Chapter 34: A Little Closer
In addition to stepping on the spot, Zhang Heng's daytime was basically spent trying to assemble the CT fluoroscopy instrument, but his efforts were not in vain, and when he arrived at the cold room, he spent about twenty minutes and successfully got the CT fluoroscopy he wanted.
And the operation of the next scanning is not complicated, even if Zhang Heng is a layman who is halfway crammed, he can easily complete it by downloading the manual on the Internet and following the instructions above.
But then he got his hands on the original image, and the next step of processing and analysis needs to be done by someone with relevant expertise. Zhang Heng pushed the CT fluoroscopy instrument aside, quietly waiting for the action time of the [Infinite Building Blocks] to pass,
Bai Qing looked at her mother, her eyes were closed, she looked as if she was asleep, and her face no longer had the frightened look she had before, and she looked full of peace.
After another forty-five minutes, Zhang Heng glanced at the time on his phone, and then neatly disassembled the perspective instrument that had been turned back into Lego, put it back in his backpack, and said to Bai Qing, "We're leaving." ”
"Let me take another look, just one look." Bai Qing said.
Zhang Heng didn't urge anymore when he heard this, and stood aside quietly.
Half a minute later, Bai Qing personally zipped the body bag, and put the body back in the freezer with Zhang Heng, holding back the sadness in his heart, "What are we going to do next?" ”
Zhang Heng looked at Bai Qing's slightly red and swollen eyes, and shook his head, "There is nothing else to do for the time being, you go back to sleep first, I will send these materials to a friend in the hospital, and I will contact you again when the results come out." ”
"But I can't sleep right now." Pak Tsing Road.
"You've got to fall asleep because it's going to be a long battle." Zhang Heng said, "In my experience, whether it is looking for your mother or saving your father, you need sufficient physical strength to support you. ”
"Will you stay with me, then?" Bai Qing bit his lip and said.
Zhang Heng originally wanted to go home first and prepare for the follow-up investigation, but considering that he himself hadn't slept all night, and Bai Qing's current mental state made it difficult for him to refuse.
"Yes, I will stay." Zhang Heng finally said, "Let's go back to the hotel." ”
Because the funeral home is on the outskirts of the city, it is almost dawn when he returns 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, for the sake of insurance, Zhang Heng not only found the friend who worked in the hospital, but also called his parents who were far away in Europe and asked them to find someone to help print and analyze.
Then he closed the curtains and let the room go back to darkness.
"Good dreams." Zhang Heng said to Bai Qing on the bed.
He then sat down in a chair under the windowsill, leaned his neck back, and leaned his head against the wall, with his feet cocked on the other chair.
About a quarter of an hour passed. He heard Bai Qing at the other end of the room speak, "Are you still there?" ”
"Hmm." Zhang Heng replied in the dark.
"You...... Can you get closer? Bai Qing said softly.
"Okay."
After Zhang Heng finished speaking, he moved the chair to the side of the bed, but before he could sit down, he heard Bai Qing say in a somewhat hoarse voice.
“…… A little closer. ”
So Zhang Heng simply lay down on the other side of the bed, and then asked, "Is it better?" ”
Bai Qing didn't answer, just stretched out a hand, touched Zhang Heng's face, and said in a crying voice, "Why, why did this happen......
Her palms were cold, and her voice was full of panic, like a homeless puppy in the heavy rain, not knowing where to go.
"I'm sorry to get you involved in something like this." Zhang Heng said apologetically.
Bai Qing in the real world doesn't need to experience the life and death of her loved ones at all, and now she is still happily attending classes at the university, in the final analysis, this is just an event in the dungeon, and the occurrence and direction of things are inseparable from him as a player.
Zhang Heng held Bai Qing's hand and said softly, "Don't worry, it will be fine, 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 shower, and at the same time rearranged the clues on hand by the way, and then he got dressed and walked out of the bathroom, and found that Bai Qing had also climbed up from the bed, and saw him blushing.
Nothing actually happened between the two.
Although lying on the same bed, but all the clothes are well dressed, at this time, Bai Qing just subconsciously wants to find a support, and there are no other thoughts, and Zhang Heng is the same.
He unscrewed a bottle of mineral water and threw the other bottle to Bai Qing on the bed.
"The results of the CT are in."
Contrary to Zhang Heng's expectations, this time it turned out to be his unreliable parents who were faster, and sent the results in two hours, and then another hour and a half later, it was his friend who worked in the hospital.
However, the results of the two reports were similar, and the three-dimensional reconstruction showed that the skeleton and blood vessels of the corpse were almost indistinguishable from those of a normal human body, except for the brain, which attracted the attention of the technicians.
"What does the fourth ventricle anomaly mean?" Bai Qing walked over to the computer.
"The fourth ventricle is an anatomical structure, located between the midbrain, pons and cerebellum, which is mainly cerebrospinal fluid, which communicates with the third ventricle, the subarachnoid space and the central canal of the spinal cord. Zhang Hengdao.
"Huh?"
"Let's put it this way, the technician who saw the CT chart thought that such a neat hemispherical shape could not be naturally formed, but more like some kind of industrial product, which was artificially manufactured, and the CT also showed that there were traces of cutting and healing on the parietal bone, and the radius coincided with the fourth ventricle."
"What does this mean?"
"This means that there are so many possibilities that I can't say at this time." Zhang Heng said, "But one thing is certain, the brains of the people who have been replaced are different from ordinary people, look here." ”
Zhang Heng pointed to a CT image of the fourth ventricle, with a shallow irregular shadow at the bottom of the deepest part.
"What's that, a tumor?" Bai Qing's eyes narrowed, trying 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 lifeform, and we are one step closer to the final answer." ”
