Chapter 1155: Chapter 33 Beneath the Masks, Above History_2

Gao Yang scoffed disdainfully.

Unconvinced:

“Big bro! It’s just a dream! Why do you bother applying logic and reality to a dream? Can Zhang Yuqian even write a paper in her dream? Why be so strict about something like a montage?”

“I think it’s merely a nightmare, and not really a big deal. Surely after this ordeal, Zhang Yuqian and her close friend didn’t really care much about it.”

“After all… we’ve gone through everything in Zhang Yuqian’s coffin, and apart from this videotape, there wasn’t any other tape, indicating that Zhang Yuqian only tried it once and then didn’t care anymore.”

“And that diary, there’re no records about the nightmare in that diary, which indicates that the matter is over, and Zhang Yuqian’s curiosity was also satisfied without further investigation.”

“After all, a nightmare is just a nightmare, it doesn’t matter what it was about. Plus, didn’t you hear what Zhang Yuqian said? If she wakes up normally from sleep, she wouldn’t remember the contents of the dream. That’s normal… Ask me what dream I had last night, and I wouldn’t have a clue.”

“Unless it’s a very impactful dream, most dreams are forgotten within minutes after waking up, I don’t think there’s anything wrong with Zhang Yuqian.”

…

Listening to Gao Yang’s superficial analysis, Lin Xian remained silent.

Obviously.

Gao Yang was unaware of many things, so he didn’t pay much attention to Zhang Yuqian’s [nightmare].

But Lin Xian was different.

No matter how you look at it, this dream was absolutely out of the ordinary!

First of all.

[It’s not just Zhang Yuqian having nightmares, Chu Anqing also experiences nightmares, and both of them forget about the dream at the same speed, forgetting everything a second or two after waking up.]

Such a coincidence can surely not be a coincidence!

One could even boldly hypothesize…

Is it possible that every Millennium Stake experiences similar nightmares?

“CC.”

Lin Xian muttered softly.

Now that Chu Anqing was gone, there was no way to verify the nightmare with Chu Anqing, but luckily, he could meet CC every night.

If CC also has nightmares, then this could be one of the characteristics of Millennium Stakes! His understanding of the Millennium Stakes would take another step deeper.

What makes Lin Xian even more curious is…

If CC also has nightmares, are her nightmares consistent with those of Chu Anqing and Zhang Yuqian?

Besides that, there was another unusual reason.

That is…

[In 1952, the keywords ‘Einstein,’ appear too frequently in all matters related to the Genius Club.]

The mysterious president of the Genius Club is an old man wearing an Einstein mask;

The correct way to obtain an invitation to the Genius Club is by finding clues and deciphering from the painting ‘The Sorrowful Einstein’;

And ‘The Sorrowful Einstein’ was painted in 1952 in New York’s Brooklyn;

The reason Einstein appears sorrowful in the painting is because Einstein himself was concerned about the emergence of super-weapons like the atomic bomb and hydrogen bomb, which could spell a bleak future for humanity;Last of all, the statutes and purpose of the Genius Club are to create a better future for mankind.

Suddenly.

Lin Xian had an epiphany.

It seems…

Through the connection of this one nightmare of Zhang Yuqian…

An extremely crucial clue has [closed the loop]!

“No, can it be?”

He took a deep breath.

Thinking of a wildly absurd, yet conceivable hypothesis that could explain everything.

He stood up from the sofa, looking at the messy living room:

“Where’s the pen? Where’s the paper?”

“Who would keep those things around the house.”

Gao Yang, picking his nose:

“It’s late, and we haven’t hung out in a long time. Let’s go for some midnight snacks, have some drinks, especially since Zhao Yingjun is pregnant now, and you don’t have to prepare for pregnancy either, let’s drink and chat.”

“We’ll talk about drinking later.”

Lin Xian, in midst of brainstorming, had no time to entertain Gao Yang.

He walked to the study, turned on the light, remembering having seen some pens in this room.

Indeed, he found some quickly.

He sat down at the desk, tore off a few pieces of rough paper, and began organizing his thoughts.

“Hey! Are we going to have barbecue or not!”

Gao Yang shouted from the living room:

“How long will you take?”

“About half an hour,” Lin Xian casually answered.

“Then I’ll take a shower and change clothes, and we can go have barbecue.”

Lin Xian in the study didn’t respond.

Gao Yang took it as a yes and immediately bounced off the sofa to take a shower.

…

The room became quiet.

Lin Xian massaged his temples, yet felt a chill on his back.

If.

This is how things unfolded?

He picked up a ballpoint pen and began organizing his thoughts on the rough paper according to chronological order.

In these logical deductions, some were real historical facts, while others were Lin Xian’s speculations.

Firstly, the [real history]–

In 1905, Einstein proposed the Special Theory of Relativity and the famous nuclear power formula E=MC2, laying the theoretical groundwork for the discovery and use of nuclear energy.

In 1939, Einstein wrote a letter to the then Mi Country President Roosevelt, suggesting the possibility of creating an atomic bomb, asserting that Germany might have been trying to develop one first, which could pose a massive threat to the world. Therefore, he recommended that Mi Country should also start researching immediately.

In 1941, Mi Country officially launched the top-secret project codenamed “Manhattan,” deciding to develop the super-weapon, the atomic bomb. The President even awarded this project “the highest priority over all other undertakings.”
