IMPRISONED YOUNG MAN'S DIARY
September 5th
Men in black abducted me on a street corner in the Congo and brought me to this town 16 days ago. When I first arrived here I had no clue what was going on, but I've gradually come to understand how this city works. It appears we've been locked up in this town by a pharmaceutical company called Umbrella, as guinea pigs for human experiments.
Everyone in town is an Umbrella employee and all the women and children are their family members. They seem to be gathering guinea pigs from all over the world. The person in the next room is from China, on the opposite side Brazil, also from Russia, Japan... it's like a world tradeshow. But it's strange that they're all around the same age as me, the youngest being 16 and the eldest 19 or 20.
The Umbrella people sometimes take us to the city's club and arcade under their watchful eyes, half heartedly trying to relieve our stress, but I won't be fooled by such things. I must escape this town. Now I just have to get a group together.
September 10th
Recently, the speech and behavior of my companions have been weird. It seems some drugs have been mixed into our food. Sometimes I black out, too. I need to pay more attention.
September 21st
Today, another of my companions, Chen in the next room, was taken to the factory on top of the mountain. Chen will probably never come back. I'm sure he'll meet the same fate as Jacob and Anna who disappeared last week. I know this. We'll all be carried to the factory on top of the mountain to share the same fate as our companions. The factory workers tear out our brains and extract some sort of substance on the orders of this city's commander, Vincent.
Yesterday, when we were taken to the club, I overheard factory workers talking while they didn't know I was there.
Vincent's a devil.
No, not just Vincent. Even the city's women and children don't see us as humans, they see us merely as guinea pigs.
The people of this city are all devils.
If we stay here they'll kill us for sure.
We have to put the escape plan into action as soon as we can!
October 9th
Opportunity knocks. For the past week the Umbrella people in the city have been on edge. Rumor has it there's been a major accident at one of Umbrella's labs somewhere in America. While the guards are busy gathering intel about it, they're not keeping as close an eye on us.
We've already got the numbers for the mass-breakout. Enrique and Stojkovic will steal the keys from the jailer, Sankhon and I will cause a diversion, while Felipe and Yoshikawa are responsible for procuring weapons.
October 10th
Escape route decided. We'll go tonight at 11 o'clock. The 20 of us will split into Group A and the Group B. Group A will open the manhole to the underground sewers and Group B will use rope from the lookout tower to escape to the city alleyways.
There should be enough rope we've tied up. If we fail, Vincent will definitely kill us. But even if we remain here any longer, Vincent will order them to cut open our skulls. If we're going to die either way, we should do something.

投獄された若者の日記
9月5日
コンゴの街角であの黒ずくめの男達に拉致されこの街に連れてこられて今日で16日が過ぎた。ここに来た時には何がなんだか分からなかったが、次第にこの街のカラクリが見えてきた。どうやら俺達はアンブレラっていう製薬会社の人体実験のモルモットとしてこの街に監禁されているようだ。
街の連中は全員アンブレラの社員ばかりで女子供もみんなその家族だ。モルモットは世界中から集められているようだ。隣の部屋のヤツは中国、向いはブラジル、他にもロシア、日本・・・・万国博覧会ってカンジだが奇妙なことに俺と同世代ばかりで下は16上は19か20だ。
アンブレラの奴らは俺達を街のゲームセンターやクラブに時々監視つきで連れていきストレスを発散させようなんて姑息なことをするがそんなものでは騙されない。絶対にこの街を脱走してやる。とにかく今は仲間を集めるんだ。
9月10日
最近、仲間達の言動がおかしい。どうやら食べ物に薬が混ぜられているようだ。俺も時々意識がない時がある。気を付けなければ。
9月21日
今日もまた一人、隣部屋の陳が、山の上の工場に連れて行かれた。おそらく陳は戻ってこないだろう。先週いなくなったアンナやジェイコブと同じ運命を辿るに違いない。俺は知っている。山の上の工場に運ばれた俺達の仲間が辿る運命を。この街のビンセントという司令官の命令で、工場の奴らは、俺達の脳を切り裂いて、何とかっていう脳内物質を抽出してるんだ。
昨日俺がクラブに連れて行かれたとき、工場の奴らが俺達が来ていることを知らずに、話しているのを聞いてしまった。
ビンセントは悪魔だ。
いやビンセントだけじゃない。この街の女子供ですら俺達を人間としてではなくモルモットとしてしか見ていない。
この街の連中、みんな悪魔だ。
ここにいたら間違いなく殺される。
脱走計画を早く実行しなければ!
10月9日
チャンス到来。この一週間、アンブレラの奴らが浮き足立っている。噂ではアメリカのどこかのアンブレラの研究所で大事故が起こったらしい。看守の奴らもその情報収集に明け暮れていて、俺達の監視が手薄になっている。
既に集団脱走のメンバーは揃っている。ストイコビッチとエンリケは看守から鍵を盗む役、俺とサンコンは陽動部隊、ヨシカワとフェリペは武器調達の責任者だ
10月10日
脱走経路が決定。決行は今夜11時。総勢20名をA班とB班に分けて行動。A班は地下の監禁室の通風孔から下水道へ、B班は監視塔からロープを使って市街地の路地へ脱出する。
ロープは俺達を縛っているもので十分だ。もし失敗したら間違いなくビンセントに殺される。だがここにいてもいつかビンセントの命令で俺達の頭蓋骨は切り開かれるだろう。同じ殺されるなら行動を起こすべきだ。

DIARY OF IMPRISONED YOUTH
September 5th
16 days have passed since I was abducted on a street in Congo by the men in black, and was brought here. I didn't understand what was happening at first, but I gradually became aware of the truth of this city.
We seem to be confined here to serve as guinea pigs for a medical company called Umbrella Inc.. All the residents of this city work for Umbrella, even the women and children are family members of employees.
The guinea pigs seem to be gathered from all over the world. The guy in the next room is from China, the one in the front of my cell is from Brazil. The rest are Russian, Japanese... It's like a world trade show. Its strange that they are all around my age. The youngest is 16, and the oldest is 19 or 20.
Those guys from Umbrella sometimes take us to an arcade or to a nightclub so we can enjoy ourselves and relieve our stress, but I won't let them deceive me. I will escape from this place, no matter what it takes! I must...
Anyway, the most important thing to do now is to organize and gather our comrades for what lies ahead.
September 10th
Recently, the others have been behaving strangely. It seems that they have put some kind of weird drug into our meals. I sometimes lose consciousness, too.
I have to be careful.
September 21st
I can't believe it!
Another friend of mine, Chin, from the next room, was taken to the factory on the mountain. I don't think Chin's coming back. He will meet the same fate as Anna or Jacob who disappeared last week.
I know... I know what happens to those who are taken to the factory on the mountain...
When they took me to a nightclub yesterday, I overheard a conversation that some factory workers were having...
Under orders from Vincent, the commander of the city, they cut open our brains and extract some kind of material, whatever they call it.
All I can say is that Vincent is a devil. No... Not just Vincent. Even the women and children in this city don't treat us as human beings, but as guinea pigs.
All the people in the city are evil. I will surely be killed if I stay here any longer.
We have to hurry and execute our escape plan!
October 9th
The time has come. I have noticed the Umbrella people have been visibly disturbed for about a week or so. Rumor has it that there was a terrible accident at the Umbrella laboratory somewhere in America.
All the prison guards seem to be very busy gathering information on the accident, so security isn't as tight.
We've organized our comrades already. Stojkovic and Enriquez are supposed to steal the keys from the guards, Sankhon and I will act as decoys, and Yoshikawa and Fellipe are in charge of gathering weapons.
October 10th
We have decided on our escape route. The plan will be carried out at 11pm tonight. We have twenty members seperated into two units: Unit A and Unit B.
Unit A will go into the sewer through the ventilation slot of the confinement room, while Unit B will use a rope to climb down from the surveillance tower.
We'll use the rope they used to tie us. If we fail, Vincent will surely kill us. But if we stay here, Vincent will order them to cut our brains eventually.
We're dead either way, but I'd rather die trying to escape...
