Facing Wang Auntie's disbelief, Javier shrugged, answering helplessly, while pulling out a few crumpled dollar bills from his pocket.
This made Wang Auntie shake her head. Six years had passed, and this man was still so tasteless, as annoying as ever. But miraculously… Javier was actually in the same line of work as her? Even Wang Auntie herself couldn't believe it.
This terrible man in front of her, unbelievably, even his age, cognition, values, worldview, and even his job content were similar to hers, which was incredibly hard to believe.
"Alright,"
"Javier, talking to you is a waste of breath. Although I don't know where you intercepted the news, if we're going to cooperate, let's be more sincere. Now Luis is gone, and the Amber is gone. Do you have any ideas?"
Putting away her pistol, Wang Auntie sighed deeply. Arguing with Javier was an absolute waste of time, because this man was immune to everything.
Since that was the case, it was better to be straightforward. If they were going to cooperate, they should quickly figure out how to find Luis and then the Amber, which would show more sincerity.
"A very wise choice!"
"It seems Wang Auntie, you've agreed to cooperate with me. This is a pleasant start. I probably know where Luis is. Of course, Wang Auntie, you also need to show your sincerity."
"Report the situation to Wesker, tell him Luis is missing and you need more time to investigate. Also, don't tell him about my existence, or that vengeful old man might send bombers to attack me."
Snapping his fingers, facing Wang Auntie's understanding, Javier also seemed very happy. But before that, they had to trick Wesker, after all, if Wesker knew Wang Auntie was cooperating with Javier, he would probably send air forces to bomb him.
After all, to Wesker, Chris was his true love, while Javier was truly disgusting, like a cockroach or rat from a sewer, repeatedly ruining his plans.
He had even made him lose face multiple times. This vengeful man would not allow anyone who knew his dark history to exist in the world, so Javier had to die for Wesker to feel at ease.
"Hmph…"
"I understand. Give me a few minutes."
Wang Auntie stared at Javier's face for a few seconds, finally compromising. She took out her satellite communicator and began contacting Wesker, who was far away in Africa.
And just as Wang Auntie said, it only took a few minutes for Wang Auntie to finish communicating with Wesker, canceling the helicopter support, and finally giving Wang Auntie some more time to find Luis and obtain the Amber.
But the price… Due to the mistake, Wang Auntie's deposit was permanently deducted by one hundred thousand dollars. This meant that no matter how excellent Wang Auntie's mission completion was, one hundred thousand dollars would always be deducted from the total deposit reward. One hundred thousand dollars was merely a drop in the bucket for Wesker.
But this annoying man just wanted to annoy Wang Auntie, to make Wang Auntie execute the mission properly and not secretly engage in small actions.
Furthermore, to improve the work efficiency of his employee, Wang Auntie, Wesker even issued a time rule. There were two agents from The Illuminados, one was Wang Auntie, and the other was Krauser. If the Plaga parasite sample, "Amber," was found first by Krauser,
Then the deposit originally owed to Wang Auntie would be zero, not even a penny of hard-earned money. This subconsciously put a lot of pressure on Wang Auntie. If "Amber" was snatched by that bastard Krauser, wouldn't she have worked for nothing?
Thinking of this, Wang Auntie's captivating eyes instantly became sharp, and she looked at Javier with disgust.
As if to say… look, it's all your fault that my mission reward is gone. The original two million dollars now feels like a bubble that could vanish at any moment.
In response, Javier shrugged innocently.
What a joke, what does this have to do with me? This woman is really crazy for money. Luis wasn't kidnapped by him. Even if he didn't come, you would still report the situation to Wesker, right? Why are you blaming everything on me now?
But it doesn't matter, women are always so unreasonable. Even someone as strong as Wang Auntie can't escape the nature of being a woman, and naturally, she will have this unreasonable personality. This is ingrained in her DNA, completely irresistible when it acts up.
But to be fair, Wesker was indeed very generous.
Two million dollars is already a lot. In 2023, it might not be worth mentioning for everyone here, after all, too many astronomical figures have been seen, and the senses have become numb. But in reality, only when you get it in your hands do you understand how rich two million dollars is. It is now 2004, and the exchange rate of the US dollar is as high as 1:8, which is more than sixteen million RMB. This is already a very high reward for a bounty hunter.
"Don't look at me…!"
"At most, I guarantee you'll get the sample one hundred percent, that's it. Now let's go to the village chief's house first, it's the mansion of Bitores Mendez, the village chief of this village, the large house behind the village. Luis is very likely to have been tied up there."
Raising his hands again to show his innocence, Javier quickly blurted out useful information to appease Wang Auntie's injured heart over her lost money.
Although in the original plot, Luis was trapped in a small house, Luis was indeed captured by Village Chief Mendez. The small house was just where Village Chief Mendez hid him. According to the current timeline, Luis might not have been moved by Village Chief Mendez yet. If they go to the mansion, they might even run into him!
Hearing Javier's words, Wang Auntie narrowed her eyes and nodded. She lifted her cheongsam to reveal her fair and delicate long legs, put her pistol back into its holster, and prepared to set off.
Although she wasn't sure what Javier's basis was, as long as she trusted this man's judgment, she wouldn't be wrong. After all, back in Raccoon City, Javier was the one who led them out of the G Virus Research Institute.
Of course, Javier might also possess unique intelligence or tracking methods, but he just didn't know how to speak. Just like Wang Auntie herself, she also had secrets unknown to others.
However, just as Wang Auntie, dressed in her sexy cheongsam, was about to leave, Javier immediately called out to this decisive woman.
"Hey, wait, Wang Auntie!"
"Don't be so anxious, you have to go to the top of the bell tower and ring the bronze bell first."
Javier's voice slowly came from behind, and these inexplicable words made Wang Auntie turn her head, frowning, somewhat confused about Javier's meaning. What did finding Luis have to do with ringing the church bell?
Looking at Wang Auntie's puzzled expression, Javier shook his head helplessly and chuckled:
"These Plaga parasite villagers have a set death command: whenever the church bell rings, they will drop whatever they are doing and run to the church to pray. This is a death command given to them by Sadler."
"Ringing the bell can gather all of them, which will make it easier for us to investigate. After all, you don't want to encounter Plaga Parasite Villagers all the way, do you?"
"What's more… someone is already close to their limit…"
Faintly, Javier explained this to Wang Auntie.
Hearing this, Wang Auntie still looked confused, but she still pulled out her grapple gun and fired it towards the top of the church bell tower.
With a "bang," accompanied by the operation of the conceptual weapon, the grapple gun, the power of a small pistol actually dragged Wang Auntie, a woman weighing fifty to sixty kilograms, up. It was simply incredible.
Compared to so-called single-soldier electromagnetic cannons, Javier always felt that the grapple gun was the bug of the Resident Evil series, because with Javier's small brain capacity, he really couldn't understand how a small pistol, relying on what energy inside, could carry the weight of a living person, and even transform into Spider-Man, spitting webs everywhere and swinging. It was simply one of the greatest inventions of the century!
"Whoosh…!"
As expected, Wang Auntie, dressed in a sexy cheongsam, successfully flew up. Javier's eyes glanced mischievously, successfully catching a glimpse of that spring scenery.
It was a captivating, irresistible, and incredibly suffocating sight, woven from black silk, with transparent lace edges… a sexy lace safety shorts.
That's right… Javier bet his entire romantic fortune that it was safety shorts. Although it was only for a blink of an eye, it was indeed it.
As expected, it's you, Wang Auntie. The most alluring flower always holds the most chaste and conservative pistil, and it only blooms for the right person—
As for why she's outwardly alluring but inwardly conservative? Tsk… can't beauty be fully displayed?
What's wrong with wanting more choices in a partner? Did I eat your family's rice?
Undoubtedly, this is Wang Auntie—
"Bang…"
"Leon…? Why is that rookie officer here…?"
Landing steadily on the church roof, Wang Auntie looked down at the distant village and indeed saw Leon fighting alone. She was somewhat puzzled as to why familiar faces were appearing one by one, but while puzzled, Wang Auntie still jumped into the bell tower and vigorously shook the bronze bell.
"Dong dong dong—!!!"
"Clang—clang—clang—!!!"
Just like that, deep bell sounds slowly rang out, spreading into the distance. Having done all this, Wang Auntie clapped her hands, and with agile movements, she leaped down. With another thud, Wang Auntie landed steadily.
"Bang…"
"The person you mentioned, is that rookie cop? Why is he here? Is he also here for the Plaga parasite sample?"
Having finished all of this, Wang Auntie slightly raised her head, recalling Leon's lone fighting figure just now, and asked Javier with a slightly puzzled tone.
Charging directly into the village and fighting the Plaga Parasite Villagers was undoubtedly the stupidest behavior. That rookie cop hadn't improved at all, wasting the fact that Wang Auntie had once saved Leon's life in Raccoon City. Although it was evened out when the G Virus Research Institute exploded later, she didn't like very stupid people.
"No,"
"His purpose is to rescue the President's daughter. Sadler, in order to control the United States Government, sent people to kidnap President's daughter Ashley Graham. Leon is here for the President's daughter. But… rookie cop? No… he's now a top agent of the United States Government. Haven't you two met yet?"
Hearing Wang Auntie's question, Javier was somewhat puzzled, thinking that Wang Auntie and Leon had a very good relationship, but it seemed Wang Auntie had never cared about Leon's experiences, and didn't even know that Leon had transformed from a rookie cop into a top agent of the United States Government.
"No…"
"I've never seen such a stupid agent. Since the Raccoon City incident ended, you and I haven't been in contact, let alone met, so I don't know about your affairs, including how he became an agent from a rookie cop."
Waving her hand, Wang Auntie indicated she wasn't familiar, then slowly walked off alone into the distance. Seeing this, a helpless Javier could only jog to catch up.
"Da da da…"
"Tap tap tap…"
"But it's been six whole years! I even auctioned your limited edition red rose black card business card to Leon for three thousand dollars, what a pity. Woman… I find you really cold and heartless!"
"Heh heh… Is that so? You casually sold the business card I gave you to someone else, and you never even contacted me. Man, aren't you also very heartless? I was even looking forward to seeing what wonderful expression Wesker's face would show when you entered Tricell, what a pity…!"
Bickering with each other, their figures gradually walked towards the distant mansion. Thus—
Chapter 11: A True Bandit
"Dong dong dong…"
"Clang—clang—clang—!!!"
Deep bell sounds reverberated, and Leon, holding a shotgun, looked blankly at the swinging bell in the distance. At this moment, he had been surrounded and cornered by the Plaga Parasite Villagers, and at his feet lay the corpse of a grotesque man wearing a sack over his head and wielding a chainsaw.
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre… Leon truly hadn't expected that a movie plot would actually play out in reality, and on him no less. The blood-soaked chainsaw butcher chased him all over the village. Leon also found this shotgun in a hunter's house and fired several rounds to take him down.
