Since The Red Moon Appeared

"Crash..."

When Lu Xin escaped from the subway station, he saw chaos all around.

It seemed that there was no one in this block just now, but now there are countless black jeeps, and many people in military uniforms, who seem to have suddenly emerged from the ground, armed with live ammunition and heavy military boots. He approached this block, and quickly set up roadblocks, set up guns, and quickly blocked every road.

Indistinctly, one could even hear the sounds of chasing, capturing, and shooting. Lu Xin couldn't help but feel a little surprised. He didn't dare to neglect, he jumped quickly in the corner of the wall, and climbed over the wall of the apartment with broken windows. , run away.

Fortunately, no one seemed to think that someone would escape from the wall, and he was so fast that he didn't attract the attention of others.

Lu Xin used his hands and feet together, his body was like a flexible spider, he climbed several hundred meters away in one go, on a ten-story building, and then jumped up high and crouched on the edge of the building. I turned my head to look in the direction of the subway station, and I saw that every road was full of black figures, including the coffee shop and the subway station, the entire area was already surrounded by water.

This made him a little scared.

"Brother, how are you going to thank me?"

The younger sister's voice rang, and not far from Lu Xin, she hugged the pieced together bear and squatted not far away.

Aya's messy hair was loose and her eyes lit up slightly, which was a sign of her unusual satisfaction.

"thanks?"

Lu Xin, who was undecided, was angry: "I'm still hitting you, I..."

But when the words came to his lips, thinking of the danger just now, he couldn't help but soften his spine and said, "Thank you..."

"You are my brother and I am your sister. What do you say thank you?"

The younger sister was smiling, her hair was falling down, covering most of her face, with a strange cuteness.

Just as Lu Xin was about to praise her, she suddenly raised her head, looking expectantly: "You better give me a toy!"

"Do you want toys again?"

Lu Xin looked at the little bear in her arms and said helplessly, "Isn't it there?"

"Cubs are so cute!"

The younger sister hugged the little bear tightly and said, "But the little bear can't speak!"

Her voice was a little excited, and she described it carefully: "I want to be able to talk..."

Lu Xin said perfunctorily, "I'll go back and buy you one with an electronic sound."

"Electronic sound is not fun..."

The little sister's smile was a little weird: "Not only can I scream, I want the kind that can scream, the worse the better..."

Lu Xin said, "Have you heard of screaming chickens?"

The younger sister was shocked, she was silent for a while, and suddenly said: "I won't play with you."

"Hey you..."

Just as Lu Xin was about to speak, he saw his sister suddenly jumped up. The small figure, like a nimble kitten, jumped directly from the upstairs. When he hurriedly stretched out his head to look, he saw that he just landed outside the building. On the horizontal wire, the surrounding wind was blowing, she swayed gently with the wire, shook her head to Lu Xin, and said with a smile: "Brother, you have to be careful, someone is staring at you..."

Lu Xin was a little wary: "Who?"

"I won't tell you..."

The younger sister smiled, climbed along the wire to the opposite side, and quickly disappeared into a broken window.

"This girl..."

Lu Xin looked down along the tall building, a little dizzy: "you're gone, how do I get down?"

...

...

Keeping vigilance in his heart, Lu Xin jumped from the opposite side of the apartment building to the next upstairs, and then climbed down the dilapidated corridor, layer by layer. When approaching the downstairs, he deliberately went around more After a few bends, and along the crooked telephone pole, the broken house with only one wall left, etc., came to a street a few hundred meters away, and crept out.

He deliberately adjusted his clothes, put his hands in his pockets, and prepared to mix into the crowd naturally.

"Get in the car, I'll treat you to coffee!"

But as soon as he took a step, he suddenly heard a voice say.

Lu Xin was startled, turned around abruptly, and saw a woman leaning against a jeep.

It was a woman with short hair in a casual suit. She wore a pair of huge brown sunglasses on her face. She was thin and strong, with a wild temperament. Her high heels seemed to have a sharper aura, and even the dark jeep behind her looked like an iron monster, sturdy and ferocious.

Drink coffee?

Lu Xin was taken aback, and immediately thought of what his sister had just said. He was twenty-three years old, and no woman had ever asked him out, especially the woman in front of him would definitely not like her type. So she's one of those people who surrounded the subway station just now? Maybe she was already staring at me? Ask me for coffee, it's not like being hostile...

Although it didn't seem normal to meet such a woman to ask him to drink coffee suddenly, Lu Xin didn't dare to refuse.

So he whispered, "Can I change it to something else? I don't want to drink coffee now."

The short-haired woman seemed a little surprised by Lu Xin's calmness, but she obviously saw many such people.

Thinking of what happened to Lu Xin just now, she smiled: "Well, let's go to the bar!"

Saying that, she naturally opened the car door for Lu Xin.

Lu Xin sat in the co-pilot honestly. Although he was so old and had no experience of riding a car several times, he didn't look around in the car, just sat in the co-pilot honestly. , without even peeking at the woman driving.

The woman also didn't speak in a hurry, just focused on driving the car.

They drove for about 20 minutes, and the car had entered a sparsely populated street. The woman stopped the car and led Lu Xin through a dark underground passage to the door of a bar with an iron fence.

The bar had not yet opened, and the light was dark and silent.

After the sleepy waiter helped them open the door, he didn't ask a word, put a bottle of wine and two glasses on the table, and went back to make up for his sleep. In a huge bar, only Lu Xin was left. And this woman, empty.

"My name is Chen Jing, and I have no ill will towards you, but I admit that what happened to you today was arranged by me."

The short-haired woman spoke frankly, and placed a green leather certificate in front of Lu Xin. Lu Xin glanced at her and learned that she was from the main city of Qingcheng and was the highest-level clerk of the Qingcheng Inspection Hall. Looking up at her, the people in the main city are not what people in the satellite city can imagine, especially since she has such a high status, it is even more strange to invite her to drink.

Thinking of the documents that the director inexplicably sent him, and the monsters he encountered in the cafe, Lu Xin knew that everything was wrong, and he was suddenly arranged by someone to encounter such a terrifying thing. Xin saw the protruding part of the clothes on the woman's waist. Knowing that it was a gun, she still hung her head and said, "Why?"

"Let me explain it routinely first."

Chen Jing didn't say much about this issue, bit off the stopper and poured two glasses of wine.

"I belong to a department that deals with abnormal affairs, specializing in dealing with pollution incidents in the high-walled city."

Lu Xin blinked, obviously unable to react to such words.

Chen Jing pushed a glass of wine in front of Lu Xin and said, "You can understand us as: official."

Lu Xin understood at once.

Chen Jing continued: "After the Red Moon Incident, the reorganization of the major cities and satellite cities, the handling and annihilation of the lunatics outside the city, the resistance of the Knights of the Wilderness and the spiritual sects, the construction of high walls, and the usual repairs, It's all about our people."

"And now, we are mainly dealing with pollution incidents in the main city and the five satellite cities!"

"Abnormal event?"

Lu Xin raised his head and glanced at her.

"Yes, it's a bizarre incident beyond ordinary people's understanding, just like what you encounter in a coffee shop."

Chen Jing nodded, took out a document, pushed it in front of Lu Xin, and said, "You can take a look."

When Lu Xin saw the title page of the document, the word "confidential" was printed.

He opened it slowly, and on the first page, he saw lines of printed text, as well as a lot of data.

Target number: D-level special pollution source - 036

Target Level: Level 1

Infection level: low (contact infection/infection rate 90%/deep infection rate 70%)

Growth Potential: Advanced

Danger level: low

Target characteristics: The target is a first-level spiritual monster, which can infect any living body that has come into close contact with it. Does not have the ability to infect from distance. It can be eliminated by destroying the parasites of spiritual monsters. Parasites are still in the category of ordinary people and can be damaged by physical attacks. According to the current observations, the source of infection does not possess high intelligence, and will only repeat everything that was done before being infected, and simply communicate.

Special cleaning means: none

...

...

While Lu Xin was looking at the document, Chen Jing slowly lit a cigarette.

She said slowly: "The Red Moon incident has turned more than 70% of the world's people into lunatics. Those of us who survived can only live in the main city and satellite cities protected by high walls, but in fact, Even if they survived, they are not necessarily normal, and there are also many who have had mental aberrations, and they will have an impact on people or things around them."

"Such a situation, we call it pollution!"

"Pollution?"

Lu Xin raised his head when he heard this familiar but suddenly unfamiliar word.

After the Red Moon Incident, due to the collapse of civilization, the rupture of order, the destruction of countless chemical plants, power stations, etc., and the leakage of waste, many traces of pollution appeared in this world, especially outside the high-walled city, even if Thirty years have passed, and many places have not improved. The residents of the high-walled city are of course no strangers to pollution, but the pollution that this woman is talking about seems to be different.

"Yes, it is pollution."

Chen Jing nodded and repeated it, "Just like a pollution source in the ordinary sense, it will radiate the surrounding and affect the people around, causing them to have the same symptoms, similar to the plague, but this pollution is more mysterious. , more terrifying."

"The coffee shop you entered today is one of them. Before today, it has contaminated fifty-two people!"

"..."

"if……"

Lu Xin was a little frightened by this number. He tried to digest Chen Jing's words and made a good gesture:

"What happens if it is contaminated?"

"I'll get sick!"

Chen Jing's answer is very simple, and it seems that he has answered it too many times, and it seems a little mechanized:

"Ordinary pollution will make people's bodies sick, while spiritual pollution will make people's minds sick!"

"The consequences of getting sick are different, and some people will experience intense depression and commit suicide when they can't bear it!"

"Some will make people lose their minds and attack people around them frantically!"

"Some will make people lose the ability to communicate with everything around them..."

"There are also strong thoughts that make people want to hurt themselves..."

"..."

"Simply put, the source of pollution will give birth to a contagious mental illness!"
