Chapter 434: Chapter 52: Physics, It No Longer Exists
Even through the screen, Li Yu could sense the smugness oozing from every word typed by Cola Bear.
Li Yu didn’t have the heart to immediately burst her bubble of joy, so he let her gloat for another five minutes before typing, "Yu Jiahao."
!!!!!!!!
Cola Bear hammered out seven exclamation marks at once, then adopted the stance of a DOTA player gearing up for a team fight. Her typing speed exploded.
"What the heck, how do you know this name?!"
"Do you know Yu Jiahao?"
"Have you been secretly investigating me?"
"No, that can’t be right. Even if you investigated me, you shouldn’t be able to trace it to Yu Jiahao. With so many boys in our class, why would you specifically mention his name?!"
"This is insane! This is insane! This is insane!!!"
"Who is he, the guy you had a crush on in high school?" asked Li Yu.
"Of course not, he is... Wait, you first tell me where you got this name from?"
"Gu Qian told me. She said this name was the secret code you both agreed on. If she really managed to reincarnate in another world, she would have me bring this name to you."
After Li Yu finished typing this message, Cola Bear fell into silence on the other end.
For a full ten minutes, not a single word came through.
So Li Yu took the initiative to type and ask, "What’s going on, are you having your friend contact that magician to debunk me again?"
"Wait a moment... I need to check my blood pressure first," replied Cola Bear.
Five minutes later, Cola Bear said, "I’ll check my heart rate too. It feels abnormally fast."
Then there was silence for a long quarter of an hour.
A quarter of an hour later, Cola Bear came back online, urgently shouting, "Send me another one."
"What?"
"That contract you gave me before. I threw it somewhere when I got home and now I can’t find it. Strange, I remember leaving it at my place."
"You might want to check the trash can," suggested Li Yu.
"What kind of person do you take me for! How could I possibly throw such an important thing in the trash can!" Cola Bear said indignantly. "This is about the happiness of my next life."
Half a minute later, she typed again, "Alright, I remember now. I think I put it on the coffee table and casually used it to wrap melon seed shells while eating seeds."
"No worries, I’ll send you another one," said Li Yu.
Cola Bear immediately sent over an emoticon of a big brother drinking a cold cola.
She then followed with, "I hereby declare that from today onwards, physics no longer exists. Deities, you’ll be the ones calling the shots on Earth."
"I can only offer you a bit of help after you die. While you’re alive, you’re not under my jurisdiction."
"That’s still pretty awesome!" Cola Bear once again showed her respect.
Although they both received messages from someone they knew after their death, unlike Lu Weijia, Gu Qian was hospitalized at the hospital where Cola Bear worked.
One could say she was constantly under Cola Bear’s watchful eye, while Li Yu rushed over from City B and briefly met with Gu Qian before leaving again. The next time he came was to take Gu Qian’s soul away.
The two hadn’t even exchanged phone numbers; it was all through Cola Bear passing messages back and forth, bridging the gap. In the meantime, Li Yu hadn’t privately visited Gu Qian either.
Li Yu still correctly recited the code that he had agreed upon with Gu Qian.
If this were a magic trick, then Cola Bear really couldn’t find any flaws at all.
It was too real.
Cola Bear could hear her own heart beating loudly in the room, and her fingers trembled slightly as she typed because it all went far beyond common sense.
It wasn’t just the excitement of having a place in the next life.
She had been a doctor for a while, and by all accounts should have grown accustomed to life and death like her seniors, knowing that when the workday ends, it’s time to eat, drink, and not carry too much psychological burden.
But perhaps because she wasn’t that old, Cola Bear always felt that some people shouldn’t die, that they shouldn’t pass away so young.
But medicine or perhaps science has rules and doesn’t shift according to an individual’s will.
If the illness is too severe or the injury too severe, you simply can’t save them.
No matter how unwilling you are, it’s futile.
As a medical student, Cola Bear rarely thought about what happens after death. That was a topic for philosophers and religious scholars, not for her.
In Cola Bear’s view, pondering such unanswerable questions was a pure waste of time.
Never had she imagined that one day she could learn the answer to this ultimate cosmic riddle.
After death, one goes to an otherworld called the Bratis Continent, or at least that’s one of the answers to this question.
Thinking of this, Cola Bear suddenly started giggling. She really wanted to see the expressions on the faces of those high monks, magicians, and great philosophers confronting this answer.
It would be quite a spectacle.
After her amusement, Cola Bear started to think of more things, realizing this was an opportunity, a chance to do something more.
To offer those on the brink of death another choice, at least in some way compensating for the regrets they would have leaving this world.
Cola Bear was so excited that her toes curled up. Remembering that Li Yu was waiting on the other end of the computer, she quickly typed, "Deity, how many can you take over?"
"I am not a deity, just a wage worker like you, and recruiting people to work as well," he replied.
"You jest, deity. You can even do telekinesis. Which wage worker can do that?" she retorted.
Li Yu decided not to dwell on this topic any longer and instead said, "You can report to me anyone you meet who meets the requirements, and my colleagues will verify them later.
"As for the final number, about four to five people a month should be about right."
The number was less than Cola Bear had anticipated, but working in the emergency room, under normal circumstances, the mortality rate of the patients she dealt with personally wasn’t that high.
However, the hospital where she worked was the largest in G city, with the strongest comprehensive capabilities. Many people with serious illnesses from nearby cities and even other provinces came here seeking a glimmer of hope.
If you include the death cases handled by her colleagues, the number would far exceed the given figure.
Cola Bear felt a hint of regret, but soon got excited again, typing, "Okay, I will pre-screen them for you, checking for any issues before reporting to you."
"Thank you for the trouble," Li Yu said.
"No trouble at all," Cola Bear quickly answered, her attitude towards Li Yu had undergone a complete one hundred and eighty-degree change from before.
Mainly because by now she had no clue what kind of being was on the other side of the screen, but it certainly didn’t seem like a carbon-based life form.
Li Yu sent Cola Bear another electronic version of the contract for her to sign as a form of payment for her help and casually asked, "What exactly is Yu Jiahao to you?"
"He was a boy who sat in front of me, a very good person with a strong physique. He was the physical education representative of our class. After running the three thousand meters in the school sports meet, he said he would rest in the dormitory for a while but never woke up again. That was partly why I decided to study medicine later on."
