I’m In Charge of SCP

Chapter 109: Into The Hole

In the darkness, Zhang Jue waited quietly. A few moments later, the person pushed the door and entered the room. The person came with a gorgeous physique, with a curvy front and back, and it was a woman.

The woman was covered with a veil, so it was hard to see her face. Like Zhang Jue, she circled around the hole a few times. Just when she hesitated to go down, a long black sword was placed on her neck.

"Turn around slowly. Yes, slowly. Don't be afraid. I'm not a bad guy, you know."

Zhang Jue placed the flashlight on his chin and turned it on while making a ghostly face. If it were an ordinary person, he would definitely be frightened by such a prank. But those who can come here are not ordinary people.

He saw the woman by gently removing the veil covering her face and smiled slightly, "Hey there, little brother. Goodbye."

What the hell?

When he saw the woman's face, Zhang Jue's jaw was almost dislocated because she punched him. "It's you?"

The woman smiled, very satisfied with Zhang Jue's reaction. "How about it, little brother? Did you miss your sister? I still haven't settled the score with you from last time, you know?"

Seeing this woman, Zhang Jue sweated coldly. Because she was the famous Alison Chao, whether you have heard it or not, you must know her nickname. The Black Queen.

The Black Queen herself is so mysterious that she is said to be the daughter of one of the Famous Four Doctors, Dr. Gears. She has an unusual knowledge of the Foundation's structure, activities, security facilities, and containment facilities, and there are even legends that she comes from another world.

Not only is her identity mysterious, but she is also one of the leaders of the Serpent's Hand. The legendary L.S (Little Sister) was able to freely enter and exit the Wanderer's Library, the headquarters of the Serpent's Hand.

If the entire SCP world is a chess game, all the peer forces are different players. Then this sultry-looking woman is one of the people who can land a piece. Both the SCP Foundation and the GOC (Global Occult Coalition) have suffered many losses at her hands.

It was just that for some reason, she seemed to like to keep it to herself, which allowed Zhang Jue to take advantage of the situation.

The last time they met was in the Alps. Zhang Jue arrived a few minutes early and obtained the dragon crystal of SCP-3844. Alison tried to grab it, and the two had a fight.

Although Alison was a woman, she was very strong, and if Zhang Jue fought her, he would have lost, and she will be the victor. Even if they fought for their lives, the result would be a 50/50 split. With this level of character, generally, they have their own persona. They can be an enemy or try to be harmoniously friendly.

Zhang Jue put away his long sword and said with an awkward smile, "My lady, why are you out alone at this hour? Do you know how dangerous it is?"

Zhang Jue raised his foot to slip away. Alison put her hand on his shoulder, "Little brother, you're right. It's late. Sister is a little scared. Stay with me, will you?"

Can I say no? Zhang Jue's mouth starts to get sour. But as a last resort, he didn't want to face off with her. After all, the Black Queen was targeting the entire SCP Foundation and didn't seem to have any history of killing innocent people on the ground floor staff.

Zhang Jue hummed and hawed. Alison looked him up and down, "Come on, little brother. You have found this place. Tell me, how did you get here?"

"By mistake, purely by mistake." Zhang Jue waved his hand repeatedly. Looking at the hot sister in front of him, he suddenly thought of something. Since this black girl had found this place on her own, she must know more than he did.

With a twinkle in his eye, A plan came into his mind.

"My lady, I'm not going to lie. I was confused about what I'd stumbled here, and before I came, I had no idea what was going on here," he sighed with a helpless look in his eyes.

"Really?" Alison obviously didn't believe him, "There are people who could have fooled you?" It looked like Alison had a pretty high opinion of his intelligence.

Zhang Jue held out three fingers, "If I lie, let me count my money until I die of exhaustion, choke me to death by a lobster, died from reading a novel poisoned by the author, died from nosebleed and blood loss from looking at a beautiful woman!"

What the hell kind of oath is this.

Alison observed Zhang Jue's expression. Zhang Jue showed his teeth and grinned, not faking it at all. Just exaggerating it a little, so he didn't show anything suspicious.

"Okay, I believe you now," Alison said.

"I, Zhang Jue, am known as an honest and reliable young man with an iron will and gold teeth, and I'm not just a name for myself." Zhang Jue patted his chest, gave Alison a thumbs up, and finally revealed his foxtail, "My lady, what are you doing here? You're not here just to see the scenery, are you?"

Alison glanced at him, looking towards the unfathomable hole, "It's rhetorical. Of course, it's for that reason."

"Ah... so all is well. Those Foundation scoundrels said this is a septic tank down here. A little girl's lollipop fell in the hole. They asked me to bring the lollipop back to her."

"Bullshit!" Alison grunted, "It's clearly down there."

"What is it?"

Alison was just about to speak when she saw Zhang Jue's expression, and she cocked her head again. "Little brother, you're trying to trick me. Aren't you?"

"I am most assuredly not." The treacherous plan had been discovered, Zhang Jue laughed and prepared to run away for the second time.

Alison had been prepared. She stopped in front of Zhang Jue and formed her hand into a dagger with a slight wave. Zhang Jue covered his neck.

Alison hid her lips and laughed, "You're good. You're better than last time."

There was no escape, so Zhang Jue sighed, "My lady, what do you want?"

Alison pointed to the hole, "I told you, I came for it."

Zhang Jue said, "If you want to go down, then go for it. I'm not stopping you. Life and death are in the hands of God. You go your way, and I'll go my own way."

"I was thinking the same thing." Alison smiled. Her smile sent a chill down to Zhang Jue's spine.

Zhang Jue clutched his shoulders in horror, "What are you going to do? This is too soon. Let me get ready first. I'm still a virgin."

"What a mess." Alison was so confused by him that she kicked him in the ass, "Let's make a deal, how about it?"

"So, it's not about that with me. I told you it's too soon." Zhang Jue sighed, "What kind of deal? I'm not interested in another forced buy and sell."

"..."

Talking to Zhang Jue is hard. Almost every sentence thrown by him was nonsense, and Alison had a bit of a headache.

"The situation inside this hole is unknown. I'll tell you what I know if you go down with me. How about that?"

"So that's how it is" Zhang Jue cupped his chin and pondered the pros and cons.

"Yes, but there's a big risk involved. If you don't tell me when we get down there, or if the information you tell me is false, wouldn't I be at a big loss? How about this, let's make a note. We'll write on it, and if you don't keep your word. I'll turn you into a dog."

Zhang Jue cracked his fingers and spoke one by one. Alison covered her forehead, feeling that there was no way to communicate with him normally.

"Forget it. I've changed my mind." She said.

"No, that's alright." Zhang Jue said, "So, do you have any plan?"

"I'll just do this-" Before Alison could finish her sentence, she grabbed Zhang Jue's collar and threw him out, aiming for the hole in the ground.

Zhang Jue was free-falling, there was nowhere to stop it, and his whole body landed precisely into the hole.

"Argh..." His screams continued to echo from below the hole, stopping only after a long time, and it looked like it was very deep.

"Yup, it's clear." Alison clapped her hands and also jumped down from the hole.

The night was dark, and the wind was blowing swiftly. The whole water plant was quiet again. Strangely enough, since the two went down, the entire hole began to shrink slowly.

Five minutes later, the original location of the hole turned into a flat-like area covering the whole above the ground, as if it had never existed.
