A surprise?
Compared to the progress on the parasites, something that could still be called a surprise piqued Lin Fan's curiosity.
"What kind of surprise?"
"We have confirmed that hosts invaded by these parasites have not died. Rather, they have lost control of their bodies. Therefore..."
"You mean the hosts can still be saved?"

Wei nodded in confirmation.
This news shook Lin Fan no less than Wei's development of a parasite scanning device.
After all, throughout this entire incident, the person Lin Fan had worried about most was his wife, Emma.
Ed was Emma's father. If it were truly confirmed that Ed had been invaded by a parasite and the original Ed was already dead, Lin Fan feared that Emma would not be able to withstand the blow.
But now, the surprise Wei had mentioned was absolutely wonderful news. It truly deserved to be called a surprise.
"Thank you!"
There were no excessive words, but Wei could sense the unhidden gratitude when Lin Fan spoke those two words.
Yeah, he was just short of bursting into tears!
A week later, over a million sets of parasite detection devices had been produced around the clock at the Bayerlan 17th Research Institute.
After receiving this batch of equipment, Lin Fan immediately launched a comprehensive internal inspection of Interstellar Fleet Headquarters!
The results were simply horrifying. At Interstellar Fleet Headquarters alone, they found seven people controlled by parasites, three of whom were ministers of key departments!
Lin Fan was utterly stunned. If they had discovered this any later, the consequences would have been unimaginable!
After escorting all the discovered parasitized hosts to the Bayerlan 17th Research Institute, Lin Fan immediately expanded the inspection to every fleet!
A full month passed. Almost every day, people were arrested from one fleet or another,
