Genius Club-Chapter 1093 - 15 Metaphysics_2
Last but not least.
This was also what Lin Xian found perplexing before...
Why did The Godfather assign the most critical mission to the weak and dimwitted Lian Gang, as mentioned by Big Face Cat, causing the four of them to be extremely tense?
When Lin Xian first heard Big Face Cat saying this, he felt it was very strange.
Lee Cheng’s side was obviously more reliable and powerful, so why not entrust the important mission to the Lee Family troops?
Actually, the reason is simple: trust.
There is a deep friendship between Gao Wen and Cat Dad, that comes from being comrades and colleagues; thus, naturally, he also holds affection for Big Face Cat.
He has watched this Big Face kid grow up from a young age, knowing him inside and out, and understanding what kind of person Big Face Cat is.
This is what they call ’one of our own.’
Even within the City of Sin, amidst so many powerful gangs and capable people, Gao Wen still trusted Big Face Cat and Lian Gang the most, which is why he entrusted them with such responsibility.
Just like the affection Zhuge Liang had for Liu Shan.
No matter how foolish, how lacking, how disappointing, that was still the son of his former lord.
Of course, Gao Wen knew exactly what Big Face Cat was capable of, but since he was the flesh and blood of his revolutionary comrade and like a godson to him, he would absolutely not betray him or turn against him,
Therefore, at the crucial moment, the most important mission, Gao Wen could only feel at ease handing it over to Big Face Cat.
Alright then.
Although Lin Xian still doesn’t know what this most important mission is, he’ll find out sooner or later; there’s no rush for now.
It can only be said that.
During the hesitation just now with Xu Yiyi about which gang to join, mindlessly choosing Lian Gang turned out to be the right decision.
Not only did he get to meet The Godfather as soon as possible.
But also, thanks to the face given by Brother Lian and Cat Dad, Gao Wen also showed him a bit more kindness and trust.
Up to this point.
Lin Xian grasped an absolutely correct rule of the dream world—
[No matter when or where, Big Face Cat can always be trusted; Brother Lian will always be Brother Lian, that’s just how reliable he is.]
Having understood these matters.
Lin Xian stepped forward, extending his right hand to the elderly Gao Wen:
"Hello, Gao Wen, my name is Lin Xian."
Gao Wen squinted his eyes, looking at Lin Xian from behind his glasses:
"You are...?"
Lin Xian gave a slight smile.
He walked over to the Time Shuttle Machine, as massive as a truck, and patted its white casing:
"Since you’ve already created the Time Shuttle Machine, then the explanation is simple. I actually come from a different time and space, although not using the technology of the Time Shuttle Machine... But it’s too complicated to explain, just think of me as someone who traveled here using the Time Shuttle Machine."
"So, even if you don’t recognize me now, or don’t have an impression of me, the fact is... we’ve met many times, known each other for a long time, and have gone through many stories together."
"I have met with the younger you, you certainly wouldn’t believe it, you were digging in the excavation site; I also have met the middle-aged you, who was the principal of a small town; but this is my first time seeing such an old version of you, you must be in your sixties or seventies now, right?"
...
Listening to Lin Xian’s ramblings.
Gao Wen looked at the confident Lin Xian with curiosity, then at the massive Time Shuttle Machine beside him, and then at Big Face Cat behind him.
Big Face Cat panicked and quickly pulled out two mechanical android metal nameplates from his pocket, explaining:
"There’s... no problem, The Godfather!"
"Look, both of them have credentials, and you see this metal nameplate here, it’s for a police android! Take a look at this pistol... Don’t worry! The little brothers I take in, I trust! I have a good eye for people!"
Lin Xian of course understood that Gao Wen was suspicious of him.
So, he continued:
"Gao Wen, I know you’re doubting what I say, but don’t worry, I will prove it to you."
He recalled for a moment and then spoke:
"You were born in 2182, ever since you were young, you’ve been most interested in Hibernation Technology, and your greatest admiration was for Professor Xu Yun."
Gao Wen nodded:
"Everyone here knows that."
Lin Xian chuckled softly:
"However, you’ve always felt like you’re living in the shadows of others. The Hibernation Pod Filling Liquid had long been invented, and all sorts of hibernation by-products had already been developed, so... you probably feel somewhat unfulfilled and out of your time."
In an instant, Gao Wen’s expression turned serious:
"How do you know that?"
"Not only that."
Lin Xian found his train of thought:
"You once thought about just making a name for yourself in another field. You dabbled in research on the cosmological constant, and also touched on some other fields, but you ultimately couldn’t forget your initial love, Hibernation Technology." fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm
"Thus, you still went back to your roots, aiming at the last and sole unsolvable side effect of the Hibernation Field—Amnesia. You plan to conquer this historical challenge and complete the last piece of the puzzle for Hibernation Technology."
"And your approach was to create a Neural Electrocution Helmet, using electroshock to restore lost memories."
Gao Wen took a sharp breath, his eyes widening:
"This, this is content from my ’Memory Notebook’! I clearly burned it immediately after waking from hibernation and reading that handwritten letter."
"And another thing."
Lin Xian raised his index finger:
"Your research ultimately hit a wall because there has never been a breakthrough in the field of neural science, which made your research come to a standstill. That’s the reason you entered the Hibernation Pod; you wanted to wait until there were breakthroughs in neural science in the future before waking up, in order to complete your research."
"Furthermore, it’s worth mentioning that humans could have had breakthroughs in neural science long ago. Unfortunately, the genius of the neurology field, Lady Du Yao, died during a peacekeeping support mission in Africa, and for hundreds of years after, no one of such genius has emerged, and there has been no critical breakthrough in neurology to date."
