Conan: The Mechanic

Ward.

"I didn't expect that you would really agree to such a plan," Qianyu said, pushing the back of the bed car and bringing her abdomen close to Mrs. Keiko's head.

"No one wants to have a tumor in their brain that hasn't been dealt with for a long time. People, they still cherish their own lives the most. Obviously that tumor may not exist, but they still think that it must be opened to take a look. Be at ease." Madam Keiko looked at Qianyu's rather young face and said with a smile. "However, can you tell me one more time, what's wrong with my brain?"

"In this case..." Qianyu took out a small stack of color cards from her pocket. "This is a stack of color cards, please open them one by one and think about which part of the color these colors belong to in your brain."

"Oh?" Mrs. Keiko took the card. "Well... red, blue, green, purple..."

The corners of Chiba's mouth twitched slightly, because the auxiliary unit on his chest, which was very close to Mrs. Keiko's head because of the cart's posture, was interacting with Ms. Keiko's brain and reading the working conditions of the brain. .

During his studies, Shiho Miyano mentioned such a conjecture in a paper on the differences in brain structure between individuals published in "Current": Although everyone's brain structure has quite obvious differences in various aspects , but may remain highly consistent in other respects.

Now, the evidence for this hypothetical route is in Chiba's auxiliary unit.

Before testing Mrs. Keiko, Chiba had already tested Miyano Shiho and herself with an auxiliary unit, and the two would be excited in highly similar brain parts when they saw images of the same color. And different colors will light up different parts of the brain, and you can even infer what color the other person sees based on the part of the brain that lights up.

At the same time, Gregory also contacted the directors of the hospital through his personal contacts, and advocated the introduction of a batch of the most advanced brain science equipment, which has been put into use recently.

This includes a device that can provide a similar auxiliary unit to detect specific areas of the brain that are excited.

And now, a very precious case sample is right in front of them.

According to their inference, Mrs. Keiko's problem was not that his eyes couldn't see the picture properly, but that his brain couldn't properly process the colors he saw. In other words...

The auxiliary unit read the image of Mrs. Keiko when she was looking at the red card - the excited area with Chiba, Miyano Shiho, Gregory and Fujiwara and Hotaru was significantly shifted.

In other words, judging from the excited part of the brain, the color she sees is not the real red in the eyes of everyone, but... a false red that is more inclined to gray.

On the next one, the yellow card, her brain's excitation area also deviates from the normal part.

Immediately after, the next one.

This is the purpose of Qianyu volunteering to push the hospital bed car-before he pushed the car into the operating room, he had already obtained enough drafts to complete at least 3 high-quality journal papers.

Next, what he has to do is not to operate in the operating room, but to watch with Gregory in the observation room of the operating room.

"How's your dissertation going - I'm not talking about the one we were with, but what the two of you prepared to write by yourself." Gregory said suddenly. "If you prepared so many materials before, it must be for writing, right?"

"Well, it's mainly materials for Shibao. If you apply for a doctorate, it would be much better to have such a novel thesis." Qian Yu was still staring at the electronic screen in the observation room. "After all... with that paper on your side, Shiho definitely won't be able to get into the C position, and the main purpose should be to improve the resume for Fujiwara or Hotaru?"

"Well, which publication are you going to submit to?"

"I haven't made up my mind yet. Shibao's plan is to send it to a teacher she is familiar with at the undergraduate level, and then the teacher will see which side matches her better..." Qianyu shook her head. "Zhibao and I don't have a lot of experience in publishing articles, and we mainly follow the guidance of our mentors to publish."

"If you don't mind, check it out after writing, and I'll be the corresponding author," Gregory snorted softly. "Don't underestimate me, I've been a reviewer and there are many publications that have cooperative relations. If nothing else, NEURON or similar publications can still help you get a page."

"Really or not?" Qianyu was stunned—even though he was not a medical major and didn't know the status of this journal, he had heard this name during one of Shibo's thoughts about publishing a paper.

"It was very annoying. I spent a long time preparing at the time, and I thought that even if I couldn't pass it directly, I just needed to fix some insignificant mistakes." At that time... it should be said that it was still Haibara Ai, who said so bitterly. "In the end, they rejected it like that - my supervisor said that this is actually normal, because although my thesis has a considerable level of knowledge, because the scale of the experiment is not large enough and the ideas are not innovative enough, it is only [ A simple backbone article], and this level cannot impress high-level publications.”

And now, Gregory so carelessly vouches for a page in such a publication with his promise...

"Of course it's true. In fact, the editor-in-chief of a better journal communicated with me before and asked me if it was possible to use the neurological instruments introduced by the corn to publish some difficult papers on intractable diseases." Gerry Gaoli threw another bombshell in a flat tone~www.NovelMTL.com~ If you write really well, I can lower the priority of a case I originally prepared, and let you become a sub-journal of Nature One work. "

Just when Chiba didn't know how to express her gratitude, a voice came from the operating room.

"The skull has been cut open, ready to place detection equipment."

The detection device is a neural network, which is equivalent to a general-purpose version of Chiba's auxiliary unit with a cut in the working distance, but with more comprehensive functions. The device can measure the conduction velocity of neurons and determine if something is blocking the signal—such as a lump of cancer that looks like a brain but is actually a fake. And these analysis results will be analyzed in the computer, indicating the specific scope of cutting.

"The results are analyzed," Fujiwara, who was in charge of fiddling with the human-computer interface, turned the screen to the chief surgeon, and reported to Gregory at the same time. "She is lucky, the cancerous parts are concentrated in the outermost layer of the brain, and it is very difficult to remove."

"Let's do it then. Next is your most precious training time. If you have any questions, save them and ask them after the surgery." Fishing instructions.

"So," Chiyu asked beside him. "After the operation, she should be able to see normally, right?"

"In principle, a certain proportion of her visual part has been damaged, and it will definitely be weakened to a certain extent after the excision," Gregory shrugged. "But the brain should be able to solve the compensation problem on its own and eventually restore vision to an acceptable level -- people are strong."

"So, is this case closed?"

"It's almost done, the rest is just spam."
