Since The Red Moon Appeared

Even in the daytime, the lights in the office are dimly lit.

Partition after partition divides most of the office into small boxes. In the middle of each box, there is an unconnected desktop computer and a telephone. All the people were busy, walking around, typing, talking on the phone, exchanging documents. Lu Xin's workstation is in the middle, and the best employee's reward pennant is hung on the partition.

After all the busy work in the morning, Lu Xin stood up straight and pinched his temples.

After staying in this environment for a long time, I always feel depressed and stuffy, not to mention there are always so many complicated things to deal with.

"Is Brother Lu busy now?"

A voice sounded beside Lu Xin, Lu Xin raised his head, and found that it was Lu Cheng, a young man newly arrived in the office. He was well-dressed, had short hair and had a sunny temperament. At this time, he had a bitter face and said : "The director arranged for me to sort out this batch of documents, but I can't make it clear. The time is running out. Brother Lu, can you... can you teach me?"

"Can."

Lu Xin smiled and agreed: "I'm fine right now."

"Thank you little brother Lu, you are really kind!"

With a grateful expression on his face, Sunshine hurried to Lu Xin's computer desk, one to teach and one to learn.

In the surrounding partitions, many dissatisfied eyes were cast, and there were some very low whispers.

"My job is tiring enough, and I have to teach others."

"Everyone has the same job, and they are not afraid of teaching others and being kicked out."

"..."

Lu Xin helped Lu Cheng organize the documents under the dissatisfied eyes of many people, and waved his hand in the sound of thanks from the other party.

Although everyone was very nervous in this oppressive office atmosphere, Lu Xin has always had his own principles in doing things. If he can help others, he will help. The red moon incident has changed the world, but his character is still the same. must have.

"Lu Xin, come here, the director will call you!"

Someone called from a distance.

"coming!"

Lu Xin put down the coffee, got up and walked to the director's office. Here, he saw the director who was so fat that his cheeks were hanging down. On the opposite sofa, there was a short-haired man wearing sunglasses and a decent suit. woman.

"Xiao Lu, there is a document here, you can help me take it to the corner cafe on Qingjiang Road now!"

The director didn't talk nonsense, and pointed to the file bag on the table.

To send the documents, it should be someone from the administrative team or the chores team. It is not their turn to do it.

But Lu Xin still didn't refuse, nodded and said, "Okay."

Then he picked up the document, nodded to the director and the short-haired woman on the sofa, and walked out.

As soon as he left the room, the director immediately changed his face to a smile, and said to the short-haired woman attentively: "Team Leader Chen, what you said has been done, don't worry, I won't ask or think too much, it's just that you talked to me just now. The project I'm talking about..."

"Rest assured, this item will not be given to you!"

The short-haired woman stood up, gently pulled down her sunglasses, and spoke softly.

The director was stunned for a moment, thinking that he heard it wrong, and then at this moment, he saw the pupil of this woman.

Her pupils seemed to be spinning, faintly red, as if they had turned into two red moons.

"Don't remember that I came here, and don't remember what he arranged for him to do!"

The short-haired woman spoke softly, her voice soft, then she put on her sunglasses and turned to go out.

The director fell into a moment of confusion, and after a few seconds, he woke up, as if nothing had happened, and continued to work.

...

...

Lu Xin was in the carriage of the high-speed train around the city, holding the handrail, dizzy and sleepy. Originally, the place where he got on the train was close to the starting station, and there was still a seat, but when he saw a pregnant woman getting on the train, he gave the seat to him. I got her and stood in the car for half an hour.

The lights in the carriage flickered slightly, and my sister, holding the pieced bear in her arms, crawled over along the roof of the carriage.

In front of Lu Xin, she hung upside down and swayed like a swing.

Lu Xin kept his eyes fixed, pretending to be watching the beautiful legs of a delicate girl in shorts with hip pockets beside him.

The younger sister was having more fun herself, the shaking became stronger and stronger, and there was a slight twisting sound in the carriage.

Fortunately, the train was moving very fast and swaying, and this twisted sound was covered up.

"Brother, look, that fat man is so stupid..."

My sister was playing like crazy, and suddenly pointed at a fat man who was standing and sleeping not far away and was still drooling, and smiled at Lu Xin.

"Do not talk to me……"

Lu Xin still forced himself to look at the beautiful legs attentively, and a faint voice came out of his teeth.

"I can't see you outside, let alone talk to you, I'll be treated as a lunatic..."

"Hey, boring!"

My sister deliberately teased Lu Xin. Seeing that he was not fooled, she felt a little bored.

"Then be careful yourself, there's something wrong with where you go this time!"

She said, and before Lu Xin could ask, she laughed "giggling" and ran along the carriage. When she passed by the fat man who was standing and sleeping, she suddenly put her hand on the fat man's face. He pinched it, then climbed to the distance and disappeared.

The fat man woke up suddenly and shouted, "Who is touching me?"

The people around looked at the fat man who was completely absent within one meter, with strange eyes.

Lu Xin also joined the crowd of onlookers and cast a mentally ill look at Fatty.

...

...

When getting off the car, Lu Xin found that it was close to the outer wall.

The buildings here have become somewhat dilapidated. You can see that the city wall, which is more than ten meters high, casts a deep shadow on the building. Although thirty years have passed, the wandering lunatics outside the city have already Most of them have been cleaned up, but people living in the city still dare not be careless. The focus of municipal work every year is to continue strengthening and repairing these tall city walls.

When he came to the corner coffee shop, he found that the environment was very dark.

The surrounding old buildings and bungalows seem to be empty, and there is no shadow in sight.

There is a lot of rubbish in front of the door, as if it was blown over by the wind, and no one has cleaned it for a long time.

Approaching here, I don't know why, there will be a feeling of depression.

Lu Xin subconsciously didn't like it here, but he had already agreed to the director, so he still took the file bag and walked in.

...

...

"The thirteenth subject has entered the target area!"

On a high-rise building not far from here, there are more than a dozen observers who have already placed various instruments. Around the high-rise building, there are some loaded guns and live ammunition. The fully armed soldiers are hidden in the dark, nervously raising the problem. everything around.

The short-haired woman was also among the office staff, and she was holding a document with black type on it:

"Target Code: Corner Cafe."

"Action purpose: To test the potential and specific ability of the observed person on the thirteenth to become a spiritual master."

"Potential risk: The cafe has been identified as a level 1 mental pollution area.

Specifically:

People close to the cafe will be attracted to it involuntarily.

People who have entered the cafe will die within three to five days, and the cause of death is mostly suicide.

According to analysis, should be polluted in the cafe, and even produced a serious depression. "

"..."

She put down the documents in her hand and asked the people around her, "Is the preparatory support ready?"

The staff nodded and pointed to the next room.

Through the glass partition of the two rooms, you can see a delicate girl in a foreign dress sitting like a puppet.

...

...

When Lu Xin entered the cafe, he felt a warm and lively feeling.

The street outside and the house looked empty and deserted.

But this cafe is full of people, and it even feels overcrowded.

All of them had smiles on their faces, some bowed their heads and had an intimate conversation, some sat alone by the window, drinking coffee while reading a book, some squinted and concentrated on enjoying a delicious sandwich, floating in the store A soothing and ancient music, the sun shines in from the window, making people in a trance, it seems to return to the world before the red moon catastrophe...

Lu Xin passed through the crowd, came to the front of the bar, and nodded to the waiter in a delicate apron behind the bar.

"I was asked to bring this document over here."

The director didn't say who to send it to, so it should be fine to send it to the bar.

"thanks."

The waiter didn't care at all, just thanked him with a smile, poured a cup of coffee, and pushed it in front of Lu Xin.

"this……"

Lu Xin wanted to say that he didn't plan to stay for coffee.

However, this coffee smelled quite fragrant, completely different from the cheap coffee I drank in the company.

"It's hard work for this trip, this is what I invited you to."

The waiter smiled, with a very comfortable kindness on his face.

Lu Xin's heart slowed a little, but he couldn't say anything to refuse for a while.

And then at this moment, his eyes froze slightly.

Behind the waiter's delicate apron, a thick and ugly tentacle suddenly stretched out and slowly stretched out in front of Lu Xin. At the top of the tentacle, the flesh slowly cracked, and suddenly a coin-sized black soft body slid into the coffee. In the middle, Lu Xin looked down, the soft body looked like an egg, and it looked like an eye, with black pupils looking at himself in the cup.

The coffee instantly became more fragrant, and every wisp of it had an amazing allure.

The waiter also smiled more kindly, and gently pushed the coffee in front of Lu Xin, signaling him to enjoy it.

"No thanks."

Lu Xin politely refused, as if he had found nothing, turned around and walked out.

When he reached the door, he looked back.

He saw that everyone in the store had stopped their movements, looking at him sluggishly.

He hurriedly turned around, his body stiffened, and he walked faster and faster.
