On how PhDs become human evil

"Fortunately, because of Frostnova's attack, the Reunion members didn't dare to venture out in the freezing cold, and I didn't run into anyone along the way." Bai Jie said as he opened the package and took out the contents.

The package contained canned food, compressed biscuits, drinking water, painkillers, bandages, and two thick coats, the purpose of which is self-evident.

"Let me change your bandage. It will hurt a little, but please bear with it."

"It's so annoying. You've been nagging me every time you change my clothes for the past three days. It's not like this little pain is a big deal. Hurry up and do it."

Listening to Lappland's words, Bai Jie sighed, picked up a complete set of first aid equipment he had taken from a private clinic, and began to change Lappland's bandages.

"Swish..."

A black leather jacket and a light gray shirt were thrown to the ground, revealing the beautiful body of a young girl in the prime of her life to Bai Jie. However, Bai Jie had no time to appreciate the beauty before him, because this delicate body was covered with all kinds of scars and wounds, as well as Originium stones of various sizes, and bandages wrapped around her from her right shoulder to her abdomen.

Although it wasn't the first time he had changed Lappland's bandages, Bai Jie felt a pang of heartache every time he saw this sight. Among Rhodes Island's many operators, Lappland's Originium infection symptoms were among the most severe. Moreover, Lappland didn't care about anything in battle and only focused on charging forward, which resulted in her Originium infection level increasing every time she returned from a battle.

In Kal'tsit's words, Lappland could die from Oripathy at any time.

"What's wrong, Doctor? Are you pitying me?" Completely disregarding the fact that Bai Jie had seen her naked body, Lappland's lips curled up slightly. "There's no need to look at me like that. I've already prepared myself to die. You don't need to feel sorry for me. Just order me around to kill people."

“Lappland…” Bai Jie wanted to say something, but looking into Lappland’s eyes, he couldn’t say anything. He had only been on Rhodes Island for a short time, and it was really inappropriate for an outsider like him to interfere in Lappland’s affairs.

Placing his hand on Lappland's bandages, Bai Jie repeated the procedure he had done several times before.

Unwrap the old bandages, check Lappland's wound for infection, apply medicine to Lappland with my rudimentary medical knowledge, and then put on new bandages.

"Are you hungry? Let's eat, even though it's just canned food and biscuits."

After washing the blood off his hands, Bai Jie tossed the scattered cans of food on the floor to Lappland, then opened a bag of compressed biscuits and started eating them.

Without saying a word, Lappland quietly opened the can of beef in her hand and began to eat.

"Doctor, when will the rescue arrive?"

“I’ve already sent the signal. As for whether Amiya and the others will see it, I don’t know. By the way, that’s the only signal flare we have,” Bai Jie said. “We’ll wait here for four days. If no one comes by then, I’ll take you back to Lungmen.”

Three days ago, during the battle in Chernobog, Bai Jie's Rhodes Island squad encountered Frostnova, an executive of the Reunion Movement, and her Yeti squad. After the battle, Bai Jie was defeated head-on by Frostnova. Although Amiya and the others retreated in time, Lappland was unexpectedly injured. In order to save Lappland, Bai Jie missed the best opportunity to retreat.

After that, in order to settle Lappland and to evade the pursuit of the Reunion Movement, Bai Jie brought Lappland to a house in this alley. It seems that this place was formerly an underground clinic. Thanks to this, Bai Jie was able to stop Lappland's bleeding and provide her with basic treatment in time.

However, this place is so remote that even Rhodes Island might not be able to find it, let alone the Reunion Movement.

So in the worst-case scenario, if Rhodes Island couldn't find him and Lappland, Bai Jie decided to take Lappland to Lungmen, which happened to be approaching them recently.

After a simple meal, Bai Jie and Lappland lay down on the bed. Since there was only one bed and it wasn't very big, Lappland had to lie in Bai Jie's arms for the bed to fit two people.

Sensing the masculine presence emanating from her, Lappland suddenly laughed: "Haha, if Exusiai knew that I was actually so close to the Doctor, she would probably have a very interesting expression."

"Why did you bring up Exusiai?" Bai Jie frowned. He had just been rejected after confessing his feelings to Exusiai a while ago, and he didn't really want to hear her name now.

Turning around to face Bai Jie, Lappland laughed and said, "Hey, Doctor, do you like Exusiai?"

"...I used to like it."

After being rejected by Exusiai, Bai Jie knew that the two could only be good friends and there was no possibility of taking things further. Therefore, it was better to end any feelings he might have had.

Looking at Bai Jie's complicated expression, Lappland suddenly gave a wicked smile and then bit Bai Jie's lips hard.

"Ouch... What are you doing?"

"How does it compare to Exusiai?" Lappland retorted. "Or is the way you kiss me wrong? Do you want me to stick my tongue in?"

"That's not the point. Why did you kiss me?"

Lappland chuckled twice and said, "Anyway, we're bored here, so let's do something fun. Tell me, Doctor, how do my lips compare to Exusiai's?"

How should I know...

"Haven't you two kissed? You're so close."

"Ugh, so annoying, go to sleep, you stupid dog."

As Bai Jie spoke, he tried to turn his head away, but Lappland reached out and wrapped her arms around his neck, pressing her entire body against Bai Jie's. The sensation of softness and hardness mixed together made Bai Jie's heart skip a beat.

Lappland gathered a wisp of Originium energy at her fingertips and ripped open Bai Jie's clothes. She said, "What does it matter? It's just the two of us here. No one will notice if we do something. Besides, I don't know when I'll die. I want to experience a woman's life before I die."

"You're not allowed to say that!"

Bai Jie suddenly shouted, his eyes filled with an extremely strong obsession and impact.

"Don't talk about death so casually. I won't let you die, nor will I let any of you die."

"Doctor, do you know that you can be quite attractive at times?" Lappland chuckled, then sealed Bai Jie's lips with hers again, passionately and frantically kissing him.

Bai Jie was not a saint or a gentleman; he couldn't tolerate it.

"Hmm...you touched my breasts right away, Doctor? Do you like big ones?"

"Let me make this clear first: since you're not fully recovered, we'll stop here. If it hurts, just tell me and I'll stop."

"Hehe, I guess I'm your first woman, Doctor. Could Texas and Exusia do that?"

Seeing that Bai Jie had agreed, Lappland didn't hesitate and wrapped her fluffy tail around Bai Jie's waist.

————————————————————

Three days later, inside the medical department of Rhodes Island.

"Yes, there's nothing wrong with your physical condition, just a little weak. Remember to eat more nourishing foods when you get back."

After giving Bai Jie a full-body checkup, Kal'tsit said calmly.

Two days ago, after rescuing Bai Jie from Chern City, Bai Jie was so exhausted that the originally scheduled physical examination was postponed to today.

As he sat up from the operating table, Bai Jie asked, "Kal'tsit, how is Lappland?"

"Thankfully, you provided temporary treatment, preventing the wound from worsening. It should be healed in about a month. If there's nothing else, you can leave now; I have other matters to attend to." Kal'tsit gave the order to leave.

Bai Jie wasn't surprised by this; he put on his coat and went out. Two minutes after Bai Jie left, Kal'tsit made a phone call: "Red, call Lappland over. I need her to explain to me what happened to the bite marks on Bai Jie's body."

P.S.: On my way home from evening self-study, something suddenly came to mind: I think I wrote some romance scenes with Lappland, just the very first few chapters, and that's when the idea for this side story came to me. I also just finished promoting Lappland to Elite 2 yesterday.

Section 317, Chapter 11: Did I steal the Sakura Empire's ship?

"Lord Fafnir...Lord Fafnir?"

A shout rang in his ears, and Bai Jie quickly snapped out of his thoughts: "Sorry, I was daydreaming. Where were we?"

"The five ships you ordered to be built are all completed. All that's left is for you to activate them before they can be launched," said the researcher in a white coat. "Are you going now?"

"Yes, thank you for your hard work."

After saying that, Bai Jie turned and left the research lab, heading towards the shipyard.

Three hours ago, due to Zuikaku's sudden intrusion, Bai Jie's interrogation of Akagi and Kaga had to come to an end. After Enterprise beat Zuikaku into the hospital again, Bai Jie took Enterprise to have lunch.

After lunch, Bai Jie let the company handle the task alone, while he went to the shipyard to inspect the progress of the five ships he had previously ordered to be built.

After all, this is my first full-strength fleet, so I naturally have to put some effort into it.

Now, on his way to the shipyard, Bai Jie wasn't thinking about his five ships, but about someone he hadn't seen in a long time.

"Why am I thinking about what happened in Chernobog now? Lappland..."

Bai Jie reached up and touched his neck. If he hadn't just remembered, he would have almost forgotten the mark that the crazy Lappland had left on him.

After hesitating for a moment, Bai Jie stopped against the wall, took out his phone, and made a call to Kal'tsit.

Not long after, Kal'tsit's voice came through: "Bai Jie? What's wrong? Why are you calling me all of a sudden?"

"Ah, no, it's just that I suddenly started thinking about... Exusiai and what happened with you guys." Bai Jie thought for a moment, but still didn't mention Lappland's name. "Just now, for some reason, I suddenly remembered something from a long time ago in Chernobog..."

"What? Just because of this? I thought you'd finally had a change of heart and remembered us, your fiancées who've been watching over you." Kal'tsit sighed. "Everything's fine. If there's anything wrong, it's just that we're all a little lonely without you around."

"Feel sorry."

"There's no need to apologize. I don't want you to stop because of us, and we'll catch up with you right away."

Chase after them.

Bai Jie immediately understood Kal'tsit's meaning. Just as Chen went to other worlds to improve himself so that he could reach the world where Bai Jie was, Kal'tsit and the others also planned to improve themselves in their own ways in order to catch up with Bai Jie.

"I wonder what kind of beings you will all become when I return to Gensokyo next time. Skadi and the others will probably be so strong that I will have to take them seriously."

Back on Rhodes Island, Skadi was one of the most powerful operators, with combat strength so great that she could even cause valleys to collapse, making her a veritable self-propelled demolition company.

Besides Skadi, Talulah and Frostnova are also similar. These two, who dragged Chernobog into the sea of ​​fire and then froze it completely, are probably on par with Skadi in terms of strength.

If these three had undergone the same or even greater trials as Chen Tong, Bai Jie couldn't even guess how much their strength would have increased.

Why are all my wives so strong-willed?

"Is everything alright? Then I'll hang up. I still have a few experiments to do here."

"Ah... um, sorry to bother you."

Bai Jie hung up the phone after saying this, and let out a long sigh: "I didn't even ask about anything related to Lappland, and I don't know how she is... Oh well, I'll talk about it when I get back to Rhodes Island. I'll go check on my ship first."

----------------

Bai Jie easily entered the shipyard and, after passing the identity check, arrived at the aerial corridor where he had summoned the company. Outside the railing of the aerial corridor, five ships that were not yet fully completed were waiting for Bai Jie to awaken them.

"So...which ships will we get this time? This is a five-pull, don't tell me I won't get a single golden ship!"

After rubbing his hands together, Bai Jie placed them on the authentication device beside him.

"Zheng—!"

A dazzling golden light shone forth, and one of the five ships was suddenly enveloped in golden radiance—excellent! The golden ship is now secure!

Bai Jie felt that his luck was pretty good, as his second ship was a golden legendary ship.

The humanoid figure gradually solidified in the golden light, finally landing in front of Bai Jie. Specks of golden light transformed into a rain of light that scattered, and upon seeing the revealed figure—

"What?!" Bai Jie blurted out in construction site English. "Zuihe, it's you?!"

The person standing in front of Bai Jie was none other than Ruihe, whom Bai Jie had captured!

"I was just lying in my hospital bed when I was suddenly summoned here..."

Ruihe's voice trailed off, and his face drained of color. Bai Jie also understood the current situation.

They both sensed the contractual connection they had established with each other; in other words—
