Chapter 226

Dr. Clef laughed until he had tears in his eyes, looking back at the empty ward, becoming even more unbridled.

As if a bunch of secret cameras should be hidden there, filming this scene.

Dr. Kondraki frowned.

Huge question marks popped up from the top of his head and fell back down, smashing him until he was dizzy.

0.......

Clef continued.

"This is much better than when I told Gears that Alice hacked into my vision and convinced me to get rid of the competition! Before he found out I was talking nonsense, he almost made that little monster have an MRI to check if her brain was infected… but screw it, that cold-hearted bastard doesn't have any emotions at all, not nearly as funny as you, you motherfucker!"

Dr. Kondraki's face distorted, his eyeballs bloodshot, and his muscles were trembling all over……

He was beyond furious.

"……You bitch-born liar!"

The more he was like this, the happier Dr. Clef was, cheering for his outstanding acting and superb lies.

"Hahaha, cough cough cough—haha—cough cough—"

Violent coughing couldn't suppress Dr. Clef's laughter, nor could it block his mouth.

"This is the part that really sucks, Kondraki……"

"What if I'm lying right now? And what if the place you primitive apes call heaven is currently wide open, ready to be breached by my followers? What if you die, your soul crosses the border, and you find that the gates of heaven are covered by the bloody wings of the god nailed to the wall?"

"What if I'm here, ready to lead you to your eternal reward? And what if I got ███, and showed her everything you will never 【DATA EXPUNGED】?"

"Hahahaha—"

"You animal! I'm going to kill you!"

"You will never get rid of thinking about this, Konny! It will exist in the depths of your mind forever, whispering, repeating, endlessly harassing you, spinning in an endless vortex……"

"Clef, say one more word, I swear……"

"For a stormtrooper, aren't you a bit short?"

Dr. Clef patted his belly happily, like a happy seal.

Facing a seal patting its belly, the best response is the "Killer Whale Fist."

"Haaahhhhhh—!"

Dr. Kondraki knocked over the laughing Clef with one punch, grabbing his head and slamming it against the corner of the table.

At this point, the scene ended, leaving only a pure black screen.

And in the background sound, there was the sound of impact ringing out one after another.

"Thud!"

"Thud!"

"Thud!"

……

A total of nine sounds.

Afterward, there was the sound of violent beating, and the sound of the wooden chair falling apart.

It lasted for several minutes.

After the angry footsteps and the sound of the door slamming violently.

Lines of text emerged:

【After review by the "Event 239-B-Clef-Kondraki" review committee, the following judgment is made regarding Dr. Clef's suddenly worsened injuries.】

【Dr. Clef was not brutally attacked by Dr. Kondraki, but accidentally hit the corner of the table, repeatedly.】

【This fractured his skull and broke his second and third vertebrae.】

【Dr. Clef is still in the intensive care unit, paralyzed from the neck down.】

【Dr. Kondraki has been cleared of all responsibility for the event.】

【The above content is true; we have footage. But your security clearance is not high enough.】

After that text, only a black screen remained.

The audience recalled the last scene and couldn't help but laugh.

The people living on the Luofu Luofu Xianzhou even suspected whether the horoscopes of Dr. Clef and Dr. Kondraki were incompatible.

And Dr. Clef was still trying every way to tease Dr. Kondraki until the end; even after being beaten up, it didn't diminish his comedic color.

By this time, the audience understood.

Why Dr. Clef was called a "liar" by the other four doctors of the apocalypse.

It turns out he had the attributes of a prankster all along.

No matter when or where, or who he was talking to.

Dr. Clef had stories prepared layer by layer in his heart, some true and some false, making the other party unable to distinguish, shaking their stance, and being bewitched by his words.

Wait until the other party's cognition had cracks and they started to doubt their previous thoughts.

Then he would suddenly pop out and mock the other party for being fooled by him.

If it were normal times, Dr. Kondraki would probably just get angry and that would be the end of it.

But unfortunately, this time, Dr. Clef really went a bit too far, and Dr. Kondraki also had resentment in his heart.

The two superimposed.

Dr. Clef getting beaten up severely could be considered reasonable.

And on the screen, lines of text emerged.

It was time for the customary post-event summary.

【File Name: Event 239-B-Clef-Kondraki】

【Time: ██ Year █ Month █ Day.】

【Affected Area: Site-17】

【██ Year █ Month █ Day, the Foundation rescued an infant at ██; after confirmation, the infant "Zero Four Three" was a reality bender and could exert extremely strong distortion on reality.】

【The O5 Council finally passed a motion for the Foundation to raise the infant and gave it the SCP number 239.】

【Former GOC agent, Dr. Clef, had always held opinions on the Foundation adopting SCP-239 and believed that its uncontrollable reality-bending power could lead to uncontrollable results.】

【SCP-239 demonstrated talent for reality bending during its growth, but also alerted the O5 Council time and time again that the Foundation needed means to constrain SCP-239.】

【Finally, the "Witch Girl" plan proposed by Dr. Gears was passed and began to be implemented.】

【██ Year █ Month █ Day, after SCP-239 resurrected a dead bird, Dr. Clef warned it, causing SCP-239 to misunderstand Dr. Clef's words.】

【Originating from this wrong cognition, SCP-239 changed its attitude toward Dr. Clef from caution and vigilance to hostility, finally transforming into erasure.】

【Dr. Clef, upon realizing his own will was being distorted, attempted to issue a warning to the Foundation, but this process was forced to end as the distortion was completed.】

【Afterward, Dr. Clef issued an execution declaration.】

【DATA DELETED】

【When attacking Site-17, Dr. Clef used excessive drugs to put agents into a coma, killed and injured a large number of security personnel, and had a fierce confrontation with Dr. Kondraki.】

【When attacking Site-17, Dr. Clef had inappropriate interactions with a large number of female SCPs.】

【Under Dr. Gears' interference, SCP-239 successfully changed its own cognition, believing Dr. Clef was manipulated by evil forces, and created an unknown life form suspected to be a black dragon.】

【Finally, Dr. Clef put SCP-239 into a deep sleep, Professor Kain killed the unknown life form, and Dr. Kondraki rescued the unconscious Dr. Clef.】

【Losses:】

【45% of facilities within Site-17;】

【Over 80% of security personnel at Site-17 lost their ability to work, of which 30% required long-term hospitalization;】

【Several SCPs died;】

【……】

As the loss list unfolded line by line, the audience watching the live broadcast opened their mouths wide.

The losses caused by Dr. Clef.

Compared to the time Dr. Kondraki executed "The Duke."

It can only be said that it was worse.

Such "talent," no matter where it is placed—organization, civilization, or collective—would make others extremely headache-prone.

Just the fact that it caused a large number of casualties is enough to take him down on the spot and wait for execution after the autumn.

If he escaped, I'm afraid he would be lucky enough to get a hefty arrest warrant.

Herta looked at Asta, who was resting in the space station, with a serious face:
