I’m In Charge of SCP

Zhang Jue carefully picked up the flash drive and carefully observed its appearance. It was about the same size as an ordinary USB flash drive, and the color was black.

On one side, it was written something: Factory Porn.

Zhang Jue opened the laptop he had borrowed from Du Jingtian and inserted the USB drive into the USB port. The laptop quickly recognized the presence of the USB drive and did a round of automatic scanning, finding no viruses of any kind. Zhang Jue saw that the file inside the USB drive was only 1KB in size on the laptop.

Shit!

He'd expected to see a few gigabytes of content.

Zhang Jue entered the flash drive's folder. Found only a program named "Thefactory.exe 2.0" inside. Zhang Jue disconnected the computer network and double-click just to be sure. A dialog box popped up with the logo "The Factory" written on it.

Then the letters disappeared, and a string of text appeared: What do you want to see?

Seeing this, Zhang Jue was almost sure what this thing was, but he continued to test it. He randomly typed in a name: Tebukao Videos.

Immediately afterward, a set of indescribable pictures popped up. Zhang Jue randomly clicked on a picture, and a video was opened, which contained a video with a simple plot starring Tebukao. Zhang Jue let out a dry heave and immediately turned the video off.

He hit his hand hard because he saw someone and couldn't believe it himself. The one and the only person he wouldn't have mistaken. It was only at this point that Zhang Jue could finally determine what this flash drive really was.

SCP-1004 – Factory Porn.

...

SCP-1004 is a computer program currently available on CD (SCP-1004-2) and 3.5" floppy disk (SCP-1004-1), both with the label "Factory Porn". It contains a 1KB executable named 'Thefactory.exe', which can be used on all platforms.

A search box will appear when the program is run, and the user can enter some vague or precise keywords at will. The program will then open a set of indescribable images, each of which is linked to a video.

Although none of these movies may have ever been made, it is important to note that viewing the videos in SCP-1004 can have a long-term impact. The more videos viewed, the stronger the sexual impulse who watched them, and the more difficult it is to achieve sexual gratification.

When he heard that indecent pictures of celebrity stars here in this country were leaked, Zhang Jue guessed that SCP-1004 was its cause. But according to the information he remembered, SCP-1004 could not be recorded in any form or by any means and only existed in two forms, a CD and a floppy disk.

Apparently, the USB flash drive in Zhang Jue's hand was a new version of SCP-1004. Not only does it come in the form of a USB flash drive, but the video could also be recorded.

These two updates have transformed the SCP-1004 from a geeky item into a socially disruptive chaotic weapon. It is possible to fake any video of a person and spread it on the internet with this thing. Ordinary people might just be clubbed to death, while if it's really those at the top, they will lose their reputation.

So, this is what the Wright family is looking for. Their goal is not only to win the governor's election. With this kind of thing on their hands, any political enemies of theirs would be in a very unlucky situation, whether they're a domestic or foreign political party.

The impact of it wouldn't be just small. It can cause a worldwide commotion if used correctly by someone with a sinister plan.

He did not expect to find that this was the reason why Smith was being hunted right now. The good thing is now it's in his hand now. Zhang Jue simply wanted to laugh out loud three times.

The task had already been assigned to Smith, he was an Advisor of the Foundation, and he had a lot of time on his hands. So, it wouldn't harm to be lazy once in a while.

Now the question is, whose name should he enter next?

[DATA EXPUNGED]

It was 8 PM. Zhang Jue came to the restaurant for dinner. Stevenson happened to return from outside and handed him a package.

"Advisor Zhang, Smith's application to join the Foundation has been approved. This is the information related to his identity, and according to Mr. Du, the headquarters intends to place him by your side as your assistant temporarily."

"Good." Zhang Jue took the package, didn't even look at it, and put it aside directly.

Stevenson continued, "Advisor Zhang, thanks to you, we could find Smith in just a few days and convinced him to join the Foundation, although I still couldn't help much…."

"Oh, it's okay."

Zhang Jue still simply returned his sentence. Stevenson looked at Zhang Jue. Although Zhang Jue's position is much higher than theirs, he was always easy-going. Except something weird just happened, and it was clear from its looks.

I don't know if I don't see it, but I'm shocked by it.

He saw the always very energetic Advisor Zhang looking not quite right as if he was a bit depressed at that moment.

"Advisor Zhang, what's wrong with you?" Stevenson said with concern, "Are you sick? Let me take you to a doctor."

"No need." Zhang Jue waved his hand, "I'll be fine after I rest. People are getting old. It's time for me to exercise more."

Stevenson sighed, "It's all my fault. I didn't do anything to help. I made Advisor Zhang exhausted by doing everything yourself. If anything happens to your body because of it, I'm afraid I'll be having a hard time thinking about it. Advisor Zhang, please. I must take you to the hospital. Otherwise, I can't live with it."

"No need."

"But I must."

"I said no!"

"No, I must!"

...

Two days later. On the roof of a destroyed clock tower in Philadelphia. Smith was blocked in the corner by a group of black-clothed men. He sat paralyzed, blood gurgling from his thighs. The leader was holding a gun, pointing it at his head from above.

"Now tell us, Where's the stuff!"

Smith's eyes were calm: "I don't know what you're talking about."

"Bullshit!"

The leader of the men in black pulled the trigger. There were two thumps. Smith's legs had two more bloody holes.

As if he could not feel the pain, Smith said, "If you have the guts, kill me."

The leader of the men in black aimed his gun at his head and poked it hard, "You really think I'm scared, don't you?"

Smith put his head on the muzzle of his gun, "If I'm not dead today, then you're just a pussy on the streets."

"You really want to die, huh?!" The leader was so furious that he almost killed Smith and violated the order given by his boss.

Just then, a burst of gunfire suddenly rang out. A masked man with a machine gun in his hand fired at them. Several black men were too late to dodge and were all killed by random gunfire. The leader of the black-clothed men died without being able to fire that shot.

The masked man stepped forward and shot the black-clothed men one by one before walking up to the already semi-conscious Smith.

"I told you to find somewhere safe. Why don't you listen to me?"

His voice was hoarse, and his voice seemed to have been extremely badly damaged. He looked at Smith and shook his head slightly. Then squatted down and seemed to want to check Smith's wound. Unexpectedly, Smith suddenly lifted his head and gave him a grin.

The masked man was startled and turned around to try to escape. Behind him, another Smith pointed a gun at his head.

"Don't move, or I'll shoot."

The "Smith" who had fallen to the ground slowly got up, and it looked like the injuries he had suffered before were fake. His face slowly changed and eventually reverted to Zhang Jue's appearance. This was the ability Zhang Jue had acquired from SCP2006 - Shapeshift.

"Who the hell are you?"

The real Smith held his gun and pointed it at the masked man. When the masked man saw this, he knew he had been trapped. He put down the gun in his hand and didn't seem to intend to resist.

Then he pointed to his mask, "Just take it off and see."
