Today was the first day of the Golden Week holiday, and people across the nation were enjoying their time off, traveling back and forth in a wonderfully lively atmosphere.
Donghai City, as a popular tourist destination, also welcomed a wave of visitors.
The already crowded city became even more so, the increase in the density of pedestrian and vehicular traffic visible to the naked eye.
However,
This light-hearted pleasure and excitement had nothing to do with Lin Xian.
He hadn’t experienced leisure and joy for a long time, just like now.
Despite the rare holiday, his life was no different from before.
Having finished washing up, he was ready to enter his noonday dream again to take a closer look at Academician Gao Wen’s notebook.
“The theoretical basis of time shuttle theory, and the construction concept of the Time Shuttle Machine”
Such a trump card of research findings.
There was absolutely no reason not to monopolize it.
But…
Having the theory alone was not enough; he also needed to figure out how to construct the Time Shuttle Machine.

This was where the difficulty lay.
The Rhein United Laboratory of Donghai University certainly lacked such capabilities.
That was Liu Feng’s personal laboratory, with limited equipment and resources.
If he wanted to construct the Time Shuttle Machine, a larger, more professional research institute was required.
Calculating this way, his remaining savings of three billion seemed to be insufficient.
At the same time, there was another matter.
To activate the Time Shuttle Machine, Space-Time Particles were indispensable.
Both Jask and the fake Yu Xi had confirmed that Space-Time Particles were needed to accomplish time travel; they were a very important, very rare, and scarce resource.
Lin Xian brushed his teeth while looking at himself in the mirror:
“I must find a way…
to catch another Space-Time Particle.”
“Otherwise, if I someday manage to construct the Time Shuttle Machine but can’t activate it due to the lack of Space-Time Particles, that would be embarrassing.”
“I’ll have to have a good talk with Liu Feng later, see if we can find some perfect solution.
But first, the financial growth of Rhein Company is still too slow.
The next step is to address the asset issue.”
“One must have plenty of money to carry out many plans simultaneously and to strengthen my capabilities.”
He rinsed his mouth and spit out the toothpaste foam.
In this world, to have one’s own power and achievements, it was imperative to have money.
The dream phase for the next stage.
First transcribe Academician Gao Wen’s research, then consider making money.
He dried his face.
Turned off the bathroom light.
Lin Xian went to the bedroom, lay down on the single bed, and closed his eyes.
Gradually…
He drifted into dreamland.
…
…
…
This time, entering the dream was a familiar path.
Considering that he just needed to pretend to be husband and wife to join Lian Village and then recite the notes in Gao Wen’s safe,
There was no need to go looking for Grandpa Wei Shengjin.
It was better to just intercept CC halfway.
By now, Lin Xian had run through this forest several times and was generally familiar with the terrain and directions.
It didn’t take long for him to intercept CC on the way.
Another round of earnest persuasion.
CC nodded:
“So that’s how it is, so we must pretend to be a married couple in order to trick Er Zhuzi and get him to introduce us to Lian Gang.”
“But…
I have no experience with romance; I have no idea how to act like a wife, nor do I know…
what intimacy looks like.”
Lin Xian waved his hand:
“It’s not as complicated as you think; you have to have faith in Er Zhuzi’s intelligence.”
“How should I address you?”
CC was very serious:
“Do I still call you Lin Xian, or should I call you ‘husband’ or something?”
“Uh…”
Lin Xian scratched his head:
“That’s up to you.
Er Zhuzi might get so excited he won’t give you a chance to speak at all.”
The two quickly made their way to Lian Village.
Whoosh!
Er Zhuzi brandished his red-tasseled spear fiercely:
“Who goes there!”
“Brother, calm down.” Lin Xian pointed to CC behind him:
“My wife and I—”
Boom!
Two streams of steam burst from Er Zhuzi’s nostrils as he stepped forward eagerly, gripping Lin Xian’s hands tightly:
“Is it the sister-in-law!?”
“Yes.”
Lin Xian nodded freely, openly acknowledging it.
This was the second time he and CC were playing husband and wife; he was now practiced at it.
And CC, who had not received love lessons from Grandpa Wei Shengjin this time, felt no realism nor had any acting skills, so she simply stood honestly behind Lin Xian.
However…
When facing an opponent with the intellectual level of Er Zhuzi, there was absolutely no need for such fanciful acting; this was enough.
They blended into Lian Village smoothly.
Lin Xian and CC volunteered themselves to the Hafnium Alloy Safe, and within moments, bam—it was open.
“Wha?”
Big Face Cat’s eyes bulged as he sidled over:
“How did the two of you open it so quickly!
We’ve been trying one code after another for over a decade!
We’ve been trying since my father’s time!”
“You two are too strong; are you Code Experts or something?
Come on, come on, open it up and let me see what’s inside!”
In his eagerness, Big Face Cat threw open the safe door and peered inside with his big face:
“Ugh, it’s just books.
My dad would’ve liked to study these, but they’re no use to us!”
“Ah…
to think that after over a decade spent cracking this damn safe, this is all there is inside!
It’s infuriating!
I was hoping for some treasure!”
Lin Xian removed Gao Wen’s notebook from inside.

He waved it at Big Face Cat:
“Knowledge is power; finding knowledge in a safe is precisely the best outcome.
What else were you expecting to find?”
