I heard that I’m super fierce - Chapter 35

Translator: NovelMultiverse | Editor: NovelMultiverse

Plague Doctor.

Its actual number was SCP-049.

It came from the SCP Foundation like SCP-096, and it was equally difficult to contain.

—Although he has considerable intelligence and behaves mildly and docilely, the idea of ​​occasionally performing surgical operations to get rid of the plague made him very dangerous.

Those who were killed were all normal people, but the Plague Doctor claimed to have found a “great plague” in them. He was very satisfied with the result of killing them with the touch of his hands and reforming them, thinking that they had defeated the “plague.”

The condition for the Plague Doctor to honestly stay in the foundation was the foundation’s promise to continue to provide him with dead animal carcasses for his experiments. But during this period, he also attacked a doctor who was sent to communicate with him just because he thought he was sick.

God knows what his standard of judgment is.

Now, the square-faced man had obviously become a victim at his hands. Lin You wasn’t sure how many of the five remaining people had been infected with the plague in the eyes of the Plague Doctor—perhaps all of them were. In short, you must avoid the Plague Doctor’s touch as much as possible and the bodies of the teammates who have been transformed by him.

“Are they gone?” Li Jing whispered behind her.

The tall, pale creature squatted on the side with her. Out of some instinct to survive, Li Jing was still a little nervous and didn’t want to be so close to it all the time.

Lin You answered absently. She was still thinking about how to deal with the Plague Doctor.

At the present, the most convenient way was to use 096 to take care of it, but who knows whether his ability to kill by touch will also work on it. In addition, in case the other party rises up and transforms 096…the picture was too beautiful to look at.

Taking a step back, it was not impossible to eliminate the “servants” to weaken the power of the Plague Doctor. However, unlike the fake Ren Mingde back then, the corpse that had been operated on by the epidemic doctor did not have a mind; it was just a zombie with increased adrenaline. She really couldn’t guarantee that the other party would see 096’s face.

They had to think of other ways.

After hearing her answer, Li Jing wanted to go out. Lin You heard some noise and hurriedly pushed her back.

“Wait.” She lowered her voice.

It was fortunate that they did not go out.

It was their old acquaintance who appeared at the opposite intersection.

The Fashion Model walked barefoot on the broken floor. The floor tiles were smashed with cracks and rubble, but she walked steadily. Her face was uninterested as if she had been around a few times searching prey before finding something suitable. She bared her teeth viciously, and the blood on her face and body had already dried up.

She didn’t look here; instead, she went in the other direction.

“…Are some of her teeth missing?” Li Jing muttered.

Lin You: “…”

She was observing very carefully.

“Ah, I’ll use marble,” she said casually, without admiring Li Jing’s shocked expression. She got up and walked around and went into the family supermarket again. “Since they are both here, I’ll go in to lie low.”

Li Jing was not so adaptable. She walked around the pool of blood delicately before stepping into the door.

“What?”

As soon as she looked up, she saw an unexpected figure in the corner, “Why are you—”

Lin You was leaning on the doorknob and turned her head when she heard this.

Xu Yan also seemed a little surprised at their sudden arrival.

“Congratulations on escaping.” The first half of the sentence was addressed to Li Jing, who coughed in a weird way, “What did you find?”

“There is a piece of cardboard.”

Lin You didn’t hide it, “Let’s go to the tenth gate to see—how about you?”

“I can’t compare to you,” Xu Yan said casually, “I just remembered that Ren Mingde was in charge of this place. Maybe I would miss something and come back halfway, but I didn’t expect to find it.”

He reached out to the newspaper rack.

Compared with the magazine column next to it, the newspaper rack was much barer, and Xu Yan took the top copy.

They were shown the social news on the front page.

The youngest daughter of a certain family had been missing for several days and was found to be brutally killed. The suspect accused of being the murderer also hanged himself shortly after.

The victim’s name and even the home address were hidden. The only thing they knew was that she was in the fourth grade at an elementary school. Also printed in the newspaper was a photo mosaic of the suspect’s eyes.[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]

—Fourth grade, less than ten years old, in line with the voice on the radio.

Lin You: “Do you think…”

“Yes.”

Xu Yan happily responded.

“Don’t the cross-sections of the arms and torso we found look like they had been sawed?”

Murder, saw, these two words are linked together, it was easy to recall—

Li Jing: “…dismemberment?”

“She died from dismemberment,” Lin You exhaled, “So let’s find and piece together her body?”

Most likely the little girl on the radio was the victim of this murder, but her relationship with the Red Person was still unclear.

They were still standing beside the newspaper rack, and the loudspeakers sounded again.

“Please be careful—“

“Eight Feet Tall has entered the station.”

“Where…” Li Jing said sluggishly, “It’s not quite right…”

Lin You thought that nothing was right.

This time it was not about a certain station, but about “entering.” It meant that there were other entrances besides the platforms below. This was the first floor, so that is to say—

“Po.”

“Po…po.”

While hearing such a weird sound like squeezing something out of the throat, there was no need for anyone to direct them. The three of them all found shelter and hid, waiting for the sound to pass.

SCP-096 followed silently again.

The woman walking by the window was more than two meters tall.

She was wearing a long white dress and a cap of the same color. While walking slowly forward, the mechanical “popopopo” sound was constantly squeezed out of her throat.

Eight Feet Tall was named after her height.

It is said to be an evil being sealed on one side, searching for prey every time. She will attack the prey she is staring at within a few days, ignoring all spells. No spell can cause her harm.

Lin You noticed that she held the slightly crooked hat.

“Look, there’s another ruthless character.” Xu Yan raised his eyebrows when Eight Feet Tall walked away.

“The ruthless character, the ruthless character—“

Lin You put on a fake smile, “Time is so tight, we don’t necessarily have to play with them.”

She had some ideas.

*

Lin You leaned against the wall and looked at Li Jing with her eyes closed.

She was twisting a thin thread with her fingertips, and she looked a little disturbed.

After hearing her plan and knowing that it lacked the most important part—how to avoid the frontal conflict with Eight Feet Tall and not attract her attention—Li Jing hesitated for a long time before she finally said she could try it.

She took out a small sewing kit from her arms which contained several sewing needles and a piece of rolled-up thread.

The thin wire was only half a millimeter in diameter, but it looked very strong. After seeing Li Jing pick up a needle and easily bend the needle into a hook shape, Lin You also guessed that it was related to her occupation.

“This is one of the skills… as long as it doesn’t leave your hands,” Li Jing explained briefly for Lin You who saved her twice before, “I can manipulate them to a certain extent, but it’s only so long.”

She picked up a piece of broken stone from the ground and tied it to the thin wire tied to the hook. She walked around twice and threw it into the vent in the wall. Li Jing let it out bit by bit until it reached the nearest exit.

The covers on both sides had been removed earlier because of searching for the body, which will make their plan a lot smoother now.

Then they just had to wait for Eight Feet Tall to pass by, which was only a matter of time.

And the corridor was a square-shaped structure, and she walked on the short side—

Hearing the sound of “Popopo” approaching, Li Jing’s forehead sweated, and she didn’t dare to relax anymore.

She lowered the thin thread little by little, and her palms tightened when the needle suddenly caught something.

“Got it!”

Li Jing said excitedly, pulling back the thin line with force.

At the same time, roars came from the wall.

This roar made Li Jing’s whole body tremble, but it did not prevent the cap that had been hooked from falling from the ventilation duct—the little girl’s body could fit here, and a cap naturally had more than enough space.

Eight Feet Tall may have never dreamed of it. Walking on the road, a hook emerged from the ventilation duct above her head and removed her foreign hat.

Regardless of whether Lin You saw that the action of holding her hat was quite satisfactory, she thought, even if she didn’t like this hat, it was a provocation indeed!

Li Jing just removed the foreign hat from the tip of the hook.

“Li Jing, give me the hat!”

The glass shattered in an uproar not far away, and they could hear the anger of Eight Feet Tall. Lin You pulled the hat from the opponent’s hand and ran away.

Of course, she did it to cause trouble.

She remembered the direction where the “servant” made by the Plague Doctor went, and if SCP-096 couldn’t solve it, they would let Eight Feet Tall go. Lin You rushed to the corner—

The next second, she stopped when a shadow fell above her head.

Lin You’s gaze stayed on the bare feet in front of her, and then she slowly raised her head. The Fashion Model who was not as tall as Eight Feet Tall was staring at her deeply.

Several rows of her fine fangs flashed with cold light, and only a few of them were missing as if they had been bitten off by a hard object.

The blood had stopped, but the bloodstains on the corner of her mouth probably included her own.

New hatred added to old regret, and at this moment, the Fashion Model that finally blocked her had a look of pleasure in her eyes of finally getting revenge.

“Where do you want to go?” Yuan sneered.

She wasn’t in a rush at the moment, and she licked her lips with her rough tongue, seeming to think about how to gnaw her away inch by inch.

“Po, popo…“

The sound of Eight Feet Tall chasing after her was getting closer and closer. Lin You looked around, and regrettably found that there was a wolf in front and a tiger behind, so she couldn’t tackle one.

She thrust her hat straight into the arms of the Fashion Model.

“Take it.”

She said sincerely: “No need to thank me.”[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]
