Infinite: Starting from Resident Evil

Chapter 162! Everyone goes back to their homes

……

"Sorry for keeping you waiting."

An hour later, Mam, who had entered the room through the hidden door, opened the main door and spoke to Alice and Tifa, who were sitting at the door drinking tea and waiting.

She then stepped aside and left with her people, after which Shen Ye and Scarlett came out.

"Why did you stay for so long? Was the massage really that comfortable?" Alice walked up to Shen Ye and asked in confusion.

"Yes, it would be a real shame if you didn't give it a try," Shen Ye said with a light cough.

"I don't like strangers touching me, not women either." Alice shook her head vigorously. From childhood to adulthood, she had only had close contact with her biological mother and adoptive mother. Of course, now she had to add Shen Ye to that list.

Then her eyes lit up as she looked at Shen Ye: "Why don't you give me a massage when you get home? You've been enjoying yourself for so long tonight, you must have learned a lot of massage techniques!"

Upon hearing this, Shen Ye choked on his own saliva and coughed violently. He hadn't learned any massage techniques tonight...

"Are you unwilling?" Alice pouted in dissatisfaction.

"No," Shen Ye quickly shook his head. "As long as you don't mind, I can help you."

“That’s more like it.” Alice proudly raised her head toward Scarlett, but only saw a faint smile on his face, as if he didn’t show any envy or jealousy.

Alice was immediately deflated; she had wanted to give the other person a hard time…

Tifa, who hadn't spoken until now, noticed something was wrong. The lingering flush on Scarlet's face and the seductive look in his eyes seemed familiar to her, like seeing herself in the mirror while taking a shower last night.

However, she was only guessing. After all, Mam came out with them, and they wouldn't be that bold, would they?

Tifa shook her head slightly, thinking to herself, "I'm probably overthinking it."

……

"Welcome to visit us again!"

Amidst Mam's charming farewell speech, Shen Ye and his group left the massage parlor.

It was already late at night, but the walled shopping street was even more lively. The crowded street was not only filled with Shinra employees, but also with people from other slums who came here to have fun.

Even the Shinra security soldiers guarding the entrance to protect Scarlett were intoxicated by the decadent atmosphere, tapping their feet to the music coming from the distant dance hall.

When they saw Shen Ye and his group come out, the security soldiers realized what was happening and quickly stood at attention.

"Minister, are we going anywhere else?" a security guard asked. "I've already notified several major powers in the vicinity, and they're ready to receive us."

Scarlett didn't speak, but simply looked at Shen Ye. Now, she could say that she would listen to him in everything.

Sensing Scarlett's gaze, Shen Ye knew that the other party was asking for his opinion, and he immediately fell into deep thought.

Speaking of which, there are quite a few fun places in the walled shopping street, such as the bee pavilion and the underground arena, as well as some places where you can have a good time.

But it was already quite late, and they had been shopping all day and were quite tired, so Shen Ye didn't really want to stay there any longer.

However, Shen Ye still decided to seek their opinions.

"Alice, Tifa, do you want to continue playing?"

Alice replied decisively, "I'll do as you say."

Tifa nodded: "Me too."

Well, it was a wasted question.

Shen Ye shook his head helplessly and said directly, "Let's call it a day and go home!"

“I’ll drive you,” Scarlett said, pulling out his keys.

"No need," Alice spoke up before Shen Ye could. "I know a shortcut back to the Fifth District. You can take Tifa there."

Scarlett immediately looked at Tifa: "Want a ride?"

Although Tifa hated Shinra, she agreed without any hesitation.

It's not that my opinion of Scarlett has changed, but rather that I have some questions for her.

“Then get in the car!” Scarlett said to Tifa as he opened the car door.

Tifa nodded, but instead of getting into the car immediately, she walked over to Shen Ye, gave him a tight hug, and then turned and got into Scarlett's car.

"Be careful on the road," Shen Ye waved and gave a word of advice.

"Okay!" Scarlett winked at Shen Ye and said.

……

After watching Scarlett's car leave, Shen Ye, led by Alice, took a shortcut back to his home in the Fifth District.

It was past midnight, and Ms. Emina was already asleep. So when Alice opened the door, she put a finger to her lips and shushed Shen Ye.

"Don't wake my mom!"

Shen Ye nodded and tiptoed up to the attic, but he had only gone halfway when he found that Alice had followed him.

"Aren't you going back to your room?" Shen Ye asked in a low voice.

“Of course I’ll go back, but not now.” Alice also lowered her voice: “Don’t forget what you promised me before, you were going to give me a massage.”

But I don't know how!

Shen Ye really wanted to say that, but remembering that he had already promised Alice, he could only nod with a wry smile.

Alice always tidied up Shen Ye's room. Although there were still only a few pieces of furniture, Alice filled the few cabinets with flowers, so as soon as you entered, you could smell the refreshing fragrance of flowers.

As soon as Alice entered the room, she pounced on Shen Ye's bed, and then, with a slight tremor of her legs, she shook off her shoes.

"Come here quickly." Alice lay on the bed and whispered to Shen Ye to come over.

Shen Ye scratched his head, then reluctantly walked over and sat on the edge of the bed, looking at Alice.

"What are you waiting for?"

Seeing that Shen Ye was only staring at her and not making any moves, Alice was immediately dissatisfied.

"I'm trying to recall the massage techniques." Shen Ye recalled the massage techniques Mam had used when she massaged him earlier, but it was too short, and there were hardly any movements.

“Do I need to remember? Just do the same thing that woman did for you,” Alice said.

Shen Ye could only sigh, then reached out and straightened Alice's body, before carefully kneading her back.

"Not that great!"

After pressing the buttons for a while, Alice yawned out of boredom; it was completely different from what she had imagined.

"Haven't you learned any other techniques?" Alice asked again.

Shen Ye didn't know how to answer. He had used some special techniques on Tifa and Scarlett before, but what were those situations, and what were they now? He could only increase the force in his hands.

After pressing for a while, Shen Ye suddenly heard a steady breathing sound. He looked down and found that Alice had fallen asleep.

With a slight sigh, Shen Ye prepared to carry Alice back to her room, but as soon as he picked her up, Alice clung to him.

"I'm so sleepy, Shen, don't touch me, I'll sleep in your room," Alice murmured.

Hearing Alice's words, Shen Ye hesitated for a moment, but still held her and lay down on the bed.

"Goodnight, Alice!" Shen Ye kissed Alice on the lips and said.

……

Chapter 163! Scarlett's Plan

……

Ever since Emina saw him and Alice coming down from the attic together this morning, Emina's gaze towards Shen Ye has been strange.

There was scrutiny, appreciation, solemnity, and a touch of nostalgia...

Shen Ye found it hard to imagine that so many emotions could appear in one pair of eyes at the same time.

"How did you sleep last night?" Emina asked Alice as she ate breakfast.

"It's alright..." Alice didn't dare to look up at her mother. The mother didn't blame her; she was just shy.

"Oh!" Emina nodded, then turned to Shen Ye: "And you?"

“I’m the same as her, Ms. Emina,” Shen Ye said.

"In that case, you two can share a room from now on," Amina said. "Running up and down the stairs is such a hassle, isn't it?"

Upon hearing this, Shen Ye and Alice exchanged glances, then their eyes revealed surprise.

……

Inside the Shinra Corporation, on the disc.

As usual, Bao Tiao arrived at the office early.

However, as soon as he opened the office door, he saw a woman in a red dress sitting in his office chair.

“Scarlett.” Hojo’s eyes narrowed behind his round-framed glasses as he called out the woman in the red dress’s name in a cold tone.

Although they both worked for Shinra Corporation, his science department and Scarlett's weapons development department had never crossed paths. Now, Scarlett had entered his office without any prior notice, which surprised him and made him somewhat angry. His eyes, as sinister as a viper's, radiated a dangerous light.
