Activate!_2 Lin Xian closed his eyes.
He mulled over the current situation.
Jask was under 24-hour surveillance by VV, Kevin Walker’s strength was far inferior to VV’s, and Mi Country’s skyspace aircraft would never be hijacked as long as VV was around.
Indeed…
With VV as a safety net, at first glance, there seemed to be no danger.
Even if there was danger, VV could detect it promptly, prevent it, or notify him to change strategies.
Just as he had said.
In the year 2024, it was invincible, and no one could do anything about it.
“Alright then.”
Lin Xian said,
“Starting tomorrow, Gao Yang will begin practicing with the mechanical arm.
You’d better not get involved and help him cheat from the start.

Let him practice on his own.
It’s not that I don’t trust your abilities, but since Gao Yang is already here, we might as well make sure we’re fully prepared.”
Having said that,
Lin Xian picked up his phone and checked the time.
It was not even one o’clock in the morning.
He opened WeChat and saw many new year’s greetings.
From friends, family, colleagues, and…
also from the Vice President of Rhein Company, Brother Wang.
Checking the time, it was sent three minutes ago.
It seemed he hadn’t gone to bed yet.
Just right, as Lin Xian wanted to ask him about the situation with Tem Bank, so he dialed his number right away.
The call connected after just two rings.
“Hahaha, Lin Xian!
Happy New Year!”
As soon as the call connected,
Brother Wang’s side burst with the sounds of various fireworks and firecrackers, full of New Year’s atmosphere:
“Happy New Year, Brother Wang.
How are things with Tem Bank?”
“Oh, what a coincidence!”
Brother Wang laughed heartily over the phone,
“Today, there’s double good news about the bank!
But President Zhao said you’ve been seconded by the state for some secret mission.
I thought…
well, a secret mission, I shouldn’t disturb you, so I planned to find a chance to tell you later.”
“Since you’re not resting now, I’ll just tell you straight!
The first piece of good news is about the qualification approval.”
Brother Wang swallowed, paused for a moment, and continued,
“Our Tem Bank, in order to develop better and survive, we were planning to use the 3 billion cash from Rhein Company for some investments or financial services.
With the business domain being expanded, all the procedures, approvals, and qualifications had to be reapplied for.
Especially the banking license for financial services…
The policies have tightened in recent years, and they’re very hard to obtain.”
“I’ve been working hard for the past few months, but the results weren’t so promising, and there was a lot of resistance from above.
However, a few days ago, wasn’t President Zhao returning from the Eastern Sea to his old home in the Imperial Capital for the New Year?
𝕟𝑜𝘃𝕘𝑜.co
On New Year’s Eve, when his big Zhao Family was having their dinner, it so happened that President Zhao’s uncle is the national official in charge of this area.”
“That’s someone with a high position and an incredible influence!
President Zhao just mentioned it to the official, and being his kind uncle, he happily agreed and solved it for us with one phone call!
The person in charge here on the Eastern Sea side called me specially to say, after the New Year holiday, once the offices reopen, they’ll process it directly for me, and I just need to bring the materials.”
“Meaning, the last bit of resistance for Tem Bank’s business has been dealt with!
As soon as the new year is over and I get the license at the earliest chance…
Tem Bank can start operating at any time!”
…
So that’s what happened.
Upon hearing Brother Wang’s words, Lin Xian understood.
Perhaps…
The anchor point for the Temporal Flux was created during the Zhao Family’s New Year’s Eve dinner, starting from the moment Zhao Yingjun spoke to her uncle.
At present, all the procedures for Tem Bank had been completed, and opening for business was a done deal.
“When are you planning to start the trial operation?” Lin Xian asked.
“I’m planning to start it on March 20th.
That’s your birthday, Lin Xian.
You’ve helped so much with this dream of mine; I hope to open on your birthday as a way to thank you.”
Clearly, Brother Wang had already planned it:
“Of course, Lin Xian, the official opening date, the official founding date of Tem Bank, will still be set on August 28, 2024, as per your instructions.
And the matter of advertising with airships circling the city every 100 years, I will definitely fix that in the company charter, ensuring it’s always the first and foremost obligation to be fulfilled!”
Lin Xian smiled and said nothing more.
He wasn’t particularly concerned about the exact day Tem Bank would start operating—it was just a matter of being a few days early or late.
The task of capturing Space-Time Particles in space would keep him busy until the end of March.
Tem Bank starting trial operations on March 20th wouldn’t interfere with his upcoming plans and would even bridge them perfectly.
Lin Xian had already decided.
After finishing the capture of the Space-Time Particles, he would let Liu Feng continue the research on the Space-Time Clock, space-time curvature, and the cosmological constant.
He, meanwhile, would first return to Tem Bank in the Eastern Sea to claim his hafnium alloy safe and see what the deal was with the eight-digit password that had troubled him and CC for so long!
Afterward,
he would head to Qufu in Shandong to dig up Zhang Yuqian’s grave, retrieve her body tissues, and compare them with Chu Anqing’s hair DNA.
By then, the connection and secrets among Zhang Yuqian, Chu Anqing, and even CC would all be revealed in that DNA test report.
That was the plan.
If everything went smoothly, that would be ideal; if problems arose, he would deal with them step by step.
However,
Lin Xian still hoped for an appropriate opportunity to solve the Mirror Puzzle left by Huang Que; furthermore, to break the secret on “The Sorrowful Einstein” sooner rather than later, in order to gain more intelligence about the Genius Club sooner and secure one—
