"My current test subject is an old man, who looks to be over sixty years old."

"He reacted to my movements in close proximity."

Lu Xin whispered, "Now, I'll try to knock him down and see what happens."

When he said this, he put his palm on the old man's shoulder, and then stretched out his leg to hook his leg. The old man fell down immediately, because there were many people around him. When he fell, he immediately bumped into the two people behind him. The two people stepped back and bumped into several other people. Then, there was a small commotion like water splash in the crowd, and then it was quiet.

Those who were touched turned their eyes hard and looked towards Lu Xin.

"Very good."

Lu Xin whispered, "Now they are starting to look at me, and the test results are ideal..."

Han Bing on the channel saw a corner of the strange scene through the camera.

She was silent for a while, then reluctantly said, "Okay."

"What was he doing?"

Gecko on the high wall, after watching Lu Xin go down, casually walked around twice, first waved his palm in front of an old man, observed him carefully for a while, and then actually knocked the old man to the ground, and his eyes were suddenly straightened in shock:

"Is he going to investigate, or is he going to test to a certain extent before he can whip him?"

In the channel, Tie Cui said coldly, "Shut up, or you go down!"

Gecko plausibly said, "Special Operations Personnel has the right to apply for temporary retreat when encountering unknown dangers."

"As a person with the same ability, I also need to apply for the right to retreat on his behalf when I feel he is in danger..."

"..."

Tie Cui said, "But you shouldn't tell jokes while others are investigating in depth."

Gecko lowered his head and thought for a while, then said, "Okay, actually I am nervous. When I am nervous, I want to talk..."

Tie Cui was obviously aware of his habit, but remained silent and did not continue to reprimand him.

Under the high wall at this time, Lu Xin carefully examined the old man and found that there was nothing wrong with him. Not only could there be no trace of Mental Monster's presence on his body, but there were no unusual scars, and even his body bones looked very strong.

The old man didn't seem to have any objections to Lu Xin knocking him down.

So after Lu Xin thought for a while, he slowly pushed the old man aside and stood in the old man's position.

Then he raised his head and looked at the high wall quietly.

After a long silence, Han Bing finally asked in a low voice on the channel, "What are you doing?"

Although Lu Xin was at the scene, she seemed more nervous than Lu Xin.

Lu Xin kept his movements and whispered, "That uncle has no other reaction except looking at me. He just looks at me. I feel that if I continue to experiment like this, I can only kill him... but the option of killing him will be postponed for now."

"Now, I try to blend in with them first."

"..."

"Integrate?"

Han Bing thought he heard it wrong, and his tone was a little strange.

Lu Xin lowered his voice and said, "Since we can't find anything using our detection methods and external observations..."

"Then it's logical to blend in with them and experience it, right?"

"..."

Han Bing suddenly didn't know what to say.

Although she felt there was nothing wrong with the words Lu Xin, she still explained seriously:

"We can't find the location of Pollution Source through detection. There are many reasons. It may be that Pollution Source is too well hidden, or it may be a pollution method that we haven't discovered yet. If Pollution Source targets only ordinary people, then it may indeed cause a situation that even those with abilities cannot detect. In this way, even if you blend in with them, it will be of no use."

"..."

"In other words, only ordinary people can feel it?"

Lu Xin replied softly, "Then I should be able to give it a try."

He thought of his past experiences, especially the strange behavior he had when he met an alcoholic just now.

He added, "Actually, I have always felt that I am just an ordinary person."

"Single soldiers say they are ordinary people..."

Han Bing, who was on the other end of the channel, didn't know what he was thinking, but was silent for a while.

Lu Xin, on the other hand, stood seriously in the middle of the crowd, stood quietly, and looked at the high wall.

After he stood for a while, the old man who had been knocked down also stood up. Instead of trying to regain his previous position, he stood silently behind Lu Xin and continued to look up at the high wall. Tears soon flowed from his face again.

The silence around them was terrifying, and after integrating into it, Lu Xin seemed to be no different from them.

"So many people had the same reaction, which means they were all affected in the same way."

Lu Xin was thinking to himself when he was getting rid of his distracting thoughts, "There must be a mysterious force that affects them, and they are like this. Then, if this force cannot be discovered by detecting the affected individuals, we can only try to integrate into these affected individuals and directly feel the force until we discover how it affects these people..."

"Finding how it affects these people is finding the logical link."

"When you find the source of influence, you find the core key."

"..."

After thinking about these questions, Lu Xin stood up straighter, cleared all distracting thoughts, and just looked at the high wall.

"What was he doing?"

Lu Xin stood quietly under the high wall, feeling it seriously, but Gecko on the wall was confused.

"Could it be that he felt that our chances of winning were too low and joined the other side's camp?"

"..."

Tie Cui in the channel suppressed his anger and said, "Shut up, don't affect the investigation work of your companions."

"Investigation?"

Gecko was silent for a while and said, "Honestly, I haven't seen this kind of investigation method before. Is it standard training?"

In the channel, Tie Cui was silent.

Gecko couldn't help but urge, "Come on, tell me, he looks so professional. How much training has he done?"

Tie Cui, who had been silent for a while, could no longer remain silent, and whispered, "I just read his information. He is indeed undergoing training in special pollution and mental abilities, but he has only been training for less than a week in the three-month training."

"In other words, judging from the special pollution treatment training courses we helped organize, except for the initial general classification of the special Pollution Source and the respective compensation subsidies for different levels, the rest has basically not started yet..."

"..."

Gecko was stunned for a while and then said, "Judging from my little understanding of him, maybe this is enough..."
