Genius Club Chapter 345

Chapter 345: Chapter 34 Ji Lin’s Secret Chapter 345: Chapter 34 Ji Lin’s Secret Lin Xian made no move.

He simply lifted his head, staring at the stunning Hollywood actress before him.

Angelica…

Being a fan of movies himself, Lin Xian had heard this name long before his encounter with the Seven Sins.

She debuted as a child star in her teens and dominated Hollywood for over a decade, not only with explosive acting skills but also with a versatile style, mastering any role easily.

Thus, she also earned the nickname “chameleon witch” from her fans.

Recently, she had won the Oscar for Best Actress for her role in “Broken Bridge,” pleting the Grand Slam and adding the final piece to her acting career.

At the young age of twenty-six, she had achieved a Grand Slam in the film industry, a true testament to her extraordinary talent.

It must be said, Angelica’s unique appearance was an indispensable part of her success.

Hollywood was not short of white actresses, nor black actresses, nor those with Asian features.

What was most lacking was Angelica’s kind of sharp, Middle Eastern natural appearance.

That sculptural sense of dimensionality is something that no other race has, a natural advantage like no other.

Lin Xian liked to use the word “sculptural” to describe the people in New Donghai City from the Second Dreamland and those in Rhine Sky City from the Third Dreamland, where both men and women have “cosmetic surgery” through genetic modification, making them look like sculptures.

This also indirectly shows that such sculptural sense is the most ultimate form of beauty.

VV once said that her looks would only rank as moderate or slightly below in Rhine Sky City, but Lin Xian believed that Angelica, with her angelic face, would have no problem being above average there.

To outclass genetically modified beings with one’s natural-born visage alone was enough to see how much Angelica was favored by the heavens, just like her name, Anjelica, like an angel.

However, no one would have thought…

This “chameleon witch” actually had another identity unknown to everyone—

a member of the crime organization the Seven Sins founded by Ji Xinshui, Lust.

After being tricked by the fake invitation to the Genius Club, Ji Xinshui had honestly confessed all the criminal facts.

It was then that Angelica’s identity as Lust emerged.

But it’s unclear if it was because Ji Xinshui had a change of heart, as even tigers don’t eat their offspring, and didn’t confess the criminal facts about Ji Lin and Angelica; or if Angelica was truly innocent, having never participated in those crimes.

In any case, Angelica now, as the sole survivor of the Seven Sins still present in the world, was indeed clean and spotless, unaffected in both her personal and acting careers.

But Lin Xian didn’t see it that way.

He pondered, Ji Xinshui must have lied.

Even if Angelica hadn’t taken part in the killings, she most surely was involved in other tasks arranged by Ji Xinshui.

Otherwise, why bother having her join the Seven Sins just to make up the numbers?

Wouldn’t it be easier to just let her be a Hollywood actress?

Since Angelica could join the Seven Sins and be named “Lust,” that meant she couldn’t possibly be pletely clean.

Considering Ji Xinshui’s obsession with joining the Genius Club, and the identity of a Hollywood actress which enabled easy mingling in elite society and access to high-ranking officials…

Lin Xian speculated whether Angelica’s task arranged by Ji Xinshui could be related to gathering intelligence?

Murderous actions were sufficient with just Ji Lin’s brains; Angelica wasn’t needed for that.

But the advantage Angelica had, Ji Lin did not.

She was beautiful and stunning, a femme fatale that could be far more lethal to certain high-ranking men than a mystery novelist like Ji Lin could ever be.

Perhaps just with a smile or a glance, she could turn these tight-lipped high-profile figures into blathering Tmall Genies.

Of course, this was just a guess by Lin Xian.

But still…

It was necessary to stay cautious.

Just like now.

This remnant of the Seven Sins just so happened to stake out on him right after his award ceremony, at the moment when he was adorned with honor…

It was somewhat chilling.

Although in fact, Ji Xinshui and Ji Lin had mitted crimes, and it was reasonable for the law to sanction them—Lin Xian was merely a concerned citizen.

But from Angelica’s perspective…

He was indeed the indirect killer of her foster father and her half-brother of a different mother.

Lin Xian turned around to face Angelica directly.

Looking at her extended friendly right hand, he made no move,

“I think there’s nothing for us to talk about,” he said.

“Don’t be so tense, Lin Xian,” Angelica retracted her right hand, tucking both hands into the pockets of her coat,

“I’m not here to seek revenge on you.

Why so vigilant?

If I really wanted to kill you, you would have been dead just now.”

Lin Xian chuckled lightly,

“This isn’t Hollywood, Miss Angelica.

This isn’t your field as a female agent, nor are there so many foolish actors to follow your lead.”

“I am quite surprised that you would dare to e to China by yourself.

Even though there’s no evidence to prove your involvement in any crimes, that doesn’t mean you’re innocent, and everyone knows the truth.”

Angelica turned her head, smiling and shrugging,

“If you have the right heart, there’s no need to worry about the shadows.

What is there for me not to dare?

I brought back the ashes of Ji Lin and the old man to Brooklyn.

I had e to China twice in the past two months…

If I really felt guilty, I wouldn’t have dared to e at that time.”

…

Lin Xian didn’t say a word.

He really couldn’t guess what purpose this woman had in seeking him out.
