I’m In Charge of SCP

Chapter 325: 2nd entry

After the first exploration was over, Zhang Jue and Sam returned to the villa from the fireplace.

Ning Suiyu, Old Downey and Morris listened to the recordings recorded by Sam when the two were undergoing a full-body examination.

When he heard Zhang Jue sing the eighteenth|touch, Ning Suiyu covered his forehead with his hand, and didn't even have the strength to roll his eyes.

"Station Master Ning, what's the matter?"

Although Morris and Old Downey could understand some Chinese, but they didn't understand Chinese culture, Zhang Jue couldn't hear any problems with these lyrics.

Ning Suiyu shook his head: "Forget it, record it truthfully."

After they recorded the recording into text and backed it up, Zhang Jue and Sam had just completed their medical examinations.

So far, nothing has happened to the two of them.

Ning Suiyu printed out the exploration record and sent a copy to everyone. Five people sat together for the third round of assessment.

Morris was the first to speak: "Team Leader Downey and I have read this record several times. From the content of the conversation, neither Consultant Zhang nor Sam showed any faults, and there should be no similarities to Researcher Hong Bo's. An abnormal situation."

Ning Suiyu frowned and said, "I heard Researcher Sam call Consultant Zhang several times, and that ‘murloc monster’ also nicknamed Researcher Sam, is that okay?"

Morris shook his head: "Actually, if you listen carefully, you know that Sam uses a different prefix when addressing Consultant Zhang. As for being nicknamed by local entities, as long as he is not willing to accept it and be called repeatedly like Researcher Yu Hongbo, Generally there is no problem."

Ning Suiyu nodded, but Zhang Jue raised his eyebrows, seemingly dissatisfied.

"Man, what is meant by ‘only speaking from the content of the dialogue’? Didn’t I do a good job elsewhere? Did I sing out of tune?"

"Um..." Morris paused for a moment, but still followed his own professional ethics. "Consultant Zhang did not do a good job in some places. For example, according to the regulations of the administration file, he is not allowed to eat in the'forest full of danger'. For snacks, you need to use a sincere tone when dealing with local entities. You can't lie or belittle them. Uh, Consultant Zhang, I just discuss the matter and didn't target you. The first time you enter, you have already performed very well, but if you can... …"

This Morris is similar to Simmons of site14, and both belong to the kind of character that has one thing to say.

Zhang Jue didn’t want to hear him continue to talk, so he waved his hand like surrender: “Well, I admit my mistake, I promise, next time I see them, I will be more polite, and no longer use words like'sand sculptures, silly|, forced'. , Alright."

Old Downey made a round on the sidelines: "These are all small details, and they don't affect the overall situation. Let's analyze the information that Consultant Zhang brought back."

Ning Suiyu took out a pen from the pen holder, took out a brush and wrote a few lines in her notebook, then circled it with the pen and placed it on the table.

"I have summarized a few pieces of information here. You can discuss it. First, according to the time of the recording, Consultant Zhang and Researcher Sam spent about three hours in the'speaking forest', but it is realistic. The world's time has only passed one hour and thirty minutes. That is to say, at present, the flow of time inside is faster than outside, and it is probably a two-to-one relationship."

"Not necessarily." Morris interrupted her, "According to the previous record, the time in the forest that the stationmaster Ning said is faster and slower than the outside time. In the most extreme case, there is A researcher walked in the'above forest' for nearly a week before completing the'necessary road', but only a few minutes passed by outside time."

"Okay, then this article will not be a discussion point for the time being, let's continue."

Ning Suiyu crossed out the first one and pointed to the second one: "Consultant Zhang and Sam encountered two'local' entities. Their dialogue is very important, and we need to look at them separately. First of all, I think that the whole body is long. The "feathered guy" is worth noting, because it has a name, and he also mentioned the war like the kobold Yu Hongbo met. It seems that the war was that the entities moved to the vicious forest. The root cause may even be the origin of this dark forest."

"I agree with Station Master Ning." Old Downey said, "According to previous exploration records, although the entities in this'unnumbered place' look strange, we can still tell from their remarks that they have multiplied. After many years, there are not many people who remember that ancient war. Consultant Zhang, if you still encounter local entities who know the relevant information, you can take the opportunity to ask them a few more questions."

"Ah, I know."

In fact, Zhang Jue was also very curious about this.

Because he still remembered that in the last conversation between Yu Hongbo and the ‘kobold they were looking for’, a word was mentioned—factory.

The factory is one of the hostile forces of the Anomalous Biological Administration. It was created by James Anderson. It produces a large number of malicious anomalous products, some of which have even flowed into human society and become the detention targets of the Administration.

However, in Zhang Jue's impression, the factory had already been destroyed by the administration, and that James Anderson was also dead-but that should have been a long, long time ago.

If the animal entities did not lie, the war they talked about may be related to the battle launched by the administration against the factory.

But although he was curious, it was just a job along the way. His main thing now is to find the ‘damn kobold’, and then follow the vines to find Yu Hongbo.

Seeing that everyone had no objection, Ning Suiyu continued: "Next, it is the words of the "strange-looking murloc" that Researcher Sam has encountered-the recent performance of the kobolds is quite abnormal. We can't tell. They met. Whether the time was before or after Hongbo’s accident. But I infer that it should be after that, because in this way, everything can make sense."

Morris also wrote something in his notes. He said: "No matter before or after, many clues indicate that most of the creatures in the'abnormal forest' are friendly to humans, at least they will not actively attack humans. , But this'kobold that Yu Hongbo met' seems to be deliberate. Consultant Zhang, if you encounter the'same entity' again, you must be careful."

In fact, without Morris, Zhang Jue knew it well.

"That forest" is anomalous in space. It is very strange that Yu Hongbo can meet the "evil kobold" three times in a row.

But Yu Hongbo did not notice this, and eventually fell into the trap.

Everyone analyzed it for a while, but they were all theoretical things, and the final result would still have to wait until they explored again.

It was noon, Zhang Jue and Sam had a bite to eat, rested, and then came to the fireplace again.

With the previous experience, Zhang Jue is already fully familiar with the ritual process. He just wanted to step forward, but was stopped by Ning Suiyu.

"Consultant Zhang, have you ever thought about what to do if you never touch that ‘dangerous kobold’ or ‘its home’?"

Zhang Jue smiled: "Thank you for your concern, but since I came to this world, my luck has always been good. Master Ning, you can wait for my good news here. I believe that I will have it soon. It's progressing."

With that, he walked into the fireplace with a cat waist.

...

Time and space passed, Special Advisor Zhang Jue and Researcher Sam once again came to this "forest where we need to speak carefully."

The time is dusk, and the sun shines through the gaps in the woods on the ‘small dirt road’, golden.

The surroundings are quiet, and occasionally I can hear the birds calling in the forest.

The two organized their equipment, and proceeded along the "only path".

This time, Zhang Jue seemed to have obeyed Morris's advice and did not eat melon seeds or sing.

One fat and one thin, one tall and the other short, the two quietly walked on the'country road', which seemed to be a very beautiful painting.

However, our consultant Zhang couldn't take any time off. He spoke without taking two steps.

"I said,'Stupid chubby classmate', how long have you been in the bureau."

Sam bit his finger and thought for a while: "It's about seven or eight years."

"It's been so long?" Zhang Jue looked at him up and down, "It doesn't matter how old you are."

"Yes, I joined the administration very early."

"Tang...Is that old guy always bullying you, is he interested in doing it with me?"

"Uh... good."

"Why did you promise so happy? I haven't offered a price yet."

"Forehead……"

"Well, I am teasing you. If we can get out safely this time, I will ask the bureau for someone."

"Thank you, Zhang E... but... invincible, um..."

"Don't call if you can't call."

"Oh."

The two were talking. Suddenly, on the left side of their ‘Road underneath’, a ‘white thatched cottage’ appeared on the left side of their ‘path under the feet’, and there was a portrait of a dog’s head at the front door of the yard.

The appearance of this ‘white hut’ was so abrupt, as if someone had been thrown by them in an instant.

The two of them kept looking ahead. At least a minute ago, there was no building beside ‘this winding road’.

I can only say that the space in ‘this place’ is abnormal and a bit weird.

The sudden appearance of ‘this familiar cabin’ made both of them stunned.

Zhang Jue carefully observed the appearance of'this building'. If he guessed right, this should be the'home of the kobold who murdered Hongbo'.

The two looked at each other, and there was a flash of excitement in their eyes.

What they have been searching for so hard, it actually appeared in front of them, and it was really no effort.

If they can see the "kobold who talked with Yu Hongbo" here, they should be able to know all the truth, and then find Yu Hongbo himself.

Zhang Jue has even made up his mind that if the ‘person inside’ doesn’t cooperate, he won’t hesitate to use force.

[According to Article 1.07 of the 4000-SEP-1 Agreement, you must knock on the entrance door before entering the building you encounter on the “road that you must walk through”. You also need to leave from the entrance when you leave. If you enter without permission, you must be careful not to be found. 】

Zhang Jue stepped forward and knocked on the wooden door with his hand.

"Boom boom boom."

He deliberately knocked loudly.

One minute passed, and no one responded.

Zhang Jue turned his finger into a fist and smashed it on the wooden door.

"Boom boom boom! Boom boom boom!"

According to Mr. Guo, in ancient times only funerals were used to knock on doors.

But it is also suitable for use here.

Because in a sense, Zhang Jue is here to report the funeral to the ‘people living here’.

Report its own mourning.

Zhang Jue knocked like this for two minutes, but no one came to open the door.

Probably the ‘master here’ is not at home.

A little disappointed.

Zhang Jue didn't care about three or seven and twenty-one, and kicked the wooden door open.

"Pooh!"

He took a sip, then swaggered into the yard with Sam's surprised gaze.

After entering the yard, Zhang Jue saw that the door of the house was unlocked, but it was open to the outside, which made him feel a little bad.

Zhang Jue walked quickly into the house.

The room was in a mess.

All the rooms were turned over in a mess, and the teapot was knocked to the ground as if it had been a thief.

Zhang Jue squatted on the ground and checked it. The tea in the teapot had all dried up, and only a few fragments of tea foam remained, probably since Yu Hongbo came here, and never made it again.

Judging from the traces of the scene, at least one month has passed since that incident in this ‘abnormal forest’.

While Zhang Jue was squatting on the ground to study the teapot, Sam was also checking around.

"Zhang-look!"

Zhang Jue looked for the reputation and saw a broken picture frame at the feet of Sam.

It should have been dragged directly from the wall and thrown on the ground. In the photo frame, there is a picture of the ‘kobold living here’.

In the photo, it sticks out its tongue and smiles and hugs another person.

But unfortunately, the photos inside were torn up.

The other person half disappeared and didn't know who the ‘owner of the house’ was holding.

Zhang Jue put on white gloves and carefully took out the shredded photos from the frame.

The photo is very old and has slightly yellowed. I don't know when it was taken.

According to Zhang Jue's interpretation, it will take decades or hundreds of years before it will age like this.

Not only that ~www.novelmt.com~ even the tear marks on the photo are also very old, I am afraid this photo has been like this before it was hung here.

Zhang Jue put the photo into a plastic bag, put it in his pocket, and then continued to search around.

"The original owner of the house" seems to love playing chess very much. Zhang Jue and Sam discovered more than one set of chess pieces.

They also found a man’s signature at the bottom of a chessboard: happybirthday——

The handwriting is small and smooth, it seems that it was written by a woman, and the place where the name should have been written in the back was randomly divided into one piece, which seems to be deliberately carved out with something sharp.

All kinds of signs indicate that this ‘kobold who loves to play chess’ seems to have indeed lived in human society for a long time.

More than that, they also found a beautiful jewelry box in the corner of the closet.

Zhang Jue was about to open, when footsteps suddenly heard outside the door.

Immediately afterwards, an angry voice sounded: "Who is it? Who is inside?!"
