Chapter 63: New discovery

While waiting for the ambulance, Song Ren roughly felt Lin Fan's bones and found no obvious signs of fracture.

After a while, the ambulance arrived.

The onboard doctor, aware of the fall, carefully examined Lin Fan but found nothing amiss. After confirming there were no fractures or obvious injuries, he quickly loaded him into the ambulance.

Song Ren and Li Chunhua squeezed into the ambulance together and followed closely.

Downstairs in the office building, Dr. Xiao and others had been waiting anxiously. When they saw the ambulance roaring towards them, they hurried to meet it.

As soon as the back door opened, Jin Sichen was the first to rush in.

When the stretcher was pulled out, the scene was not as tragic as everyone had imagined.

Lin Fan seemed to be sleeping quietly. Apart from his pale face, nothing else could be seen.

Jin Sichen held Lin Fan's hand tightly, and after confirming that his pulse was steady and strong, he finally let out a sigh of relief.

Dr. Xiao asked the doctor on board about the situation, carefully transferred Lin Fan to his own stretcher, and prepared to go back for a detailed examination.

The group of people outside tacitly said nothing until they entered door 623.

"What happened? What happened when you got there?" Jin Sichen was more anxious than anyone else.

"When I arrived, she was in a coma. I checked on her and her breathing was stable and she had no obvious external injuries." Song Ren replied.

"Aren't you guys watching Pangu's test drive in the activity room? How did Lin Fan get there?" Zhang Zhaojie asked.

"I don't know how she got there. Pangu just fell down accidentally. Then she was there, and after pulling Pangu to stand up, she fell down herself." Song Ren was concise.

Li Chunhua was stunned for a moment; he didn't understand. What did it mean to pull Pangu upright? Was Lin Fan the bird he had seen earlier? Could she fly?

"How high?" Dr. Xiao asked seriously.

"More than seventy meters, the location of Pangu Head." Song Ren said.

Everyone gasped.

"It fell directly? Without any dynamic buffer?" Ke Wenbin frowned.

"Yes, there doesn't seem to be any cushioning, it's just a free fall. There is a shallow pit under Pangu's feet, and there are cracks all around. It must have been caused by her." Song Ren replied.

Everyone frowned in unison.

"Injuries from falling from height usually result in impacts to bones and internal organs, so we need to take an X-ray." Doctor Xiao pulled Lin Fan into the imaging room, and several people carefully moved her onto the machine.

Lin Fan had no open wounds and no obvious signs of internal bleeding, so Dr. Xiao decided to give her an MRI scan from head to toe.

"Why are her clothes torn?" Wu Yi saw a hole on the back of Lin Fan's T-shirt.

"Let me see!" Jin Sichen leaned over to check.

"I checked and the skin inside is not injured. It may be that the clothes were caught somewhere and tore it." Song Ren explained.

"If you have something to say, go out and talk slowly. Don't delay the examination by blocking the room." Dr. Xiao rudely kicked everyone out of the examination room.

A group of people waited quietly outside, and the door opened after about ten minutes.

"There are no fractures and no internal organ damage." Dr. Xiao's conclusion made everyone feel relieved.

Then he took Lin Fan to a ward next to the infirmary, which was prepared just for her.

Dr. Xiao checked every possible item, but in the end he himself was confused.

If you say Lin Fan is sleeping, she has no reaction to external stimuli; if you say she is in a coma, except for a slow heart rate, all other indicators are normal.

The experienced doctor Xiao was also unsure. After hesitating for a long time, he finally determined that Lin Fan was in a drowsy state between deep sleep and light coma.

There doesn't seem to be any danger at the moment, but it's hard to say when he will wake up.

So we can only wait?

Everyone found the situation difficult, but Jin Sichen seemed to be thinking about something.

"What do you know?" Song Ren asked when he saw Jin Sichen's expression.

Yes, the people at the Special Affairs Office must know, after all, they have encountered it before.

"I heard from John Woo that Lin Fan also fainted on the spot after the last truck incident," Jin Sichen recalled.

"So, she falls into a coma every time she transforms?" Song Ren raised his eyebrows.

Transform? Lin Fan could transform? Li Chunhua's heart was pounding. Seeing that the atmosphere wasn't suitable for asking, she could only listen silently.

"So is she in a normal coma now?" Ke Wenbin asked.

"I'm not sure." Jin Sichen shook his head. "After a free fall from such a height, even though the results showed no problems, there's still a possibility that he might have fainted, right?"

"Doctor Jin, what else do you know? Feel free to tell us so we can all work together," said Yu Guangli.

"I don't know more than you do. After all, it wasn't me who followed Lin Fan in the beginning." Jin Sichen relaxed again when he saw that Lin Fan was fine. He dragged a stool and sat down beside Lin Fan's bed.

"You all know about the first plane incident. There's no evidence, just speculation. The second time, John Woo was there firsthand, but he's also told you everything he told us. There were very few clues to begin with, otherwise why would we have sent someone to 800?" Jin Sichen thought to himself. If we hadn't been so clueless, we wouldn't have sent him here. "But the first two times, he woke up after about seven hours. I wonder if it's the same this time."

Then let's see after 7 hours...

Yu Guangli and Doctor Xiao also sat down on the small sofa in the room. They were both quite old, and after being frightened and nervous just now, they suddenly felt a little tired after relaxing.

"It's not a matter of being unconscious or sleeping. How could Lin Fan not have any injuries after falling from such a height?" Wu Yi asked.

Yes, everyone found it strange. It wasn't that they wanted Lin Fan to get hurt, but they couldn't go against the laws of nature, could they?

"If it was a free fall, even if there was a mecha to protect it, it would be impossible for it to fall without any injuries, right?" This is also what Dr. Xiao found strange.

Mecha? What mecha? Li Chunhua's eyes widened.

"Maybe it's the mecha's built-in shock-absorbing effect?" Zhang Zhaojie speculated.

"Impossible," Ke Wenbin immediately denied. "There is no such material, and there would be no such structure."

"Is it possible that she was injured and then quickly recovered on her own?" Wu Yi proposed the hypothesis.

"Does that mean her cell metabolism is faster? Then you have to ask Kuang Li, where is he?" Zhang Zhaojie didn't see anyone, and then he remembered that Kuang Li was in the laboratory checking the samples that had just been extracted and had not come over yet.

"I'll go and take a look." Although he knew there was no need to urge him, Wu Yi still decided to go.

"Actually, there's another thing I care about." Jin Sichen spoke again.

"What?" Song Ren asked.

"She had a torn piece of clothing before." Jin Sichen recalled the day he first entered 800. When he was checking at the security checkpoint and took out his luggage for inspection, he saw that Lin Fan had a torn piece of clothing. At that time, he complained that John Woo was too rough in his work.

"What's wrong with the clothes?" Ke Wenbin was confused.

The others also didn't understand and were waiting for Jin Sichen's follow-up.

Li Chunhua pricked up her ears with a confused look on her face, afraid that she had missed something.

"I didn't care at first, but it seems... the torn locations are the same." Jin Sichen recalled carefully and confirmed that the torn locations on the two clothes were indeed the same.

"...How do you mean?" Song Ren seemed to have thought of something, but he was not very clear.

"Lin Fan's first transformation was on the plane, and she fell into a coma afterwards. According to John Woo's investigation, there was a hole on the back of her clothes when she woke up." Jin Sichen recalled the previous information.

I originally thought that the torn clothes had nothing to do with the transformation and was just a trivial matter, so I didn't write it down in the information I sent over.

"The second time Lin Fan transformed, she also fell into a coma. The clothes... might be the tattered clothes she brought in." Jin Sichen said again.

He couldn't actually remember what Lin Fan was wearing that day. But she only had three clothes in total, and one of them had a torn back, so it must be that one.

"The clothes she wore today were new T-shirts given by Captain Song. The fabric of the reserve team's clothes is very strong, not as easily torn as her old clothes. I just took a special look, and the edges of the tears were smooth, as if they were cut by a knife or scissors..." Jin Sichen pondered and organized his words.

"You mean... every time Lin Fan transforms, the back of his clothes gets torn?" Zhang Zhaojie understood.

"Is there something that always pierces the clothes?" Yu Guangli frowned.

"It's a mecha!" Ke Wenbin said, "If the mecha came out of Lin Fan's body, then every time it transforms it will naturally penetrate his clothes!"

No one spoke.

Only Li Chunhua was caught in a brainstorming session as if struck by lightning.

Why did the mecha emerge from Lin Fan's body? Was it the Lin Fan he knew? ...

Assuming Ke Wenbin's inference is correct, the mecha that came out of the body was as sharp as a knife and pierced through the clothes.

How did such a sharp object come out of Lin Fan's body?

Lin Fan...is he really not injured?

After a long silence, Song Ren concluded, "We've got two pieces of useful information so far: First, every time Lin Fan transforms, she falls into a coma. The reason is still unclear. Second, every time she transforms, there's a hole on the back of her clothes. It's suspected that the mecha pierced through her when she transformed."

Everyone nodded silently.

Things seemed to have made some new progress, but everyone still felt at a loss as to where to start.

Suddenly, Zhang Zhaojie spoke up: "So, what exactly does Lin Fan's mecha look like?"

No one responded.

"Didn't you see it?" Ke Wenbin looked at Jin Sichen and Song Ren strangely.

Li Chunhua had a dazed look on his face, and everyone excluded him from the communication partner.

"No! When we found him, Lin Fan had already flown to Pangu. From the terrace, there was only a small black dot, which was completely invisible." Song Ren said with a wry smile.

At that time, Pangu had an accident, which drew all their attention, so they didn't notice when Lin Fan disappeared.

The office building was nearly a kilometer away from the Pangu test site, and Lin Fan's mecha was said to be only about two meters tall. They did some mental calculations and realized that from such a distance, they really couldn't see anything.

"Is there any surveillance outside the terrace?" asked Dr. Xiao.

"Yes. But Doctor Jin previously said the terrace is a high-risk area and Lin Fan can't go there for the time being, so it hasn't been activated. I don't know if they went up to the terrace today..." Yu Guangli saw Jin Sichen looking over and hurriedly said, "Doctor Jin's studio doesn't have surveillance."

After all, Jin Sichen was a top expert of international standing, and Lin Fan rarely entered his office. To avoid unnecessary conflict, his office was the only room in 623 without surveillance cameras.

But Jin Sichen wasn't particularly happy. He knew Lin Fan was constantly under surveillance, with little privacy, but there was nothing he could do until her transformation stabilized.

In order to capture image information in a timely manner, John Woo also proposed installing multiple surveillance cameras.

Look! The terrace surveillance camera wasn't turned on, and they missed Lin Fan's transformation in real time. This once again proves the necessity of surveillance.

Alas~ I just hope Lin Fan’s transformation can stabilize quickly.

"The report is out!" Kuang Li entered the ward with the report, and Wu Yi walked behind him.

Dr. Xiao took the report and read it carefully.

"How is it?" Yu Guangli asked from the side.

"There is no problem, all the data are normal." Doctor Xiao shook his head slowly.

This means there are no more clues, and everyone is inevitably disappointed.

"Hey! Cheer up." Jin Sichen said with a smile, "Hasn't this been an improvement compared to this morning?"

yes!

Everyone then realized that they had also gained something.

Although there are not many clues, there are indeed new discoveries.

And Lin Fan also transformed again.

It has only been more than half a month, and they originally thought they would have to wait longer.

They are all unexpected surprises!

"That's right! Xia Jing is in the Pangu control room, he must have seen it!" Zhang Zhaojie suddenly thought of it.

Xie Bisheng was of course there too, but the deputy director was very busy and they couldn't disturb him at will.

Several people became excited on the spot and wanted to contact Xia Jing immediately.

"Hey everyone, why don't you go out and talk first, and give Lin Fan some space?" Jin Sichen started to drive people away.

It’s not that he has no interest in Lin Fan’s mecha form, but he pays more attention to Lin Fan himself.

At this time, he couldn't leave Lin Fan!

"Yes, yes, yes! There shouldn't be so many people in the ward, disturbing the patients' rest. Let's go out first!" Doctor Xiao also remembered that there shouldn't be too many strangers in the ward.

She carefully confirmed that Lin Fan's monitors were working properly and wondered whether she should stay and accompany him.

"Don't worry, I'll be with Lin Fan." Jin Sichen smiled and declined Dr. Xiao and Wu Yi's offer to take care of him.

If Lin Fan is just unconscious or sleeping, he doesn't need a doctor or nurse by his side.

"Yes, it's enough for Doctor Jin to stay." Yu Guangli saw that Jin Sichen was unlikely to leave, so he helped to drive him away. "Thank you for your hard work, Doctor Jin."

"You're welcome. It's my duty." Jin Sichen smiled as he watched everyone leave. He was surprised to see Song Ren and Li Chunhua also leave the ward; he had thought they were going to stay.

He stared at Lin Fan, who was lying unconscious on the hospital bed. After a while, he put away his smile, took out his cell phone and sent a text message.

【Director, Lin Fan has transformed!】

I was taken downstairs and quarantined. !!!∑(Дノ)ノPlease give me some votes to appease the author's frightened heart.
