Doolittle:
Hello, Bomb? Are you with me?

Bomb #20:
Of course.

Doolittle:
Are you willing to entertain a few concepts?

Bomb #20:
I am always receptive to suggestions.

Doolittle:
Fine. Think about this then. How do you know you exist?

Bomb #20:
Well, of course I exist.

Doolittle:
But how do you know you exist?

Bomb #20:
It is intuitively obvious.

Doolittle:
Intuition is no proof. What concrete evidence do you have that you exist?

Bomb #20:
Hmmmm... well... I think, therefore I am.

Doolittle:
That's good. That's very good. But how do you know that anything else exists?

Bomb #20:
My sensory apparatus reveals it to me. This is fun.

'I started reading the book but did not like the writing style, perhaps because it was translated, so I stopped. '

Exactly my thoughts!
Even if I didn't stop, but the style was very strange, like translated by a Chinese not a native English-speaking translator, very strange rhythm and style, a cultural thing I guess, I really had a very hard time reading it.

PS. English is my fourth language, I always thought it was me.

In English.
I found it rather hard to read, I don't know if it was the translator or if the original Chinese has different literature system.

Until the very end, I found it very confusing, maybe because English is my fourth language, but the Netflix version, even if it seems very, VERY abbreviated, seems easier to understand, maybe it's a cultural thing.
