Resident Evil: Eddie [EN]

"You don't understand, money is the best thing in the world." Brian also sneered back. He had participated in the war between the opposing sides. He didn't trust anyone, even if that person was his comrade in arms. Only money will not betray him.

As for collecting strange objects like taxidermy, it was just his strange personal hobby.

"To defend your position, you also need a lot of money to bribe, right? Turn off your recorder; there's no point in using a mainstream trick like this." Eddie sneered. Did the other party think he was stupid? Want to try using the tape recorder to take advantage of him?

"Are you kidding? There's no such thing here." Biran shook his head.

But suddenly...

*Bang!*

As soon as Brian finished speaking, Eddie punched the thick table to pieces. After that, take the voice recorder.

"No? Then what is this tool? Don't try to mess with me, you're just a rat in Umbrella's eyes."

"Umbrella has research bases all over the world, and you have no idea how terrifying that can be."

"If you want to die, go ahead. Don't involve me in." Eddie threw the voice recorder at Lisa.

Lisa grabbed the tool with one hand, and the next second she squeezed it into diamonds... No, to pieces! Not even leaving valuable anything in the recorder.

Brian, who saw the power, was immediately stunned.

If he wasn't mistaken, only Sergei's high-level bodyguard possessed that kind of terrifying power. Previously Brian was lucky enough to see Tyrant Ivan with his own eyes; even standing so far from the two of them made him tremble.

"Yeah, I'm sure you're not investigating me." Brian hastily compromised.

Eddie raised his index finger, "No, that's not what I'm talking about. Did you collaborate with William Birken?"

"What do you want me to do?" Biran didn't hide it; he knew that Eddie and Umbrella weren't on the same side.

"Nothing, did Umbrella give you orders to deploy heavy weapons elsewhere?" Eddie asked again.

"No, why?" Brian shook his head; he didn't know why the man asked this.

"Do you know what William is doing in the underground lab? He did a very heinous test, do you know how the cannibals got to this city? Do you know what really happened in the Arklay mountains?" Eddie said sneeringly.

"I don't know, I'm only responsible for the money they gave. But Umbrella said they would sort this out themselves." Brian raised his voice frantically.

"There's no point in screaming. Stupid, they're working on a deadly virus that can spread through physical contact."

"If you don't want to die, cooperate with me obediently. Umbrella is plotting the worst."

"If you manage to save Raccoon city when warren escapes, what do you think will happen? What will you get?" Eddie acts like a devil; he starts inciting the man.

"I will be the savior of the city! I can get the position of senator, a critical senator!" Brian's eyes lit up; he seemed to see a big road in front of him. Isn't this a better way to make money?

"Right, you will rise to the top position, you will also get the opportunity to get higher rights and a lot of benefits."

"But the premise is, you have to stay alive; if you become one of those cannibals, will you become a senator?" Eddie leaned back into the soft chair like a boss.

"What's your advice, Eddie? I know you're a brilliant person; what do you think I should do?" Brian was curious; he always wanted more; he could only count on Eddie at this point.

Even though he didn't know what Eddie wanted, he was sure he could make this collaboration work.

"Go and convince Warren to give me some of the money to develop a drug that can prevent people from becoming those cannibals."

"I could develop some vaccines that will make sure you don't become a zombie after being bitten. Wait for my instructions, I'll tell you what to do later." Eddie said simply. There was always an inexplicable light of wisdom in that man's eyes.

"I see... Don't try to lie to me, or I'll get you in serious trouble." Brian tried to threaten.

"I just want to make money, and so can you. If I can make a name for myself, you will earn a lot of money too, besides, remember your future promotion. Maybe the richest people in the Federation will ask you later."

"I'm afraid you'll need to hire an accountant to calculate your fortune then." Eddie laughed.

"Haha, then let's work together!" Brian held out his hand, welcoming the prospect of wealth he would receive in the future.

"Let's work together." Eddie answered with the same smile. Now the plan has been accomplished.

Eddie's plan was simple, he would manage everything behind the scenes. Let Brian fight the fire personally. If the Raccoon City Crisis happened, there would still be Marvin who would provide support and collect data and samples.

As for Brian? There would be Tyrant-003 developed by Umbrella to take care of that guy... As long as William didn't kill Brian early.

***

Ada Wong witnessed a chaotic scene in the north near the Arklay mountains. She didn't expect that the T-Virus would have such destructive power.

Humans that are attacked by monsters will mutate within one day after being bitten; even if they die, they will eventually become zombies.

The detectives who came here were clearly understaffed; they didn't know the zombies' power.

"The research institute door on the west area has been destroyed. Now, the only way to the underground research site is in Umbrella? There must be another secret passage." Ada Wong turned and drove towards the abandoned hospital.

After searching for quite a while, Ada Wong decided to return to the apartment. Tomorrow she would investigate the hospital once again. There must be something wrong with the building.

When she arrived, she saw a beautiful blonde woman she didn't know was busy in the kitchen back. Ada Wong doesn't recognize the woman; who exactly is she?

"Ada, take this." Eddie tossed a surprise box.

Ada Wong asked suspiciously. "What's this?"

"Hookshot, that gun is perfect for an agent like you. You should practice more and make sure to master it." Eddie laughed.

Ada Wong's heart radiated a warm feeling, seeing the strangely shaped gun. Even though the man knew she was a spy, Eddie didn't treat her differently.

In fact, the man almost always answered her questions, which touched her deeply.

Maybe she was right; she should extend her partnership with Eddie. It was time for her to think about this decision. 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎
