Chapter 61: An Unexpected Reunion
As they spoke, the alarm on their belts began to vibrate violently. The two immediately drew their pistols and prepared to deal with the emergency. Custer turned on the safety of the gun and quickly switched the window on the computer to the pinhole camera outside the door.
He was relieved by the situation at the door, there were only two young men, a man and a woman, and he had seen both of them. Custer turned around the other probes, but found no other threat. As for the two people at the door, they seemed to be discussing who was going to knock on the door.
"Let me come, people like you with a stiff face, who are in a good mood are not willing to answer questions. Seeing that there was no result after discussing for half a minute, Jill pushed Chris away directly, ready to knock on the door himself.
"Hi, Jill. I didn't expect to see you here. Shen Chao opened the door without waiting for her to knock. It made Jill's hand almost hit him in the face.
"Hi, Mr. Shen. We're here, um, to ask you some questions? Jill asked, her expression looking uneasy. I don't know if it was because he almost injured the other party by mistake just now or for some other reason.
"Come in, there are no outsiders here, just me and Custer" Shen Chao said and invited the two of them into the room. Custer sat at the only small table in the room. From time to time, he tapped on the keyboard of his laptop and looked like he was working.
Of course he was just pretending, and when Jill and Chris came in, his attention was focused on these two people. Shen Chao was the same, he warmly invited the two of them to come in on the surface, but in fact he was ready for battle. He asked the two officers to sit on a bed in the room.
Although this is the best room in this hotel, Raccoon City is a small and up-and-coming city. But this room is still only about 30 square meters in size, only enough for two beds, two chairs and two tables. One of the chairs was being used by Custer, so inviting the two of them to sit on the bed was the only way to go.
"What do you need to drink?" Shen Chao asked, although they had just stayed here, they had already bought some drinks that the two of them often drank.
"Mr. Shen, we're not here to ......" Chris was about to say something, but was interrupted by Jill.
"Actually, we ......," Jill said, picking up the conversation. But she was interrupted by Shen Chao.
"I guess what investigation you're doing, right, Jill?" Shen Chao asked after pouring himself a small glass of white wine, he especially liked this low-to-explosive drink during the operation.
"Yes, my partner thinks you may have something to do with the incident at the mansion that happened on the outskirts of the city a few days ago, where there was a small fire......" Jill awkwardly picked her words, trying to avoid using accusatory words, but she would soon learn that her words didn't matter at all, because Shen Chao confessed almost immediately.
"That's right, Custer and I were both involved in that incident. But we didn't set the fire. Shen Chao said to them lightly, as if he was joking.
"Really, you're involved...... That incident? Jill was incredible.
"Gentlemen, I need you to accompany me and Officer Valentine to the police station. Chris said and stood up. Ready to forcibly take the two of them, at least he thought he was ready.
"I'm sorry, Officer Redfield. I'm not going to go with you to the police. At least not yet, we're still waiting for someone here. Shen Chao didn't care about Chris's actions at all, and sat on the chair and said slowly.
"Are you going to refuse to cooperate with the police investigation......" Seeing Shen Chao's fearless appearance, Chris became nervous, and he reached for his matching gun. And so, the cups happened. …,
It's a well-known common sense not to draw a gun face-to-face at a trained professional soldier unless necessary. And for Chris. Redfield, a former Air Force pilot, was extremely unfortunate for him: the man in front of him was much more powerful than the average professional soldier.
Shen Chao started to act as soon as he reached for the holster. His strength, speed, skill, experience, and reflexes surpass Chris across the board. So, the moment Chris drew his gun, he felt a huge impact coming from his abdomen. Before he could react from the pain in his abdomen, he felt like someone had grabbed the gun in his hand.
The force from the gun indicated that someone was snatching his gun, and Chris pulled the pistol back with all his might, but before he could actually use it, the force was gone. When he nervously held back the pain and lifted the pistol, he was surprised to find that the sleeve of the Beretta 92FS pistol in his hand was gone. And the magazine on the gun is also missing.
Before he could take any further action, he felt a sharp pain in the back of his neck. Then his eyes went black, and he fell straight to the ground. Speaking of his partner, didn't Jill who was sitting next to him say anything? Of course not, but Jill had a similar problem with his partner when he tried to pull out the gun.
As soon as she pulled the matching gun out of its holster, the sleeve and magazine were removed. Slightly different from Chris, she probably saw the process of her own failure.
Shen Chao stood up when Chris pulled out his gun. He first gave Chris a "gently" knee hit. Knocked Chris to the point where he almost vomited out the gastric juices, and then, before the two of them managed to pull out their pistols, he used his two large hands to reach out to the two officers' guns, and before the two of them could show them, he performed the actions he had practiced thousands of times, and the guns of the two officers were scrapped.
It's that simple, and of course, he's so fast that he can't see it with the naked eye. Far beyond what ordinary people can react to. Therefore, Jill was helplessly disarmed when he saw an afterimage, and Chris, who was taken care of by him, lost his combat effectiveness without even seeing the afterimage.
"This is the so-called elite, at this level? Custer was incredulous, and he didn't know what to say as he looked at the two "protagonists" lying unconscious. Just now, after Shen Chao disarmed Jill, he took advantage of Jill in a daze to knock Jill to the ground with one move.
"Be lenient, man, they're cops after all. Shen Chao said as he handcuffed the two police officers, and stuffed the pillow towel on the pillow of the hotel.
After tying their hands and feet, the two of them woke them up with water. Of course, as part of the female privilege, Shen Chao just wiped Jill with a wet towel to wipe her face. Chris next to him didn't have this treatment, and opened his eyes after pouring a bottle of water.
"I'm sorry, Jill, and... Chris. We didn't mean to hurt you. Shen Chao began to try to explain to the two "protagonists", anyway, there is a great possibility that many plots will happen in the future, so he doesn't care about leaking some "inside information" to the two "protagonists" in advance.
"Here's the thing, what happened at the Raccoon City Mansion wasn't a fire, and the explosion in Los Angeles wasn't a terrorist attack or something. Both events can be said to be the result of the failure of the Ambrera crisis PR. Shen Chao also chose his own words, trying to clear himself and Custer's responsibilities in these two incidents. He instinctively didn't want to make a bad impression on Jill.
"Jill, what do you have to say?" Shen Chao saw that Jill was struggling to speak after hearing this, so he asked. …,
"Don't shout, I'll let you talk, okay?" Shen Chao saw that she was so eager, so he discussed it with her, and when he saw Jill nodding, he took out the pillow towel from her mouth.
"What are you going to do with us?" Jill asked, staring straight into his eyes, her eyes vicious, not at all as careful and polite as before.
"It's nothing, I'll tell you what happened in the past few days, and then I'll let you go, and you decide for yourself whether to report us or help us." Shen Chao stroked her hair and said. He loved Jill's hair, it was soft. And her skin, which is very delicate, not as rough as most Western women.
Of course, in order to avoid being bitten by Jill who was not very stable at this time, he did not stop his hand there. I have to say that the current Shen Chao is not suitable for interrogation. Although it was already early in the morning, there was no problem with his energy.
The problem is that he has been busy for months on end, not touching a woman for a long time, and the Jill in front of him gives him the urge to turn into a wolf. Of course, it's just impulse. He quickly adjusted his mindset and continued to explain.
"On the day of the Mansion incident, we were inside. It's a fact. But we didn't go to wreak havoc, on the contrary, we rescued a lot of people. Shen Chao didn't mention that he went in just to get evidence that could be used to blackmail Ambrera.
"Saving people? Only one couple lived there. And they disappeared after that fire. Jill asked, glaring at him, mocking in his tone. She's not a fool, on the contrary, Jill. Valentine was very intelligent, and although she shared the fact that her colleagues felt that the fire in the mansion was strange, he was not enough to believe in some stories that were too absurd.
In addition, she also heard that Shen Chao's story concealed a lot of important content. Coupled with the fact that she was tied up by the man in front of her and couldn't move, as a normal woman, of course she was angry. Especially, when the first impression of the man in front of her is still very good.
