Chapter 21:

Three hours went by quickly, Eddie left Jill's apartment while humming a song. Initially, there was a training schedule for Jill today. Still, because her 'condition' was not good, she asked Albert Wesker for permission.

The reason? Of course, she felt tired and needed to rest. *Cough* Eddie had taken her virginity, so she needed to recover her stamina and body first.

Eddie kept humming while walking towards a place, he wanted to go to Raccoon City Underground Laboratory. However, while he was busy walking, he was suddenly approached by a person who looked like a secretary; that person was none other than the secretary of the mayor of Raccoon City.

"Good evening, Mr. Eddie; sorry to interrupt your time, mayor Michael Warren would like to invite you to his office. If you wish, please follow me; he wants to discuss some personal matters with you."

The secretary asked politely. To be honest, Eddie was satisfied with his attitude.

Eddie stopped walking, after which he said: "Warren? I don't really know him, but forget it. Please lead the way." Eddie felt a little surprised; this secretary meant a man named Michael Warren, right? He didn't really know the man, heck; he wasn't even that familiar with the people who lived in Raccoon City.

The only people he knew well enough personally were no more than Alex Wesker and Jill Valentine.

***

Michael Warren's personal space is inside a luxurious modern office building on the top floor.

The building was built using investment money from Umbrella group and Raccoon City resident taxes, so it's no wonder the installation looks very luxurious. With almost unlimited investment money, the mayor can build a building as grand as he wants.

A middle-aged man in white is seen sitting behind a desk; he is looking at the city from the highest point of the building.

Seeing the Raccoon city he had worked so hard for made him feel proud.

"Excuse me, mayor. Dr. Eddie has come." The secretary said as he knocked on the door several times.

Eddie and the secretary immediately entered.

"Pour two cups of tea for Dr. Eddie; make sure to take it from the most expensive brand."

"Also, please cancel all today's meetings."

Mayor Warren said as he ordered his secretary.

After that, he greeted Eddie with a warm smile.

"Haha, welcome, Dr. Eddie, please have a seat, have a seat."

Michael Warren is indeed a reliable person in communication; with his attitude like this, it's no wonder so many investors are willing to invest in him.

Eddie smiled back, nodding his head.

The secretary immediately poured two cups of tea, after which he left the room.

"Hello, mayor Michael, is there something you need to call me personally? If I'm not mistaken, haven't we met at all, except today, of course."

Eddie asked politely.

"Uh... Of course, of course."

"I am an acquaintance of your uncle, Dr. Marcus." If you don't mind, you can think of me as your second uncle, hahaha."

Benjamin's hidden camera contains corruption between him and a high-ranking police officer named Brian Irons.

If that evidence leaked out to the public, it would be bad news for him. This is absolutely unacceptable!

***

Eddie's brow furrowed even more after Eddie came out of the office. He knew that the camera Michael aimed for contained bad things between Michael and other people in the 'elite' circle. He didn't want to be involved in this problem, especially at critical times when an outbreak would occur.

'Brian Irons.' Eddie mumbled in disgust, speaking of this person, who he knew was nothing more than a lunatic with a twisted brain. The man has a perverted obsession that wants to turn everyone into an inhuman work of art.

Eddie wanted to get rid of that person right away, but not now... Now is not the right time.

Accompanied by two heavily armed guards who had been assigned by Michael. Eddie grabbed the phone and immediately called Katherine.

***

In the City Park.

There are only a few beautiful places like this city park in raccoon city. It's a very suitable place for refreshing or just taking a walk with a partner.

In the distance, a beautiful young woman with long blonde hair was seen. The woman was wearing a white dress and high heels; she looked pretty anxious, looking left and right from time to time.

Eddie walked closer to the girl; two bodyguards followed pretty fast behind him.

"Hello, you must be Katherine; my name is Eddie."

"I wanted to ask, do you know a person named Benjamin?"

Katherine looked at Eddie, she asked. "What's your business with Benjamin?" She said curiously; from her short answer, it was clear that this young woman knew a man named Benjamin.

"Recently, I found out that a paper I've been working on for months suddenly appeared in public; I haven't even released it yet!"

"It seems that there was a man named Benjamin who secretly took pictures of my paper, after which he released the copy without my permission. Which won him an award."

Katherine, who heard this, was so shocked she shook her head over and over while trying to deny Eddie's accusations against the man she liked. "No way, he's not that kind of person. He's kind and understanding; there's no way he could do something dirty like what you say!"

"Hey, calm down; I'm not accusing you. So don't scream; it's not suitable for a beautiful woman like you."

"I was just asking if you knew him or not, that's all. If it is true that he is a good man as you say, then we can prove it together."

"As you know, writing a paper is a very time-consuming thing. To steal it from me like nothing happened is a very despicable thing! What's more, he's claiming an award that should be mine."

Eddie said with a heavy sigh...

This was something he had planned; of course, it was all a lie. But he had confirmed that this plan would work 100%

Moreover, his acting is fantastic, so everything is under his control.
