Survival in the game world starts with Resident Evil 2

Chapter 751: Subsequent Processing, Part

Putting aside other things, Li You was very sure that when he wrote to Mela, he asked her to join Trasefer's research team.

It is impossible for a secret department to recruit people in a high-profile manner. Even if the people are selected based on Li You's foresight, this matter will not be made clear when they are invited. Instead, they will all be invited in the name of Trasefer.

On top of that, the secret department will ask different "introducers" to meet the candidate depending on the degree of importance, and give them some subtle hints to let them know what they actually need to do. This is basically the process.

The introducers were all important figures in Trasever and BSAA. As for Mera, Li You remembered that according to the records, Rebecca went there in person when she was on a business trip a few months ago.

Given Rebecca's personality, it's impossible that she hadn't been told clearly.

So how did Meera misunderstand?
After asking carefully, Li You found out that Rebecca had indeed explained everything to Mela, but at that time Mela was more interested in her experience as a STARS student and pestered her to ask many related questions. As a result, she was so excited at the end that she simply forgot the last few words of Rebecca's invitation for her to join the "research team".

After that, she immediately submitted her application and was successfully approved. After waiting for a few months, she got permission for the meeting, which made her even more excited, so she rushed over without hesitation.

As for the research team? Who knows about this?

Looking at the embarrassed Meila, Li You felt helpless. Why did he feel that her personality was somewhat different from that in the original comics?

...Maybe it's because her family in this world is not so unfortunate, Li You will definitely not say anything bad about her, but I don't know if she will change her mind.

Fortunately, Mela was very enthusiastic about joining the secret department, and she immediately said, "It doesn't matter. I am also a very good researcher! I have also won the title of Outstanding Researcher of our branch this year. In the past two years, I have also produced achievements such as "Detailed Analysis of the Characteristics of XXX Virus", "Research on the Breeding Conditions of XXX Parasites", "About XXX..." and so on..."

Mela listed a lot of her research results like naming dishes. Even though Li You could remember the names, he had no idea what they were talking about specifically.

"Okay, okay, okay, I'm very clear about your achievements." Li You had to interrupt her. "So, you have no objection to joining Trasever as a researcher?"

"Of course not!" Mela said loudly, "I will never slack off! Don't worry! I will complete all the research tasks assigned to me. Ms. Rebecca also recognizes my ability!"

But after she finished speaking, she hesitated for a moment, and then asked cautiously: "But...if I complete the research task on time, can I go to the training ground and practice with them?"

Lee had fun.

"Okay, no problem. As long as you can complete your research tasks, you can have as much free time as you want."

"Great!!" Mela's excitement was so great that she almost jumped up and cheered. She even excitedly high-fived Pierce next to her. "You were better just now, but I won't lose next time! Let's compete again later!"

Pierce was also infected by her enthusiasm and said with a smile: "Okay, let's compete again later."

"A word is settled!"

Li You sat nearby and watched, smiling without saying a word, with deep meaning in his eyes.

Well, don't get me wrong, he will certainly not break his promise. As long as Vanmela joins the research team of the secret department and can complete his research tasks, then there will be no problem for him to go to the training ground.

The premise is...she can really complete it.

The research team of the secret department has been extremely busy recently. Everyone from top to bottom has been working around the clock, with almost no free time. Even most of Angel's computing power has been used by them for assistance.

Now Emma and the others really want to use both sides of their brains separately.

After Meila passes the final review and joins their team, she will surely realize what Li You’s smile means now…

The meeting with Pierce and Mela ended here. Naturally, there would be other people responsible for connecting and training the newcomers.

For example, the one waiting for Pierce was Carlos, who happened to be free recently. He stood outside the lounge, holding a toothpick in his mouth, and looked over boredly: "Boy, here."

As for Mela, as soon as she walked out of the lounge, she saw several colleagues in white coats rushing towards her with green eyes.

"That's her, right?"

"She's the only one who didn't run away!"

"Hehehe, it's finally here!"

Their scene frightened Mela so much that she almost retreated to the lounge, but those people who looked like researchers grabbed her, quickly put a white coat on her, and then almost drove her to the experimental area.

"Wait, I remember she still needs to go through an audit, right?"

"Ah, time waits for no one. Besides, the person Li You named can't make any mistakes, so just use him! If he really doesn't pass the review, the worst that can happen is that we can give him an injection and he won't remember anything."

"That makes sense!"

Mela: “???”

She suddenly realized something. Putting aside the evil scientist's remarks, this atmosphere was very similar to the scene in the research institute when the project reached the deadline!

Mela quickly turned around and looked at Pierce: "Wait, save..."

Before she could finish her words, she was dragged away by the researchers and disappeared into the gate of the research area.

Pierce was stunned.

"...Don't look at me, kid." Carlos took out the toothpick in his mouth and threw it away. "Let's go to the training ground. Tsk, Chris always asks me to coach the people he wants to coach. When he wakes up, I'll have to ask him to buy me a few more drinks."

Pierce followed him obediently and listened to his words completely, with a slightly strange look on his face.

After thinking for a while, he asked, "Well, I wonder if Mela is..."

Carlos glanced at him and said, "Don't worry, it's not a big deal. The research department is simply too short of people. Your friend... well, wait for ten days or half a month, maybe he can get some sleep."

Pierce: “???”

But before he could ask more questions, they had already arrived at the training ground. Carlos pushed open the door and said, "It's a good opportunity to meet him. He should be your senior." Pierce looked into the training ground and saw a shirtless, muscular young man sweating in front of a punching bag.

Hearing the commotion over here, he turned around and saw the two people. He couldn't help but smile and said, "You are the newcomer Chris was talking about. Welcome! Come on, you can practice with me!"

Pierce looked at the young man, not knowing who he was, but he felt familiar. But he could understand the identity of his senior brother, and seeing that Carlos had no intention of speaking, Pierce nodded: "Okay!"

Jack grinned as he was practicing: "Very good, I'm counting on you, Junior Brother!"

……

Li You in the living room did not go out immediately, but took the opportunity to make himself a cup of tea and take a short rest.

It's rare to catch a fish.

Of course, he didn't touch it thoroughly. He was thinking about what to do next while drinking tea.

Apart from anything else, there is more than one person who has recently joined the secret department and is worthy of attention. In addition to her, there is another important person, that is Mia Winters.

Mia arrived early, and after making great contributions, she has now passed the review as she wished, has long been integrated into the research team, and was assigned the recent task of studying mold.

Although she was also so busy that her eyes were almost covered by dark circles, she was enjoying it and devoted herself to research without sleep or food, so much so that Anqi had to remind her from time to time to stop working and take a rest.

When they occasionally talked on the phone, Ethan, who was far away in the United States, was shocked to see her haggard face but extremely excited eyes. He almost thought that his fiancée had taken some strange medicine and had a health problem.

Mia later explained it to him, but Ethan still couldn't help feeling worried, as if they were planning to move to Europe earlier.

Li You was not worried about the affairs of the young couple. If something went wrong with them, he would probably start to doubt whether love really existed.

He was just thinking, when Ethan moved closer to the headquarters, should he recruit him to be a colleague of Mia?
I don't want Ethan to become a combatant, but I remember that his main job is an engineer or something like that, so he is considered a high-end talent. Wouldn't it be a good idea to let him join the logistics department?
Moreover, if they both stay in the secret department, Li You will have a legitimate reason to visit their child when he is born.

After all, Li You still cared about what would happen to the child Rosemary Winters.

Ethan, who was originally a humanoid fungus beast, and Mia, who was deeply infected, conceived this child. The child was born with extremely strong talents and adaptability to fungi, even completely surpassing the mother goddess Miranda. Just by coming into contact with Miranda, the baby Rose would instinctively absorb her power.

This talent of Rose is also the reason why she was targeted in the DLC.

In this world, it is clear that Ethan Mia and her husband will not be infected by the mold. Even if Mia encounters an accident during the experiment, the secret department has sufficient countermeasures and will not let her leave with the infection.

So in this situation, after Rosemary Winters is born, will there be any difference from the original baby except for her physical condition?

This question will be left for future exploration.

——On the other hand, the aftermath of a series of previous large-scale events has not yet subsided.

This does not refer to the impact on a large scale, such as the international community, but rather to the fact that the impact is still continuing among the people or organizations closely related to these events.

The Alliance was destroyed, and the secret organization that Wesker founded after abandoning HCF also self-destructed and perished at his instruction, but their remaining influence was enough to cause a stir in the biochemical underground world.

The BSAA seized this opportunity, used its intelligence advantage, and conducted fishing enforcement, aiming to lure in the small, scattered organizations that had heard the news.

Li You didn't care about this. He thought that the fish caught by such means would not be a big fish. His main focus should still be on the family.

He did not forget that his original plan was to keep the family in his hands and to make Adam Benford the next president of the United States.

Simmons is still under their control now, and it has been a blessing in disguise because of a series of previous decisions that were "correct and in line with family interests and style of doing things." Simmons, who had lost a lot of points because of the Radames incident and was even at risk of being forced to abdicate by conservatives within the family, has now regained the right to speak.

Li You had not anticipated such subsequent impacts before, because only the family could secretly spread their spies around the world.

But this is indeed a good thing. Previously, Li You had planned to abandon the family after using it up, but this incident made him more clearly realize how much power a huge organization like the family can exert at important moments.

It would be a waste to leave such a force alone or destroy it. So Li You decided that it would be better to keep the family firmly in his hands from top to bottom and let them play the greatest role.

As for how to do it?
Now that he had Simmons as a puppet, he didn't have to worry about how to deal with the family. There was no need to talk about morality with these people, he just had to show his true abilities.

Li You had already planned that Simmons would convene all the powerful elders in the family for a top-level meeting in the name of "discussing various major events during this period."

Needless to say, what awaits them at that time will be Edge's army of night demons.

Of course, Li You had no intention of handing over the command of the family to anyone in this world, including his comrades-in-arms who he could trust with his life and death.

Mainly, for the residents of this world, an organization that can secretly influence the entire world and completely obey orders is still too powerful. Only those of us who are beyond this world can better control them.

After taking control of the family, Li You planned to let them operate on their own at ordinary times, but he would transform from controlling the deep government of the United States to an almost completely underground organization, retaining only the influence.

In this way, they don't interfere in worldly affairs in normal times, but at critical moments, the family's power can still come in handy.

This is the general idea. Edge is already preparing and the operation will begin soon.

As for his comrades, Li You would not hide it from them, and they would not doubt Li You. For everyone, it was enough to know that the family would be controlled by Li You in the future and could borrow his power at critical moments.

——These are the most important matters. There are many other trivial matters, but I will not go into details.

After finishing up here, Li You had almost finished his tea. He immediately stood up and prepared to end his idle time.

Just at this moment, An Qi's image appeared again.

"Mr. Li You, Ms. Kara said that you should have rested enough. Let me remind you that it's time to go to the Level 2 quarantine area."

"...The timing is so accurate." Li You couldn't help but complain, and then replied, "I'm just about to go there too, let's go."
