The SCP Foundation divides the institutions and facilities under its jurisdiction into several categories such as Site, Area, Sector, and Unit, which are collectively referred to as sites.
These sites usually have the disguise of a government or company background. For example, Site14, where Yang Xue is located, claims to be the headquarters of a pharmaceutical company.
Most sites containing high-risk anomalies have extreme fail-safe measures, such as built-in nuclear warheads.
Of course, this mechanism can be used or not used.
A lot has happened on site14 lately.
Among them, the most influential one was the failure to execute the 682 experiment, causing a lot of trouble at the test site, and finally being re-contained.
Zhang Jue's role in it is immeasurable, especially that he is immune to the influence of SCP053, which is even more surprising.
According to word of mouth, Zhang Jue's prestige in site14 is now very high, and many staff hope that he can join the SCP Foundation.
Dr. Li, who wanted to harm him, has become a bereaved dog that everyone yells at.
The deputy head of the station, Huang Xingwen, made a decisive decision and locked up Dr. Li, waiting for the Foundation to conduct further investigation and handling.
On the third day after this incident, the webmaster who went to the headquarters for a meeting—that is, Yang Xue's uncle, Yang Wenbo, finally came back.
After briefly bumping into Huang Xingwen, the deputy stationmaster, he greeted Zhang Jue.
Under the leadership of Yang Xue, Zhang Jue came to the stationmaster's office.
"Hello, Mr. Zhang Jue."
Yang Wenbai came out from behind the desk, shook hands with Zhang Jue, and smiled.
Zhang Jue tilted his head and stretched out his hand.
Yang Xue was a little strange.
This is not like what an uncle would do. He was too polite to Zhang Jue, and it was a bit flattering.
She wanted to leave, but was stopped by Yang Wenbo.
"Xueer, don't rush to leave. As the representative of the staff of this site, you just happened to be a witness."
"Witness?" Yang Xue didn't know why.
Zhang Jue said: "Master Yang, if you have something to say, there is no need to do so many twists and turns."
Zhang Jue's words were a bit rude, Yang Xue wanted to say something to make things smooth, but she found that her uncle didn't seem angry.
"Mr. Zhang speaks quickly, then I won't beat around the bush."
Yang Wenbai took out a document from the table and his expression became serious.
"Mr. Zhang Jue, on behalf of the SCP Foundation, I would like to formally inform you that you have passed the examination of the Foundation, and the Foundation will lift the restrictions on you and give you a legal status. At the same time, we also extend a sincere invitation to you, I hope you can join the foundation and contribute to the survival of human society - Mr. Zhang, are you willing to become a member of the SCP Foundation?"
After Yang Wenbo finished speaking, Yang Xue was stunned for a moment. The thing she thought about most in the past two days was how to convince her uncle to let Zhang Jue join the foundation. Unexpectedly, her uncle brought back the stamped documents of the foundation.
It has only been three days since Zhang Jue assisted in containing 682. Her report has just been written. Where did the Foundation executives know about it?
Yang Xue was at a loss. It seemed that the top management of the Foundation did possess many unknown secrets.
It's just that she hasn't officially mentioned this to Zhang Jue, so she doesn't know what his attitude will be.
Yang Xue cast a glance at Zhang Jue, but the latter was expressionless, showing no joy or anger.
Zhang Jue said calmly and authentically: "Identity, conditions."
Seemingly expecting him to ask this question, Yang Wenbo replied: "Your identity is specially approved by the O5 Council (the top leadership of SCP, a total of 13 people), a special advisor to the SCP Foundation, a B-level personnel, and was awarded a 4th level. security clearance."
Special advisor?
Hearing this, Yang Xue was slightly taken aback.
She has worked for the SCP Foundation for many years and has never heard of such a title. I think it was indeed approved by O5 personnel.
And this position is very likely to be established for Zhang Jue alone. As for the security authority assigned to Zhang Jue, it was even more frightening.
Generally speaking, according to the degree of importance, the SCP Foundation divides personnel into four levels: A, B, C, and D, and security permissions are divided into 0 (public information only), 1 (basic trust), and 2 (restricted) , 3 (confidential), 4 (top secret), 5 (Gemini/Thaumiel) and so on.
B-level personnel, 4th-level security clearance, this is already higher than most of the Foundation personnel, it can be said that it is only lower than 13 O5s.
On site14, he has almost the same authority as the two webmasters, only slightly inferior in rank.
She glanced at Zhang Jue quietly.
What kind of secret is hidden in this man's body, so that the top management of the Foundation pays such attention.
She gradually became curious.
Having said that, Yang Wensong kept his mouth shut, waiting for Zhang Jue's reply.
Zhang Jue pinched his chin with his thumb and index finger, as if weighing the pros and cons.
Yang Xue's heart was a little nervous.
She wants Zhang Jue to join the foundation. The knowledge in Zhang Jue's head will allow many researches to proceed smoothly and reduce many unnecessary sacrifices.
In addition, she also has a selfishness. If Zhang Jue can be immune to the influence of the SCP project, can she ask him to help her find her father.
After a long silence, Zhang Jue spoke.
"Headmaster Yang, I admit that the conditions offered by the foundation are very high, but if you want to recruit people, the foundation seems to have left the most important point."
Hearing that his words were wrong, Yang Wenbo was taken aback for a moment, then raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh? What is it?"
At this moment, Yang Xue's heart was pounding, no one knew this uncle better than her.
He seems to be kind, but he is actually thoughtful and skilled, otherwise he would not be able to serve as the head of the SCP Foundation, and he has been there for more than ten years.
The movement of his eyebrows was actually a harbinger of anger.
Yang Xuesheng was afraid that Zhang Jue would make excessive demands and the negotiations would break down.
She wanted to tell Zhang Jue that the conditions offered by the foundation were actually quite sincere, and it could even be said to be an honor.
Apart from him, no one else has been treated so highly.
But it turned out that she overestimated Zhang Jue's lower limit.
"As a recruiting unit, the SCP Foundation doesn't even know what its employees really want!" Zhang Jue shook his head, and gritted his teeth: "What kind of bullshit Level 4 authority, am I using it to have a cub— - How much do you pay per month, how do you arrange your working hours, 996? 007? Is there any insurance and housing fund, how much is the year-end bonus, and whether there is a share of shares - that's what the fuck I care about!"
Zhang Jue's expression was agitated, and he was quite annoyed. A lot of questions were thrown out of his face, and his spittle was flying.
Yang Wenbo was puzzled by his question. As the webmaster of the SCP Foundation, his focus was on the problems of destroying the world.
He really didn't know the questions Zhang Jue raised.
Yang Xue covered her forehead with her hand, feeling that her brain hurts.
She wanted to know if Zhang Jue had any shadows in his childhood, how he grew into such a freak!
"Okay, okay!" Yang Wenbai waved his hand quickly to stop Zhang Jue's continuous shooting, "I'll call to ask, I'll call to ask, I promise to give you a satisfactory answer."
"It's not too bad." Zhang Jue snorted, "Headmaster Yang, I'm going to be the first to say that, if the final result doesn't satisfy me—"
Yang Wenbo hurriedly answered: "Then I will deduct it from my salary, Mr. Zhang, so that's the head office."
"Well... okay." Zhang Jue nodded, still reluctantly.
Yang Wenbo didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said, "Then about joining the foundation—"
Zhang Jue snorted: "Since you are so sincere, Director Yang, I will reluctantly agree - I can't go back on my terms."
"That's natural." After solving the most important thing, Station Master Yang was in a good mood. He laughed and stretched out his hand again.
"Then Consultant Zhang, you are welcome to become a member of the SCP Foundation."
