"I Can Chat Too, I Can Hit It Off Too!"

Shi Ya's expression changed. He instantly realized something was wrong, but his body had no time to react. He watched helplessly as the bullets bizarrely curved around the shield, struck the same spot, and shattered the energy barrier.

Splat!

The remaining bullets pierced Shi Ya's head. The tremendous force blew apart half his skull like a watermelon, and his body collapsed to the ground, his eyes still wide in death.

The string of sudden changes stunned everyone. Alice reacted first, springing up and driving her knee hard between Major Cain's legs.

"Aaaahhh!" Major Cain let out a heart-rending scream.

The two shield-bearing guards hurriedly turned around, while Carlos also made his move, rising and tackling one of them to the ground.

Xiao Miao erupted with terrifying speed in an instant. He rushed into the cabin, grabbed the last shield-bearing guard, and violently twisted his arm, turning the man's head 180 degrees. Carlos then shifted aside, and Xiao Miao stepped forward and crushed the enemy's throat beneath his foot.

With that, Umbrella Corporation's entire special operations team was wiped out!

Major Cain clutched his crotch and kept gasping. Seeing Xiao Miao approach, he forced himself to raise his head through the pain. "Why cooperate with Alice? Umbrella is clearly the best partner. Let me go, and I guarantee you'll gain a position higher than Yashi's!"

Xiao Miao knew he was referring to the Travelers of All Heavens. He shook his head calmly. "Who told you to start off by trying to kill us? By the time you wanted to cooperate, it was already too late. Besides, Alice and I get along very well. Our conversations have been quite... deep."

Major Cain hurriedly shouted, "I can chat too! I can hit it off too!"

"Ugh, don't come near me. I'm not interested in men." Xiao Miao dry-heaved and raised his gun at Major Cain.

"Wait!" Major Cain's pupils contracted.

Bang!

The bullet entered his head, leaving a bloody hole in Major Cain's forehead as brain matter sprayed from the back of his skull, filling the air with a foul stench.

Major Cain coughed blood, his eyes bulging as he glared fiercely at Xiao Miao. His mouth kept opening and closing as though he wanted to say something, but blood clogged his throat.

As the rise and fall of his chest gradually stopped, ambition, conspiracy, and power vanished along with Major Cain's life, leaving behind nothing but a pile of mangled flesh.

Xiao Miao threw Major Cain's corpse out of the aircraft. After the nuclear explosion, this pile of flesh would be completely erased as well.

Xiao Miao set down the ZF-1 and freed everyone from their handcuffs one by one. He did not need a key—his strength was great enough now that he could easily crush the clasps with his bare hands.

A fragrant breeze hit him as the newly freed Alice threw herself into Xiao Miao's arms and gave him a big hug. "I knew you could do it."

Xiao Miao raised a brow. "Whether I can do it or not, you should have experienced it firsthand in the confession booth."

Alice was not embarrassed in the slightest. She met Xiao Miao's gaze openly, teasingly ran her tongue around her red lips, and made her intentions unmistakable.

Dr. Ashford drove his electric wheelchair closer, his hands constantly tapping at the keyboard in front of him as he repeatedly confirmed a message. Then he raised his head, his expression grave. "Ladies and gentlemen, we need to hurry."

Xiao Miao lowered his head to look at the computer screen. "Because of the nuclear missile?"

Dr. Ashford nodded. "Headquarters received word of Major Cain's death and launched the missile early. We only have five minutes left."

He had been brought here by Major Cain. In the original plot, Major Cain casually killed him, and after he turned into a zombie, he bit Major Cain to death himself. Karma truly came full circle.

Now that Xiao Miao had intervened, Dr. Ashford had instead changed his fate against all odds and could continue living with his precious daughter.

Time was pressing. Xiao Miao handed the ZF-1 to Alice. "Whatever you do, don't press the red button. That's the self-destruct sequence. Keep starting the aircraft. I'm going to get Jill!"

Alice nodded. Having seen the bullets curve through the air, she understood how valuable the weapon was. She took the ZF-1 and stood guard with it.

Carlos climbed into the cockpit while Xiao Miao left the cabin and sprinted toward City Hall with long strides.

There were sixty seconds left on the character card's duration. That was enough.

Nemesis had seemed somewhat cumbersome in the movie, but in truth, his explosive power and speed were both exceptional. Xiao Miao sprinted up the fire escape and encountered Jill on the sixteenth floor.

"Xiao Miao?" Jill blurted out his name, delight overflowing from her face.

She had not expected him to come back for her.

"Less talk. Get on my back." Xiao Miao immediately turned around, crouched halfway down, and tilted his head to signal her.

Jill understood instantly. She climbed onto Xiao Miao's back, wrapped her arms around his neck, and extended her two straight, full thighs from his sides to the front. Crossing her feet, she tightly clamped his waist.

"Ready."

At her words, Xiao Miao leaped forward and jumped once more into the vertical shaft in the middle of the spiral staircase. Every two floors, he grabbed the edge of the stairs with both hands to slow his descent.

Xiao Miao's reckless action startled Jill. The instant the sensation of weightlessness hit, her heartbeat accelerated sharply and adrenaline surged through her. A subtle feeling rose from the depths of her heart, sending shivers from the top of her head to the tips of her toes.

Her toes curled inside her tactical boots. Every time Xiao Miao braced himself and released his grip again, Jill's heartbeat sped up and slowed down with him. The unprecedented thrill made her scalp tingle.

She caught the scent of sweat on Xiao Miao's body, and a flood of male hormones seemed to rush into her mind. Jill tried her best not to let her thoughts wander, but her feminine instincts made her swallow secretly.

Some things could not be controlled. When the atmosphere was right, the body thought for you.

Eight seconds later, the two landed safely. The feeling of weightlessness vanished, and Jill unexpectedly felt a flicker of disappointment deep inside her heart before it disappeared in an instant.

The breeze slipped into her blue bodycon dress, and the faint chill made Jill's cheeks flush.

Soaked~~~

Xiao Miao carried Jill toward the helicopter, the wounds scraped open on his palms healing at a visible rate.

By the time they ran into the helicopter cabin, Xiao Miao had fully recovered. He turned sideways and set Jill down.

Jill's legs went weak, and she nearly lost her footing. Fortunately, her body was well-trained; she regained her balance the next second and quickly headed for the cockpit.

She could fly a helicopter too.

Xiao Miao took the ZF-1 from Alice. Everyone took their seats and fastened their seat belts. Even Dr. Ashford hurriedly secured his wheelchair against the cabin wall, softly comforting Angela beside him.

Carlos and Jill pressed a string of buttons on the helicopter's control panel. The rotor speed increased, and just as the helicopter was about to take off, two Little Bird helicopters suddenly emerged from behind City Hall.

"Drop your weapons and surrender immediately!" one of the Little Bird pilots began broadcasting.

At the same time, Jill's voice came from the cockpit. "We're locked on!"

The transport helicopter had no weapons. Jill and Carlos wanted to fight back, but there was nothing they could do.

"I'll repeat myself one last time: drop your weapons and surrender immediately! Otherwise, we will open fire!" the Little Bird pilot issued his final ultimatum.

The atmosphere in the cabin immediately became tense.

Even Alice was helpless in this situation. She had not yet awakened her telekinetic abilities, and against firearms, she could only avoid their edge.

Xiao Miao: "..."

Come on, the nuclear missile was about to arrive!

How much did Umbrella Corporation pay you people each month? Did you really need to work this hard?

He glanced at the character card's countdown and shouted in a low voice, "Take off normally. Leave the cabin door open for me!"

With that, before Jill and Carlos could respond, he tore free of the cumbersome seat belt with brute force, clutched the ZF-1, and jumped out of the cabin.

"Xiao Miao!" Alice instinctively reached out to grab him, but her seat belt yanked her back into her chair. Gritting her teeth, she hurriedly lowered her head to unfasten it.
