At that moment, the epidemic doctor who was thrown with a bucket of cold water finally realized something was wrong.

He suddenly lowered his head, the empty bucket hung on the beak mask fell to the ground with a sound, and Gu Lulu rolled to the cooking table.

The faucet next to the pool opened wide, and the water overflowing from it accumulated more and more on the ground, overflowing the soles of the shoes and wet the sides of the shoes. In the pool of water, apart from the hand holding his ankle tightly and the scattered long hair, there was also a swollen face that was soaked to the edge of decay slowly emerged.

The face pulled the corner of his mouth and smiled at him.

He immediately yanked him down with the hand holding him!

The epidemic doctor couldn't react enough, and only felt that there was no support under his feet, and the whole person drowned directly from the bottom up into the clearly only inch-deep water.

——Not even a bubble.

For a long time, in the back kitchen where there was only the sound of "Hua La La" dripping water, finally there was a bit of breathing that was originally suppressed. After four or five seconds, the tall man got up first and carefully looked at the movement at the door.

Wang Yiming: "...go down?"

Even if he knew that the opponent was under the orders of a certain teammate, he was still a little worried that a hand would emerge from his feet and could not help but pull in. His strength is great, the problem is that he can't swim! Isn’t it the right thing to cool down every minute when the water is closed?

"Well, almost." Lin You waded across the water and walked to the pool to turn on the faucet. "It depends on how long it can hold him."

Before the opponent chased in, she only had less than two minutes to think about how to take corresponding countermeasures.

The epidemiologist's abilities caused death to living creatures, and in her current illustrations, there were obviously no life and those who had already died once, so there were only a few in her count.

The plaster statue knows that the performance will turn her eyes and three hundred and sixty degrees to twist her neck. It is okay to find a quiet place to be a watcher-although she doesn't know how to communicate with him the results of the monitoring-combat effectiveness is avoided After talking, it’s more like a functional character; Mary Shaw is too restrictive, she likes to use some mysterious tricks to scare people and ask "Who is the puppet now?" Does Lin You think that an epidemic doctor who is good at transforming corpses will be Several puppets screamed in fright.

Xue Yao...80% of her coming out, she clasped her fist and prepared to do it again, but the problem was that she didn't know whether her level of blow would be effective for the epidemic doctor.

Therefore, Lin You hit the thought on one of the remaining people.

Now think about the turbid liquid that leaked from the crack in the door of the hotel room where she and Geng Qinghe were staying. She still thinks that the proprietress did this for other reasons, and she never came in just to show her face. Frighten them-she thought that this guy was going to use this to move some hands and feet before immediately flushing them down the drain with a sponge mop.

Lin You gambled on this, risking to use the last chance in the remaining time to summon the water ghost. The latter hummed unwillingly and admitted that if she had to act for a few seconds at night to make the area of ​​the water large enough, besides being able to get in, she could also drag them into the place where she was drowning in her mind. Piece lake.

Of course, it's one thing to get involved, and it's another thing to kill it. It was like she later jumped into the lake from the burning hotel roof by mistake, and the proprietress who had thought that she was revengeful and triumphant was beaten by Xue Yao.

The situation of the epidemic doctor is still different. After all, he is still a medical staff, and all the hard work is entrusted to the transformed zombies. This physical strength is average, and there is a guy underneath that is always pulling his hind legs after seeing the water.

The task of making the water ghost more convenient fell on Lin You’s shoulders. She unscrewed the tap to let the tap water flow all over the place, and instructed Wang Yiming and the others to put a bucket on the door—water has a natural bonus to the water ghost. , It is easier to pull a drenched guy.

"Shall we quickly take this opportunity to slip," Li Jing said uneasy. "Are we going to stand here and watch...?"

"You can't run very far, you'll bump into it sooner or later."

Lin You's tone is still calm.

"It's better to solve it once and for all."

She just finished speaking.

"cough--!"

A violent cough sounded from a place not far from the door, and everyone shook. The pitch-black epidemic doctor knelt on the ground, his originally loose attire of the Black Death doctor was even wetter than before, and he was coughing hard at the choking water, "cough cough cough cough!"

He took a few deep breaths, and finally managed to calm down his breath, before shaking his body, he looked here again.

"Hold on." Seeing that the epidemic doctor wanted to go this way, Lin You made a gesture of picking up the paper bag on SCP-096's head, "I will expose it when you come over."

She wasn't afraid that the other party would transform 096 or something at this time-the order to the water ghost was until he didn't have much energy.

The epidemic doctor really didn't move anymore.

Obviously, he is aware of the threat SCP-096 poses to him. The eyes hidden under the mask were fixed on Lin You, and after a long time, he slowly raised his hand.

—— Raised both hands to ears.

"You will regret it."

When he spoke again, perhaps because he had been entangled in the water for a long time, there was a little hoarseness in the voice of the epidemic doctor.

"I will regret rejecting my treatment," he declared. "Being at the mercy of a disease that cannot be fully understood is a cruel punishment. I can save you all. I am the only one who can do this because I...I am the antidote!"

"I'm pretty sure I won't."

Lin You pretended that her finger was still on top of the 096's headgear to test back and forth, "What I am more interested in now is that you seem to know it?"

It's one thing to intuitively feel threats, but he seems to know what it means to see SCP-096's face, which is unusual.

"Yes, yes... I know." The epidemic doctor still did not recover from the excitement. "We used to live in the same place. I saw it during the transfer, although it was just Walk back and forth behind the glass against the corner..."

"To be honest, I stayed there well at the beginning. They were willing to provide me with corpses to allow me to do experiments. My research has also made considerable progress, with only a few more experimental items. But there was out of control, and it happened that they were again I was not allowed to use human corpses for further research, so I decided to go out and look for patients by myself—"

"--and so."

Lin You understood the other party's request and interrupted: "What if I promise to provide you with materials?"

The eyes of the epidemic doctor clearly lit up.

"Are you serious?"

——In a sense, he is easily satisfied.

Just as he voluntarily stayed at the foundation, he would still be grateful for receiving suitable animal carcasses and think the foundation was very generous, the only goal that drove the epidemic doctor's operation was to eliminate the plague. And all the benefits related to this will attract him.

"Of course." Lin You said.

"So... if you promised this way," the epidemic doctor also knew that it would not be good for him to entangle him any more, so he stepped back and said, "please allow me to act with you in the future."

Li Jing: "..."

Wang Yiming: "..."

It's actually a bit easy to talk!

This was a secret joy in Lin You's ears.

"But, can't I really cure you?" At the end, the epidemic doctor asked again, "I will be careful, it doesn't hurt."

Lin You: "..."

"No." She vetoed it.

The Epidemic Doctor sighed with regret. The second after his figure disappeared in the same place, Lin You also had an extra SR card in his hand. It was the first time that Wang Yiming saw her doing this with his own eyes, and couldn't help but take a few more glances while exclaiming.

"This is resolved," he continued, "then go and put this leg in the coffin."

There are still three places waiting for them to find.

Li Jing and Wang Yiming wanted to leave, but Xu Yan stood there thinking.

"Translate what he just said," he said, "isn't it a containment breach?"

The epidemic doctor proved that he and SCP-096 were once contained by the SCP Foundation, and now they both ran to this station——

The purpose of the SCP Foundation is to control, contain, and protect, and the facilities are also very tightly guarded. But because it contains supernatural creatures beyond the scope of understanding, accidental incidents such as these guys breach containment and escape occasionally occur.

The Foundation often dispatches special forces to bring it under control again, but the "shy" people and epidemic doctors can come here, which means that this time is probably a very serious containment breach, and they have not had time to retrieve it.

Li Jing was still at a loss, "Then...?"

"Then," Lin You said, "Do you know how many anomalies the Foundation has contained?"

She was a "four".

Wang Yiming: "...four hundred?"

"Furthermore, four thousand."

Linyou said dryly.

"The inside is more dangerous than the two of them and better-I don't know how many ran out this time."

Wang Yiming and Li Jing, who had experienced the threat of these two guys to varying degrees, ran into the same spot behind them. It was hard for them to imagine how terrifying the remaining guys were.

"That, that, that now?!" Li Jing was a little panicked.

"Don't worry too much now," Lin You said. She remembered the toothbrush that Geng Qinghe had turned over in the movie theater, and she said that they might still be scattered in different copies. "Anyway, we should find the body parts first--ah, Leave this to you."

Wang Yiming said "Huh".

"then you……"

Lin You's lips pursed.

"I'll go back and have a look alone," she said.

*

Standing alone in front of the old-fashioned elevator, Lin You raised his hand again and pressed the down button.

The reminder light is on.

To be honest, she didn't know if she could return to the original platform if she sat down the other way.

But when the elevator car door opened, she still walked in. Following closely behind was SCP-096, which followed with its head down, and then found a corner in the elevator quietly.

The elevator door closed again, and when he slid down, Lin You glanced at 096 who was consciously facing the wall.

She refused the company of Wang Yiming and others, thinking about being alone—well, it can't be considered alone now—what she cared about under investigation.

Lin You still felt that the first flight of stairs was strange.

Since something related to that came in as an insider, "he" must know what "game" they are going to play, and it's a bit worth talking about from how to know it-going deeper, "he" Maybe you know who is behind the scenes; to make it simpler, there must be clues that they don't have on the stairs.

In case the remaining part cannot be found in 30 minutes, or the little girl makes a mistake, she wants to figure out if there is any way to go.

For this reason, the risk is worthwhile, and in order not to delay the overtime, she will come back and have a look alone.

The premise is if this can go back.

The car body shook suddenly, and the elevator indicated that it had arrived. Lin You was relieved when he saw that the platform was the first platform he had seen outside.

The track was empty, and the tram that sent her was long gone. She turned her gaze to the stairs directly opposite, and walked quickly over, this time without any hesitation, tore off the yellow seals on both sides of the handrail.

The scene before him changed suddenly.

As if in a flash, the stairs leading to the upper floor became a closed stairwell. The iron door was old and looked very firm. The handle was not locked, and Lin You could easily open it as soon as he twisted it.

She looked at the stairwell that was so dark inside that she couldn't see her fingers, and wondered what the original Ren Mingde was thinking about entering.

However, she has to do the same now anyway. There was no need for mental construction at all, Lin You stepped on the steps of the stairwell.

At almost the same moment, a shrill voice rang in her ears.

"How dare you come back," the voice that was too sharp to tell the age said angrily, "you still have the courage to come in?!"

There was still darkness in front of me.

Lin You couldn't see anything clearly, and the voice was completely unfamiliar, but listening to this tone, she suddenly understood.

This is the main body of the thing, instead of Ren Mingde attached to him may be one of the clones-or whatever. But in any case, the damage to the doppelganger's body greatly hurt his vitality, and he also deeply remembered his hatred.

"Because I have something to ask you," she said calmly, "it's quite a lot."

"You are dreaming!" the voice in the stairwell said sharply, "Don't expect me to answer you, but that's not the case, as long as you come in today, don't think about leaving again—"

"Well, I don't think so."

Lin You's eyes rolled, "Don't beg me to leave for a while."

The voice sneered, "How could I beg you?!"

The broken corpse is almost the same!

"Okay," Lin You shrugged, "you said."

So she took another step forward.

SCP-096 with a paper bag also moved and stepped into the threshold.

As soon as he noticed the existence of 096, the voice suddenly disappeared completely.

"Get out!!" After a few seconds of silence, it broke the sound, "Take it and get out of me——!!!"
