Umbrella, The Light of Humanity

Inside the elevator of the headquarters building.

"." Ziegler was speechless looking at the constantly changing display screen.

The two agents in suits who took the elevator with her kept silent while staring at the elevator door.

Although it was the first time to come to the headquarters, Ziegler was not entangled at the moment.

Because before that, she was invited by Umbrella to participate in several biological experiments, but she has been refusing to become a formal researcher.

And when the elevator came to a complete stop and took her to the top floor, seeing the elevator doors in front of her gradually open, and seeing several dark angels outside the elevator who were keeping vigilance in the lobby, surprise instantly replaced her calmness just now.

robot?

The first impression the dark angels gave her was a robot.

Shocked, she stepped out of the elevator to observe, and found that there was a gap between the heights of the dark angels that could be discerned with the naked eye.

This shows that the dark angels are not so-called robots at all, but "humans" wearing fully wrapped power armor.

A dark angel who was approaching her and unfolding the power armor helmet further confirmed the conclusion that the dark angels are "human beings", but her surprise did not decrease in the slightest.

As an expert in the fields of biology and medicine, Ziegler understood what these dark angels represented, but she quickly digested and accepted this fact.

After all, this is Umbrella's headquarters, and no matter what subverts common sense, Ziegler will not find it too strange.

She and the two agents came to the center of the hall.

The dark angel who unfolded his helmet also walked in front of them and said in a deep voice, "Please follow me, Doctor Cage."

"it is good."

Next, the two agents stopped in the central hall, while Ziegler continued with the dark angel and arrived at the door of the top office.

walk in.

The first thing that catches the eye is a row of floor-to-ceiling windows facing the door with an excellent view overlooking the entire city.

Then came the two artificial intelligences whose pupils glowed faintly standing in the middle of the office, and...

Four meters three Leon.

"."

Fortunately, Ziegler's psychological endurance is strong, and his expression is as usual, without showing the slightest gaffe.

Finally, she focused on Sui Bian who was sitting on the office chair with a faint smile on his face.

From leaving the elevator, to the center of this office.

Ziegler understood that the "young" man sitting not far in front of her was the real controller of Umbrella, and those members of the board of directors on the surface were all just an illusion given to the public.

"Hello."

At this time, Sui Bian introduced himself: "My surname is Sui. It's an honor to meet you, Dr. Cage."

"It should be my honor to meet you, Mr. Sui." Ziegler replied politely, and then expressed her doubts: "I don't know why Mr. Sui called me here...?"

Sui Bian, who heard the question, did not answer immediately, but lightly waved his left hand, showing a holographic screen on the desk. After glancing at the content on the screen, Ziegler asked back:

""Nanobiotechnology and the Future of Humanity", being able to write such a full-score graduation thesis shows that you are more suitable for the research field, but you refused to be a researcher in the company and chose to stay in Los Angeles as a doctor.

Presumably it was for your mother's sake, am I right, Dr. Cage. "

"Yes." Ziegler generously admitted.

There is no need to hide this point, because she knows that as Sui Bian, she has known about their family's experience and past, and even knows her own family better than her.

So I declined in advance and said: "Mr. Sui, I am very grateful for Umbrella's help to our family. Being a researcher means getting together less and leaving more, and I want to be with my mother more, so I hope you can understand, sir." this point."

"Of course I understand, but the reason I called you here today is because of your father, Second Lieutenant Cage."

"My father?" Ziegler was taken aback, his expression a little dull.

Among all her guesses, it didn't include that her memory was blurred and she had forgotten what kind of father she was.

"Doctor Cage." Sensing the mood swings, Sui Bian continued to ask Ziegler:

"I don't know what you think about the Shehba incident in Syria twelve years ago."

"Sheheba..." Ziegler, who hadn't slowed down yet, blurted out, "A...a tragic massacre."

Shehba massacre.

Ziegler was deeply impressed by this event, because twelve years ago, in 2000, she learned from her mother that her father had died of illness in prison.

In fact, Ziegler guessed that "father died of illness" was a kind of white lie of his mother after his family was no longer short of money and enjoyed various benefits of Umbrella Hospital.

Mother never said the truth, but Ziegler knew that her father had reached a deal with the government and Umbrella, so she thanked Umbrella to Sui Bian.

Because of this, she was also deeply impressed by the "Shehba massacre" incident that was continuously broadcast in the news. Until now, she can still find some relevant information on the Internet.

The anti-government forces who occupied Sheheba in the first place carried out indiscriminate massacres and cremated the bodies of men, women and children living in Sheheba because of their religious beliefs.

Although the government forces, in cooperation with the US troops stationed in Syria, successfully recaptured Shehba from the anti-government forces, they could not save tens of thousands of lives.

But Ziegler, who gradually regained his composure, felt more and more that the Sheheba incident was not that simple, and it was definitely related to her father, otherwise Sui Bian would not suddenly ask her for her opinion.

Before she could express her doubts, Sui Bian waved her left hand lightly again, forming several holographic screens in front of her.

And said: "This is the real situation at that time, take a look."

Hearing this, Ziegler began to consult the text, pictures and video files on the screen.

After reading the file for a few minutes, Ziegler learned that there were "demons" and "abnormal phenomena" in the world, and he could no longer maintain a calm face.

However, she still didn't exclaim too much. At the same time, she finally figured out what kind of deal her father had made.

Thinking that his father was willing to die for them, Ziegler's heart ached unbearably, and he forced himself not to break down and cry loudly.

"Your father is not dead, he is still alive."

?

A reminder from Sui Bian made Ziegler realize that the new file content was being played on the screen.

As she continued to check, her expression became more and more "wonderful".

Knowing that her father was not dead, but was slaughtering demons in hell, Ziegler only felt that her mood at the moment was like riding a roller coaster, jumping directly from the darkest ravine to the clear sky.

Get in a good mood.

"Thank you for letting me know the truth, Mr. Sui." Ziegler, whose eyes were still slightly red, said sincerely to Sui Bian.

"This is what I should do, no thanks, but I should say thank you."

Sui Bian got up and left his seat, walked around the desk, walked slowly not far from Ziegler, and said solemnly, "Thank you for your father's sacrifice and dedication."
