Since The Red Moon Appeared

Lu Xin sat quietly on the high stool, holding Chen Xun's arm.

The candles on the bar suddenly began to shake. Not only the candles, but also the golden liquid in the four wine glasses on the bar was also shaking gently. On the wine shelf behind the bar, the wine bottles were either broken or vacant. , hit a crisp sound.

Because of Chen Xun's words, more memories began to pour into Lu Xin's mind.

More and more things started to become clear.

He suddenly thought of the orphanage where he was when he was a child.

It was a small three-story building with a lot of space, surrounded by high walls and barbed wire.

He remembered dozens of children living in orphanages, reading, playing, and listening to adults talk about things in the civilized era. He also remembered that there seemed to be chaotic noises, gunshots, and crying outside the walls at that time. and the roar of explosions.

But the orphanage was very safe, and that kind of chaos never happened in an orphanage.

He remembered the old dean who was always pleasant, kind and close.

I also remember that in addition to the old dean, there are often some "teaching teachers" in the orphanage.

Some of them are young, some are older, and some always give people a cold feeling.

He still remembers playing and fighting with the children in the orphanage, and digging through the hidden folders of the old dean's computer.

I also remember that they helped the bullied Little Nineteen to "find a place" and grab the swing.

In this way, the picture began to appear steadily in his mind, as if to remove the layers of fog.

But suddenly, the fog turned blood red.

All the sunny pictures, like old photos, start from the edge and are dyed with blood red edges.

And this shocking blood-red color spread from the surroundings to the whole photo.

All the memories are dyed with a layer of blood.

He saw the bloody corridor and saw twisted corpses all over the place.

Seeing Xiao Jiu's fearful eyes before he died.

...

hum...

There seems to be a sound in the air, which is strangely harsh and makes people's brain hurt.

The nosebleed slowly flowed down the corner of Lu Xin's mouth.

Chen Xun looked at Lu Xin quietly, and carefully tried to break free from his arm. Fortunately, Lu Xin didn't hold him tightly. He broke free, moved slightly, and then took it out from another pocket. A brand new handkerchief was handed to Lu Xin.

Lu Xin took the handkerchief, wiped his nosebleed, and looked at the bright red on the white handkerchief, slightly startled.

"Brother, ignore him, he's lying to you..."

The younger sister held two small fists and shouted to Lu Xin with a grim expression, and... scared.

The shadow lit by the candle was projected in this bar, and inside the shadow, there seemed to be some kind of gaze looking at him.

"Hehe, kill him, why don't you kill such a person quickly?"

"You waited so long, didn't you just kill him?"

"..."

These voices rushed into Lu Xin's mind, causing his eardrums to tingle slightly and feeling irritable.

"I... Who am I?"

But he remained calm, and the expression on his face became less.

"You are a serious polluter."

Chen Xun observed Lu Xin's reaction and didn't try to delay or hide it.

He said softly: "When we found you, you were already seriously polluted. In the eyes of others, you have no hope of being cured, but luckily, or badly, we cured you... Only then, we thought it was cured."

"And in the follow-up experiments, you showed great potential."

"We once thought that you were the best choice..."

Having said this, he was silent for a while, and there seemed to be a wry smile on his face: "Until, you ruined everything!"

...

"you……"

Lu Xin opened his mouth and stopped again, his eardrums kept roaring.

The younger sister had already embraced his arm and begged him: "Brother, kill this man?"

"Don't you hate him? Shouldn't you make him a toy?"

"Don't you want to make him a toy while he's alive?"

In the shadow, his father's blood-red eyes emerged, and he stared at Lu Xin.

"What are you waiting for?"

"You're just procrastinating, why haven't you killed him yet?"

"..."

Lu Xin looked down at his hand, and found that the veins on his wrist were already exposed, as if a snake was crawling inside.

It took a lot of force to control this twitching and out of control feeling.

Then he raised his head to look at Chen Xun, trying his best to keep his voice steady: "What did you do all this for...?"

"..."

Chen Xun sighed softly and looked at Lu Xin, who seemed calm, with a puzzled look.

The fingers turned the wine glass unconsciously, and the golden wine swayed slightly.

After a long while, he said softly, "You finally asked this question."

"At one time we tried to make you understand, but at that time, you were too young."

Speaking softly, he raised his head, looked at Lu Xin frankly, and said, "We are trying to understand and master these powers."

"When the red moon appeared in the sky, we already knew that there were some changes that humans could not refuse."

"We've discovered a power that's been with us, but we haven't."

"This kind of power can easily destroy our civilization, order, and everything we are proud of."

"At that time, there were too many people who surrendered to this kind of power and accepted everything willingly."

"It's like a mouse that met a cat, and even forgot to resist..."

"..."

"But there are always people who are unwilling, just like us."

He paused slightly, looked up at Lu Xin, and there seemed to be some kind of pride in his voice:

"You can understand that we are the ones who want to steal fire!"

"Whatever we face, we believe that one day, we can understand it and fully control it..."

"People are born to control power, aren't they?"

Chen Xun said with a smile on his face, and said, "Civilization has been born since we learned to use tools."

"The history of our civilization is a process of learning to control."

"The thunder, lightning, earthquake and gust of wind in ancient times were a disaster for human beings, but we gradually understood and learned to control, so modern civilization came, and the appearance of the red moon was also a disaster, and we must be able to control it. "

"Like this dark..."

He suddenly raised his head and pointed to the bar.

Most of the bar was submerged in the darkness, silent, without any movement.

"In the face of darkness, we don't expect to wait for the sun to rise."

Chen Xun looked at Lu Xin's eyes and said softly, "We will try to light the candle and illuminate it."

...

"buzz" "buzz" "buzz"

The impact one by one, like a tide, squeezed Lu Xin's mind.

He heard some of Chen Xun's words, and some didn't. Even in front of his eyes, Chen Xun's face was sometimes close, sometimes far away, as if someone was holding it in his hand, constantly rubbing it, pulling it. Open paintings, the real world has a kind of unreal absurdity.

The younger sister hugged his arm tightly at this time, her face was full of tears.

Father seemed to have come out of the shadow. His tall figure was walking around anxiously around him.

"Kill all, kill everyone..."

"He's a lunatic, all of them are lunatics..."

"He treats everyone as a toy, so we treat him as a toy too!"

"Let him regret it and always remember this pain..."

"Let him understand that the price of doing such a thing..."

"..."

"Don't talk to me now, okay?"

Lu Xin couldn't help it, he slowly turned his head and said to his father and sister beside him.

Both father and sister stopped, just looking at him gloomily.

Lu Kuan clenched his fist angrily, pressed it against his temple, and thumped it heavily.

He seemed to be trying to quiet his chaotic mind.

Then he raised his head, his eyes were full of bloodshot eyes, and he stared at Chen Xun.

"Then you can..."

He tried hard to keep his voice steady: "That's fine, just cut people casually, cut... cut them open?"

"..."

The candles on the bar suddenly went out.

Chen Xun has quieted down, and when he saw Lu Xin talking to his side, he closed his mouth.

He just looked at Lu Xin calmly, stared at his wandering eyes, and also looked at the bloodshot slowly emerging from his black and white eyes. Through Lu Xin's movement of pressing his fist to his temple, he felt his heart at this moment. How frustrating.

After being silent for a while, he gently lifted his glasses, and then slowly lit the candles.

"What do you want to tell me, even if it is the pursuit of truth and the pursuit of a great goal, it must be about the bottom line?"

He opened his mouth softly and looked directly into Lu Xin's eyes with no fear on his face: "I'm sorry!"

"I didn't intend to discuss such a childish question with you."

"..."

Lu Xin raised his head sharply, and a strange look fell on Chen Xun's face.

"Kill him, kill someone like this..."

"Chop him into meat sauce..."

"Absolutely, never allow him to do such a thing to anyone again..."

Both the younger sister and father rushed towards Chen Xun, as if they wished to tear Chen Xun to pieces on the spot.

It's just that their hands are still far away from Chen Xun.

At this time, Lu Xinneng could faintly hear the sound of gunshots, the sound of heavy objects smashing, and the pain of some people on the other side of the building.

This made him understand that in another direction, Chen Jing and the others had already begun to try to enter the laboratory and encountered some powerful enemies.

At the same time, he also realized that this relative is now in a hurry to do something else.

Lu Xin's ten fingers spasmed, shaking as if uncontrollably.
