Chapter 75: I'm a Fan of Yours

Site-17 in the SCP Foundation is quite well-known. The scale is huge, second only to Site-19 (Foundation Headquarters), where many things have happened, such as the most famous [DATA EXPUNGED].

For the time being, their details here are minimal, just to show that this site is not an ordinary Foundation site. The Containment room within the site is also out of the ordinary, and many people who work on this site are normal people.

As we all know, Site-17 is mostly filled with humanoid creatures with high intelligence, so their interaction with the experiment requires extra attention. After numerous incidents, some of the people in Site-17 had died, disappeared, and became mental.

The Foundation put a lot of attention to this, and in the process of recovery, many people were deployed from the headquarters and sent directly to Site-17.

The one who appeared behind Zhang Jue is one of them - the current Site-17 Head Supervisor, Clement. In Site-17, his status is superb, equal to Deputy Site Director Harvey and second only to the Site Director. To put it mildly, his duties are similar to Zhang Jue, which is to assess the risks of certain experiments and give appropriate advice or opinions.

He is the gatekeeper for all experiments within Site-17 and has a veto right. Any experiment that he does not agree with cannot be processed. In a sense, his power is a little more than Harvey's.

Hearing his voice, Zhang Jue froze for a moment and looked back, only to see a brawny man with a beard looking at them with an unpleasant expression.

He asked Hael while whispering and asked, "Is he the Site Director?" Hael shook his head awkwardly.

Hearing that he wasn't the Site Director, Zhang Jue's back immediately straightened up, "If he's not the Site Director, then who the hell is this arrogant meathead?!"

Hael hurriedly whispered in Zhang Jue's ear about that person's identity. Zhang Jue nodded and let out a long "Ohh." It turned out to be a direct subordinate of the headquarters big shots. No wonder he was so arrogant, and I wonder which one was his superior.

Seeing Zhang Jue and Hael both whispering and ignoring him, Clement grunted and repeated, "No need to bother the Site Director with your experiments. I'm afraid I have to disagree."

In Site-17, matters related to experiments must be approved by Clement, and if there are any objections, they need to be reported to the Site Director and sent to the headquarters through the Site Director for an evaluation.

Clement was very dissatisfied with their attitude. In the last month, the state of SCP-053 has been very unstable. Harvey recruits a group from the other site to "help" with her condition, which turns out to be counterproductive.

If he had been vigilant about it, he wouldn't have endured what happened. Zhang Jue was new to the site, and only then did he realize that there was that kind of rules in Site-17. Since that was the case, he couldn't help it.

Shirley had already woken up, and she was no longer that energetic. Besides, the matter of asking Cain to help him look at Shirley was itself risky, and indeed it needs to be evaluated. In this regard, Zhang Jue was also more careful, and he was equally very wary of these things where the consequences couldn't be determined.

"Got it, big guy." Zhang Jue shrugged, "I will apply them myself to the O5 Council directly."

Zhang Jue's reflexive words sounded different from Clement's, "Apply directly to the O5 Council? Who do you think you are?"

There were more people invited to Site-17 recently, and Clement didn't know Zhang Jue; his tone was unkind, and a fight was about to happen.

Seeing that things were bad, Hael hastened to explain, "Supervisor Clement, let me introduce him to you. This is the Foundation Special Advisor hired six months ago, Zhang Jue. He's currently working at Site-14. I was ordered by Deputy Site Director Harvey to ask him to come and be of his assistance."

"What? This is Zhang Jue?" Clement froze, his voice rising abruptly.

He was very stocky and bulkier than Zhang Jue for a white man. At this moment, he was approaching him with a very oppressive feeling, as if Zhang Jue had done something unpleasant to him. Hael immediately stopped the stand-off between them.

"Supervisor Clement, what are you doing? Please calm down."

However, what happened next was a scene that even Zhang Jue hadn't expected. Like a chicken being chased away, Clement pushed Hael aside with a greedy gleam in his eyes. As if seeing a man who had been starving for days and saw a sizzling roast chicken.

He grabbed Zhang Jue's shoulders with both hands and lifted him like a baby, his face full of excitement, "You're Advisor Zhang? Is it really you? I've finally seen you with my own eyes, hahahahaha!"

Like a small baby, Zhang Jue was immobilized by Clement's hands. His body is hanging in the air, and how could he not have imagined that this supervisor, who looked like a stranger and had a big beard, would be his fan.

What a nuisance. Although he did not take the idol route, it's kind of frustrating. Why can't it be a beautiful woman?

Zhang Jue had an unbearable face. Clement was very excited. That look is no different from a daughter who succeeded in becoming a star.

"Advisor Zhang, I've read all the experimental reports you've reported to headquarters and have done very detailed research about it. The first thing I needed to know was, how do you know that SCP-682 is not afraid of SCP-409 (Contagious Crystal) but afraid of SCP-053? And also, how do you know that lavender can calm SCP-049 (Plague Doctor)? There is so much I wanted to know."

Hael was frozen on the sidelines. He had never imagined that things would end this way. As for Zhang Jue, he's confused about whether he has to say it or forget it. This kind of information is something that he shouldn't share around freely. Hael will turn his head to the side, pretending not to see or hear about it.

Zhang Jue was a little breathless, coughed twice, helplessly said, "Man, can you put me down. The breakfast is going to be shaken out by you."

"Ah, sorry." Clement hurriedly put Zhang Jue on the ground. He didn't know where to put his hand on. He remembered what Zhang Jue was about to do just now and hurriedly asked, "Advisor Zhang, why do you think we should let SCP-073 approach SCP-053? Is there any new discovery? That Cain can suppress that little girl's abilities?"

According to SCP-343, Cain could only help him understand Shirley's condition, and it was not yet known whether it could alleviate Shirley's symptoms.

Zhang Jue shook his head gently, "I'm not particularly sure, this experiment does have risks, and your concern is justified. Before conducting the experiment, we must report to headquarters and ask the MTF team to stand by outside."

To Clement, Zhang Jue's words were like God's will, and he nodded his head in a hurry. Putting aside the conflict regarding the disagreement before.

"Advisor Zhang, then what are we waiting for? Let's send a letter to headquarters quickly. I'm not going to lie. I'm looking forward to this experiment."
