Rosen walked into the church, followed by James and Kaplan.
"Yo, Alice, long time no see."
Alice's pupils constricted slightly, then she looked at James and Kaplan, and immediately walked towards Rosen: "Mister Magician."
"You probably have eight hours left," Rosen said.
"What six hours?" Alice asked, puzzled.
"At dawn, the Umbrella Corporation will nuke Raccoon City."
Everyone's faces changed dramatically upon hearing this.
"This… This is impossible, there are still many survivors in Raccoon City."
"No one cares," Rosen said with a smile. "In the past few days, the Umbrella Corporation has built a ten-meter-high wall around Raccoon City. Neither zombies nor survivors can leave, so you'd better find a way to leave soon."
James and Kaplan also looked astonished, and James asked, "Rosen, aren't we leaving?"
"No, Raccoon City after the nuclear explosion will be a true paradise. Why leave?"
"You're crazy, that's a nuclear explosion."
"As a Magician, being able to withstand a nuclear explosion, that's very reasonable, isn't it?"
"Reasonable… my foot, are you crazy?"
"If you want to leave, I won't stop you, but Kaplan has to stay."
"Ah? Me? Why me?"
"Just think of it as me wanting to drag someone down with me before I die," Rosen said.
"Rosen, let me go, I don't want to die."
"Do you know how many people die every year?"
"I don't know, why would I care about that?" Kaplan replied with a mournful face.
"According to the United Nations report, the global death toll last year was 89 million."
"So what direct connection does that have to you not letting me leave?"
"89 million people died last year, but not a single one died from a nuclear explosion. You say you can die under a nuclear explosion, what a great honor is that?"
Everyone's expressions on the scene were quite something.
Especially Kaplan, after spending a few days with Rosen, he hadn't realized Rosen was so crazy.
"Rosen, is there anything special about Kaplan? Why do you want to keep him?"
He always felt that Rosen was very mysterious, but he couldn't pinpoint exactly where the mystery lay.
"Didn't I say? I need someone to drag down with me, or you can stay too." Rosen glanced in another direction: "Hundreds of zombies are approaching here right now. Are you planning to feed the zombies here, or fight them to the death?"
"Let's get out of here first," Alice quickly told everyone.
Everyone also hurriedly left the church, but Alice found that Rosen was standing still.
"You're not leaving?"
"There are a few acquaintances of mine among that group of zombies. I plan to say hello to them."
Everyone was utterly speechless; Rosen's way of thinking was simply beyond their comprehension.
However, when they left the vicinity of the church and looked back, they could see that from another direction of the church, dense hordes of zombies were surrounding it.
"Crazy," Jiru muttered. From the moment Rosen arrived, she felt he was an incomprehensible lunatic.
"Never mind him, it's his business if he wants to die," Janice said.
"He's not that easy to kill," Alice said.
"Do you think he can escape in that situation?"
"It's also possible he'll kill all those zombies," Alice replied.
"Is Rosen really that powerful?" James asked.
Alice looked at James: "Have you forgotten about him?"
"He said that my memory and Kaplan's were tampered with by the Umbrella Corporation. Do you know about my past?"
"He's right, your memory was indeed tampered with," Alice said.
What she didn't make clear, however, was that James and Kaplan's memories were tampered with by Rosen.
Just as everyone was escaping, the phone in a roadside phone booth suddenly rang.
Everyone looked at each other, and no one went to answer the phone, continuing on their way.
But when they arrived near the next phone booth, the phone rang again.
At this point, everyone finally realized that someone was monitoring them and trying to communicate with them through the phone booth.
Alice thought for a moment, then stepped forward and picked up the phone.
"Hello, who is this?"
