Starting from the Red Moon

"Today's meeting is not for you to discuss academic research!"

Seeing that everyone in the office fell into deep thought because of an estimated value, the projection sat on the far left of the desk. The man who looked about fifty years old knocked on the conference table and reminded with a dignified look: "Now we need to discuss whether it is in accordance with the regulations to recruit and use a mutant with such a high risk of losing control!"

"What is not in accordance with the regulations?"

Chen Jing frowned and said to the man, "He performed very well today!"

"But everyone saw that his mental state is not normal..."

The man refuted coldly, saying: "The previous incident of dealing with the No. 041 pollution source has already shown his crazy side, and in his conversation with you just now, it shows that he has severe schizophrenia. If such a person has a very high mental level, have you ever thought about how much harm it will bring to the No. 2 satellite city or even the main city once it loses control?"

Chen Jing seemed to have heard a lot of such words, and said directly: "Then what do you want?"

The man was silent for a moment, and said: "When the research project on mental mutation was first established, it was clearly stipulated that if the risk of losing control reached 80%, it would be absolutely forbidden to recruit and guide. If the risk of losing control reached 90%, it would be necessary to be prepared for cleaning at any time..."

"Now he may not be ready to be cleaned up, but he obviously has a very high risk of losing control!"

"For such a person, I hope he can always be in a state that can be monitored and controlled."

"In other words, I would rather keep him alive than let him be exposed to similar mental pollution events too much!"

"..."

"Objection!"

Chen Jing said: "We can only be sure that his mental level is very high now, but we cannot determine that he has a high risk of losing control!"

There was a little anger in the man's voice: "He is a schizophrenic patient!"

Chen Jing suddenly felt a strange feeling when she heard this.

She inexplicably thought of Lu Xin's words just now, and subconsciously said: "Or, the problem is not that he can see his family..."

"But what if we can't see it?"

"..."

The meeting room was suddenly quiet after hearing this.

The man frowned tightly and shouted, "Are you crazy too?"

Another staff member wearing glasses also whispered, "It's the same as the spirit monster. The weather was clear at the time, and the red moon was bright. Many people saw the vague shape of the spirit monster, but they didn't see the so-called... family from him. This can also be inferred that the sister he mentioned is indeed an illusion, not... something we can't see!"

Chen Jing shook her head and said no more. What she said just now was indeed a bit absurd in the eyes of others.

So she smiled, cheered up, looked at the middle-aged man and said, "If you think that the threat he poses when he loses control is too great, and you refuse to guide him, or even monitor him completely, or expel him, then have you ever thought about who will bear the risk if he loses control because of the lack of guidance, or some monitoring, and the expulsion behavior angers him?"

The middle-aged man fell silent for a moment.

In his opinion, Chen Jing was just arguing, although this argument was indeed difficult for him to refute.

"Haha, don't argue, there's no point in discussing these things!"

Seeing that the atmosphere at the beginning of this meeting was a bit tense, an old man with a fat face and a big smile, like an official, sitting in the middle, smiled and played the role of a peacemaker, saying: "Everyone is for Qinggang City, for the reconstruction of civilization and order. Colonel Chen is more concerned about how to solve the increasing number of mental pollution incidents in the city, while Minister Shen is considering how to avoid the trouble caused by some out-of-control risks. Since the goals are the same, there are always good solutions!"

Chen Jing slowly exhaled and said: "I still have the same opinion. I don't think that potential threats and real out-of-control risks can be confused. So many cases have proved that mental mutants are much more accurate than ordinary people in dealing with pollution incidents, and the sacrifice is the least. As for the possible dangers of mental mutants losing control that you are worried about..."

"It is exactly what Professor Bai proposed before, to guide and cultivate these mental mutants to prevent them from losing control..."

"Guidance and cultivation are done when the risk of losing control is lower than a certain value!"

Minister Shen couldn't refute and sneered: "And you want to guide a schizophrenic?"

Chen Jing retorted, "The schizophrenic you are talking about just helped Qinggang avoid a disaster!"

"And there were no casualties among the investigators!"

"..."

The middle-aged man looked a little angry and said, "There is no need to say this nonsense. I still have the same opinion. Based on the initial standards of the Qinggang City Mental Mutation Research Project, this person's out-of-control factor has obviously reached 80%, or even higher. I think such a person should not be recruited, let alone guided. If Colonel Chen must recruit him, then you can sign a document afterwards. If this person really loses control in the future, then all the risks will be borne by you!"

Chen Jing was angry and slammed the table.

Seeing that the dispute was about to continue, Corporal Han Bing, who had been silent all the time, suddenly said:

"Wait, there is a signal from Professor Bai to be received!"

Hearing the three words "Professor Bai", everyone's expression was stern, and they subconsciously sat up straight.

Soon, the projection equipment on the four walls began to work. Next to the conference table, the light and shadow intertwined up and down, outlining an old man with silver hair, wearing a white suit, and leaning on a cane. After all the figures were drawn, he nodded to the people around the conference table and said, "I know what you are discussing. I have also read the information of that young man!"

Chen Jing stood up and said, "Professor Bai!"

The old man in the white suit nodded to her and said, "Minister Chen's worry is right. The risk of this young man losing control is not low!"

"Similarly, his mental level may be higher than you think."

"..."

"What?"

Chen Jing's face suddenly became a little complicated.

"In my opinion, the 80% risk of losing control may even be too low!"

Professor Bai sighed softly, then turned to his side and said, "Scan the document for them!"

The projection equipment started working, and soon a paper document was scanned in front of everyone, including Chen Jing. Although it was just a shadow, the content of the document could be clearly seen.

"The explosion of the Red Moon Orphanage?"

Looking at the title on the document, everyone's face became a little solemn.

"This report is from when this young man was in the Red Moon Orphanage!"

Professor Bai leaned on his crutches and said, "Ten years ago, a suspected explosion occurred in Satellite City No. 2. The entire orphanage was destroyed. Only two people survived. One was him, and the other was Zeng Xiaolu, the current principal of Red Moon Primary School. Of course, their orphanage was not compliant... and that explosion now has many doubts..."

"At that time, our department had not yet been formally established, and we were short of staff and did not have enough ability to analyze and observe. We could only hastily close the case and the Metropolitan Police Department of City No. 2 handled it as an explosion. But now, looking through the previous files, we find many doubts."

"There was no gunpowder or other explosive residue at the scene, but all the houses were destroyed very thoroughly..."

"..."

Chen Jing listened to these words, and his face gradually became a little solemn: "What you mean is..."

Professor Bai nodded and said, "According to my analysis, this is very likely a terrible case of telekinesis out of control..."

"Telekinesis out of control..."

Chen Jing was slightly startled: "The telekinetic out-of-control event that destroyed a three-story building in an instant..."

In the entire office, everyone's projection seemed a little quiet at this time, or surprised.

If it was just surprising to have a mental level of 300 units at the beginning without guidance, then if he could have caused a telekinetic out-of-control event that destroyed a three-story building ten years ago.

How high is this mental level?

This is a data that people dare not think about in detail, similar to the difference between a bullet and a bomb!
