I'm afraid of non-human beings

Lin You took a deep breath when she raised her head, and didn't relax until she saw the face of the person coming.

How do you say that?

... Unexpected, but reasonable.

The other party's reaction when he saw that the person in the room was her was the same, as if he had taken the strongest tranquilizer, his mournful face suddenly settled down.

"Great, great! It's really you—"

Guan Chuchu's face was as pale as paper, she kept stroking her chest, and hesitantly called out the address she heard from Geng Qinghe: "...Sister You?"

Lin You said "ah".

"Don't worry, it's me." She smiled, but the smile was fleeting, "Do you remember what happened just now?"

Guan Chuchu: "...Just now?"

"I...I don't remember," she said in a daze, still in such a gentle and gentle tone, "The last impression was the smell of kerosene...and then..."

Lin Youxin said that the familiar formula has a familiar taste, and she lost her memory on the spot after being overly frightened, as always.

"Then we exploded and crashed," she continued with a smile.

Guan Chuchu: "..."

Guan Chuchu: "??!!!"

As expected of a big boss, you can still say such things lightly at this time... Wait, the point now is not this!

"No," she said in a panic, "If it really exploded, wouldn't we already be dead—"

"As usual."

Lin You rubbed her chin, "I didn't understand it at first, but just thinking about it, I seem to have overlooked a possibility."

Guan Chuchu: "Huh?"

"There is such a concept in the Foundation's worldview—"

"Reality distortion," she said slowly.

"To put it simply, it is the ability to change reality...whether it is intentional or not, it will affect the people and things around you." Lin You pondered, "The foundation has contained many 'abnormalities' of this nature, exaggerating You can even get what you want.”

Guan Chuchu's face turned paler.

"That is to say..."

Lin You nodded.

"The fuel spill was real, the explosion was real," she said, "but the reality we're in is probably warped...maybe something like 'hope the people in that helicopter survived' , so we who should have died reappeared here."

Just don't know who did it.

As for where they are now—

Rather than having to go through others' narration, it is better to go and see it for yourself.

Guan Chuchu was still thinking about the so-called "distortion of reality", when she saw Lin You approaching, she subconsciously turned sideways, let her cross the threshold, and had a panoramic view of the corridor.

The door panel that was pushed open just leaned against the wall. There were iron doors identical to it on the opposite side and both sides of the corridor. Several incandescent bulbs hanging in the middle of the ceiling were still lighting up, but for some reason they flashed twice. It goes out.

Fortunately, only a few of them were broken. With the intertwined lights, Lin You could see clearly that all the doors were closed. Except for her room, only the one directly opposite was open.What was exposed through the crack of the door was the exact same layout as what I saw just now—bed, chair, simple sink and toilet.

"Where did you come from just now?" Lin You asked.

Seeing her pointing at another opened door, Guan Chuchu nodded.

"I woke up and found myself lying on the ground," she recalled. "After I came out, I heard some movement here, so I hurried over to have a look."

Lin You: "Didn't you see anyone else?"

Guan Chuchu: "Not at all."

Lin You said "um" thoughtfully, and saw the notice at the end of the corridor, which was exactly the same as the one she had seen on the agent's clothes.

No mistake, they should be at the Foundation site where they were supposed to arrive.

The only problem is - it's empty.

"What I just said is just a guess, but if it is true, then... either the perpetrator went too far and accidentally changed the status of the site," Lin You said in a low voice, "or—"

The other party has another purpose, and their "resurrection" is simply a by-product.

Forget it, guesswork ends here.

Lin You sighed, this is not the top priority.

There are several people in the cabin, it doesn't make sense that only the two of them were sent here.

"Speaking of it," she remembered what she didn't have time to ask on the helicopter before, and she walked around the corner while being wary of the movement around her, and she didn't forget to ask, "So you really have been in that forest all the time ah."

It's okay not to mention it, but when this was mentioned, Guan Chuchu's face collapsed again.

"you do not say."

Everyone who came and went was also acquaintances, so she let go, and said bitterly: "I was basically just running around for my life, and in the end I was almost stuck in the hole by a very big spider—"

"Spider!" Even in retrospect, her tone was full of shock and horror, "Then boss, his body and paws are covered with black hair, so scared that I would faint on the spot..."

Lin You had a subtle premonition in her heart, "And then?"

"...I," Guan Chuchu said embarrassingly, "when I woke up, I found it huddled beside the bushes, motionless."

"Should... be dead." She lowered her head embarrassedly.

Lin You: "..."

A real berserker, dare to face the dripping blood, dare to beat the giant man-eating spider to death.

Well, she silently patted each other, as expected of you.

Guan Chuchu was patted on the shoulder ignorantly, and was dazed for a few seconds, but she still took it as a compliment to herself.

"Did you meet other players at that time?" Lin You asked.

Guan Chuchu hesitated for a while before answering.

"Yes." She said affirmatively, "Because I have been hiding around, and saw more than one of them intermittently... I also calculated the number of players who may participate in this level based on the area of ​​the forest with them."

"...40 to [-] people." Guan Chuchu's voice sank.

"But up to now," Lin You remembered that the helicopter included the few survivors of the two of them, "even if there are still survivors who have not been found, the number is more than half."

"but."

Guan Chuchu hesitated again.

"The ones who were transferred here," she said, "we may not be the only ones."

"I was the first to be discovered by them. On the way, I heard that survivors who survived unknown religious rituals were also found in other places, and they have been handed over to..."

Think about this site too.

Sure enough, Lin You thought, is this the fifth level?

"By the way," Guan Chuchu said as if suddenly remembering something, "There are other things, I saw they carried something onto another helicopter and transported it away in advance, although it was too dark to see clearly... But there seems to be a cabinet."

cabinet!

After catching the key words, Lin You's mood suddenly improved a lot.

Although it is not certain that SCP-173 is here, at least it gives her a little hope that she thought she would miss an SR card.

In the empty corridor, only the footsteps of the two of them echoed. Rounding the corner, there was an iron fence door that divided the space into two.Looking at the stool over there, you can tell that there should be people guarding this place, but now everyone except them has disappeared without a trace.

The lock was only loosely hung on it, and with a single push, the divided space was easily torn out of a through hole.

As soon as they came to the other end of the corridor, they saw the double doors installed on the right hand side.

Through the half-open door, you can see the rows of desks and chairs inside.

Guan Chuchu: "This...office?"

That's right.

Lin You walked to the side by the window.

"I'm looking for this side," she said, "You look over there."

Although Guan Chuchu was a little puzzled, she still walked over and opened the drawers one by one to look.

"The employees of the foundation are divided into different levels. We may use high-authority identity cards to go to other places."

Aware of her doubts, Lin You explained aloud: "So when you see something that looks like a card—"

The voice stopped abruptly the moment she raised her head.

In just a split second, Lin You's pupils shrank suddenly.

She saw another face on the glass.

More precisely, it's hardly a "face."

The section is smooth, reflecting light under the dim light, as if it is made of some black metal.

The humanoid statue with this round head maintained a posture of lying on the glass, "looking" at them with that empty face.

It is said to be by the window, but it is actually just a window leading to the corridor.

It was standing in the hallway just across the wall.

"...Sister You?"

Guan Chuchu over there seemed to have noticed something, and was about to turn around.

"--Do not."

"no matter what--"

Lin You immediately stopped her voice, but the next second she realized that her tone was too urgent, she slowed down and said, "Don't do anything."

Looking at the humanoid statue close at hand, she finally closed her eyes.

Waiting to take another deep breath, opened his eyes, and turned his head back suddenly.

...Fuck!

Although he had already prepared himself mentally, Lin You still felt that his heart and lungs stopped working for a moment when he looked back.

The black humanoid statue that was behind the glass window just now appeared straight behind her as if teleported over.

It stood on one foot, leaned forward with its teeth and claws open, and its head was smooth and round, only two or three centimeters away from her face.The round stick-like hand also reached out to the shoulder of the person opposite, as if about to pounce on him.

Lin You breathed a sigh of relief at this moment.

"Okay," she said.

When Guan Chuchu turned her head, she was startled by this ghost that suddenly appeared in the office and cried out in surprise.

"Wow, wow ah ah—"

If it weren't for Lin You still standing there, she would have almost grabbed the stapler on the table and smashed it.

"This, this, this," she stammered, "what is this?!"

"SCP-650."

Lin You shrugged, "Scary statue."

"As soon as it's not being watched," she said, "then teleport behind someone and pose threateningly."

Guan Chuchu: "Well, then?"

"There is no more, that's all."

"It's simply scary." Lin You raised an eyebrow, "Maybe I like the feeling of 'I'm here to scare you'."

"Although it is harmless, its appearance here means that although the employees have disappeared, the contents are still here, and some of them can still move freely."

"It's very likely that there is the cabinet you mentioned just now, and there is a statue that moves at high speed and breaks your neck if you don't look at it. That's called SCP-173."

Guan Chuchu said "Hey", "It sounds a bit like..."

"...Maybe they are really long-lost siblings?" Lin You pondered.

Guan Chuchu: "..."

Grass.

Does SCP-173 know that you found a brother for it? !

Now she had a very dangerous idea, so much so that she forgot to ask Lin You why she knew what was locked in that cabinet.

...The other party's breath of relief just now was not out of fear, but worried that it would run away, right?

Lin You didn't know that her previous thoughts had been guessed to seven or eight points, and she was thinking about another thing.

SCP-650 seems to have its own set of criteria.

It can predict what kind of range is safe, although it will choose someone to follow to "scare" him, but only within that safe range.

in turn--

——As long as there is danger ahead or some scary guys will be encountered, it will stop there.

In other words, like an advanced card detector.

"Let's go," Lin You said with a smile on the shoulders of the statue's little brother, "Take me to find 'your brother'."

The author has something to say: SCP-650, also known as Xiao Hei, is the setting in the game "Containment Breach"

Lin You: @SCP-173 I brought your half-brother to find you

SCP-173: ……………Go away! ! !

As I said before, I wrote this article to fulfill some regrets and complete some settings, so... an old acquaintance will appear in the next chapter
