Infinite: Starting from Resident Evil

"That's good." Alice breathed a sigh of relief and then smiled at Shen Ye, but Shen Ye was engrossed in eating and didn't notice.

Alice immediately became dissatisfied and kicked Shen Ye under the table.

"Ah! What's wrong?" Shen Ye looked up at Alice with a puzzled expression. "Didn't Ms. Emina agree?"

"Idiot!" Alice exclaimed angrily, shoving down her spoon after taking a few large bites of food.

"Eat quickly, we still need to go to the church to pick flowers later."

"Mmm!" Shen Ye nodded vigorously, shoveling the food from his plate into his mouth like a whirlwind. After chewing a few times, he swallowed it and said to Amina, "Ms. Amina, I'm full. I'll be going now."

"Be careful on the road," Emina said with a smile.

"Don't worry, Mom, we'll be careful," Alice said to Emina from the doorway, having already picked up the flower basket.

……

After selecting the flowers to sell in the church, it was getting dark. Alice and Shen Ye, each carrying a flower basket, boarded the city train heading to the commercial district.

Inside the train carriage, many people heading to the commercial district for their night shifts looked at Shen Ye with curiosity.

Over the years, they had only heard of flower girls, but this was the first time they had ever seen a flower boy.

Even though Shen Ye has a fairly thick skin, he still felt embarrassed under the gaze of so many people, especially when some eyes kept moving back and forth between him and the flower basket.

"Alice, I really want to get off the bus," Shen Ye whispered to Alice sitting next to him.

"No way." Alice noticed the stares of those around her, but seeing Shen Ye's utter embarrassment, she was actually smiling more happily than anyone else.

"You promised me, you can't give up halfway!" Alice said again.

Shen Ye could only sigh, then lower his head and stare blankly at the carriage floor.

Fortunately, the Midgard city train was fast, and Shen Ye's ordeal in the carriage didn't last long. As the train entered the commercial district station, Shen Ye breathed a long sigh of relief, then continued to follow Alice with his head down.

After following Alice for several streets, he heard her say, "Shen, you stay here, I'm going over there." She pointed to the street across the street.

"We'll meet here again around ten o'clock," she added.

"Okay!" Shen Ye nodded, then watched Alice leave.

Chapter 143! Watching the Show

(The missing chapter from yesterday has been completed; readers can now directly read the second half of the previous chapter.)

……

The commercial district where Shen Ye and Alice are located is near Mako Reactor No. 1, which is also where this series of stories begins.

However, because it was a commercial area, the huge flow of people made it incredibly lively, and Alice's figure was quickly swallowed up by the crowd.

Shen Ye carried a flower basket and strolled aimlessly through the streets. Selling flowers was out of the question; he couldn't bring himself to promote them to others. Anyway, he had already exchanged some money from the system store. He would give some flowers away and then give the money to Alice, saying it was money earned from selling flowers.

With this thought in mind, Shen Ye naturally felt no pressure. Carrying the flower basket in one hand, he walked in the opposite direction onto other streets.

As Shen Ye walked, he admired the street scene of the commercial district. After all, this was where the story began, and after the Mako Reactor was destroyed, he might never see it again.

However, to be fair, although the commercial district is very bustling, it is still somewhat inferior to the commercial districts of Shen Ye's real city. After all, no matter how bustling this place is, it is only a small part of the upper level.

Of course, Shen Ye was still watching with great interest, after all, Midgar had a strong punk style, which is something you can't see in reality.

"Worth every penny, absolutely worth every penny!" Shen Ye thought to himself, looking at the dense array of neon billboards lining the street.

After looking around, Shen Ye felt he couldn't go any further and prepared to turn back. But before he could even take a step, he saw a crowd of onlookers gathered outside a station not far away.

Is this something fun to watch?

Shen Ye immediately became interested and walked over with the flower basket.

However, because the street was already packed with people, Shen Ye couldn't get through and could only stand on the outside, tiptoeing to look inside.

Although he was quite tall, he didn't expect there to be so many people watching the spectacle. No matter how high he stood on tiptoe, he could only see a dense crowd of heads.

Having no other choice, Shen Ye patted the person in front of him on the shoulder.

"Is there something you need?" The man turned around, saw that it was a strange man, and immediately frowned with some displeasure as he asked.

"Hey friend, what's going on in there?" Shen Ye asked, taking out a few banknotes and stuffing them into the man's hand.

The man looked at the money in his hand and was stunned for a moment. After noticing that Shen Ye was carrying a basket of flowers, he muttered, "Is selling flowers so profitable?" before answering Shen Ye's question: "I'm not too sure, but I heard from the people in front that Shinra Corporation seems to be moving cargo robots."

"Cargo robots?" Shen Ye became even more interested. He knew that Shinra's technology was extremely powerful, with some technologies being at least twenty years ahead of reality. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for Shinra to control the entire Midgard on its own, or even win the war against the Five Kingdoms.

"Yes, I heard it's the latest model, and they're planning to test it in the commercial area," the man added.

"Oh, oh!" Shen Ye nodded repeatedly, then continued to tiptoe and look inside, but still could only see a large number of heads.

He couldn't help but feel a little regretful; as a man, he couldn't refuse a robot, especially a large cargo robot.

With a slight sigh, Shen Ye turned away dejectedly, preparing to leave.

But at that moment, the crowd suddenly became agitated. Someone shouted, "Run!" and then the crowd surged out as if they were going crazy.

Hearing the commotion behind him, Shen Ye turned around and looked back. Just as he was feeling a bit confused, a series of gunshots rang out in the station. Stimulated by the gunshots, the crowd became even more chaotic. Accompanied by piercing screams, unlucky people were constantly being pushed and shoved by the crowd, and then trampled over by pairs of feet.

Seeing this, Shen Ye was stunned for a moment, then frowned.

"Could it be Avalanche? But that's impossible. Claude hasn't even shown up yet, and Marlene just got home. Barrett wouldn't make a move at this time, would he?" Shen Ye thought to himself.

Just as he was wondering what was going on, the crowd had already reached him. However, his physical abilities were far superior to those of ordinary people, and he stood firmly in place like a nail in the crowded throng.

"I want to see what's going on." Shen Ye watched the flow of people passing by, then casually stopped someone and asked, "What's happening inside?"

The man was panting heavily, his pale and distorted face contorted with fear, appearing somewhat grotesque under the neon lights of the street.

"The robot... the robot has gone out of control." The man was stopped by Shen Ye, and although he was very dissatisfied, he still answered.

"The robot is out of control? Wow, is it that exciting?" Shen Ye was stunned. Just as he was about to ask more questions, the person he had stopped tore off his clothes, broke free from his grasp, and continued to run away.

Shen Ye glanced at the man's back, threw away the piece of cloth in his hand, and continued looking into the station.

By this time, with fewer people around, he could see the situation inside the station more clearly.

Inside the station, a giant robot several meters tall was waving its enormous arms, attacking the Shinra soldiers around it.

Although the Shinra soldiers were all armed, as a new model of cargo robot, its body was incredibly strong, and bullets that hit the robot were deflected.

With each swing of its arm, the robot could smash several Shinra soldiers into mincemeat. Gradually, some Shinra soldiers couldn't withstand the pressure and fled with the crowd.

"You bunch of bastards, come back here and find a way to stop it!" A mature woman's extremely wicked voice rang out from the chaotic crowd, but it was immediately drowned out by the screams of the crowd.

"Run, Minister!" a Shinra soldier shouted.

"Damn it, this is the only way." The mature female voice rang out again, then disappeared.

Meanwhile, Shen Ye was rushing against the crowd into the station.

Because the out-of-control giant cargo robot, after killing all the Shinra soldiers nearby, had begun to target ordinary civilians who hadn't had time to run far away.

Those ordinary people were mostly the elderly and children, and when they tried to escape, they couldn't squeeze past the young and strong, so they remained inside the station.

Although Shen Ye was not a great saint, he did not want to see those people being mercilessly slaughtered by robots in front of him. Moreover, he himself had some abilities. With this in mind, he decided to do something.

Shen Ye rushed in without drawing his gun, heading straight for the cargo robot.

At that moment, the robot was chasing a woman in a red dress.

……

(There will be another chapter later)

Chapter 144! The Bad Woman

……

Because the woman in the red dress was wearing high heels, she couldn't move very easily. As a result, she could only dodge awkwardly when attacked by the cargo robots. Moreover, because of the dress, she tripped over the hem of the dress several times.

When the woman in the red dress tripped over her own dress again and tried to get up, the cargo robot's huge arm was already slamming down on her.

Seeing herself about to turn into a pile of minced meat, the woman in the red dress felt a sense of despair. She was quite open-minded about death, but she just didn't want to die this way.

"I'll look terrible after I die like this. The people the company sends might have to use a shovel to collect me. That would be awful. I really hope that when they hold my memorial service, the company will hang up my photo on my desk." As the huge mechanical arm hurtled towards her, countless thoughts flashed through the woman in the red dress's mind. Then, she closed her eyes resignedly.

However, just as she closed her eyes and awaited death, she suddenly felt a strong hand grab her waist, and then her body was lifted into the air.

"Hey! What's going on?" The woman in the red dress suddenly opened her eyes and found herself being carried under the arm of a black-haired, black-eyed man, running wildly towards the exit of the station.

I'm saved!

A flicker of excitement flashed in the woman's beautiful eyes. Just as she was about to express her gratitude, Shen Ye put her down.

Before the woman in the red dress could even stand properly, Shen Ye shoved the flower basket into her hands.

"Keep an eye on this for me," Shen Ye said. "Don't lose it."

The woman in the red dress looked at the flower basket in her hand, then nodded vigorously.

"I will keep a close eye on it."

Shen Ye nodded to her, then rushed into the station to rescue the others.
