"She thinks I don't know what she's up to; what an amateur!" Eddie walked while whistling casually; his clothes had been changed to a new one, now he felt more comfortable. There was a coffee cup in his right hand that he was currently carrying; the coffee he had previously spilled had been replaced with a new one.
Eddie was quite close to Jill's apartment. He kept walking, as he came close to a turn... *Bump!* Suddenly another clash happened; Eddie quickly started trying to balance his body. Luckily he didn't fall this time, plus the coffee he was carrying was safe.
At the same time, the sound of pain was heard. A young girl who had previously bumped into his body fell to the ground; the girl had short hair and looked very cute.
Jill walked over and immediately helped the girl. She said: "Rebecca, are you okay?"
She continues:
"Eddie, why are you here?"
It turns out that the girl who previously bumped into Eddie was named Rebecca! No wonder she looks very familiar.
Rebecca Chambers, a medical staff member of Team Bravo, is the youngest Team member and a genius!
She graduated from university at a very young age of eighteen. After that, she joined the tactical rescue team with a unique medical background.
"Auch~ it quite hurts. are you okay, sir?" Rebecca rubbed her ass; even so, she still asked about Eddie's safety with a sweet smile.
"Don't worry, I'm fine. By the way, hello, my name is Eddie, Jill's boyfriend." Eddie smiled as he held out his hand.
Rebecca immediately nodded while greeting the man in front of her. "Hello Mr. Eddie, my name is Rebecca, a new member of Team Bravo."
"So, you are Jill's boyfriend... You look so handsome." Rebecca chatted a little while praising Eddie; her unique sweet smile didn't escape her face.
"Haha. You're also adorable." Eddie did not hesitate to praise Rebecca back.
Jill could only shake her head helplessly, but she didn't argue with Eddie's statement. After all, they have been dating, the other party is also quite good; Jill thinks this relationship can develop further.
"Okay, less gossip. Eddie, why are you here? Is there something you're looking for?"
"Uh... I just wanted to come to see you. Oh yeah, if possible, don't come to my villa often, okay, I'm starting to rarely live there."
"My bodyguards also went to do special training, plus I recently got a new job as a researcher around here."
"But if you still want to go to my villa, then take this."
Eddie handed Jill the keys to his villa.
"You can go there yourself; all the facilities are still working perfectly, so don't worry," Eddie said casually.
"Isn't the mountainous area of Arklay getting more and more dangerous? You better not stay there."
"By the way, where do you live now?" Even though Jill doesn't really want to go into dangerous areas, she still accepts the spare key that Eddie gave her; who knows, it will come in handy later. This act was also an expression of Eddie's trust in her, so she couldn't refuse.
"I live in the lab, but if you don't mind, maybe I can move into your apartment." Eddie's smile grew wider, showing Jill his white teeth.
Jill rolled her eyes as she said: "Huh..."
"You don't mind, but I do."
"Sister Jill, I will go first then. Please enjoy your time hehe~."
Rebecca was up to something; she winked at Jill and immediately rushed off. A small laugh escaped her sweet lips.
"Huh… This girl... Forget it, then you can stop by for a bit, maybe sit down and have a drink." Jill immediately dragged Eddie into her apartment.

"Recently, the chief of police, Brian, opposed the investigation we were about to carry out in the mountainous area of Arklay. I smell something fishy here."
"After all, the dog monster we previously encountered is solid evidence of this case!"
"Looks like there's something they're trying to hide!"
At this time, Jill still doesn't know what a biochemical weapon is, let alone the conspiracy being carried out by Umbrella.
"I hope this case will settle down soon; otherwise, it will be torture for me to stay around the Arklay mountains."
"By the way, how about your training Jill? With the appearance of these strange creatures, it's better to be prepared. May your training be able to save you in your most critical moment."
In Eddie's heart, he began to map a plan. He still remembers the plot that will occur in the Resident Evil series. So what he needed to do was make full use of the knowledge he knew.
"I know; of course, I'll try to be more careful. Anyway, thanks for worrying about me, Eddie; you're so kind."
Jill said with a genuine smile.
"Anyway, you keep the villa keys safe; in the villa garage, there is a dirt bike and some heavy weapons that might help you."
"Right now, I want to finish my research project; I will receive a big bonus when I finish it."
"After that, of course, we can immediately leave Raccoon City, buy a new comfortable house, and then we get married."
Eddie finished his sentence in one breath, not forgetting to give Jill a thumbs up with a confident smile.
"Th-this... Isn't this too quick???" Jill looked confused. This man said that without the slightest hint of joking!
