"Halson, no one begged you to drink!"

Suddenly, a roar accompanied by Russian emphasis came from behind Hicks and Hudson.

The two turned around.

The layout of the bedroom is also clear at a glance.

Long rectangle, forty square meters in size.

The three upper single beds are against the left wall, and there are respective wardrobes and desks under the table.

On the right wall are three sets of erected individual soldier systems, weapon racks holding M41A and M56 firearms, and two boxes of ammunition and equipment.

In the center of the room is a square table and wooden chairs.

On the left side of the end wall is the door, and on the right side is the bathroom equipped with a rain shower.

Next to the bathroom is a simple kitchen, equipped with a sink, cabinets, a small refrigerator and an electric stove with two pots.

Gina, who was wearing a black sling on her upper body and whose figure was obviously stronger than that of ordinary women, was standing behind the electric stove preparing breakfast for the three of them.

It seemed that he was extremely unhappy with Hudson's complaints. He clenched his fist with his right hand and said angrily, "If you don't like drinking it, spit it out!"

"Okay."

At this time, Hicks walked to the middle of the two of them, took a sip of the coffee in his hand, and frowned slightly.

Then he asked, "Gina, what is for breakfast today?"

"As usual, it's fried eggs, luncheon meat, and boiled peas." Gina's tone was calmer.

After all, no matter how good Hicks is, he is still her superior commander.

"Hey... this is a woman." Hudson shook his head helplessly, and sat down at the square table with Hicks.

It's just that Hudson's face no longer looked carefree, but turned serious and said:

"Hicks, in the past two days... the atmosphere in the entire colony has not been right. There are more and more people chattering, and even violent incidents have suddenly increased.

What's even stranger is that when we arrived at the scene of the incident, the miners were like..."

"There is something being hidden from us." Hicks took over the conversation, his eyes filled with chills, and said:

"The asteroid colony is not monitored by Serena, and the control is also in the hands of the chief's gang."

"Is it possible that the chief discovered something but didn't want to tell us? He secretly transported it back to Earth?" Gina, who brought the dinner plate over, speculated.

"It's very possible." Hicks seemed to agree with this view.

"Whatever, just rush into Control Room later and ask the chief's gang directly!" Hudson held the spoon tightly and waved it.

"Hudson." Gina rolled his eyes while sitting at the square table. Hudson said:

"Use your brain, okay? This is not in line with the company's procedures at all. We should notify the company first and send technicians and support troops here to conduct a comprehensive search."

"No." However, Hicks shook his hand. Vision glanced at his two men and said in a deep voice:

"Hudson is right. If the chief really discovers certain items, they will definitely try their best to hinder the company's investigation."

"Why... why..."

Hudson scratched his head and asked. His suggestion just now was purely to vent, and he never expected that it would actually be adopted.

Gina also looked at Hicks with a puzzled expression.

"..." Hicks looked at these two extremely well-matched subordinates and felt speechless, but he still patiently explained:

"The company's business has already monopolized many aspects, overwhelming its peers. Suppose Chief Corporation discovered some abnormal phenomenon on this asteroid...

Then they will definitely hide it and use it to improve their own technological level."

"Eh..." Hearing this, Hudson said with a look of disgust, "You don't have the level of our Umbrella's Technology, but you dare to study abnormal phenomena casually? You are not afraid of death."

"Until we confirm enough evidence, we should not notify the company to send additional personnel for the time being, so as not to alarm the chief." Hicks said.

Then he looked at the weapons displayed nearby, his face showed uncontrollable pride and confidence, and he said softly:

"The equipment of the three of us alone is enough to deal with those shabby chief security guards. Besides, there is Umbrella behind us."

"Haha! That's not true, we Marine Corps are no longer the fourth-class people we used to be!" Hudson laughed loudly.

However, Gina, who had just joined Umbrella for less than half a year, was slightly confused and asked, "Why is Marine Corps a fourth-class person?"

"..."(x2)

.

After that, the three people quickly finished their daily breakfast, put on Individual Equipment and Mechanical Skeleton, and loaded their weapons with each other's help.

Gina, the hand of Heavy Machine Gun, also hangs the M56 on the robotic arm on his waist.

Even if Chief Corporation didn't hide any abnormal phenomena, Umbrella wouldn't blame them if Hicks and the other three made a mistake.

Because maintaining a high degree of vigilance at all times is the most basic quality of every Umbrella employee, and they must also have strong enough crisis prevention and handling.

The three heavily armed people left the dormitory with a combination lock and walked towards Control Room in the colony.

The lights embedded in the rock wall would flicker from time to time, perhaps due to quality issues or something.

It makes the colony in the confined space look even weirder and darker.

Come to the living area.

The space becomes wider.

The layout of the house and the three-person dormitory are similar. They are both holes dug out of the asteroid rock wall, but the decoration is definitely better than their dormitory.

Relatives of miners also followed and settled on FJ336 to cope with their psychological and physical loneliness.

But the living area at this time was not as lively as usual, but... extremely bloody, with blood stains from palms everywhere on the walls.

The miners' relatives seemed to suddenly go crazy collectively, using various tools in their hands to commit suicide.

What made the three people even more worried was that when they looked at the first house on the left, they saw through the glass window a mother who suddenly threw her infant baby to the ground.

Not only that, she also picked up the fruit knife on the table and raised her hand, obviously intending to stab it into her abdomen.

!

Seeing this, Hicks immediately ordered, "Quick! Stop her!"

"Yes!"(x2)

The three of them quickly ran to the door of the house and used the power of Mechanical Skeleton to kick the door open, but they were still a step too late.

"Puff-!" A sound came out.

The fruit knife easily tore through the apron and clothes, and penetrated straight into the mother's abdomen. Then her body shook weakly and then collapsed to the ground.

"No!"

Hicks, who was rushing at the front, roared, quickly supported the mother and knelt beside her, with a painful expression on her face:

"Hudson! Hurry! Use biofoam on her! Gina! Check the child's status!"

"Yes!" Hudson rushed over and was also half-kneeling on the ground, ready to take out the can of biofoam in his pocket to stop the mother's bleeding.

"Hey." Gina, who was checking the baby on the ground, sighed heavily and shook his head, "Sir... it's too late..."

However, the mother showed a crazy expression, twisted the fruit knife inserted into her abdomen, and shouted:

"They! They want our bodies!"
