Eddie's identity is quite unique; as long as the tactical team is not on a special mission, he's allowed to relax at home whenever he likes.

And that's precisely what he's doing right now. Relax while watching tv.

But suddenly a phone rang out from his pocket.

*Beep!*

*Beep!*

*Beep!*

"Hello, did you miss me already?" Eddie answered in a tempting tone.

"Huh, keep dreaming. Is this how you answer a friend's call?" Annette said casually, pretending to forget the 'fun' events that had previously taken place in the lab.

"Haha, of course not. Is there anything you want? I know you'll only call me when you need something significant." Eddie said as he thought of something that made him a big smile.

Annette, who heard the emphasis of the word 'something,' immediately knew what the pervert was thinking. It makes her a little happy... I mean mad!

If it wasn't for her gratitude for the T-Serum that she had been given, maybe she had pointed a gun at Eddie's crotch... Maybe.

'If I did then-' Suddenly, Annette erases that intention. It would be a pity if that 'thing' went erased.

"Umbrella is about to subjugate one of the talented researchers of Tricell's company."

Annette paused, after which she continued, "Umbrella intends to start a cooperation project and let me chat with the prospective researchers."

"Ehh... So what does this have to do with me?" Eddie seems to be wondering.

"I'd like to invite you to attend the seminar. Do you have time?" Annette asked with an expression of hope. Somehow she thinks she'd rather live with Eddie than William.

Of course, it's purely because of the same profession; there's no other reason! For sure...

"Hmm? So who will help William in his G-Serum research?" Eddie is getting confused; Annette's relationship with William seems to have cracked since his appearance in the woman's life.

"Daniel Fabron, he used to have a pretty good relationship with William. This time William asked him to help in his G-Serum research."

"That man no longer needs me." Annette's voice sounded icy.

"Why would he prefer an outsider to help him instead of you?" Eddie raised his eyebrows.

"Because he's an asshole who killed my friend's relatives. I no longer want to discuss this topic!"

"So, are you coming?" Annette became increasingly upset when the topic of William was raised; somehow, this made her feel very angry.

"Of course, send me the location and time. I'll go there in time." Surely Eddie agrees.

Eddie felt very interested; Tricell company has a strong background and advanced technology that almost equals Umbrella. In this world, maybe Tricell is the most mysterious one. It's like there's never been any word from the company.

"The seminars will be held two days from now."

Annette answered Eddie's question.

"By the way, I want to ask you something. I'll talk about it when the time comes." After saying that, Annette immediately hung up.

She stared at William's lab as she frowned.

William became increasingly paranoid with his research. He doesn't even trust his own wife.

When her husband said she was no longer needed in this project, she immediately felt distraught!

As a person with the same dedication and liking as William, she wasn't happy when she was suddenly expelled from this project.

"Tch-"

Annette squeaked her tongue. Her dislike for William grew.

"It seems that all your 'friends' are women."

Svetlana walked behind Eddie as she said in astonishment.

Eddie hangs up and turns to Svetlana with a smile. "It's not that I want my friends all women. It's just that... Almost all the geniuses I meet are a woman, just like you; what other choices can I make?"

Eddie replied, shrugging his shoulders.

Hearing Eddie's answer, Svetlana smiled. She clearly knew that it was a statement of praise. Being the woman that also included, of course, Svetlana felt happy.

S.T.A.R.S. Training center.

The boulder puncher, Chris, was seen training with his gun continuously.

After a mission to the Arklay forest to explore Al Lester's abandoned Hospital, he felt that his shooting and combat skills should be fixed immediately.

In a narrow environment, fighting monsters requires excellent combat skills; shooting skills are the key to saving lives if the domain is broad. Both skills are critical!

Eddie walks into the training ground in leisurely steps; he comes here to pick up his girlfriend, Jill Valentine.

"Hey Chris, we're taking a long day off soon. Do you have any plans for your vacation yet?"

After hanging out together long enough, his hot relationship with Chris has long subsided. Chris' every complaint had also melted away.

"No, I'll try to find a part-time job. I need to help my sister pay her tuition."

Chris stopped his training; his body was soaked in sweat.

"Oh, you have a sister? Why haven't I heard of her? Is she an elementary school student?" Eddie threw a bottle of mineral water at Chris.

"No, she's a college student, her name is Claire. I plan to train her with a firearm when I have time."

Chris tells Eddie with pride; his smile is huge when talking about his sister.
