Chapter 68 [(*^▽^*)]
Lin Leyou hadn't originally planned to go with them, but considering that Zhou Feng was all alone and she didn't want to trouble the landlord, Lao Zhang, she simply got on the bus herself.
As soon as he got on the bus, Zhou Feng was given emergency treatment by several nurses in turn.
The ambulance sped to the hospital, where Zhou Feng was rushed to the hospital for emergency treatment. A nurse also told him to pay the bill first.
Lin Leyou did not refuse and paid some money, knowing that Zhou Feng would return the money to him after he woke up.
Fortunately, Zhou Feng was not seriously injured. He had just been working too hard these past few years, and now that he was suddenly able to relax, his body couldn't handle it.
The doctor said, "He needs to rest for at least a month. You must make it clear to him that he can't push himself. Don't think that just because he's still young, he's already this age. If he doesn't take care of his health, something bad will happen sooner or later."
Lin Leyou: "Thank you, doctor. I will tell him."
The doctor nodded and went to continue his work elsewhere, while Lin Leyou went into the ward. It was a three-bed ward, and Zhou Feng was the only one inside.
Zhou Feng was fast asleep and showed no signs of waking up.
Lin Leyou sighed, casually moved a stool to sit by the bed, and after careful observation, realized that Zhou Feng might not wake up for a while.
So what do I do now? Am I supposed to stay here forever?
He thought about it and decided to go home to rest; it was already dark outside…
But just as he was about to leave... perhaps coincidentally, Zhou Feng woke up.
Lin Leyou, who had just lifted his buttocks, sat down again. Zhou Feng opened his eyes and was completely dazed. He looked around and realized that he was in an unfamiliar place.
Then her gaze fell on Lin Leyou, noticing that he was staring at her. "You..."
He looks familiar. Have I seen this young man somewhere before?
Lin Leyou: "Hello, I'm the one who rented Uncle Zhang's house a few days ago."
Zhou Feng thought for a moment, "So it's that young man? Have you been buying breakfast from my shop recently? I was wondering why you looked familiar."
"So... what's wrong with me?"
Lin Leyou, "I don't know either. When I got home in the evening, I saw you lying in the green belt in the corner of the community. Nobody usually goes there. If I hadn't happened to see you, maybe..."
Zhou Feng sighed, "Thank you, young man!"
"I wanted to talk to Lao Zhang before I left, but I didn't want to be seen by others, so I waited downstairs. Lao Zhang wasn't in the house at the time."
"I never imagined that I would faint there when I chose a secluded place to wait for someone. Thank you so much."
Lin Leyou's gaze fell on Zhou Feng. "Well, also... the doctor just told me that you've been working too hard these past few years, and you need to rest well for the next month and not overexert yourself."
Zhou Feng was stunned for a moment. His first thought was about the money he had on him, but fortunately he had tens of thousands of yuan, so taking a month off wouldn't be a problem.
"Thank you so much, you're such a kind person. By the way, did you pay my medical bills in advance? I'll pay you back however much you owe me."
Lin Leyou thought for a moment and didn't stand on ceremony. Zhou Feng was clearly someone who didn't like owing money. "I paid two thousand to the hospital, and it shouldn't be deducted yet."
Zhou Feng looked around and found his clothes on the bed. He got up, grabbed his coat, and reached inside. He pulled out a wad of cash, which he counted and found to be exactly two thousand.
"Here you go, young man."
Lin Leyou nodded. He knew that Zhou Feng must have taken the money from the fund. He put the money away carefully. "By the way, the doctor also said that you have to stay in the hospital for observation for the next two days. You can only be discharged when you are fine."
Zhou Feng nodded, "I understand."
Lin Leyou said, "I'll go back today and tell Uncle Zhang to come see you tomorrow."
Zhou Feng hesitated for a moment, but still agreed. He didn't want to go back to that neighborhood. If he ran into his ex-wife, she might pester him again.
Anyway, before he left, he just wanted to have a good chat with Lao Zhang to say goodbye. If he could meet him at the hospital, he could leave directly after being discharged.
"Okay, then I'll trouble you."
Lin Leyou said, "It's okay, let's exchange phone numbers and keep in touch by phone later."
Zhou Feng took out his old, broken cell phone. Lin Leyou was speechless when he saw it. It was just as good as the cell phone his dad had given him before. But even though it was broken, it was definitely good enough to answer calls.
After saving the phone number, Lin Leyou left. After all, in Zhou Feng's view, they didn't know each other and had only met a few times.
Lin Leyou was already very kind to take him to the hospital and pay his bills. Now that he's alright, if Zhou Feng were to stay in the hospital, he would start to suspect Lin Leyou's motives.
It was dark when Lin Leyou returned to the neighborhood. Old Zhang's family lived in the same neighborhood, but in a different building. He found Old Zhang's house, and Old Zhang was already home.
"Oh? It's you, young man. What do you want?"
Lin Leyou briefly recounted her encounter with Zhou Feng, saying, "He will be under observation in the hospital for the next couple of days. You can visit him when you have time, so he can leave directly after he is discharged."
Old Zhang was initially very anxious, but upon hearing that it was nothing serious and he was just too tired, he was relieved to hear that he had let go of everything and fainted.
"Then now..."
Lin Leyou said, "No need, no need. If you go to the hospital so late at night, he might get angry. Let's go during the day. Besides, he might already be asleep."
Old Zhang thought about it and agreed. "Alright, I understand. Thank you, young man. You're a good person. If it weren't for you, I don't know when he would have been discovered."
Lin Leyou waved his hand, "It's nothing, I just saw it and helped out. It's nothing serious, I'll head back now."
Old Zhang nodded, "Okay, go ahead."
Two "good guy" cards.
Before leaving, Lin Leyou exchanged phone numbers with Lao Zhang, hoping to use them later. If they had exchanged numbers earlier, he could have contacted Lao Zhang directly from the hospital without having to come back to find him.
After returning home, I checked the house inside and out, locked the doors and windows, drew the curtains, and turned the key twice before locking the door from the inside.
In this way, even if you have a key, you can't open the door from the outside to get in.
After all the preparations were completed, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. There was nothing he could do about it, since this was the real world. In the Endless World, none of this would be necessary.
After all, once a home has been detected and approved by the system, nothing has the right to enter without the user's permission.
But the real world is different.
Lin Leyou lay on the bed without a blanket. It was the middle of July and the weather was really hot. He thought that turning on the air conditioner would make him feel cold, so he put a fan next to the bed on the lowest setting and placed it on a cabinet some distance away.
This way it's just a gentle breeze, and it won't be too uncomfortable even if it blows for a long time.
"Randomly selected time, and you have been selected... Congratulations, you have been selected for six hours."
"The time that resident Lin Leyou spent in the real world this time was equivalent to six hours in the endless world."
Lin Leyou opened his eyes and found himself back in his upscale apartment in the Happiness Community of Endless City. He snuggled into the soft blankets and continued to sleep, since it was only the early hours of the morning anyway.
I'll go out and ask about driving schools when it's daytime. Maybe you need to take a driving test in the Endless World too?
Just as he was drifting off to sleep, he seemed to hear a knock on the door. He was still a little groggy, but he quickly opened his eyes.
He picked up his phone from the bedside table and checked the time. When he returned to the real world, it was just getting dark, around six or seven in the evening. He had drawn a six-hour time limit, which meant it was not even one o'clock in the morning.
He listened carefully for a few minutes, and when there was still no sound, he relaxed. "Could I be hallucinating?"
However, this community is one of the dungeons, so even if something is a little off, it should be considered normal. Anyway, this house is his temporary home, and nothing can enter without his permission.
If that's the case, what else is he worried about?
Go back to sleep.
But less than a minute after he closed his eyes, he heard another knock on the door.
Lin Leyou opened his eyes and looked at the ceiling. This time he was absolutely sure he hadn't misheard. There was indeed a knocking sound outside. So what was going on?
Is this what it's like to start right after I moved in? Has the "Happy Community" scenario begun?
That doesn't make sense. Even if you open a dungeon, you only need to play the role of an NPC. How could you be targeted by something in the dungeon?
He thought about it and decided not to pay attention to the knocking outside, but just then, he received a notification from the system.
"Warning: The mastermind behind the Happy Community dungeon has gone out of control! This dungeon has been opened ahead of schedule!"
Tip: Your home is the safest place.
"Hint: Lin Leyou, a tenant in Happiness Community, is requested to join the players' team and act as a patrol security guard in Happiness Community until the end of the instance. You must not let the players discover your identity. The reward is 500 points."
"Hint: Killing a player will reward you with 20 points and 100,000 coins."
"Hint: The boss behind the Happy Community instance is currently out of control. Tenant Lin Leyou, please find the controlling item and put it back in its original position. Reward: 1000 points."
After reading this series of system prompts, Lin Leyou wondered if he could swear.
Was he plagued by bad luck? What happened? When he went to Shangyu Village, the village chief had changed, and when he went to Qingshui Town, the town chief went berserk and chased him so hard that he was tumbling and crawling, looking utterly pathetic.
Now I've finally found a nice neighborhood with very affordable rent, and I finally have a great temporary home.
Unexpectedly, another anomaly occurred. This time, a dungeon boss went out of control, forcing the dungeon to open prematurely. So, the players who came to Happiness Community this time...
Could it have been stolen from another instance that opened at the same time?
Lin Leyou thought a lot. Suddenly, he saw the equipment in his backpack: a security guard's uniform, an electric baton, and a work schedule.
