Genius Club-Chapter 1319 - 17 Halloween and Einstein_3

Tap.

Lin Xian stopped in his tracks and looked back at CC:

"Do you like dancing?"

In the dream, CC really loved dancing. The Lian Village tap dance was taught by Lin Xian and remained a memory fragment forever in CC’s mind.

Chu Anqing was even more skilled, having studied dance professionally since childhood.

So...

This is a question where the answer is known before it’s asked, and Lin Xian had already guessed it before CC responded.

"Of course!"

Straightforward CC never held back, jumping to the side and tapping the pumpkin lamp on the railing.

Thud thud.

It was indeed a big pumpkin.

After hollowing it out, a candle was lit inside.

"The grandma at the welfare home taught us how to dance."

CC touched the head of the pumpkin lamp:

"When she was young, grandma was a professional theater actress, a very professional type."

"Grandma really is capable of anything..."

Lin Xian couldn’t help but marvel.

This legendary grandma had a bit of the Emperor Gao Wen’s taste, and could be called a jack of all trades.

"Since you say so..."

Lin Xian folded his arms, looked at CC with a slight smile:

"[Then let’s go to the masquerade ball now.] "

"Eh?"

CC was taken aback:

"Isn’t it a bit late now?"

"How could it~"

Lin Xian took out a wad of US dollars from his coat pocket:

"Money makes the world go round!"

...

Attending a masquerade ball isn’t something with particularly high barriers.

Halloween Eve is originally a traditional festival in Mi Country, with great tolerance. Whether you make an effort at disguising or not, you can freely participate, even just wearing a mask, as happiness is paramount.

Lin Xian and CC got into a taxi and asked the driver about the masquerade ball.

In any city.

Taxi drivers are the most reliable sources of information, so if there’s anything you want to know, just ask them.

"Oh, a masquerade ball, you can go to the club opposite the theater... They host the most bustling Halloween ball every year there!"

The Big Beard driver laughed heartily:

"I’ve already driven several batches of guests there today; it’s really lively. Furthermore, there are dedicated costume, makeup, and mask stalls at the club entrance, perfect for those who didn’t prepare in advance."

"Great."

Lin Xian tipped the driver extra:

"We’ll go there."

Not long after, the taxi stopped in front of the theater, the same one where Lin Xian and CC watched "Alice in Wonderland" yesterday. Across the street was the club hosting the masquerade ball, bustling with people in various strange costumes constantly coming and going.

"What a coincidence."

Lin Xian got out of the car and looked at the two movie posters pasted on the theater’s wall.

"The Feud of the Big Tree Ridge" and "Alice in Wonderland."

It’s them again, just seen yesterday.

He stared at the poster for "The Feud of the Big Tree Ridge," where the names of the lead actors were written in large font—

[Kirk Douglas] fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm

"Maybe we should watch this movie too."

Lin Xian turned to CC:

"I feel there’s some karmic connection..."

"Lin Xian!"

CC suddenly interrupted him, grabbed Lin Xian’s arm and shook it vigorously, pointing excitedly across the street:

"Look! Look at that black vintage car!"

Lin Xian glanced up.

It seemed like an ordinary vintage car:

"What’s up with that car? Have you seen it before?"

"Of course!"

CC’s eyes widened as she looked at Lin Xian:

"That’s the car that often passes by the welfare home entrance... Einstein’s car. His license plate is exactly this; I wouldn’t mistake it, it’s definitely Einstein’s car!"

Einstein’s car...

Upon hearing this information, Lin Xian instantly became alert.

He instinctively pulled CC to his side, turning her to face him away from the street, and put her coat hood on her, covering her thoroughly.

Then he squinted, staring at the vintage car that had just stopped.

He only saw.

A driver wearing white gloves stepped out from the front door, then walked around to the right rear door, pulling it open and bowing.

White frizzy hair first appeared through the car door frame.

The elderly man stepped onto the ground, adjusting his clothes, and turned around.

A weary face hung on him, eyes dull and looking into the distance, even the dense mustache seemed worn out.

Lin Xian took a deep breath...

That face.

He wouldn’t mistake it.

Seen countless times in textbooks, an eternal monument in human physics history, also the true form of the Genius Club President’s mask—

Albert Einstein!
