Item #: SCP-CN-2878
Object Class: Keter
Special Containment Procedures: Currently, as containment of SCP-CN-2878 is difficult, Site-CN-81's Information Management and Safety Department shall filter the Internet for relevant information every three months. Owing to the low probability of discovering SCP-CN-2878, the Foundation has elected not to carry out further containment.
Description: According to currently available information, SCP-CN-2878 is conjectured to be an anomalous phenomenon caused by Culex mosquitoes throughout the world.
When one or more Culex mosquitoes is killed by a human subject using any part of their body, SCP-CN-2878 has a 3.7% chance of occurring within the next 10 to 30 seconds. At this point, the eardrum of the subject will begin to autonomously vibrate, sending information to the brain. The information produced by SCP-CN-2878 is fixed and consists of "the wings of some kind of mosquito buzzing while flying back and forth"; the killing of multiple mosquitoes can cause multiple occurrences of SCP-CN-2878 to overlap.
Under normal circumstances, this sound will persist for 1 to 3 minutes; during this period, subjects with a CRV less than 9.0 will have a tendency towards being impulsive and quick to use force.
Discovery: On 1997年02月03日, Senior Researcher Chen Shuoyuan, assigned to Sector-CN-81-4, was performing reverse-engineering on [DATA EXPUNGED] when he killed a mosquito that was disturbing his work and induced the effects of SCP-CN-2878. Under its effects, Researcher Chen showed irritability and irrationally instructed Zan-Line.aic to use low-grade kill agents to clear the room of mosquitoes. After Zan-Line.aic replied that there were no more mosquitoes in the sealed room, Researcher Chen put in a request to the Site Director to check for latent anomalies, which was rejected. Researcher Chen then used his own credentials without permission to conduct experiments and confirmed the existence of an anomalous phenomenon.

Addendum 2878-C || Testing Log:
Experiment #: 2878-C-1
Subject: D-0129 / 100 Culex mosquitoes
Procedure: D-0129 spent 16 minutes killing 100 mosquitoes. In this period, his auditory nerve recorded 5 anomalous signals.
Note: As I'd thought. The eardrum is definitely vibrating on its own.

Experiment #: 2878-C-75
Subject: D-5566 (CRV measured at 9.3) / 50 Culex mosquitoes
Procedure: D-5566 spent 12 minutes killing 50 mosquitoes. In this period, his auditory nerve recorded 4 anomalous signals. No negative effects were detected on D-5566's mental state.
Note: Current data shows that the probability of recording an anomalous signal is around 3.0~4.0%, and that using mosquitoes not of the genus Culex does not cause the anomalous phenomenon to occur. My guess regarding the CRVs is also correct; those with a CRV below 9.0 are more susceptible to the anomalous effect. I will report these findings.

Addendum 2878-D || Related Item:
Personal note (1998年02月19日): It might have been a mistake. Every time I run a large-scale statistical survey, the rate at which SCP-CN-2878 occurs is higher than the last — in other words, it strictly increases. Even if it's just a few tenths of a percent, to be pessimistic, SCP-CN-2878 may be increasing in occurrence as time progresses. This buzzing noise is really annoying
