"Did you push her away?"
Wu Yusen had just explained what had happened, and everyone was familiar with it. Jin Sichen's repetition was merely a way to guide Wu Yusen down memory lane.
Hypnosis is like this. It requires repeated and patient guidance. Only by following the correct recollection can you reach the depths of memory and get more details.
"No. The car was going too fast. I just reached out my hand and the front of the car arrived."
"You are about to be hit by a car, and the consequences could be serious. Did you think of anything at that moment?" In a critical moment, many people will have many thoughts flashing through their heads.
"I just feel so sorry for Lin Fan. When I brought her out, I promised to send her home safely. She was in poor health to begin with, and after being hit like this..." John Woo sighed before he finished speaking.
Everyone knows that normally, not to mention Lin Fan, even a martial artist like John Woo would be in great danger.
Lin Fan hadn't expected that just before being hit, Wu Yusen was still worried about her. The emotion in her heart plummeted, tugging at her heart, making her feel a little sour.
"When you really can't avoid it, you close your eyes and take a blocking posture, waiting to be hit. But after waiting for a while, the expected impact does not come. You open your eyes and what do you see?" Jin Sichen continued to persuade him.
"The front of the car was right in front of me. I could have touched it if I had just stretched my head a little. Hot air was spraying from the radiator grille onto my face. Through the holes in the grille, I could see the engine spinning very fast, but the car didn't move at all. There was also a burning smell."
"Are you surprised?"
"I didn't have time to think about it. I quickly took two steps back, trying to get away from the front of the car. As I was stepping back, I saw a hand holding the front of the car."
"What kind of hands, and in what position?"
"The black hand is placed a little further inward from the right headlight, just to my right."
"Can you describe this hand in detail? Size? What material is it made of? Does it look strong?" As Jin Sichen asked, Xue Ping and Wang Fengfeng, who were sitting on the side, were ready to start drawing according to John Woo's description. Even Zong Cheng was eager to try with his pen in hand.
"The hand was wrapped in black metal, like a glove. It was neither too big nor too small, and it was hard to tell its gender. The metal at each joint was separate and independent, and it was lightly pressed against the hood of the car, seemingly without any force."
"Metal gloves with independent joints. Do you mean gloves like the ones worn by medieval knights?"
"Hmm... kind of like that, but not as bulky and feels more flexible."
"Does it look like Iron Man's hand?" Jin Sichen found a reference.
Wu Yusen first recalled what Iron Man's hands looked like, then shook his head and said, "No, not that thick, it feels more slender."
"Slender? Did you just say you couldn't tell whether it was a man or a woman?"
"Yes. I don't know how to describe it, but it didn't feel like a glove, wrapped in a thick layer of metal, but rather... a thin layer of metal... The hand wasn't much larger than a normal hand, and the joints were smooth, and it looked very flexible. Actually, now that I think about it, I'm not sure if it was metal, it just felt that way..."
"You mean, that hand is thinner than Iron Man's hand, closer to the size of a real palm, but slightly larger. The black material is not sure what it is made of, and the joints are separated and very flexible. Is that right?" Jin Sichen concluded.
Wang Fengfeng immediately called up pictures of Iron Man's gloves from various angles on the computer, as well as other knight gloves and some other mecha hands, and put them on the projector for everyone's reference.
Wu Yusen thought about it carefully and nodded in confirmation: "Yes."
"Okay, now let's move beyond the details of the hand and go back to when you took two steps back and just saw the hand. You saw a hand pressed against the hood of the car, stopping it. What were you thinking at that moment? Were you surprised?"
"No. I didn't react at the time. My first thought was to find Lin Fan. After I saw the hand, I didn't think too much about it. In fact, it only took a moment from seeing the hand to turning back to look for him."
Lin Fan heard Wu Yusen mention her again. Whether before or after the car accident, this man had always been concerned about her safety. She hadn't been wrong when she'd said he was "fine."
"You turned back to look for Lin Fan, but saw the mecha man. Were you surprised at that time?"
"Surprised isn't even enough to describe how I felt at the time! I was completely stunned, completely paralyzed. All I could think of was 'WTF?'"
"Okay, let's stop at the moment you turn your head. Look at the mecha in front of you and don't move. Can you see what the mecha in front of you looks like?"
"...I can't see clearly. Most of her body is illuminated by the light, and I can only see a rough outline." John Woo thought for a moment and said, "It looks very handsome."
"Even if I only saw a rough outline, I thought he was really handsome?"
The picture John Woo saw was like a backlit photo. Apart from the black background, there was strong light and the mecha in the light.
If the angle and atmosphere are good, it will definitely look good, but if you want to be handsome, the mechanical and cold lines and texture are definitely indispensable.
"I just think it's cool. I feel like my blood is boiling." John Woo's tone was full of excitement at that time.
"Then let's stop here in this excitement and move your sight closer to the mecha. At this distance, you should be able to see some details of the mecha. Could you describe what you see to us, such as the color?"
"The arm is white... or maybe silver, I'm not sure, it's too bright, I can't see clearly, but it should be a light color."
"It's okay, what else did you see?"
"From the wrist up, it's wrapped in white metal. It doesn't have as many joints as the hands, but it's not a smooth cylinder either. There are some irregular blocks and some lines. I don't know if they're decorations or divisions, but they're not many. The elbow joint should be made up of several different mecha pieces, because I saw a little black showing through that piece."
“Is the metal surface reflective?”
"I don't see any reflections, at least not mirror reflections. But if you put it that way, it does feel like there's a scattering of light, and it's too bright to see clearly."
"What else is there along the arm?"
"Following the arms, I saw the breastplate, also wrapped in white metal. The neck was black, like the hands, not particularly thick. Down below was a circle of white metal. It was a bit thick, a bit like a stand-up collar wrapped around the neck, with a V-shaped opening in the front. From the collar down, the breastplate part bulged out noticeably, with several thick sections blocking the chest."
"What kind of bulge? Is it the kind with female lines?" Jin Sichen asked.
"No, I can't see any female characteristics. Compared to the arms, the chest armor looks very thick."
"How does it compare to Iron Man?" Jin Sichen knew that this was completely pointless, so he could only use Iron Man as a reference again.
"Although I can only see the upper part of the chest plate, I feel it is larger and thicker than Iron Man's chest plate."
"Is it a breastplate that you can only look at?"
"It's all in the dark below the breastplate. It's too dark to see."
"Can you think of anything else about the chest mecha?"
Wu Yusen thought about it and shook his head slowly: "I can't think of it."
"That leaves the head. What can you think of?"
"My head needs to be higher. I need to look up to see the horns on the helmet..."
"Wait a minute," Jin Sichen interrupted, "You said you need to look up to see the complete head of the mecha?"
"right."
"I remember you were about 1.7 meters tall."
"1.78 meters." John Woo answered himself.
Although this height is not tall, it is not very short either.
"How far away were you from the mecha at the time?"
"About two meters or less."
Zong Cheng had already started calculating with a pen while Wang Fengfeng pulled up Lin Fan's data and zoomed in. On the projector, everyone could clearly see that Lin Fan was only 1.7 meters tall.
This means that Lin Fan's height changed after his transformation. Adding to what Wu Yusen just said, his hands are slightly larger, and his chest armor is also larger. Some people analyzed that Lin Fan's transformed mecha is much larger than his original form.
At this point, Zong Cheng estimated his height, and Wang Fengfeng also calculated it using a computer. They both agreed that after Lin Fan's transformation, the mecha's highest point should be over 2 meters. Only someone of Wu Yusen's height would need to look up to see the entire helmet.
After hearing the conclusion, Jin Sichen continued to ask, "Is there anything about the helmet that impressed you?"
"She was facing the front of the car, and I could only see the side," Wu Yusen described the scene. "Actually, I couldn't see it clearly. It was blurry."
"I vaguely saw that her chin was pointed, and the back of her head wasn't round either. The top half was round, and the bottom half was straight. I couldn't see the front of her forehead clearly, but there were horns on top of her head, slanting back and sticking out at the top of her head."
"And then?"
"I saw her arm tremble slightly, and then the truck engine stopped. I don't know what the attack was, but it reminded me of internal energy." John Woo thought of something else and said, "When she turned her head, I thought I saw a flash of light on her face. It wasn't the light of the sun, but a different kind of light. I thought she would turn around and show me her face. I was so excited."
"Then what?"
"Then the mecha disappeared. I don't know how it disappeared, because I didn't even blink. Anyway, the mecha was gone, and I saw a dark shadow sliding down and hugging me. It turned out to be Lin Fan. That's when I remembered that there was a person named Lin Fan."
Lin Fan couldn't help but smile when he heard this.
At this point, John Woo could not contribute any more useful information. Jin Sichen looked at the director, who nodded in agreement. He then began to remove John Woo's hypnosis.
"John Woo, now I want you to back out of the scene. Back away slowly, away from the lights, away from the truck, into complete darkness."
"Imagine you are in a dark underground tunnel, walking upwards. Wait a moment, I will slowly count from ten to one. With each number you take a step toward the surface. When you reach one, you will return to the real world and return to normal."
"Ten, nine, eight, seven..." Jin Sichen counted down slowly. Everyone else stopped what they were doing and waited for Wu Yusen to wake up. Even Mr. Qian watched, after all, he had never seen a hypnotist being removed.
"...Three, two, one." As soon as Jin Sichen finished speaking, John Woo opened his eyes and grinned as if he was not the one who was hypnotized just now.
