Chapter 79: Head-Swapping Experiment

"She, she's your fiancée?" Jiang Peiyao looked at the woman in the freezer and asked in surprise, she couldn't believe that someone had preserved the remains of her relatives in such a way. What made her even more incredible was that Dr. Li kept claiming that her fiancée was still alive, but she didn't know when she would wake up.

"Yes, she is Ran Xi, my fiancée ......" Dr. Li smiled slightly, turned his head and asked Jiang Peiyao, "Isn't she beautiful?" Like the Sleeping Beauty in the story? ”

"She ......" Jiang Peiyao had to admit that the woman in front of her looked very iconic, but using the word "beautiful" to describe a pale corpse gave people a weird feeling. She nodded at a loss and asked suspiciously, "Why didn't you tell me she was dead before?" I thought ......"

"Who said she was dead?" Dr. Li frowned in displeasure and said angrily, "Ran Xi is not dead, she is just asleep." ”

"Really?" Jiang Peiyao showed an expression of complete disbelief, "A living person should sleep on the bed, if you put her in the freezer, even if she is not dead, she will freeze to death." ”

"Haven't you heard of human freezing?"

"What?"

"It is to lower the temperature of the human body, so that the body enters a state of suspended animation, although there is no heartbeat, no breathing, no brain activity, but the frozen person is not dead, and one day he will wake up again."

"I don't understand what you're talking about." Jiang Peiyao shook her head, she thought that the kind of thing Dr. Li said was impossible. She has seen science fiction films, human beings lie in an instrument like hibernation, no matter how many years have passed, their lives still exist, but there is no such instrument in reality, and even if there is, it will not be an ordinary freezer. "Dr. Li, I know that you have a deep relationship with your fiancée, and you are reluctant to lose her and don't want her to leave you. But people can't be resurrected after death, you have to open a little, don't torture yourself crazy. ”

"You think I'm joking with you? You think I'm crazy, don't you? Doctor Li looked at Jiang Peiyao with a gloomy face, his eyes showing a fierce light, "You little girl doesn't understand anything, I have found a way to save her, I will definitely be able to wake her up." ”

"Okay, that's your business to do it......" Jiang Peiyao slowly took a few steps back, she was a little afraid of the man in front of her, this was not the same person as the Dr. Li she usually came into contact with.

This man is a madman, a madman who can't tell the difference between reality and illusion, a madman who treats corpses as if they were living people. She had to leave quickly, and she didn't want to see this person again. "I'm sorry, I'm going back, we won't see each other again."

"Where are you going?" Dr. Li asked in surprise.

"I'm going home." Jiang Peiyao said that she turned around and was about to leave, but who knew that Dr. Li grabbed her arm and said with a sneer: "What are you doing when you go home?" From now on, this is your home. ”

"I don't want to be with someone like you, you let me go!"

"I can't let you go." Dr. Li dragged Jiang Peiyao to death, and said emotionally, "You are gone, how can I wake up Ran Xi?" What do you think I'm spending so much time and effort trying to get close to you for? What do you think I asked you to meet with Ran Xi for? It's not about making you a part of her and living with us in the future. ”

"What do you mean? What does it mean to be a part of her? Jiang Peiyao was so frightened that she suddenly realized that she had fallen into a terrible trap, and the person who led her into the trap didn't seem to want to cheat money, but wanted to use her to accomplish something extremely crazy.

Jiang Peiyao did not escape Dr. Li's control, and she was placed under house arrest and deprived of contact with the outside world. Gradually, she finally understood Dr. Lee's purpose in tricking her here.

From a normal person's point of view, Dr. Li's fiancée, Ran Xi, is indeed dead, and Dr. Li refuses to admit this fact because he has something wrong with his brain. He insisted that Ran Xi was still alive only because he was "brain dead" and had entered a sleep mode that he could not wake up. In order to create a miracle, he came up with a crazy solution, which was "head replacement surgery".

"Head Replacement Surgery" is an experimental study proposed by Canavero, a surgeon from the Italian Society of Advanced Neuromodulation, that is, the patient's head is transplanted into a new body, so that the patient can "regain a new body".

To complete the experiment, Dr. Canavero recruited a volunteer, Valery Donov, a computer scientist from Russia. Suffering from congenital muscular dystrophy since childhood, Valeridonov wanted to have a healthy body before leaving this world, so he agreed to undergo Canavero's head transplant.

Unfortunately, this operation has not been successfully performed on a living person, and doctors have only completed the connection of the severed vertebrae, nerves, blood vessels and tissues on the two corpses. Some critics say Canavero's plan is pure fantasy. Dr. Bad Jar of the American Association of Neurological Surgeons (AANS) believes the consequences of the procedure are serious and wants people not to undergo it.

Inspired by Canavero, Dr. Li wanted to resurrect his fiancée by replacing Jiang Peiyao's head on Ran Xi's body. He could clearly realize that Ran Xi's brain stem function was lost and permanently irreversible, so he decided to give Ran Xi a new head and keep his original body. But he refused to accept the fact that Ran Xi was dead, and stubbornly believed that Ran Xi's body could continue to be used.

No matter how much Jiang Peiyao persuaded and pleaded, Dr. Li always adhered to his plan. He also comforted Jiang Peiyao not to be afraid, saying that he would be under general anesthesia during the operation, and he would not feel any pain, just like sleeping on the operating table. Of course, Jiang Peiyao didn't believe his nonsense, she knew that once she got on the operating table, she would never wake up.

On the evening of October 17, Dr. Li brought back a young girl in her twenties from outside. The girl's name is Ji Lan, and she was kidnapped by Dr. Li from the riverside greenway near her home. It is said that at the time of the abduction, the girl was running at night while listening to music, and she did not notice that there were bad people around.

Dr. Lee wanted to kidnap the girl because he needed a test piece to practice his hands before the surgery. He had never had the experience of separating the head of a living person from his body. He wanted to see if he could succeed and if he could keep the head alive for a short time without his body.

However, the experiment failed. Before Dr. Lee's separation operation was completed, the girl had already lost her vital signs. At that time, Dr. Lee was so annoyed that he was furious at the girl's corpse and scolded himself for being useless.

Afterwards, he calmed down and suddenly realized that he had done it too unwisely. He had no experience and couldn't avoid trial and error. But every time he experimented with living people, he couldn't find so many experiments; Second, dealing with corpses would be particularly troublesome for him.

He left the girl's head, packed it into a large suitcase, and dumped her body in an abandoned factory. He was afraid that the police would find traces of surgical severance from the girl's neck wound when they found the body, so he deduced that the murderer was a surgeon, so he burned the girl's body along with the suitcase. Of course, he also thought about the residual narcotic drugs in the victim's body, but he believed that on this alone, the chances of the police finding him were slim.

After the failure of the first experiment, Dr. Li began experimenting with stray cats and dogs. Jiang Peiyao didn't know what the day-to-day experiment was like, but she knew that Dr. Li had dumped the carcasses of the animals in the trash cans on the street. After all, it was just a small animal's carcass, and even if it was found by the cleaners, it would not call the police, which saved Dr. Li a lot of trouble.
