Recontainment Part 2

As the two were talking, Dr. Li also caught up. He heard something and came up out of the blue, "Zhang Jue, earlier you swore that SCP-682 couldn't be killed, and now you want SCP-053 to deal with it. You think that big black lizard will be afraid of a little girl? Stop dreaming!"

Zhang Jue turned around and looked at Dr. Li with squinted eyes. Somehow, Dr. Li was a little scared of him and unconsciously took a step back. Then he felt a little humiliated and said, "What? Did I say something wrong?" Zhang Jue snickered.

"If you hadn't disobeyed the advice and insisted on doing the SCP-682 termination experiment, would things have come to this? Did you need to take so many people to wipe your ass with their lives? You're a dead gay man." This word seemed to be Dr. Li's scale of adversity.

He yelled, "Doing experiments, people's death is a normal thing. Otherwise, what do you keep those C-level personnel D-level personnel for? Eat dry food? Aren't they cannon fodder to fill the hole?"

His argument was somewhat similar to what Zhang Jue had said to Yang Xue before, but it wasn't the same thing. Sacrifice should be a person's active choice, not being betrayed and pitted by piggy-backers.

*Slap*

Yang Xue threw a slap at Dr. Li's face. Not only Dr. Li, even Zhang Jue froze for a moment. But he quickly reacted and clapped his hands, "Look, the chick can't even listen to it anymore."

Yang Xue lowered her head, tears falling drop by drop on the ground, "I remember my father once said that the Foundation is cold, but not cruel."

"Good!" Dr. Li covered his reddened cheeks and said gloomily, "Saying as if the responsibility is all on me, I would like to see how you are going to subdue the already berserk SCP-682. Originally, I wanted the security personnel to hold the exit and wait for the Mobile Task Force. But since you have made it like this, I wanted to see how you can end this mess up!"

"It's none of your business how it will end up." Zhang Jue sneered, "I remembered a man who lost a bet, how dare he make a big speech in front of his Grandpa?" At the mention of the bet, Dr. Li grunted and stopped talking. He had quite a high prestige within the site, and if he was made to kneel on the ground and call Zhang Jue his grandfather, he might as well kill him.

While several people were talking, a heavily armed researcher brought SCP-053 nearby and informed Yang Xue through the intercom. Yang Xue and the others moved out of the way and kept their sight clear of any contact with SCP-053. Only when they walked past did the three dare to open their eyes.

SCP-053 was just a three-year-old girl wearing a pink dress and holding a small bear puppet in her hand. She was mostly contained in a special room, and today she was suddenly brought out. She was a little scared and kept her head down.

Yang Xue looked away and could not help but show compassion. Only when SCP-053 and the researcher walked out some distance did the three of them follow, and together they walked towards the gate of the B2 test site.

At the same time, some researchers who were slightly more daring followed not far behind them. They had heard about Zhang Jue and knew that he was a parallel world traveler, and they were somewhat very curious to see how Zhang Jue could control the already berserk SCP-682.

Yang Xue used the walkie-talkie to tell Deputy Team Leader Wan Bing to lead his team to evacuate towards the entrance of the test site, with special instructions that his team members should not touch SCP-053, let alone look her in the eye.

The security team members withdrew from the test site one after another, followed by the raging big lizard. SCP-053 and the researcher with her were waiting for them at the gate.

"According to the usual practice, if there is a containment breach, the security personnel only need to protect the staff to retreat and wait for the MTF backup. There is no need to make such a big sacrifice at all. You have changed the protocol without permission. When the Site Director returns, I will submit a written report to him."

Dr. Li looked at Zhang Jue and Yang Xue, coldly said: "What to say cold and not cruel, in the end, does not still need to be sacrificed. See that researcher that's standing beside SCP-053, his legs are shaking. If your plan fails, what will happen to him? and what will happen to SCP-053? do they deserve to be eaten by SCP-682? "

As Dr. Li said, the researcher who sent SCP-053 here, although he was ready for certain death, still couldn't help but be afraid.

"Hahahahahaha-" Zhang Jue burst out laughing, and he laughed back and forth in a very exaggerated manner.

Dr. Li and Yang Xue looked at him simultaneously, and the researchers behind them were even more confused. At this time, he could still laugh?

"Damn you, gay man, when will you understand that sometimes. The gap between smart people and normal people is bigger than the gap between people and dogs." Zhang Jue patted Dr. Li's shoulder and shook his head, "What do you think I came here for? to watch the show? Sorry, I don't do this kind of thing to weigh down my colleagues."

Dr. Li and Yang Xue were a bit confused, not knowing what he wanted to do. The researchers also looked at each other, thinking that Zhang Jue was crazy. No one knew what Zhang Jue was thinking.

In the distance, SCP-682 was already roaring towards them. Zhang Jue suddenly took a step forward. Everyone let out a cry of surprise. Yang Xue had already guessed what he was going to do. Zhang Jue turned back and smiled faintly at those who had focused their eyes on him.

Then he took a big step forward. Although there were millions of people, I would go on. In front of Zhang Jue, although there were not ten million enemies, there was a giant lizard that was more terrifying than that.

Yang Xue even felt that his back was glowing. This time, everyone knew what Zhang Jue was going to do. Dr. Li opened his mouth wide and couldn't close it for a long time. Step by step, Zhang Jue came behind SCP-053 and patted the researcher who was guarding SCP-053.

"Buddy." The researcher, fully armed, mechanically turned his head, took off his eyepatch, and looked at Zhang Jue with a puzzled expression.

Zhang Jue smiled, "You did a good job, you can go. As for the rest, leave it to me."

"This…"

"There's nothing here and there." Zhang Jue's smile seemed somewhat magical, "The idea came from me, I'm not that kind of person that likes letting others take the blame. Go now, if you have the chance, let's have a drink together someday."

The researcher's eyes were slightly moist, "Thank you!" Under everyone's gaze, he returned to the group.

Up ahead, only Zhang Jue and SCP-053 were left alone to face the huge lizard that was running wildly. Their backs were so dazzling that everyone looked frozen. Zhang Jue once again took a step forward and came to the little girl's side.

He looked ahead and smiled faintly. "Little sister, what's your name?"

"I don't have a name..." the little girl was a little lost. She was holding her little bear puppet, "They… they all call me SCP-053. "

"You're so cute. How can you not have a name? I'm going to give you one - I'm going to call you Shirley, what do you think?"

"Shirley..." SCP-053 spoke it a few times, her eyes glowing slightly, "Yes!"

"So, little sister Shirley, there is a monster in front of you. Are you afraid?"

"I... am not afraid. Shirley is not afraid!"

"Good."

Zhang Jue wanted to touch her head. His hand reached halfway and then stopped. He shook his head helplessly.

"Little sister Shirley, believe me. Although the monster across the street is scary, I guarantee with my life that it will never hurt you."
