I’m In Charge of SCP

Chapter 174: Memory

Five days later, Yang Xue was finally discharged from the hospital. After a thorough examination of her brain, the doctor concluded that everything was normal. Zhang Jue was relieved. After all, he didn't have to feed a brain-damaged child because of a momentary mistake by the Foundation. Otherwise, he would have had to ask for support from Lei Shui.

After being discharged from the hospital, Yang Xue refused Zhang Jue's offer of a nice meal to celebrate and told him to take her to recover her memory right away.

Since watching the video, she has had trouble eating and sleeping. She could barely sleep, and she would always have weird dreams. Sometimes she dreamed that she had found the person who had pushed Zhang Jue, and sometimes she dreamed that the murderer was herself.

It could be said that she wanted to know what the truth was more than Zhang Jue did and didn't want to waste any more time. On the same day, Zhang Jue is also preparing something for this matter. In the words, he often used to Yang Xue, "If you want to die, I'll burn the paper for you."

After leaving the hospital gates, the two took a cab and traveled all the way to the suburbs. The scenery outside the car window gradually became bleak, but Yang Xue did not open her mouth to ask. Twenty minutes later, the cab stopped at the gate of a villa area. Yang Xue saw that a black man came out from inside and pulled open Zhang Jue's car door.

"Advisor Zhang, we have arrived."

"Hmm." Zhang Jue got out of the car and looked around, "How is it?"

"Everything is in place."

"Excellent." Zhang Jue snapped his fingers and turned back to her, "Dr. Yang, get out of the car. This is it."

Yang Xue got out of the car, feeling a little strange, and wondered what kind of thing Zhang Jue was hiding now. This was obviously a wealthy area, and she didn't know that Zhang Jue knew anyone else here.

Zhang Jue introduced the black man to her, and she realized that he was Zhang Jue's new assistant, Will Smith. From the way Zhang Jue treated him, he seemed like a capable man. Under Will Smith's lead, she and Zhang Jue walked all the way inside the villa area.

Although this villa district was located in the suburbs, the facilities inside were very luxurious, and the residents were either rich or celebrities. Yang Xue doesn't know much about cars, but she could tell that the sports cars they casually parked on the roadside must have been expensive.

Smith stopped in front of a villa at the end of the villa district and said to Zhang Jue, "This is it." He looked around warily as if he didn't intend to go in with them.

Zhang Jue nodded and extended his hand to Yang Xue, "Dr. Yang, go ahead."

Yang Xue gave Zhang Jue a look. Her Intuition told her that there must be nothing good inside, but she still took the lead and walked in. The villa's gate was unlocked and deliberately stuck with a stick, so Yang Xue opened the door as soon as she pushed it.

Just as she walked into the villa, she heard someone shouting inside, "You animal! It's blackmail! It's a crime! I'm going to sue you! I'll sue you!" At this time, Zhang Jue also walked in.

"Dr. Theresa, if you don't want Mr. Powell to know what you've done to his wife. I advise you to keep your mouth shut, or you may already be buried in their garden before I receive a court call." As soon as Zhang Jue's words fell, the shouting inside the room stopped.

Zhang Jue gave a heated smile. His words were a bit too informative, a doctor and a court call. Yang Xue looked at him, waiting for an explanation. Zhang Jue stretched out his hands.

"This is Theresa. She is a famous psychiatrist in this country. Powell is their neighbor and lives next to the door. I asked Smith to come to her that day and happened to run into her having an affair with Powell's wife. You know, doctors do be like that. They have busy schedules, so I negotiated with her. We've made a deal, and when it's over, I'll return the tape to her."

Yang Xue frowned, "And you recorded the video?"

"How is that possible?" Zhang Jue whispered, "Smith didn't have a VCR with him the first time he visited, and I faked the video."

"That kind of thing can be faked?" Yang Xue's brow furrowed even deeper.

Zhang Jue hummed, not daring to say that SCP-1004 was in his possession. Otherwise, Yang Xue wanted to see the videotape she starred in and put in the position of whether to show it to her or not.

Yang Xue looked at him, "What did you bring me here to see a psychiatrist for?"

"Don't get me wrong." Zhang Jue waved his hand, "Theresa is not only a well-known psychiatrist in all of the country but also an excellent hypnotist. Except, of course, to hook up with other people's wives for her benefit. With her abilities, you might be able to remember what really happened that day."

The two walked into the living room. They saw Theresa sitting furiously on the sofa, looking at Zhang Jue with an angry gaze but no longer daring to talk about the blackmail.

He sat down on a chair and said impatiently, "Mr. Zhang, I don't have much time. I hope you will keep your word."

"That's fine, Dr. Teresa. Don't worry about it." Zhang Jue heatedly smiled and introduced her, "This is Ms. Yang Xue. She is my friend. She has lost some very important memories, and I would like Dr. Theresa to help her find it. I will destroy the video immediately after the matter is completed."

Dr. Theresa grunted and pointed to the recliner next to her, "Sit here, hurry up. I have other client appointments, and you better not delay me."

"Alright, alright." Zhang Jue laughed, "Dr. Theresa, I have high hopes for you."

...

Yang Xue sat on the sofa. Her mood was a little tense after knowing that Theresa was a hypnotist. But soon, she went back to calm. It was still the same because she wanted to know what really happened at that time.

There is no false scholar under the famous name. The reason why Dr. Theresa could earn so much money was because of her amazing skill.

She took out a pocket watch and waved it in front of Yang Xue's eyes, who soon entered a state of relaxation. She felt herself surrounded by a cloud of warm water all over her body, floating in mid-air. Soon, her mind went back to that afternoon a year ago.

Back in the middle of that corridor. The conversation between Zhang Jue and Shirley, the whispers of the other staff, and even Dr. Li's gloomy face all came back to her senses. Not a single detail had been left behind, as if her brain never forgot these things. It had only been sealed away for too long.

Now, she remembered those things that were overlooked. She was like a camera that recorded everything that happened. SCP-682 was contained, and Shirley was about to be sent away, and just then, Zhang Jue was pushed forward by an unknown person.

There it is!

Yang Xue pressed the pause button. At this time, her eyes were looking forward. She didn't see who it was that had pushed Zhang Jue. But her afterimage caught a glimpse of the hand.

It was slender and long, also wearing a beautiful ring.

It was a woman's hand!
