[BL] Debut in Interstellar After Retiring as Grim Reaper-Chapter 105: The Second Interrogation

Chapter 105: Second Interrogation

As soon as Qin An decided to deal with the evil ghost in front of everyone, he already expected another round of interrogation from them. So when he saw the bewilderment on their faces and vigilance, he remained calm and continued dealing with the ghost.

Qin An continues shooting spiritual energy to Xiaopang until the resentment around him gradually calms down and the black mass turns lighter than earlier.

The crazy and hideous expression of him also eases until Xiaopang’s face doesn’t have the look of being hurt anymore. The spiritual energy he shot was not giving the ghost pain but it somehow lightened the resentment. Which also means that the evil ghost is now sober and willing to repent.

Spiritual energy has many usefulness. It rejects resentment and other dark elements so this can help them fight with the monsters. However, once the resentment weakens and the target is sober, its function changes and thus gives them a comfortable feeling.

In short, it is both a weapon and a medicine.

Qin An finally stop his act after a few rounds of shooting and look at the evil ghost calmly.

"Don’t do this again or I won’t let this pass."

Qin An decided to let him go. Xiaopang’s crime isn’t that too big for what he encountered in his past life. This is even just one of those victims who became evil for the bad things they had experienced when they were alive. For souls who couldn’t remember their lives and just act out of instinct, he can be repented unlike those who have ill intentions.

Besides, Xiaopang is also fortunate that the trainees who were influenced by the resentment are okay, especially Lu Nanxiao whom he dared to covet or else the sin on his hands won’t probably wear off easily. Qin An won’t give him a chance for what he did.

Xiaopang didn’t answer. He still looked weak and exhausted so Qin An didn’t mind him anymore and just focused on another important matter.

He turned his gaze outside and looked at the crowd.

He guesses it’s time to confess.

Inside the vacant room, Qin An was once again surrounded for another interrogation. This time with the Head Doctor Cheng Yu and Professor Jian with them looking eagerly at him.

The gazes of these two were like children expecting for their gift to be given. However this isn’t unexpected for Qin An. Cheng Yu is a doctor and Professor Jian is a researcher who has been constantly trying to search how to cure the number one pain in this era. The mental pollution. Now that they seemed to see a new hope in front of them, how could they not feel anticipation? As a doctor and researcher, they are keen to notice the miracle of what the young man did to the patient inside the clinic. He didn’t even do anything excessive and just put that unfamiliar energy inside Lu Nanxiao and the young man’s riot became stable!

Goodness! This is what they’ve been trying to solve for so many years already. Countless geniuses and people have died because of riots so they are very desperate.

Fortunately, Qin An didn’t prolong their frustrations anymore and started talking.

"Who are you?" He Li directly questioned with his cold voice. The sharpness on his eyes and the vigilance made it clear that everything about him needs to be wary.

Qin An remained calm amidst their vigilance against him. And this time, he finally answered the question that He Li has been asking him.

"A reaper." He directly confessed.

"????" Everyone seems to have grown a question mark above their heads when they heard his answer.

A reaper? What is that? It’s obvious that everyone didn’t understand what he said... except for Professor Jian who’s face frowned upon hearing the familiar name.

He’s a researcher who’s fond of the culture and history of ancient Earth so he clearly knows the reaper that the young man is talking about.

But what he was thinking is maybe the kid is joking. It’s clear that that name is from what he’s currently studying, the underworld. This kid is clearly a human, how is that possible? frёeωebɳovel.com

"Young man, what we need to know is the truth," he couldn’t help but intervene with a bit of sternness in his voice.

Qin An remains expressionless as he begins explaining things.

"That is the truth. The Judge sent me here to help the human beings." He looked at everyone’s expression. "To help you ease the danger of resentment."

"Resentment?" Cheng Yu asked.

"Resentment is the yin energy that comes from the underworld. It can influence anyone that resulted in pain, hallucinations... or death. In this world, you call it mental pollution." When Qin An mentioned the last two words, it immediately caught them more intrigue.

"Mental pollution? Young man... Do you mean ’mental pollution’?" Professor Jian asked with an eager voice. Qin An nods calmly, not caring about the shock his words brought to them.

"The resentment made the humans in this world turn the law of nature unbalanced. As a grim reaper, it is my responsibility to help you humans overcome this catastrophe."

"H-How?" The voice from the old Professor broke with hope and anticipation.

"Grim Reapers have a duty to serve the dead. Resentment forms because of the lingering dead around this world. Since the gate of the underworld is close, the resentment accumulated for a hundred of years that it gradually harmed the human beings. Right now, aside from eliminating the evil forces and serving the souls, I am also responsible to help you reduce the yin energy."

"Reducing? Do you mean it won’t totally disappear?" Ji Wen caught the word keenly.

"Resentment is part of balancing this world. Way back on Earth, you humans changed the world into an era where you stood at the top, controlling everything around you. This disrupted the balance of the world that’s why zergs emerge." Qin An noticed some of them clench their fists in anger for what he said.

"Isn’t it just because we want to survive that’s why we invented things that could help us live?" Hong Xinan couldn’t help but comment, feeling bitter about the truth.

"There’s no one in this world who can be on the top to control the fate of anyone. There are kings of the forests but they can also be a prey for other animals, humans can be said to be at the top of the chain yet they can’t do anything when it’s nature who’ll come. Zergs immersed not because it meant harm but the results of your greed." Qin An mercilessly spat harsh words to them.

"Evolution isn’t a bad thing. That is because you work hard to improve yourself, but how about the results of your way of doing such things? The Earth became a planet slowly decaying. It’s supposed to give life and shelter for you, but what did you do?" Every word that he pointed out made each of them recall the information about the history of Earth they found.
