Resident Evil: Eddie

Chapter 33

Eddie and Suzuki kept walking until they came to a circus.

This entertainment venue is a newly opened place in Raccoon City; the owner plans to do a short business in this very prosperous city.

Eddie could only sigh in his heart. If there were no Outbreak events in the future, this place would generate tremendous profits. It's a shame that an Outbreak is imminent; the owners of this place will lose money and lose their lives!

By his side, Yoko Suzuki followed Eddie quietly, Eddie guiding the girl towards a cafe that happened to be set up in that place.

"Ok, it should be safe here."

Eddie looked to his left and right while trying to confirm the place's safety.

After that, he looked at Suzuki. He was about to tell her the truth that she had forgotten for so long.

"I'll say something you may have forgotten."

"First of all, my name is Eddie; I work at Umbrella."

"I have read a report containing your name."

"It appears you are a former employee at the large Umbrella company I work for."

Eddie continued.

"Because you know what not to know while working under Umbrella. So the leader did something to you, in short, your memory has been erased, after that exiled you out of Raccoon City."

Eddie said with a severe expression.

Of course, he made things up where he read a report about 'Yoko Suzuki.' After all, from the start, he knew about this girl's background, so a bit of a lie wouldn't hurt...

"Heh? What are you talking about?"

Suzuki asked with a confused expression, but she remained calm.

"Your memory has been erased by the Umbrella staff."

"Oh, so it turned out to be so."

Suzuki responded calmly, but a hint of concern appeared on her face.

She was glad that she finally found out what really happened to her; from a long time ago, she did feel that something important had been missing from her. But she didn't know what it was, but after a man named Eddie explained the truth, suddenly some of those missing memories flashed through her brain.

As for why she trusted this unknown man so quickly, she didn't know herself, perhaps because of her nature? Intuition... Maybe?

Eddie gave the girl a strange look; could the other party show a little reaction? Why is she so calm? Does that girl always act like this?

Many questions kept popping up in Eddie's head.

The woman thought for a moment, after which her hand reached into her backpack. A few moments later, she took out a bottle of medicine; she said, "I believe your story, as my gratitude. Here, I gave you the sedative that I had previously made."

"The problem you mentioned earlier should be curable with this medicine; it's just that it took quite a while to completely heal. It must be of use to you."

Suzuki handed over the medicine with a faint smile.

"Is this made with the traditional way?" Eddie took the vial containing the medicine while observing what was inside.

"Yes. I concocted it using the traditional principle, then modified it."

"I see..." Eddie nodded in understanding.

"Anyway, thank you for giving me this medicine."

"Since you've already helped solve my problem, how about I help you solve yours? Maybe trying to make you remember something you've forgotten?"

Eddie suggested the idea. Since the other party was kind to him, of course, he had to repay her equally. He was not an ungrateful person.

Hearing Eddie's suggestion, Suzuki immediately nodded while extending her hand. "Then Deal, let's work together from now on."

Eddie shook Suzuki's hand. "Of course."

"Then let's exchange phone numbers; if you want to ask something or just provide some info, you can contact me."

"I'm currently living at the University."

The two immediately exchanged phone numbers. Suzuki smiled; it seems she has made a new friend in this city.

***

Sitting in a VIP cafe room not far from Eddie's.

A person with fashionable glasses is seen; the woman is wearing an oversized jacket covering the tight red cheongsam she's wearing.

Her hair is short and black, her aura is very calm, and she looks confident. Which made her look more seductive.

That woman is none other than Ada Wong!

At first, she came to this cafe to calm herself down, drinking coffee while trying to contemplate the plans she would make in the future.

But it turned out that fate had blessed her, unexpectedly a target she had planned to appear in the cafe.

Eddie Cai is a high-ranking person recently hired by Umbrella. So in a sense, she and the man can be a future team.

"Interesting... Now, what should I do?" Ada Wong muttered with a very charming smile. After that, she thought, "Since John is dead, then I have to use another man for this plan... Too bad John died too quick; he died before my mission was even done."

***

After parting with Yoko Suzuki, Eddie wanted to go back to Jill's apartment to rest; today was a very tiring day.

On the other hand, he had no idea that his conversation with Suzuki had been overheard by Ada Wong.

Eddie would not hesitate to recruit Ada Wong immediately if he knew about this.

Since the attack he had on Annette, his anger and bloodlust had subsided quite a bit.

Eddie swallowed the two pills simultaneously, taking out two pill tablets from the medicine bottle that Suzuki had given him. There was no drowsiness or other discomfort after consuming it; in fact, his mind became calmer.

Eddie began to understand how to deal with the side effects of the Serum he had been using.

There are at least two ways to treat this: taking medicine and physical therapy; the other is spiritual healing, which he has not yet tried.

Perhaps meditation can help him control his emotions and anger.

Outside Jill's apartment, Eddie meets his girlfriend, who has just returned from heavy training.

It's ten o'clock at night.

Watching Eddie return to his apartment, Jill had gotten used to this man's presence. Since they had become lovers, living under one roof was not unusual.

Of course, Jill would accept Eddie into her apartment because she liked Eddie's character. If not, maybe she had kicked him out long ago.

***

In the distance, Ada Wong followed Eddie secretly, trying to get some information that might be useful in her quest to seduce the man.

However, something else suddenly happened; Ada immediately hid behind a wall. She took her cell phone while looking for some information.

It turned out that there was a blonde woman with short hair sitting on a park bench.

It seems Ada knows the woman's true identity.
