"Eddie, reading the stock market again? You're smart; why don't you just read a book?" Rebecca asked curiously. After reading medical books for a few hours, she felt bored.

"Reading every day is very tiring, at least with this I can make money while relaxing. By the way, have you made up your mind to join my team?" Eddie smiled as he handed her a cup of coffee.

Rebecca received the coffee and drank it without much thought. After drinking, she realized that something was wrong. She slightly sulked to Eddie, "Hmph, isn't this the coffee you recently drank? Why do you give it to me, seeking an opportunity?"

"If you don't want it, then give it back to me. That coffee is an excellent herbal coffee; give it back if you don't like it." Eddie wants to take it back.

But strangely, Rebecca pulled back her hand; "I won't give you back what you gave me~."

"About your offer, it would be unfortunate for me if I couldn't be in a relationship for the next fifteen years. What if no one wants me in the future?"

Eddie was silent for a moment; a few moments later, he shook his head with a smile. "No problem, my door is always open for you. Come whenever you want."

"Hmph, I won't be fooled by your words. I still haven't thought about it; I'll let you know once I've decided."

When Eddie was having a friendly chat with Rebecca, outside Raccoon city, there was a severe accident on the railway tracks. The high-speed train suddenly stopped and became quiet and creepy.

In some places, there were some leeches seen crawling through the train. The initially clean steel carriage was filled with a strange-looking sticky liquid stain.

All passengers on the train died in an unknown attack.

The passengers of this train are not many, only fifty people or more, if totaled with waiters and security officers, then there are more than eighty people!

Marcus stood at the top of the mountain with a sponge that crept in his fingers.

"Huh, Umbrella. I won't stop here!"

When the executive's exclusive train was in an accident, the person in charge immediately sent a distress signal; he suspected that the train accident resulted from an unknown bio-weapon!

William, who was still busy researching G-Serum in the laboratory, suddenly felt agitated for an unknown reason. A moment later, a phone call came from Wesker. "Wesker, what's wrong?"

Wesker in the Umbrella building said, "The executive train had an accident, and we lost contact. The last news from the responsible engineer informs that an unknown bioweapon attacked them."

"Hmph, what's the matter? Are you going to collect new data?" William doesn't react much. This accident was no big deal to him.

"Annette was also on the train. I'll arrange a personal team to the site; prepare your mentality." Wesker said briefly.

"What! Annette on the train? Damn it, help me find out who did it; I'll make them pay!" William roared angrily, but there was a slight sense of happiness(?)

"Okay, I'll try and figure it out," Wesker replied.

After hanging up, Wesker sat down at the table and thought for a moment, after which he picked up the phone and dialed another number.

A moment later, there was a deep voice, "What's the matter?" That voice is nothing but Sergei!

"The executive's train had an accident due to an unidentified bioweapon attack. I'll send a tactical rescue team to investigate."

"Also, I'll send another elite team to the executive building to collect data. There seems to be a virus leak," Wesker said without emotion.

Sergei froze, "Well, then do as you say. Don't try any other tricks, or I'll give you my fist!"

"Understood." Wesker hung up while clenching his fists. He was furious.

Sooner or later, he will personally behead Sergei himself!

Eddie and Rebecca spent the night under the same roof; now, they live together in one apartment. All this is Jill's request; Jill asked Eddie to take care of this freshly graduated girl. Rebecca needs to be led by a 'veteran.'

*Beep!*

*Beep!*

Eddie received a message from Enrico.

"Rebecca, we have a new mission, and we need to get together."

Rebecca hurriedly finished the food on the dining table.

Both back to the office, Bravo team members have also gathered. They all look confused; while they're watching TV or dating their girlfriend, suddenly they get a call from their leader.

They feel that something terrible is going to happen!

The division captain, Enrico, said earnestly, "We have a special mission tonight; we will investigate Umbrella's train."

"According to the information provided, the train had lost contact for more than two hours. An essential researcher was on the train; the woman was Dr. Annette, an employee holding a high position at Umbrella."

"Our mission is to find and rescue her."

Eddie acts calm. An hour ago, Karen informed him that Annette had successfully landed in another city; there was also Yamata escorting her.

"Mysterious murder incidents in the Arklay area recently occurred one after another. We need to carry heavy weapons, and everyone needs to be careful. You have fifteen minutes to pack your equipment; I hope everyone is safe." Enrico ordered while saluting the team.

"Roger that!" Everyone answer with the same military salute.

While packing his equipment, Eddie showed the squad leader something that he had a request from Brian.

Enrico feels twitchy; he's very reluctant to involve unrelated people. But since the person who participated was the particular instructor, Svetlana, he accepted it.

"Okay, Eddie, you're responsible for her safety."

"No problem, leave it to me. Maybe he'll protect me when something unexpected happens; she's better than me anyway." Eddie smiled.

Enrico patted Eddie on the shoulder and said, "Don't be discouraged, son. There's nothing a man can't do. No matter how strong a woman is, a man can definitely 'defeat' her."

Enrico said with a thin smile.

Eddie knows Enrico likes to be tough, but he can sometimes joke with his friends.

Surely Eddie knew what Enrico was talking about.
