A few days later.

Lin Xian returned to Donghai City with Du Yao and arrived at the research institute set up for her.

"Although technically I purchased it, everything is registered under the Dragon Science Academy."

While giving Du Yao a tour, Lin Xian explained:

"Dean Gao Yan over at the Dragon Science Academy has been very supportive of me. Everything has been handled cleanly. From any perspective, this institute has no connection to me or the Rhein Company, and even the funding comes routed through the Dragon Science Academy."

Du Yao turned her head to look at Lin Xian:

"You have that much influence?"

"Heh."

Lin Xian chuckled softly:

"Just some personal connections. I’m fortunate that Dean Gao Yan thinks so highly of me and has helped me considerably."

This time, Lin Xian was being honest.

On the first of next month, during the next Genius Club meeting, when Galileo inevitably asks again about resolving winter-sleep amnesia, Einstein will surely refuse to answer.

But that refusal would be tantamount to confirming that this matter is linked to one of the members present.

If Du Yao manages her breakthrough and announces the results then...

It would essentially blow their cover.

Better to be cautious.

"The funding is more than adequate; you can ask for as much as you need."

Lin Xian continued to explain to Du Yao:

"You will have full control over the lab. Hire whoever you want, but remember, the research focus must stay locked within the neural science field. Don’t delve into solving winter-sleep amnesia."

"The manuscript for the Neural Electrocution Helmet is very complete. Once you make a breakthrough on your end and fill in the theoretical gaps, you can build it directly by following the instructions step by step."

"I understand."

Du Yao nodded:

"I get what you mean. It’s all for confidentiality, and you have your reasons. I’ll naturally cooperate with you."

"Moreover... I won’t bore you with too many details. Breakthroughs in theory and direction aren’t necessarily tied to staffing, equipment, or investment. It’s about the thought process and a flash of inspiration... Yes, that’s the phrase you used, and I firmly agree."

"Take Newton’s three laws and the law of universal gravitation as examples—they all came from a flash of inspiration. The widely known story of the apple falling on Newton’s head may have elements of fabrication, but its general meaning is accurate."

"I’ll focus solely on breakthroughs in neural science. Everything outside the research itself will be your responsibility."

Finally, they finished touring the entire lab. Du Yao leaned against the lab counter, resting her hands on the edge, and looked at Lin Xian:

"Next year, on Tang Xin’s death anniversary, will you go with me to visit her grave? I hope that by then we can bring our results to share the good news with her."

"After all... this is also continuing down the path she left for us, filling in the last piece of the winter-sleep technology puzzle. She would probably be very happy."

As she spoke, Du Yao let out a small sigh and gazed out the window:

"She was always so happy, always smiling, as if she was perpetually joyful. I can hardly remember her expressing any other emotions—she truly was a girl who loved to laugh."

"No problem."

Lin Xian agreed:

"I, too, have many things I’d like to report to Tang Xin. Let’s make plans for her death anniversary next year to visit her grave together."

...

The matter involving Du Yao was finally settled in a race against time.

Everything went fairly smoothly.

It was mainly Tang Xin’s unseen guidance that quickly earned Du Yao’s trust.

In their conversations, Lin Xian could tell.

Du Yao’s greatest satisfaction with him wasn’t due to any exceptional traits or because Tang Xin liked him so much.

It was...

That he kept his promises, avenged Tang Xin, restored her reputation, and proved himself as a person of integrity, responsibility, and resolve.

With full authority of the research institute handed over to Du Yao, Lin Xian no longer interfered and awaited her results.

He had already prepared himself for potential changes in the dreamworld.

But after entering it, Lin Xian found that the dreamscape remained unchanged—still the stifling and suffocating Eighth Dreamland. Miss Da Vinci’s Savior Corporation still ruled this world with its grotesque management methods.

At this point, it wasn’t hard to understand.

[The irremediable anchor point hasn’t formed, space-time elasticity hasn’t reached its threshold, and the future trajectory remains uncertain.]

"Can’t let my guard down just yet."

Lin Xian squinted.

We’ll see how Galileo frames his questions and how Einstein responds in the next Genius Club meeting.

If any sudden situation arises, he’s prepared to act immediately to protect Du Yao, ensuring humanity’s sole chance at overcoming winter-sleep amnesia.

Back home.

He found a giant puff of dandelion fluff rolling by the door.

After just a few days, the Pomeranian VV had put on a lot of weight and was now shaped like a plump, round ball.

"How did you get so fat again?"

Lin Xian asked.

On the couch, Zhao Yingjun turned her head with a smile:

"Probably because it’s been fed too much lately. On one hand, there are more people feeding it, and on the other, I’ve been home more and feeding it on a regular schedule."

"The key issue is that VV hasn’t adjusted its old eating habits yet. Back when it was fed once a day, it would gobble up food like it was starving to death, treating every meal like a last supper... and now it’s like this."

Lin Xian gently nudged the round VV with the top of his shoe.

The dog waddled with its protruding belly, flailing its four stubby legs as it rolled twice on the floor. It struggled to stand back up, dragged its belly along the ground, shuffled back, and gave Lin Xian a sideways glare.

"You really can’t eat any more."
