When I woke up, I was back in the room with white tiles.
I was in a bed with an IV drip in my arm and a bandage wrapped tightly around my chest and shoulder.
Was it all just my imagination? I had an accident on my way home from work and was in the hospital after a long dream. That’s it. It had to be it. There’s no way Google Spreadsheets would be run by the souls of Excel experts.
“Uwa, that was rough.”
My wishful thinking was shattered by Inoue, who suddenly opened the door and walked in. Well, to be honest, this was my second time, so I didn’t hold high expectations.
“You slept for three days.”
“Um, what happened? I was supposed to be processing D functions, but then something happened right after…”
“You were attacked by a DPRODUCT and collapsed. Please thank me for bringing you back while covered in blood.”
“Thank you very much. By the way, what is a D…PRODUCT? I understand generally what it does, but why would someone use such an elaborate function?”
“Honestly, it was the first time I’ve seen one as well. Well, to be exact, it was invisible and I brought you back immediately after taking you out of the sheet, so I didn’t really see it.”
“Eh? Then Saito-san handled the DPRODUCT on his own?”
“Yes, it seems like a lot of powerful functions started popping up since then and it became a big problem. He finally came back yesterday.”
Had he really been fighting for two days? I really don’t think we’re the same kind of worker after all.
“Then, please rest up. We’ll have another quest to do when you get back.”
“Yes, thanks for your hard work.”
Over the next three days, I thoroughly enjoyed my second stay in the hospital as a worker. I looked up ‘That Time I was Reincarnated as a Slime’ on Google Play and found that the MC had become the lord of a country and was being held by a big-breasted demon. On the other hand, I had been slashed in the chest by a DPRODUCT and was in the hospital.
On a related note, in the dinosaur game, I was miraculously able to get a high score of 38,122 points during my hospitalisation.
