Umbrella, The Light of Humanity

Porcelainization?

Yes, please look.

As soon as the two spoke, the soft curtain showed the details of the victim's wound.

Just look at the thigh of a male deceased who was violently amputated. The amputation site looks like broken glass or porcelain, with edges and corners.

The human blood in the wound was replaced by some kind of black viscous liquid, and the bones showed the appearance of broken porcelain.

This weird change only occurred near the wound, while other parts of the victim remained normal.

Officer Kennedy... In this world, is there any substance that can make people porcelain? Brea asked suspiciously.

As soon as the forensic doctor gave the autopsy report, the Director of Venice realized that this fact must be concealed, so only a few people knew the details.

But the insiders, including forensic doctors, were very confused. What could cause such a wound?

Leon shook his head lightly.

He knew that this must be caused by an abnormal phenomenon, but he didn't know what it was, and it needed to be investigated.

Any surveillance footage or witnesses? Leon asked.

Brea also shook his head and said: So far, no witnesses have been found, and all the crime scenes are monitored in a blind spot, so we haven't captured any useful footage.

To put it bluntly, what you saw just now is what we have investigated in the past few days.

At the end, Brea's tone was rather helpless.

Well... I see. Leon stood up with a deep groan, and walked towards the meeting room.

And asked: Can you take me to see the victim's body?

No problem. Brea had nothing to stop him.

The next two people came to the underground parking lot of the police station. Brea drove a police car and drove Lyon towards the police warehouse.

Came to the warehouse in the suburbs.

Go straight to the morgue.

Brea asked the forensic doctor who was performing the autopsy to empty the morgue of unnecessary assistants, and then showed Lyon all the victims.

See here.

Lyon took photos of all the victims for the reason of reporting to his superiors, and uploaded them to Umbrella's European headquarters.

…

Shortly after.

In the office on the second floor of the hive.

Twenty-four people can be killed in one night? And the body is porcelain, um...

Sui Bian, who was sitting behind the desk, browsed through the photos taken by Leon, muttering to himself without a clue.

He tried to recall the movies and games from his previous life.

In the end, he sighed helplessly, he didn't know what kind of abnormal phenomenon it was caused by.

Most likely native.

After all, in Rockford Island, a large number of non-threatening (first-level) abnormal phenomena have been controlled, many of which Sui Bian has never heard of.

Of course, controlling these abnormal phenomena will not only help Umbrella's research and analysis, Sui Bian's points will also increase.

The current point count is 2740.

Most of these non-threatening abnormal phenomena are only worth 4 or 50 points.

Nearly 3,000 points sounds like a lot, but what he wants to exchange for is really too expensive.

Last month, the mall posted the Hyperion in StarCraft, which requires 50,000 points to exchange.

Yes, with the Hyperion, Umbrella's technology will have a qualitative leap, allowing human beings to easily break free from the shackles of the earth's gravity.

But with 50,000 points, Sui Bian could only catch up.

However, Sui Bian also read a cryptic message from it.

That is, among the abnormal phenomena, it is very likely that there are guys worth thousands or tens of thousands of points.

Otherwise, the system will not release Huberian worth 50,000.

What's more, the existence of the iron-blooded race shows that in the future, even in the near future, human beings will not only have to face so-called abnormal phenomena, but also face hostile alien races.

Human beings are like a solitary boat on the sea, and at any moment, there is the possibility of eternal doom.

But Sui Bian and Umbrella are trying to delay and prevent this possibility.

'Forget it, let's see what good things can be produced in the next month. Before, my face was too dark, and there was no good stuff at all. '

Sui Bian regained his composure and stopped thinking about the illusory future of human beings.

Take it easy.

He said to the Red Queen again: Notify Captain Price who is stationed at the headquarters in Paris, and ask him and 141 to pay more attention to the movements of Venice.

Yes, sir. The Red Queen responded through the computer speaker.

After the completion of Task Force 141, Sui Bian ordered 141 to be stationed at the headquarters in Paris, responsible for assisting armed security in controlling and reducing abnormal phenomena in the first place.

With 141 garrisoned, and Umbrella's involution problem almost eradicated, the Omicron led by the lieutenant returned to the brood.

…

August 29.

Venice.

Local clock: 20:21.

City center of Marghera.

Next to the roundabout of the main road numbered SS309.

Brea drove the police car, drove Lyon out of the roundabout, and finally parked in the parking lot in front of a coffee shop.

The two got out of the car, went to the cafe to buy two cups of coffee, and then went to the sidewalk 200 meters away from the cafe.

Here is where we found the last deceased.

Brea blew on the steaming coffee, took a sip, and pointed to the road beside a green tree with his left hand.

In order to minimize the impact of this incident, the police did not set up a cordon here, and did not mark the location of the victim's death on the ground, as well as his actions at the time of death.

Well, thank you. Leon, who had already drank half of his coffee, replied softly.

two days.

Leon and Brea traveled almost all over the city of Magra, surveying the places where all the victims were found, and they visited suspicious places nearby.

After the suspects or suspects committed the crime in the early hours of the 25th, they seemed to disappear.

In order to avoid the possibility of continuing to increase the death toll, Lyon must find out what this abnormal phenomenon is as soon as possible.

Leon, have you noticed any difference? Seeing Leon's pensive look, Breya couldn't help asking.

After working as partners for two days, the relationship between the two is no longer as unfamiliar as before.

... Leon didn't reply, but turned his gaze to the building not far away.

A large mall called Nave de Vero.

Seeing this, Brea first glanced at the Rowe Shopping Center, and then said to Leon:

It's expected to open in early November, and we only found shelves that the merchants had prepared in advance, display items and the like, and some merchants hadn't finished the decoration.

It's still more than two months away from opening... Leon turned to Brea: That means the monitoring system there is still not perfect, right?

That's right, after the serial murders on the 25th, the investors in the shopping mall also increased the security patrols.

Even if we assume that the suspect hid in the shopping mall before committing the crime, our police also thoroughly searched the shopping mall, even the cracks in the walls, and found no hiding place of the suspect at all. Brea replied.

Then I'm more sure that the suspect never left the mall from the beginning to the end. Leon said firmly.
