(Extra for monthly votes) “Lin Xian, what are you doing in there?
Why haven’t you come out yet?”
In the villa’s yard, Yu Xi had already driven the rugged off-road vehicle out of the garage and was waiting for Lin Xian to get in.
After pressing the car horn a few times to urge him, Lin Xian still hadn’t come out of the house.
Helplessly,
Yu Xi had no choice but to get out of the car again and go to the bedroom to look for Lin Xian:
“What’s the matter?
Why are you spacing out at a time like this.”
“Angelica replied to my text message.”
Lin Xian held up his cell phone in front of Yu Xi, showing her the message he had just received.
It was from Angelica’s cell phone number—
[Mississippi, outskirts of Vicksburg, 217 Rison Road, the old site of Pent Middle School.

This is Kevin Walker’s address, proceed there quickly, and do not contact me again.]
Yu Xi blinked:
“This is…”
She tilted her head, the short ponytail at the back of her head that looked like a hamster’s trembled:
“Kevin Walker?
Do you have a grudge against him?”
“Yes.”
Lin Xian replied indifferently:
“More than just a grudge, it’s a deep-seated hatred.”
He suddenly realized something and looked at Yu Xi:
“Have you never heard of this name before?”
Yu Xi shook her head:
“I’ve seen it in the news and newspapers, the whole world is after him, and many countries have issued arrest warrants.
But…it seems like the question you asked me wasn’t about this timeframe, this kind of recognition, right?”
“If you are referring to the era I come from, I have never heard this name, nor do I know of such a person.”
Lin Xian said nothing.
He continued to stare at the text message from Angelica and think.
“Did you ask Angelica to specifically gather this intelligence?” Seeing Lin Xian silent, Yu Xi continued to ask:
“Did you arrange for Angelica, to ask Jask for information about Kevin Walker?”
“No.”
But having said that, Lin Xian shook his head again:
“It’s not accurate to say no.
Although Angelica took a risk to find Jask this time, it wasn’t to scout information for me…
she did it for herself, to avenge her deceased brother, so she wanted to get some intelligence on the Genius Club, on Copernicus from Jask.”
“But fishing for information is all about luck; Jask isn’t Tmall Genie who answers any question asked.
I really did give Angelica a piece of paper with keywords written on it, and indeed Kevin Walker’s name was on it.”
“So it’s not impossible that Jask really did talk about Kevin Walker with the pretend female secretary—Angelica—in disguise, and then told her Kevin Walker’s address.”
“So.” Yu Xi looked up at Lin Xian:
“Are you going to take revenge?
To find this Kevin Walker?”
“No.”
Lin Xian shook his cell phone:
“I’m contemplating the authenticity of this information.”
The short ponytail at the back of Yu Xi’s head shook again:
“You suspect this piece of intelligence is fake?”
“Correct.”
Lin Xian nodded:
“In my judgment, Jask and Kevin Walker should have a very bad relationship and are quite antagonistic enemies.
Analyzing from actions taken, Jask launched rockets to destroy Kevin Walker’s hijacked Skyspace Aircraft, spoiling his plan; Kevin Walker’s retaliations against Jask were also significant, destroying his Starlink Satellites and blowing up many factories.”
“Although both are suspected to be members of the Genius Club, the events between them have far exceeded a joking or playful level.
To some extent, the grudges between Jask and Kevin Walker seem even more severe than mine.”
“Under such a premise…
I’m puzzled, if Jask really knows Kevin Walker’s address, then why hasn’t he gone directly to eliminate this threat?
𝗇𝗈𝘃𝗴𝗈.co
Although Mi Country is also a country ruled by law, Kevin Walker, as an enemy of the world, is no longer protected by any country’s laws.
Killing him would not only end public hatred but also earn a reward, even medals.”
“Moreover, Jask, more than anyone, would want to strangle Kevin Walker.
This world’s most powerful hacker, whom the whole world can’t find, Jask is probably the person on this planet who would love to see him dead the most.
It doesn’t feel like Jask is the sort to leisurely chat with a secretary and reveal the address, even planning to rest for a few days before seeking revenge.”
“Kevin Walker is known as the strongest hacker in human history, so his counter-surveillance capabilities must also be formidable.
Including the street cameras, the cell phones in our hands, I believe he could invade them if he wanted to.”
“So, after such analysis…
doesn’t it seem contradictory?
[Jask wouldn’t delay seeking vengeance upon learning Kevin Walker’s address; he certainly wouldn’t be motionless like this; at the same time, Kevin Walker would definitely not fail to notice his own exposed whereabouts, he would move quickly, continuing to disappear from the human world.]”
…
“I understand now.”
Yu Xi, listening to Lin Xian’s analysis, then said:
“So…
you think this is a [bait]?
A lure by Jask to hook us, to draw us into a trap?”
“But there’s also a contradictory point here because I can sense the Time-Space Assassin linked with me, we can both know each other’s location and distance.
So, in such a situation of total transparency, of all cards on the table…
what’s the need for bait or a trap?”
