Infinite: Starting from Resident Evil

Page 322

Joan of Arc paused for a moment, not understanding.

"Contact information... a mobile phone number will do." Shen Ye suddenly remembered that this was the 21st century. Although it was still in its early stages, smartphones would be widely available in a few years.

"Oh!" Jeanne realized what was happening and quickly took out an old-fashioned button phone from her bag... Of course, this was in Shen Ye's opinion.

Then Joan of Arc entered the number on the business card, dialed it, and immediately hung up.

"Shen, I need to find a way to get you a phone card that works in Europe," Joan of Arc said, putting away her phone.

Shen Ye shrugged: "I don't have a green card, I only have a temporary visa."

The system gave him many temporary identities; he could stay here, but getting a card was still a problem.

“I can help you get a permanent visa,” Enzo said, having overheard their conversation. He was an information broker and knew many people, including some capable officials.

"Thank you very much then," Shen Ye said to him, but he didn't care much about the permanent visa, since he wouldn't be staying here for long anyway, and he would only have one nationality in the future.

Enzo shook his head: "It's nothing, after all, you saved my family... By the way, you two, would you like to have a meal together to express my gratitude?"

"No need, let's go home to eat." Joan of Arc hugged Shen Ye's arm and immediately declined Enzo's invitation.

Seeing Joan of Arc's action, Enzo understood and nodded: "In that case, then we..."

But Shen Ye interrupted him, saying, "Having a meal isn't a bad idea. I also have something I'd like to ask you."

Of course, he couldn't directly ask about Bayonetta and the Hell Bar. He planned to reveal his intentions to the information broker in front of him, such as wanting to take on some exorcism work. That way, once they became familiar with each other, he could find the location of the Hell Bar through Enzo and also get in touch with Bayonetta.

Jeanne, of course, had no idea what Shen Ye was thinking. Her date, which was supposed to go well today, was ruined by this incident, so she was a little upset. Therefore, she thought that after returning home, she would cook some exquisite French dishes and have a candlelight dinner with Shen Ye, and then discuss the process of making a child, in order to give today's imperfect date a good ending.

Hearing that Shen Ye had accepted Enzo's invitation, she became even more annoyed, and her gaze towards Enzo became somewhat displeased.

The witch's gaze was terrifying, and Enzo broke out in a cold sweat under her stare. He quickly said, "Ah, well, I just remembered, my family has never experienced anything like this before. I need to go and comfort them tonight, so... um, sir, how about I contact you again next time?"

“It’s alright.” Shen Ye wasn’t disappointed. Although he knew that Enzo had changed his mind under pressure from Joan of Arc, after thinking about it carefully, he realized that Enzo’s family did need comfort, especially the children, who were young and might develop mental illnesses.

"Oh, right, you don't need to call me 'sir,' just call me Shen Ye. Oh, and there's her, Joan of Arc." Shen Ye forgot he hadn't introduced himself yet and added a sentence.

“Yes, Mr. Shen.” Enzo gratefully tipped his hat to Shen Ye, then placed the hat in front of his chest and bowed slightly to Joan of Arc: “Then we’ll be going now, Miss Joan of Arc.”

"Take care, and don't come back to me!" Joan of Arc waved to him happily.

"No need to see me off, no need to see me off!" Enzo wiped the sweat from his forehead, then got into the driver's seat. The driver had run away, so he had to drive himself.

After watching the taxi drive away, Shen Ye glanced at Joan of Arc, who was clinging to his arm, and sighed softly.

"We go home!"

……

(I was typing in 39-degree heat, and ended up sweating profusely. It was actually kind of enjoyable...)

Chapter 504! Potions

……

It was already past 8 p.m. when I got home.

As soon as the door opened, Miss Witch kicked off her high heels without any regard for her image, put on white over-the-knee socks that matched her white dress, and rushed into the kitchen carrying groceries she had bought from the supermarket... Well, an open kitchen doesn't really require rushing, but she definitely ran all the way there.

"Shen, wait a moment." Jeanne took the vegetables out of the paper bag and placed them on the kitchen table, saying to Shen Ye, who was bending down to change his shoes.

"Okay!" Shen Ye replied simply, then took out two pairs of slippers from the bag. One pair was white and the other was black; the white one belonged to Joan of Arc, and the black one belonged to him.

After putting on his black slippers, Shen Ye glanced at Jeanne, then took the white slippers to the kitchen, placed them beside Jeanne's feet, and said to her, "Here, put your shoes on."

Joan of Arc was busy preparing vegetables when she heard this and said with a smile, "Help me put on my clothes."

Shen Ye glanced at her: "These aren't high heels, you can just lift your foot."

But Joan of Arc simply lifted one of her legs, and her flexibility was astonishing, so her foot stretched directly in front of Shen Ye.

To be honest, although Joan of Arc ran around in high heels all day, her feet didn't smell at all; on the contrary, they exuded a refreshing fragrance...

Okay, Shen Ye doesn't have any foot fetish or any special hobbies, but he did smell a faint fragrance, and the witch's posture was a bit... ambiguous, because she was wearing a dress, and when she raised one leg, the dress naturally slipped down to her waist and hips, so naturally, Shen Ye could see everything under the dress.

"White lace trim..." Shen Ye glanced at it expressionlessly, thinking to himself.

However, seeing the witch's expression that said she wouldn't let him put the slippers on unless he gave them to her, Shen Ye slowly squatted down, picked up the slippers, and then stood up to put the slippers that corresponded to Jeanne's foot on her.

"The other foot."

Seeing Joan of Arc suddenly lost in thought, Shen Ye gave her a reminder.

Joan of Arc immediately came to her senses. She threw down the vegetables in her hand, turned around gracefully to face Shen Ye, and then lifted her other leg. However, just as Shen Ye was about to grab her foot and put her shoes on, the witch suddenly leaned forward, and her long, slender leg pressed directly onto his shoulder, causing him to involuntarily take a step back.

Behind the kitchen table was a row of cabinets, mostly filled with various tableware. Next to them was a small wine cabinet containing several bottles of red wine of unknown brand. So when Shen Ye was pressed down by Jeanne, he bumped into the cabinet, which made a loud clattering sound.

Shen Ye was startled and quickly turned around to look, afraid that his bump would knock over the bowls, plates and red wine inside. After finding that everything inside was fine, he breathed a sigh of relief and then turned back to look at Joan of Arc.

But upon closer inspection, he discovered that Joan of Arc's flawlessly beautiful face was right in front of him... Without wearing high heels, Joan of Arc was only a few centimeters shorter than him, and besides, Joan of Arc was now standing on tiptoe.

In this situation, Shen Ye recalled the short videos he had watched before.

"Am I just being pinned against a wall? Are witches really that ahead of their time?"

But the thought in his mind was quickly interrupted by the witch's alluring red lips as she drew closer...

A few minutes later, Miss Witch resumed picking vegetables.

Shen Ye stood to the side with his arms crossed, then raised his hand to touch his bitten lip. The teeth marks hadn't disappeared yet. He said irritably, "If you want to kiss me, just say so. Why the ambush? If I weren't physically strong enough, my mouth would have needed at least seven or eight stitches from that sudden bite."

"How was I supposed to know your first reaction would be to dodge?" Jeanne licked her lips, which also had a row of teeth marks. Although her surprise attack was ultimately successful, the start was not smooth due to the posture and Shen Ye's first reaction of dodging. Their teeth collided on each other's lips, leaving that row of teeth marks.

"Because it's a natural reaction. Who knew you would suddenly kiss me in that position? Don't you feel awkward?" Shen Ye continued, sounding annoyed.

But at the same time, he was also amazed by the witch's incredible flexibility!

"Don't you like that position? I think it's quite nice, because you can't escape at all." The witch recalled the fleeting panic on Shen Ye's face when she kissed him earlier, and couldn't help but smile. Then, because her lips hurt too much, she gasped.

This pose is great, but I shouldn't use it next time... she thought to herself.

Speaking of which, although Miss Witch is temporarily residing in Country D, she has traveled all over the European continent and has a certain understanding of the local customs and cuisine. After all, five hundred years is enough time; even a pig should know how to bake bread.

Miss Witch might be a bit casual usually, but today she prepared this dinner very carefully, so a fairly substantial dinner was ready in just over half an hour.

While Shen Ye was helping with the plating, Miss Witch walked to the wine cabinet and found a bottle of white wine that had been treasured for nearly a hundred years. She had bought it on a whim when she passed by a winery in France.

However, ordinary wine can only be stored for ten years or so at most, but for a witch with extraordinary abilities, a single spell can solve the problem.

At this moment, the witch holding the wine bottle glanced back at Shen Ye, who was still arranging the wine on a plate. After thinking for a moment, she went into her room, rummaged through her drawers and found a packet of magic potion, and poured a little into it.

Then she frowned slightly: "It seems like too little... Our physical fitness is so strong..."

So she poured in the whole packet of aphrodisiac potion that she had accidentally obtained from a succubus.

She shook the bottle to dissolve the potion completely before carrying it back to the restaurant.

At this moment, Shen Ye had already set the table.

Joan of Arc poured some white wine into her and Shen Ye's glasses, then lit candles. After Shen Ye was seated, she gently snapped her fingers.

Inside the room, black circles appeared, and from within each circle, tiny black hands emerged and turned off all the lights in the room.

"Don't rush to eat the food, have some drink first."

In the flickering candlelight, Joan of Arc raised her wine glass and gestured towards Shen Ye from afar.

Shen Ye had no choice but to put down the knife and fork he had just picked up, raise his wine glass and clink it with Joan's. However, when he took a sip, he felt that the taste was a bit off.

But seeing that Joan of Arc had drunk all the wine in her cup in one gulp, he had no choice but to take a big gulp as well.

then……

He saw Joan of Arc's silver-grey eyes instantly lose all their luster, and she slumped onto the table, fast asleep.

"You...drug yourself?"

Seeing Joan of Arc's appearance, Shen Ye smelled the remaining liquid in the wine glass, felt his own discomfort, then sighed heavily, put the glass aside, and looked at her with some distress.

Then he went over, picked up Joan of Arc, and carried her back to her room.

……

(The next chapter is stuck in the review process!)

Chapter 505! The Research Process in the Early Morning

……

The silver-haired witch was fast asleep; even after Shen Ye took off her dress and socks, she didn't make a sound.

Seeing this, Shen Ye was even more helpless. He couldn't understand what Joan of Arc was trying to do. Even if she was trying to drug him and do something to him, it probably wouldn't have any effect.

Unable to understand, Shen Ye sighed again, then covered Jeanne with a blanket and returned to the restaurant.

Although the drug in the wine had some effect on him, he didn't drink it all at once like Joan of Arc, so he was still able to stay sober.

He returned to the restaurant to continue eating, since it was already past nine o'clock at night and he was starving.

After devouring the food on his plate, Shen Ye wiped his mouth with a lingering sense of satisfaction. He had to admit that Jeanne's cooking skills were quite good; the veal steak was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The only pity was that the wine, which was supposed to accompany the meal, had been drugged, otherwise it would have been perfect.
