Chapter 358: Lost Person
The Broken Star Club was not a secret organization with a really strict structure.
Meng Chao had said himself, “The members of the Broken Star Club are not that much different compared to members of broadcasting platforms or supermarkets.”
A broken-star superhuman could join more than ten similar organizations at the same time if they wanted.
Even if there was really a broken-star superhuman who joined the Broken Star Club and Blue Home at the same time and was enthralled by the abnormal beasts lurking in Blue Home, the fault would never be on the Broken Star Club’s head.
However, Meng Chao was indeed interested in Blue Home.
Lin Chuan was his senior and good friend. He also saved Meng Chao a few times when they were under Raging Waves.
Gao Ye might not be close to him, but based on how sincerely they spoke with each other and the remarks he left behind in his experiment logs, he was not the Supernatural Ent.i.ty from Meng Chao’s previous life. That creature was pure evil, incredibly ruthless, and only knew how to destroy things.
Meng Chao really wanted to know how the two men were influenced by Blue Home and walked down the road to the abyss.
The only problem was...
“But how can I join Blue Home?” Meng Chao asked. “I can’t just go to their headquarters and ask to join, right?”
“Of course you shouldn’t do it so crudely.” Ye Xiaoxing brought out another picture and tapped the head of the person in it. “This person is Zhao Feixuan. Based on our investigations, he’s a core member of Blue Home. He’s also a mutual friend of Lin Chuan and Gao Ye. We’ve noticed that he has exchanged emails with Lin Chuan and Gao Ye. Of course, there’s nothing that stands out from the emails.”
“Zhao Feixuan?” Meng Chao found this name a little familiar.
It was a familiarity that caused his heart to jump in fear.
He went over to take a closer look. The photo had a machine master with broad shoulders and a thick waist. He swung a multi-function machine arm and wore a uniform that had dozens of pockets. The uniform was covered in grease. Since it was already washed so many times that its colors were beginning to fade away, he looked a little sloppy.
The face of the person wearing the uniform was handsome and honorable. Even if there were wrinkles on his face, Meng Chao could still admit that he was handsome. The grease on his cheeks brought out his pearly white teeth, and he smiled really brilliantly.
Meng Chao was silent for a while. Since he did not know any Zhao Feixuan in this life, it meant that this was a name he had heard in his previous life.
Countless memories fragments danced like crystalline b.u.t.terflies in the depths of his mind.
Meng Chao’s consciousness was like a nimble tentacle that moved past those memory b.u.t.terflies.
“Twelve years ago, Zhao Feixuan graduated from the University of Technology’s machine course with flying colors and became an outstanding machine master. Later on, he joined the Red Dragon Army and developed weapons for a period of time. He’s especially good at creating defense-based weapons, such as machine gun towers, electromagnetic towers, and chained minefields,” Ye Xiaoxing introduced him.
“He can be considered to have extraordinary talent when it comes to developing weapons. Many of the defense-type weapons that he developed or modified are still being used at the frontlines and many of the residential areas.
“But after a few years of research and development, he felt that pure research in the field of machines can’t show any essential breakthroughs. Hence, he became interested in researching runic symbols.
“He pa.s.sed Runic Symbol Master s.h.i.+ Xunmo’s test and became his youngest disciple. Later, he showed that he was his best disciple too.
“He has both talent in machines and runic symbols, so he stood out very quickly among Master s.h.i.+’s disciples. He’s believed to be the person with the greatest qualifications to inherit Master s.h.i.+’s legacy.
“But Zhao Feixuan was from a poor family. He didn’t have a strong background, so in the end, Master s.h.i.+ handed his legacy and the runic symbol workshop to his own son.
“It seems like Zhao Feixuan’s relations.h.i.+p with Master s.h.i.+ went sour because of this. Even though they didn’t end up as enemies, they’re like strangers now.
“Zhao Feixuan soon left Master s.h.i.+’s runic symbol workshop and the Red Dragon Army. He joined the Standard Firepower Security Company, which sets up defense systems for the various residential areas in Dragon City.
“He’s a machine master and a runic symbol master. He also has experience in creating defense lines and fortresses for the military. So, it’s natural that he would be very familiar with creating defense systems for normal residential areas as well.
“Over the past few years, Standard Firepower has set up the defense lines of at least twenty-three middle-grade and high-end residential areas.
“Zhao Feixuan made use of his outstanding talent to become a high-ranking manager and partner of Standard Firepower. Now, he’s the vice president of the company and is in charge of the daily tasks of their business.”
Meng Chao rubbed the photo gently.
After he heard Ye Xiaoxing’s introductions, the image of a business elite with outstanding aura popped up in his head.
But why was it that the alarm bells in his head were ringing even louder?
Suddenly, Meng Chao’s pupils shrank, and he shuddered.
He remembered now. He remembered just who Zhao Feixuan was in his previous life.
He was a lost person!
After Dragon City transmigrated to the Other World, they faced three types of threats. The first was zombies. The second was the monsters. The third was the superhumans who used their superpowers to bully the weak and enslave their own kind. They were evil superhumans who refused to be bound by the law and morals and rejected the might of the Survival Committee and the Supernatural Tower.
There were actually quite a lot of evil superhumans.
But due to understandable reasons, the Survival Committee and the Supernatural Tower were both unwilling to paint the evil superhumans in an overly terrifying light. They also did not want the normal citizens to realize the truth that compared to superhumans, normal people were just chickens waiting for slaughter.
“Superhumans are the weapons of human civilization. When their minds are awake, they are definitely the guardians of all humans, not the a.s.sailants and slave masters.”
This was something the Survival Committee and Supernatural Tower unanimously agreed on.
But unfortunately, the superhumans did not always remain alert. All sorts of reasons led to superhumans falling into the darkness and turning into demons.
One of the examples was excess spirit energy cras.h.i.+ng into a person’s brain, which sent them into spirit energy deviation.
Another example was someone gaining all sorts of PTSD symptoms after facing multiple monsters skilled in mind attacks. The monsters would target their cerebral cortexes viciously, and their mental strength indices would fall to zero.
Yet one more example was someone being controlled by abnormal beasts.
The Supernatural Tower refused to admit that people who had walked down the evil path were still superhumans. Instead, they put their names in another list and gave them another name—lost people.
The meaning behind it was that they had lost their sense of self in the spirit energy storm. It was not their intention to kill, perform arson, or do something even crazier. They were also not related to other superhumans.
Naturally, the Supernatural Tower was only content after it killed all the lost people.
The main targets of the adjudicator court were the lost people. Most of them received their due judgment soon after they broke the law.
But a handful of lost people were able to flee into places like Golden Tooth Lair. They relied on all sorts of lawless organizations and used the safety of a large number of normal citizens as their leverage to run around in circles with the adjudicator court.
Some of the really audacious, ruthless, and eccentric lost people even swaggered around and committed crimes with a straight face despite being hunted by the adjudicator court.
In resignation, the adjudicator court could only announce a bounty rank for these lost people.
Meng Chao was able to remember Zhao Feixuan because in his previous life, this person was an infamous criminal. He had risen to the top ten lost people rank based on bounties offered by the adjudicator court, and his infamy was unmatched by others!
“Hiss...” Meng Chao gritted his teeth while enduring the pain when information rushed out from the depths of his brain.
The mottled images before his eyes turned into clear information, and he remembered everything.
In his previous life, Zhao Feixuan had killed a lot of higher ups and researchers of core projects.
Since he was a machine master and a runic symbol master and had also partic.i.p.ated in the design and setting up of defense systems of a lot of residential areas and important facilities, he could also be considered a machine expert.
The organization he was attached to could be used to fend against monster invasions, but it could also help him kill without leaving a trace.
All he needed was a screwdriver, and he could change the target of a few machine gun towers and electromagnetic towers.
He could also turn tools, facilities, household appliances, and even spirit energy pipes that could be seen everywhere into powerful killing machines.
His methods surpa.s.sed those of a.s.sa.s.sins, and he practically became a G.o.d of Death!
But Meng Chao could not quite remember why Zhao Feixuan suddenly started murdering people when he was a higher-up in a company with a bright future.
Could it be that he was the same as Lin Chuan and Gao Ye and was bewitched by an abnormal beast too?
After thinking about it, Meng Chao said, “Since this Zhao Feixuan is connected to Lin Chuan and Gao Ye and is also a core member of Blue Home, we should capture him quickly.”
Ye Xiaoxing sighed in resignation/ “We can’t do that. Knowing Lin Chuan and Gao Ye is not a crime. Joining Blue Home is not a crime. Spreading the ideals of the Home Party and going against the idea of colonizing the Other World is not a crime too.
“We don’t have proof that Zhao Feixuan enticed Lin Chuan and Gao Ye with his words. Standard Firepower is also a very famous company in the industry. There are also a lot of leaders from the Home Party among the core members of Blue Home. They’re people with their own businesses, and they’re all famous.
“There are also people who are partic.i.p.ating in the development of controllable transmigration among them. The research department and the adjudicator court might be able to act first before we make any reports, but we can’t do anything to these people.
“Got it.” Meng Chao was silent for a while before he asked, “So, how should I get closer to Zhao Feixuan?”
Ye Xiaoxing took out a photo and handed it over.
Meng Chao cast a glance at it and his eyebrows shot up. “Ms. Xiao?”
“You should know this woman.”
“Yeah. She’s... Xiao Fanghua, a teacher in a school located in the south of the city. She’s also one of the first members of the Broken Star Club.” Meng Chao recalled her very easily. “During the first few months, she came frequently to the Broken Star Club and often asked me for advice on how to cultivate branch meridians. Since her talent is high, she improved very quickly. She should soon become a two-star superhuman.
“But for some reason, over the past few months, she has seldom appeared. Even so, we’re quite close privately. After the fog descended, she approached me a few times online and bought a batch of sandworm meat cans through me. Then, in the name of the Broken Star Club, donated them to the citizens who are in trouble.”
“Xiao Fanghua is Zhao Feixuan’s wife,” Ye Xiaoxing said. “Now, do you understand why I said that you’re the best person to carry out this mission?”
