I'm the main character in Resident Evil

"It's a piano, and it has a black and gold edging pattern. You can tell it's expensive at first glance. Billy, you have sharper eyes. Although I don't know what brand it is, it will definitely be much more expensive than the fine wine and records here if I sell it."

"It's a pity that there are only three of us here, so we have no choice but to use a trailer to transport it, otherwise we would definitely be able to move it out."

Noticing Billy's gaze,

Javier slowly walked to Billy's side, looked at the piano in front of him... and immediately showed an expression of sudden enlightenment and said lightly, "So you are interested in the piano, no wonder you are not interested in wine and records.

Javier, who looked like a country bumpkin, stretched out his hands to the expensive but dusty piano keys and began to dance and play:

“Dang…dangdang…ding ding ding…”

Playing randomly without any rules,

The expensive piano emitted a series of piercing sounds, causing Billy to frown slightly, and Rebecca showed an uncomfortable expression as if her ears were pierced by the devil's sound. There was no doubt... Javier played an ugly piece of hell music.

But Javier was still immersed in his own world, his eyes were tightly closed, his expression was subtle, his head moved with the music, he just felt that he had performed exceptionally well today, that he had extraordinary strength, and that he had created an incredibly beautiful sound.

Until...

Rebecca was furious.

She picked up the newspaper next to her, rolled it up, and hit Javier hard on the back of his head! With a "bang", Javier was completely awakened from his dream. Javier looked at Rebecca with resentment, as if to say, "If you don't give me an explanation, I will not let you go today."

After all, who made Javier feel that he was full of inspiration today, like a torrent of water, inexhaustible, and would soon create a great composition that surpassed Beethoven, so... why did this little girl Rebecca bother him? !

"Humph!"

"What are you looking at? Javier, why don't you use a cotton swab to dig out the earwax? How long has it been since you cleaned your clogged ear cavity? You can't even hear such an unpleasant piano performance. How long do you want to continue to torture us...?"

Facing Javier's expression,

Rebecca didn't hold back at all and directly attacked Javier with foul language, which made Javier look a little embarrassed.

indeed,

He knew his own limitations and just wanted to do some work, but he didn't expect Rebecca to be so disrespectful to him.

"Ha ha……"

"You know what? This is a new piece I created based on Flight of the Bumblebee by the great Russian composer Nikolai Andreevich Rimsky-Korsakov. I named it The Spring of Effluxion. In short, this piano piece can be played in different ways depending on the performer's mood and situation. It's a very cool New Age piece."

He curled his lips.

Javier, who was still stubborn, explained with a faint disdain, "What a joke... How could his music be interpreted casually by others?"

"simply put……"

"It's just made up nonsense, right?"

And Rebecca still showed no mercy.

She continued to give Javier the last knife, which made Javier's old face blush. He was too lazy to continue arguing with this little girl. This girl was too hateful. She didn't know how to leave a way out for herself so that they could meet again in the future. She was so shameless!

Billy Cohen, who hadn't said anything for a long time, looked at the two funny guys in front of him helplessly and started again...

In order not to get involved in the war between these two clowns,

Billy Cohen took the initiative to sit down on the piano bench, looking at the black and gold piano in front of him seriously, and his calloused fingers gently touched the black and white keys. A former lieutenant of the Marine Corps suddenly turned into a piano prince? There is no doubt... No one dared to imagine this scene.

"..."

"Billy, can you also play the piano?" +2

coincidentally,

Javier and Rebecca both looked at Billy Cohen as if they had seen a ghost. After all, the style of the painting was different no matter how you looked at it. It was too weird.

But in fact,

Billy Cohen really can. Before becoming a second lieutenant in the Marine Corps, Billy's biggest hobby when he was in school was playing the piano. This hobby has been retained until now. Billy Cohen has not changed it and is even still very familiar with it. He has not discarded the tenderness in his heart. Perhaps this is the tenderness of a tough guy.

Billy's piano skills are not at the master level.

But there is still a minimum professional level.

After all, this is his hobby that he has practiced for many years. Once the mission is over, Billy Cohen will often practice piano during his vacation, and he will not give up.

"Ding……"

Slowly play a note on the piano keys.

Still so familiar and pleasant,

The sound quality of this piano is also very good. It is worthy of being an expensive piano of an old brand. Billy Cohen feels eager to try it. The piano score is Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata in C Minor. Billy Cohen hasn't played it for a long time, but he can't stop the feeling.

“Boom…boom…boom…boom…boom…”

“Ding… Ding ding ding…”

First there was a low note,

It is as if I have come to the quiet sea at night, waiting for the moonlight to rise slowly. As the music rises, the low notes slowly begin to become active. The whole bright full moon is already hanging high in the sky, spreading its light to the fullest.

all of a sudden,

Javier and Rebecca were both immersed in the Moonlight played by Billy Cohen. Although they could not be said to be mesmerized, the expressions on their faces showed that they enjoyed it. Billy Cohen's piano level is indeed at a professional level, which is amazing!

And gradually,

The song ended, bringing Javier and Rebecca back to reality.

"..."

"Look, this is music, this is piano, what was that you just played..."

it's over,

Rebecca was still savoring the song she had just played. She had taught herself to play the piano when she was in school, but unfortunately she didn't have the talent and the stuff she played was only slightly better than Javier's. So when she saw Billy Cohen's professional-level piano playing, she was very impressed!

Of course,

Although she admired him, Rebecca still did not forget to criticize her partner Javier. After all, the difference between what Billy Cohen played and what Javier played was like the difference between dog shit and flowers.

And facing Rebecca's finishing blow taunt,

Javier did not refute, but just snorted coldly, because he also felt that Billy's piano playing was indeed good and there was no room for rebuttal. He also admired him very much, but this did not mean that Javier gave up, because he was just not good at piano.

When I was in school in my previous life,

In order to cultivate his sentiments, Javier also learned some musical instruments, but he did not choose the piano. After all, the piano is so big that it can only be played in a special venue. Buying a piano for practice is also ridiculously expensive. It is elegant to play, but it is too troublesome. Therefore, Javier chose to give up.

Instruments like guitar and drums are too unique, and they don't have an elegant and noble temperament. Instead, they are more inclined to a free style. Therefore, Javier, who was unwilling to give up his elegant and noble temperament, chose a more free-spirited harmonica.

Compared to piano,

Although the harmonica lacks some nobility, it is more free and easy, just like a man as windy as the wind. After all, the ancient European bards, in addition to playing the harp, reciting poems and telling stories, also played the harmonica beautifully.

Therefore, compared to the piano, Javier said that he is better at harmonica, and he can play Castle in the Sky, Kikujiro's Summer, Anohana, and Longing Beyond Time and Space for you in a minute. Fortunately, he traveled through the Resident Evil and was a member of the STARS team, so he had to deal with zombies every day.

Otherwise, if it were an ordinary campus romance or some superstar dungeon world, Javier would be the most outstanding harmonica composer in the entire 21st century. After all, copying official documents is something that all time travelers can do.

Pity……

The most outstanding composer of the 21st century can't do it.

I can only be a member of the STARS team to eliminate zombies and save the world. How boring!

"Billy Cohen's piano skills are great, but I'm better at the harmonica. If you could hear me, you'd probably admire me even more..."

He curled his lips.

Javier muttered to himself in dissatisfaction,

"Om-!"

"Crack...!!!"

but,

Just at this time,

Before Javier could continue speaking, a sudden sound interrupted the three people's thoughts and focused all their attention on the wall behind the piano stand. As the music ended, the entire wall suddenly began to sag, and a very obvious gap appeared. A hidden secret door in the wall suddenly opened slowly in front of Javier and the other two.

"Rumble..."

Just like the legendary "Open Sesame".

The secret door in the wall was slowly pushed open, revealing a hidden secret room. It turned out that the piano just now was the mechanism, and the key to open the secret room was the music score on the piano. After playing the corresponding song, the door could be opened smoothly.

This is really a difficult mechanism to guess. This mechanism is likely to eliminate many people, especially piano idiots like Javier and Rebecca. It will probably take a long time for them to play the song completely.

However... what Javier and the other two did not expect was that the secret room inside was not a mysterious place hiding any treasures, but just a wine cellar.

There were rows of wine racks in the secret room, and on the racks were bottles of treasured wine. Judging from the vintage, they were older than those on the bars. Without a doubt, these were the fine wines hidden in the research institute.

Seeing this...

Javier was too lazy to continue showing himself.

He ran over and took down a few bottles of wine and put them into his tactical backpack. The wine here has not been opened yet. It is not from 1998... or even an older year. If he were to sell it in 2023, how much money would it fetch?

It is said that the red wines in some five-star restaurants, such as the well-known Lafite red wine on the Internet, no longer have the so-called 82 vintage. The inventory has been sold out long ago. With such a large sales volume, where do so many 82 Lafite bottles come from? They just take the 82 bottles and fill them with new red wine for sale. Just like the current Moutai, they sell the bottles instead of the wine.

Therefore, it can be seen how hot the sale of these fine wines is, and a lot of money can be made. As an old money-grubber, Javier naturally cannot let it go -

but,

In addition to these fine wines,

There was also a large battery placed inside the wall of the wine cellar. Although it was a little rusty on the outside, it seemed that the power storage capacity inside had not been reduced much and it could still be used. I don’t know if it was intuition or something else, but Rebecca looked at the battery in front of her and felt that it would be useful later, so she took it down without any hesitation...

As always, once the word count is enough, I have to put it on the shelf to make money. I have no choice but to make some money, but the results are not very ideal. After all, Resident Evil... The subject matter is niche enough, and the idea of ​​writing Resident Evil is also a whim for the remake of Resident Evil 4.

At present, the collection is less than 1,000, and I guess I have to send it, but it doesn’t matter. I just need to eat full attendance and have enough food and clothing. I will also ensure that I will finish writing here. At present, I have written nearly five or six books on Hedgehog Cat, with a total of nearly 10 million words, and I have never abandoned it, so please rest assured,

Of course, old fans, please don’t pick on my dark history. I haven’t updated my fgo Grand Order for several months, and I haven’t updated Cyberpunk this month. I’m busy writing this biochemical novel, so I’ll put it aside for now. I will finish writing Cyberpunk in the next two months, and then I will probably continue to write my fgo under my fgo account, and double-open this biochemical novel. Therefore, the probability of me quitting is still very low.

Finally, the subscription will be available tomorrow morning. If you have the ability to subscribe and think this book is okay, thank you for helping to subscribe, vote for recommendation, etc. Thank you, Arigato, Mina-san...

Chapter 39: Church

After removing the battery,

Javier and his two companions searched the secret cellar again, but unfortunately, apart from this very useful battery, there were not many other props.

Without any choice,

Javier and the other two had no choice but to give up the wine cellar and piano they were reluctant to leave and continue walking towards the next room. It was a pity that all the wines were wasted. Javier could only put a few bottles in his pocket. It would be great if he could really move all of them away...

"Click..."

"Clang-!"

As the door handle continues to open,

The next room appeared in front of Javier and the other two. It was an entertainment bar just now, but this one was a renovation studio. Many machine lathes were piled here, seemingly used to process some objects. There were also some defective carvings on the ground.

In the corner of this workbench,

There were several heavy steel clamps, each clamped with a stone slab. It was one of the three stone slabs that Javier and his companions were looking for.

The Unity Slate has already been obtained, and now with the Obedience Slate, the only thing left is the Discipline Slate to complete the collection. The process is not particularly difficult, but the Obedience Slate is stuck tightly on the steel ruler clamp, making it very difficult to remove. Forcibly removing it will break the slate.

Javier and his two companions searched the modification workshop for a long time before they found an iron handle to pry open the steel caliper and took down the obedient stone slab. The rest... they just needed to find the last stone slab -

After receiving the stone tablet, he returned to the lobby of the institute. There was a second Knight's Door that could be opened. The previous Knight's Door was located in the conference room and led to the emergency passage and Marcus' office.

This new Knight's Door leads to the outside of the institute and is a back door. So if you can run outside, can you escape from the institute?

Do not……

Although they said so, they were actually helpless in the actual investigation, because there was a high iron fence blocking the outdoor space leading to the Knight's Gate, and they could not get out at all. In addition, the bridge of the institute was damaged and broken. Even if they ran out, they were still trapped in the institute.

Furthermore,

There are still many things in the institute that Javier and his two companions need to explore.

They must find strong evidence inside to prove the evil deeds of the Umbrella Corporation, so Javier and the other two cannot leave for the time being. Since they cannot escape head-on, perhaps they can leave through other passages of the institute.

"and many more……"
