"Capitalists and politicians are always short-sighted; they will [sacrifice?]** everything for profit. I think this statent is limited to those diocre people. Because those with vision and foresight have long beco friends with everyone."
"All shallow capitalists and politicians, or leaders not during a world war period, harbor a kind of wishful thinking; they believe they can control everything, but in reality, it's not like that. Their only commonality is that they are all very good at packaging themselves. So we usually call leaders who ss things up diocre or ordinary. Leaders who maintain the current state and occasionally have so outstanding performances are called excellent. But above that, there are great leaders who unite the interests of the majority and allow everyone to progress with leapfrog achievents."
"A great leader not only needs to excel in politics but also has their own ideology, an understanding of all things; they often have a logically effective solution in their hearts. But this ideology is difficult to cross eras. And above all this, those who can break the barriers of the era and focus on the next era, we usually have a general term for such figures: heroes."
"As long as one can still think, one can distinguish within a few years, or even one year, whether this person is a hero or sothing else. There might be many excellent leaders in a country, an era, but there is often only one hero per era. Unless this era is unprecedented."
"…Is this the setting for your new novel again?"
Texas, who ca to visit, showed an 'here he goes again' expression.
"Ah, it's a pretty good setting, right? So I thought, wait until the end when all the heroes sacrifice themselves in a mont of despair, then what is born is the savior of all Terra, the Emperor. He will lead his people to destroy all warlords on Terra, unite all people together; this is Terra's first millennium."
"Sounds impressive, but not logical. How can soone unite all divergences and wars?"
"So it's literary fiction; that legendary perfect man, the ultimate saint, the common sovereign, he possesses all the good virtues of humanity, and won't harm the civilians who should be treated justly because of these virtues. Everyone who sees him can't help but prostrate themselves in worship of his divinity; everyone can't help but feel close to him. But he won't direct his love towards any single person; he loves all of humanity, all of Terra. So he will lead his people towards a better life."
"Indeed an image soone like you could co up with. As crazy and elusive as ever."
"Right?"
Li Lin, lying on the hospital bed, gave Texas a grinning thumbs-up.
Li Lin's physical condition recovered very quickly. Rather, apart from the internal organ tremors and short-term unconsciousness caused by falling from a tall building, he actually didn't have any major problems. More were the after-effects of the rough handling during the hospital's physical examination due to carelessness.
So in summary, this body, which looked like a virus aggregate in the eyes of Terra people, was actually quite reliable to so extent. Those complex and disordered various organs still pulled him back very easily, making the visiting old director, who looked quite energetic, click his tongue in wonder, saying if this body exercised regularly and was maintained with common drugs, he could probably still live to a hundred.
And regarding the body's issues, information lockdown was actually implented.
Apart from so doctors and internal staff, Officer Ch'en, Li Lin, and so high-level officials, no one knew Li Lin had any physical problems.
Because this matter was actually very big; if news spread in Lungn claiming inhumane genetic experints were conducted internally and there was live data evidence, then the attention from the Columbian civil war would probably burn over here. Others aside, this was still Penguin Logistics, a place with so influence; it would cause many problems for Lungn's overall developnt.
Lungn wasn't stupid; although the minds of politicians and rchants occasionally had so issues, even funding rebels or revolutionaries to harm others, when it ca to such simple and easy-to-understand multiple-choice questions, Lungn still knew what was what.
Lungn wanted various powers to weaken so they could do business better, not for the whole world to have a big bombing raid. Even less did they want others to attack themselves. At the very least, their own territory had to be guaranteed safe.
And even if problems were found out, Lungn had already prepared relevant materials to shift the bla. After a series of negotiations and table-banging, Officer Ch'en even helped Li Lin get a large sum of hush money. Of course, Li Lin didn't actually take it. Although Lungn LMD had so purchasing power, having so much money was useless; this barren world's production capacity and entertainnt capacity were simply outrageous. Even ordering takeout required adding salt yourself.
Thinking about it, he just handed the money over to Officer Ch'en to manage, treating it like depositing in a bank. Li Lin, having read countless web novels, deeply understood that this sum of money, rather than molding away with him, a small fry, it was better to take this opportunity to give the big shots face and gain so protection. Facts proved Officer Ch'en was indeed a trustworthy person; taking the money, she also handled things, quickly sorting everything out properly for Li Lin. Just didn't know why, Officer Ch'en seed to be trying hard not to et him face-to-face recently, and conversations were also strictly business-like. The previous cheerful feeling of chatting freely about anything was basically gone.
Even when calling her, she sounded like a pigeon hit by a bullet, her speech even becoming sowhat unclear, making Li Lin feel inexplicably puzzled. It can't be because I'm short-lived that she doesn't want contact, right? Haven't seen Officer Ch'en show any tendency towards racial discrimination?
It wasn't like he hadn't cheekily thought maybe Officer Ch'en had a crush on him, but thinking of Officer Ch'en's strictly business-like manner, Li Lin felt it probably wasn't because of that kind of thing. Very likely just because she had a mission recently. Li Lin had also heard that recently, due to frequent criminal cases and biological modification incidents, Oripathy, etc., targeting Lungn, the dical departnt and special operations forces had jointly established a mysterious departnt, specifically targeting cris in this aspect.
Well, in that case, avoiding suspicion was also very normal.
"Lappland is coming over later."
Looking at the ti on the ward clock, Texas calmly said to Li Lin:
"Don't play around with her too much. She doesn't have bad intentions, but she doesn't have good intentions either."
"It's fine, it's fine, I know what I'm doing."
"…Is that so?"
Looking doubtfully at Li Lin, Texas stood up and pulled open the main door.
"…"
"…Yo?"
Seeing Lappland standing outside the door rubbing her hands, looking embarrassed, Texas sighed and walked around her.
