Kapitel 194: Remember or not, This is the number 1 Question

The door was opened, revealing its contents, and they focused their eyes looking at it. The inside of the safe is not much, but it contains a bunch of boxes.

Medicine box. It was densely written in English, probably the description of the medicine.

Zhang Jue saw that many of the boxes had words written on them. Although he couldn't read English, this was the Antimemetics Division site. He could easily think out exactly what these medicines were, and those were the memory-enhancing drugs that had gone missing from the medical ward.

Zhang Jue took out a few boxes and let Yang Xue take a look at them. After reading the instructions on them, Yang Xue nodded slightly. This was indeed the drug-related to recovering memory.

The Foundation had very advanced memory deletion drugs with various levels of memory deletion drugs from A to F Class that had been widely used in various cases. However, memory enhancement drugs are not commonly used. But they are very important.

They needed memory enhancement drugs so that people could study the Antimemetic anomalies. Memory enhancement drugs are roughly divided into four types. The effect of memory enhancement is getting better and better. But at the same time, the side effects after taking it are also getting more and more serious.

W Class memory enhancers are the lowest grade memory enhancers and can be taken by staff for a long time. This kind of memory enhancer can let the researchers of the Antimemetics Division remember some of the common and not so powerful Antimemetic anomalies, such as SCP-055.

However, if you want to get a more significant effect, you must inject a more advanced memory enhancer. The X Class memory enhancer is one of them. It will rejuvenate the mind and body, but the effect is temporary and wears off within a few hours.

In addition, as the effect wears off. It will be restored at once, causing a harmful reverse torque effect on the subject's physiology. The restorative effect of X Class on human memory is essentially a side effect of these effects. However, this side effect is so effective that it has become the drug's primary use.

The Antimemetic Division uses small doses of X Class to temporarily strengthen or restore short-term memory, which helps Foundation agents accurately recall incidents involving Antimemetic entities.

Lyn Madness, the Foundation's first Head of Antimemetic Division, was injected with an extra-large dose of X Class memory enhancer on the last day of his own life.

He remembered the reason for the establishment of the Antimemetics Division decades ago, and it was from him that the last Head of the Antimemetics Division learned the true nature of SCP-3125, thus starting the battle between the Antimemetics Division and SCP-3125.

Z Class memory enhancer is the most effective memory enhancer. It can be said to be the ultimate trump card of biochemical memory defense. Z Class memory enhancement permanently destroys the user's ability to forget, resulting in perfect memory clarity and immunity to all intensities of Antimemetic effects. But it also comes at a huge cost, and the user will die in a short amount of time.

The reason is simple. In everyday life, our brain helps us filter things out. For example, how many electrical outlets do you have in your house, is the person next to you on the bus or subway a man or a woman, or what color your classmates and colleagues are wearing today?

If you don't have professional training, the odds are that you won't be able to remember this thing. Because the brain does not allow you to put these in, once injected with a Z Class memory enhancer, your brain will become a machine. You can remember everything you see, including the dust in the air, the leaves on the tree will be recorded in the brain without distinction. Under such intense work, the brain will soon be overloaded and thus burned out.

In the process of fighting SCP-3125, people injected this type of drug. But unfortunately, in the end, it only slowed down SCP-3125's invasion of the human world. In order to prevent SCP-3125 from making a comeback, Zhang Jue did not tell these things to Gray and Yang Xue. But they both spoke good English and quickly read the usage of those potions.

It could be said that as long as Gray had injected these potions, they could know what had actually happened on this site. This is the most simple, direct, and effective way. What happened on this site is very strange. No one can tell for sure what these drugs were doing in this place.

They opened the safe so easily that Zhang Jue doubted the authenticity of these memory-enhancing drugs. Gray eyes scowled, obviously thinking of this as well.

"I'll go first." Yang Xue said, "With these drugs sitting here, we're unsure of their validity. If someone switched the contents and something happened to Supervisor Gray, we may never have a chance to learn the truth."

Zhang Jue gave her a look. She did really change.

"You need to think this through." Zhang Jue said, "We can absolutely take them back to the SCP Foundation and think about it in the long run."

"I know exactly what I'm about to do right now." Yang Xue fiddled with her syringe, "What happened here can't wait, and if we evacuate from here, I'm not sure I'll be able to remember this site. There are things that can't be undone if they're missed, and someone has to make sacrifices to make things happen. "

Seeing her resolute attitude, Zhang Jue stopped talking to each other. He seemed to see the shadow of her body. At certain times, women did have more ruthless hearts than men.

Seeing that neither of them had any objections, Yang Xue took out an X Class memory enhancer and drew some out with a syringe. She carefully controlled the measurement according to the warning on the instruction manual.

Finally, she took a deep breath and injected the potion into the vein of her left arm. After the injection was completed, she took a deep breath and slowly closed her eyes. At first, there was no sensation. She only felt a cool sensation on her left side, as if she had just injected herself with a syringe of ice water instead of a memory-enhancing drug. The cool sensation continued all the way to her heart and then was squeezed by her heart to her brain.

Just then, she suddenly felt her senses sharpen a bit. She could even feel certain nerves in her head slowly growing. Some scenes that she had long forgotten resurfaced in her mind.

Her father takes her to the amusement park, corrects her homework, and her father disappears. Then she joined the Foundation and later met Zhang Jue...

Yes, it was the man in front of her, and she fully recalled everything the two had experienced. Contained SCP-682, explored SCP-087, Site-14's infiltration…

Each time this somewhat unreliable person was able to save the day at a critical moment, and the most important thing is that they really are very good friends. Then they came here in search of her father.

Yang Xue carefully recalled according to the timeline. They convinced Gray to bring the other personnel along to explore the site.

Just as they opened a certain door, there was a blank. Yang Xue covered her head. Even after injecting a shot of an X Class memory enhancer, she still couldn't remember what happened after Zhang Jue opened the door.

Was it not enough? Yang Xue picked up her own syringe and opened another X Class memory enhancer bottle. This time, Zhang Jue took hold of her wrist. Yang Xue raised her head and saw Zhang Jue looking at her calmly.

"It's okay." Zhang Jue said.

"After you opened the door. Why did we suddenly appear in the building on the right? and what happened in between? I still can't remember."

"No need." Zhang Jue shook his head, "It doesn't necessarily help us know about it. There's a lot to figure out that needs both of our strengths together."

Yang Xue looked at Zhang Jue and finally nodded. She put down the drugs in her hand while turning off the safety on her pistol without a trace. This action was seen in Zhang Jue's eyes. He smiled faintly.

It seemed that she had only pretended to trust him before, and it wasn't until she recovered her memory that she really let down her guard on him. Instead of being angry, Zhang Jue was somewhat relieved.

Whether it was her professional skills or the drug, she could already care for herself. At this rate of development, sooner or later, she could be the Site Director of a particular site and perhaps go even further. However, this was not the time to think about such things.

Zhang Jue coughed lightly, and both his and Yang Xue's eyes moved to Gray. As the last supervisor of this site, although it may have been a temporary appointment of desperation, Gray must have been through a lot.

He has been here for too long and has been most severely affected by the Animemetic anomalies. Gray would have to use a high-class memory enhancer to find out what happened here. At least the Y Class.

As long as he can restore his memory, all problems will be solved. But he might turn into a vegetative state because of the side effects.

Without making Zhang Jue and Yang Xue wait too long. Gray smiled.

"Dr. Yang Xue, lend me your syringe for a while." Yang Xue found a new one and gave it to him.

Gray's left hand picked up a syringe, and his right hand picked up a medicine box from the safe. On it was written a big Z letter. It looked like he was going to inject the most effective but deadly Z Class memory enhancer.

"Supervisor Gray...." Yang Xue said softly.

Gray gently waved his hand, interrupting her words.

"Dr. Yang, you were right just now. There are some things that can't be undone if you miss them, and someone has to make sacrifices to make things happen. There are a total of 425 corpses in that tomb. They should all be my colleagues. If they can all die generously, why can't I? Advisor Zhang, Dr. Yang Xue, I can see that you are competent and have high positions in the Foundation. I only have one request: don't let my colleagues die in vain."

Zhang Jue was a little impatient to hear him talk, and he wanted to kick him aside and pour the Z Class enhancer directly into his mouth. The most important thing to do is to be generous, but it's not as annoying as you say when you're playing a game of 1v5.

However, Yang Xue teared up, and she gently nodded her head. "Don't worry, Supervisor Gray. No matter what, I will not let them die in vain."

Gray closed his eyes and allowed Yang Xue to inject the Z Class memory enhancer into his body. He felt a little nauseous, followed by a wave of dizziness. Soon, he became deaf, and he could see everything around him. He could even hear the heartbeats of both Zhang Jue and Yang Xue.

He closed his eyes and felt that all the memories that had disappeared had come back.

...

"Hello, Gray. My name is Healey. I am the Site Director here. Welcome to the Antimemetics Division. From today onwards, you will serve as my right hand."

"Sorry, Director Healey. I've never heard that the Foundation has a department called the Antimemetics Division."

"You'll find out later."

...

"Hello Gray, welcome back to the Antimemetics Division."

"Excuse me, Director. I've never heard that the Foundation has a department called the Antimemetics Division."

"No, Gray. It's not your first day on the job. Remember to take notes."

...

"Gray, have you heard of it? Oh, it's normal that you don't know her name. She was the last Head of the Antimemetics Division, and no one knew her except me. Me? I'm just the Director here. Let me tell you this. I have another name. My name is Hera Wheeler. No, I'm not her real daughter. I'm her adopted daughter. Yes, I'm an adopted child, but she's not here. Oh, is Loris adopted by you too? that's wonderful."

"Gray, we seem to be having some trouble. Something strange is happening at the site, but I can't find out why. We need to find some great people to assist."

"Gray, I think I found him. He's an Asian guy, and he's very good. With his own research, he came up with something about the Antimemetics anomalies. He seems to have two trees in his name, a poplar and a pine tree. What a strange name. I'll make sure to have him for help."

"'Two Trees' is a brilliant person. It was great to have asked him for help. According to his approach, I think we will soon know what the characteristics of that SCP are, and it will no longer be able to threaten us. "

"Gray, he advised me to give up. Because that SCP is very dangerous, and it is likely to bury the whole site. He said that we must stay away from it. But I refused him. We no longer have time to think about failure."

"Gray, tomorrow we're going to uncover the true nature of that SCP, and if we fail, you must find a way to survive and wait for the Foundation to rescue us."

"Gray, did you see that? It appeared!"

"Gray, this is goodbye. If it's possible, please take care of my son."

"Gray!"

...

"Who are you? Why am I... still alive?"

"My name is Yang Wensong. Of course, people call me Two Trees. The reason you are still alive is because of good luck, and the other one is… forget it, you can take it as good luck."

"What do you want me for? Where is Director Healey?"

"She is dead... these two keys you have. I have repeatedly tried it, and it will not kill you immediately. But you must survive this difficult period. If you are lucky enough, someone will come to save you and to save all of humanity. That's another backup plan I've had left. You can help me send her a message."

"Her?"

"Right."

"What's the message you'll tell her?"

"To defeat 'it', forget it, and remember it even more."
