Infinite: Starting from Resident Evil

He couldn't help but think that no matter what world or what status a woman might have, she was really... picky when it came to shopping, even witches were no exception.

Just then, Enzo's family left the children's clothing store with bags and packages. Shen Ye quickly snatched the children's clothes from Jeanne's hands, hung them back on the hanger, and then pulled her along to follow them.

As the reluctant witch was pulled out of the store, she was still muttering, "Wait a minute, Shen, I'm really happy with that dress. We can buy it for our child."

Shen Ye was utterly exasperated by the witch's thought process: "Let's talk about it when we have children. It's too early now."

"Let's start making a baby when we get home tonight. Anyway, you said you're very interested in the process of making a baby."

"..."

Feeling the gazes directed at him from all around after hearing the witch's words, Shen Ye remained silent with an expressionless face.

Miss Witch, you can say these things when you get home...

This time, he truly felt the witch's enthusiasm and initiative... which made him both like and annoyed!

……

(Okay, I was perfectly fine before I left work, but when I got home I found that I had inexplicably caught a cold. I felt sore and weak all over. I took some medicine and then became drowsy. Luckily I remembered that I had only updated one chapter today, so I forced myself to wake up and write, but even so, it still dragged on until now...)

Chapter 502! The Black Knight

……

After buying children's clothes for their child, Enzo's family did not stay in the mall for long before leaving. They hailed a taxi on the roadside and began putting things into the trunk.

Seeing this, Shen Ye also reached out and flagged down a taxi that was about to start moving. However, there were already passengers in the taxi, who looked to be a young couple.

"Sir, this car is already occupied." The driver honked the horn impatiently and said to Shen Yegan, "Please go to the next car."

Shen Ye smiled and shook his head, then took out two 500 euro notes from his pocket and handed them to the passenger sitting in the back.

"Get off the bus, and this money is yours."

Although Country D is considered a developed country within the EU, its average wage is actually not high. When the young couple, who appeared to be a married couple, saw the thousand euros handed over by Shen Ye, they got out of the car without saying a word. As the car door closed, they even waved happily at Shen Ye and Jeanne.

Shen Ye ignored them and looked up at the driver, saying, "See that taxi up ahead? Follow him. Go wherever he goes. As long as you don't lose him, I'll pay you double the fare... Of course, I mean double the fare to get out of the car."

The driver's impatience had vanished long before Shen Ye gave the couple 1,000 euros as a fare. Hearing this, he patted his chest and said in a gruff voice, "Sir, please rest assured, I guarantee we won't lose them."

Two thousand euros! Even after taxes, it would take him half a month to earn that.

Then the driver asked excitedly, "Sir, you and the lady next to you have such distinguished airs. Are you perhaps the legendary secret agents, and the person in the car ahead is a transnational criminal?"

“Yes, we are Interpol. That short, fat man up ahead is our target.” Joan of Arc continued the driver’s words in a serious tone, “You’ve seen that guy, he’s short, fat, and ugly, so his personality is very perverted. Don’t be fooled by his wife; that’s just to cover up his identity. In reality, he’s bisexual, especially fond of strong men. He usually rapes and then kills them, so driver, you need to be careful when you’re following him, don’t get discovered.”

"I...I will..."

The taxi driver was a strong white man, but despite his tall and muscular build, he still trembled with nervousness when he heard Joan of Arc's words.

Shen Ye admired the driver's imagination and Joan of Arc's unreliability, but he also felt that the witch did indeed have this kind of playful personality.

Seeing the nervous driver, Shen Ye said irritably, "Jenny, you scared him."

"Also, driver, she was just joking. The people in the car in front are just ordinary people... Jenny, you should explain it yourself."

Seeing the driver's disbelief, Shen Ye had no choice but to look at Joan of Arc.

But the silver-haired witch smiled and didn't say anything. She just hugged Shen Ye's arm tightly and rested her head on his shoulder.

Smelling the witch's fragrance and feeling the soft comfort on his arm, Shen Ye could only smile helplessly.

Although the driver believed the silver-haired witch's words without a doubt and was also very scared, under the temptation of money, he bravely followed the car in front and kept a distance of one or two car lengths behind, neither too close nor too far.

Soon, the two cars drove onto an overpass in the city, one after the other.

Perhaps it wasn't yet rush hour, but there weren't many cars on the overpass. Including the taxi that Shen Ye and Zhen De were in, there were only four or five cars driving on the overpass as far as the eye could see.

At this moment, the driver nervously glanced back at Shen Ye and Zhen De: "Sir, Madam, should we slow down? There are too few cars on the bridge; if we keep following them, we'll be spotted."

But Shen Ye said, "No, just accelerate, the closer the better."

At this moment, he and Joan of Arc could sense that the demonic aura was getting closer and closer. Clearly, the hostile demon was preparing to make its move in this sparsely populated area.

Therefore, both of them were now gripping their pistols at the same time.

However, just as the driver accelerated, the taxi carrying Enzo's family suddenly seemed to lose control, swaying from side to side, and then, as if grabbed by an invisible hand, was violently lifted into the air.

"God... God..."

The driver was terrified when he saw this and started calling out to the so-called omnipotent God. Then, he turned around to ask the two "Interpol agents" behind him what to do, only to find that the two people were no longer in the back seat. Instead, there were four banknotes pressed down by the magazine in the seat where Shen Ye had been sitting.

At this moment, because of the appearance of the demon, Shen Ye and Jeanne had already entered the Purgatory Space, so they unsurprisingly saw the demon who made the move.

"Golden Knight..."

Seeing the demon's appearance, Jeanne frowned slightly. Of course, it wasn't that she found it troublesome, but rather that although the Golden Knight was now a demon, he had at least evolved from a human knight and still retained some of the knightly spirit. She never expected him to attack an ordinary human.

"Could it be... that short, fat man tricked him out of something very important?"

Joan of Arc then looked at the taxi that Shen Ye had lifted up with one hand. The driver and passengers inside screamed in terror, and the sound of Enzo's two children crying made the scene extremely tragic.

Upon hearing the child's cries, Joan of Arc's brow furrowed deeply. She hadn't liked children before, but things were different now. So she asked coldly, "Knight, why are you attacking them?"

"By order of my lord, the Black Knight." The Golden Knight could sense the demonic power emanating from Joan of Arc, a power of a high-ranking demon that even he could not touch. The pressure emanating from her rank compelled him to answer the witch's question.

“The Black Knight… When did such a character appear in Hell?” Joan of Arc murmured to herself. She had never heard of this name before.

But soon, Lady Styx responded to her.

"A newly promoted demon, huh? I see."

Joan of Arc nodded slightly, then said to the Golden Knight, "Knight, go back and tell your master that we have protected this person. As for the future... well, you can't do anything to him for now."

The Golden Knight looked at Joan of Arc, his crimson eyes, hidden deep within his helmet, flickered a few times, then he gave Joan of Arc a knightly salute and vanished into thin air.

Shen Ye had already returned the car to its original location, but the driver abandoned the car and ran away immediately after it hit the ground, leaving Enzo's family still inside.

"Where's your professional ethics, bro..." Shen Ye curled his lip as he looked at the swaying transparent figure, then turned to look at Jeanne, only to find that the huge knight had vanished.

"Where is he?" Shen Ye shouted at Joan of Arc.

Joan of Arc struck a magnificent pose, proudly raising her head: "He was scared away by me."

……

(This is a linked image, I guess it counts.)

(Also, having a cold is really awful!)

Chapter 503! Matchmaking

……

"It ran away?" Shen Ye was a little surprised. The fight hadn't even started yet, how could it have run away?

However, he didn't think much of it and called out again, "Then come over here first and take me back to the human world."

But after hearing his words, the silver-haired female demon remained rooted to the spot, motionless.

“Jenny… uh, okay, I think I get it.” Looking at Joan’s proud little expression, Shen Ye took a deep breath and then exclaimed, “Jenny, you scared away such a big demon, you’re really amazing.”

Women with a bit of narcissism are fine to be praised.

Sure enough, upon hearing his words, Joan of Arc beamed with joy and immediately ran over.

Because of her previous experience, Joan of Arc successfully brought Shen Ye back to the human world this time.

At this moment, Enzo's family, who were still sitting in the car, were all startled when they saw a man and a woman suddenly appear beside the car. However, Enzo, who often dealt with demons and angels, quickly reacted.

"Quiet down, they're not bad people." Enzo turned to his wife and two children and gestured for them to be quiet, then turned to Shen Ye and Jeanne and said gratefully, "Thank you for saving our family."

"Don't mention it," Jeanne said before Shen Ye could speak, then waved to the two children who were covering their mouths and looking at her and Shen Ye curiously, "Hi! Hello."

Clearly, the silver-haired witch in the white dress looked much kinder than when she wore the red leather jacket, and the two children immediately let go of their mouths and waved to her.

"Hello, sister," one of the little girls called out.

Upon hearing the word "sister," the witch's eyes immediately narrowed with a smile.

Shen Ye glanced at the overjoyed silver-haired witch, shook his head slightly, and muttered to himself, "Women, they're all the same. She could be someone's great-great-grandmother..."

Of course, on the surface, he smiled and said to Enzo, "Don't mention it. We were just helping out when we saw injustice."

He said that in English, but the meaning was roughly the same.

It took Enzo quite a while to understand what that sentence meant. He then expressed his gratitude and handed two business cards to Shen Ye and Jeanne.

"My name is Enzo. I'm an information broker and I know quite a bit about supernatural events. If you two need anything in the future, feel free to contact me. As long as it's within my power, I'll definitely do it." Enzo thumped his chest loudly, making a solemn promise.

Although he was cunning, treacherous, greedy, and cowardly, he meant it seriously, after all, the other person had saved his family.

Shen Ye put away the business card that only had his name and contact information printed on it, nodded and said, "Since you put it that way, then I won't stand on ceremony from now on."

“There’s absolutely no need to be polite.” Enzo patted his chest again, then emphasized, “Of course, that’s assuming I can do it.”

“Okay.” Shen Ye nodded, but he didn’t think much of it. The only use of this short, fat man was to help him connect with Bayonetta. As for other help, he didn’t need to count on him at all.

However, it wouldn't be right for Shen Ye to be too proactive in making connections, so he asked Jeanne, who was still playing with the two children, "What's your home phone number?"
