It’s even more excessive on the side of the real and fake Yu Xi, fighting non-stop from start to finish, stealing motorcycles and cars wherever they go;
Such exaggerated behavior didn’t even break the Space-Ti Elasticity.
By comparison... what I’m doing is just a drizzle.
But.
Still, that saying goes.
Don’t let your guard down.
The risks I undertake are different from those of Huang Que and the real and fake Yu Xi.
They ca with a desperate mindset, the main battlefield is the space-ti after the crossing.
While my main battlefield is not here, it is in the original space-ti before crossing.
"I must ensure a safe return."
Lin Xian felt the kite string at the back of his head again:
"I must ensure... this kite string cannot be broken."
...
Soon, CC’s makeup and costu transformation were completed.
Her face was ghostly pale, blood trickled from her lips, her eyes were dark, Lin Xian couldn’t recognize her as the original CC at all.
"Ahw!"
CC spread her fingers, reveal her fangs, and posed as if about to bite soone.
Lin Xian was amused by this adorable ’dragon roar’ expression:
"Vampires don’t sound like that."
"Oh, really?"
CC scratched her head and chuckled:
"Then how do vampires sound?"
"Vampires don’t make sounds."
Lin Xian corrected:
"Vampires in films usually appear as noble and gentlemanly, apart from showing fangs while sucking blood, they’re not much different from ordinary humans, so just act normally."
"Oh."
CC replied, retracting her fangs.
After tidying up her tools, the makeup artist ca over to Lin Xian:
"Sir, what kind of makeup would you like?"
"Hmm... your appearance is so handso, your features are delicate and angular, you’re practically born to be an actor or model, I can’t help but want to do your makeup!"
"I suggest you also play a vampire or a werewolf like this beautiful lady, it would make you more matching!"
Lin Xian shook his head:
"I’ll pass, makeup is too troubleso... cough cough."
His hoarse throat coughed again.
Perhaps it was lack of scallions and sesa oil, the boiled egg soup he had in the morning didn’t have any therapeutic effect, his throat was still hoarse, and it felt like the irritation was getting worse, showing signs of mouth ulcers.
He stopped talking and looked at the mask stand next to him.
Lin Xian had already made up his mind earlier.
He had already spotted his target—
A King Kong gorilla mask headpiece!
"King Kong" is a black-and-white film released in 1933, telling the story of a giant gorilla who falls for a human woman and causes chaos in New York.
The plot basically ans that over the following decades, the King Kong IP was remade many tis, even eventually joining the Monster Universe, fighting Godzilla.
Lin Xian walked to the mask stand and picked up the gorilla headpiece.
The craftsmanship was quite exquisite.
The hair was very realistic, and the gorilla’s face at the front was lifelike, the eye part had two holes to see outside.
"Very nice."
Lin Xian really liked it.
He paid for it, put on the gorilla headpiece, and returned to CC:
"Cool or not?"
"It’s so ugly."
CC frowned:
"You’re really scary now, such a terrifying gorilla head... plus your voice is different from before, you seem like a [stranger]."
"Hehe."
Lin Xian laughed:
"That’s exactly the effect I want."
Since it’s still unclear whether Einstein is the Genius Club President, it’s best not to reveal my identity.
If this is all just a ridiculous misunderstanding, then whatever.
But if the great Einstein before is indeed the all-knowing Genius Club President...
[Appearing before him with my true face could easily cause a Temporal Flux and Space-Ti Butterfly Effect, maybe even a world line jump, thwarting my plan.]
This consequence is sothing Lin Xian cannot bear.
And now, fortunately, his voice has changed, which is a serendipitous ’disguise’ condition.
[When did Einstein’s omniscience begin?]
Lin Xian thinks, definitely not now.
At this mont, the Millennium Stakes have not yet been driven, the Space-ti Law hasn’t started to take effect, and the Genius Club is likely not established yet.
So, at this current point in ti, disguising with fake voices and headgear to et Einstein is quite safe.
"Now we are ’Beauty and the Beast.’"
Lin Xian, wearing a gorilla mask, looks at CC.
"Beauty and the Beast?"
CC chuckled:
"Why not vampire and gorilla?"
"Didn’t the old lady at the welfare ho ever tell you the fairy tale ’Beauty and the Beast’?" Lin Xian asked.
"Nope."
CC shook her head:
"Is that fairy tale famous? I’ve never heard of it."
"Alright."
Lin Xian nodded.
The old lady at the welfare ho just dropped from the pedestal; it seems that she isn’t omnipotent either.
"Almost ready, let’s head out."
Lin Xian adjusted his clothes and the position of the mask, speaking in a hoarse voice:
"Since we’ve completed our transformation... it’s ti to enter the venue and attend the Halloween party."
Like that.
The little pale-faced, fang-baring vampire followed behind King Kong, the gorilla, as they headed to the hall across the street.
Such bizarre costus would attract attention at any ti.
Except for today.
Nationally celebrated Halloween.
Such dress-up was normal, perfectly blending into the environnt.
Lin Xian took a US dollar bill from his pocket and slapped it into the hands of the servant at the entrance:
"Two tickets, the rest is a tip."
The servant opened his eyes wide, never having seen such generosity, bowing frantically:
"Sir! Miss! Please co inside!"
Entering the hall.
Inside were gods and monsters, spirits and specters, all present.
The dance segnt hadn’t started yet; various odd creatures gathered in the venue chatting, laughing raucously.
"A bit eerie."
Lin Xian said sincerely.
This was his first ti attending a Halloween party, definitely visually striking; this venue was too frenzied, even wilder than any of his dreams:
"That one wrapped all over in bandages is a mummy? What... what’s that woman playing as? Where are her clothes? Isn’t she cold?"
"Pro... probably a succubus."
CC was also greatly shocked, quickly pulling Lin Xian to go inside:
"Let’s not stand here dazed. I already checked the description outside; there’s a buffet inside! We’re so late, the good food might already be gone... we need to hurry."
"Good food?"
Lin Xian laughed helplessly:
"I’ve lost faith in Manhattan’s ability to offer anything truly delicious; it’s probably just snacks, wine, barbecue, fries, potatoes, and the like, right?"
They walked to the dining table inside, looking at the delicacies, which indeed matched Lin Xian’s guesses closely; almost instantaneously, he felt a fla flare up in his throat.
"You eat here." Lin Xian’s throat felt extrely uncomfortable.
"You’re not eating?" CC expertly picked up a plate, ready to feast.
"I’ll just find so fruit to eat."
Lin Xian also picked up a white plate:
"Eating such high-calorie food... I might actually beco mute by tomorrow. Ugh? Wait, no!"
Realizing it belatedly, he reached to touch the mouth part of his mask—
The gorilla maw protruding forward, completely sealed.
"Pft... hahahahaha."
CC looked at Lin Xian’s amusing mask and funny actions, laughing until she bent over, her long fangs adorning her dimples at the corners of her lips, becoming even cuter:
"You really are, oh dear, you’re making my stomach hurt from laughing. Told you to just put on makeup... you insisted on wearing a gorilla mask, and now look? Besides fruit, you can’t even drink wine or beverages!"
"Won’t eat then, no big deal."
Lin Xian put down the white plate again, spreading his hands:
"Mi Country’s fruit is inherently diocre in taste."
"Then I won’t stay here to eat with you; I’m heading over there and will co back to find you later."
CC turned back, puzzled looking at Lin Xian:
"Where are you going?"
Lin Xian adjusted the gorilla mask on his face.
Gazing at the corner of the venue, where Einstein sat alone and forlorn at a dining table, he smiled slightly:
"Opportunities for us to et great figures are rare. You stay here to eat and don’t move around. I’m going to..."
"[Find Einstein for a chat.]"
