“Never mind, I’ll do it.”
Lin Xian knew Yu Xi wasn’t adept at it, so he personally took over, pressing on her eyelids to fit the pure black contact lenses onto her eyeballs.
“How does it feel?” Lin Xian asked.
Yu Xi blinked rapidly and responded, “I don’t feel anything.”
“Then it’s right, it means they’re working well.
Look up, let me see.”
Obediently, Yu Xi looked up.
Lin Xian gazed at her eyes, which were covered by the black contacts but still emanated blue light…
It felt even more conspicuous, more attention-grabbing.
“Now put these sunglasses on.”
Lin Xian placed a pair of large, pure black sunglasses on Yu Xi’s face.
This was better!
The eerie blue glow in her eyes was finally invisible, nearing perfection.

“Looks good.”
Lin Xian nodded in approval and asked, “How do you feel?”
“I feel like I’m almost blind…” Yu Xi shook her head from side to side and said, “My vision is so poor, it’s all murky, I can hardly see anything.”
“Bear with it a bit,” Lin Xian said with a helpless smile.
“When I reported to the Director of the National Security Bureau, I specifically described the Time-Space Assassin’s characteristic blue eyes.
It’s best to avoid trouble if it’s not necessary.
Besides, we can’t be separated, and it’s inevitable that we’ll be asked questions.
If someone actually saw those blue glowing eyes, it’d be hard for me to explain.”
“Why can’t we be separated?”
Yu Xi, wearing those large sunglasses, looked up and said, “Currently, the Time-Space Assassin is still in Mi Country, not getting any closer to China…
So your situation is still very safe, there’s no need to be this cautious.”
“It’s better to be safe than sorry.”
Lin Xian still trusted Huang Que very much and said, “In any case, we should stay together as much as possible if we can.”
After leaving the shopping center.
The two got back into the Alphard Business Vehicle and headed towards the Rhein Building.
The reason for not going home was twofold.
First, Lin Xian felt that his home was not secure enough; comparatively, the Rhein Building in the commercial district had more people, stronger security forces, and a higher police presence.
Second, his Genius Club invitation and the gold pin symbolizing membership were both locked in his office safe; having been away so long, he was a bit worried and wanted to check on them.
The business vehicle cruised along the elevated highway.

Xiao Li reported while driving: “Mr.
Lin, Director Liu An came to East Sea himself a few days ago, mobilized all the surveillance, and summoned me to identify the blue-eyed girl assassin.”
“The photographs were very clear, so Director Liu An directly had the police enter the facial recognition data into the Skynet System.
As long as any street camera captures her, an immediate alarm will be triggered.”
“But these past few days have been quiet, no discoveries, so Director Liu An suggested that the girl assassin might have left the country with you.
He asked me to remind you to be careful, but your phone was off the entire time, and I couldn’t get through.”
Lin Xian listened and nodded quietly: “That’s good.
At least with the blue-eyed girl’s appearance entered into the criminal identification database, she won’t be able to enter China through normal channels…
Even if she wanted to return to East Sea from abroad, she would have to exert some effort.”
Now, Lin Xian felt relatively at ease.
Because his current situation was different from when he had hurriedly left the country.
Now he had Yu Xi as a bodyguard, who could match the Time-Space Assassin, and Yu Xi herself was like a portable radar, always aware of the Time-Space Assassin’s distance and direction.
Plus, the Time-Space Assassin’s facial data had been entered into the Skynet System.
With these three layers of defense, although he still couldn’t be careless, he at least felt some sense of security.
After exiting the elevated highway and passing a public elementary school, they soon arrived at the Rhein Building.
Lin Xian and Yu Xi took the express elevator from the underground parking lot to Lin Xian’s office.
Lin Xian sat in the executive chair and turned on his computer, pointing to the sofa nearby: “Yu Xi, take a rest there for a bit, I need to look up some information.”
Yu Xi nodded.
She casually picked up a copy of “Andersen’s Fairy Tales” from the corner of the desk and sat down on the sofa: “Can I lift the sunglasses now?”
“You can,” Lin Xian reminded her.
“But if someone comes in later, or if we go out, make sure to push the sunglasses down in time, don’t let anyone see your eyes.”
After getting permission, Yu Xi pushed the sunglasses up and began to read “Andersen’s Fairy Tales.”
Since his computer was still booting up.
Lin Xian, out of boredom, watched Yu Xi.
And he discovered!
Yu Xi read books…
at an absurdly fast pace!
That uncut original edition of “Andersen’s Fairy Tales,” with its small font and lengthy pages, was rather abstruse and awkward to read due to translation issues.
But regardless.
Yu Xi’s hand moved back and forth like a sewing machine, flipping pages almost mechanically in mere seconds, swiftly scanning from top to bottom before turning to the next.
Lin Xian was somewhat amazed.
Reading had become a physical exercise for her.
“Are you…
quantum reading?” Lin Xian asked.
“No.”
Yu Xi flipped the pages as she replied: “This is how we read, just quite fast.”
“Can you remember it all?”
“I remember it clearly.”
Listening to Yu Xi’s answer, Lin Xian couldn’t help but think back to his conversation with VV, the intelligent central brain of Rhine Sky City during his Third Dreamland.
At that time, VV mentioned that not even the whole Rhine Sky City could find someone as slow as Lin Xian.
