Chapter 42: Publicly Available Intelligence - Mature Imposters

According to the literature provided by the General Investigation Bureau, most ordinary Imposters develop as follows:

1. Camouflage: From the formation of their Mind Corner, they maintain their original persona and lifestyle, and normally undergo Psychological Tests from human society. The more natural the camouflage process, the more humans they can deceive, and the more recognition they gain from the corner.

2. Lustful Venting: From the generation of their Mind Corner, the individual hears whispers from the corner daily. These whispers will stir up the individual's suppressed desires and obsessions, and they will continuously amplify over time. This includes, but is not limited to, violent brawls, exhibitionism, theft, and even murder. While maintaining camouflage, the greater the degree of lustful venting, the greater the impact, and the more recognition they gain from the corner. *There are also a few exceptional individuals who, even while merely camouflaging, are considered to be venting their desires. Some can even resist the influence of the whispers and perceive the corner in their own way, thereby exerting reverse control over their Mind Corner.

When the outward appearance of normal camouflage and private lustful venting continues for more than a year, the Imposter will be close to or have reached Maturity.

Mature Imposters possess the following characteristics:

1. Perfected Phobia-concretization: They can undergo systemic changes, manifesting the most perfect fearful image within the scope of what their brain recognizes and their physical body can endure.

2. Flesh Corner: What was once an ethereal Mind Corner can be directly presented on the surface of the Pituitary Gland*, or even the entire face. Through this, they can influence the areas they are most familiar with to form a Corner Space. *A mature Pituitary Gland is of great value.

3. Qualification: When the time is right, the individual will receive a special notification from the corner and obtain formal qualification to proceed to the corner through ████.
