Chapter 157 Umbrella Corporation
Luke frowned as he looked at the report Cook handed to him.
After asking Cook to continue investigating, he lit a cigarette after she left the office.
Then he called Uncle Chen.
Not long after, he received a message from Uncle Chen.
He exhaled slowly.
Fortunately, it is not a company invested by themselves, and the Umbrella company is not well-known and is not even listed.
Now Luke has the urge to go to Kamar-Taj to meet the Ancient One.
But he held back again.
Master Ancient One can foresee the future. Could it be that her actions were in the future she had seen, so she did not interfere?
After thinking about it, Luke couldn't come up with any good ideas, so he simply stopped thinking about it.
He took out his phone and called Mr. Qin.
"Grandpa, have you heard of a biopharmaceutical company called Umbrella?"
Mr. Qin didn't say anything, as if he was recalling the company Luke mentioned on the phone.
"No, what happened?"
"They are about to get into trouble. This company still has a lot of patented technologies. We can acquire them later and share the cake with others."
"I understand. I'll have someone prepare it."
After hanging up the phone with Mr. Qin, Luke began to look up relevant information about Umbrella.
They were not as powerful as the Umbrella Corporation that Luke remembered from his previous life.
It can even be said to be unknown.
Although it also started out as a medical biotechnology company, it is just one of many pharmaceutical companies.
Compared with the large pharmaceutical companies under the consortium, they do not stand out.
But Luke still found out about the news about the anti-cancer drug they claimed to be developing.
After making up his mind, Luke made some plans.
The next day, Luke asked all the team members to prepare to set off, with the destination being Grand Junction City.
This time they did not drive an armored vehicle, but three modified black Dodge Escalades.
The reason Luke gave was that it was a secret investigation and he couldn't be too high-profile.
The transport plane still flew to the airport in Grand Junction, and they needed to drive to Raccoon City.
Raccoon City is surrounded by mountains on three sides, with only one north-south road passing through it.
Luke did not choose to enter Raccoon City during the day, but quietly brought his team members here at night.
Luke did not book any hotel for this operation.
He asked the team members to live in the car throughout the trip.
When they arrived at the edge of Raccoon City, they left one car behind and took two cars into Raccoon City.
The target now is that transportation company.
Luke wants to take Cook to infiltrate the company to investigate the specific list of shipped items and the client.
The transport company is located in a warehouse area.
Erica is operating a drone to monitor the periphery.
Hobbs took Mulder and Chapman to guard the perimeter and be responsible for the response.
Luke took Cook with him to sneak into the company's office building.
The process went smoothly. This warehouse area was not a special area, and the security guards were all ordinary people, so they naturally could not stop Luke's team.
After checking computers throughout the company, Cook found the information he wanted on the warehouse manager's computer.
Back in the car, Cook successfully found the records of Umbrella's involvement based on the information.
With this evidence, Luke felt relieved.
Let Cook check Umbrella's information immediately.
The Umbrella Corporation in Raccoon City is nominally just an office.
But Cook discovered that the cash flow of Umbrella Corporation here was very large.
Luke thought for a long time and decided to go to Umbrella's office here to take a look.
Anyway, he already had evidence of Umbrella's illegal handling of chemical waste.
He also had a search warrant signed by a federal judge that Dougherty had given him a long time ago.
When Luke arrived at the Umbrella branch in Raccoon City, he was dumbfounded.
The place is deserted, and it looks like the people here have just evacuated.
Luke became increasingly worried about what was about to happen.
He took out Captain Jack's compass and looked at it.
He drove to the suburbs with the team members.
He came to a stop in front of the gate outside a manor.
It was pitch black inside, and the rustling of leaves in the mountain wind made it sound like a man-eating devil with its mouth wide open, waiting for the team to break in.
"Everyone, change your clothes."
The team members quickly put on combat uniforms and equipment in the car and took out their weapons.
This time, even Luke was no exception and also changed into combat equipment and clothing.
Mulder looked at Luke who had just changed his equipment and teased him with a smile.
"Boss, this outfit looks much better on you than a suit."
Luke glanced at him and ignored him.
He said to the team members with a serious face:
"This time we may be facing a serious biological and chemical leak. Everyone should be mentally prepared. If you want to withdraw, apply now."
Seeing Luke's serious expression, everyone realized the seriousness of the problem.
Luke had never been so serious, and he had never been seen wearing combat uniform and equipment.
It was Mulder who spoke first.
"Boss, now that you're here, it would be a shame if you go back without seeing this world."
Erica also echoed:
"Boss, wherever you go, I will go."
Others nodded in agreement.
Luke was very satisfied with the team's cohesion and waved his hand.
"Let's go~"
The gate of the manor was knocked open.
Drive to the main building of the manor.
There was not a ray of light.
Cook reminded Luke in his headset.
"Boss, the data shows that this is the estate of a couple named Parks, and there are records of their daily consumption. It is not idle."
Luke: "Got it, let's get off the car and check it out, be careful."
The team members carefully entered the main building.
Mudd couldn't help but sigh when he saw this luxurious large villa.
"There are only two people living in such a big house? It's a bit unbelievable..."
Hobbes was the first to discover the problem.
"Boss, there are signs of intrusion here, professionals."
Everyone looked at Hobbes and saw that he was holding a round pancake-like object in his hand.
"The latest type of stun grenade." Luke explained to everyone.
Chapman looked at the broken window and saw the problem, too.
"Look, boss, that's a rappelling rope."
Luke nodded.
"Guys, someone got here before us. Check your surroundings and be careful."
Hobbs and Erica are in one group, Chapman and Mulder are in one group, and Cook and Luke are in one group.
Before he finished checking the first floor, Luke had already arrived in front of a glass wall.
Take out a special flashlight.
The light emitted is red.
Cook followed Luke and was surprised to find that there were many footprints where Luke's flashlight shone.
Luke bent down to examine the footprints that were revealed.
"Come over here guys, be careful."
When everyone saw Luke looking around the hall at the ground, they carefully bypassed Luke and came to Cook.
Mulder: "Boss, did you lose something?"
"The other team consists of seven people. Five men, two women, and two ordinary people, most likely the homeowner and his wife."
After the inspection, Luke stood up and pointed to the glass wall to the team members.
“That’s where they came in.”
