I’m In Charge of SCP

Chapter 62: The Serpent's Hand

Zhang Jue is not an omniscient god, and he was able to recognize the fake Hunter's disguise for his own reasons. It had been known that everyone had disappeared and only one person remained here, so that person itself was suspicious.

Zhang Jue maintained this skeptical attitude throughout the exchange and discovered the fake Hunter's mistake. When Zhang Jue mentioned the dragon, he looked a little unnatural. When Zhang Jue tried to push the topic further and said he would find the dragon's nest, he panicked.

It looked as if he didn't want anyone to go near this GOC camp, let alone search for the dragon's nest.

I'm just joking. The only reason Zhang Jue recognized the fake Hunter is that he wasn't affected by SCP-180 at all.

When Hael carried the Fake Hunter up from the cliff, he was a white man in his fifties with a mustache in Zhang Jue's eyes. In just a glance, it was clear that something was not right.

But when Davis "recognized" him at once, Zhang Jue didn't say anything more. But upon observing their interaction, Zhang Jue felt something was off. How could these two people be friends? Their styles didn't match.

Knowing a few anomalous objects stolen from the Foundation months ago, Zhang Jue immediately guessed the situation. He had always been the only one to lie to others, but this was the first time he had been lied to. If he didn't beat him up and make him crippled, how could he still be in the protagonist circle in the future?

The fake Hunter originally wanted to pretend to be mysterious to have more time to spend with them. But he did not expect that a young man called Zhang Jue would blow his cover. Without saying a word, he came up and gave him a big slap on the head, and he was dumbfounded by what had just happened.

The imaginary battle of wits between him and Zhang Jue didn't happen. This Zhang Jue was different from all the enemies he had ever encountered. Fake Hunter had been in this business for many years. He was considered a senior. It was the first time in all these years that he had been insulted by someone like this.

"You." He pointed at Zhang Jue, too angry to speak.

"You what?" Zhang Jue smacked his finger away, "Stop pointing your fingers at me or I'll chop it off and serve it to Hael!"

Fake Hunter glared at Zhang Jue, but his finger didn't dare to stick out anymore. Judging from Zhang Jue's previous action, he believed that his opponent could do it.

But what he didn't expect was that he had lowered his hand, and Zhang Jue slapped him with another yell, "What the hell are you looking at?!" Under the eaves of the house, one has to bow down.

Zhang Jue had a gun in his hand, and the fake Hunter wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to seize it. Zhang Jue had been very alert, making him feel like there was hope. But afraid that it would be failed and he would receive another slap for nothing.

For the matter of not being able to look directly at Zhang Jue, He had used SCP-1013 and SCP-087-1 abilities. To give his impression that Zhang Jue is not playing around.

Zhang Jue was in the middle of a fight when Hael finally couldn't stand watching and quietly pulled his sleeve, "Advisor Zhang, you should stop fighting for now. As a matter of urgency, we should first figure out who he is and where the GOC personnel has gone."

Davis' eyes became red, "Advisor Zhang, let me do the interrogation. I promise to make him tell the truth!"

A glimmer of hope flashed in Fake Hunter's eyes. As long as he didn't have to face Zhang Jue, he was still very confident in dealing with the others. But what he didn't expect was that his hope was flushed in the next second.

Only to hear Zhang Jue say, "What a nuisance. Just drag him out and throw him off the cliff. There are only a few people in the Serpent's Hand anyway. Even if we kill him, no one will avenge him."

Fake Hunter faintly froze, and his face sank, "How do you know I'm a member of the Serpent's Hand?"

Seeing that he had indeed admitted it, Zhang Jue gave a heated smile. "I actually don't know about that. Now that you've mentioned it, now I do know you're a Serpent's Hand member."

It turned out that Zhang Jue was actually tricking him!

Fake Hunter was furious, "You brat-"

"Hael, bring me a knife!"

Seeing that Hael was rummaging around in his backpack, Fake Hunter immediately withdrew his finger. He grunted and looked away.

His original plan was to make a fake story that Chaos Insurgency did it. After all, the Chaos Insurgency's purpose was unknown, and it often did unexpected things, which made it the best choice to blame them. As long as something went wrong, it would be fitting to dump it on them. But unfortunately, Zhang Jue had revealed his identity in one go.

That he's from the Serpent's Hand.

-----

Like the GOC, the Serpent's Hand is an important organization in the SCP Foundation universe. But compared to other organizations, they seem to be more mysterious and unpredictable.

The total number of people in this organization is unknown, their technology is unknown, the number of SCP objects owned is unknown, and the threat level is unknown. We know that they are very dangerous, and their numbers are growing rapidly as more anomalies appear in the world.

Don't think it is as big as Chaos Insurgency and GOC, but it is hard to give an accurate estimation. It is believed to be responsible for many containment breaches, and even the SCP Foundation has not suffered much at its hands.

While there are many unknowns about this mysterious organization, the goal is clear. To free any anomalous objects in the world, especially humanoid and SCP entities with higher intelligence. They stand against the containment and destruction of SCP objects, especially those that don't need to be destroyed.

They believe that humans and anomalies could coexist in the world.

It can be said that the purpose of the Serpent's Hand is the exact opposite of the GOC. Because of this, the two organizations were always fighting each other with their own belief. They attack and infiltrate each other, and much of the information about the Serpent's Hand in the SCP Foundation is provided by the GOC.

The headquarters of the Serpent's Hand is located in the Wanderer's Library, located in an unknown place. In addition to the members of the Serpent's Hand, it isn't easy to enter the Wanderer's Library for people from other organizations. The GOC once raided the library and hanged the librarians. Eventually, they were kicked out of the library and never allowed to enter again.

In a nutshell. Serpent's Hand is an organization that lives up to its name and shouldn't be messed with.

Knowing the identity of the Fake Hunter, Hael was stunned. He asked Zhang Jue, "What are we going to do with this person?"

Zhang Jue thought for a moment, "Deputy Site Director Harvey and the MTF squad will be here in a few hours. You and Davis keep an eye on him and let Harvey transport him back to headquarters. Then leave him to those bigwigs."

Hael was a field agent and always shied away from such things that had to do with politics; he and Zhang Jue had always thought, just don't let things get to you anyway.

"Eh? Advisor Zhang." Hael hesitated for a few seconds before responding, "Keep an eye on him and wait for Deputy Site Director Harvey? What about you? What are you gonna do?"

"Me?" Zhang Jue pointed to himself and then to Hael's shoulder patch, "Hey, watch your rank before you speak like that. What am I going to do is none of your business."

After hearing his words, Hael's expression went sour as if he was about to vomit, knowing what he had just said. Zhang Jue felt comfy with his action. It felt so good to press people with power, and he should do this more often in the future as it was good for his physical and mental health.

As for his purpose, he doesn't say that he was going to find that dragon's nest.
