Prologue: Raccoon City

Ahem ~ Raccoon City.

It's not too big a city. There is a vast forest in the north and a rugged mountain area in the south.

In the eyes of the vast majority of residents, their time in Raccoon City is their most worthy of true love......

Although it is an industrial city, people do not care about the economy and status of the city brought by its industrial output. Because in the eyes of outsiders, these are just some data worthy of their reference.

Although there is no symbolic agricultural production here, people take pride in the vast expanses of virgin forests and natural water sources that nourish their sentiments and land. Although there is no most luxurious way to live and enjoy here, the raccoon citizens are accustomed to entertaining themselves in their work and leisure time, and are full of immersion in the comfort of the town.

Despite how inconspicuous and even backward the city is to others, the people who live there will continue to love her deeply, cherish the history and culture she created, and be happy and inspired by the stability and prosperity of the raccoon society.

Because, Raccoon City is a paradise for every resident to grow up and remember.

.......

The above is an excerpt from the draft read by the mayor of Raccoon City at the year-end meeting two years ago.

Well, in fact, it was already difficult for him to be able to read this manuscript out.

......

......

Raccoon City ...... For some reason, the city's name sounds like a gathering place for some 'ready-to-eat' vendor.

But the opposite is true, it is a small city that has nothing to do with industry, commerce, or even any way to make money.

To the north is a lazy forest with a name, while on the other side is a long mountainous area, and in the words of the speech, it is a great place for many mountaineers to explore and challenge. But in fact, this is just a painful rhetoric to carry out some tourism projects and increase the government's revenue and expenditure.

Yes, this is the kind of humble little city with no story, no passion, three o'clock every day, and the only expectation is to go to the bar for a drink after work.

At least two years ago, it was like this.

I don't know if God finally remembered this city that had never been favored before, so one day, a large corporation called Ambrera took a fancy to this place where birds don't......

No one knows what Ambrera is all about, and most people are used to calling it the umbrella company because of its red and white umbrella shape.

But what exactly is called, in fact, no one cares, people just need to know that it is very rich.

Because after this company entered and funded Raccoon City, in just two years, Raccoon City has achieved rapid development and innovation.

According to incomplete statistics, more than half of the citizens of Raccoon City work in companies associated with Ambrera.

Because of the economic miracle that Ambrera brought to Raccoon City, the mayor finally raised enough money and manpower to implement the Raccoon City transformation plan that he had painstakingly managed for many years. The plan includes a modern municipal hospital, clean and artistic streets, as well as branding and upgrading of local tourism facilities.

Anyway, this small city of only 100,000 people has never been so exciting.

……

Until one day in late September 1998.

All the memories of Raccoon City seem to have been erased at this moment.

September 27th

People finally understood that what they were experiencing was not a flu at all, but a disaster, and that the madmen who had been reported to bite people were not rabies at all, but a more terrible plague.

October 4th

In just one week, almost one-third of the citizens of Raccoon City have lost their sense of reason because of the plague that has no source at all, and those who die will get up from the ground, and the partners who are helping each other one second will become moving corpses that only know how to gnaw and devour the next, and that day, they have a name——— zombies...... Stripped of the shell of his soul, he still wanders the world.

frantically chasing and gnawing on other living flesh and life......

On October 11th, half a month after the craziest month of the virus, Raccoon City was like a hell full of devils, and it struggled, painful, and refused to take its last breath......

At noon on October 13, countless people across the country turned on their televisions and radios to watch and listen to the news. For a long time, people still couldn't believe their ears......

"Ladies and gentlemen, I have to make a heavy announcement here. An unknown virus broke out in the city of Raccoon in Malaysia not long ago, and due to the extremely high lethality rate and rapid spread of the virus, we are sure that all raccoon citizens were infected with the virus and died yesterday before the 12th of this month.

Based on the fact that China has not yet developed any effective drugs to treat or prevent the virus, after a joint ruling by the president and the House of Representatives, the military will carry out a "sterilization operation" on Raccoon City in the near future to stop the spread of the virus in the United States and even the world. ”

On the evening of October 13, many media reporters rushed to the area around Raccoon City to interview and report, and soon after conducted an in-depth media investigation into the incident. But in the end, no one really figured out what exactly the so-called "sterilization operation" meant.

...... in the early morning of October 14

In the ruined streets of Raccoon City, the rain crashed on the wreckage of a burning house. There is no one here, or rather, no one alive, otherwise anyone who sees this scene in front of them will never believe their eyes.

Because just now, the gap between the two buildings was suddenly opened...... It was like a spring that had been pulled open, abruptly extended, and a small hospital had appeared in this clearing, and before he could react, a small hospital had already appeared in this clearing.

It appeared here in an instant, with other buildings on both sides, as if the hospital had been built here when the street was designed.

"Crunch———" A doctor with a cigarette walked out, tested the size of the raindrops outside the door with his hands, and then pulled out a black notebook with no title from his pocket.

He casually flipped it open, only to see a string of changing numbers on the page.
