Resident Evil Redemption

The morning sun caressed the ruins through the stars, and everything returned to silence.The propeller blows the green grass on the ground mixed with the fragrance of the soil.

"God, what the hell is going on here?" A man disembarked from a helicopter, wearing a STARS police uniform, and several more descended.None of them answered, but conducted their investigation in silence.

"Hey!" One of the team members bent down and pulled out an old wallet from under the half-covered stone slab, "Gentlemen..." He didn't say any more.Because the blond, pretty girl in the photo was one of them, and he knew her.

"The little girl from their Alpha team, isn't it?" The rest of Charlie's team leaned over, "What's going on?"

"Don't stand still! See if you can find the body!" The captain finally spoke.

Jill is late for this battle meeting.Although she was about to go out, the key fell into the coffee cup for some reason, and when the key touched the bottom of the coffee cup, there was an indistinct thud. Jill stopped in her tracks, staring at the steaming mug with an expression of disbelief, and this time the folder under her arm fell to the floor again, scattering the papers inside.

"Ah, really..." She vaguely sensed something was wrong.

Jill looked at her watch, took the coffee cup with one hand and returned to the kitchen. Wesker had already informed her that the meeting would start at 9 pm and asked all members to attend.In other words, even if you rush to the parking lot without stopping, find your car, open the door and sit down, there are only [-] minutes left.This is the first time an intelligence meeting has been held.

"I am the only one who has this kind of thought. Director Irons will think that this kind of thinking is completely nonsense, and the people in the team will think that I just fell into sadness, so I have hallucinations..." Chris said thinking.Because last week he received the news of the death of his childhood friend Bill in the middle of the night.This is also the most direct reason why he left the team to investigate alone.

Chris had just turned the corner of the hallway and put the thought away for a while.In the middle of the hallway came the sound of boot heels hitting the ground.In order to find out the reason for Bill's death, he should do something.Concentrate, focus your mind on the problem—however, it's exhausting.Since answering Bill's phone call, he has been eroded by restlessness and lack of sleep, and his vision seems to be gradually blurring.Perhaps my own objectivity has also been dulled by the series of recent events...

As Chris moved closer to the STARS office, he tried not to think about other issues, but to sort out the meeting in his mind.Overhead fluorescent lights illuminated the narrow hallway as if it were daytime, which was indeed a little too bright for night lighting.The Raccoon City Police Headquarters is an old building. There are still parts of out-of-standard buildings and many mosaic colored bricks. There are many windows designed to collect daylight.This building was Raccoon City's City Hall when Chris was a kid.Later, as the city's population increased, it was renovated as a library.After that, it became a police station four years ago.In short, it has undergone countless reconstruction projects...

The door to STARS' office was open, and the voices of men talking loudly carried into the hallway.For a moment, Chris hesitated, and could hear Director Irons' voice in it. Chris shook his head when he heard Irons' sullen voice, in disbelief that the guy was commanding STARS - even though it was indeed a city councilman.Maybe even more unbelievable, but I'm afraid this guy is going to be the mayor of Raccoon City someday.

Of course, it's normal for that guy to hate you, Chris?

Ah, exactly. Chris is not a jerk who likes to flatter.And Irons is not a completely incompetent waste, he has received professional military training.So despite a hundred reluctances in Chris's heart, he stepped into the small and cluttered room that was used as the STARS team's office and operations headquarters.

Barry and Joseph were talking about something in a low voice while looking through the documents in the box on the table. Brad, the pilot of Alpha Squad, is drinking coffee and staring at the computer screen.A look of unhappiness appeared on his steady face.In the back of the room, Captain Wesker was sitting in a chair, hands folded behind his head, smiling eagerly at Director Irons' speech. Irons leaned against Wesker's desk, carefully stroking his beard with his fat hands as he spoke.

"So, I was like, 'As long as you let me print, I'll print. And you care so much about this, you'd never get permission from me in this office again'. I was To that guy..."

"Chris!" Wesker interrupted the Director, standing up. "It's great of you to come for real. Then we'll stop talking nonsense."

Although Irons looked a little upset, Chris still put on a deadpan look. Wesker also stopped paying attention to Irons, but faced Chris with a very solemn attitude, although he could still see the sparkle in his eyes, but at the same time there was a sense of confidence.

"Hey, Captain..." Chris asked, "Where did Shrine go?"

Yeah... where the hell did she go...? thought Wesker.It has to be said that an inexplicable empty emotion welled up from his heart.

Jill trotted all the way to the open office door of STARS, feeling relieved when she heard Wesker's voice.Because when she first arrived at the building, she saw a helicopter just leaving, and Jill thought it was her teammates. STARS is a quick reaction force in the sense that it's really not for people who can't keep up with anything.So Jill secretly calculated in her heart that she must participate in this case from the beginning.

"The Raccoon City Police Headquarters has expanded the search area to 1, 4, 7, and 9, which have been handed over to the external search team. Therefore, the area we are responsible for is the central area, where the Br□□o team will land... ..."

At least Jill wasn't terribly late, and Wesker was going through the same sequence as the previous combat meetings—an update, a briefing, followed by a response to questions. Jill took a deep breath and walked into the office. Wesker was standing in front of the office, gesturing on a map marking where the victims' bodies had been found.Although Jill hurried to her desk, Wesker didn't stop talking.Inadvertently, Jill felt as if she was back in basic training, and being late for class was probably the same.

As soon as she sat on the chair, Chris next to her smiled at her, and Jill nodded quickly, then focused her eyes on Wesker. Jill has arrived, but Chris is still very concerned about Shrine's absence.That's never been her style.Logically speaking, she should be back today.

"After low-altitude flights in other central areas, the Br□□o team will send back a detailed report, and we will know which area to focus on."

"But what about Spencer's private property?" Chris asked. "The real problem is that there is the central area of ​​the crime scene. If we start from there, we can conduct a more comprehensive search..."

"Of course, once the information sent back by the Br□□o team mentions this area, there is no doubt that we will search that place."

Chris looked skeptical: "However, if their intelligence shows that there is nothing wrong with this seemingly occupied territory, we can only abide by the agreement with Umbrella..."

Wesker returned to his seat with no expression on his face. "Chris, we all want to find out the truth. But we have to act as a team. Besides, the best way to get closer to the truth is to bring back the missing hikers who might know the truth. Br □□o Conducting preliminary investigations, we also have something to do. This is the rule.”

Although Chris frowned, he didn't continue talking.Faced with Wesker's answers, Jill was also suppressing the urge to contradict.All of these things he said were true, at least in theory.But there's also a political element to it, as Director Irnos hopes. Irnos made it clear that he was the person in charge of the search operation when this series of events happened. Jill doesn't care about this kind of thing, except for the deceitful behavior of Wesker who claims to act according to his own ideas and is not a politician. After Jill joined STARS, she never paid attention to the bureaucracy within the police authority, so she didn't have the obvious concerns that Wesker had about the director.

Joseph and Barry were thinking silently at the side. Everyone already knew about Chris's views on the murder case, and he believed that these organized attacks must be related to other external forces.And Wesker also asked Chris if he wanted to add some new insights to this idea, and Chris just shook his head silently.

Wesker capped the black marker and sat on the table staring at the blank space on the whiteboard, as if thinking about something. "This is our starting point, you all have to read the police and forensic reports carefully, and ask witnesses for details..."

"This is Brad, please," said Brad quietly in the earphones behind him, interrupting Wesker.

The captain lowered his voice and continued: "In the current situation, although we still don't know what our opponent looks like, I know that everyone here has doubts about the handling of the situation by the Raccoon City Police, but Now what we have to do, I..." "What?"

Brad's voice was loud, so Jill and the others turned their heads to look at him. Brad looked flustered, standing up and grabbing the talkback mic on his headset with one hand. "Br□□o team, please answer. Repeat, Br□□o team, please answer!"

Wesker stood up and said, "Brad, put on the amp!"

Brad hastily pressed a button, and there was a crackling noise in the room. Jill pricked up her ears, desperately trying to find a human voice among the cacophony, but for a few tense seconds, she couldn't hear anything.

After a while, I was finally able to hear: "... Can you hear it? The function is disabled, we... no..."

The intermittent voice disappeared again in the subsequent noise, and it sounded like it was the voice of Enrico, the captain of the Br□□o team. Jill bit her lower lip, and Chris looked around everyone with worried eyes.Judging from Enrique's voice, he seemed to have fallen into a semi-crazed state.After a while, although everyone was still listening, they couldn't hear anything.

"Location?" Wesker asked through gritted teeth.

Brad's face was livid: "They, uh... Area 22, the end of C... But, the signal disappeared. The transmitter is also offline..."

Suddenly, his words were interrupted.Another, clearer sound signal comes in.

"This is Team Charlie, this is Team Charlie! There is an emergency!"

"Got it, report it immediately!" Wesker frowned.

"Alpha team female member Shrine Corova was confirmed dead in the early morning! Location, Area 21! Over!"
