Text Chapter 37 Looking back and smiling(1/2)
"Hey, Rebecca, how are you doing lately?"
Gill, wearing a blue off-shoulder vest, hot jeans and short leather boots, was holding his phone in his left hand and chatting with her old friend Rebecca:
"Have you found a good man worth entrusting?"
Rebecca on the other end of the phone said "cut" and said with a little dissatisfaction: "Gill, why do you always ask this question! Wait, are you showing off to me?"
Jill smiled and said, "Yes, our Captain Chris has finally gotten up and has a date for me. Do you think it's, Chris?"
While speaking, Jill reached into the driver's seat and touched Chris Redfield's short hair.
"Hey, Jill, stop messing around, I'm driving!"
Obviously, Chris didn't like Jill to do such intimate actions, but it was precisely because of his opening that Rebecca on the other end of the phone also heard it.
"Oh, Jill, it's true!"
Rebecca said in surprise: "That wood of Chris actually went to date you?"
In fact, Rebecca, Jill and Chris were both members of S.T.A.R.S. (Single Police) and knew each other. The tacit relationship between Jill and Chris is not a secret among the members of S.T.A.R.S.
Rebecca said this, in fact, to bless the two friends.
"Hey, Rebecca, I heard it all."
Of course, Chris doesn't seem to like people saying he's wood.
"Okay, stop joking."
Rebecca curled her smile and said seriously: "Gill, Chris, I'm sorry, I can't find out the information about why Claire went to Elk City."
"It's okay Rebecca."
Chris said: "Just know that my sister is in Elk City, just go find her."
Rebecca said: "Gill, so Chris is on the way to Elk City with you?"
Jill replied: "It should be said that it will be here soon."
While speaking, Jill looked at the roadside sign: "Fifty kilometers away from Elk City."
"Yeah, okay."
Rebecca paused and said, "Chris, we all know your sister. She will suddenly go to Elk City. Something must have happened. In short, good luck."
"Yeah, OK."
"Goodbye, Rebecca."
After saying that, Jill hung up the phone, then looked at Chris, and said, "It seems we have to count on Xie Wa's investigation."
Chris nodded and said, "That girl Claire always likes to rush alone. Fortunately, I discovered it early this time."
Jill smiled knowingly when he heard this and said, "Yes, I don't know who Claire learned his temper."
The "who" here certainly refers to Chris.
Chris had to curl his lips, and then he slowly uttered a few words: "Sorry, Jill, our date was ruined because of my sister."
"It's okay, Chris."
Jill looked at his old partner, his eyes full of tenderness: "As long as we are together, there is nothing that cannot be solved."
"yes."
A smile appeared on Chris' face.
At this time, Jill's cell phone rang again, and Chris looked at her. After seeing the call prompt from his phone, Jill immediately said:
"It's Xie Wa, she should have found the clue."
After saying that, Jill immediately answered the phone: "Hey, Xie Wa, how about it?"
Xiewa, whose full name is Xiewa Aloma, is a black girl from Africa. Many years ago, she partnered with Chris to solve the Resident Evil incident in Africa. It was also because of that incident that Xiewa became acquainted with Chris and Jill and became friends.
Xie Wa on the other end of the phone immediately said in an uneasy tone after hearing Jill's voice:
"Gill, let me tell you a bad news. Claire is probably a lot of inside information when he goes to Elk Market this time, so let me explain it slowly."
"First of all, have you ever heard of a woman named Shirley Birkin?"
Hearing this name, Chris immediately reacted and said, "Sherry? I remember! She was a little girl brought out of the raccoon city by my sister many years ago. If I remember correctly, she later joined the Agents."
Of course, Jill knew about this and said, "What's wrong, Xie Wa? Could it be that Claire's going to Elk City has anything to do with this Shirley?"
“The key point is here.”
Xie Wa continued: "Based on the information I have received so far, Shirley seems to have discovered that there is an Umbrella Company's biochemical laboratory underground in Elk City."
Chris and Jill on the other end of the phone immediately said in unison: "What? Umbrella Company!"
Many years ago, when Chris and Jill were members of S.T.A.R.S., they solved the Western Paradise incident in the back mountain of Raccoon City and found that the incident was secretly operated by the Umbrella Company.
The Western Paradise incident is the beginning of everything.
Jill hurriedly continued, "What about?"
"According to my investigation, Shirley reported this to her superiors, but was rejected by her superiors, and she disappeared after that."
Xie Wa solemnly said: "Chris, Shirley was brought out from the raccoon city by your sister. The relationship between them must be good."
"There is no doubt that Shirley is not missing. She must have come to Elk City and plans to investigate the matter about the Umbrella Company's laboratory alone."
"I speculate that Claire may have learned about Shirley's investigation from some means, so he came to help her."
On the other end of the phone, both Chris and Jill fell into silence.
Of course Chris knew what his sister had to do. Because of this, he believed that Xie Wa's reasoning was completely correct. Maybe Claire had already set out with Shirley to investigate the biochemical laboratory of the umbrella.
Xie Wa on the other end of the phone obviously felt something and said:
"Sorry, Chris, this is the only information I can investigate."
"No, Xie Wa, we should thank you."
Jill glanced at the silent Chris and said, "Let's leave it to us next."
"So, goodbye."
"Yeah, goodbye."
After saying that, Jill hung up the phone and then said to Chris: "Do you think Claire is still in Elk City?"
The silent Chris finally spoke: "With my sister's temper, she may have set off."
"So what should we do?" Jill asked.
Chris said helplessly: "Go to Elk Market first, at least you can understand some of the situation."
"Well, yes, we're all here."
While speaking, Jill pointed to the large iron box placed in the back seat of the jeep with his thumb, and said, "Fortunately, we are ready."
Today, Chris and Jill are both special forces, so it is self-evident what will be placed in the box in the back seat of the car.
Chris looked calm and didn't say anything. He was obviously worried about his sister. Jill knew him and of course he would not disturb Chris at this time. Instead, he turned his eyes out of the car window to enjoy the surrounding scenery.
Elk City is surrounded by mountains on both sides and facing water. The scenery is really good. However, due to the direction of the jeep driving, Jill, who is sitting in the passenger seat, can see the scenery outside the window, just the North Mountain of Elk City.
In fact, the two mountains around Elk City are not high, with an altitude of less than a hundred meters. It is more suitable to say that they are hills than mountains.
Therefore, Jill could clearly see the whole picture of Beishan and its top.
However……
"Oh, my goodness!"
Jill suddenly shouted, "Chris, look at the top of the mountain there!"
"What's wrong, Jill?"
Chris also knows Jill, and she usually never bothers herself, and Jill does this, which means:
"Oh, my goodness!"
When he turned around, Chris also screamed like Jill.
Because, there is actually a foreign temple on the top of Beishan Mountain in Milu City, and its appearance is very similar to the foreign temple on the back mountain in Raccoon City back then!
"Chris."
Jill looked at his partner, and the latter agreed immediately:
"Well, I think the same as you!"
While speaking, Chris turned the steering wheel and drove the jeep into the fork road to North Mountain.
There is a saying that the horses are dead when they look at the mountain. When Chris drove a jeep to the gate of the Western Paradise, the sun had already arrived in the horizon and night was about to come.
Jill then turned around and opened the iron box placed in the back seat of the car, while also saying to Chris who had just gotten off the car:
"Chris, open the door!"
"receive."
