"Originally, I wasn't interested in the topic of this interview at all, because I didn't understand all the disciplines related to the topic, like biology, pharmacology and the like."
"But I also knew that if I didn't complete this task, the editor would definitely be unhappy with . After all, my previous reports were not up to par. In order to salvage my professional reputation, I had to finish this task."
"I started researching information about the Eternal Life Factor online. I read many professional doctors' explanations of this substance, but for so reason, I always felt like they were talking nonsense."
"This was strange, I hadn't learned any pharmacology, but every ti I heard their terms, it felt like there was a voice in my head telling that they were all made up."
"Coincidentally, my girlfriend had once worked at the Life Foundation. One morning, her computer screen lit up, and a ssage popped up from a researcher at the Life Foundation."
"You know, the interview the next day was very important to , I needed to know more information, so I thought I'd take a look at the ssage..."
"What I saw was a docunt that exposed the Life Foundation's practice of experinting on the holess and other vulnerable groups, it was absolutely inhumane."
"So, the next day, when I interviewed Drake, I challenged him on why he was conducting such monstrous experints. I was so enraged that I punched him in front of everyone."
"I made a huge scene, lost my job, broke up with my girlfriend, was evicted from my high-end apartnt for not paying rent, lost my wallet and only had a little money left in my pocket, and had to move into this cheap apartnt..."
Eddie covered his eyes and said, "I know I was impulsive, but you don't know what I saw in those docunts, I..."
"Okay, I know, I was a bad guy, I've done dishonest reporting, and I've often misled the audience with words and pictures, but I think I did right this ti."
Eddie took a swig of the last sip of beer in the can, crushed it, and tossed it in a nearby garbage can, falling silent for a long ti.
His eyes were filled with bloodshot, he frowned in pain and said, "What's hard to believe is, it feels like... I have a split personality, you might not believe it, but..."
"Can you imagine? After Drake denied all this, I stood up and punched him straight in the face..."
Thor raised his brows, looked Eddie up and down, and said, "I didn't see that, you don't really look like that kind of person."
What Thor said was indeed true. Eddie didn't look very imposing, just the average adult male physique. His way of speaking and working perfectly matched his profession as a journalist, you'd imdiately recognise he's involved in writing. He does not look like the type of person who would arbitrarily resort to physical violence."
"That's why I said I might have split, you..." Eddie seed a bit unsure of how to express this feeling, he organized his thoughts, then said, "I just feel like it wasn't sothing I could have done!"
"At that mont, I was a bit angry when I saw the docunts, but then it turned into a raging fury. I didn't know where this surge of anger ca from, leading to act so impulsively during the interview."
"Just think of it as talking nonsense..." Eddie held his head in both hands and said, "I feel like there's sothing else inside controlling , just like you just saw, I..."
Suddenly, Eddie twitched. He opened his eyes wide and growled at Thor. Thor clearly saw so black lines spreading across his face.
Out of habit, Thor reached for the weapon next to him, then rembered he was on Earth, unard. But in the anti, Eddie suddenly returned to normal, shaking his head as if nothing had happened.
Thor patted the coffee table and said, "You might be parasitized by sothing."
Eddie looked at Thor unconvinced, he was a little puzzled. He felt what he said was crazy enough, yet the big guy across from him proposed even a more outrageous possibility."
But Thor wasn't joking. He said seriously to Eddie, "I've seen this before, it was during... my ti in Pegasus, one of my subordinates was parasitized like this. This situation needs to be dealt with imdiately, otherwise, it might lead to very serious consequences because you don't know the nature of the thing that's parasitizing you."
"If it's a kind of symbiotic organism it's alright, we just need to separate them. But if it's the kind that reproduces and lays eggs within you, then that's troubleso."
"You an... you've seen this situation when you were in the Special Forces?" Eddie imdiately thought of so human experints, biohazards, alien invasions and the like. He asked Thor like he was clutching at straws: "How did you guys handle it then?"
"Usually, we use a lightning strike, which can solve most problems, and our constitution is much better than yours, so even if we endure a few more strikes it's not an issue."
"A lightning strike? You an electricity? But..."
