Ten minutes later, everyone was present in the conference room.
Wu Yi and Kuang Li must have heard something from Dr. Xiao, and the confusion on their faces turned heavy.
Yu Guangli, Ke Wenbin and Zhang Zhaojie are still in the dark.
"For this meeting, let's first inform the colleagues who stayed behind about the filming progress." Xie Bisheng saw that the three people on his right were quite restless and said soothingly, "Don't worry, the filming process went smoothly and there were no problems."
The three of them breathed a sigh of relief; success is always good.
"First, let's review the transformation process during the filming." Xie Bisheng gave Xia Jing a look, indicating that he should play the video.
Xia Jing selected the images captured by the camera above the observation window and played them for everyone.
The transformation process in the video was interspersed with Li Chunhua's countdown, which aroused the tension of several people who were not present.
The video stopped when Lin Fan fell to the ground and a group of people rushed in.
"This transformation provides answers to some of your previous speculations. First of all, 818 can be used as a transformation key, which is basically certain. And this time the transformation was achieved through a sample." As Xie Bisheng spoke, Xia Jing projected the video onto the big screen.
He specifically magnified Lin Fan's hand movements so that everyone could see that the transformation occurred the moment of contact.
While taking notes, Ke Wenbin asked, "Lin Fan, how did you hold the sample? Did you touch it gently? Or did you squeeze it firmly?"
Lin Fan was sitting in a wheelchair again and was pushed into the conference room by Song Ren.
She thought about it carefully and said, "I didn't use any force. I wanted to pick it up and hold it in my hand, but I didn't expect that as soon as I touched it..."
"A light touch will fulfill the transformation conditions." Ke Wenbin lowered his head and recorded quickly.
"Ke Wenbin," Xie Bisheng called out, "next time, test it again. What's the limit of the contact area?"
"Yes!" Ke Wenbin has already decided that next time he will take the sample No. 6 for testing. It is only half the size of a grain of rice. If he can transform when it touches that, then he can make a portable transformation device for Lin Fan.
"The second thing," Xie Bisheng continued, "is that after Lin Fan transformed this time, he didn't experience any critical conditions, nor did he fall into a coma. He simply felt weak and tired. This proves that the speculation that improving physical fitness will affect the transformed state is correct."
The scientific trio smiled at each other. Every verification of their hypothesis was a big step forward.
"Based on Lin Fan's current physique, continue to improve it. Of course, we must also monitor her energy consumption to see if it increases with the number of transformations she undergoes." Xie Bisheng continued to assign tasks. "Captain Song."
"Here." Song Ren stood up and responded.
"You've done very well in terms of physical training. I hope you can improve further in the future. Not just for Xingchen, but I see that Lin Fan's health is much better now than when he first arrived." Xie Bisheng smiled, "I hope you will continue to work hard."
"Yes! I guarantee to complete the task!" Song Ren replied.
"Doctor Xiao." Xie Bisheng turned around and called for help. Seeing that there was nothing for Song Ren to do, he sat down neatly.
"I'm here." Dr. Xiao knew that his job had come.
"Thank you for your hard work during this period." Xie Bisheng started with some politeness.
Strictly speaking, the medical trio weren't Xie Bisheng's subordinates; they were all seconded from the Medical Department, a unit independent of the 800th and the flight base.
Xie Bisheng didn't actually have direct control over them. However, as the deputy director of the 800, he could issue orders to anyone below him in terms of hierarchy, especially since the three of them were currently affiliated with the 623.
"It's not hard, it's what we should do." Dr. Xiao replied politely on behalf of the other two.
In fact, apart from some unexpected situations after the transformation that caught them off guard, they were almost free at other times and there was no hard work at all.
"I'll have to trouble you to continue monitoring Lin Fan's health data." Xie Bisheng continued to assign tasks, "Especially regarding consumption. You need to pay attention to whether her consumption has increased or decreased recently, and whether a balance can be achieved."
"Where's Wu Yi?" Xie Bisheng continued, changing people. "You need to pay attention to her nutrition and whether her intake is adequate. It's better for her to have a little excess energy than a lack of it."
"Okay, I'll remember that." Wu Yi nodded.
"Kuang Li, please pay attention to whether the radiation level in Lin Fan's body has increased or decreased recently." Xie Bisheng gave Kuang Li another task.
"She was exposed to radiation?" Ke Wenbin and others were shocked.
"No. This is the third thing I want to say. Stars should have a certain ability to resist radiation. After the transformation, the radiation value measured by Xia Jing on the spot was very slight. It is speculated that it was just residual radiation in the room. Just in case, we still have to keep monitoring for a period of time." Xie Bisheng'an said.
The scientific trio breathed a sigh of relief. Kuang Li nodded and agreed.
"Well, let's talk about the film now." Xie Bisheng pursed his lips and exhaled through his nose. "You speculated that Xingchen was taller than Lin Fan because his joints were stretched. Yes, that's true. But, despite my preparation, the actual situation still exceeded my imagination."
Xie Bisheng signaled Xia Jing to project the film onto the big screen.
Soon, two perspective images, one from the front and one from the side, appeared on the screen in black and white.
It was also the first time that Lin Fan saw a perspective view of stars. Under the illumination of X-rays, many structures of the stars were clearly presented.
Only the breastplate is mostly white, with many densely packed structures, so it is not clear.
"Enlarge the knee joint!" Xie Bisheng ordered.
Compared to other parts of the body, the knee joint is larger and has a more defined structure.
Soon, everyone saw a perspective view of the knee joint magnified countless times.
Even those who had seen it once in Pangu Cave couldn't help but frown.
How do joints stretch and increase height without affecting mobility? Now we finally know.
In the film, not only was the middle of the knee stretched out by an unknown object, but also countless root-like things extended from this object, connecting to the humerus, patella, and the fibula and tibia below.
"Is it a nerve?" Wu Yi asked, frowning. "It looks like a nerve plexus."
"It's not a nerve. Soft tissues like blood vessels, nerves, muscles, and brain tissue usually appear a very light grayish-white on X-rays," Dr. Xiao replied. "They're not visible on this film at all."
Xia Jing cooperated by magnifying the image again and again. Everyone saw some dark and light lines in the white, but they didn't know what they were.
"What is the black on the outside?" Zhang Zhaojie asked, adjusting his glasses.
"The gray-black and dark-black areas are generally low-density areas such as fat tissue or air-containing tissue. This film shows the air part, which has no meaning." Dr. Xiao explained.
"Those white ones..." Yu Guangli knew that the white ones should be bones, but the film obviously captured more than just bones.
"Bone tissue, due to its high density, appears clearly white on the film. But the white in this film is clearly more than just bone." Doctor Xiao shook his head helplessly. "Both the inner and outer carapaces of Xingchen appear white. Clearly, they have a very high density."
"The density of the inner and outer carapaces shouldn't be the same as the bone density, right? Different densities should also produce different shades of white." Xie Bisheng pondered. "Xia Jing, see if you can use color difference to separate the different shades of white."
"Okay." Xia Jing typed quickly on the keyboard.
For a long time, there was nothing to be heard in the conference room except the clacking sound of keyboards.
Failed, 555, stalled on a hill start, and slid to the bottom, 555. Going again next week. 555. Give me some money to comfort me.
