Resident Evil: Eddie [EN]

Eddie walked briskly toward the exit.

Uncle Mark immediately approached Eddie, he asked worriedly. "Dr. Eddie, are you all right? You look pale. Do you need help? I can give you a ride."

Eddie, who didn't want to say much, immediately nodded while expressing his gratitude. "Thanks, uncle."

Eddie was worried that he would not drive the car properly. If he insisted he might have an accident with his current condition.

Speaking of the benefits of the serum, Eddie started to feel it all over his body; he felt that something had changed. He needed to confirm this later, at least after he felt better.

Also, the fusion process was going faster than he had planned. 6 hours fusion process? He was sure it was a world record! Even Alexia needed to be frozen for more than fifteen years! 6 hours is unbelievably fast!

But just as Mark was about to get in the car with Eddie. Suddenly another guard ran up to them.

"Mr. Mark, there is a special meeting that requires you to guard." The other security guard said hastily.

"Shit, I'm sorry, Eddie, I can't take you..."

Mark apologized earnestly, after which he continued.

"Wait, I will ask Kevin for help."

After that, he shouted for a man named Kevin in the distance.

A man with long hair came up to them.

"Oh, hey Mark!"

After that, Mark began to explain his request.

"Leave it to me, don't forget to treat me with a beer after this, ok?"

Kevin is a little frivolous and easy to talk to, unlike the other guards.

"Then let's go!"

"Ok…."

Eddie nodded curtly.

Kevin Ryman, a Special Rescue Team (S.T.A.R.S.) candidate, took the test twice but failed. He failed not because of his lack of ability but because of his reckless attitude and lack of manners.

He was also Leon's instructor when Leon was a novice.

"Then take me to near the university, thank you."

Eddie spoke, after which he closed his eyes, trying to recover his drained energy.

"Ah, I didn't expect you to be such a polite person. I remember almost everyone who worked under Umbrella was serious and didn't talk much, much less would say thank you like you."

"You're really different, haha. Don't get me wrong, I don't mean anything bad; it's just that your acting quite funny." Kevin said jokingly like a long-time friend.

"Forget it; my title in the Umbrella company is nothing to be proud of. Instead, it's a burden to me." Eddie said lightly.

Maybe working under Umbrella was a great honor, but after the Outbreak happened? Umbrella will be the target of mass hatred!

If they found out Eddie had worked under Umbrella, maybe he'd be in trouble. Therefore, he wanted to be as lowkey as possible.

"Hahaha, maybe. Everyone wants to work under Umbrella, you know. Even here, you don't want to admit it; that's just what it is."

Kevin kept laughing.

"I heard you are Jill's boyfriend; she is a good girl, treat her properly," Kevin asked.

"How did you know?" Eddie found it strange; how did this news spread so quickly?

"How? The guy named Chris looks sad these few days as if he wants to cry hahaha."

"You really move fast, can win the heart of the most beautiful woman in the police force. You better be careful; if we find out you're bullying Jill, then don't blame us if we approach you with a metal tube!"

Kevin said jokingly; he couldn't stop laughing.

On the other hand, sweat started running down Eddie's forehead.

***

Ten minutes passed, they finally arrived at their destination. Raccoon City University is the largest and only school in Raccoon City. This university has subjects in Biology, Mechanics, and Medicine.

Perhaps because of the influence of Umbrella's investment, this university teaches subjects that are pretty close to what Umbrella is researching.

The reason why Eddie chose to come here is none other than because the food here is relatively cheap and also very tasty. There was a variety of fast food at this university, so Eddie wanted to try some of them; they weren't too bad either.

After Eddie got out of the car, he immediately ordered many foods. After that, he devoured all the food as if there was no tomorrow.

On the other hand, Kevin didn't leave immediately. Instead, he stayed behind while watching Eddie's behavior. "It seems that this man is quite a good man," Kevin muttered as he smoked his cigarette.

While the shop assistant who worked could only stare at how voraciously Eddie was eating all the food on the table. 'Is he a monster? I never knew humans could eat that much.' The shop assistant muttered while swallowing his saliva; he was horrified.

As for Eddie, well... He didn't really care about the gazes being directed at him; he continued to eat voraciously.

"Huh... Finally, I feel full enough now... Oh, Kevin! I'm sorry, I was starving earlier, so I forgot about my surroundings, haha."

"Come here; I'll treat you to a meal."

Eddie called Kevin while offering food generously.
