Chereads / Starting from the Red Moon / Chapter 67 - Chapter 67: Fear

Chapter 67 - Chapter 67: Fear

The door was pushed open, and it was dark inside, without a single ray of light.

Only at the open curtains, there was a faint light shining from outside, which seemed quiet and eerie.

An inexplicable sense of fear filled the entire room, and every inch seemed to have a chill that could make people shudder. That chill was not about temperature, but about the fear that would make people's hair and bones suddenly close, hold their heads and lie on the ground, endure the extreme torture, and dare not make a sound, even in the hottest days of summer.

Lu Xin walked slowly in the room, and saw that it was a room with a living room and two bedrooms. The ceiling seemed a little low, and there was a TV, a sofa, and a dining table, all of which were very clean. The area was not small, so the room seemed a little empty and deserted.

"This apartment is not out of power, you can turn on the lights!"

Han Bing's voice sounded softly in the channel, reminding Lu Xin.

Lu Xin nodded, and wanted to go over and touch the switch of the lamp, but he withdrew his hand.

"Let me take a look first."

He answered Han Bing in a low voice, and then walked slowly around the room, with his sister following him.

The living room was empty, with nothing in it.

The first bedroom that Lu Xin opened was piled with miscellaneous items, and there was nothing strange either.

So Lu Xin slowly grasped the door lock of the second bedroom and slowly turned it.

With a slight "click", the door was pushed inside.

Lu Xin immediately smelled a strong, rotten smell that burst out all of a sudden, and raised his sleeves to cover his mouth and nose. At this time, his sister beside him gently pulled him. In fact, without his sister's reminder, Lu Xin had already seen a human figure lying on the ground with his eyes that had just adapted to the light in the room. The strong rotten smell came from him.

This is a dead body.

What made Lu Xin a little alert was not the dead body, but the windowsill.

At this time, there was a dark shadow on the window sill. He hugged his knees, sat quietly by the window, and looked at the scenery outside the window.

As soon as he saw him, Lu Xin was sure that the strong fear came from him.

The sister stared at the shadow, squatted slightly, and her eyes were shining.

Lu Xin waved his hand gently, signaling his sister not to bully it, and just whispered: "Can we communicate?"

The shadow still just hugged his knees quietly and sat by the window without any reaction.

"It has been confirmed, it is just an ordinary pollution source!"

Lu Xin sighed softly, said to Han Bing in the channel, then turned around and touched the switch behind the door.

"Snap"

When the light suddenly illuminated the room, the shadow on the windowsill disappeared in an instant, and even the fear in the room seemed to dissipate a lot. Lu Xin could clearly see the layout of the room at this time.

A rather wide bed, the quilt on it was spread out in a mess, and half of it was dragged to the ground.

Following the quilt, you can see the body lying on the ground.

It should have been four or five days since he died, and there were many places on his body that had rotted.

He maintained a posture of climbing down from the bed, with his palm stretched forward, and two or three meters away from his palm, there was a small medicine bottle, and there were a few bright yellow capsule-shaped pills in it, which spilled out of the bottle.

It seemed that he should have reached for the medicine bottle before he died, but failed.

"I have found relevant information. The tenant in Room 1004, Building C, Kuangdong Community is a man named Wang Chu, who is 23 years old this year, works in a factory in the north of the city, lives alone, has no registered relatives, and has no other criminal records, etc."

Han Bing's voice sounded softly in the channel: "Can you tell the cause of his death?"

Lu Xin squatted down and picked up the small medicine bottle, only to see the vague words "nitroglycerin" printed on it.

Han Bing should be able to see the words on the bottle from the camera screen on Lu Xin, and immediately analyzed: "Nitroglycerin is a drug for preventing and treating coronary heart disease, angina pectoris and other symptoms. If there are no other external injuries on the body, then it can be determined that the deceased is most likely due to a sudden heart attack, and before dying, he failed to get the drug to relieve the symptoms in time."

"But the specific cause of death can only be determined after the autopsy."

"..."

"What should we do now?"

Lu Xin nodded and asked Han Bing in the channel.

"It is recommended to use a special containment bag to collect the body, cut off the connection between the pollution source and the outside world, and then let the support team enter."

Lu Xin agreed, and took out a square bag from the bag behind him. It looked like a small piece of palm, but after unfolding it, it was found that the area was quite large. It was made of a material that was rarely seen on the market and close to plastic. Lu Xin had seen similar ones at work before and knew that it was a new type of glass fiber woven.

He put the body in the bag as he was told, and after sealing it, he paused for a moment and put the medicine bottle into the bag.

The fear around him had dissipated very quickly at this time, almost imperceptible.

And Han Bing had already notified the support team on his behalf in the channel.

"So, how did he become the source of pollution?"

Lu Xin came to the window, opened the window, and asked at the same time, letting out the stench in the room.

"The specific report should be obtained from the subsequent research..."

Han Bing said, then paused slightly, and said: "However, this matter is not difficult to analyze."

"This young man named Wang Chu lives alone in this house, without relatives or friends. He has heart disease, so there is nitroglycerin at home, but one night, he suddenly had a heart attack, but did not get the life-saving medicine in time, so he died alone in this room. It should be the intense emotions before dying that caused his mental changes."

"However, because he did not have any intention of harming people, he only formed a pollution source below Class D, instead of becoming a mental monster. And because he is already dead, the diffusion ability of this pollution source is also slow and unconscious."

"Such a pollution source brings the most serious emotional impact or influence to people!"

"But because he will not actively assimilate or attack others, his danger and infection level are relatively low. Theoretically, this should be considered an E-level pollution source, and it is also a relatively pure pollution source. Although it affects a large range, short-term contact will not really be contaminated. Of course, if it is affected for a long time, there will definitely be some terrible changes."

"..."

"Then..."

Lu Xin listened quietly and said, "Why did he leave such a pollution source that only fears?"

"It should be because he is very scared."

Han Bing was silent for a while, and then explained softly: "It's not just the fear of death, but also the fear of living alone here, and no one can find him and care about him when he dies. It is this fear that makes him such a pollution source."

"..."

After a while, Lu Xin nodded gently: "It should be like this."

He subconsciously looked at his sister not far away. He saw that she was happily dismantling the toys and figurines that the young people in the living room had placed on the shelf before the support team came up. Her eyes were shining and her face was full of joy. Suddenly, he felt much more at ease...

Fortunately, he had his family with him.
