Chapter 29: Logic Chain and Core Factor

    Soon, the support team staying outside also sent people in.


    Wearing thick protective clothing and ss field shields, they reached theke.


    Two long boxes enclosed in threeyers of ss protection were carried over. Then, Qin Ran and Cui Wang’s bodies were ced into the boxes, and a ck cloth was put over it. It looked like two crystal coffins.


    During this period, almost nobody spoke.


    That was because everyone could not exin the bizarre situation in front of them.


    After sheltering the two corpses, they sent people to take the detection instruments which the investigation team had been using down to the bottom of theke. They detected gradually and were unusually careful, seeming to be probing for any psyche residue.


    Meanwhile, Cheng Hui and the two other members of his investigation team put on ss helmets. After the preliminary discussion and evaluation by those in white cloaks, they stopped temporarily on the spot and rested withouting into contact with anyone.


    They had to undergo a series of tests as well as a mental evaluation to confirm that there was no real corruption.


    Meanwhile, in this process, Lu Xin was wrapped in a thick nket and sat by theke like a victim as he watched.


    The sound of helicopter propellers turning in the air was heard, and two beams of light shone down from the sky.


    Chen Jing, dressed in military uniform, walked out from the cabin. Wearing ck sunsses and high military boots, she walked towards Lu Xin and said, “No matter what, the clean-up has beenpleted.”


    She paused for a moment before adding intentionally, “I will apply for the special schrship for you.”


    Lu Xin felt a warm sensation in his heart.


    However, he still couldn’t get rid of the confusion in his mind and asked, “Then, this…”


    “Someone will be designated to conduct the analysis and investigation.”


    Chen Jing looked in the direction of the crystal coffin which was being moved into the car and said, “Dealing with psyche corruption incidents, we often meet unexinable things. However, as long as we catch some of the traces and go through detailed investigation and research, most of the time we will be able to find the logic… I believe that this incident is no exception.”


    Lu Xin felt reassured after hearing that.


    “In fact, we’re not all clueless.”


    Chen Jing suddenly said, “I heard the investigation team report the entire incident. You heard the fish talk?”


    Lu Xin was slightly stunned. He suddenly remembered the insane image when all the fish began to scream “Qin Ran killed me. I will take your life.”


    He was slightly nervous and nodded.


    “Fish can’t talk.”


    Chen Jing said, “I didn’t hear anything like that from the channel, so that should be a hallucination caused by the source of corruption. But it’s still a good entry point. For example, the fish shouting that Qin Ran killed them…


    “So, which Qin Ran is the one who needs to pay for their lives?”


    “Hmm…”


    Chen Jing’s words caused a feeling of numbness on Lu Xin’s scalp.


    He seemed to have understood something but couldn’t really grasp it.


    “Let’s go.”


    Chen Jing gave way and said to him, “There’s still some work to be done.”


    “Alright!”


    Lu Xin stood up obediently and walked forward beside her.


    Chen Jing didn’t bring Lu Xin to the helicopter. This caused him to be slightly disappointed. He wanted to sit in the helicopter.


    Near the barrier tape, Chen Jing asked for a car to be driven over, then she drove it off to the city center with Lu Xin. Soon, they reached a building that was old but very sturdy. Lu Xin looked up and saw people wearing green uniforms walking in and out of the building. The building was the Security Office building of the satellite city.


    Chen Jing walked in familiarly and took the elevator to the seventh floor. Then, she led Lu Xin to an empty meeting room and said, “You take a rest here first as I settle something. I wille overter to have a chat with you.”


    Lu Xin sat down obediently and watched Chen Jing walk out.


    The meeting room seemed to have been prepared beforehand. It was very quiet both inside and outside the meeting room, and nobody walked past. A cup of coffee, some chocte, and a te of colorful sweets was ced on the table.


    Lu Xin saw that nobody was around and sneakily took a sip of the coffee. He felt that it was a little bitter and not as good as the instant coffee he drank in his office. Therefore, he dumped in a few cubes of sweets as well as cream. It tasted much better after that and could roughly match up to the coffee he usually drank in the office.


    He had once heard the director of the office say how coffee, tea, and sugar were considered good things that everyone else wanted.


    However, for chocte and sweets, he wasn’t interested. Therefore, his sister took a bite instead.


    “I love it…”


    She hugged all the chocte and sweets to her.


    “Then, you can finish all of them!”


    Lu Xinughed at her sister, very thankful for her actions that day.


    “Alright, I will eat everything!” His sister would definitely not hold back.


    Meanwhile, when Lu Xin was waiting in the room, Chen Jing had made the necessary arrangements.


    That included a fully equipped team, a car meant to send the psyche mutants, and two tempered ss boxes to the investigation center. The team detained everyone in the Square Transportation Company and interrogated them. They also gathered as much manpower as they could to search for Qin Ran and Cui Wang’s traces.


    The first thing that was produced was a report.


    It was a test report of some residue tissue collected by the investigation team at the ce where Cui Wang’s body was dumped.


    The test results showed only one line: This tissue is confirmed to be a match for Qin Ran (041st source of corruption at the bottom of theke).


    When Chen Jing walked into the room with the documents, the te was already empty. Lu Xin was cleaning up the wrappers and food remnant on the table. When he saw Chen Jing walk in, he stood there, somewhat embarrassed, as he clutched a handful of candy wrappers, not knowing where to throw them.


    Chen Jing took the wrappers and threw them into the rubbish bin outside.


    Meanwhile, she secretly noted, Sweet tooth… Or perhaps, he’s craving for something sweet after using his power?


    “It has been thoroughly investigated.”


    After Chen Jing sat down, she took out a newly printed document and said to Lu Xin, “No remaining psyche power residue was detected in theke. This means that the psyche corruption codenamed 041 can be dered as a sessful cleanup.


    “Although there are still some doubts, at least for the time being, no one else will be victimized.”


    Lu Xin nodded. “That’s great.”


    Chen Jing could tell that he was really happy. This gave her an odd feeling.


    Especially when she thought about how Lu Xin dealt with the Psyche Monster and contrasted it with the calm Lu Xin now…


    She felt that she was the one going through a split personality…


    “The investigation of the 041 corruption source will be assigned to someone else.”


    She thought as she crossed her arms and held her chin. She looked at Lu Xin seriously with a pair of eyes that looked deeper and narrowerpared to ordinary people. “What we need to do now is to discuss and reflect about the clean-up. Usually, the clean-up for the corruption source is to find the logic chain and core factor. Only if we find these can we clean-up the corruption source with the least cost. Yet, this time, we haven’t really found these…”


    She paused and continued, “But we managed to settle it.


    “So…


    “Do you have some hidden powers?


    “If not, how were you able to deal with the nearly 200 units of corruption source single-handedly?”
