The hospitalization time wasn't long, actually only a week.
Li Lin's injuries really weren't serious; if not for the doctors' carelessness and direct handling, he probably wouldn't even have needed to stay in the hospital for three days. The cushioning ability of that layer of trash bags was actually quite high; it was just the impact of Lappland's weight that knocked the wind out of him.
Internal organ vibrations and such were just minor things for this world's medical system. It was only due to carelessness and taking things for granted that Li Lin stayed in the hospital for seven days. When discharged, that seemingly atavistic old director gripped his hand and wouldn't let go, snot and tears streaming. Saying he was the general person in charge of the biomedical department, if there were any problems, just go find him directly. If feeling any discomfort, also go find him. Insisted on stuffing a business card into Li Lin's hand.
Li Lin thought to himself he wasn't trying to extort anyone, why put on such a posture? He wasn't a medical troublemaker, moreover, the compensation payment had already been transferred, nothing more needed to be said.
But knowing a doctor, especially a big-shot doctor who felt inexplicably guilty towards you, was generally good.
Compared to the tangled environment of his previous life, Li Lin was quite satisfied with the current situation.
Just didn't know why, after he showed goodwill towards that doctor, the doctor seemed to look even guiltier. Making Li Lin unsure what expression to use when facing these people prone to overthinking . Who asked him to be a transmigrated weakling ? Nothing could be done about being overthought by others.
Another matter worth noting was that the Lungmen leadership seemed to have come over to inquire about some issues regarding the Oripathy patient attack. The leader was a rich second generation who looked very wealthy. But unexpectedly, that rich second generation didn't seem to be there to show off or gain credentials . Instead, he reached conclusions through very serious inquiry and investigation, repeatedly confirming. He also mentioned things related to bioengineering and Oripathy, making Li Lin somewhat clueless.
Besides that, Officer Ch'en's side also seemed to have encountered some problems; the construction of her unit seemed to have reached a stalemate. Although Li Lin's large compensation payment was used to fill the gap, this was, after all, the construction of a certain department; wanting perfection certainly required more money, and more money required reporting to and lobbying more places. And it seemed Officer Ch'en also had a political enemy—strange, police actually have political enemies too—leading to the overall activity being very rigid. She could only ask someone to bring a message saying they'd have a meal together when there's a chance; she herself was still active on the front lines of fighting crime .
Towards such a loyal and dedicated good police officer, Li Lin had nothing better to give besides sending over another portion of the compensation money.
Lungmen LMD, in Li Lin's eyes, didn't seem particularly useful for spending. The luxury goods and various utensils in this world didn't quite suit his taste. So the extra spare money was basically all donated to Officer Ch'en, allowing her to better establish that so-called department for cleaning up high-level crime in Lungmen.
And Penguin Logistics' reaction was nothing much to speak of. During the hospitalization, other activities didn't stop. Penguin Logistics generously gave paid sick leave, and during workdays, someone would also come to chat and fool around with Li Lin, occasionally bringing some fresh food over, fully demonstrating Penguin Logistics' good corporate culture. Although Li Lin personally felt having someone squatting in his hospital room made him even more uncomfortable.
On the day after discharge, they held a grand dinner party, still bringing along the sword-fighting Blacksteel duo and Lappland, eating, drinking, playing, and having a very enjoyable time. And what was very pleasing was that the next day was also a rest day. Croissant went out early to set up her stall; Texas and Exusiai teamed up and went out, unsure what for. Lappland went to follow Texas. And Sora still had a concert to perform. In other words, very rarely, he was the only one in the entire Penguin Logistics dormitory. And Li Lin was currently enjoying this hard-won tranquility.
How to enjoy time alone happily? That's writing novels, of course.
"Mm, this should be okay."
Looking at the setting materials at hand, Li Lin nodded with satisfaction.
He originally wanted to write something like Warhammer 40K, with its super high stakes and grand scale settings. But thinking carefully, as the saying goes, good things should be saved for last. If Warhammer 40K was thrown out first, having nothing left to write later would be boring. So while in the hospital, Li Lin considered doing something peaceful as a transition.
Thus he chose to copy the setting of Warhammer Fantasy, deciding to write a Warhammer Fantasy story. Compared to 40K, the world of Warhammer Fantasy was very peaceful.
But that was only relative to the world of 40K. The world of Warhammer Fantasy was still filled with disputes and battles; different beliefs, different races, different cultures, all living beings were constantly at war, without any respite. Just writing out the setting alone allowed one to feel the madness possessed by that world, and the kind of noble spiritual quality contained within those leaders. Even evil villains possessed a charm of pure evil.
This world was similar to Terra, yet completely different. Li Lin mainly narrated stories about the Empire of Man in the Old World. After writing a few short stories to set the atmosphere, he decided to show these things to Texas first. Li Lin didn't understand Terra's aspects too well. Texas looked like a cool and elegant black-haired, straight-haired literary girl; Li Lin felt asking for a professional's opinion was necessary. He wasn't a Terran after all, didn't understand what Terrans liked to read and didn't like to read. Maybe Terrans liked reading about cuckolding , who knows.
"Phew, wrote twenty-five thousand words today, really worked hard…"
Wasn't this diligent when having fun in the previous world.
Looking at the document on the computer, Li Lin connected to the printer, directly printed out the text, preparing to bind it into a document file.
And while waiting for the printer to churn out paper, Li Lin's phone suddenly vibrated. Sitting on the chair, he casually opened his phone to look; a pure black APP was constantly flashing at the top, displaying a light green ID, and the question that followed.
'Hello, Prophet. I am Talulah. Regarding the question of human nature, can you tell me more?'
"…Ah."
Why is it you again…
Looking at the name above, Li Lin's expression instantly stiffened.
