Under the Shengdu Business Building, in the temporary office of the Foundation, Wright Courand sat at his desk. After the briefcase in front of him was opened, the machine inside projected three invisible figures.
Write four words on the inside of the briefcase.
O5 Parliament.
The personnel hierarchy of SCP Foundation is not complicated. Macroscopically, it is divided into E-level temporary hierarchy, D-level consumable personnel, C-level ordinary employees, and B-level core operating members of local foundations.
Each member of O5 Parliament is an indispensable existence for SCP Foundation to lead the overall strategic policy. The Parliament they form is the highest decision-making organization of this organization.
And these three projected people, obviously, are all Class A members of O5 Council, because before their virtual shadow, there are three numbers written.
O5-11, O5-7, 05-5.
"Seven D-class members died and six C-class members were infected. Wright Courand, what do you eat!" As soon as the projection was opened, there was a voice questioning Klaette, and the voice came from the congressman numbered 5.
Some of the other two people stopped his irritability, but the meaning between words was also waiting for Wright's explanation.
It turned out that the foundation had already sent a commissioner to enter long before it got the female emperor's decree and took over here, but the result was not only that SCP053 failed to be recovered, but also huge losses were caused.
Captain Wright finally spoke when the three members calmed down a little.
"I am ashamed of my mistakes. I am willing to accept the punishment issued by my superiors, but please allow me to state the reasons for the next operational deployment." Wright stood up and made a salute of hitting his shoulder.
"Permit to make a statement. Go ahead, Captain Wright Courand." Senator No.11 said peacefully.
Lai nodded and sent a document to the three members opposite the projection.
All three Members who opened the document gasped.
"This, such an intensity of infection, even during the previous reception period, did not happen when doing relevant experiments." The tone of Senator No.7 was extremely surprised. Obviously, he was very clear about the reception situation before scp053.
"Suddenly, we couldn't determine the number of the project before we came here, and we didn't get the approval of the Shengdu government at the first time, but before entering the building, we had completely worn A-level isolation clothing." Captain Wright said: "Even so, our C-level members were still infected by SCP053 in the first place. Seven D-level members lost contact on the fifth floor. Two C-level members had a bloody struggle on the eighth floor. Only one C-level member reached the tenth floor, but lost his mind from that floor and fell off the building."
"That is to say, there is no way to get close, is there?" The angry Congressman No.5 said with a heavy tone.
Captain Wright did not continue to answer the question. The next major operational policy was the decision of these O5 lawmakers.
"Then I suggest that the regional destruction plan be carried out immediately." Moments later, Senator No.11, who spoke kindly, put forward a suggestion.
"Regional destruction? You are crazy! It's downtown! It's not wasteland outside the city, how are you going to carry out destruction!" Senator No.5 immediately questioned it. It seems that he talks to everyone like this.
"Internal blasting can be used to blow up the whole building while minimizing deaths."
"What about the survivors in the building?"
"The cluster mortality rate infected by scp053 is as high as 80%. Even if there are survivors in it, it is impossible for us to wait and die."
Several members began to argue. Obviously, except for Senator No.5, the other two are more in favor of direct regional destruction.
"Suddenly, the mobile troops that can attack 053 and the S-class protective clothing that can completely immunize its pollution are still far away in the north. Even if it is delivered by aircraft, it will take one day and one day. With the pollution capability of SCP053 today, I am afraid it is enough to destroy half of the holy capital." Senator No.7 said.
"Although SCP053 has extremely high resilience, such internal explosion may not kill it, but experiments have proved that she cannot spread pollution when her body suffers great damage, especially when the brain nerve work is damaged." Senator No.11 nodded and said, "At that time, we can easily recycle it."
In the face of the words of the two Members, even Member No.5, who does not support regional destruction, can only sigh and not speak.
After all, no one dares to gamble at such a time. Every minute and second may make SCP053 more out of control.
"Then, the decision is finalized, Captain Wright, please carry out regional destruction." The three members reached an agreement, and in the face of such a decision, Captain Wright got up, gave an scp military salute and put forward his own suggestions.
"Wright Courand, ask for the floor."
"Allow to speak, Captain Wright? What better plan do you have?"
"I ask for permission to be given ten minutes of free decision-making." Wright didn't explain his thoughts, or in this case, everyone knows how a waste of life it is to spend time explaining.
"Ten minutes? Do you know what each minute represents, Wright Courand, you may be responsible for your decision?"
"I am willing to take responsibility with my life. If my plan fails in ten minutes, I will be destroyed with this building." Captain Wright gave another military salute.
The three Members looked at each other and then replied.
"Proposals are allowed."
After the call ended, the projection also went out from this small office. Wright sat back in his chair, lit a cigarette and looked at Bai Qi, who was standing at the door.
Just such a confidential conversation, Bai Qi has been standing here all the time.
"Can I really listen to such a conversation?" The girl's heart has turned over the waves for the conversation just now, but her face is still strong and calm.
"After that, you will find a hypnotist to erase your memory." Captain Wright pressed his half-smoked cigarette into the ashtray.
"You already know where we are now, so I hope the value of you and your boyfriend is really worth fighting for these ten minutes." Captain Wright said seriously, of course, there was no lack of threats in his tone.
Regarding her boyfriend's statement, Bai Qi naturally won't pick this time to refute it. It should be said that even in normal times, she won't take this kind of problem seriously.
"I have already told you about me and Wang. What you need is someone who can get in touch with 053. I can get in touch with 053..." Bai Qi said, but was soon interrupted by the other party.
"Not now. The latest news is that all elevators in the commercial building have been shut down. In the explosion just now, the safe passage from the fourth floor to the higher floor has completely collapsed and blocked." Wright said: "That is to say, even if you can really get close to 053, you can't do anything now."
"What... What!" Bai Qi was frightened to disgrace. In this case, even her idea of going back to the building to save Zhou Wangjing was completely unworkable.
"But I still have another way here, maybe I can try it." Wright changed his tune.
"What method?"
"I participated in the joint experiment on 053 and 682 a few years ago. At that time, I got a set of S-class protective clothing. Since then, that set of protective clothing has always been the combat equipment I have to carry with me wherever I go." Wright vomited the cigarette ring and said, "I need your boyfriend to get this protective suit."
Hearing this, Bai Qi was immediately overjoyed, but was soon poured cold water by the other party.
"Don't be happy too early. I asked him to get this protective clothing, not for him. I want him to put it on scp053."
Hearing this, Bai Qi looked at Captain Wright in surprise, but there was no trace of joking in each other's eyes.
"Are you kidding me? Do you want a person who is now heavily polluted to approach scp053 and change clothes for this weird one?" Bai Qi was furious. "This is murder!"
"But this is what you have to pay for these ten minutes. If you succeed, everyone can live. If you fail, not only will your boyfriend die, but I will also take you and me into the building to accept the destruction of the area." Wright pressed out the smoke in his hand, his eyes were definitely cold and his tone was even more frightening.
Bai Qi has no doubt about each other's words. If she fails in the end, she and Zhou Wangjing will be buried with the whole building.
"Either die or do it, there is no other choice." Captain Wright put the gun on the table and said so.
"Tell me about your plan." Moments later, Bai Qi said.
Captain Wright was surprised to look at the girl in front of him. To be honest, since the contact, the girl in front of him has given him the impression that he is not a high school student who graduated immediately.
But in any case, it makes the deal between them simple, which is also why he is willing to gamble on them.
"It's very simple. I let the helicopter hover at a safe height above the building, and then hang the isolation suit on the floor where they are now through ropes. After your boyfriend gets the isolation suit, put it on her and take her from the lower floor. Quickly leave the building."
Bai Qi nodded after hearing this and said: "Let me get on the helicopter, I can find his position and send him protective clothing, which is more reliable."
"Yes, but you can't enter the building."
"Why!" Bai Qi was puzzled: "I have been close to scp053 before, and it is no problem to let me in."
"That's why you can't go in there," said Klatt relentlessly.
Bai Qi was speechless.
Scp053 is so strange that there may be affected differences among individuals in her field, but Bai Qi is completely unaffected and has never been seen before.
Since she can easily approach 053, it may be that she stole 053 from the foundation, or an organization developed an immunization method for this day, or... in short, there are too many possibilities, and any one of them constitutes the reason why she cannot approach SCP053 again.
Bai Qi wanted to say something else, but was immediately interrupted by the other party.
"The investigation and filing of you have been drafted. What you have to do now is to cooperate with us. If you do not obey and act rashly, then I will immediately carry out regional blasting." Wright said relentlessly: "When strange things appear, the lives of each of us are an inch lock on the suspension bridge. Don't think that you can finish all the work. Whether everyone can do their own thing determines the fate of all the people on the suspension bridge."
Wright turned and dug out a heavy suit and threw it to Bai Qi.
"Your boyfriend's life has to be fought for by himself."
Bai Qi looked at the S-class isolation garment in his arms. The alloy wire mesh on it had been seriously worn and scratched from head to toe. It was hard to imagine what such a garment and his owner had experienced.
So Bai Qi took a deep breath, stopped talking, and turned around with an isolation suit.
-----
"The file of scp053 was found." The voice in the pocket watch breathed a sigh of relief and then said, "You should listen to every word I say next. I will give you a brief description of the characteristics of 053. How to save yourself depends on yourself."
"It was discovered that SCP-053 was five years ago, when she was still a three-year-old girl. She had basic dialogue ability and was a little more mature than ordinary children in mental and physical development. Her personality was usually optimistic and seldom angry. Only when she was surrounded by many people would she become uneasy."
"Anyone over the age of three who has visual contact with SCP-053, Physical contact, Or staying around her for more than 10 minutes will quickly become irrational, Paranoid and murderous, in most, but not all, these feelings will all point to SCP-053, and the affected object will start trying to kill SCP-053 after killing or knocking down all the people in the field of vision. Those who try to kill her will suffer from severe heart disease or epilepsy and die immediately after causing any physical injury to her. SCP-053 can heal all kinds of wounds in a moment, no matter how serious. "
Hearing this, Zhou Wangjing turned pale and almost killed himself when he thought that he had just wanted to attack 053.
"Doesn't she know what she is doing?" Zhou Wangjing, who thought of this, wondered.
"I don't know, maybe in her opinion, it's just a group of adults who want to kill her going crazy and killing each other. Some researchers have tried to ask her this question, but they have never been answered." The person in the table said: "When you come into contact with scp053, you must pay attention. Never look directly into her eyes. Her eyes will cause instantaneous severe pollution, and no one can resist it. The second point is that you must not stay around for more than ten minutes unless you wear S-class isolation clothes. I delayed the spread of pollution for you before, but if you want to approach her now, there is only five minutes left. Once you exceed this time, the gods can't save you. "
"Then I have to take him to other places quickly." Zhou Wangjing looked at the injured outside the video game city, who were lying upside down on this floor, and said so.
Just as he was so worried, in the sky outside the floor, there was the sound of a helicopter, the rope ladder was lowered from it, and then a girl jumped into the floor from the rope ladder.
Straight into his arms.
