I’m In Charge of SCP

Chapter 96: Rescue

It was dark. Dark clouds were thick in the distance. The sea has become quieter.

Anyone who lives by the sea all the time knows that this is not a good thing. As Zhang Jue said, a storm was coming. Sensing the abnormal weather, everyone put down the work in their hands and looked into the distance. These passengers had just experienced a plane crash, and it was a miracle that they survived. If they were to encounter another problem, some wounded people would probably have to die.

Kareena's face is even paler. Not to mention that she is now weak. In the face of the power of nature, there is no way to preserve so many people.

The danger would descend in a few hours, and the island would become a tomb for everyone.

Zhang Jue narrowed his eyes and started to count the passengers and crew onshore.

Twenty-three women, twenty-five men, and a child of a few years old. Transferring all of these people into the Pocket Dimension would consume a great deal of his mental energy. It's not even worth the risk in front of these people.

These people might even report him to the government to receive a huge bonus. It didn't fit his utilitarian persona at all. But Zhang Jue was indeed considering the matter for a simple reason. He wanted to return a favor to Kareena, that was all.

Just as Zhang Jue considered the possibilities, a helicopter suddenly appeared in view. It appeared so abruptly that everyone froze, then shouted frantically, afraid of the danger incoming. Help had come so quickly?

Zhang Jue felt a little incredulous. It had only been a few hours since the plane had crashed, and their distress signal hadn't even been sent out yet, so how could anyone know where they were?

Helicopters were not like other aircraft. They flew short distances and slow speeds and could not be used for search and rescue missions unless the target location had been confirmed. But the reality is so magical. Without the slightest hesitation, the helicopter made its way forward, targeting what appeared to be the island they were on.

Something was wrong. Zhang Jue narrowed his eyes.

He didn't believe there was such a coincidence in the world that they had just been stranded, and someone had come to their rescue. They might have been sent by the enemy to finish the job.

He was about to pull Kareena into hiding when the helicopter suddenly flashed up with lights of varying lengths.

He immediately recognized it as Morse code.

... -. --... --.

SCP.

Zhang Jue was also stunned. Was it someone from the SCP Foundation? Or could he have guessed it wrong? But one could not rule out the possibility that it was the enemy trying to trick him. It was a matter of probability. Zhang Jue sighed and simply stopped walking, staying to see who was coming.

The helicopter made its way forward, and five minutes later, it finally arrived over the island. The hatch opened, and a person who was least expected to be here appeared. Getting a good look at her, Zhang Jue's mouth dropped open, seriously wondering if he was hallucinating.

"Zhang Jue!" Yang Xue was in the helicopter, waving her arms.

-----

"Our current location is the northern coast of the Mediterranean Sea, near an island called Camilette in Italy. According to the Foundation's internal weather system forecast, the storm will hit in three hours. There are two more vehicles behind us. As soon as they arrive, we'll leave here immediately."

Yang Xue had the information in her hands in the makeshift tent, explaining the current situation to Zhang Jue. But Zhang Jue wasn't even listening to what she was saying, and he just kept staring at her.

Yang Xue was a little embarrassed by his stare and asked, "What's wrong?"

"How did you find us?" Zhang Jue took the map from her hand and threw it aside, "Doctor Yang, I haven't seen you for more than a month. Did you learn the Immortal Art of Foresight? Can you teach me? it's just that I'm free in the evening so that we can have a deeper exchange."

Zhang Jue said this. Naturally, Yang Xue glanced at him and said softly, "Don't talk nonsense."

Next to him, besides other staff members, there was a teenage girl. "It's okay. It's okay. You guys can talk to each other. Just pretend I don't exist." Kareena looked at Zhang Jue and then at Yang Xue. A hint of excitement flashed in her eyes. Her dream was to join the Foundation and become a researcher for the Foundation, and Yang Xue's competent look was exactly what her heart yearned for.

Yang Xue looked at the little girl and then at Zhang Jue. Both of them kept staring at her, with the attitude that if she didn't tell him about it, he'd stay here today. Yang Xue knew he could definitely do it.

"Okay." Yang Xue sighed, "Remember, when you were leaving, you said you had a bad feeling? In fact, I also had it. So I put a GPS locator on you. After your return flight, the tower lost your signal, and I immediately contacted the Foundation headquarters. They sent a special helicopter to pick me up."

"GPS locator? Where is it?" Hearing Yang Xue says that Zhang Jue hurriedly checked his body but didn't find anything like it. If he went out to steal food in the future, he would be caught in a minute. He frowned.

In the countless "exchanges" between the two, Yang Xue easily won once, and she laughed, "I'm not telling you, you can find it yourself."

"Damn you" Zhang Jue grunted, no longer dwelling on this matter. As long as the thing is on him, he can find it sooner or later. The two of them were talking when there was a sudden commotion outside.

Zhang Jue lifted the tent to see the two transport planes coming from the back, both with big SCP logos on them. Some of the passengers were a little surprised because they had no idea what SCP was, let alone why it wasn't government people coming to pick them up, but instead this organization whose name they hadn't heard of.

Yang Xue looked at the little girl beside Zhang Jue. Zhang Jue knew what she meant and shook her head gently. With a twinkle in her eye, Kareena asked, "Sister Yang Xue, are you guys trying to perform memory deletion on me?"

Yang Xue froze, somewhat wondering why this little girl knew this word.

On the other hand, Zhang Jue waved his hand and said, "Her situation is rather special. I'll explain it to you later."

On the way back, Kareena kept relying on Zhang Jue and insisted on sharing the same plane with Yang Xue. She called her sister Yang Xue bit by bit, and her attitude was much better than when she was facing Zhang Jue.

Zhang Jue whispered her story to Yang Xue, and after hearing it, Yang Xue sighed. She could understand the pain of not having her parents with her since she was a child. The company's main goal is to provide a better solution to the problem.

"Sister Yang Xue, no need to feel sorry for me. In this world, to survive, nothing is easy. People always have to continue forward." The little girl speaks, sounding old-fashioned as if she has experienced many things.

Zhang Jue suddenly thought of a problem, and his brow furrowed deeply. "Kareena, I remember that according to the Foundation's records. Dr. Scranton invented the Reality Stabilization Anchor over forty years ago, and Dr. Anna died over twenty years ago. So if you really are their daughter, then may I ask how old you really are now?"
