Outside the iron gate, there were disorganized and angry screams.
Wang Yiming and Xu Yan looked at each other, and just by this, they could imagine what kind of chaotic scene it was outside, but looking at Lin You's calm look—she really didn't seem worried at all.
Although it can be heard that the rip girl has the upper hand...
"You stop!"
A dozen pairs of scissors were scattered on the ground, and the human-headed balloon that was originally intended to be the chaser was now chased into a mess. It lost a bit in speed, and was once again grabbed by the lasso that had been broken in half.
The human-headed balloon screamed, "I see how dare you—"
It didn't even have time to say the next word, and there was another muffled sound of "cracking", and the new pair of scissors was declared to be exhausted, which also meant that the gap in the sling was pried even wider.
Guaranteed by Lin You, the Gap Girl threw the broken scissors on the ground mercilessly. She smiled gloatingly, and then stretched her hand into the collar.
Another brand new pair of scissors!
Seeing that it was only a little bit close to completely abolishing this rope.
The human head balloon can't take it anymore.
"I'm going!" it cried, "Can't I go?!"
The human-headed balloon dodged the attack of the Gap Girl, and wanted to float in the opposite direction. It's so dead, the door that it had tried in every possible way but failed to open opened at this moment. When Lin You saw the balloon that was sure to be cold and was about to run away, she immediately greeted the gap girl:
"Chase! Don't let it go!"
Human head balloon: "..."
Get out! ! !
It didn't have the time to take care of these guys at all, so it just rolled away. But no matter how hard she drove, she still couldn't get rid of the galloping Gap Girl—
Hurriedly stopping the car before hitting the wall at the fork, the head balloon looked around and suddenly had a plan.
The Gap Girl brandished the scissors and chased to the intersection. The next moment, she froze in place.
... people
The corridor was empty, and no matter how hard I searched, I couldn't find any trace of the human head balloon that seemed to be enlarged in proportion to the human head. The Gap Girl stomped her feet resentfully, and chased after her in the direction she remembered.
Behind her, footsteps were heard in the distance, and human-head balloons slowly emerged from between the flower pots in the flower shop.
The flowers and green leaves are as dilapidated as this station, drooping withered and yellow.
But it’s still possible to use them and the unevenly displayed shelves to hide it. Looking at the back of the girl with a gap, the head balloon smiled contemptuously, and was about to float back again.
... why didn't you move
Feeling being pulled by something imperceptibly, the head balloon was pulled again without even thinking about it.
"Shhh."
Contempt turned to rigidity, and it looked down in disbelief.
There is only a little sticky noose hanging on the doorknob, which should have been brought on when he was about to go out. And under this involuntary tugging—
Its rope was snapped by itself.
The more the Gap Girl chases after her, the more she feels something is wrong.
She crossed another intersection suspiciously, but still saw no shadow.
The time is running out, and the Gap Girl is going to turn the next corner, but if she can't find it, she has to go back.
Unexpectedly, she collided with the guy with two long arms in the next second.
Pale, hairless, and so skinny that ribs and pelvis are clearly visible. The creature's hands were still dripping with blood that tore through the human body. At this moment, it felt the existence of the Gap Woman, and then lowered its head. Its mouth was wide open, and the opening angle of the jaw was four times that of a normal person.
Gap Girl: "Ah-"
What the hell is this? !
SCP-096: "Ahh—"
It was seen again!
The Gap Girl is very clear about her own strength, and she can still fight against the head balloon. At this time, after feeling the coercion from the opponent, she immediately decided to turn around and run away!
Saddened by being seen, SCP-096 buried his face behind his palms, sobbed in a low voice for a few seconds, then leapt towards the opponent with his long legs aside!
One was running in front, and the other was chasing after. The picture seemed to be lost when she popped the head balloon.
However, just before SCP-096 screamed in pain and grabbed the big hand towards the woman with the slit, the latter's eyes lit up as if thinking of something, and he stomped his feet vigorously—
She disappeared out of thin air.
Reaching out to grab an empty hand, SCP-096 stood there in a daze.
It can still vaguely feel the existence of the other party, but it can't tear the space to chase in. After all, it can catch up to the moon with speed, but it doesn't have the ability to do that.
Realizing this, he covered his face with his hands again, and wept even more bitterly.
—Where can this be justified.
"strangeness… "
Lin You stared at the card inserted in the illustrated book, "It's less than five minutes?"
"What is this?" Wang Yiming was still in a state of confusion, so he leaned over to watch together, "Slender Ghost, Needle Girl... Fuck, isn't this the one that was mentioned on the radio?"
Xu Yan was overwhelmed by his reflex arc.
"Isn't the Gap Girl too?" he said.
"yes!"
Wang Yiming was stunned, "So these are all those... You subdued them all?!"
Lin You said "Hmm", "It's about the same, anyway—"
She suddenly caught a glimpse of a white arm sticking out from behind the wall not far away.
"Close your eyes!" Lin You shouted.
I have already experienced the unforgettable memories of walking past SCP-096, and now I immediately understand what she means. The three of them closed their eyes tightly, listening to the screaming sound of 096 getting closer.
Then, it stopped beside the ear.
There were whimpers so close that Wang Yiming's scalp was about to explode.
"What the hell is going on?!" He said with difficulty, "Why did it stop here and not go away!"
Lin You: "..."
She guessed it.
Fortunately, the moment 096 appeared, she took the illustration book back with a wave of her hand.
I'm afraid the Gap Girl accidentally bumped into SCP-096 while chasing the head balloon, and that's why she came back early. But the latter's speed is fast, but he can't get into the gap in the illustrated book that exists in another dimension at this time.
Although Lin You is the owner of the illustrated book, she has never seen its face directly. Of course, 096 will not do anything to her.
"Listen to me," Lin You closed her eyes and said, "You two go back to the warehouse and find a paper bag to put it in, hurry up!"
SCP-096 didn't care about their reaction, it only felt that this matter had something to do with Lin You, so it stood beside her and wailed indistinctly.
Wang Yiming quickly brought the things. But as soon as he got close to 096, he had to close his eyes again.
Scratching blind in the darkness, he frantically tried to figure out where the monster's head was, and pulled the paper bag nervously, only to hear a "hiss"—
Wang Yiming: "..."
He awkwardly rubbed the paper bag that he had torn in half, he really didn't mean it.
"Okay, I'll come," Xu Yan on the side stepped forward consciously, "Fortunately, I took an extra one just to be on the safe side."
His physique is not as good as Wang Yiming's, but his movements are much more stable. Following the impression of where SCP-096 should be, he firmly put the paper bag on it.
At the moment when it was covered by the paper bag, 096's crying became softer, and the three of them heaved a sigh of relief and opened their eyes one after another.
SCP-096, with its head covered in a paper bag, looked much more docile, but its bloody hands undoubtedly reminded them of what it had done.
"Just let it follow?"
Seeing 096 catching up step by step, Wang Yiming hesitated and said, "This is too—"
"It's still the same reason," Lin You said, "as long as you don't see its face, you can't drive it away even if you want to."
Too.
Wang Yiming stabilized his beating heart. It was the best solution to do this now, and the time limit was only about ten minutes away. What he needed to pay attention to was how to catch the traitor and get his body back.
The restriction of not being able to turn back is quite large, not to mention that there is a frightening tail behind him.
They hurriedly searched the shops they passed along the way, and at the same time, they were also paying attention to whether any teammates were nearby. Finally, after passing through the blood-stained family supermarket, I heard someone greet me.
"Brother Wang!"
The man whispered: "Brother Wang, we are here!"
They were teammates they had met before. Three or two people gathered behind the wall. When he saw the face of one of them clearly, Wang Yiming's eyes turned red instantly.
"You kid—" He strode forward and grabbed the opponent by the collar, "How dare you hide here with them?!"
Ren Mingde was pulled in his hand, and even half of his glasses fell off crookedly. He looked at the tall and burly Wang Yiming in horror, as if he couldn't understand what he was saying.
"Brother Wang?" The teammate next to him was also dumbfounded, and quickly helped to pull it away, "Brother Wang, what are you doing, Xiao Ren just joined us—"
"You're still young!"
Wang Yiming said angrily, "I've been dropped! This is the mole—hey, I caught the mole, did you hear that? Hurry up and start overtime?!"
There was no sound on the radio, and he couldn't help being taken aback.
"Let me ask you," Lin You said, "Where's Li Jing?"
Ren Mingde looked bewildered.
"Li Jing? We got separated halfway, and now I don't know where she is."
"Stop pretending!" Wang Yiming threatened angrily, "Where did you hide your body?!"
Lin You noticed that Ren Mingde's eyes flickered.
"I don't understand what you are talking about, I am trying to find it too."
"There's no use asking these."
Xu Yan said coolly.
"Just ask him what his profession is."
"Occupation?" Ren Mingde's eyes flickered, "Of course—of course he's a student."
Xu Yan: "Skill?"
Ren Mingde opened his mouth, obviously trying to find the answer to this question. He couldn't answer for a long time, and the teammate who believed him at first showed vigilance and stepped back.
"ha-"
Realizing that he had revealed himself, Ren Mingde suddenly bent down. Amidst the loud laughter, he took off his glasses, and when he straightened up again, the original confusion and cowardice were no longer in his eyes.
"Yes, I am, but what's the use of that, do you think it's over?" He asked, "Remember the content of the broadcast, as long as you don't catch me, everything is useless!"
His face began to deform.
The nose collapsed, the eyes stretched out—
"You can't catch it," he declared triumphantly.
"Back back." Lin You said suddenly.
Although he didn't know what she wanted to do, Wang Yiming, who was standing at the front, reflexively took a few steps back, and also helped other teammates by the way.
"I said," she raised her voice, "I'll call you, do you dare to look this way?"
"Ren Mingde" sneered upon hearing this, and looked sideways.
"Why don't you dare-"
Lin You raised her hand without looking back, and tore off the paper bag from 096's head.
