After eating, Lin Hu originally went to plow the fields, but it was too dark to see clearly, so he went back to the raft and lay there like a corpse.
By the way, 1097 hadn't completed the task he was given before, and 1097 hadn't shown up for a few days.
Lin Hu also tried to contact it, but there was no response.
He was awakened from his sleep by a familiar pain in his stomach during the night.
"What's wrong?" Duan Linzhou was awakened by Lin Hu's tossing and turning. Before he had even fully opened his eyes, he asked the person next to him what was wrong.
"What's wrong?! Are you feeling unwell?"
Duan Linzhou saw Lin Hu curled up with his back to him and sensed something was wrong. He reached out to touch the stomach that the other was clutching and then touched his forehead, only to find that the other's forehead was covered in cold sweat.
"Medicine... stomach medicine..."
Lin Hu was already delirious from the pain. When he heard Duan Linzhou's voice, he wanted someone to get him some medicine, but the pain made him almost too weak to speak. He managed to utter the words "stomach medicine" before nearly fainting.
"Okay, wait here, I'll go get it. Don't go to sleep yet." Duan Linzhou quickly got up and went to the storage box in the living room to find the first-aid kit. He remembered that there was stomach medicine in the first-aid kit.
After finally managing to take the medicine that Duan Linzhou brought, Lin Hu fell into a deep sleep.
[1097: Can the host hear me?]
[Lin Hu: ? ? 1097?]
[1097: Yes, host.]
Linhu was surrounded by darkness. He could hear the electronic voice of 1097, but he couldn't see anything else, not even his own body. He couldn't move and could only respond through his consciousness.
[Lin Hu: What happened?]
[1097: Because the host failed to complete the task, they have been punished and will be locked in a dark room for three days.]
[Lin Hu: Three days? Haven't you been gone for four or five days already?] 1097 rarely appears, so it's no wonder he didn't notice.
[1097: I don't want to appear too often and disrupt the host's life.]
Of course, except when he wants to slack off.
[Lin Hu: If I fail to complete this mission, will I be punished?]
In fact, Lin Hu had already vaguely guessed what was going on.
[1097: Host, haven't you felt the changes in your own body yet?]
That's really true!
Not hearing Lin Hu's reply, 1097 then realized that its host thought it was a soul that had transmigrated, and it was also its fault for previously isolating the illness in the original world.
[1097: Host, don't you know you've transmigrated into this world? It's not like you've transmigrated into a soul. You'll definitely bring your own physical ailments with you. You didn't feel it before because someone else removed them for you.]
[Lin Hu: Then why are you back now?]
Lin Hu really didn't want to be tormented by this stomach cancer anymore. In the past, just to prove himself, he gritted his teeth and persevered even when it was in the middle or late stages, actively cooperating with the treatment.
He's already enjoyed a few days of comfort, and he doesn't want to go back to the way things were before.
[1097: Don't worry, host. This is just a punishment for failing the mission. It's a minor stomach ailment. Just eat normally.]
But~
If the next mission fails again, it won't be a minor stomach ailment. If missions fail consecutively, the host's only fate will be—death!
Lin Hu could sense that 1097 wasn't just joking; he could feel the killing intent 1097 released in that instant, as well as the other party's expectations.
What is it expecting? Or... hoping for?
[Lin Hu: What can I do? There were over 80,000 people before they landed on the island, but after they arrived, their strength was insufficient. Am I supposed to save them one by one? I don't have offensive superpowers! Even if I did! How could I possibly save so many people!]
Lin Hu was already a little annoyed. He was inexplicably pulled into this world. He originally thought he could live a carefree life as a lazy behind-the-scenes boss, but now... what kind of mess is this?
[1097: Host, don't be discouraged. This time, someone brought you some good stuff. When you wake up, open the shop and take a look; these are some really good items.]
...
After 1097 finished speaking, Lin Hu regained consciousness and opened his eyes to find it was already daylight. However, he was so overwhelmed by the current situation that he didn't want to wake up.
Duan Linzhou was hugging him from behind, the other's chest pressed against his back, one arm draped over his head, the other hand resting on his stomach, and even breathing coming from above his head.
Furthermore, Lin Hu only lay on his own side, not on the other person's side. Most importantly! This time, the two of them were actually sharing the same blanket!!!
Has he squeezed her a few times and she gotten used to it?
I didn't squeeze in last night, am I still not used to it?
"woke up?"
Lin Hu was still lost in thought when Duan Linzhou's voice rang out above him.
"Ah, um, did I wake you up?" Lin Hu replied, reaching out to support himself on the bed and sitting up.
"No." Duan Linzhou withdrew his hand, then reached out with another hand to touch Lin Hu's stomach, and said again:
Are you still feeling unwell?
Lin Hu was slightly provoked by this action, but he wasn't offended by the other person's behavior, so he didn't dodge and stammered a little before quickly replying:
"No, no, I'm feeling better, it's just an old problem."
"An old problem?" Duan Linzhou thought to himself, "I haven't noticed this problem in the other person after spending so much time together."
"Yes, I was feeling better before, but it's probably because I didn't eat properly for the first two days on the island." Lin Hu was becoming more and more adept at lying.
"Then you rest first, I'll go cook you some porridge," Duan Linzhou said, pressing him back into bed.
Lin Hu didn't refuse; it was a good opportunity to take a look at the good stuff 1097 had mentioned.
Upon opening the online store, several products marked "New" appeared prominently on the homepage.
