As Raccoon City changes with each passing day, the originally peaceful and quiet city gradually becomes restless again.

A large number of migrant workers have poured into Raccoon City because there is an umbrella company here. The umbrella company promises to provide stable jobs and basic housing to all migrant workers who have passed the identity review and have no bad habits.

Most of these migrant workers are just ordinary people who have a good yearning for life, but there are also some people with ulterior motives among them.

The most outrageous thing is that on the sixth day after the gun was recovered, the Raccoon City Police Department uncovered a major gun smuggling case.

The smugglers sold the guns to the residents of Raccoon City at 1.2 times the price, and then the residents took the guns to the hand-in point and earned 0.3 of the price difference.

When Duncan knew these things, he felt completely stupid, and then conveyed his message to the police station that this kind of behavior must be severely punished.

Those who made the difference were deprived of education, medical care, and free water and electricity benefits. The gun dealers asked the umbrella lawyers to fight for a longer sentence.

After several consecutive blows with the stick, the cautious people became more at ease.

Checkpoints have also become more careful in reviewing people's identities, but no matter how careful they are, they can't stop many interested people, let alone spies who have entered the protective umbrella a long time ago.

…

In a corner of the cafeteria of the Umbrella Building, a man with meticulous hair and a mustache on his upper lip lowered his head to eat silently. His eyes hidden behind black-rimmed glasses occasionally glanced at the staff eating in other seats, and he couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

"William, can I sit here?" Suddenly a young woman with blond hair sat in front of him holding a dinner plate.

William looked up and saw a smiling face that was not stunning, but very attractive. He stopped chewing food in his mouth, nodded and said vaguely: "Of course, there is no one here."

After hearing this, the woman put down her dinner plate and sat generously across from William. When she saw that his eyes seemed to be a little dodgey, or he was looking at the people around him eating, she also looked around and sighed: "It's pretty good now."

It's nice, isn't it? I can get a job at Umbrella. Although I am busier than before, I won't be bored."

"...Well, it's pretty good." William lowered his head and continued to eat mashed potatoes, with a lukewarm attitude, because his personality was that of a good old man who was unsociable and taciturn.

The woman did not lose her patience because of William's attitude. She supported her chin with one hand and poked the salad on the plate with a fork with the other hand, staring unblinkingly at William who was lowering his head to eat.

That scorching gaze made even the highly professional William feel a little numb. When he picked up the water glass to drink, he glanced at the other side and happened to meet the smiling eyes.

"Cough...cough! Sorry..."

Somewhat embarrassed, he wiped the water stains on his face with a napkin. After all, William couldn't resist the look and asked stiffly: "Is there anything Janice needs my help with?"

I kept praying in my heart: Never be a trouble, never be a trouble!

Janice smiled and said: "Would you like to attend the opening of the new century in the downtown square in the evening? I heard that there will be the world's first holographic billboard there, and there will also be many technological exhibits to see. You should like it, right?"

"

The opening event of the new century is the Umbrella Company's response to the outside world. It is also a public exhibition and a grand event to provide information to the public.

In the downtown commercial plaza, Umbrella Company will present the company's future core products to open everyone's eyes. Among the exhibits that have been confirmed is a giant holographic billboard that projects a height of fifteen meters.

In the future, the giant holographic billboard will also become a landmark of the city, similar to the billboard in New York's Times Square, and will become a check-in point for future tourists.

William's heart moved. He wanted to go see the opening event of the new era, but he had a reason why he couldn't go.

After several struggles, William avoided Janice's expectant eyes and said stiffly: "Sorry, I have something to do and I can't go tonight..."

After saying the rejection, even without looking at Janice's expression, he could feel the deep sense of loss, and his heart could not help but twitch painfully.

"That's such a pity..." Janice expressed her understanding, but it made William feel even more uncomfortable.

After hurriedly finishing his lunch, William fled the canteen.

Due to the evening exhibition, the umbrella company can get off work early today, giving employees enough time.

When William returned home, he lay on the bed for a while. It was not until almost dusk that his mood slowly calmed down.

He got up from the bed with bloodshot eyes. The past few years of working at the umbrella company had almost worn away his excellent professional qualities.

Obviously he wouldn't be so sentimental in the past, and he would take action whenever he had the chance.

They had already planned to wash their hands and go back to their hometown after finishing the last order, but when they really wanted to take action, they encountered a big crisis in their lives.

William was in the bathroom, silently looking at the man in the mirror.

To be honest, he is not young anymore. He is 32 years old, and there are already many rough marks on his face. Even if he has taken care of himself, his skin has gradually become dull. This has strengthened his determination to wash his hands after finishing this order.

.

"After tonight, take the money and go back to Ruidian! I believe you can do it!"

After completing his self-encouragement, William entered the room, put on new clothes, took his computer and information storage, and quietly waited for the opening event in the evening.

The warm-up activities before the opening ceremony started as scheduled, and residents across the city were deeply attracted by it.

William opened his eyes, took the guy eating in the windbreaker, and headed towards the closed Umbrella Company building.

He deliberately took a small path to avoid all surveillance.

The Umbrella Building is located in the center of Raccoon City. William tried his best to avoid the crowds, but he still couldn't avoid passing by the central square.

Having a great interest in technological electronic products, he looked curiously at the square, where the neon lights made the crowd below sparkle.

Everyone seemed to have a smile, and he saw life in these pictures.

The opening event hasn't started yet, so I haven't been able to see those high-tech products.

It wasn't until he crossed the square from the edge that he recovered from the seemingly ordinary scene, and then sneaked into the Umbrella Building with a depressed mood.

Using his identity and the excuse that he had left something behind, he sneaked into the building and naturally took the elevator to the floor where he worked.

Purchasing Department.

William worked in the purchasing department, and with five years of service, he was not suspected even if he was discovered by the person on duty when he returned to the company.

At a time when the whole city was paying attention to the opening of the new century, his actions became particularly smooth.

Opening the door of the purchasing department's office area, William came to sit down at his workstation by the window and took out the microcomputer hidden under his windbreaker.
