Interstellar boss, she doesn't talk about martial arts

Chapter 1011 Perfect Mimicry (Two chapters in one)

Zong Ruoning said: "The damage to the brain can be big or small."

"Our school must use the highest level medical cabin and the best medicine to treat Student Xia."

"The medical cabin I have is the best model currently. Can you let her go there for treatment?"

The executive vice president in charge of logistics is thinking about where to find the highest-model medical cabin.

After hearing what Zong Ruoning said, he immediately agreed and said, "No problem! The medical expenses will be borne by the school, Commissioner Zong, don't worry."

Zong Ruoning wanted to say that he didn't want the money, but then he changed his mind and realized that the school owed Xia Chujian the money, so he accepted it and then gave it to Xia Chujian.

Huo Yushen said: "There is no time to lose, you should quickly come up with a treatment plan."

"How long does it take every day? Who will take Xia Chujian home after her treatment?"

These are all practical problems.

But for the executive vice president in charge of logistics, this is a piece of cake.

He said: "I will find a few robots in this field to take care of Xia's daily transportation and treatment."

Zong Ruoning said: "The medical cabin is on my aircraft. How about this, I will put the medical cabin at my home near the school."

"My house is right next to Xia Chujian's."

"She comes to my house every day for treatment, and then I take her home."

The executive vice president in charge of logistics was delighted and said, "This couldn't be better!"

"I've prepared the herbs needed for auxiliary treatment and sent them home to Xia Chujian. Let her family help boil the medicine."

These are of course all natural herbs that work on brain damage, and they are very expensive.

Without the Emperor's order, it would not be easy for their school to come up with the money. It would have to be approved by a collective vote of the school board.

But the emperor was the largest shareholder and boss of their school, so when he spoke, others had to obey unconditionally.

Huo Yushen said: "Since everything has been decided, I will send Xia Chujian back first."

He looked at Zong Ruoning and said, "Commissioner Zong, start with a month of treatment and we'll see how things go later."

Zong Ruoning nodded: "I will immediately find someone to put the medical cabin at my home."

This way you don't have to go to his aircraft every time.

Although he really wanted to go there, the aircraft was not parked here, so it was not very convenient to go there.

After Zong Ruoning left, Huo Yushen also took Xia Chujian back to her home.

Xia Yuanfang breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Xia Chujian coming back.

Huo Yushen explained the school's arrangements.

When he found out that the medical cabin was in the villa next door, Xia Yuan said, "Thank you so much. This is much more convenient."

"What about the cost of treatment...?"

Huo Yushen said: "The school will take care of everything."

Xia Yuanfang knew the cost of treatment in the medical cabin.

It's not that she can't afford it now, but whether Xia Chujian was injured in the school's action or the emperor caused her greater harm, it is reasonable and moral that the school, that is, His Majesty the Emperor, should pay for her medical expenses.

Xia Yuanfang did not have any pedantic idea that "thunder, lightning, rain and dew are all grace from the emperor".

When it is time to poach the emperor, do it now.

The only thing to worry about is that the emperor will pretend nothing happened.

Now that Huo Yushen had confirmed it, she pursed her lips and said, "That's good. Chu Jian's injury should be healed as soon as possible..."

Xia Chujian's injury now seems a bit like "fake becoming real" because it involves the brain, and even Xia Yuanfang does not dare to take it lightly.

Huo Yushen also understood this and immediately said, "It must be cured quickly. If you need anything, just let me know."

Xia Yuanfang didn't have any further requests.

Many of the auxiliary medicinal materials transferred from Zong Ruoning are good things.

With Xia Yuanfang's skillful cooking, they were all made into medicinal food and all went into Xia Chujian's stomach.

During these ten days, Xia Yuanfang did not allow any human, humanoid, animal or robot in the house to disturb Xia Chujian.

She was either sleeping in the medical cabin or sleeping at home.

Only sleep is the best way to repair the body, especially the brain.

Ten days later, one morning, Xia Chujian woke up peacefully in her bed at home.

This was the first time since her return that she felt truly at peace.

Because in the previous ten days, after experiencing the physical electric shock of the polygraph, her ears had been buzzing.

She knew very well that it was not a real sound, but something wrong with her brain.

And now, the incessant buzzing sound has finally disappeared.

The world seemed to have returned to normal, and her five senses could live in peace with the world again.

Xia Chujian yawned contentedly and then stretched.

She got up from the bed, walked to the window and pulled open the gauze curtains.

It was dawn outside the window, the early summer sun was already warm, and the courtyard was full of colorful flowers.

Xia Chujian felt happy seeing this.

She almost hummed as she went to the bathroom to wash up.

When she came out of the shower, Xia Yuanfang was already waiting in her bedroom.

Xia Chujian said in surprise: "Aunt, it's only six o'clock in the morning, and you're already awake?"

Xia Yuanfang would not tell her that in the past ten days, she had only slept two or three hours a day and was completely dependent on the medicine she made.

If Xia Chujian couldn't recover in ten days, she would never forgive herself.

Fortunately, judging from Xia Chujian's condition, the brain injury seemed to have healed.

Xia Yuanfang waved at her: "Come here, I'll help you check it again."

Xia Chujian obediently followed Xia Yuanfang to her studio, lay down on the small bed there, and let Xia Yuanfang test her.

After Xia Yuanfang connected various test probes to her brain, he started his own equipment.

Through this instrument, she can observe the recovery of Xia Chujian's brain tissue and her overall physical health data.

The examination Xia Yuanfang conducted this time was very complete and thorough.

Five minutes later, all the test data came out.

Xia Yuanfang looked at it and said, "Well, the limbs and internal organs have recovered, and the body's resistance to electric shock has increased."

"The brain tissue has also recovered. However, in order to make those imperial doctors give up, I have done a 'counterfeit-proof' treatment on your hippocampus that is responsible for memory."

"They can't see through my 'anti-counterfeiting' measures. They will just think that the hippocampus in your brain, which is responsible for memory, has not recovered."

Xia Chujian said: "So I have to pretend to have amnesia all the time?" This is exactly what Huo Yushen said.

She also thinks it’s good to have “amnesia” all the time.

Xia Yuanfang nodded: "Yes, it's short-term memory loss. Mainly speaking, you lost your memory after falling into that door this time."

"In this situation, no one in the entire Beichen Galaxy can cure you except me."

Xia Chujian was amazed: "Aunt, this is also possible?! Can you be so precise?!"

Although Xia Yuanfang smiled peacefully, his tone was somewhat arrogant: "It's just the hippocampus in the brain that is responsible for memory. It's easy for me to create another one for you and replace your existing brain tissue."

Xia Chujian wanted to prostrate herself on the ground to express her worship to her aunt.

Xia Yuanfang was amused by her little expression, but when he thought about the examinations that Xia Chujian would face from the imperial doctors, his smile quickly disappeared.

She said solemnly: "From a medical point of view, your situation is not only completely possible, but the probability of such symptoms occurring is also relatively high."

"Because the human body has this kind of preventive measure instinctively. When encountering extremely extreme situations, the human body will take basic self-rescue actions, such as fainting or losing memory."

"Under strong stimulation, amnesia can make the impact on the human brain less severe and reduce the number of dead brain cells."

"...You have to know that dead brain cells cannot be regenerated."

Xia Chujian seemed to understand what he said, and asked hurriedly, "Did I lose a lot of brain cells this time?"

Xia Yuanfang nodded.

Xia Chujian touched his head and said with lingering fear: "What should I do? I'm not very smart to begin with. Now that so many brain cells have died, how can I still strive for first place in school in the future?!"

Xia Yuanfang couldn't help laughing and said, "...You want to compete for first place now? Didn't you tell me 'Long live passing' when we were in elementary and middle school?"

You have to know how upset she was back then.

Thinking about her past, from a child prodigy to a genius girl, since she started school, there has never been a second person sitting in the top position!
But later, when she took Xia Chujian to survive in this strange galaxy, not only did the cruel reality of survival hit her, but even this child "hit" her!

This made her doubt her own IQ for a while.

It's obviously easy to go to school, why is it so difficult when I meet Xia Chujian!
Fortunately, things are now back on track.

Xia Chujian has also become a real academic master!
Xia Chujian thought about her childhood and found it funny. She said, "I really didn't understand it back then, but university is different."

"The teaching method of our university is very suitable for me. Even if it is book knowledge, I can learn it just by taking a look at it!"

Xia Yuanfang nodded with satisfaction: "That's good, you finally found the path that suits you, and it's worth choosing the military academy."

At this point, Xia Yuanfang added: "Having said that, although my approach can conceal the fact that your brain tissue has healed..."

Xia Chujian frowned and interrupted Xia Yuanfang: "Aunt, didn't you say that brain cells cannot regenerate? Then how did my brain tissue heal?"

Xia Yuanfang chuckled: "Brain cells cannot be regenerated. This is a general concept."

“Brain cells actually include two major categories: neurons and glial cells.”

"To be precise, neurons cannot be repaired or regenerated."

"but……"

Xia Chujian smiled happily: "I generally don't like people saying 'but', but aunt is an exception!"

Xia Yuanfang rolled her eyes at her and said, "But glial cells can be repaired and regenerated. Moreover, I have found that with certain stimulation methods, glial cells can even be redifferentiated into neurons."

"The electric shock you received during the lie detector test this time actually precisely damaged your neurons, so recovery is considered impossible in the entire Beichen galaxy."

Xia Chujian's smile gradually disappeared: "...So, that Wang Nei Shi's water is really deep."

Xia Yuanfang nodded and said, "I don't understand your intrigues, but I know that to accurately damage neurons, it is definitely not something that can be done by simply using a lie detector to shock the brain."

"The hippocampus, which controls memory in the brain, is the most complex, so it is well protected by the human body."

"But what they didn't anticipate is that the brain tissue in your brain is very resistant to electric shock."

"So your neuron loss is extremely limited. I stimulated your glial cells to redifferentiate into neurons and make up for the deficiency. So you can recover in a short period of time."

"Your memory is not damaged either."

Xia Chujian thought, of course not, she remembered everything that happened after she fell through that door, every person she met, and every battle she fought!

She said, "But will the royal doctors acknowledge my memory loss?"

Xia Yuanfang said: "Look here..."

She showed Xia Chujian the display screens of her instruments.

"This is your brain tissue before the treatment. This is the hippocampus that controls memory."

"Do you see these patches of white mist?"

Xia Chujian nodded.

Other places are quite clear, except for a few places which are small ovals and look a little blurry, as if covered by a layer of white mist.

Xia Yuanfang said: "These pieces of white mist are the diaphragms automatically generated by your brain tissue."

"It protects the most critical parts of your brain tissue when it is stimulated by external factors."

"In addition to the hippocampus, which is responsible for memory, there are several other places that are vital to the human body."

"However, these patches of white fog are exactly the same as the 'brain fog' phenomenon that occurs after brain tissue is damaged."

"So in the opinion of the imperial physician of the Beichen Galaxy, your brain tissue is severely damaged. Even if it can be restored, these parts will be severely damaged."

Xia Chujian was surprised: "This is automatically generated by my brain tissue?! Is it just me, or does everyone have it?!"

Xia Yuanfang said: "Of course it is unique to you."

"I carefully studied the pieces of 'white fog' that appeared in your brain."

"Not only do they protect critical parts of your brain, but they also provide a certain camouflage."

"This disguise is like..."

Xia Yuanfang paused and chose a word that Xia Chujian might understand: "This kind of camouflage is like mimicry in the biological world."

Xia Chujian's eyes widened: "Mimicry?! Is it the phenomenon of imitating another creature in appearance, color and even behavior?!"

"I remember seeing a butterfly that looked like a dead leaf when I was a kid. You said it was a leaf butterfly, a form of biological mimicry."

Xia Yuanfang nodded: "Yes, you still remember it. The mimicry can be animals or plants."

"The object they imitate can be another organism or even a non-organism, such as the environment."

“So mimicry can also be divided into two categories: simulated environment, and simulated organisms.”

But after Xia Yuanfang finished speaking, she looked at Xia Chujian with a complicated expression, thinking that she had never seen a creature that could simulate the characteristics of injuries and illnesses to protect itself...

But Xia Chujian didn't need to know this.

Xia Yuanfang simply said: "The layer of white fog in your brain is a kind of mimicry. It simulates the state of severe brain tissue damage."

Here is today's update.

See you tomorrow, darlings!

PS: It’s Monday again, please give me some votes for recommendation!
