Resident Evil: Sign in and get super powers

Chapter 50 Chaos is coming, lumberjack, activate the check-in airport

Chu Xuan quickly returned to the room.

Alice had already gotten up and was watching the news on TV.

"See that red sky behind me? That's Raccoon City after the army launched missiles. Thick smoke billows, visible for ten miles..."

A reporter was pointing into the distance while reporting.

The TV news showed Raccoon City burning and billowing with smoke from a distance at night.

There is a blocked fence in front and a large number of onlookers behind.

Alice casually switched to another radio station.

"The missile that launched the attack on Raccoon City is believed to be an atomic bomb. If this is true, then no one in this city of 10 people will survive..."

Alice changed the radio station again.

"Mr. President, is there any connection between Umbrella Corporation and this accident?"

"Does the missile launch have anything to do with them?"

"Can you explain it clearly?"

……

Reporters asked questions frantically.

However, the president simply said he had no comment and stepped down.

"You're back. Where did you go in such a hurry?"

Alice saw Chu Xuan coming back, turned off the TV and asked.

"nothing."

Chu Xuan didn't know how to answer Alice's question. Should he tell her that he had taken advantage of her last night? He couldn't bring himself to say that.

Until now, he couldn't be 100% sure that the woman last night was Jill, and it was even more unclear.

Following the principle of less trouble is worse than more, Chu Xuan finally chose to put the matter aside for the time being and wait until he met Jill in the future to ask about the situation.

"By the way, you used to be the security captain of Umbrella Corporation. Do you know where the nearest Umbrella base is?"

Chu Xuan thought of Lane and asked.

"The nearest base... should be Harvardville Industrial City! But now that something big has happened, I wonder if they will relocate her."

Alice thought for a moment and spoke.

There was some worry in his voice as he spoke.

After all, Lane was captured a few days ago, and Raccoon City had not fallen at that time.

Now that such a big thing has happened, Umbrella will definitely go into a low-key dormant period. It is hard to say whether Lane will still be there at this time.

"Let's go check it out first! Havverville Industrial City? I hope she's still there."

Chu Xuan had no choice but to take things one step at a time.

It just so happens that Jill and the others left in that direction. Maybe I can find her there and ask her about what happened last night.

The next day, the two checked out of the hotel and found a ride directly to Haverville Industrial City.

Haverville Industrial City is not too far from Raccoon City, but it is in another direction. Now that Raccoon City has been bombed, you need to take a big detour to get there. Apart from some trouble, there is no other impact.

We continued on our way and finally arrived at Haverville Industrial City in the evening.

When they arrived in the city, the driver dropped Chu Xuan and Alice off at an intersection because the route was no longer on their way.

Although this city has only 10 permanent residents, it is not small.

"Looking for one person in such a vast sea of people is like looking for a needle in a haystack. How can one find one?"

Looking at this huge city, Chu Xuan thought of Jill and couldn't help but sigh.

"Don't worry. Although I manage the security of the Hive, I also know the location of the base here. She wasn't captured too long ago, so she's probably still there."

Alice was relieved to hear this.

I didn’t expect that Chu Xuan actually cared so much about Lane. Chu Xuan is indeed a man of affection and righteousness!

Alice felt somewhat relieved.

Of course, if she knew that the person Chu Xuan was talking about was Jill, I wonder if she would still be able to praise him.

The two chose a hotel to stay and rested for a while before setting off.

However, when they arrived at the Umbrella Medical Research Institute, they were stunned because the place was already deserted.

Not to mention Dr. Isaac, there wasn't even a single person in sight.

"That doesn't make sense! How could there be no one here?"

Alice looked confused.

This is Umbrella's base closest to Raccoon City. Raccoon City no longer exists. Where else can Lane go except to transfer here?

And the umbrella moved too quickly. Did they know they were coming?

But Kane is dead, and the people from Umbrella should not know that they are alive. Why would they suddenly close the research institute?

"Maybe something happened!"

Chu Xuan didn't understand either and guessed.

"possible."

Alice nodded.

The two left the Umbrella Medical Research Institute and quickly returned to the hotel.

Chu Xuan went out to buy some dinner. As soon as he entered the door, Alice hurriedly called out, "Hurry up and watch the news."

"news?"

Chu Xuan looked puzzled upon hearing this and turned to look at the TV screen.

"There's new coverage of the Raccoon City incident. This station has obtained horrifying footage captured by Taylor of Raccoon City Channel 7."

"The Umbrella Corporation developed the T-virus, which leaked and infected the entire city. The Umbrella Corporation killed a large number of innocent civilians."

……

The footage broadcast on the news was exactly what Terry Morales had recorded with a video camera.

Revealed everything that happened in Raccoon City.

At this moment, Chu Xuan finally understood why there was no one in Umbrella's research institute. He was afraid that after this news, public opinion across the country would be in an uproar, and Umbrella Corporation would probably have to go underground.

It will be difficult to find Dr. Isaac again.

"I didn't expect them to act so quickly and actually send the video directly to the TV station. It looks like the Umbrella Corporation is doomed."

Alice exclaimed in surprise as she watched the news broadcast.

No matter how big a company is, it will be impossible to recover in the face of overwhelming national public opinion.

"I'm afraid it's not that simple."

Chu Xuan shook his head.

The Umbrella Corporation is so powerful that it can even pull out nuclear bombs. He would never believe that there is no official protection.

I'm afraid this matter will be suppressed soon.

Sure enough, after a few days the plot took another turn.

The news tone has taken a 180-degree turn. Yesterday, radio host Terry Morales was a hero who exposed the umbrella of evil, but today she has suddenly become a villain.

Major news stations have changed their tune.

"New evidence overturns earlier reports."

"Obviously, it was just a prank."

"The false image has been completely disproven."

"Making fun of the Raccoon City tragedy is just too much."

"According to official sources, the real cause was a major accident at the nuclear power plant reactor. This accident was the largest nuclear leak since Chernobyl."

"The governor thanked Umbrella Corporation for its swift handling of the aftermath."

"The prank's host, Terri Morales, has been detained by police for questioning."

"Gill, Carlos, and others impersonated police officers and broke into the police station, kidnapping Terry Morales. They have not been found since then. The police are fully engaged in a manhunt. Any citizens who may have spotted them are requested to report them."

……

"Come on, this is even more troublesome."

Chu Xuan felt helpless watching the news report. He had thought of finding Jill to find out what happened, but it turned out that they had all become wanted criminals and there was no place to find them.

Although there were people above helping to suppress the situation and public opinion was indeed reversed, investors were not stupid. Regardless of whether the Umbrella Corporation was experimenting with the T-virus, the disappearance of Raccoon City was an undeniable fact.

Overnight, Umbrella Corporation's stock price plummeted, and panicked citizens began to doubt the relationship between the government and Umbrella Corporation.

Then a dramatic scene happened.

The Americans were worried about the impact on the country's reputation, so they directly shifted all the blame to Umbrella Corporation. As a result, Umbrella Corporation's stock price plummeted.

In order to survive, many employees within the Umbrella Corporation began selling the virus on the black market.

This is complete chaos.

The number of biological and chemical attacks has increased in various places.

When some people fall, others rise. A pharmaceutical company called Wellfarm came into being. With the support of Senator Davis, it established a research center in the industrial city of Haverville.

Time passed, and several years went by in the blink of an eye.

Jill was not found, and there was no news about Lane at all.

Chu Xuan's system also seemed to be silent and did not sound again.

Chu Xuan could only find a temporary job as a lumberjack in the mountains on the edge of the city, a job that did not require any ID and was not popular among the people. With a strong constitution, he could cut wood at an incredible speed, and with beautiful women accompanying him every night, his life was pretty comfortable.

Until that day, the news reported that Senator Davis, special advisor to Willfarma, was coming to Haverville Industrial City. The airport was directly surrounded by people, and a large number of demonstrators gathered at the airport gate with signs protesting.

The system that had not responded to Chu Xuan for many years finally sounded in Chu Xuan's mind again.

[Ding Dong! A biohazard outbreak has been detected, and the check-in location has been activated.]

【Check-in location: Airport.】

[Successful sign-in will give you a chance to win a prize. Please sign in at the airport within 24 hours. If you fail to do so, you will lose the chance to sign in.]

"Finally I can sign in again."

When Chu Xuan heard the system prompt sound, his body suddenly shook and his eyes flashed with brilliance.

After so many years, I thought this system was scrapped, but I didn't expect it to be activated again.

Chu Xuan threw away his axe and prepared to go down the mountain.

"Hey! Brother, we haven't finished chopping wood for today! Where are you going? Your boss will dock your salary."

The worker who was cutting wood with Chu Xuan saw Chu Xuan was about to leave and hurriedly shouted.

"You can button it if you want, I'm done with it."

Chu Xuan threw down a sentence and ran straight towards his dilapidated pickup truck.

You can sign in to become stronger, but why chop down trees? I quit.
