Neurolink System in the Modern World - C.127: Blood-Link

30 minutes ago.

Kanon was driving when she heard her phone ring. She quickly picked it up and answered the call.

"Kanon, where are you?" Michael said from the other end.

"I'm on Goyang right now to visit a friend," she replied.

"Not good. We have an emergency. Meet me at Goyang Police Station,"

Kanon's heart raced as she listened to Michael's urgent tone. She quickly adjusted her grip on the steering wheel and glanced at the traffic around her.

"What's going on, Michael? Is everything okay?" she asked.

Michael's reply came fast and hurried, "I'll explain everything when you get to the police station. It's important. Just get there as soon as possible."

"Alright, I'll head there right away. Just give me the address, and I'll use GPS to get there."

Michael provided her with the address for the Goyang Police Station, and she noticed that it was the same precinct where her friend Yumi was assigned. She adjusted her route accordingly to make her way there.

She wondered what awaited her at the station and hoped that it wouldn't be anything too serious.

However, recalling the information she had received prior to joining the organization, she realized that this might be her first case as a CEREBRUM agent.

She hit the pedal of the car and rushed towards the Police Station , it was a good thing that she was quite close so it took her no time to reach it.

Michael was already there when she arrived

"What's the problem, Michael?" she asked after getting out of the car.

"It's a big one. A registered Gifted died just an hour ago," he explained.

Kanon didn't say anything; she didn't understand the significance of the Gifted person's death, so she waited for Michael to explain further.

"It would be faster if you read her file," he said, handing her a folder.

"We need to isolate this whole area. I'm already in charge of the outside. Lead the others inside to check the situation and report back to me. No matter what happens, don't touch anyone ," he warned her.

"Alright," she nodded.

As she open the folder he saw a picture of a a young girl with blue hair and beautiful tantalizing eyes.

She quickly reviewed the information in the folder.

=========

Name: Myeong Hei-Ran

Age: 18 years old

Brain Usage: 20%

Risk: High

Information: Myeong Hei-Ran was discovered to have the ability to make people sick by making their lungs constrict in an erratic manner . At 8 years old, she accidentally killed her mother when she made contact with her blood .

As a result, she underwent treatment and was released at the age of 14 after a full recovery. She was no longer considered a threat to society and was released from CEREBRUM Danger list.

=========

"Wait, why was someone this dangerous released? And it says here that she's fully recovered," Kanon asked with raised eyebrows, clearly puzzled by the decision.

"It's complicated. Let's just say that even in CEREBRUM, corruption and influence still exist," Michael sighed, reluctantly acknowledging that his organization wasn't free from such issues.

"Figures," she shook her head in disappointment . This is the truth about human nature; we can't avoid becoming corrupted as we gain more wealth and authority.

"AHHHHH!" A scream of pain echoed through the wall as the officer who had been covered in blood collapsed and began vomiting too. Coloring the ground crimson.

"We're too late," Kanon clicked her tongue, as if she had anticipated this.

"Everyone get away from him," she ordered.

Well, she didn't need to order me. Everyone unconsciously backed away, specially me. I backed away so far that my back was pressed against the wall like picture frame.

'Shit, I hope my endurance stat also comes with virus resistance.' I muttered to myself.

I hadn't fallen sick since I increased my Endurance, but I couldn't completely trust that. Who knew, maybe I'd just been lucky so far and avoided getting sick.

"But it's still a good thing I didn't get too close," I thought to myself, relieved that I had kept my distance.

However, my satisfaction was short-lived as I watched another person being isolated. It was Yumi, Ayumi's sister. Everyone had moved away from her due to the blood on her hands.

"This is not good," I clicked my tongue in annoyance. I didn't particularly care much about her, but she was the sister of my lover. I'm pretty sure Ayumi will be devastated if something happened to her.

'Let me check her status first ,'

"Cerebral Bloodlink?" I muttered to myself, realizing that what might be afflicting her could be a psychological issue rather than a virus. If that's the case, maybe I can help by using my suggestions to cure this psychological problem.

"I don't know why this is happening, but I need to help her first before I can make a move"

"Miss Yumi," I called out to her .

She raised her head and looked me in the eye. I could tell that she was really nervous right now, and I don't blame her. No matter how brave or smart you are, you will get scared when faced with a situation like this.

"Don't worry, you will be fine. You're not sick at all, and you're completely healthy both physically and mentally," I spoke as if trying to encourage her, but I had already used my skill, hoping that this would work. I said all of these things waiting to trigger the chemicals in her brain to fight off Cerebral Blood-link.

[Suggestion: Success]

"Bingo," I exclaimed, relieved that my suggestion had worked. I knew I would be out of options if it had failed. And I didn't want Ayumi to get lonely and heartbroken, so saving her sister was the right thing to do.
