Resident Evil: Eddie [EN]

"If you just stand there, the zombies will catch up." Claire shook her head helplessly when she saw the three frightened people.

Upon entering the restaurant, Moira slid the metal door, which weighed about a ton, but she moved it like cotton.

Inside the restaurant, there are quite a lot of zombies hanging around. Zombies in research clothes and local people's clothes are mixed in.

"There's something wrong with this restaurant. This restaurant is too big. Are there many people living on this island?" Eddie was confused.

"Yes, but the restaurant is not open to the public. Some of it is used to prepare food."

"Lots of locals work here, and the treatment is quite intensive." said the skinny girl.

Everyone kept walking straight until they reached the VIP room. "Okay, this room is pretty safe. First, introduce yourselves, then we'll discuss other matters after that." Eddie said, crossing his arms.

"My name is Lott, and this is my sister Lily. For this man... he is an outsider trying to investigate the Umbrella facilities on this island."

"But it seems he has lost his memory. My sister and I are natives; thank you for saving us all."

"Everyone on this island started turning into man-eating monsters half a month ago. I don't know what caused this to happen." The man said while holding his aching head.

"Has someone attacked this island?" Ada Wong frowned.

"I don't know for sure; what I do know is there was an explosion, and a monster howled from inside the facility."

"When the locals asked, the mayor just said the horrible noises were coming from the filming set," added Lily.

"There must have been an internal mess that resulted in the T-Virus leaking. Did the water you drink come from natural water or tap water?" Yamata analyzes the situation using his smartwatch.

"All the islanders drink from tap water, but we don't... because we are relatively poor, so we can only drink natural spring water." Lott lowered his head in shame.

"Poverty is nothing to be ashamed of. I used to be poor and am still very poor."

"If you are more confident, you may not be poor again in the future." Eddie tried to cheer him up a little.

"You guys seem to be the only ones who don't have the possibility of mutating. Stay here, and you'll be safe."

"We're going somewhere to take care of something. If we have time, we'll definitely pick you up back." Eddie said as he prepared to leave.

As Eddie was about to leave, detective Ark Thompson suddenly pulled out a magnetic card. "Wait, this is a card that can access those underground facilities."

"Now I remember, I received a commission from my employer to spy on his wife who works here; he wants to make sure that his wife is not cheating." Ark Thompson said while holding his still dizzy head.

"Do you know Leon?" Eddie suddenly asked.

"Leon? Yes, I know him. We were classmates in college. He went to Raccoon City after graduating from the police academy."

"I see... You are the only one who has the ability to look after these two; I'll leave them to you since we still have a mission to do."

"This is a secret Federation mission; you better not ask and tell this to anyone, do you understand?" Eddie said seriously.

"I see. Even though I look untrustworthy, I have my own professional ethics."

"I have an uncle named Kevin; he served as a police officer in Raccoon City; if you have any other questions, you can ask him." Jake patted his chest.

"No wonder... but I need to tell you something; Raccoon City has been flattened and has become a dangerous area like this island."

"For your uncle, he is fine; after the rescue mission, he went somewhere."

"If you have time, remember to invite me to a restaurant." Eddie waved and threw one of his guns so Ark could guard Lott and Lily.

"Leave it to me!" Ark nodded; seconds later, he suddenly remembered something and then tried to catch up with Eddie.

"Wait, this is the information about the facilities I have gathered. I'll give it to you; I hope this helps you."

Eddie took the memory card and handed it to Yamata. "Thank you. Make sure not to make a lot of noise so you don't attract the zombies."

"There's food inside, enough for the next few hours," Eddie said to Ark.

Yamata, who received the memory, immediately operated it via a smartwatch. It turned out that it contained panoramic information on the island's underground facilities.

"This is a map of the facilities. The thing we want should be eighty meters underground."

"There are many large cultivation tanks there; that must be Tyrants."

Using the new map, Eddie's group enters via a dark elevator in the restaurant.

When the elevator reaches fifty meters below ground, some areas require a permit to be opened.

Yamata began to operate his skills to hack the protection. "This will take a while, about ten minutes."

"Then let's go out and have a look. Can you hack it while walking?" Eddie asked.

"Of course." Yamata nodded and followed him out of the elevator.

When getting out of the elevator, the situation of the room looks quite bad. Researchers have turned into zombies; there are even some strange creatures with fish and human genes.

In the distance, gunshots were heard, indicating that a fierce battle was taking place.

After sneaking in, Eddie saw a group of elite soldiers forming a battle line at the gate that led to the stairs.

The elite troops wielded explosion-proof shields as well as assault rifles. The troops tried hard to knock down the zombies that kept attacking them.

Yamata whispered, "That troop is a special android unit. A clone and the newest invention of Umbrella."

The android troops are not silicon items sold online but humans made with cloning technology.

They have no brains and can only be controlled using a computer chip.

In addition, they have certain orders; if the orders are triggered, then their bodies will explode to eliminate the evidence.
