Chapter 51: The Past of Maple Town

"Damn, I hate this kind of shit weather. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info”

Looking at the still gray sky and the drizzle that didn't stop at all, Wen Qing couldn't help but feel irritable, and the clothes that had finally dried out were about to get wet again.

"Just get used to it," Hank patted him on the shoulder, "and you'll know how comfortable it is when you kid tries the feeling of crawling out of the mud." ”

"I'd rather not try."

After muttering a word, Wen Qing took the lead and walked out into the street, and a few drops of bean-sized droplets falling from the eaves made a soft sound on his helmet.

"If you follow the main road of the town, you should be able to find a hospital or a police station, right?" If the police station in this place is built in a remote place like the one he encountered in the city, then he really has no choice but to hehe.

"I'll clear the way." The newcomer Leopard took the small turret on his waist and walked to the front of the line with his left hand, Wen Qing didn't have any opinion on this, anyway, they were all humanoid bugs, and whoever opened the way in front was the same.

With that, the group began to move along the unusually wide road in front of the hotel.

Leopard Pose opened the way at the front, M4A1 and the newcomer Lwmmg were on the left and right flanks, and Hank walked at the back of the line, just protecting Wen Qing and MK23, the little Lori in the middle.

Even Lori took out her prototype pistol and clinged to Wen Qing's side, looking like she was facing a great enemy.

"I said, do you need that?" The corners of Wen Qing's mouth twitched, it's a good thing to be careful, but this is too much, right?

"No amount of caution can be overstated until we are completely sure that there are no hostile personnel here, and the safety of the commander is paramount." Lori MK23 said with a straight face.

"I also have the ability to protect myself, okay?" Wen Qing shrugged helplessly, although it was quite eye-catching to be protected by so many girls, but as a man, especially a man with some machismo, this situation made him very uncomfortable.

"Why don't we switch places." Hank, who was at the back, was suddenly upset, "After you come out of the hall, I will be escorted when I go in." ”

"Yes, but your two tanks will be mine."

“fuckyou!” Listening to Hank's angry scolding like being caught in pigtails, Wen Qing suddenly felt a burst of relief, it turned out that the feeling of holding someone's handle was so cool.

Of course, he was just joking, and Hank also understood that the conversation between the two was purely trying to find something to do out of boredom.

I have to say that the economic development of this Maple Leaf Town is really good, and the roadside is full of all kinds of brand-name stores, hotels and luxuriously decorated restaurants.

"Is this really just a hot spring?" A wave of doubt rose in Wen Qing's heart, no matter what he thought, it was impossible for a single hot spring to drive the economy of the entire town like this.

"Hank, did any of the reports you've read about the Silent Hill Project mention about this town?"

Wen Qing glanced at the closed storefronts on the street, and the doubts in his heart became stronger and stronger.

"Yes, yes, but not much, just a few words." Hearing Wen Qing suddenly ask this question, Hank was suddenly a little puzzled, "What, is there anything abnormal in your place?" ”

"How much income do you think a hot spring can bring here?" Can you support the whole town to become what it is now? ”

"Of course not," Hank shrugged, "I see, you're wondering why this place is so bustling, right?" ”

Wen Qing nodded, if he didn't figure this issue out, he would always have a feeling of uneasiness in his heart.

"It's just a matter of keeping your mouth shut, you don't understand this." Hank calmly explained, "Like Raccoon City, Ambrera and Blackwatch are in a relationship with the mayor of the town, and the two companies are funding the town's construction, and the town is covering up their experiments. ”

"Aren't the people here afraid that the town will become a second Raccoon City?" Wen Qing was surprised.

"Them?" Hank snorted coldly, "You think this kind of thing will let those civilians know?" ”

"And how did the rumors of Silent Hill get out?"

Wen Qing remembered the girl who first mentioned the name of Silent Hill last night, if the civilians here really didn't know anything, then how did the rumors come about?

"It's just that there was a small accident during the experiment, and the test subject ran out, so it's not a big deal."

"The test subjects have all run out, and you actually say it's not a big deal!?" Wen Qing's eyes widened suddenly,, if this is not a thing, then what else is it, another raccoon market incident?

"Of course, this kind of accident happens several times a year in various laboratories, and as long as it is handled properly, it is not a big deal." Hank spread his hands, looking like this really wasn't a thing.

Wen Qing's eyelids jumped when he heard this, it's a trivial matter if it's handled properly, and it's big news if it's not right?

"What happened to the Taoist priest that the girl said last night?"

"That," Hank smacked his lips, "I've seen it in the report, it's just an actor that the mayor specially hired for secrecy, tsk, I didn't expect this group of civilians to really believe it." ”

"Since the leak has been disguised as a rumor by the mayor, why do you want to come here again to put an end to it?"

"It's just insurance, the company's rules don't allow any outsiders who might have leaks to survive, isn't that the case with Raccoon City, even if the civilians trapped in the city really don't know anything, the company can't allow them to get out of it alive."

Hearing him say this, Wen Qing suddenly remembered what the 'wolf pack' and the other squads had done in Raccoon City, well, this is really Ambrera's usual style.

To be honest, if he were to be the top of Ambrera, he would probably make this kind of decision, and would rather kill the wrong person than let it go, especially something like the biochemical virus experiment, once the information is leaked, it will be absolutely catastrophic.

"Then those survivors here are really pitiful, they don't know anything, but they are still killed by you." Wen Qing pursed his lips, although he didn't think that this decision was wrong, but he didn't dare to agree.

"These people have enjoyed the benefits of Ambrera and Blackwatch for so many years, and in the end, there is nothing wrong with paying a price." Hank didn't feel much about this: "Isn't there an old saying in your Chinese that 'good and evil are rewarded'? ”

"Good and evil are rewarded, that's a game skill......" The corners of Wen Qing's mouth twitched.

Just as the two were talking, the leopard who was walking in front suddenly stopped.

"Sir, there's a massive collapse in the road ahead, and you'll have to change lanes if you want to keep going."

"Collapse?" Hearing this word, Wen Qing subconsciously stood on tiptoe and looked at the situation in front of him.

The leopard's position was about ten meters away from him, but that didn't prevent him from seeing the collapsed area in front of the girl.

Because, that pit is so big!
