Genius Club.

Chapter 507 Dance of the Century
Goo-doo, goo-doo, goo-doo.

CC sat on a chair at the edge of the dance floor, holding a glass of red wine in his hand and gulping down the wine.

She already couldn't remember which cup it was...

It’s not that this red wine is really delicious.

But she felt that if she didn't eat and drink to make up for the cost after paying such an expensive ticket, it would be a real loss!
She has already eaten a lot of snacks and fruits.

But after a quick calculation, this thing is far less expensive than the ticket price. Even if you eat till your stomach is full, you won't get your money back.

On the contrary, the high-end red wine here looks very expensive. If you finish a whole bottle... you can definitely drink back the money you paid for the ticket.

I don't know what's so good about this thing...

CC felt his cheeks getting hot.

In short.

Not as good as Coke.

She turned her head and looked at the corner of the conference room, where Lin Xian, wearing a gorilla mask, was chatting with Einstein.

The two seemed to be having a good chat, gesticulating here and there. Einstein was also very interested in what King Kong said, listening attentively with his head tilted like a primary school student, nodding from time to time.

“How funny.”

CC was amused by this funny scene. A dimple appeared at the corner of her mouth, revealing her cute little fangs. With her blushing cheeks, she looked particularly charming under the colorful laser lights.

At this time.

A handsome man dressed as a werewolf came over, bowed slightly to CC who was holding a glass of red wine, and greeted politely:
"Beautiful vampire lady, may I ask you to dance with me?"

The music on the dance floor was loud and intense, filled with exciting hormones.

however……

CC immediately tightened his lips and shook his head:
"I'm sorry, I don't want to dance."

CC had never been to a dance party, so naturally she didn't know how to say no at a dance party. She just spoke her mind directly.

"Oh fine."

Brother Werewolf was also a gentleman, and even though CC’s answer was indeed a bit rude, he did not complain and retreated back to his companions.

His companion, a fat mummy wrapped in bandages, was surprised:

"I didn't expect you to be rejected. I'm really surprised. This should be the first time you've been rejected at the dance, right?"

Brother Wolf nodded.

This is the most high-end dance party in Manhattan. He must have good conditions to be here. In terms of appearance, he is a recognized handsome man, not inferior to models and actors.

He was indeed surprised to be rejected directly this time:
"That vampire lady said she didn't want to dance."

"Hahahaha, how is that possible!"

The fat mummy hugged the werewolf's shoulders and laughed:
"This is a Halloween party! Would anyone who doesn't want to dance come here? People who don't want to dance would have stayed at home watching TV and eating cake...would they still put on such elaborate makeup and come here to be a spectator?"

"why?"

Brother Wolf tilted his head:

"Then why did she say she didn't want to dance?"

"hey-hey."

The fat mummy chuckled:
"Isn't the answer simple? Let's just stop bothering her and find someone else to dance with. Obviously..."

"[She just doesn't want to dance with you. To be more precise, she doesn't want to dance with anyone else. The vampire lady only wants to dance with one person, and she is waiting for him.]"

……

Corner of the guild hall.

Einstein was pulled away by the colorful killing horse and drowned in the dance floor.

Lin Xian stared at the address on the small note.

It appears that this location was Einstein's private farm, located in the suburbs of Brooklyn, further west than the orphanage where CC lived as a child.

Perhaps, hidden within this are the secrets and truths that you are eager to know!
11 month 5 day.

Lin Xian folded the note again and put it in his coat pocket.

Einstein just said that he would go to this farm on November 11th and wait for him there from morning to night.

Today is the evening of October 10st.

In five days at most, he would meet Einstein again for a deeper exchange.

This farm...could it be the original gathering place of the Genius Club?

Lin Xian still had some expectations.

He straightened his clothes, brushed off the chalk dust on his body, adjusted the gorilla mask on his head, and looked out at the crazy and noisy dance floor.

Hundreds of demons and monsters are wriggling here.

Even though Lin Xian had danced so many ballroom dances, he couldn't understand what type of dance these monsters were doing.

Today was his first time attending a Halloween party, and it could be said that it opened the door to a new world.

"Let's go find CC first. She's probably full."

Push through the crowd.

Return to the buffet table area.

Lin Xian saw from a distance CC sitting there alone, holding a glass of red wine and gulping down the glass.

?

A question mark popped up over Lin Xian’s head.

No, sis.

That's wine! Not Coke!
Other people drink red wine by taking a sip, but this person really drinks it as if it were water... Even though the alcohol content of red wine is indeed not high, quantitative changes will inevitably lead to qualitative changes.

CC is just a 19-year-old girl, how can she drink like that?

He quickly stepped forward, took the wine glass from CC's hand, and placed it on the white tablecloth:

"I haven't seen you for a while, and you drank so much. You must have starved to death in your previous life."

"No way."

CC smiled with her rosy face, revealing her little fangs and dimples:
"I'm waiting for you here."

For a while.

The flush of alcohol and the spinning lights on the dance floor made this pale, bloodstained vampire look somewhat charming.

"You really have drunk too much."

Lin Xian was a little worried:

"Can you still dance?"

"Of course you can!"

CC stood up from his seat, spun three times on the spot, and then stood up straight:

"Look, it has no effect at all!"

Lin Xian nodded.

indeed.

The innate holy body of space flight is truly terrifying.

"Oh don't worry, how could I get drunk?"

CC grabbed Lin Xian's arm and ran to the dance floor:

"The purpose of our coming here is to dance. I still know the priorities. If we delay dancing because of drinking, it will be a big loss!"

"You are suitable to be an accountant."

Lin Xian smiled helplessly:

"If you are an accountant, you will never lose money."

In the eyes of the first generation of piles and poor CC, there are only two things in this world:

Things that make a loss, and things that don’t make a loss.

……

As one piece of music ended, another strange and terrifying piece of music started.

"CC, what dance can you perform?" Lin Xian asked.

"Zombie Dance!"

"WTF?"

Lin Xian, who prides himself on being a good dancer, was stunned:
"Zombie dance, what is this?"

“Isn’t a zombie dance just a zombie dance?”

CC winks:

"It's Halloween, so of course we have to do the zombie dance! Come on, let me do it for you!"

The horror music gradually turns cheerful.

CC took a step back and began to get into the state, his whole body becoming stiff and mechanical.

Then, following the beat of the music, she began to imitate the movements of a zombie, walking and swaying, with her head shaking slowly and her limbs being jerky and clumsy, full of horror and mystery... but coupled with CC's cute, smiling face, there was a special contrasting beauty.

Lin Xian was amused by this zombie-like performance.

Looking around...

as predicted.

Everyone around seemed to be dancing the zombie dance, each one more funny and terrifying than the last, giving Lin Xian the feeling of having strayed into the world of Cthulhu.

but.

This is probably the unique atmosphere of Halloween. As a foreigner, Lin Xian naturally cannot understand it, but he chooses to respect it.

"Can't you dance?"

CC really likes dancing. Now she is a dancer with a genuine smile on her face. She dances over and looks up at Lin Xian:

"In the United States, any child can do the zombie dance."

"Excuse me."

Lin Xian shrugged:

"This is really hard for me. I really don't know how to do the zombie dance."

"Then I'll teach you!"

CC took Lin Xian's hands:

"The zombie dance is very simple, just follow me!"

"Forget it."

Lin Xian shook his head and refused immediately, deciding not to learn this kind of dance.

"Hey, learn it!"

CC held onto Lin Xian's hand and wouldn't let go, laughing as she dragged him into the dance floor:

"It's very simple. You're so smart, you'll definitely be able to learn it in no time!"

Lin Xian looked at CC, whose cheeks were flushed and seemed to be a little drunk:

"You seem a little excited."

"No, I just like dancing. Every time I dance, I feel very happy. Come on, come on—"

"[Today I will teach you the zombie dance. When we have the chance, you can also teach me other dances!]"

Through the hole on the gorilla mask, Lin Xian looked at the smiling vampire CC.

this moment……

It really made him a little dazed.

600 years later, on August 2624, 8, at the end of the world, he did teach CC how to dance the Face Village tap dance.

It seems to be a closed loop of fate.

Hundreds of years ago, on Halloween, October 1952, 10, the starting point of everything, CC took her hand and taught herself the zombie dance.

CC is still the same CC that was built thousands of years ago;

Lin Xian is still the time traveler Lin Xian;
Different...

It seemed there was only time and dancing.

"alright."

Lin Xian is a soft-hearted person.

Besides, CC was drunk and couldn't refuse the invitation, so he accepted it reluctantly.

CC was very happy to hear Lin Xian agreed.

With the beat of the music, CC taught Lin Xian how to imitate a zombie, how to keep his body stiff, how to keep his head still but his body moving...

But I was surprised to find out!
Lin Xian is simply a genius!

You will understand it at once and learn it as soon as you hear it!
It only took less than a few minutes for Lin Xian to completely master the zombie dance!
"You are so talented, Lin Xian!"

CC Open your eyes:

"You are simply a genius!"

"Okay."

Lin Xian has already started to dance the zombie dance, and with the help of the gorilla mask with frowning eyebrows, glaring eyes and a bloody mouth, he blends in perfectly with the environment and becomes a member of the dancing group of demons and monsters.

He truly realized that the mask was a really good thing.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have the face to perform such an unattractive dance... It's really not an idol burden, it can only be said to be a cultural difference.

"My dancing talent is still a little behind yours."

Lin Xian looked at the vampire in front of him:
"Your dancing talent is top notch... not just dancing talent."

"Ah? Lin Xian? What did you say?"

CC came over and shouted:

"The music was too loud, I couldn't hear it clearly!"

"Nothing said."

Lin Xian smiled slightly:
"I mean, you're a great dancer, too."

……

The Halloween party ended in the early hours of the morning.

Seeing the hour and minute hands on the clock coincide at 12 o'clock, Lin Xian was not worried; after all, it was early morning US time, which was only noon in Dragon Country time, so there was no risk of CC dissipating.

only……

Dissipation risk no.

CC encountered other risks——

She was drunk and passed out; she lay on Lin Xian's shoulder, dazed and sleepy.

"You..."

Lin Xian didn't know whether to laugh or cry:

"You can't use an abacus to calculate every time you eat just because you were used to being poor, right?"

"Now that we have money, we don't have to worry about whether it's worth it or not, or whether we lose money or not. Happiness and the enjoyment of food are far more important than the feeling of being full."

"You look like a starving ghost. You really remind me of VV. You eat every meal as if it were your last."

"VV?"

CC drunkenly opened his hazy eyes:

"Who is VV?"

"A dog." Lin Xian said.

"Oh."

CC lost interest, closed his eyes and continued to sleep.

Lin Xian had no choice but to help CC walk out of the venue and prepare to take a taxi back to the Empire State Building Hotel.

"Hey! Gorilla!"

At the door, I just happened to meet Einstein and the colorful Shamatte who opened the car door.

After the chat just now, Einstein's mood was indeed much better. There was a lot of chalk dust on his body, and a happy and relaxed smile on his face.

The Shamatte came over, patted Lin Xian on the shoulder, and looked at the drunk CC next to him:

"Oh, what luck, gorilla, it's going to be a great night!"

Lin Xian looked at the other person's head, which had already shaken off the chalk dust:

"My Little Pony, can you give me another rainbow?"

"Hahahahahaha!!"

With a familiar and hearty laugh, Shamatte turned his head and looked at Einstein:

"See, I told you I like this guy! What's his name?"

"Douglas," Einstein smiled.

"very good."

Shamatte held Lin Xian's right hand:

"Douglas, see you later. Einstein admires you very much. I'm sure we'll have another chance to meet. Well... we won't disturb your wonderful night."

After saying that, he walked towards the vintage car and left with Einstein.

Einstein took the wool felt hat from the driver and waved it at Lin Xian:

"Douglas, I'll be waiting for you at the farm on November 11th."

Then he got in the car, and the white-glove driver closed the door, started the car, and disappeared into the bright traffic.

Lin Xian waved his hand to stop a taxi and returned to the Empire State Building Hotel.

……

From the moment he got off the taxi, CC fell into a deep sleep, sleeping like a dead pig, as if he had really become a zombie.

Fortunately, she was very light and Lin Xian could carry her easily.

Walk into their suite.

Lin Xian pushed open CC's bedroom door, gently placed her on the bed, and covered her with a quilt.

After confirming that the windows were closed and the electric heater was turned on, Lin Xian retreated to the bedroom door and closed it:

"Goodnight, CC."

thump.

The wooden door closed quietly.

……

……

……

Bedroom bed.

CC slowly opened his eyes.

She frowned and let out a breath through her nose:

"Humph."

He twisted his mouth and snorted:
"Good night."
