Gu Tu realized that he had become a celebrity overnight. His name repeatedly appeared on all major social media.
However, the reason for his fame was not because he had made great achievements or founded a company that aimed to become the best employer in the world. The reason why people remembered him was because he was the first person in human history to be rescued from the crematorium.
"Gu Tu is the boss of a start-up company. He suddenly vomited blood and fell to the ground while interviewing a candidate.
"The candidate immediately sent him to the hospital, but the doctors found that he had been dead for a long time.
"His parents held a simple farewell ceremony for him, and then his body was sent to the crematorium for cremation.
"Just as the body was pushed into the crematorium, something strange happened.
" His body suddenly convulsed violently. Four of the five staff members at the scene immediately wet their pants. The remaining staff member only wet his thighs because he didn't wear any underwear that day.
"The staff determined that he was still alive, so they sent him back to the hospital.
"But after returning to the hospital, his body did not have any reaction. The instrument showed that all his vital signs had disappeared, but his body did not show signs of decay, which puzzled the medical staff. After receiving the news, medical experts from all over the world flew to the city to discuss the situation of the ancient path.
"Just last night, without any warning, Gu Tu suddenly woke up, but all his signs returned to normal. The medical world currently has no reasonable explanation for this…"
That was what the report said.
Gu Tu deduced that his " body " was dancing in the crematorium because Regina had " counter-summoned " Goodwin in the other world, so Gu Tu's body in this world had a reaction. However, because Goodwin refused to be " counter-summoned," Gu Tu did not wake up immediately until Goodwin completely disappeared from the other world.
If Regina hadn't summoned him back then, Gu Tu would have been in an urn by now. Although time passed faster in the Otherworld than in reality, it was still dangerous to stay in the Otherworld for a long time.
The past few days after his resurrection had been a little…noisy. His parents were always by his side, never leaving him until it was time to sleep. Every few minutes, professors and scholars from various countries would come to inspect him. It was impossible for him to be discharged from the hospital. Besides, he had a history of sneaking away from the hospital, and the nurses were watching him all the time.
However, if Gu Tu really wanted to leave, they couldn't stop him.
One night, he suddenly wanted to go outside for some fresh air, so he jumped out of the window and escaped from the hospital building.
He lived on the 14th floor, but with the Soul Imprint strengthening his body, climbing the hospital with his bare hands was not a problem. Furthermore, he had the Mark of the Stars. As long as he built a bridge with starlight, he could walk in the air.
The night breeze was slightly chilly. He felt that it had been a long time since he had the wind from this world. He couldn't tell if the wind in the two worlds was different, but the wind in his hometown had a nostalgic taste.
However, he also smelled something strange in the wind.
He subconsciously activated the Wind-reading Seal and saw traces of magic in the air. He rubbed his eyes to make sure that he was not seeing things. In the real world, he saw traces of magic.
The trace of magic turned in the air and then pointed at his pants pocket.
He dug into his pocket and took out the black Wheel of Fortune card. So the magic aura was coming from it.
At the same time he took out the card, it started to burn, almost instantly burning itself clean, turning into a wisp of smoke. The light smoke went with the wind and slipped out of the hospital's wall.
Therefore, he also climbed over the wall and avoided the reporters who were lying in ambush outside.
It was late at night, and there were not many people on the street outside the courtyard. He strolled along the long street, enjoying the hard-earned peace.
Suddenly, he felt someone looking at him. He turned his head and saw someone on the other side of the road.
The man stood under the streetlight. He had big wavy hair, black glasses, and a cotton shirt. His hands were casually stuffed into the pockets of his jeans.
"We will meet again after you have experienced the story depicted on these three cards.”
…Cheng Wuji?
He ran across the road.
However, on the originally empty road, a van suddenly rushed over and blocked in front of them.
The truck followed another truck. Another truck followed.
They walked past in rows, almost forming a train.
When the long line of trucks finally cleared, she was no longer on the other side of the road.
He sighed and continued to walk.
Suddenly, someone patted his shoulder. He turned around and saw Cheng Wuji.
"Hi ~" She waved at him. "Shall we have a cup of tea together?"
He followed her into an oddly decorated teahouse. Skulls, totems, or heraldry hung on the walls.
He ordered a cup of black tea while she ordered a glass of milk.
"Don't you like drinking tea?" he asked.
"Milk helps you sleep." she said.
Since she had come to the teahouse, she would definitely not order tea. This was Cheng Wuji's style.
"How have you been recently?" Cheng Wuji stirred the milk with one hand and propped his cheek with the other, looking at him with interest.
Upon closer inspection, Cheng Wuji was indeed very beautiful. She was definitely not the kind of girl from a wealthy family, but she had her own characteristics.
"It's hard to say if it's good or bad." Gu Tu looked into the distance. "In terms of results, it's far from good. But I won't regret what happened.”
"Oh, I can't wait to hear your story. Shh, but don't say it out loud." She snapped her fingers at the waiter. "Let me guess."
The waiter took the hint and handed her a box of black cards.
"Are you also a regular customer of this shop?" Gu Tu asked.
"Yes, when I lack inspiration, I will come here to drink tea.”She shuffled the cards, cut them, and handed them to Gu Tu.
"You drink tea too?" Gu Tu took out three cards and returned them to Cheng Wuji.
"I don't like to drink 'tea', but sometimes I come to the shop to' drink tea'.”Cheng Wuji took the cards and lined them up. "You know the difference, right?"
"I think so…"
Cheng Wuji flipped open the first card. On the card, angels and demons were fighting, and behind them were all living beings.
"The name of this card is World.”Cheng Wuji glanced at Gu Tu. "Your story happened here, right?”
"Yes." Gu Tu's thoughts flew to the endless fields.
"Next, I can answer two of your questions.”Cheng Wuji said. " Two questions regarding this 'world'.”
" I want to know." Gu Tu stared at the cards and said. " Who won the war between the angels and the demons?”
"Oh, so you didn't see the end of the war.”
Cheng Wuji flipped open the second card. This card was very simple and crude, with only a square box drawn on it.
"The name of this card is 'Cat'.”she said.
"…This is clearly a box."
"No, it's a cat, it's Schrodinger's cat.”
Schrodinger's Cat was a thought experiment in quantum mechanics. There was a cat in the box whose life and death were unknown. If people opened the box, they would either see a live cat or a dead cat. But before opening the box, we can see it as a cat in a state of life and death.
"So, does this card mean that it doesn't know who will win in the end?”Gu Tu complained.
"Do you know the nickname of Schrodinger's Cat?”
"What?"
"It's also known as the Cat of Hope.”
"There's no such nickname. Did you just come up with this?"
"Don't give up hope, Gu Tu." Cheng Wuji looked into his eyes and said slowly. " The cat in the box will not die. If you have a glimmer of hope in your heart, the possibility of 'reunion' is still open to you.”
"How do I return to that world?”Gu Tu asked.
"Is this your third question?”Thus, Cheng Wuji flipped open the third card. On the card was a mage chanting a spell, and above her head was the symbol of Infinity.
"This card is…Magician?”
"Or we can call it Summoner.”Cheng Wuji said. "You were able to enter that 'world' because someone called you. Then, as long as someone calls you again, you can return there.”
"There are no more people who can call out to me.”Gu Tu said sadly.
"Don't jump to conclusions so quickly. Remember, hope is always there." Cheng Wuji handed the picture of the cat with the box to Gu Tu.
Gu Tu looked at her.
"This is a gift for you. Take it." she said.
Gu Tu finally took the card.
"We had a good chat today." Cheng Wuji stood up. "Then, see you next time."
"…Who are you?" Gu Tu asked her.
"This isn't one of those two problems.”Cheng Wuji said.
Gu Tu was speechless.
"However, it doesn't matter if I tell you.”she added. "I'm an astrologer and a programmer.”
Then, she walked away.
This time, she did not pay for her drink.
