Infinite: Starting from Resident Evil

"I didn't expect the scenery here to be so beautiful." Lyon exclaimed in surprise as he looked at the town.

"No wonder you come here to travel. Damn it, when will I be able to travel all over the world like you?"

“There will be opportunities, Lyon. Don’t forget your current job,” Shen Ye said. “Business trips can be treated like vacations, and you might even get reimbursed!”

"I hope so," Leon said sullenly.

……

(I drank again tonight, and I'll make more revisions tomorrow.)

Chapter 111! Casual Chat... News with Jill

After the SUV entered the town, Shen Ye paid the guide a large sum of money, a gesture that left Lyon speechless.

Even after getting off the bus, Leon was still muttering, "The fee you just paid the guide is equivalent to two months of my salary. Can you tell me how you make money?"

"It was blown in by the wind," was all Shen Ye could say.

“That must be the wind blown by the goddess of fortune, Woking,” Leon murmured.

Then, Lyon walked to the side, took out a satellite phone, and contacted his teammates.

"Hey, Krauser, where are you now?"

Even from several meters away, Shen Ye could hear the furious voice coming from the satellite phone: "Damn it, I'm in some trouble. I really want to pull out my gun and kill all these bastards."

Then Shen Ye heard a woman's voice on the phone: "Calm down, Krausa, they are just a group of civilians."

"What's wrong with civilians? They're getting in my way!" Krauser yelled. "Hannah, get out of my way, I'm going to take them down."

Listening to the conversation on the phone, Leon said, "Okay, calm down, Krauser. Now tell me, how long until you get to the rendezvous point?"

"Tomorrow, or maybe the day after tomorrow." After a long while, Krausa finally spoke. He was persuaded by the woman named Hannah not to fire.

“Alright then, I’ll wait for you to come. I hope you don’t run into any more trouble on the way,” Leon said.

"I hope so," Krauser said, then hung up the phone. (Edited slightly; the original storyline had Krauser arriving first, Leon's plane being shot down, and he arriving last.)

"Your teammate has a bit of a temper," Shen Ye said after seeing Leon put away his satellite phone.

“He’s always been like this.” Leon and Krauser came from the same training camp and knew him well: “He likes to get stuck on things, he likes to lose his temper, and he’s always getting stuck on things.”

“But there’s nothing I can do, he’s my teammate,” Leon added.

"This kind of person is hard to get along with; they might do something outrageous one day." Shen Ye decided to give Leon a heads-up.

“Not really. He’s a pure soldier.” Leon pointed to his head. “He’s just single-minded and has a very simple mind.”

"This kind of person is terrifying. If he sets his mind on something, he might just go down a dark path."

“I will help him correct it,” Leon said confidently.

"Uh... alright then." Shen Ye could only shake his head helplessly.

Then he asked, "What are we going to do now? We need to find something to do to kill time before your teammates arrive."

“Of course, we’ll find a place to have a drink.” Lyon had clearly done his homework: “This place used to be a Spanish colony, and it’s famous for its wine. We can’t miss it.”

"Drinking is fine too," Shen Ye nodded.

“However, you’ll pay for it.” Leon suddenly hooked his arm around Shen Ye’s shoulder: “You’re a rich man.”

“But you just said your salary is very high,” Shen Ye exclaimed.

“But you also said that your money comes from thin air,” Leon chuckled and said, “That’s much better than my hard-earned money.”

……

As it turns out, the colonial history is a thing of the past. Although the town of Seine still retains some of the customs left by its former colonial power, it has developed its own unique taste in terms of wine.

The town of Seine, located between the Colombian and Brazilian borders, is more famous for its fruit-flavored beers, produced in the unique climate of the rainforest region, than its wines.

The two found an ordinary restaurant, each ordered a large glass of beer, and sat down by the roadside to drink.

While drinking, they also chatted about recent events.

“Shen, I heard that a security consultant in our area is planning to set up a special anti-biological weapons investigation agency to shut down the FBC.” As a comrade-in-arms who came from Raccoon City together, Leon did not treat Shen Ye as an outsider and directly shared some information he knew.

"This has nothing to do with me; it's your own country's business." Shen Ye wasn't interested in this, even though he had met the FBC and that security advisor in Roanapur.

“You’re right, this organization has nothing to do with you. However, through some channels, I’ve learned that one of the people in this newly established organization is connected to you,” Lyon said after chugging down most of his beer.

"Who?" Shen Ye had only played the game, and he had only skimmed the beginning of some parts of the story, so he wasn't very clear about some of the plot.

“Jill Valentine,” Leon chuckled. “That Raccoon City policewoman.”

"Is Jill...is she alright?" Upon hearing news of Jill, Shen Ye quickly asked.

“I heard she’s doing alright. Someone ordered her to be spared. You know, some people in Congress don’t like those who survived from the Raccoon City Police Department and have always wanted to get rid of them.” Leon finished his drink in one gulp, raised his hand to call a waiter, and continued, “The person who gave the order is a presidential candidate. He has many supporters and his words carry weight, so don’t worry, Jill will be fine.”

"That's good." Shen Ye said after a moment of silence, feeling a pang of guilt at the same time.

"Ha!" Leon glanced at Shen Ye and patted him on the shoulder. "I said, have you thought it through?"

"What have you decided?" Shen Ye was taken aback.

"How to handle the relationship between you two?" Leon said with an air of experience: "I remember very clearly, there was also that woman named Ada who had an ambiguous relationship with you."

"This..." Shen Ye didn't know what to say, after all, he had slept in the same bed with Ada just a few days ago.

“It seems you haven’t made up your mind yet.” Seeing Shen Ye’s slightly hesitant expression, Leon nodded understandingly: “Jill and Ada are both good girls, beautiful and with good personalities. If it were me, it would be hard to choose between them.”

“But you can’t betray any girl,” Lyon continued. “Besides, bigamy is illegal, and it’s the 21st century now.”

"I think they won't mind," Shen Ye said, scratching his head for a long time before finally managing to utter a sentence.

Leon: “…”

"And I can't let anyone down," Shen Ye continued.

“Whatever you want.” Leon shook his head. “I really can’t imagine what will happen on the day you two get married.”

At this point, Leon took another big gulp of wine, and a strong feeling of envy suddenly welled up in his heart. After all, he had broken up with his girlfriend the day before he entered Raccoon City.

With a sigh, Lyon raised his hand again to ask the waiter for more wine, but just then, he heard a surprised female voice call out:

"Thank God, Shen, I actually saw you here."

……

(I've been drinking again; Chapter 2 will be updated later.)

Chapter 112! The Head Maid and the Little Maid

The voice came from behind Shen Ye, so before Shen Ye could turn around, Leon shouted exaggeratedly.

"Shen, what did I see? It's a beautiful lady dressed as a maid, and she's calling you."

He saw a maid carrying a woven basket and dressed in Gothic style looking at Shen Ye with surprise across the street. Next to her stood another maid who was short and looked to be only thirteen or fourteen years old.

Shen Ye knew who it was as soon as he heard the voice. He turned around and greeted Robert across the street.

"Miss Maid, we meet again."

Robert nodded vigorously, shoved the basket in her hand into the little maid beside her, lifted her skirt, crossed the street, and ran to Shen Ye.

"Shen..."

Roberta was somewhat excited, but upon seeing Leon beside Shen Ye, she immediately regained her composure, then gracefully bowed slightly to Leon, lifting her skirt, and said, "Hello."

"Ah!" Leon was taken aback. He wanted to return the greeting politely, but he was still holding a wine glass, so he could only nod awkwardly and say, "Hello, Miss Maid."

Then, Robert asked Shen Ye, "Shen, what brings you here?"

In fact, what she wanted to ask was whether he wanted to find her, but she was too reserved to say it aloud.

Shen Ye glanced at Lyon beside him and said, "I'm here for tourism. I've been in Roanapur for a long time and wanted to change places. I heard that the rainforest here is beautiful, so I came."

"Is that so?" Roberta, who rarely smiled, narrowed her eyes with a smile, clearly having "misunderstood" Shen Ye's meaning.

This left the maid who had followed them speechless.

As her eternal role model, this was the first time she had ever seen Robert with such an expression.

“Miss Robertt… could he be the Shen fellow you and the young master were talking about?”

Suddenly, the maid remembered the man that the young master and Robert often mentioned after they returned.

“Yes, it’s him, the one who saved the young master, our great benefactor.” Robert turned to the maid and said, “Fabiola, you must treat him well, understand?”

"Oh!" The little maid named Fabiola nodded somewhat blankly. Although she was a clever girl, she was still young and would only obey the head maid Robert.

"No, not at all, I just helped out with a little something," Shen Ye said modestly, then glanced at the basket in the maid's hand and asked, "Are you going to the market to buy food? But..."

Shen Ye glanced at the sky; it was almost noon.

"Shouldn't it usually be in the morning?"

"Our car encountered some problems on the road, which is why it's been delayed until now."
