I heard that I’m super fierce - Chapter 38

“Get out—!”

The shadow lurking in the darkness of the stairwell shouted at the back of her head and screamed hysterically: “I said, get it out!!!”

Lin You: “…”

How deep was this psychological shadow?

Looking at SCP-096, which had just taken a step forward, the gray-brown paper bag crinkled as it turned its head. It didn’t move the paper bag by itself, and the bag was naturally not going to fall off, but it obviously felt like it might.

Lin You didn’t know what the relationship between the clone and the main body was after it turned into “Ren Mingde,” but looking at the small movements of 096, the monster in the shadow was probably nervous for a reason.

Maybe in a few minutes, SCP-096 will be able to detect that something is wrong and instead will attack the guy who has seen its face in some sense.

“Quickly,” the voice yelled in fear, “Quickly take it away—”

“Hey!”

Compared to the voice, Lin You seemed more calm and relaxed.

“Didn’t you say it’s impossible to back out of it?”

………………It doesn’t care!!!

It was almost as if it could hear the true meaning of its words. Lin You smiled and asked it.

“Okay, it’s okay to ask me to take him away.” She said, “Or it’s that sentence, answer my question first.”

A long silence.

In the darkness, a flat face slowly appeared.

The monster in the stairwell had no pupils, and its skin was glowing with an inorganic silver-gray. The bridge of its nose protruded out a little bit, but the nostrils were missing. Similarly, the place where the mouth should be was blank.

Its face was floating in the air, without any physical support, and there were no vocal cords or any vocal organs visible, but the shrill voice rang again.

This voice was between a child’s and a woman’s, and it sounded calmer than before.

“…You can ask,” it said, “and as long as you take it away, I’ll answer.”

“Are things going well… over there?” After placing the right leg in the coffin and stepping up the stairs, Li Jing still hesitated and looked back.

It had been a while since the elevator in the middle of the hall went down, and there was no sound of it returning—of course, there was nothing to hear from the distance between the upper and lower floors.

She herself was rescued twice, but she believed their strength lied in her, and no one could guarantee that nothing would happen.

“Don’t worry.”

Wang Yiming’s heart is very broad, “If it’s no good, then that guy won’t follow us?”

Li Jing: “…”

She also knew from their words that the weird humanoid creature that couldn’t move away from them was not under the control of the leader as she thought. If the car accidentally overturned, it would be a rear-end collision!

She didn’t want to say anything unlucky, so she had to silently keep her thoughts to herself.

As they spoke, they had returned from the underground to the first floor, and Wang Yiming spoke again.

“Anyway,” he said, “Let’s finish our task here first—we can see what else on this floor has yet to been found. The remaining three are not good, nothing’s here.”

Li Jing answered vaguely.

“—Now that you mention it,”

She suddenly spoke.

“We have all demonstrated our abilities more or less,” she glanced pointedly at someone, “Should some people show some sincerity?”

“Okay, okay.” Wang Yiming hurriedly resolved the dispute, “Hasn’t everyone been working hard on finding that leg? Don’t worry about it now.”

Xu Yan, who was under the gaze of the two, was still calm.

“It’s not sincere or insincere. It’s better to say, I have already used it on the platform.” He said.

Li Jing: “…Huh?”

She thought about it and didn’t remember what skills she had seen him use. Wang Yiming next to her was also confused, and only let him speak plainly.

Seeing them at a loss, Xu Yan smiled and was about to speak again—

“Bo…bo.”

This slight movement made him swallow his words straight away.

The sound seemed to be close, and at the next moment, all three of them realized how close the other was to them.

Even Wang Yiming, who had never faced it directly, couldn’t help being shocked for a while.

The snow-white dress was torn to pieces. Only half of the cap was left on his head. The neck and arms were covered in bloodstains from claws and bloody holes from sharp teeth.

However, despite this, she was standing here, which meant that she was the winner of that battle.

“Bo.”

Eight Feet Tall tilted her neck abnormally at ninety degrees, staring straight at them with her dull and hollow pupils.

She raised the corners of her mouth.[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]

“Yes,” the monster in the stairwell gave a clear explanation, “I knew what you were going to do from the beginning.”

“So I was there—oh, he thought he would just bend over and go around the seal, but he didn’t expect it would be over as long as he stepped on the steps. So I replaced him naturally, and…”

It snorted heavily.

Lin You only thought she hadn’t heard.

“Who made you do this?” she asked.

The stairwell monster was quiet.

She wanted to get it and it would not answer easily, because it involved the people behind it and it had to weigh whether it was worth it.

To get this answer, she had to add in more chips.

As a result, Lin You happily climbed another step, and the SCP-096 behind her was unaware, so it stumbled.

“………………I’ll speak!!”

The strange face screamed so loudly that it broke again. It carefully looked at 096’s reaction, and only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that the other party had no special reaction.

Lin You: “Is it the Red Person?”

“No, it’s not her, or it’s not only her,” the strange face said cautiously. “There is also a little girl who has made an appointment with this station to play games here.”

“I…I’m just one of the helpers,” it admitted.

The little girl it was speaking of, Lin You thought, might be the one on the radio.

“I want to know where that little girl is.”

“Isn’t that easy to find?” it asked strangely, “You can hear the broadcast, you just need to find the broadcast station, which is upstairs—”

It shut its mouth suddenly.

A strong instinct struck Lin You.

The weird coercion behind her suddenly reminded her of the shock when she faced the Red Person. Realizing who was not far behind, Lin You immediately backed up two steps, and rushed to the opposite straight ladder without looking back.

SCP-096 stepped into the elevator car in the next second, and Lin You didn’t care about it. Half of her body was leaning on the wall, desperately trying to press the “B1” button.

A scream came into his ears.

“That’s not what I wanted to say!” shouted the monster in the stairwell. “She was the one who forced me. She was the only one who forced me to—”

The girl covered in blood didn’t care about it, she kept making terrible laughter “hahaha.” She glared at Lin You with two staring eyes, and rushed towards her when she lifted her foot!

Lin You gritted her teeth and hit the button hard with a fist.

—The elevator moved.

The door leaf finally closed with the tip of the blood-stained finger.

Lin You couldn’t relax. The afterimages left in her mind were all the twisted smiles of the other party.

—Just now, the Red Person who had announced their temporary withdrawal from the game appeared outside the stairwell.

Its motive was clear at a glance.

Lin You leaned against the wall of the car, exhaling slowly.

The little girl didn’t want to be found, but she was forced to ask questions from the mouth of the former traitor. So the Red Person appeared and was forced to obliterate her.

The elevator doors opened.

In front of her was the familiar station hall. Lin You shook her head and strode out. Fortunately, she escaped, and now she had to figure out how to return to the others and tell them about it.

The weird face in the stairwell only said that the radio station was upstairs, and it was a bit…

Hearing a hum, Lin You stopped.

The old radio has sounded so many times, of course, she knew what this prelude buzz meant.

“Please pay attention.”

Said the little girl.

“The Red Person appeared behind Lin You, please look back and confirm.”

Lin You snorted internally.

She suppressed her urge to look back. Looking at it this way, even if the Red Person called out again, the murder will follow the previous conditions—after turning back or finishing the song.

Not to mention how the other party knew her name, the little girl wanted to lie to her to turn around and kill her instantly when satisfied.

“Please look back and confirm.” Not seeing her response, the broadcast repeated again.

That’s what a fool would do.

“Okay—” Lin You did not move for a long time, and the little girl was inevitably disappointed. “If you don’t want to confirm, just forget it, but I didn’t lie to you, the Red Person is really behind you.”

Before she finished her words, her arms slammed on Lin You’s waist.

…?!

The force of the other party made her stagger a step, and she continued to increase her strength. Lin You breathed steadily, holding back without looking back, and stepping forward step by step.

“Please…give me…red clothes…”

She felt that the person holding her waist was short, and the weight of her whole body was resting on her.

Plus this singing…

It really was the Red Person.

“Dye…the white clothes…red…”

The Red Person was so powerful that she almost hugged her into conjoined twins. Lin You knew that she couldn’t get SCP-096’s attention at this time. Holding her like this, who knew if the Red Person could still see its face, and moreover, it was very likely that she would be brought to her when attacking the Red Person.

Every time a sentence was sung, the Red Person’s arms tightened. It was possible it would cut her off at the moment when she finished singing. Lin You gritted her teeth and dragged her to the door inch by inch.

She reached out and pushed open the glass door.

In front of her was a convenience store that she had been to more than once. Lin You continued to drag it.

She walked to the nearest shelf.

“Dyed bright red bright red…”

Leaning on the shelf to take a breath, Lin You grabbed the box of packed fruits on it and tore off the plastic wrap. Other fruits rolled on the floor, and she grabbed an apple, touched her back, and stuffed it into the mouth of the Red Person.

—It blocked the lyrics of the second half of her sentence.

Red Person: “…”

She pressed her tongue hard against the apple, but it was stuffed too tightly and stuck in her teeth, so she couldn’t push it out.

Red Person: “Wuwuwu”[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]
