Chapter 34: Reporting Information

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

It was already three days later when the satellite phone rang, and Lu Xin was busy in his office.

With the ring of the phone, everyone in the office suddenly turned to look at him. They were quiet and the mood was suppressed.

Lu Xin calmly took out his phone from the light brown bag behind him and walked out of the office.

It wasn’t the first time he had seen this.

Three days ago, the same thing happened after he dealt with the special corruption incident.

Back then, Lu Xin thought it had ended when Chen Jing stopped looking for him. Therefore, he returned to the office as usual on the next day. However, what greeted him were strange gazes and a very quiet office.

A bruised Lv Cheng looked up from the partition at his desk as though he saw a ghost when he saw Lu Xin.

“What’s wrong?”

Lu Xin looked at everyone else with his newly-purchased bag. “What’s wrong?”

With a boom, everyone resumed work and pretended that nothing was wrong.

Lu Xin didn’t bother about them and returned to his seat to resume work. He was still concerned about his new assignment. He had to purchase a suitable batch of rough processed glass fiber filter cloth from the Second Satellite City and transport it to Bogu Technology through the Square Transportation Company. This was a big project, and he would expect a huge pay raise if done well.

After half an hour, his supervisor came to his seat and probed. “Little Lu, let’s go for a smoke break?”

Lu Xin looked up and saw his director, whose forehead was covered with perspiration, and replied, “Sure!”

Although he had a lot of work to do, the other party was his director, after all…

As they arrived at the staircase, the director passed Lu Xin a cigarette and lit it for him.

“Little Lu, I heard that yesterday, you were at the Square Transportation Company…”

The director forced himself to remain composed and asked, “There was some conflict?”

“Yeah!”

Lu Xin said apologetically, “So sorry, director, those people were too brutal. They beat up Liu Xiaoqing and Lv Cheng…”

Then, he said sincerely, “However, we didn’t lose out, I beat them up too!”

“Hey… Don’t talk nonsense, the beating is not for us…”

The director almost lost his soul due to fear. He shuddered and hastily denied.

Then, he realized that he was being a little overboard and asked carefully, “So, you used a gun… and nothing happened?”

Lu Xin replied strangely, “Nope!”

The director’s face was twisted. “The Security Office didn’t look for you?”

Lu Xin thought about it and said, “I did go to the Security Office…”

The director became nervous. “So you…”

“I came back after drinking a cup of coffee!”

Lu Xin looked at his director as he smoked. “Their coffee is better than ours!”

“That’s… that’s…”

His director nodded and was about to cry.

He couldn’t understand how someone who shot another person was let off after a cup of coffee in the Security Office, especially when the security rules regarding guns were so strict in the satellite city. Another thing that he couldn’t understand was how Lu Xin became his subordinate. However, the thing that troubled him the most was how Lu Xin was able to work under him for two or three years obediently?

“Don’t worry, director!”

Lu Xin read his director’s mind and said sincerely, “I have a background!”

“Of course, I could tell…”

The director’s smile was uglier than crying. “I just didn’t expect your background to be… so great!”

Lu Xin looked at his director and was rather happy. He knew that his career would be smooth sailing in the future.

From this day, Lu Xin returned to his boring job, but he was nevertheless motivated due to the paycheck. That day, Princess Xiaoqing and Lv Cheng, even though suffering from a beating, managed to get back a contract. The price also seemed appropriate. So, Lu Xin’s remaining work was to ensure that this order was completed successfully.

Of course, for the Square Transportation Company, Lu Xin also didn’t know how Chen Jing dealt with them. The company closed down for two entire days, and on the third day, they suddenly appeared again and continued with their business as though nothing had happened.

In the follow-up, nobody else mentioned Qin Ran as though he was completely forgotten.

Suspicions were suspicions, business was business. Lu Xin knew the differences very well.

He dealt with the order meticulously and picked two people in the office to help him.

One of them was Sister Sun, who was alright apart from being slightly naggy, greedy, and selfish.

The other was Brother Zhang, who was alright apart from being slightly lazy, liking to drink, and liking to push the responsibility to others.

Princess Xiaoqing didn’t go to work because her face was swollen. Meanwhile, even though Lv Cheng was injured, he came to work. Initially, he wanted to complete the order with Lu Xin. After all, he was already beaten up and the assignment was on track. Moreover, Lu Xin was experienced, and he might be a person he should suck up to.

The only problem was that Lu Xin’s gaze when he stared at him was odd.

He felt that Lu Xin always looked at his back.

Sometimes, he felt that Lu Xin was looking at himself and turned around, only to find out that Lu Xin was busy doing his own work.

This feeling made Lv Cheng uncomfortable.

All of these were still tolerable. Then, one day when Lu Xin was carrying his bag, a gun suddenly dropped out.

Lv Cheng broke down immediately when the “pop” sound was heard.

After thinking about it, he couldn’t stand it any further and voluntarily withdrew from the project.

Lu Xin felt that he was a pretty good observer.

If he didn’t withdraw voluntarily, Lu Xin would worry that his sister would do something to him…

…

Also because of this, when Lu Xin’s satellite phone rang, the entire office stopped working and threw him a glance. They looked as though they had resistance to strange things.

“Hi, Mr. Lu Xin. I’m Han Bing from the Information Analysis Team of the Special Corruption Cleanup Department.

“This phone call is to inform you of the treatment and analysis results of the special corruption source 041!”

When he picked up the phone, he heard Han Bing’s soft voice.

“Hi, hi. Please go ahead!”

Lu Xin hid in the corridor and said politely.

“Alright!”

Han Bing became more polite when Lu Xin replied politely. Her voice was gentle. “This is the routine practice. Every time after dealing with a psyche corruption incident, we will do the corresponding analysis and processing. The people handling the process will be notified of the results!”

Lu Xin said politely again, “Thank you, thank you. Sorry for the trouble. Please speak!”

“No worries, it’s my job…”

Han Bing said politely, “The current results for the corruption source 041 is: The special corruption source 041, that is, the corpses of Qin Ran and Cui Wang, have been transported to Qinggang City’s Special Corruption Source Reception Center for sealing!

“No psyche power was left behind in the region where Qin Ran’s body was found, but we still sealed the place up based on regulations. No more creatures will enter that area until next year. The three members of the corruption investigation team have also undergone a series of tests and psychological evaluations to confirm that they are free from signs of corruption. They’re now on leave and resting!

“Oh right, they wanted me to thank you for saving their lives!”

“Oh, that’s too polite of them. It’s my job!”

Lu Xin thought about it and asked, “The corruption source has not been destroyed?”

Han Bing said, “We still need to investigate. But rest assured, the controllable corruption sources and of less threat will all be transported to the special reception center to be sealed up. The most professional equipment is there to ensure that the corruption incident will not happen again!”

“Oh, that’s pretty good!”

Lu Xin didn’t ask too much about the details. Instead, he asked about something he was most concerned about.

“So, how exactly did this incident happen?”
