Chapter 1186 Melanie & Chelsea: Identity Loss in Digital Quarrels

As Chelsea's explosive output came to an end.

Melanie was scolded to the point of choking, but in less than a moment, the two of them started arguing again!

The husband insisted that he was right, and the wife insisted that she was right. Neither of them showed any intention of giving in. Finally, they both turned to Susie and asked, "Lord Yama, who do you think is right?"

Susie: "..."

Who is right?

In that instant, Susie was taken in, thinking about Melanie's perspective on one side and Chelsea's perspective on the other side, comparing the two, looking for any logical loopholes, and figuring out what was wrong...

Mitch frowned, about to remind Susie...

But in that instant, she suddenly realized, "No, why should I judge which of these two viewpoints is right?!"

In this matter, she should not have been the one to judge who was right or wrong.

A thousand people have a thousand different thoughts. In their own absolute perspective, their opinions are naturally considered absolutely correct.

Just like someone who has only seen watermelons with red flesh since childhood, they would confidently assert that the flesh of watermelons is red. They would get upset with anyone who tells them that the flesh of watermelons is yellow.

But those who have seen yellow-skinned watermelons will only think that this person is sick! Ignorant and stubborn, unable to reason.

So she didn't need to judge which viewpoint was correct at all. Melanie and Chelsea died by falling into the river while fighting each other, theoretically making both of their deaths homicides.

You killed me, I killed you. This evens things out, equal treatment, nothing more to say.

What she wants to see now is only the past of the two, whether they have committed sins, whether they have done things that would lead them to hell.

She was a Yama, responsible for judging whether they should go to hell and what kind of reincarnation they should have. That's all!

And all of these have ready-made regulations, just flip through the book.

Susie immediately flipped through the book.

Melanie below: "..."

Chelsea: "?"

Susie flipped through the book and said, "Instead of your right or wrong, I am more curious about where your faces went."

Mitch on one side felt both relieved and sad. Even though she was only eight years old, she understood things better than many adults.

Is the world of children perhaps inherently simpler than that of adults? Does that make their thoughts relatively simple as well?

Mitch withdrew his thoughts and looked at Melanie and Chelsea, "Did you lose your faces?"

He flipped through the book of life and death, as if he had a sudden realization.

Chelsea and Melanie looked at each other in confusion and said, "I don't know where my face went either..."

They fought and fell into the river. Even in the river, they were still angry and started pinching each other. They pulled and tugged at each other, and in the end, both of them drowned.

Looking back before the fight, both of their faces were still there.

Mitch asked, "Before dying, you can't see your own face, right? The last thing you see is the other person's face."

Melanie remained silent, and Chelsea also stayed quiet.

This is not it. Even when splashing in the river, they still wanted to kill each other, staring at each other, refusing to give in without looking at each other's breath.

Susie wondered, "Micky, so where were their faces?"

Kellen leisurely spoke, "Their faces were reflected in each other's eyes."

They both fell into the river and were about to drown, yet they were still fighting each other, forgetting who they were but only remembering who the other person was.

This is really, for the sake of a few words of argument, ultimately forgetting who one is.

Typically, lost in this information-explosive online world.

Mitch continued Kellen's words and said lightly, "That's right, they are the representatives of countless online friends who quarrel with each other."

Rather than saying their faces were in each other's eyes, it is more accurate to say their faces were blurred by thousands and thousands of people like them.

People may not remember who they were arguing with under the comments online, but they will definitely remember what stupid things someone said that they couldn't tolerate.

In the past, the older generation in the village used to quarrel and remember who that idiot was.

In the present era, when people on the internet argue, they just curse and that's it. After cursing, they may not even remember the other person's username.

Susie realized, "So everyone lost their face and forgot who they were."

Mitch nodded.

Melanie and Chelsea both looked bewildered, their faces reflecting confusion in each other's eyes.

Where did the eyes come from when the other person's face was gone?

Susie waved her hand and said, "Go find your own face, go back and die again, come back when you find your face."

"Missing any part is not conducive to reincarnation."

"Of course, if you want to be directly reincarnated, your face might be ruined in the next life."

For example, Chloe, who was just killed by a car, let's assume that when she was hit, she lost a finger that was never found, and she went straight to reincarnation.

In the next life, there would definitely be a missing finger, with other missing parts corresponding to respective disabilities or defects.

Melanie and Chelsea both fell silent, no longer pinching each other, but muttering and grumbling under their breath, they both went up to confront each other.

Susie's heart fluttered, and she said, "Devoted grandfather, come up and have a look!"

The infatuated ghost stood up, crossed his hands, and floated out slowly, saying, "Alright then."
