Zongman: Beginning and Snow under the Rain Escape from Raccoon City

Hawaii, Oahu, Honolulu Harbor, also known as Honolulu Harbor.

"It seems like nothing's different."

After disembarking, Yukino Yukinoshita looked around curiously. This place seemed to be the same as the Hawaii she had visited before.

Ye Hai casually placed a white woven sun hat, which he had just bought from a roadside stall, on Yukino Yukinoshita's head. He glanced around and said, "Really? I've never been here before anyway."

"I don't know what Hawaii is like, but the scenery is definitely beautiful."

"It's just that the sun is a bit strong."

Yukino Yukinoshita slapped away Hakai's hand that was messing with her head with some displeasure, then straightened her white sun hat and said, "After all, Europeans and Americans love to sunbathe, so an island that they like must be a place with plenty of sunshine."

"Speaking of which, I can't see any warships from Pearl Harbor at all. On the map, Pearl Harbor is right next to Honolulu."

Ye Hai peered around curiously, wanting to see the US aircraft carrier.

As the core area at the center of the Pacific Ocean, Pearl Harbor is practically the permanent home of US aircraft carrier battle groups.

Yukino Yukinoshita sighed helplessly: "Although it looks close on the map, it's actually still about ten kilometers away."

"Look over there."

Yukino Yukinoshita pointed to a large white sphere in the distance.

"what is that?"

The last time Ye Hai saw a building of this shape was at an observatory.

"That's the Pearl Harbor radar station. It's the only Pearl Harbor building we can see from our current location."

Yukino Yukinoshita explained that she seemed quite familiar with Hawaii.

"Oh……"

Ye Hai nodded knowingly.

A dozen days later, on the beach, under a parasol.

"Another calm and peaceful day."

Ye Hai was comfortably lounging on a beach chair, drinking juice, wearing the same baggy shorts as Patrick Star, while Yukino Yukinoshita was wearing sunglasses and the same white dress she had worn before, lying on the beach chair next to him.

Ye Hai could never take his eyes off her fair and slender legs.

Yukino Yukinoshita has no extra embellishments on her body, not even nail polish or anything that other girls like to wear, but it is this pure and jade-like appearance that gives her a breathtaking allure.

"I spent more time in Hawaii this time than I did when I was a primary school student."

Yukino Yukinoshita seemed to notice Ye Hai's gaze, and a slight smile appeared on her lips, but she did not shrink away from Ye Hai's gaze.

She reached out and fiddled with the radio lying on the beach. The music channels here weren't really to her liking; she'd rather switch to other news or story channels.

"Gil Valentine and Carlos Oliveira are terrorists!"

"It was because they damaged the nuclear power plant facilities in Raccoon City that a nuclear leak occurred, which ultimately led to the massive explosion!"

"They are sinners in history!"

"The police are doing everything they can to apprehend them."

"Those videos online are completely unreliable; they are all deliberately created to spread panic."

"As news media, we should strongly condemn such acts of terrorism, rather than become accomplices in the spread of terrorist videos."

"While the tragedy in Raccoon City is heartbreaking, we are also grateful to see that Umbrella Corporation, as a responsible company, has fully participated in the rescue efforts during this incident."

"A considerable number of ordinary citizens have been rescued by emergency rescue personnel under the umbrella of the protection agency. Now let's interview a spokesperson for the protection agency..."

Ye Hai and Yukino Yukinoshita stared in astonishment at the voice coming from the radio.

I never expected to hear Jill and the others' names again under these circumstances.

Chapter 22 The Unusual Movements at Pearl Harbor

"The Umbrella Corporation rescued people? Are Jill and the others terrorists?"

Ye Hai scoffed dismissively, "This ability to distort the truth truly befits the free media; they have so much freedom of speech."

"So free that they don't even need to care about the truth."

Yukino Yukinoshita frowned slightly and said, "Wanted? Wouldn't that put Gilles and the others in great danger?"

The Yukino family is not an ordinary family in Japan. As the second daughter of a leading real estate family in Chiba, a capitalist country, Yukino Yukinoshita was not at all surprised by the media's attitude.

Although there are still some media professionals who adhere to their principles of independent and truthful reporting, the objective fact remains that most media outlets have become mere mouthpieces for capital and authority.

Yukino Yukinoshita is now more concerned about the safety of Gilles and the others.

Especially Jill, whose performance that day was quite outstanding in Yukino Yukinoshita's eyes. In Yukino Yukinoshita's eyes, Jill was simply a perfect policeman.

She really didn't want such an excellent and persistent police officer to be harmed or even imprisoned.

"Don't worry, they'll be fine."

Ye Hai patted Yukino Yukinoshita's hand reassuringly.

Jill still has a role in the later parts, so he believes Jill will be fine.

"hope so."

Yukino Yukinoshita sighed. She didn't know the plot and just thought that Ye Hai was comforting her.

"quack--"

A black bird flew across the sky.

That sounded awful.

Ye Hai couldn't help but glance at her; hmm, she was quite ugly.

What kind of bird is this?

Since taking the gene-enhancing drug, Ye Hai's eyesight has also been greatly improved.

Although the bird was two or three hundred meters away from him, he could still see its appearance clearly in an instant, even its feathers.

Black feathers, sharp claws, and eyes covered in red blood vessels.

It looks pretty scary, like a zombie's eyeballs.

and many more.

Zombie eyeballs?

Ye Hai's gaze sharpened instantly; animals in the Resident Evil world could also be infected by the zombie virus.

Could it be that this bird flew across half the Pacific Ocean from the mainland?

"call out--"

A stone the size of a fingertip accelerated in an instant and then accurately hit the bird's head flying in mid-air.

There were no screams, only a few feathers flying through the air, followed by a black shadow falling into the sea.

"what happened?"

Yukino Yukinoshita's gaze was also drawn over; these past few days, Ye Hai had been practicing telekinesis every day in the hotel.

Therefore, it's not surprising that Yukino Yukinoshita was able to discover that it was Umi who was controlling the stone.

"Just shooting a bird when I have nothing else to do."

Ye Hai said nonchalantly.

He figured it wouldn't be long before they returned to the main world, so it would be better for Yukino Yukinoshita to continue her relaxing vacation.

"Stop it."

Yukino Yukinoshita frowned and questioned with dissatisfaction, "You're not the kind of person who would hurt small animals casually, don't hide it from me."

Ye Hai scratched his head helplessly. Yukino Yukinoshita was really perceptive; nothing could be hidden from her.

Seeing that Yukino Yukinoshita wouldn't give up until she told the truth, Ye Hai had no choice but to confess: "That was a zombie bird just now."

Yukino Yukinoshita's azure eyes narrowed slightly: "I see..."

Having seen zombie dogs before, it's not surprising that zombie birds have appeared now.

Yukino Yukinoshita never expected that the zombie virus would reach Hawaii, located in the center of the Pacific Ocean, so quickly.

"urn----"

Just as Yukino Yukinoshita was lost in thought, a ship's horn, noticeably lower and more powerful than that of a regular cruise ship, with a hint of oppression, came from the sea.

When Ye Hai and Yukino Yukinoshita looked up, they discovered that an entire fleet had appeared on the once boundless sea.

“CVN-76…”

"Which aircraft carrier is this?"

Ye Hai's gaze was completely drawn to the largest aircraft carrier.

After all, men can't possibly dislike bigger ones.

"It came from Pearl Harbor."

Yukino Yukinoshita drew her conclusion after observing the fleet's course.

"What are they going to do? Could it be that the zombies on the American mainland are out of control and they need to deploy an aircraft carrier fleet to suppress them?"

Ye Hai stroked his chin and speculated.

But they soon knew for sure, as the island's loudspeakers began to blare: "Attention all Oahu residents and tourists!"

"Due to an unknown virus outbreak on Oahu, in order to ensure public safety, the Hawaii state government and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) have jointly decided to impose a complete lockdown on Oahu, effective immediately."

Hawaii is made up of several small islands, and Oahu is the most populous of them all, as well as the island where Ye Hai and his friends are located.

The broadcast continued.

"All transportation to and from the island is prohibited, and all flights, ferries, and private boats are suspended."

"No one may leave Oahu without permission."

"If you experience symptoms such as fever, difficulty breathing, or unusual rash, please call 911 immediately or the Hawaii Department of Health hotline xxx... A medical team will come to your home for testing. Do not go to the hospital on your own."

The people who were swimming and sunbathing on the beach looked at each other in astonishment, clearly puzzled by the sudden news.

No warning at all.

One second it's sunny and peaceful, the next second they tell you the island is closed.

Ye Hai frowned as he glanced at the return time of the Main God Space; there were still eight hours left.

Eight hours... nothing should go wrong, right?

Ye Hai thought uncertainly, after all, he had gotten through the past twenty-odd days peacefully, could it be that they were going to give him a big surprise on the last day?

The roar of the engine grew louder as it approached, and Ye Hai looked up at the sky.

Four fighter jets sped past his line of sight, their conical sonic boom clouds clearly visible at the edges of their wings. Each fighter jet's two engine nozzles emitted a blazing, dazzling orange-red afterburner flame, and Ye Hai could even see the Mach rings produced during afterburner combustion.

Where are they going?

Ye Hai asked a question subconsciously.

It couldn't possibly fly to the mainland, that's a bit too far. Does the F-15 have that much range?

Although Ye Hai doesn't know much about military matters, he can still recognize classic aircraft like the F-15, which has existed for decades in aviation history.

Yukino Yukinoshita tiptoed slightly to look around and then said, "That's the direction of Oshima."

To the east of Oahu are four smaller islands: Molokai, Lanai, Maui, and the Big Island of Hawaii, the largest island in the Hawaiian archipelago.
