interference with us; thus, we’ve been able to stay so well hidden... because Copernicus never comes to meet us. It can only be said that his caution and carefulness are a double-edged sword; while protecting himself, he also failed to see through our disguise."
Lin Xian nodded:
"That’s Copernicus’s style, but since you came to me today, does it mean you have good news for me? For instance... someone has taken the bait I set during the Genius Club meeting?"
"Correct."
Angelica smiled slightly:
"In fact, on August 1st, the day after your meeting ended, Jask and I have been looking for an opportunity to communicate with you about intelligence, but we never got the chance, so it has been delayed until today."
"After the Genius Club gathering ended, Copernicus contacted me, asking me to activate the devices left by Jask to verify if space-time particles were approaching Earth from outer space."
"After I told this to Jask... Jask is smart, he instantly guessed that you must have misled Copernicus at the Genius Club gathering."
"And from Copernicus’s request, it can be seen that actually, he does not know much about the properties of space-time particles, much less than you and Jask. According to Jask’s detector... there are currently only two space-time particles detectable on Earth."
"Both of these are in Donghai City, obviously both in your hands. Besides these, there is no third space-time particle on Earth at this time."
"So, right now, the only members of the Genius Club who understand the properties of space-time particles and have the equipment to detect them are you and Jask. Your research on space-time particles is far ahead of the other members."
"Jask told me that the reason other members know about space-time particles is mostly from Jask’s own inquiries and Einstein’s responses, which are just superficial. This exclusive intelligence... is our biggest advantage now!"
...
Lin Xian had Angelica sit on the sofa and poured her a cup of tea, which he placed on the coffee table:
"Wait a minute, you’re saying, Jask’s detector, it can detect all the space-time particles on Earth? Are you certain there are only these two?"
Angelica nodded:
"This is also one of the messages Jask asked me to convey to you, the detectability of space-time particles, he wants you to remember it clearly—"
"With energy and activity, they can be detected by devices."
"Without energy but with activity, they cannot be detected by devices."
"With energy but no activity, they cannot be detected by devices."
"Without energy and without activity, they can be detected by devices."
Lin Xian mulled over this mnemonic:
"No wonder, when I was capturing the space-time particles, my scientists could only detect the one in outer space with the Guizhou Sky Eye, but not the one in Jask’s possession. It turns out that if activity and energy are not both present, the detector becomes ineffective."
Quite magical.
If the space-time particles both have energy and activity, or neither have energy nor activity, they can be detected by specialized equipment.
But only when energy and activity are not both present or both absent, do they become undetectable.
At first.
Liu Feng searched for space-time particles with the Guizhou Sky Eye for several months and failed to detect the one in Jask’s mini-fridge.
It was because the one in the mini-fridge had energy, but no activity, hence it was missed in plain sight.
During the capture process, it became undetectable after losing its energy, despite still having activity.
In the end, Chu Anqing used a space-time particle capturer, which is a rice cooker to capture the space-time particles and then deprived them of their activity, so they became detectable again.
"So, you see."
After clarifying his thoughts, Lin Xian looked at Angelica:
"So, originally Jask was able to detect the two energy-less, inactive space-time particles in Donghai City, and he also knew that these two space-time particles were in my hands."
"But later on, one of them became undetectable, and Jask was clear that the particular one regained its energy."
"No."
Angelica shook her head:
"Lin Xian, not one, but both."
She was somewhat puzzled:
"Didn’t you observe the other space-time particle? Jask thought you must know about this…The two space-time particles you have, became undetectable early morning on July 1st, so, both of the space-time particles should have regained their activity."
Lin Xian was a bit confused.
"Wait a moment, let me think."
He closed his eyes.
Indeed, he never observed the space-time particle in the safe deposit box of Tem Bank.
He originally thought that the night Lin Yuxi transformed into the blue snow enveloping Donghai City, it was just to energize the entangled state of space-time particle.
But unexpectedly, that blue snow charged all the space-time particles in Donghai City.
What was the principle behind it?
The space-time particle he placed in the Tem Bank safe deposit should have nothing to do with Lin Yuxi at all.
Could it be...
[The special factor, was that blue snow? Making everything from the different space-time dimensions, return to their original state?]
Lin Xian nodded his head.
It was very likely.
But now, it was clearly not the time to analyze this matter; he should ask Angelica to clarify the current situation:
"I don’t know the principle either, but according to what you said, the only two space-time particles on Earth have both become undetectable... This is good news, it means these things are much safer and better hidden."
"I was also surprised that these two space-time particles suddenly regained activity. I was thinking about what to do with them, but now that Jask has confirmed that the instruments can’t detect them, I’m actually relieved."
"Let’s not talk about this for now. Angelica, continue with what you were saying before. How did Jask mislead Copernicus?"
Angelica picked up the teacup from the coffee table, took a sip of hot tea, and said slowly:
"Jask knows that you definitely lied and deceived Copernicus, but given Copernicus’s obsession with space-time particles, he would never give up on this piece of information, this opportunity."
"Jask says, you actually revealed too much to Copernicus. The current Copernicus, as well as other members of the Genius Club, simply cannot tell the difference between ordinary space-time particles and entangled state space-time particles... This is the greatest advantage known only to the both of you, and shouldn’t be disclosed. Just mentioning space-time particles is enough to get Copernicus hooked."
"Alright."
Lin Xian spread his hands helplessly:
"At the time, I was also anxious to prevent Copernicus from hibernating. Besides, I didn’t know how much Copernicus and the others knew about space-time particles. If I was too conservative, Copernicus might ignore me and just go into hibernation, so I had to throw some more chips into the game."
"But... this is actually good news, isn’t it? Since Copernicus has never possessed a space-time particle before, and is so unfamiliar with their properties, this is a once-in-a-blue-moon opportunity for us to set a trap, deceive him, and lure the snake out of its hole!"
Angelica smiled:
"You’re right, that’s why I finally found the opportunity to come to China and meet with you."
"Jask has already stabilized Copernicus, making excuses that he cannot yet operate the equipment left by Jask proficiently and is still adjusting... In fact, he’s buying time for me to meet with you, to come to an agreement."
"After all, Jask can only guess that you deceived Copernicus at the Genius Club meeting, but he doesn’t know exactly how. We need to know the specific details; only after knowing your concrete plan can we better coordinate with you."
"So, Lin Xian... in this operation, Jask and I will completely follow your command."
She clenched her fist firmly:
"We have both made all preparations to follow you and..."
"Kill Copernicus!"
