Chapter 22
“Hey! What’s wrong with you? Don’t scare me! Wake up!” The nearby Caitlyn didn’t anticipate that Lin Ling would just spray blood the moment he woke up and then faint again. Her frightened look was a little embarrassing. “Doctor! Doctor! The patient fainted!”
…
“It’s okay, that blood was just the residual blood from internal injuries the patient had received. He’ll get better now that he spilled everything out.” Said the doctor whilst taking off his stethoscope.
“That’s good…” Caitlyn let out a sigh of relief as she looked at the unconscious Lin Ling. Then she snorted coldly and looked away. “Seriously, only awake for a few moments and already causing trouble to other people. You already slept for 3 days, when are you going to wake up? Hmp.”
…
In the middle of the night, Lin Ling woke up from his coma. Looking outside through the room’s window, he discovered that was deep in the night.
Lin Ling endured the pain in his arms and dragged his weak body from bed. He walked slowly towards the window, supporting himself with the wall. Once he reached the window, his dreamy eyes looked up at the moonlight.
In his opinion, Earth’s moon is gray and ugly, but the moon here in Runeterra is beautiful. Shining with traces of yellow and white, just like the sun, but with a light not as blinding. Its gentleness allows the people of Valoran to look at the night skies and appreciate its uniqueness.
“You are awake” A slightly confused voice came from a corner of the medic ward. The moonlight shined over a pair of long legs wrapped in leather boots that walked towards him without caring for the surrounding darkness.
Lin Ling instinctively took a defensive stance, but relaxed after seeing the pair of perfect legs and slowly put down his hands. Lin Ling straightened his pose and crossing his hands behind his back looked out of the window and said smiling: “Could you please knock the door before you enter Caitlyn Officer? Such a silent appearance could scare someone.”
“Hey” Lin Ling didn’t know if it was on purpose, but when Caitlyn got too close, he got a clear view of those perfect twin peaks, with a skin clear like water, reflecting the light of the moon. Blood rushed to his head, and then it came out of his nose. He took a step back instinctively juts to fall over his own ass, sitting on the ground.
“Hey! What’s wrong with you?” Caitlyn quickly stepped forward and lifted Lin Ling from the floor. Her high heels making clear sounds as she walked.
“It’s okay…I’m okay…” Lin Ling who was just lifted from the ground by Caitlyn, who was even closer now, wiped the blood from his nose and quickly explained.
“Okay? Then why do you have a nosebleed? That’s an obvious internal injury!” Caitlyn face turned serious and said in a commanding tone: “I command you as a police officer, return to your bed and rest immediately!”
“I’m fine!” Lin Ling tried to explain himself again, but Caitlyn didn’t trust his words at all… ke ke, you are right!
That figure of yours caused me an internal injury!
While Lin Ling was thinking obscenities, Caitlyn dragged his body to the ward’s bed by force. What an incredible strength! That her slender body can contain such a powerful strength left Lin Ling flabbergasted!
This woman is really strong!
Even after losing some body weight after his time in the jungle, Lin Ling is still considered and adult male! Although he isn’t 180 centimeters tall, Lin Ling still is considered pretty tall compared to the average male his age!
Even so, this woman can carry his body easily! It’s the same as if she were carrying a rag doll!
“Sure enough, even a pretty woman like her cannot be judged by common sense. She is a champion after all!”
A big man is carried by a beautiful woman, like the princess carrying the knight in silver armor…wait! That’s wrong! It’s not like I’m a male chauvinist or anything, but this is not how things are supposed to happen! Although I have to admit that her hands are pretty soft…
“I was very rude to you this morning because of a misunderstanding, but I hope you can understand.”
Lin Ling nodded again and again: “Of course I understand, if it was me, I would also have the same reaction if a stranger were to suddenly get close to Annie.”
“During the time you were unconscious, I used a communicator to contact Annie. She told me you were temporarily homeless and recommended you to the post of police officer here in Piltover. Although the salary is not high, the treatmen is good however. It includes a week-long holiday package and extra dividends at the end of the year. What do you think?”
“…I agree, but I have to remind you that I’m also a summoner after all, so there must be some extra benefits I can get as a member of the police force…” Even if Lin Ling has a good impression of the girl in front of him, this is his future we are talking about, so the more benefits he can get, the better.
“Yes, of course!” Unexpectedly, Caitlyn agreed so quickly! “Every summoner can be a very precious existence in any organization. I never thought that the police station would actually have a summoner as one of its members. If word gets out that there is a summoner serving in the police force, then we will be able to apply for more funds and resources. Maybe we could finally catch that guy!” She said the last part whilst gritting her teeth at the memory of that criminal.
Although Piltover has a really low rate of criminality, there are always some criminals that can escape from the eyes of the law.
Piltover has been hailed as the city of progress, but the arrival of this new criminal brought a lot of new challenges to the agents of the police. This mysterious and extrajudicial person engaged in a series of distorting and devastating criminal activities, putting the entire city in danger. This has led the city of Piltover to its worse “crime spree” in all its history.
Every time the villain strikes, he lefts a letter “C” in the crime scene. In the eyes of Caitlyn, this insidious criminal is her number one enemy! Until today, she is still searching this criminal throughout the entire mainland!
The reason why Caitlyn joined the League was to accumulate enough influence to track down the only criminal that escaped her pursuit!
But until now, Caitlyn has not even seen the mysterious criminal.
Lin Ling’s head shrank on his shoulders and looked at the strongly clenched fists of Caitlyn. “Well, is that famous runaway girl we are talking about! I did not think that even Caitlyn has not seen her face so far.”
Thinking of the beautiful face of Jinx, tinted with a hint of craziness, Lin Ling’s heart felt a rush of fire and heat.
Since he already came to this magical continent, does it meant that he has the opportunity to personally catch this crazy young girl?
