"Be careful!"
Eddie grabbed Jill's arm and immediately pulled her closer. Moments later, a hideous-looking dog came out of the bushes. The dog jumped to where Jill had been standing before, trying to tear the woman's body apart.
Lupo swiftly drew her gun, aiming the gun's muzzle straight at the dog's head. The hot bullet shot straight through the dog's skull and immediately killed it.
"W-what exactly is that creature?"
Jill stammered when she saw the dog's corpse; besides looking monstrous, the dog also emitted a very unpleasant stench. It was as if the dog had been dead long ago! But why is it still able to move and act savagely?
Jill's legs felt very weak, but she was still standing. If it wasn't for her regular practice, she would indeed have fallen on her knees with a terrified expression.
That's right, the dog was none other than a dog that had turned into a Zombie. The undead dog!
"I don't know either; at first glance, it looks like a monster. It also smells bad, like the smell of a dog that has been dead for several days."
Eddie shook his head. Zombie dogs are starting to appear soon; Human Zombies will also follow.
"It's hazardous in here; we better go back."
Eddie frowned, his right hand still wrapped around Jill's slender waist... It seems Jill still doesn't realize this.
Jill immediately nodded while coughing nervously. "You're right; it's hazardous here. First of all, thank you for saving me."
"It doesn't matter; after all, you are my girlfriend. Shouldn't couples help each other?" Eddie said with a laugh.
"Boyfriend? Isn't this too quick?" Jill replied with a frown. It's not that she refuses, but isn't this very hasty? They've only known each other for a few weeks.
"Of course not... The world keeps spinning; the cycle is the same. Today two people meet; the next day, they get married, hahaha."
"Anyway, let's return to my villa first. After that, I'll take you back to your apartment."
"Also, if you receive a mission, contact me immediately, ok?"
Eddie said as he looked around the Arklay mountains.
"Alright." Jill couldn't say much; she could only nod. For now, she needed to calm herself first.
The investigation turned out to be more dangerous than she had expected.
After that, Eddie, Jill, and Karen head to Raccoon City. Intending to take Jill to her apartment. After safely escorting Jill to her apartment, Eddie invites Karen to stop by a famous coffee shop.
"Shall we have some coffee first before heading back to the villa?"
Invite Eddie to Karen.
"I am responsible for protecting your safety. So I follow you wherever you go."
Karen replied professionally.
The two of them went to a coffee shop. Eddie immediately ordered two cups from the waiter, after which they went up to the second floor and sat in one of the places that had been provided.
"I think we need to take this seriously. You have seen it with your own eyes; that dog is none other than the result of the Biochemical incident!"
"It is inevitable, in the future, we will encounter such things more often."
Eddie said with a severe expression.
"I knew some information about it even before the previous incident happened. It seems that some special departments train their soldiers to deal with such monsters."
Karen nodded in understanding; this stuff? She had expected. Previously she read some quite absurd information...
"Anyway, as long as you pay me, I will continue guarding you," Karen said confidently, her expression calm. Her movements look like a mature woman who is full of intellectuals.
"As long as you are loyal to me, then I will treat you well."
"Twenty years, twenty years I pretended to be a fool. With a biochemical crisis imminent, this is the perfect time for me to shine!"
"Believe me, when it comes to money, you don't have to worry!"
Eddie laughed proudly.
Eddie's words kept ringing in Karen's mind. Karen thinks that they are pretty compatible, from nature and the demeanor... Maybe.
"So, what's your plan?" Karen's expression began to change.
"I want you to lead the Triangle Team; just take it as your own. And also pay attention to one of the team members, Bodrovski, he is a spy assigned by Umbrella."
"I'm not very good at managing Teams myself, so I hope you'll accept it; I'm sure with your skills Teamwork will improve. You will be in complete control of the Triangle Team from now on."
Eddie came up with an idea.
"Also, don't ever betray me..."
Eddie's expression grew colder.
"I hate a traitor."
Karen replied while frowning; she really hates a traitor. Of course, she wouldn't betray Eddie.
Eddie's cold expression softened, replaced by his usual warm expression.
"Anyway, sorry in advance, *cough* Isn't it the time for you to start a new family?" Eddie started playing his favorite card; he teased Karen with a wink of one eye.
Karen, who understood what Eddie meant, couldn't help but laugh softly.
"Hahaha, pay attention to your physique first, kid. You need to exercise a lot first. After that, I might consider your proposal."
"Don't underestimate me! We can try it right away if you don't believe me!"
Eddie was a little angry; how could his 'horsepower' be questioned. Looks like this woman needs to be taught not to play with fire!
