Since The Red Moon Appeared

Chapter 35: Analysis Report 041

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“The study of the special corruption source 041 has not been conclusive so far, and the research department has only given some clues!”

Han Bing looked very serious when she spoke about these things.

Even her somewhat soft voice seemed a little more rational and powerful.

“After in-depth research and investigation, we found that the special corruption source 041 (1), the corpse of the wilderness wanderer Qin Ran dug out from the bottom of the lake, matches Cui Wang’s DNA tissue which was collected at the place where he was drawn and quartered. Special corruption source 041 (2), the corpse that turned into Cui Wang’s appearance after dying, matches the DNA of the hair collected in Cui Wang’s house!

“The interrogation of the employees of Square Transportation Company and Qin Ran’s cohabitants revealed that Qin Ran came from the wilderness and his age is unknown. From his appearance, he looks to be between 30 and 40.

“Among all the employees in his company, four people knew him personally. Among these four people, the one who knew him the longest knew him for three years. After interrogation, it was found that these four people claimed to know Qin Ran for a very long time, but they could only accurately describe their impression of him for the past year.

“On the day of the crime, three men followed Qin Ran to do the deal. Their statements had no clear abnormalities, and they all said that it was indeed Qin Ran who killed Cui Wang. They even helped to deal with the body… But someone mentioned that after that incident, Qin Ran’s appetite suddenly increased by a lot. Even though his appetite was already very big previously, they also felt that the things he ate during that period of time were too ridiculous…”

Hearing this, Lu Xin remembered when he first met “Qin Ran”. He was unusually greedy for food as if he couldn’t get enough. He asked, “So, what can this mean?”

“At the moment, not much can be determined. In fact, many times, the statements don’t mean anything!”

Han Bing explained, “For some psyche mutants, tampering with memories is not a difficult task!”

“Well…”

Lu Xin froze after hearing that. Memories could also be tampered with?

How crazy!

“Yes, and because of that, the research department gave a guess!”

Han Bing continued, “They believe that the initial key character Qin Ran was just someone who was corrupted. Moreover, he was heavily corrupted. His true identity was Cui Wang, but he did not know and thought that he was Qin Ran. Meanwhile, the ability of the special corruption source 041 was to capture, devour, and assimilate other psyche bodies and create another copy of itself!

“However, it’s just a guess. The research department didn’t sign the confirmation of the final results and is not responsible for it!”

“Well…”

It took Lu Xin a long moment to accept this explanation, and then he couldn’t help but ask, “Then, why did he initially seek revenge on Qin Ran?

“Also, there wasn’t anything unusual about Qin Ran until his death…”

“This is exactly the reason why the research department doesn’t dare to come to a definite conclusion!”

Han Bing replied, “But there are several directions that can be used for reference!

“One of them is that the psyche bodies that were captured at the beginning still have their own resistance, so they hate the true corruption source!

“The one who influenced passers-by to seek revenge on Qin Ran might not necessarily be the true corruption source. They could be psyche bodies that have already been captured by the corruption source but are not completely integrated. The usage of these psyche bodies to affect passers-by is another ‘hunting’ method the corruption source uses!

“Second, every psyche body is not perfect, just as every person has their own flaws!

“The psyche bodies’ nature will have the primitive desire to grow and protect themselves. But this condition is unstable. Sometimes, the psyche bodies themselves will behave in a way contrary to their essential desire, such as strong self-destructive tendencies and self-hatred tendencies.

“In the past, there have been cases of psyche mutants who have produced the ability to create a psyche monster that will devour itself!

“Third, it’s possible that the Qin Ran we saw was only a hatchling of some sort…”

“Hatchling?”

“Yeah!”

Han Bing explained methodically, “One thing that can be determined today is that it was because of the psyche corruption source ‘Qin Ran’ that caused a deep corruption to Cui Wang, which caused Cui Wang to become Qin Ran. This change wasn’t only in appearance but even in memory and self-awareness. But until the end, when he met the true corruption source itself, only cognitive confusion appeared…

“So, the research department has a guess that the Qin Ran Cui Wang became was just a hatchling. As time passed, he wouldn’t only completely turn into Qin Ran, he would even remember more, such as what form he was in and why he turned into this form!

“Unfortunately, at that time, because the city guard opened fire unintentionally, we lost this research target.

“However, the research is still going on. Maybe we can find some useful clues from other cases.”

Listening to her tone, there have actually been many similar incidents before?

Lu Xin thought of the disasters that happened in the few surrounding satellite cities he had heard of previously.

Before officially dealing with them, Lu Xin even thought that his condition was one of a kind and something others would never understand. When he first met the monsters in the cafe, he thought he had seen a ghost. But as he dealt with them more and more, he discovered that many psyche corruption events had probably happened in this city. It was just that the truth was probably hidden.

“Are there any others?” contemporary romance

Lu Xin saw a colleague wanting to come in and smoke outside the stairway. But when they saw him on the phone, they quietly left.

So, he took the initiative to ask Han Bing and speed up the call process.

“Further research and analysis still need time. If there are results, we will inform you then!”

Han Bing’s soft voice added, “But in any case, Mr. Lu Xin has made a great contribution. Your 30,000-yuan compensation has been transferred to your account. In addition, Team Leader Chen Jing also asked her superiors and applied for an additional six thousand yuan for you!”

Lu Xin nodded. “Oh!”

“In addition to the remuneration, Major Chen has arranged a comprehensive test for you. It should be soon, you should prepare!”

“Test? What test?”

“It’s a comprehensive assessment of your state and abilities.”

Han Bing slightly paused and then added, “Before the official recruitment, according to the usual practice, there will be such a test!”

“Official recruitment?”

Lu Xin’s heartbeat accelerated, and he said lightly, “Oh!”

“Also, in this incident, we heard that you’ve used your gun. You can replenish the used bullet at the local Security Office!”

“Even this is taken into account?”

Lu Xin was somewhat surprised, and he hurriedly said, “Thank you, thank you. I’ve caused inconvenience for you!”

After conveying official matters, Han Bing also became polite. “No, no, you’ve worked hard…”

“No, no, no, you’ve worked hard…”

“No, no, you’ve worked hard…”

After hanging up, Lu Xin calmly smoked a cigarette at the stairway.

He leaned on the railing, frowning. The smoke faintly dispersed, and he seemed to be thinking about the bizarre logic in these corruption events.

Then, he suddenly threw the cigarette away and jumped lightly. “Thirty-six thousand…”

He was about to leave elegantly, but then he came back, put out the cigarette on the ground, and put it back into his cigarette case.

Then, he jumped lightly again. “I’m becoming an official employee!”

He let out a deep breath to remain calm before walking towards the office in a relaxed manner.

Although he tried his best to control it, he involuntarily walked in a way that showed he was an official worker who no longer lacked money!
