Chapter 69: Emotions of fear (3) _1
Translator: 549690339
The door was pushed open. It was dark inside without any light.
There was only a faint light from the open curtains. It was quiet and strange.
An inexplicable sense of fear filled the entire room. Every inch of the room seemed to be filled with a chill that could make one’s hair stand on end. The chill was not from the temperature, but from the fear that could make one’s pores close suddenly even in the middle of summer when one was covered in sweat. One would hold their head and lie on the ground, enduring extreme torture, but not dare to make a sound.
Lu Xin strolled around the room slowly. It was a two-bedroom, one-living room. The ceiling was a little low, and there was a television, sofa, and a table of food. Everything was kept very clean, and the room was quite large, so it looked a little empty and deserted.
“There’s no power outage in this apartment, so you can turn on the lights!” Han Bing’s voice rang out in the comms channel, reminding Lu Xin.
Lu Xin nodded. He was about to reach for the light switch, but he retracted his hand.
“I’ll take a look first.”
He answered han Bing in a low voice and walked around the room slowly with his sister by his side.
The living room was empty.
The first bedroom that Lu Xin opened was filled with a pile of junk, but there was nothing unusual about it.
Thus, Lu Xin slowly locked the second bedroom door and turned it.
With a click, the door was pushed open.
Lu Xin immediately caught a whiff of a strong, rancid smell. He raised his sleeve to cover his nose and mouth. It was at this moment that his sister, who was standing beside him, tugged at his sleeve. Even without his sister’s reminder, Lu Xin had already caught sight of a human figure lying on the ground. The strong rancid smell was coming from this person.
It was a corpse.
However, what alerted Lu Xin was not the corpse, but the windowsill.
There was a black figure by the window. He hugged his knees and sat quietly by the window, looking at the scenery outside.
The moment Lu Xin saw him, he was certain that the intense fear he felt was coming from him.
The younger sister stared at the black figure. She squatted down slightly, her eyes shining.
Lu Xin waved his hand lightly, signaling for his sister not to bully it. “Can you communicate?”
The black figure was still sitting by the window, hugging his knees, without any reaction.
“It’s been confirmed. It’s just an ordinary source of contamination!”
Lu Xin sighed softly as he spoke to han Bing in the comms channel. He then turned around and fumbled for the switch behind the door.
The moment the room was lit up, the shadow by the window disappeared. The fear in the room seemed to have dissipated, and Lu Xin could now see the decorations in the room clearly.
It was a rather wide bed with the blanket spread out messily, and half of it was dragged to the ground.
Following the blanket, he could see the corpse on the ground.
He should have been dead for four or five days, and his body had rotted in many places.
He maintained a posture of climbing down from the bed, his palm stretched out in front of him. Two or three meters away from his palm, there was a small medicine bottle with a few bright yellow capsules in it.
It seemed that he had reached for the bottle before he died, but he had failed.
“I’ve found the relevant information. The person who rented room 1004 in Block C of the mining district is a man named Wang Chu. He’s 23 years old this year and works in a factory in the North of the city. He lives alone and has no registered family members or any criminal records.”
In the channel, han Bing’s voice sounded softly, “”Can you tell the cause of his death?”
Lu Xin squatted down and picked up the small medicine bottle. The words ” nitroglycerin ” were printed on it.
Han Bing should be able to see the words on the bottle from the camera on Lu Xin’s body. She immediately analyzed, ” nitroglycerin is a drug used to prevent and treat symptoms such as coronary heart disease and angina. If there are no other external injuries on the body, it can be confirmed that the deceased most likely died of a sudden heart attack, and before his death, he did not get any medicine to alleviate 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 storage bag to store the body and cut off the connection between the source of the pollution and the outside world. Then, let the support team enter the field.
Lu Xin agreed and took out a square-shaped bag from the bag behind him. It was only the size of a palm, but when he opened it, he found that it was quite large. It was made of a rare material that was close to plastic. Lu Xin had seen something similar in his work before and knew that it was woven from a new type of glass fiber.
He did as he was told and put the corpse into the bag. After he sealed it, he paused for a moment and put the medicine bottle into the bag.
The fear in the surroundings had already dissipated very quickly at this moment, and it was almost impossible to feel it anymore.
Meanwhile, han Bing had already informed the support team on his behalf through the channel.
“So, how did he become the source of this contamination?”
Lu Xin walked to the window and pushed it open. The room reeked of decay as he asked the question.
the specific report should be obtained after the research .
Han Bing said. Then, he paused for a moment and said, “However, it’s not hard to analyze this matter.”
“This young man named Wang Chu lived alone in this house. He had no family or friends. He had heart disease, so he had nitroglycerin at home. But one night, he had a heart attack. He didn’t get the life-saving medicine in time and died alone in this room. The intense emotions before death caused his mental state to change.”
however, because he did not have any intention of harming anyone, he only formed a source of contamination that was lower than Class D and did not turn into a mental monster. Furthermore, because he is already dead, the spread of the source of contamination is slow and unconscious. this kind of contamination source will have the most emotional impact on people. Or rather, the impact will be the most serious!
however, because he won’t actively assimilate or attack others, his danger level
and infection level are relatively low. In theory, this should be considered an e-grade contamination source, and also a relatively pure contamination source. Although its influence area is very large, one won’t really be contaminated after coming into contact with it for a short period of time. Of course, if one is affected by it for a long time, some terrifying changes will definitely occur.
“Then
“Why did he leave behind a source of contamination that only contains fear?”
Lu Xin asked.
“It’s probably because he’s very afraid.”
Han Bing was silent for a moment before explaining softly, ” it’s not just the fear of death. There’s also the fear of living alone. No one will notice or care about him even if he dies. It’s this fear that has turned him into a source of contamination.
After a while, Lu Xin nodded his head and said, ‘”‘1t should be like this.”
He subconsciously looked at his sister not far away and saw that she was happily dismantling the toys and figurines on the shelf of the young man in the living room before the support team came up. Her eyes were bright and her face was full of joy. He suddenly felt a lot more at ease …
Fortunately, he had his family to accompany him..
