Chapter 104 Instructing Wade_1

```

After seeing Ding Yi, Lin Sen decided to add one more layer of insurance to Ding Yi's escape plan.

In fact, Lin Sen knew that it was unlikely for the plan to be executed, as the Trisolarans would absolutely not dare to assassinate him or Logic. But... there were some things that could still be prepared in advance. Perhaps everything was a cover for the real ultimate plan, or maybe the surface of the plan was its essence.

This layer of insurance was Wade, and Lin Sen immediately notified Wade to come to his office.

Over the years, Wade had been working on the underlying design of the escape supervision system. He rethought the entire system, even finding many flaws in Lin Sen's design and perfecting them one by one. For someone who was extremely strict in their thinking, no detail would be overlooked. If it was Wade's design, no one would be able to find flaws in it.

Soon, Wade arrived at Lin Sen's office. In the human world, Lin Sen's orders were followed the fastest; there was almost a blind worship of him in the human world now.

The door to the office was open, and Lin Sen sat on the sofa reading a children's comic, seemingly not noticing Wade's entrance.

Wade did not enter the room but gently knocked on the door, hoping to catch Lin Sen's attention, yet Lin Sen seemed not to notice.

Wade knew that Lin Sen must be trying to convey some information. He tried to think hard; for someone who hid their true intentions to the extreme, it was impossible for any fleeting glance to occur. He just glanced and everything appeared normal, yet all the information was captured in that brief moment.

Wade noticed that Lin Sen was reading a children's comic titled "The Octopus from Hokkaido." Remembering this information, Wade showed no emotion, only knocking slightly harder on the door.

Lin Sen, seeing Wade at the doorway, put down the children's comic and put it away, then he invited Wade in.

Wade had originally thought of Lin Sen as merely Logic's assistant, until Lin Sen's recent actions completely overturned Wade's perception of him.

Seeing Lin Sen, Wade greeted with a hint of a smile, "Your courage and strategy are greatly admirable. You are someone worthy of respect and trust."

Lin Sen, "Sorry, but trusting me is not a good thing; my job is actually deceit."

Wade, "Who isn't? Haven't we always been living in a world of deceit?"

Lin Sen, "Our life is filled with deceit, but even more so with trust. Some people should never be trusted, like me for example. Some can always be trusted, like children's comics, for instance. Sometimes comics are more real than reality.."

Wade, "Is that so? Indeed, comics can sometimes be more real than reality." Wade knew the information Lin Sen wanted to convey was on that comic book, the title "The Octopus from Hokkaido" related to this.

Wade didn't know Zhang Beihai, but as long as he remembered the words "The Octopus from Hokkaido," he would definitely think of Lin Sen's instructions when he encountered Zhang Beihai.

Some people can always be trusted, and Zhang Beihai was one of those people. This was the coded message, telling Wade to trust Zhang Beihai, as their ultimate goals aligned.

Lin Sen, "Alright, enough chit-chat. How's the escape supervision system coming along?"

Wade, "The design work for the escape supervision system you requested has been completed. Commander Chang Weisi has approved it and is preparing to organize manpower to develop the system, to be used not only by the Escape Fleet in deep space but potentially by the Space Force in the future as well."

Lin Sen, "I will be entering hibernation next. We do not know if I will die, but if I do, the Particle Accelerator spacecraft must continue. However, the future of humanity may face changes, and I hope you can protect Ding Yi and the others."

Wade seemed to understand Lin Sen's intentions somewhat. This protection was definitely not just on a surface level; it carried a deeper meaning, though he was not yet sure what it was.

Wade felt he should take the risk and ask further. On the surface, Wade maintained his signature respectful expression, but the curve of his mouth showed disdain:

```

"You trust me so much, is it necessary to protect a group of scientists? At most, the human government will only give up building new accelerators under tremendous social pressure. It seems unnecessary to protect them."

Lin Sen's hint was clear enough, not only should they not talk too much, but they also had to continue the cover-up.

"I believe you can see that although I have tremendous prestige now, once I am assassinated by a Sophon, everything will be irreversible.

"In the early stages, humans will indeed increase the production and construction of particle accelerators. If such investment is too high, it will consume the resources of the main space defense plan, and the most critical issue is that there is no end in sight.

"As the world economy declines sharply, more and more people will lose their jobs and income. Social dissatisfaction will accumulate, social conflicts will increase, and public grievances will grow.

"Eventually, the focus may be directed at Ding Yi and their accelerators. Never underestimate the madness of any era of humanity. They would rather destroy the accelerators, destroy our hope.

"This session of the PDC is trustworthy, but who knows when they will turn their weapons against us.

"I hope you can lead Ding Yi and the others. You are their mainstay. If you find that the PDC is targeting you, you will gather all the accelerator ships.

"I will instruct Rey Diaz to command the warships to protect you in the future. The construction of the Moon Base is also in preparation for building warships in the future."

Whether it is the PDC or Lin Sen, the future warship project is of utmost importance. This does not need to be hidden. In fact, when construction began on the Moon and many human elites were recruited, it became an open secret that warships would be built on the Moon.

Wade: "I can promise you, but the PDC won't agree to Rey Diaz commanding the warships to protect the accelerator fleet, will they?"

Lin Sen: "You need to remember, you are a wolf that never looks back. You need to contend with the PDC. The PDC can place Steel Mark Clan Executive Captains on all of Rey Diaz's warships, which is the maximum we agree to.

"The use of Thoughtcontrol is done under their supervision. As long as we do not harm humanity, warships are our best means of protection.

"Lose humanity, lose a lot, lose the nature of a beast, lose everything. The future is in your hands."

At this point, Wade fully understood Lin Sen's intentions. Lin Sen's hints were clear enough, possibly a code meant just for him.

A wolf that never looks back meant leading humanity in escape rather than contending with the PDC and coordinating with Rey Diaz's fleet. Yet Wade did not understand how humanity could escape if the Executive Captains were all from the Steel Mark Clan.

However, he trusted Lin Sen, and there must be a plan behind all of this. Also, "The Octopus of Hokkaido" must be hiding key information as well.

At this moment, Wade completely aligned himself with Lin Sen. Although they had only met twice, it felt like they had known each other a lifetime. As far as Wade was concerned, everything about him was concealed, believing that no one could see through him, but now Lin Sen had, after just two meetings.

Wade: "I understand. But what if you don't die? Will Ding Yi and the others still need protection?"

Lin Sen: "That would be a different plan. In that plan, you also play a key role."

Wade: "I would be glad to play that role."

Wade was always efficient and concise.

After seeing Wade, Lin Sen once again made his way to the space elevator. Lin Sen was preparing to go to the Moon Base to meet Rey Diaz.
