This volume, due to the single update format, took nearly two months to complete. In fact, reading it all at once would give the impression of a fast pace, but because of the infrequent updates, reading one update a day might feel a bit scattered.

The single update format was also unavoidable; there were indeed some uncontrollable factors. That's why I advised everyone at the end of the previous volume to let it sit, let the volume sit, or even wait until it's finished before reading.

So, now there's only the final volume left.

According to the plan, *Genius Club* will have its main story completed on October 3rd, and then there will be three *Postscripts Filling the Holes* to fill in the plot holes that weren't filled in the main story. That will be the complete end of this book.

A complete work must have a story that ends well. You can rest assured when it comes to filling in the holes and a satisfactory ending.

Writing until now.

2.7 million words.

There are indeed many feelings, and many things I want to say to everyone, but it's about to end soon, so I won't say much here. Let's talk together in the completion speech.

The map is unrolled, and the dagger is revealed.

Finally, I still need to take two days off—don't reach for the knives yet! Hear my defense!

First of all, I wish you all a happy Mid-Autumn Festival. It's the Mid-Autumn Festival, and I really need to spend time with my family.

Secondly, it's the last volume. Although it's not long, I need to organize many details to avoid missing any loose ends.

Of course, the above two reasons are probably not convincing enough.

Actually, there is another important reason, that is, the author is going to deal with a [big event]. This big event is also very good [good news] for all readers.

Thanks to everyone's support, this book has one good news after another, and the author can't wait to share it with you.

Taking two days off is also to prepare for this matter. When it is revealed to everyone, everyone will definitely forgive me.

Because, this is a great testament to our joint efforts!

So…

Dear readers, please grant me leave! (Kowtow)

[Rest on the 17th and 18th, resume updates on September 19th, and then update all the way to the end without taking any more leave.]

Thank you for your support!

So, see you at six o'clock the day after tomorrow—

Volume 8, the final volume, *Fireworks*, please look forward to it!
