Chapter 431 Estate and Heirs
The moment Shangguan He lay on the hospital bed.

Aside from him, all the other patients seemed to have a glint of shrewdness in their eyes.

Even though on the surface they haven't changed at all.

But everyone sensed it from the depths of their being—

He knew his time was drawing near.

Death, this word may be the end of fear for ordinary people.

But for the patients in this ward who should have died long ago, but have been surviving due to the "Supreme Blessing" and suffering endless torment from their illnesses.

Death has become a kind of gospel.

Just like when Wu Wang came before, these patients did not ask to be cured, but simply to be freed.

At this moment, everyone turned their attention to Wu Wang, the young man they scoffed at, believing he was no match for Shangguan He.

He came to keep his promise.

"how did you do that?"

The patient who had previously spoken with Wu Wang slowly began to speak.

However, Wu Wang simply shook his head and said, "I didn't do anything; it was Shangguan He's own decision."

After saying that, he pointed to the hospital bed next to him.

However, the hatred that everyone felt for Shangguan He did not erupt as expected.

Every patient looked at Shangguan He with a complicated expression.

Some people felt sorry for him, some mourned him, and some even looked at him with pity.

There was no hatred.

Perhaps, at this moment, the person lying there is no longer the high and mighty, mad doctor who yearns to seize the secrets of heaven and change everything.

Instead, it was a patient like them, who was about to die from the disease.

They are equal now; no one is more noble than the other.

Identity, status, and even wealth.

The standards by which these patients measured their own worth before their passing have vanished at this moment, leaving only heavy breathing and a heartbeat that gradually slows until it stops.

"Young lady...you are...Dr. Jiang's daughter?"

"Your name is Jiang Rou, right?"

Suddenly, the elderly man with late-stage Alzheimer's disease looked at Jiang Rou and asked a question.

She nodded hesitantly.

The old man said with emotion, "Can I trouble you with something?"

"Please speak," Jiang Rou said solemnly, turning her head to listen.

Unexpectedly, the old woman simply pointed to the boy with leukemia hiding beside her.

He smiled and said with his almost toothless mouth, "Dr. Shangguan is actually almost cured of him."

"If possible, please don't let this little brat come down to find us old folks so soon."

"Please, please save him, I beg you."

Upon hearing this, the other patients nearby also laughed:

"Yes, this little rascal is still too young."

"He hadn't really come to know the world yet; his entire childhood was wasted in hospital disinfectant and on the operating table."

"Jiang Rou, oh no, I should say Dr. Jiang Rou, please save him."

"Let him see more beauty for us who are about to die."

"..."

Some of the patients' pleas left Jiang Rou at a loss.

In essence, she was still just a child, having wasted countless years on the island.

Even in normal life, he would probably only be a recent college graduate.

She also has postgraduate and doctoral entrance exams to look forward to in the future, and Shangguan He has a lot to say about this.

But those repeated calls of "Dr. Jiang Rou" made her reluctant to refuse.

Yes, Father is gone.

Now I am the new Dr. Jiang.

Snapped--

Wu Wang put his hand on her shoulder.

He said somewhat casually, "Hasn't Shangguan He already set an example by doing what you want to do, or what you think is right?"

Jiang Rou looked at Shangguan He, who had fallen into a deep sleep, but a relaxed smile was on his lips.

Doing the right thing...

A determined glint flashed in her eyes.

Looking at the boy with leukemia squatting at his feet, he tried his best to put on a kind smile and asked:

"Little friend, would you be willing to grant their request?"

She did not immediately decide whether to agree or not from the doctor's perspective.

Instead, they consulted the boy with leukemia himself.

This is the first time I've heard someone care about what I think.

The boy with leukemia was taken aback at first.

Then, she asked timidly, "Then... if you save me, will I still be forced to do those painful things?"

Yes, this is especially true for a child whose mind is not yet fully developed.

His concept of death was very vague.

Or rather, he didn't actually have the same genuine desire to die as other patients.

He's just afraid of pain.

During the process of researching his illness, Shangguan He was terrified by the repeated experiments.

Now he's only asking the questions that concern him most.

Jiang Rou shook her head and said, "No, it won't hurt anymore."

At this point, Wu Wang also gave her a strange look.

It would be a lie to say that treating this terminal illness is completely painless.

This girl actually dared to make such a promise.

It seems she has found her path.

Hearing what Jiang Rou said, the boy with leukemia smiled and nodded:

"Okay, then I won't die."

Upon hearing this, all the patients in the ward burst into laughter.

Especially the elderly man with Alzheimer's disease who liked to sit by the window and look into the distance.

He waved to Wu Wang and the others.

She said softly, "Then let's go out."

"Take the hope and vitality of life to the distance, and don't let us old fogies affect you."

"Our time is almost up."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Rou's eyes reddened slightly.

She also spent a considerable amount of time at the Ome Clinic.

I naturally feel a sense of closeness to these patients.

But the current outcome is irreversible.

She could only lower her head, take the hand of the boy with leukemia, and walk with slightly heavy steps out of the ward.

creak-

I listened as the ward door slowly closed, finally making the click sound of it locking.

She knew that the line between life and death was indistinct at this moment.

Outside the door is life; inside the door is death.

Looking at her, she seemed to have something on her mind.

Wu Wang shrugged and said:

"Alright, don't let their good intentions go to waste. The people inside are all your teachers."

Jiang Rou was somewhat puzzled: "Teacher?"

Immediately afterwards, Wu Wang looked up at the boundless starry sky in the corridor.

He said, word by word, "They taught you your first lesson as a doctor—learn how to face death properly."

Looking at Wu Wang's slightly forlorn figure.

Jiang Rou suddenly realized that these words were not only spoken to her, but also to him.

Yes, at the moment the other person woke me up.

Even if you don't know the other person's specific past.

But Jiang Rou also felt the same way about the shared emotions.

It was a profound sadness hidden beneath a calm exterior.

Just like when a close relative dies, you don't feel anything at first.

Only after everything has calmed down.

One afternoon, you hear the gentle breeze rustling the curtains, the washing machine humming, the kettle steaming in the kitchen, and the sunlight streaming into the warm balcony. You instinctively open your mouth to call out, but no one answers. You freeze, realizing that all of this is a reminder that someone important has left.

A profound emptiness and loneliness can suddenly envelop a person, leaving them feeling completely drained, as if their heart has been struck by a heavy blow.

When I came to my senses, tears were already streaming down my face.

His father had only passed away a few days ago.

And this is Mr. Yan, who saved Happiness Island.

He has felt this sorrow for countless years, never forgetting a single moment of it.

That's why Jiang Rou had previously told Erbadao and Bai Jun that Yan Shuangying was more pitiful than herself. She watched Wu Wang turn and leave.

Jiang Rou suddenly shouted, "Mr. Yan! I've made up my mind too!"

“I will stay on the island, seeking pain while also trying to accept bliss. I will combine the two. I do not want my patients to suffer undeserved pain, nor will I let them indulge in false bliss.”

"I want to choose the first path you offer to Dr. Shangguan."

Upon hearing this, Wu Wang paused slightly in his forward stride.

Then he turned around and said with a smile, "Then let me ask you, if there were an operation and you were asked whether to save the mother or the child, what would you choose?"

Suddenly faced with this unexpected question.

Jiang Rou was a little confused.

But I still answered immediately:
"Mr. Yan, that's just a scene used in movies and TV dramas to create strong dramatic conflict and emotional tension. In reality, neither from a legal nor a medical perspective, this situation would occur. Mother and baby can be taken care of at the same time..."

Before she could finish explaining the medical details...

Wu Wang interrupted:
"Paul Korchagin."

Jiang Rou: "?"

(Brain unresponsive.jpg)

"Oh, by the way, the one being wheeled into the operating room is Optimus Prime; he's giving birth to SpongeBob," Wu Wang added.

Jiang Rou has completely crashed.

In response, Wu Wangcai smiled and said, "Your answer is also very good; that's what I was thinking too."

"Pain can feel like being torn apart, but love can also make flesh and blood grow back. The two can coexist."

"But what I want to say now is - don't put too much pressure on yourself, and relax and have some fun when appropriate."

"Don't forget that the purest happiness should come from the most ordinary life. Don't let your goals be too lofty and detach you from life."

"Go to this place after everything on the island has been settled."

After saying that, he handed Jiang Rou a map of the island.

The location of the Cave of Pain is marked with a red circle above.

I believe this place will allow Jiang Rou to better experience both suffering and bliss.

He then went downstairs and left the inpatient department.

Erbadao and Baijun followed behind Wu Wang.

They would occasionally turn back to look at the girl standing by the corridor, watching their backs.

He asked with some concern, "Brother Yan'er, are you really alright? Sending such a young girl to explore such a dangerous power..."

Perhaps it's because everything I experienced here was too close to reality.

So much so that for a moment, Erbadao even forgot that Jiang Rou was not one of them and felt worried about her.

Even this place isn't reality.

This is the instance world.

Wu Wang shrugged and replied:

“She’s already made a decision. Do you understand what a decision means? She’s just informing me, not asking me.”

"Besides, what's wrong with the little girl?"

"She is the last legacy Jiang Sze left in this world, and the inheritor of Shangguan He's lofty goals."

“She is qualified to possess both pain and bliss.”

"Trust me, she will become the best doctor here."

Upon hearing this, Erbadao said no more.

But the white falcon still had one question.

He looked at the tasks on his panel, scratched his head, and asked in confusion:

"Brother Yan, how should we proceed with the dungeon now?"

After all, their main mission is to become the happiest person on the island.

It doesn't mean killing the dungeon boss.

Ultimately, the current players have not completed the mission.

They don't even know how to complete this happiness index task.

To this, Wu Wang rolled his eyes and looked at them as if they were idiots, saying:

"Isn't that simple? Before, the island was full of happy people, making it extremely difficult to complete the main quest. Constantly increasing the happiness index will only lead to a downward spiral like Huo Miao."

"Since there's no way to be happier than others."

"Then why not make them suffer even more than you?"

These words immediately drew disdainful looks from Erbadao and Baijun.

Sure enough, Yan Shuangying's thought process is not that of a normal person.

No wonder he didn't choose to wear an olive wreath at first.

This guy never intended to increase his own happiness index; instead, he wanted to ruin and lower other people's happiness index.

What the hell is this if not a demon?
"Now almost everyone on the island is in a coma and unable to perceive the outside world, and Jiang Rou is still immersed in the feeling of life and death."

"So, you just need to think of any happy thing, and you will be the happiest person on this island."

After saying that, Wu Wang looked at Bai Jun.

Clearly, the quickest way to make this love-struck person happy is to recall their past with Coco Lin.

Sure enough, when the white falcon actually did so.

The prompt from the Spirit Disaster game immediately echoed in my mind—

【You have completed the main mission】

[You can stay in the current instance for up to 2 hours]

[Do you want to leave the instance now? ]

This made him ecstatic.

But then he immediately sensed something was wrong, frowned and asked, "Then... if I become the person with the highest happiness index here right now, how will you guys pass the level, Brother Yan?"

Even the second-rate swordsman was taken aback.

Yes! Every player's mission is to become the person with the highest happiness index.

But the highest level means that it can only be one person.

Now that White Falcon has become the highest-ranking player, aren't the other players doomed?

In response, Wu Wang said with exasperation, "Then get lost!"

"What are you staying for? If you just choose to leave, your spot on Happiness Island will be empty, right? Then you, you idiot, can be the happiest one again, and we can take turns!"

A word to awaken the dreamer.

White Falcon and Second-hand Swords immediately realized that they were bound by the inertia of their previous dungeon-clearing strategies.

They always thought that either team-based tasks meant everyone had to work together, or competitive tasks could only have one winner.

But I never even considered it—

Everyone takes turns sitting on the victor's throne!

But this method is something no normal person could come up with!

The prerequisite for completing this step is that Yan Shuangying really wreaked havoc on everyone on the entire island, including the dungeon boss!

Although I was inwardly complaining.

But even under Wu Wang's disapproving gaze, Bai Jun resolutely chose "yes".

"Brother Yan! I can't thank you enough! Let's add each other as friends after we get out of here. If there's anything I can do for you in the future, just let me know!"

After saying that, his figure disappeared from the spot.

Player White Falcon #98676 has successfully exited the instance.

Seeing this, Erbadao repeated the process.

Finally, with snot and tears streaming down his face, he begged Yan'er to add him as a friend before he left.

After seeing Wu Wang's friend request sent.

Only then did he feel relieved enough to leave the instance.

[Player #22222 has successfully exited the instance]

Finally, the entrance to the [Ome Clinic].

Now only Wu Wang was left.

However, he did not choose to recall certain happy moments to exit the instance.

After all, the eldest sister's island spirit hasn't been completely rescued yet.

Moreover, there are still a few players on the island who need to deal with the Spirit Disaster before they can leave.
