The Endless Shuttle

To a friend who is willing to do anything to help him, the black-haired youth is always very kind.

"It's not okay to start the incident with me, but let you suffer bad luck at the end. Things have evolved to that point, and I don't mind solving it with a war—a war with the SCP Foundation."

"Haha, even a polite attitude can't hide the violence deep in your heart... Great Mystic..."

Wingate smiled heartily.

But perhaps because of the fear of the war between inhumans and humans, the old man did not continue the discussion on this topic, but changed the subject and talked about other things.

"How's the situation with SCP-173 over there?"

"It's nothing, to be honest, except that the desire to communicate has become stronger in the past few days, I haven't done any other escape behaviors. I think it's time to send him to a normal containment facility."

For four days, the tea-haired girl born from the statue was very peaceful, not even getting close to the edge of the cage, and lived a stable life with the shackles around her neck.

One thing is worth noting.

That is, SCP-173's behavior and way of speaking are getting closer and closer to humans, a bit like an evolution to be able to communicate with the only Rope I can see.

The transformation from a murderous monster to a gentle monster.

"Ordinary containment facility..." Wingate showed a smile that was uglier than crying.

"A monster that can jump through space and run into the gap between dreams and reality, what do we use to contain it? Those "lady" are very peaceful now, but I have a hunch that as long as you leave the SCP Foundation, SCP-173 will definitely manifest its original nature..."

"The cage is very reliable."

"That's what a certain regional director said when he contained SCP-682. Guess what happened to him later? After breaking free from containment, 682 was torn into pieces that couldn't be put together..."

"You don't even believe in my power?"

"No, what I don't believe, is ourselves..."

Luo Pei clicked his tongue, and lightly tapped the clean surface of the office desk with his index finger.

"When Kevin handles the affairs of the Tokyo Research Institute, I will definitely leave. It is impossible to stay on this island for a lifetime. Don't be like an unweaned baby, learn to be independent."

"Yeah, independent, we've always been so independent that the number of deaths per year is high."

Wingate was silent for a while, then his eyes lit up, and he said excitedly.

"I thought of a way! Now that we have decided to conceal the matter of SCP-294 and SCP-914, it seems that there is no problem adding another SCP-173? You just need to take that "Miss" away and stay by your side Wouldn't everything be safe? "

One sheep is also chased, and two sheep are also chased. As the saying goes, if there are too many lice, it doesn't itch. Wingate, who had just finished the job of cheating the SCP Foundation, immediately broke through his lower limit and made an unscrupulous proposal.

This kind of person turned out to be a senior member of the SCP Foundation...

Rope couldn't help but observe a second of silence for the group of O5 Council members.

However, this is indeed a good way. It just so happens that he is engaged in monster rule in Japan. The tameability and strength currently displayed by SCP-173, if used well, will become a very good subordinate.

Of course, Luo Pei will never admit that he is obsessed with the problem of appearance.

"If you're not afraid, of course I'm fine."

Rope said, standing up from the chair.

"Stay one more day, and I will leave the day after tomorrow at the latest. At that time, I will take Hongliqi away. As long as you send 294 and 914, I will start working immediately. You can wait for my high news in peace."

"One more request, Mr. Rope."

"explain."

"After everything is successful, I hope you will let me rest in peace. You said that I would be killed by that priest of death, so you will definitely be able to kill me when the time comes?"

Wingate laughed.

"After living for so long, it's time for me to see my wife and son after letting go of my responsibilities and pain."

"..."

Rope stopped for a moment.

Then, he said indifferently.

"My ears are not very good recently. I couldn't hear what you said just now. I'm sorry."

After speaking, the black-haired young man left without looking back.

Only Wingate was left in the office, and it took a long time for the old man to sigh helplessly.

Chapter 53 There is a wife at home and an assistant outside

As Luo Pei said, it is impossible for him to stay in the Asian branch of the SCP Foundation for the rest of his life. After finishing his work, he will naturally have to go back to Tokyo when he is satisfied.

The research institute has been properly arranged, and Makise Kurisu's transfer, which is more symbolic than actual, has been officially issued, and the rest is naturally the hard work of the two of them.

——Rope is for the crown of "half god", and Makise Kurisu is for the time machine.

"Tokyo... haven't been back for a long time."

The sea breeze was blowing, standing on the SCP Foundation, or Wingate's private luxury yacht, the girl held her brown-red hair messed up by the wind with one hand, and looked at the coastline that was getting closer and closer in the distance.

Japan, Tokyo.

This is the hometown where she was born. Before going to the United States, Makise Kurari lived here and spent a fairly happy childhood.

As a child prodigy, he was praised by everyone, his mother's gentleness, and his loving and great father... Until the end, the family gradually became fragmented because of the time machine.

Recalling the unhappy memories, the girl's face was a little depressed.

"Near hometown feeling timid" refers to her current state of mind.

"The weather hasn't reached spring yet, and if the sea breeze blows too much, you'll catch a cold, Hong Liqi."

"Mr. Rope..."

Turning around, a handsome young man with black hair and blue eyes came out from the cabin.

Even with Makise Kurisu's critical eyes, this is a perfect person.

Handsome, wealthy, in a high position, and more importantly, a sense of mystery brought about by his inhuman ambiguous identity. Ordinary girls will be captured immediately even if they get along with each other for a little bit, right?

However, it would be great if I wasn't so obsessed with the time machine... Some religious fanatic who believes in the destruction of the world...

Makise Kurari felt sorry in her heart.

But these are not things she needs to worry about. Makise Kurisu feels that no matter what the starting point of the black-haired young man is, she promises to do her best, at least worthy of this high salary. Besides, she has no right to refuse high-level officials when she is on the pirate ship of the SCP Foundation.
