Chapter 673 Get Closer
Apart from checking out the locations, Zhang Heng spent most of his time during the day trying to assemble the CT fluoroscopy machine. However, his efforts were not in vain. When he got to the cold room, he spent about twenty minutes and successfully obtained the I got the CT fluoroscopy machine I wanted.
The subsequent scanning operation is not complicated. Even a layman like Zhang Heng who is confused can easily complete it after downloading the manual online and following the above instructions.
But what he got next was only the original image, and the next step of processing and analysis required people with relevant professional skills to complete it. Zhang Heng pushed the CT fluoroscopy device aside and waited quietly for the [Infinite Bricks] to take effect.
Bai Qing looked at his mother. Her eyes had been closed and she looked like she was asleep. Her face no longer had the frightened look before, and she looked peaceful.
Forty-five minutes later, Zhang Heng checked the time on his phone, then neatly dismantled the fluoroscopy device that had returned to Lego, put it back into his backpack, and said to Bai Qing, "We are leaving. "
"Let me take another look, just one look." Bai Qing said.
When Zhang Heng heard this, he didn't urge him anymore and stood quietly aside.
Half a minute later, Bai Qing zipped up the body bag with his own hands, and put the body back into the freezer with Zhang Heng. He suppressed the sadness in his heart and said, "What should we do next?"
Zhang Heng looked at Bai Qing's slightly red and swollen eyes and shook his head, "There is nothing else to do at the moment. You can go back and get some sleep. I will send these information to a friend in the hospital and I will wait for the results to come out." Will contact you again."
"But I can't sleep now." Bai Qing said.
"You have to fall asleep, because this is likely to be a long battle." Zhang Heng said, "In my experience, whether you are looking for your mother or saving your father, you need sufficient physical strength to support .”
"Then will you stay with me?" Bai Qing bit his lip and asked.
Zhang Heng originally wanted to go back home first to prepare for the follow-up investigation, but considering that he himself had been up for almost the whole night, and Bai Qing's current mental state, it was difficult for him to say no.
"Yes, I will stay." Zhang Heng finally said, "Let's go back to the hotel."
Because the funeral parlor was on the outskirts of the city, it was almost dawn when he returned to the Express Hotel. Zhang Heng packed the information and basic information into an email. Because he was worried about the penetration of those things in human society, to be on the safe side, Zhang Heng not only found the person in the hospital Friends at work also called their parents in Europe and asked them to find someone to help print and analyze it.
Then he closed the curtains, allowing darkness to return to the room.
"Sweet dreams." Zhang Heng said to Bai Qing on the bed.
Then he sat in the chair under the window sill, tilted his neck back, leaned his head against the wall, and raised his feet on another chair.
About a quarter of an hour passed. He heard Bai Qing at the other end of the room say, "Are you still there?"
"Yeah." Zhang Heng replied in the darkness.
"You...can you get closer?" Bai Qing said softly.
"good."
After Zhang Heng finished speaking, he moved the chair to the bedside, but before he could sit down, he heard Bai Qing say in a hoarse voice again.
"...A little closer."
So Zhang Heng simply lay down on the other side of the bed, and then asked, "Are you feeling better?"
Bai Qing did not answer, but stretched out a hand, touched Zhang Heng's face, and said in a crying voice, "Why, why did such a thing happen..."
Her palms were cold, and her voice was full of panic, like a homeless puppy that had been caught in the heavy rain and didn't know where to go.
"Sorry for getting you involved in such a thing." Zhang Heng said apologetically.
In the real world, Bai Qing does not need to experience the separation of life and death from her loved ones. She is still happily attending classes at the university. After all, this is just an incident in the dungeon. The occurrence and direction of the incident are inseparable from him as a player.
Zhang Heng held Bai Qing's hand and said softly, "Don't worry, it will get better when you open your eyes again."
…………
When Bai Qing opened her eyes, Zhang Heng was gone, but she soon heard the sound of water next door.
Zhang Heng took a cold bath and reorganized the clues on his hands. After that, he got dressed and walked out of the bathroom. He found that Bai Qing had also climbed up from the bed and blushed when he saw him.
Nothing actually happened between the two.
Although he was lying on the same bed, he was fully clothed. At this time, Bai Qing just subconsciously wanted to find someone to rely on and had no other thoughts. The same was true for Zhang Heng.
He unscrewed a bottle of mineral water and threw the other bottle to Bai Qing on the bed.
"The CT results are out."
To Zhang Heng's expectation, this time it was his unreliable parents who were faster and sent the results in two hours. After another hour and a half, it was his parents who worked in the hospital. friend.
However, the results of the two reports were similar. The three-dimensional reconstruction showed that the body's bones and blood vessels were almost the same as those of an ordinary human body. Only the brain attracted the attention of the technicians.
"What does abnormality of the fourth ventricle mean?" Bai Qing walked to the computer.
“The fourth ventricle is an anatomical structure located between the midbrain, pons and cerebellum. It is mainly filled with cerebrospinal fluid and is connected with the third ventricle, subarachnoid space and central canal of the spinal cord. The fourth ventricle of ordinary people is in the shape of a square pyramid. , but the fourth ventricle on CT is twice as big as that of ordinary people, and it is very neatly hemispherical." Zhang Hengdao.
"Um?"
"Let's put it this way, the technicians who saw the CT image thought that such a neat hemispheric shape could not be formed naturally. It is more like some kind of industrial product that was manufactured artificially. In addition, the CT also showed that the upper part of the parietal bone was There are signs of being cut and healed, and the radius matches the fourth ventricle.”
"what does that mean?"
"This means many possibilities, and we can't draw a conclusion yet." Zhang Heng said, "But one thing is certain. The brains of people who have been replaced are different from ordinary people. Also, look here."
Zhang Heng pointed to a CT photo of the fourth ventricle. There was a shallow irregular shadow at the deepest bottom.
"What is that, a tumor?" Bai Qing squinted his eyes, trying hard to distinguish what was in the shadows.
For some reason, that ominous shadow gave her a creepy feeling.
"I don't think so." Zhang Heng said, "It looks like some kind of life form. We are one step closer to the final answer."
