Chapter 918

The dark red moon hung low over the high-rise buildings of the city, almost filling half the sky.

A dark black commuter train, its body covered in rust in many places, sped through the entire city under the gaze of the red moon. Inside the train, passengers dressed in various clothes were reading newspapers or dozing off under the dim lights.

"Ding, Moon Terrace Station has arrived!"

Lu Xin woke up from his doze, picked up his bag, and followed the surging crowd out of the carriage.

He carried his bag on his back, walked past the dirty and dilapidated steps and the station platform full of newspapers, and reached the ground level of this city. Looking up, the light of the surrounding neon signs gave the streets of this city and the crowds on the streets a strange, colorful feeling. But no matter how rich the colors on the streets were, the red moon above this city still represented the background color of this world.

Ever since the Red Moon Incident thirty years ago, the whole world had been like this.

Of course, Lu Xin did not know what was different about it; he was born after the Red Moon Incident, and the world had always been like this.

He carried his bag through the alley that had just rained, climbed up an old, dilapidated building. The elevator was broken again, so he could only take the stairs, slowly arriving in front of Room 401 on the fourth floor. He took out his key and opened the heavy door of that thick door.

The corridor was quiet and cold, but the room was warm and gentle.

In the kitchen, Dad was stewing meat; the pressure cooker was bubbling with heat, emitting an alluring meaty aroma.

Little Sister was lying on the sofa, holding snacks, watching a very old cartoon, SpongeBob SquarePants.

Mom was elegant and proper, wearing a white wool cardigan, standing by the window talking on the phone.

"Brother Nine, you're back!"

Seeing Lu Xin walk in and put down his bag, Little Sister raised her head and greeted him with a sweet smile.

"Little Seventeen, were you good at home today? I bought you the teddy bear you wanted!"

Lu Xin touched her head and handed her a small brown teddy bear.

"Ah, thank you, Brother, I love it so much!"

Little Sister jumped up happily, hugging the teddy bear in her arms.

"Back?"

Mom looked up at Lu Xin and nodded with a smile: "Sit down and rest for a while, dinner will be ready soon!"

Lu Xin nodded and sat down next to the dining table.

Four sets of bowls and chopsticks were already set on the table, along with a few plates of green side dishes. The rice was served in the bowls and had already cooled down a bit.

However, none of the family members had any intention of sitting down to eat.

Mom was continuing to speak gently on the phone: "Sister Zhang, actually, I was indeed in the wrong about today's matter. Please don't be angry. Of course, the style of this gray wool cardigan of mine is indeed a bit old-fashioned, but how can you say it doesn't look good?... Yes, I am calling you because of this matter... Of course you didn't say it out loud, but I know you thought so in your heart..."

"No, no, please don't misunderstand... I just wanted to ask you to apologize... It's not good for you to scold people, it's too uncivilized..."

Dad's sound of chopping bones was getting louder and louder, and his scolding could be faintly heard...

... grumbling voice: "Scum, trash, breaking into someone else's house at will, damn it, all damn it... Damn it, eating so much, no matter how much I chop, I can't finish, no matter how much I boil, I can't boil it clean!"

Little Sister was happily sitting cross-legged on the sofa at this time, tearing the little brown bear apart bit by bit, pulling with both hands, biting with those snow-white, fine teeth, biting off the little brown bear's ears, biting off its eyes, pulling off its two arms bit by bit, watching the process of the arms separating from the bear's body seriously, revealing an excited and satisfied expression.

"We have to wait a while before eating!"

Mom had already put down the phone and said gently: "I had a little misunderstanding with neighbor Sister Zhang, I'm going to apologize to her!"

Saying this, she took out the scissors from the drawer, walked out elegantly, and closed the door.

Lu Xin sat quietly by the dining table waiting.

He felt that he was lucky. At the beginning of the Red Moon Incident, the world had a long period of chaos. During that time, many people died, and many orphans like Lu Xin appeared. A large part of them disappeared after reaching adulthood, and Lu Xin was able to be adopted by his parents and have a warm home; I don't know how many people envied him.

Of course, this family, these family members, sometimes can be a little strange.

But this family, in this dilapidated and dirty little satellite city, was still very complete.

Mom came back soon, with a gratified smile on her face, saying: "Sister Zhang has already made up with me!"

Lu Xin noticed a piece of inconspicuous bloodstain under the collar of the white wool cardigan she was wearing, very fresh.

The family started to eat.

Little Sister was still hugging her teddy bear; after being torn apart by her, it was sewn back together.

It was just that the body was pieced together crookedly, full of rough stitches, but Little Sister liked it even more than before.

Dad sat in front of the dining table, opened a bottle of white liquor with a stained label that made the words illegible, picked up a chopstick of green vegetables, and finished a cup in one breath. There was no meat on the table; Dad liked to chop bones and stew meat, but he never let anyone eat it, nor did he let anyone near his iron pot. He was still wearing a plastic apron, splashed with blood stains, and a few flies were buzzing around him.

Outside, the sound of police sirens approached, and noisy human voices kept coming, not knowing what they were saying.

"Slap!"

Dad suddenly put down his wine glass forcefully, his blood-red eyes bulging as he looked out the window: "Noisy, noisy, all they know is to make noise, damn it, they don't even let people eat a peaceful meal, trash police station, can't find anything, trash neighbors, all they know is to peek at others every day!"

"Don't scare the child!"

Mom picked up a green vegetable and ate it carefully; her bright red lips were very eye-catching under the dim light.

Lu Xin remembered she didn't wear lipstick.

"Damn the child, damn it, all damn it!"

Dad was even more furious, his five fingers tightly gripping the wine bottle, his veins popping, and he scolded: "***, you should die too!"

"Yes,

in your eyes, everyone should die, only you shouldn't!"

Mom smiled elegantly and calmly: "Because you want to keep the corpses in the end, right? You like to collect corpses for people!"...

She said, put down her bowl and chopsticks, smiled gently, and looked at Dad: "Because when those people were alive, they lived better than you and were more capable than you, so you especially don't like to see them alive; you like to watch them when they can no longer speak!"

"Shut up, shut up, do you know?"

Dad was indeed angered by Mom; he smashed the wine bottle and rushed up to grab Mom's neck.

"Giggle..."

Mom laughed very happily, even though her face was already purple from being choked, her smile was still very elegant: "Trash... trash..."

"Slap!"

Dad finally couldn't help it and started to punch and kick, causing the dining room to shake constantly.

"Wow... Dad, don't hit Mom..."

Little Sister was so scared that she cried loudly, hugging the teddy bear tightly, but suddenly her expression changed, and she giggled wildly: "Fun, fun, really fun..."

While laughing wildly, she suddenly flipped and jumped up, like a flexible spider, climbed onto the ceiling, hooked her two feet onto the chandelier, and I don't know how she fixed her body, twisted her head around, looking at the fighting below, biting the toy teddy bear in her mouth, clapping her hands forcefully, and sobbing non-stop, as if laughing, as if crying: "Too fun..."

Dad was getting angrier and angrier, his body seemed to be expanding constantly, his muscles tore through his shirt, revealing a cyan back covered in stiff black hair, his facial features became distorted and huge, waving his fists, hitting Mom forcefully, punch after punch, and Mom had already been beaten to a pulp by him, but her voice was still as elegant: "It's really good, this look of incompetent rage..."

Lu Xin held his rice, sitting next to the dining table that had been overturned, slowly eating the rice grains in his bowl.

After the Red Moon Incident, having a warm family is very rare...

Although in his own home, family members also have some small problems, sometimes they quarrel and fight, but it's still a home...

Outside the window, a room directly facing the window of Lu Xin's living room was set up as a simple studio.

A short-haired woman in a casual suit was observing Lu Xin's room through a telescope.

Through the lens of the telescope, one could see that in that empty room, Lu Xin was sitting on a chair eating alone. Even though he was the only one sitting there, the room seemed to have an earthquake; tables and chairs were overturned, the chandelier was shaking constantly, and white flower-shaped cracks appeared on the window glass from time to time, as if something had hit it.

"The mental power of the thirteenth mental mutation observer has appeared!"

Two young men in exquisite work clothes beside her were calculating quickly, while the other was recording.

"Does he have the potential to be recruited?"

【No text】

"How big is the potential threat?"

"What is the specific ability?"

The short-haired woman shook her head and said: "It's still unclear. He is not like other mental mutants who show strong mutation forms in the early stages, such as being able to enter other people's dreams or releasing mental plagues inadvertently. He looks very normal, can go to work and get off work normally every day, and can even handle work very well, but his spirit occasionally becomes disordered!"

"Sounds like he has potential and is easy to guide!"

Behind them, a man with a majestic face said: "Have you tried letting a dream-weaver enter his dream for an assessment?"

"Yes!"

The short-haired woman in the red suit nodded gently and said: "But after that dream-weaver entered his dream, he never came out again!"
