Grace Brooks finished her explanation, leaned back slightly, chest expanding, and looked at Brian Carter with a calm and appreciative demeanor.

"And this is the reason I'm sitting here, preparing to recruit you."

"……"

Her movement made Brian Carter subconsciously glance over, thinking to himself, "Her chest is really big."

Grace Brooks noticed the change in Brian Carter's gaze and made an assessment in her mind: "Has lustful thoughts, danger index reduced by ten percent."

"So just because I dealt with the monster in the café, they've decided to recruit me? Do they have other criteria? Besides, the 'pollution' she mentioned—is that the cause of the problems I'm facing now? If so, can they help me?"

Thinking carefully, Brian Carter cautiously asked, "What are your criteria for passing the assessment?"

……

Grace Brooks hadn't expected Brian Carter to have so many questions. She was just here to recruit, not to explain so much.

But since he asked, she still answered, "It's to see whether you lose control."

"It's already certain that there is a connection between psychic mutants, psychic monsters, and even those wandering lunatics outside the city. And it's also certain that the source of this connection is that red moon in the sky. Since there's a connection, we have to be careful about it. So our assessment is to see how well you control your abilities. Only those who can control them will be recruited!"

Brian Carter thought for a moment and quickly asked, "What if someone loses control?"

Grace Brooks was silent for a moment, looked at Brian Carter, and said, "Then you will become a new source of pollution!"

Brian Carter was a bit startled.

Grace Brooks quietly observed the young man in front of her, unintentionally catching every expression on his face.

He should be a very suitable candidate for recruitment...

His initial potential wasn't the strongest, but judging from the outcome of the café incident, he was the one who made the best use of his abilities. As a spider-type, he even managed to deal with a psychic monster alone without any help. Although luring the psychic monster when he was about to escape seemed a bit bizarre, weren't the others the same?

Most importantly, he seemed genuinely interested in these matters, which meant he would be easy to persuade.

"I'm actually quite curious about what you said…"

"And I really have been wanting to find a part-time job…"

At this moment, after thinking for a long time, Brian Carter slowly shook his head and said, "But there's a problem I have to tell you…"

"Actually, I don't have any abilities…"

"……"

Grace Brooks couldn't help but frown.

To have come this far and still deny it showed that this person wasn't as honest as he appeared—he might be a bit troublesome…

Then she heard Brian Carter continue, "Actually, my ability is borrowed from my little sister."

Grace Brooks's gaze grew a bit more serious. After a brief silence, she gently tapped the table and asked, "Your sister is?"

Brian Carter also looked at Grace Brooks and slowly replied, "The one who helped me escape just now was my sister. She's always with me."

Grace Brooks seemed slightly choked, a trace of gravity appearing on her face.

"Not just my sister…"

Brian Carter continued seriously, "There's also my dad and mom. We've always lived together!"

Grace Brooks's hair stood slightly on end.

At this moment, in the tiny metal earpiece in her left ear, an anxious voice was coming through: "Colonel Brooks, you must make a final assessment of him. If he really has severe dissociative identity disorder, it means he may always be on the verge of losing control. Not only can we not recruit or guide him, we must eliminate him as soon as possible to prevent a major disaster!"

……

Grace Brooks's face remained expressionless for a long time.

No one knew that all the muscles in her body were already tense, and even her hand had subconsciously moved to her gun.

She had long known that Brian Carter had many secrets.

In her satchel, there was also an old digital camera that had captured many scenes from the subway station.

Therefore, she understood even more deeply just how much madness was hidden within this seemingly harmless young man before her…

Moreover, even in the background, the assessment of this young man was not optimistic.

In the café incident, the only ability he displayed when facing the polluted was precise control of the body through psychic power, and not the "telekinesis" previously observed. This could mean he was deliberately hiding it, or perhaps he hadn't mastered it yet.

Most importantly, there was once a very bizarre incident during the observation of Brian Carter.

A dreamweaver had once entered Brian Carter's dream, attempting to make a reasonable psychological assessment.

But that dreamweaver never woke up.

He died in his sleep, with no detectable psychic residue at all. According to past experience, even if he was killed while entering Brian Carter's dream, there would still be some psychic residue left to detect. But he disappeared so completely that even Professor White couldn't determine whether the dreamweaver's death was related to the seemingly harmless young man before her.
