Chapter 252 Dr. Asford's determination
Li Wei and his team escorted a group of people back to the center of Raccoon City...
I don’t know if Nick Forre’s bombing was angering God. After the huge explosion, lightning and thunder suddenly began to rise above Raccoon City, and heavy rain started.
The soybean-sized raindrops fell to the ground with black pollutants, and the entire raccoon city seemed to be painted with a slump of blue-black color by a crappy artist.
Back to Alvin, who was in Dr. Asford's house, sat on the sofa and looked back at the battle scenes inside the umbrella company.
Dr. Isaac's mutation made him feel a little terrifying. The strength of the virus, the huge power and tenacious vitality of the mutant, left a very deep impression on Li Wei.
Gisel made two simple ice packs and walked over and tied them to Levi's shoulders to help him relieve the pain caused by dislocating his arm.
Looking at the camera replay, Giselle frowned and said, "Why do anyone want this kind of thing? They don't seem sane at all."
Li Wei closed the camera, shook her head and said, "What those big guys wanted at the beginning was probably the 'tracker', and that thing was really amazing.
The virus that created the big monster was probably the bargaining chip that Dr. Isaac prepared for himself, but it was obvious that he chose an inappropriate 'buyer', and he didn't care about him, just needing viruses."
As he said that, Li Wei glanced at Dr. Asford, who was sitting in a wheelchair and watching the heavy rain outside the window, and said, "Scientific researchers always fantasize that all big bosses can tolerate their imaginations and support their ideals.
But in the final analysis, investment is to make profits. If people are more important, they should naturally treat people well. If the products have met their interests, then what is the need for people to exist?
Compared to viruses that are no longer secret, viruses can obviously meet the needs of some people.”
Gisel was shocked and said, "Why is the virus no longer a secret?"
"Because the raccoon city is full of zombies, as long as you get a little bit of biological tissue and body fluids, you can inversely deduce the components of the virus."
Dr. Asford, who had been watching the rain, pushed the wheelchair and turned to Levi, and said with a bitter expression: "I didn't expect things to turn out like this. I originally hoped to use Osborne Group to reveal the fact that the umbrella wanted to weaponize the virus, but now it seems that Osborne Group will not be interested in me anymore.
Boss, what do you want me to die?"
Li Wei slapped Giselle on his thigh when he was confused and shook his head and said, "Dr. means that although he is the inventor of the virus, now that there are viruses everywhere, Osborne Group probably won't take public opinion risks for him.
Osborne Group also has a biochemical weapons business. It took Dr. Asford to take in, and it was just to make itself a target."
Gisel nodded suddenly when she heard this, but she didn't know that it was Li Wei's previous threat at work.
Levi would not kill Dr. Asford, nor would he vent his anger, but if Dr. Asford chose Osborne Group, he would definitely make Osborne Group on TV.
This is an early warning and a warning that any research that is as dangerous as the virus should be subject to the strictest supervision.
Dr. Asford learned about Levi's thoughts through Irving, so he surrendered because he knew what the Osborne Group would choose in the face of such a situation.
And Levi seems to be a good boss, and Dr. Asford feels that he may receive Levi's funding.
He actually didn't want much. After his daughter had successfully stood up, he just wanted himself and his students to get rid of the disease and go through his life with dignity.
As long as he is "dead", he can give everyone an explanation and everything can be very simple.
Looking at Dr. Asford's calm expression, Levi smiled and pointed to Mobias standing in the distant corner, saying, "The observation group has reached the periphery of Raccoon City, and they will enter Raccoon City tomorrow.
I have contacted the so-called Resident Evil Investigation Team, and they will come here tomorrow, and Osborne will probably come with you...
How to 'dead' depends on you. I promise to arrange a decent 'funeral' for you."
After hearing this, Dr. Asford nodded slightly and said, "Then you will see my 'corpse' tomorrow. Remember not to let me bury it underground for too long."
Levi reached an agreement with Dr. Asford, he handed the camera in his hand to Giselle and said with a smile: "Send the contents to the intelligence center and ask them to edit the most exciting special and post it online.
After those big names arrive tomorrow, it is still a question whether the vocal power of Raccoon City TV can be kept.
We have to occupy the high point of public opinion in advance and cannot give them any chance to discredit or take advantage of my traffic."
After hearing this, Gisel smiled and kissed Levi on the cheek, saying, "I didn't expect you to care so much about your image. Are you so anxious to become famous?"
Levi reached out and picked up Giselle and put it on his legs. After hugging her waist for a few times, he smiled and said, "'Being famous' is also a kind of protection. Many ordinary people are prone to troubles, but celebrities just can't touch them.
When I can hear 1,000 people, the police need to be polite to me.
When I can hear 10,000 people, anyone who tries to hurt me needs to think about it.
When I can hear 100,000, 1 million, or 10 million people, those "big people" have to be careful with me.
I chose the 'nest' myself. When everyone thinks that the 'nest' should lurk in the dark, I just don't want to.
I do things upright and openly, I will make mistakes and be willing to pay the price for mistakes, but I cannot tolerate myself being manipulated.
My energy will definitely not get all the right to speak in public opinion, but we can occupy the high point as long as we work hard, so that when those people weigh the trade-offs, they will involuntarily feel that it will be very expensive to manipulate and guide public opinion to use me, or even use public opinion to attack me.
As long as I let them hesitate when weighing the trade-offs, the ‘nest’ will gain limited freedom.”
As he said that, Li Wei looked at the rainy night outside the window, he put his chin on Giselle's shoulder with a little tiredness and said, "You are all supporting me, I can't let you down."
Raccoon market is just the beginning, we cannot retreat at all, and we cannot let them see a trace of weakness."
Giselle could feel Levi's mental fatigue. She believed that she knew this man and knew that everything at the moment was not what he expected at the beginning.
Holding Li Wei's neck, he let him smell the bath fluid on his body. Giselle stood up and shook the camera, and said with a smile: "I'll send the things to the intelligence center. It's only 3 o'clock now, and there are still several hours before dawn. Do you want to come to me to dispose of gifts?"
Li Wei whistled after hearing this, nodded and said, "Do you need me to find a candle or something? It takes a little ambiguous atmosphere to remove the gift..."
Just as Li Wei stood up and wanted to say something, the sound of the engine suddenly sounded outside the door.
The three Arce sisters who were parked under the porch suddenly deformed, and their weapons pointed at the roof of the opposite house.
At the same time, a black car turned in from the other end of the street and rushed over quickly and parked in the driveway at the door of the house.
Brixton lurking on the opposite roof, saw Owen pulling out of the car with a embarrassed look on Heidi.
He glanced at the three Arce sisters who were extremely sci-fi-shaped. Before the people inside the house walked out, they quickly left there and disappeared into the darkness.
However, when Brixton left, he did not find a person watching him on the roof of a building outside the street.
James Barnes, who was in a house, watched Brixton leave through a telescope.
This "Winter Soldier" who should have had the same camp as Brixton's eyes changed from the numbness before, and seemed deep and melancholy.
The big explosion did not kill the "Winter Soldier", but it allowed him to regain his consciousness.
James Barnes, who was repeatedly brainwashed, did not have the idea of countering the "Adian Organization". He just wanted to completely get rid of control and do something to relieve his guilt.
After confirming that Brixton left, Barnes put down the children's telescope in his hand, turned to look at a young couple and several children, and said, "We'll spend the night here, and I'll take you to a shelter in the city center tomorrow."
The young husband hugged his wife and looked at Barnes with a cold look. He hesitated for a moment and said, "Thank you~"
A little girl in pajamas, about two years old, walked to Barnes with a keychain with Winnie the Pooh, looked at him with naive eyes and said, "Can you take me to find my mother? She said she wanted to play hide-and-seek with me, but she never came to find me.
Is mom sick too? I miss my mom..."
Barnes glanced at the young woman who made a depressing cry and made her put away her crying.
Thinking of the female zombie downstairs blocking the door, Barnes squatted on the ground and took the little girl's gift. He pinched the bear in his hand, then stuffed it into his arms, and said, "I am a mercenary. I have charged you. I will send you to a safe place tomorrow and come here to find your mother."
After hearing this, the little girl finally smiled. She held Barnes's iron arm and stuffed her little hand into the iron hand that looked a little scary, and said seriously: "I believe you~"
The little girl's naive language seemed to hit Barnes in the head with a sledgehammer. He sat heavily on the ground with his hands holding his chaotic head. He did the wrong things in his life, and the person he killed was spinning in his mind like a lantern.
When Barnes wanted to let out a roar in pain, his little hands touched his forehead...
“Are you feeling bad?
When I feel uncomfortable, my mother always holds me. You are too big and I can't hold you..."
Barnes didn't know what was wrong. This tough guy who had experienced countless battles during World War II could not stop his tears. Finally, he hugged the little girl and let out a silent cry that was extremely suppressed.
