Chapter 235: Leaving Site-15

Hansen retreated a step as a result of Zhang Jue's stern gaze on him. "Explain to me what it means to bear full responsibility for it?" he muttered.

The last time Zhang Jue rode SCP-682 to cause a commotion at the headquarters, Hansen, who was a direct agent of the headquarters, was already aware of Zhang Jue's infamy. This individual even had the temerity to confront the O5.

It was also said that he had taken a lot of the SCP from the headquarters. Even though Zhang Jue wasn't a vicious and fearsome individual, those who simply knew him by his name might not have thought much worse of him.

Hansen said, "According to the direction from above, the Church of the Broken God cannot be let to poison the globe, but the Foundation will unquestionably provide all of its support as long as you, Advisor Zhang, can hinder their scheme."

"So, all employees are now under my command?"

"That's not actually it, the headquarters can now only mobilize a very small number of staff due to previous events that have transpired."

He was filled with dread, and Zhang Jue questioned, "How limited?"

With his afterglow, Hansen cast a glance at his apprentice and appeared a bit uncomfortable.

"Don't tell me that it's just the two of you!" Zhang Jue scowled.

"Not at all." said Hansen helplessly, "There are two MTF squads"Pufferfish" and "Tiger Shark"that are available for you to deploy, but you need the headquarters' consent to relocate them."

Zhang Jue laughed aloud. "Having said that, you two are still the only individuals I can order directly, right?"

"Uh..." Hansen falsely coughed a couple times, "Yes."

Zhang Jue would have wanted to slap this agent named Hansen to death if he hadn't merely been a messenger. He was supposed to lead these two troops in resolving the war that the Broken God Cult had proclaimed against the Foundation. Did they thought he was a Superman?

However, he was only one person, and even if he were to learn the truth about what was happening outside, he wouldn't be able to take significant action any time soon. After all, you should take each step of the journey and each bite of food as it comes.

...

In a relatively short period of time, Zhang Jue assisted Site-188 and Site-15 in locating the traitor and restoring the truth regarding the theft of the SCP project. This time, the mission was successful. He had initially considered returning to Site-14 to relax for a few days, but Hansen's entrance entirely ended his plans for this.

However, the path of history indicates that the supposedly "end of the world" occurs three years later. But it's obvious that things are starting to get tense in the world. Zhang Jue was unable to find a secure location, even if he wanted to be lazy. He could only assist the Foundation in taking action as a last resort.

The following day, Site Director Walnut and Supervisor Owens left Site-15 with Zhang Jue and Simmons. Site Manager Walnut shook Zhang Jue's hand and thanked him sincerely for his assistance before departing. However, Zhang Jue would almost be able to ignore this type of appreciation if there was nothing noteworthy.

For Simmons, the journey to Site-15 was similarly rewarding. He not only got to know SCP-079, but he also deeply impressed both Owens and Site Director Walnut. He will likely be able to join Site-15 soon, in my opinion.

His position was a little problematic after Yang Xue left and promoted as the Head of Experiment for Site-14, therefore it would be beneficial to see if he could visit Site-15 and carry out his preferred task. But that was only a side note; Simmons still needs to visit Site-14 in order to catch the dawn.

The two separate at the crossroads as a new task approaches.

Zhang Jue was taunted by Simmons, who was carrying his own computer bag "Advisor Zhang, you are now the Site-14's Deputy Site Director. You shouldn't worry about a fire in your backyard if you're always running outside."

Simmons was initially a straight man, but after spending a lot of time with Zhang Jue, he began to crack lighthearted jokes.

"I can't help it, I'm o handsome, and a wonderful worker." Zhang Jue chuckled.

Simmons dropped his head and spoke to Zhang Jue after making sure no one could catch their talk.

"Although it seems a little out of place, Advisor Zhang I had to let you know after giving it some thought. I'll discuss what I discovered in Site-14 during your earlier absence with you when you return from your assignment."
