Infinite: Starting from Resident Evil

"It hurts so much, it hurts so much, it hurts so much..."

As he paced back and forth in the room, trying to alleviate his physical discomfort, there was a sudden knock on the door.

"Tifa, are you back?" Outside the door, Cloud, still carrying his greatsword, knocked on the door.

……

Chapter 168! Claude's Grief

……

In fact, although the lights were off, Cloud didn't sleep at all; he was waiting for Tifa to come back.

Because he wanted to figure something out.

Although his memories were confused and his mind was somewhat unclear, he suddenly felt that Tifa shouldn't have been so cold to him after being brought here.

So he really wanted to find Tifa and ask her what was going on and why she had suddenly treated him that way.

But when he knocked on the door, there was no response from inside; he could only hear the sound of dripping water.

So he knocked on the door again, raising his voice: "Tifa, are you home? It's Cloud."

Just then, he heard a familiar male voice from inside the room: "Tifa is taking a shower, Cloud, is there something you need?"

"Taking a shower? Then I'll come over later..." Claude's words trailed off as his eyes widened.

Wait, what's going on? Why is there a man's voice coming from Tifa's room?

Even if he's confused now, he realizes that something is wrong.

"You are... Shen?" After thinking for a moment, Claude finally remembered who the familiar male voice belonged to—the person who had been hired by Avalanche with him.

"It's me." On the other side of the door, Shen Ye nodded. "So, Claude, what do you need Tifa for?"

"How did you end up in Tifa's room?" Cloud didn't answer Shen Ye's question, but instead asked in disbelief. His mind was blank, and he had suffered a severe blow to his spirit.

“Tifa and I are already living together, why can’t I be in Tifa’s room?” Shen Ye retorted, “But what are you doing here looking for Tifa so late at night?”

“Living together…? That’s impossible. I remember Tifa clearly liked…” Cloud didn’t say “I” in the end. He thought about his experiences over the years, how he had been away from his hometown and Tifa’s side for so long, and he was no longer sure.

But before he could say it, Shen Ye added, "You mean to say that Tifa clearly likes me, right?"

"Yes!" After a moment of silence, Claude answered with great difficulty.

"It's a pity, Tifa likes me now." Shen Ye said bluntly. Although it was hurtful, there was nothing he could do. Matters of the heart have always been cruel.

"This can't be, this can't be. It's only been a few years, I've only been gone for a few years." Claude suddenly felt a splitting headache and muttered to himself, clutching his head.

"Several years is a long time, Claude." Shen Ye

Just then, the bathroom door opened, and Tifa, wrapped in a bath towel, came out, drying her wet hair with the towel as she asked, "Shen, who are you talking to so late? Is it the landlady? What are you doing here so late?"

“It’s not the landlord, it’s Claude.” Shen Ye pointed to the door and said, “He wants to see you.”

"Cloud?" Tifa stopped drying her hair, her expression suddenly becoming complicated, a hint of panic flashing in her eyes.

Cloud, who heard Tifa's voice from outside the door, seemed to feel his headache ease considerably and quickly called out, "Tifa, can you open the door? I want to talk to you."

"I'm sorry, Cloud, I just took a shower and I'm a little uncomfortable right now." Tifa bit her lip and declined.

"Inconvenient?" Upon hearing this, Claude stood frozen in place as if struck by lightning, his heart filled with bitterness and sorrow, unable to calm down for a long time.

After a long while, he came to his senses and said dejectedly, "I understand. In that case, I can only wish you all the best."

"Thank you, Cloud." Tifa felt a pang of pain and guilt, but mostly a sense of relief.

“Heh…” Claude just gave a bitter laugh and then returned to 202.

After closing the door, Claude clutched his head and squatted on the ground in anguish. At that moment, the image of a woman suddenly appeared in his mind.

Claude was no stranger to this figure; whenever he had a headache, this woman would appear in his memory.

In his memory, this woman liked him very much, and he liked her very much too, not much less than Tifa.

“It’s alright, Claude, you still have people who like you.” Claude muttered to himself, “I’m still lucky.”

Unfortunately, the figure was not clear in his memory, and he did not know the woman's name.

……

Hearing the door close next door, Tifa let out a long sigh of relief. Then she turned around, handed the towel in her hand to Shen Ye, sat down on the sofa, and beckoned to Shen Ye: "Shen, help me dry my hair."

Shen Ye nodded, walked over and sat down next to her, wrapped her hair in a towel and began to gently rub it.

"That's great!" Tifa said with her eyes closed. She was extremely envious when Alice asked Shen Ye for help in front of her last time.

Then she continued, "Shen, why don't you and Alice move in together? There are plenty of rooms at Tianwang Manor anyway."

“I would like to, but Alice’s mother probably wouldn’t agree.” Amina only has this one daughter. Although she is not her biological daughter, she has raised her for so many years. In addition, she was adopted after her husband died in the Battle of Wutai, so her significance is extraordinary.

"Then let's call Alice's mother over too. She's getting old and needs someone to take care of her." Tifa held Shen Ye's hand, then pulled the towel aside and lay in Shen Ye's arms, saying, "Anyway, I'm free most of the time, so I can help take care of her mother."

Holding Tifa in his arms, inhaling the delicate fragrance emanating from her, Shen Ye's hands involuntarily reached for her breasts. At the same time, he said, "Let's talk about this later. I'll have to discuss it with Alice and ask for her opinion."

"Mmm!" Tifa bit her lip and nodded. She was starting to feel it and couldn't help but look up and give her a kiss.

After their lips and tongues intertwined, Shen Ye found the towel between them very inconvenient, so he ripped it off Tifa's body.

The perfect body beneath the bath towel was completely naked, and its flawless white skin seemed to reflect a halo of light under the lamp.

"Ugh!" A blush appeared on Tifa's face as she felt the large hands roaming over her body, and she couldn't help but let out a soft moan.

Then, Shen Ye picked her up and carried her to the bedroom.

"Tifa, keep your voice down, Cloud is next door!" Shen Ye said, biting Tifa's ear with a rather mischievous grin.

Chapter 169! Operation, Mako Reactor No. 1!

(Previous chapter completed)

……

After a night of hard work, Shen Ye and Tifa woke up very late. They had both worked hard all night and didn't want to get up.

It wasn't until noon that Shen Ye finally got out of Tifa's bed, had lunch with her, and then returned to the Fifth District.

Just like yesterday, Alice locked herself in her room. However, surprisingly, Amina was also at home and did not go out to work.

Upon seeing Shen Ye return, Amina expressed her dissatisfaction to him for the first time: "Where did you go last night? I didn't see you all night."

"I'm sorry, Ms. Emina, I had to go out last night." Shen Ye didn't dare to say that he went to see Tifa, otherwise Emina would definitely fight him to the death.

“Listen, Shen, whatever you’re going through, Alice’s condition isn’t quite right right now. You’d better stay home these next few days and keep her company, understand?” Emina had a pretty good impression of Shen Ye, so she didn’t ask any further questions and just gave him this instruction.

“I understand.” Shen Ye nodded, then walked to Alice’s bedroom door and gently knocked.

"Alice, I'm back."

click!

As soon as he spoke, the door was opened, and Alice appeared in front of Shen Ye with a haggard face.

"Shen, I'm so sleepy." Upon seeing Shen Ye, Alice hugged his waist tightly and pressed her head against his chest.

Seeing Alice, who seemed to have not slept all night, Shen Ye felt a pang of pain in his heart. He then picked her up and carried her to the bedside.

"I want to sleep in your arms," ​​Alice murmured, without letting go of her hand, her eyes closed.

“Okay!” Shen Ye nodded and then sat on Alice’s bed.

……

And so, Shen Ye stayed at home with Alice for three days.

Three days later, as night fell, a train arrived at a station near Mako Reactor No. 1. Two Shinra soldiers, dressed in full uniform and armed, inspected the arriving train according to regulations.

One of the soldiers nodded to his teammates and began walking along the back of the vehicle, his wary eyes constantly scanning the vehicle, not wanting to miss any clues.

When he reached the fourth carriage, he suddenly heard some strange noises behind him.

He immediately turned around and saw that his companion had suddenly disappeared.

Realizing something was wrong, he raised his gun and immediately ran towards where his companion had been standing. But halfway there, a man wearing a red headband suddenly appeared behind him and covered his mouth with his hand.

As an elite soldier of Shinra Corporation, even with his mouth covered, this soldier did not give up resisting and swung his gun behind him.

However, the man wearing the red cable ties was not acting alone. Just as the Shinra soldier raised his gun, another woman wearing a cable tie on her head jumped down from the top of the train, took a few quick steps, and kicked him in the stomach.

"Wow!" Although this Shinra soldier had received rigorous military training and was physically stronger than the average person, the kick still made him feel like a boiled shrimp. He curled up, then everything went black and he passed out.

"They're really weak!" Jesse, who had a red cable tie on her head, grimaced. Then she waved to the roof of the train, and several more people jumped down from the top.

"Hurry up and don't waste any time." Among the people who jumped down was Barrett, the leader of the Avalanche branch.
