The wound on Lin Fan's stomach was becoming lighter and lighter, turning from purple-red to a light pink. The pain gradually subsided, and she was able to walk out of bed without help.
The activity in the cells was still increasing. Kuang Li reported this discovery internally to 623 and requested a new biochemical laboratory team.
But unfortunately, apart from the obvious cell activity, the biochemistry team did not find anything else in Lin Fan's biological samples.
"So Kuang Li and the others are jealous every day now, and they can't wait to get a microscope in." Li Chunhua accompanied Lin Fan for dinner and gossiped with her.
"I was wondering, Kuang Li has been looking at me like he wants to rip my skin off lately." Lin Fan ate his meal in big mouthfuls. "So it wasn't an illusion."
Lin Fan had noticed several times that Kuang Li stared at her intensely, then quickly looked away when she looked over. She had thought Kuang Li was just like that, but wasn't he? Was he feeling guilty...
"No, no." Li Chunhua shook her head and nodded again, "But did they find something or not? If you say they found something, it's almost there. If you say they didn't find anything, they actually found something."
"Just eat quickly." Song Ren cleaned up the dishes and saw Li Chunhua still chatting with Lin Fan in the ward, so he couldn't help but urge her.
Li Chunhua shrank her neck and stopped talking.
Lin Fan laughed heartily, his stomach aching. Seeing Song Ren looking over, he quickly pretended nothing was wrong and chewed with a serious face.
Before Song Ren could turn his head away, he heard Lin Fan scream "Ah".
"What's wrong?" Li Chunhua stood up with a frightened look on her face, holding the lunch box.
Lin Fan frowned, opened his mouth, and spat out a mouthful of rice. "I bit a stone."
"Impossible." Song Ren approached, "It's impossible for the cafeteria to make such a low-level mistake."
Hmm? Isn't it normal to bite a stone while eating? Lin Fan blinked and looked at Li Chunhua, "It's not strange to see anything in the cafeteria food, right?"
"That's impossible in the 800-square-meter cafeteria," Li Chunhua also put down his plate and looked over. "Those guys in the cafeteria are like using microscopes to wash rice and vegetables. You can't even find a grain of sand, let alone a stone. Boss, what is it?"
Song Ren had already used a tissue to push away the rice and found a black hard object.
"What is this?" Li Chunhua frowned. "Is it really a stone?"
Song Ren wiped it with a tissue. It turned out to be a black object about two millimeters in diameter, with an irregular shape. It was opaque, and even deformed when squeezed hard...
"It looks a bit like silver." Song Ren hesitated.
"What? Silver? Black?" Li Chunhua was stunned.
"Silver turns black after oxidation." Song Ren wasn't surprised. "But why did it appear in the rice..."
Could it be that the cafeteria chefs were really careless and just happened to be caught by Lin Fan?
"We can't ignore this," Li Chunhua said, swiping the communicator as she prepared to complain to the cafeteria. "If someone accidentally eats this, will it be okay?"
"That..." Lin Fan was lost in thought when he heard Song Ren mention silver. Seeing Li Chunhua about to complain, he quickly raised his hand to stop him. "This might be the material for my tooth filling."
Seeing the two looking over, he quickly explained, "I had a tooth filled with silver years ago. Did it just happen to fall out?"
"That's possible." Song Ren nodded. "Where did you patch it? Open your mouth and let me see if it's still there."
"It's the third one from the top right. I remember it was a pointed one. I could see a black dot when I looked in the mirror." After saying this, Lin Fan opened his mouth and tilted his head back.
When she saw Song Ren's handsome face approaching from the corner of her eye and looking into her mouth seriously, she suddenly felt a little socially dead.
What kind of death angle is this? Why let the handsome guy see her bloody mouth? She just ate and didn't rinse her mouth yet...
"I can't see the black spot you mentioned, but there is a small hole the size of a sesame seed on the tooth." Song Ren didn't care what Lin Fan was thinking at all and looked at her teeth carefully.
"Ah?" Lin Fan shut up and gulped, "So it fell off, right?"
"It's possible, but I'm not sure. And it feels like such a small hole, the size doesn't match the silver." Song Ren collected the fallen silver particles. "To confirm, we need to find a dentist."
Lin Fan was just about to say no, it wasn't a big deal and it didn't hurt, when he saw Li Chunhua running out. A moment later, he heard his loud voice. "Doctor Xiao, do you know how to treat teeth?"
...Okay, let's go to the dentist...
After understanding the whole story, Dr. Xiao shone his flashlight on the area and said, "I'm not good at dentistry, but I can ask a dentist to come for a consultation."
"No need," Lin Fan took the opportunity to refuse. "It's not a toothache. I don't feel anything. Don't bother to see a dentist."
Doctor Xiao shook his head. "It's better to take a look. You probably don't know what's happening to you."
"What's the matter?" Lin Fan was puzzled. She looked at Dr. Xiao, then at Song Ren and Li Chunhua. "Is there something I don't know?"
"Your body now has super self-healing ability, you know it," asked Dr. Xiao.
"I know. Didn't they say that I absorbed 818 and evolved again?" She found out this shortly after she woke up.
She didn't feel anything at first, but when she saw there was no wound on her stomach, she was very surprised. But after all, this was a good thing, better than having a bloody hole in her stomach.
"Then do you know that in addition to your self-healing ability, you also have the ability to reject foreign matter?" Doctor Xiao had never told Lin Fan this, and he didn't know if anyone else had told him.
"Rejection? What is it?" Sure enough, Lin Fan showed a puzzled expression.
"During the repair process, your body will reject anything outside of it," Dr. Xiao said. "Didn't you notice? Your earrings are long gone."
Lin Fan subconsciously touched his earlobe, but found nothing.
The earrings were small and light, so she wouldn't normally notice them. The same thing happened with the Transformer; unless she touched it, she wouldn't even notice if it was on her ear. Plus, she hadn't looked in the mirror recently, so naturally, she wouldn't have noticed the earrings were gone.
"How could that be? The earrings that Mr. Qian gave me won't fall off." Lin Fan remembered that Mr. Qian had said how sturdy the treasure he had refined with his own hands was.
"During the surgery, your body had an immune response that pushed the earring out," Song Ren said. "That's Jin Sichen's guess, and we think it's reasonable."
"But...what does that have to do with teeth?" Lin Fan was puzzled.
"We all thought the rejection reaction was over after the surgery," Dr. Xiao said, "but if your filling isn't falling off naturally but is being rejected, then that proves..."
"Your body is still rejecting the immune system!" Li Chunhua clasped his hands together and shouted, scaring everyone.
Song Ren glanced at him unhappily and continued to talk to Lin Fan, "So Dr. Xiao's purpose in calling the dentist should be to confirm this suspicion."
"Yes. Let the dentist take a look. Did the material fall off naturally? Is the filling still there, or has it shrunk and healed?" Dr. Xiao nodded. "If wounds heal, will cavities heal too? Enamel and dentin, unlike bone and muscle, aren't supposed to have any ability to heal..."
Lin Fan looked at Dr. Xiao, who had a serious expression, and blinked.
It's just a patch falling off, is it that serious?
