Is it really normal to contain these anomalies?

It would be a lie to say I wasn't nervous, even though I felt relieved when I first saw it had no wings behind it.

But he soon found that he couldn't reconcile the scene before him with the twisted and dangerous fantasies of Lobotomy Corporation in his mind...

The unknown and the known...which is more terrifying?

"Handling corpses? Surgery? What the hell is this!"

At this moment, Bai Yu only felt a strong sense of unease and disharmony bursting out from the bottom of his heart.

But no matter what... there is one thing that overlaps, just like with other Abnormalities.

This guy... is dangerous.

'Continue moving forward, or request backup?'

Even though he was still thinking, even though they had only been in this position in the corridor for less than a minute...even though Bai Yu only thought that he had not exposed the existence of himself and Komini.

But the soft humming in the air ended at this moment.

The 'Doctor' didn't turn around, but seemed to sense their presence, and soft words came out of his mouth.

"(English) Ah... another victim of the disease."

"(English) Please wait a moment... I will treat you immediately..."

The moment these sudden words ended, time seemed to stop. The two Lobotomy employees did not move at all, not even blinking.

Because they couldn't believe what they heard...

This is extremely fluent English, which is rarely seen in cities today.

However, as employees recruited by Lobotomy, Bai Yu and Komini at least have a certain amount of knowledge reserves.

"Senior, why is this Abnormality speaking English?"

Perhaps because she discovered that this abnormality could still communicate, Komini's voice became calmer and her body trembled less.

"Disease? Treatment? Sounds friendly... It's a doctor, right? Can we communicate with it?"

She spoke in a very small voice in the ear of her senior, but after several seconds, Komini did not get a response from Bai Yu.

"senior?"

Komini turned her head slightly to look at Bai Yu, but only saw cold sweat dripping from the senior's cheeks.

He found it.

Yes, at this moment, he finally found the source of the sense of disharmony.

beak...

doctor....

Communication skills...

A zombie that is dead but still able to move...

All the details that he had overlooked before were finally connected at this moment.

"No way..."

Bai Yu murmured in his heart.

"This thing definitely didn't come from Lobotomy Corporation headquarters..."

It has only one source.

That mysterious organization that once chose to remain completely silent in the CN region...

Yes.

Looking at the system prompt, Bai Yu swallowed.

It is not the epidemic doctor in Bai Yu's impression, but it is also the "epidemic doctor" in his impression.

What is the number G-01-12?

From the beginning, his thinking was wrong.

From beginning to end, this guy only had one number!

SCP-049.

-----------------

When Bai Yu understood all this, he put a hand on Komini's shoulder, signaling her not to act rashly.

Putting his determination to die back into the sheath, Bai Yu took a deep breath.

"Doctor, my name is Dr. Bai Yu. May I come in?"

Despite the years-long blockade, Bai Yu now doesn't remember much about the foundation's information.

But from the few fragments of memory he had, he still remembered that this 'doctor' was an abnormal individual who could communicate well.

"Ok?"

Hearing Bai Yu's voice, 049's hand that was performing the operation also paused, and it seemed very surprised.

"Okay... okay... what's going on? Another colleague? I didn't realize there was someone like me right away..."

Now, before the words in the air faded away, the 'doctor' in front of him gently placed the scalpel in his hand into the black square bag beside him.

The operation was interrupted.

049 slowly stood up, picked up the black square bag, and the abnormal creature walked towards him and others step by step.

It was not until he stood in front of her that Komini noticed that the abnormality in front of her was very tall. The 1.9m tall man was almost a head taller than her predecessor.

Just like Komini who kept hiding behind Bai Yu and stealing glances at him out of the corner of her eyes.

Now, 049 was also staring at Bai Yu and Komini with the pupils under the huge bird-beak mask.

Perhaps it was because the blood-stained white coat Bai Yu was wearing dispelled some of its suspicion and dissatisfaction, and it was this abnormality that spoke first in the conversation.

"So, doctor, how should we begin? Introduce ourselves?"

049's tone wasn't good either. He fiddled with the black pointed stick in his left hand in annoyance...

"My name is Bai Yu..."

Bai Yu was about to say what it said, but was interrupted by the abnormal entity in front of him.

"Well, no need for pleasantries. I consider myself to be quite good-tempered... But now, doctor, explain my quarters to me."

"dormitory?"

This sudden change of topic left Bai Yu confused.

"Where is the dormitory? Is this some kind of brain teaser?!"

Just when Bai Yu didn't know how to answer, 049 spoke again.

"Yes, the dormitory."

It didn't seem to hear Bai Yu's question, but its tone became increasingly unfriendly.

"I thought I was being kidnapped by some ordinary street thug!"

"Are you dissatisfied with your dormitory?" Bai Yu was still puzzled.

"Everyone!" The second after Bai Yu finished speaking, 049 roared almost uncontrollably, "There's a plague everywhere... right here! I can't see any professionalism in you!"

Chapter 18 Plague!

"plague!"

"plague!!"

"plague!!!"

"Don't you understand yet?!!"

Bai Yu and Komini witnessed with their own eyes how 049 excitedly thrust the black stick in his hand into the corridor wall made of composite metal specially used by the Lobotomy Corporation to prevent the escape of the abnormalities.

"You're allowing the plague to spread here!"

"You surrendered! And your surrender will only lead to more people surrendering!!"

What happened next was several minutes of venting, but fortunately, even in this situation, 049 still suppressed his desire to attack.

This may be related to the fact that in 049's subconscious mind, it is a 'doctor' rather than a 'murderer'.

However, even though it desperately wanted to prove itself as a "qualified" doctor, no one knew what the plague 049 was talking about was.

In Bai Yu's opinion, in a sense, 049 and Carmen have similar ideas. They both believe that humans have contracted an indescribable disease, and this disease will lead to the death of all humans...

However, compared to Carmen, 049's method is more "brutal". It will first kill the patient physically and then "resurrect" him through surgery.

After a few minutes, 049's emotions finally stabilized. It walked back to Bai Yu and Komini, who had taken the opportunity to get away from it, and the bird-beak mask was facing Bai Yu again.

"Phew... Sorry, doctor, I lost my composure."

"Calm down?"

Bai Yu silently loosened his hand in his white coat, which was holding the determination to die.

"Yes, doctor, I'm sorry, I did generalize."

A hint of apology came from beneath 049's huge bird-beak mask.

"I forgot that you are a qualified doctor. At least for now, I don't see any trace of the plague on you. This is enough to prove that you have done a very good job of protection..."

?

Bai Yu was a little surprised. In 049's mouth, he was not infected with the "plague" it mentioned?

Without giving Bai Yu time to think, 049 continued, "But the one behind you, doctor, is very ill."

"We must perform swift and effective surgery on her immediately!"

Using his height, 049 easily passed Bai Yu with his head and stood in front of Komini. The blood of his colleagues was clearly visible on the sharp bird-beak mask.

"Ah...ah ah..."

Fear almost engulfed Komini, and she raised her hand to hold the pistol while she spoke incoherently.

But this would be useless. She knew very well that even the M4s in the hands of the security guards could not stop the monster's brutal behavior, so how could she do it?

"Dad...Mom, my daughter might really become a lump today..."

"Rest assured, for millennia, people have been tormented by the 'plague'... until a perfect cure for it was developed."

"Kid, you're in luck. I'm very close to a cure. This will be the cure to end all cures!"

049 The hand wearing a black glove was about to gently touch her face...

"Please stop, 049, she is my patient..."

Bai Yu's voice came from in front of Komini.

"We are all professionals fighting the 'plague,' but professionals generally don't let others interfere with their work, right?"

049 stopped moving.
