Chapter 15: Brain death

Jiang Hui then realized how stupid she was and that she almost did something stupid. Otherwise, according to the binding time of the space button, she would have to buy the hospital gown and take it away with her or wait until the next day to be discharged from the hospital.

"Did you bring any clothes with you?" Xu Jia asked again.

Jiang Hui nodded. The original body's memory was quite clear, because she had brought a small number of commonly used belongings with her when she came from the Inner Galaxy. Most of the property that was inconvenient to move was left in the house her parents left her in the Inner Galaxy, and she had applied to the local district and was approved for temporary closure.

This space button was one of the two that the original body brought with him. The original body had been using it since childhood, and vaguely remembered that it contained a lot of daily necessities, including clothes, which he would just take out and wear later.

"That's good, there's no problem. You can go through the discharge procedures and go home in a while. Remember to take your medicine, and report any further problems to the hospital immediately." Xu Jia instructed patiently again.

Seeing that the conversation was coming to an end, Jiang Hui planned to stand up and see the other person off. After all, she was not really so sick that she couldn't get up.

"You... I see you—" The other person took a few steps and suddenly stopped: "What did I want to ask just now?"

Although it is not very obvious, it is very different for a person to be in a state of wanting to speak but not being able to speak. She can easily see that the girl seems to be confused about a problem, even a little troubled.

When the other party asked this, Jiang Hui subconsciously touched her face. Is it really that obvious? She tried very hard not to ask, but in the end, she was still seen through.

"What are you worried about? Are you feeling unwell somewhere? If you feel any discomfort, you must tell us right away. You can't hide anything. Psychotropics are made of special ingredients, and the pilot solution is the basis for taking the medicine. If the body or nerves cannot adapt to the subsequent absorption, there will be big problems." Xu Jia said to Jiang Hui very seriously.

Of course it's not this, Jiang Hui thought to herself, otherwise she would have said it earlier, and why would she be so embarrassed. She was still hesitating whether she should say this question, because it seemed very wrong in the whole environment. She was afraid that the situation like that day when Fu Lai screamed for help in fear would happen again. That scene was too beautiful.

"After I lost too much blood and fainted that day, I briefly felt that my mental power had lost contact with my body. It felt like... my soul had left my body." Jiang Hui seemed to be trying hard to describe that state.

"Now that I'm awake, I don't have that feeling, but why do I always have a feeling that my mental strength and body are not in harmony? It's like there's something else sandwiched between them, and it makes me feel uncomfortable." Jiang Hui said half-truthfully.

It was true that her head was throbbing and pounding, but it was more true that she wanted to explore something deeper, which was also what she wanted to know most at the moment.

Xu Jia listened quietly and did not answer her immediately, but his hands had stopped moving and he involuntarily faced the girl on the bed.

"Soul? This word is also very old-fashioned. Have you considered majoring in ancient Chinese language and literature in the future? But people don't say that anymore. It should be fictional. You mean brain waves?" Oh, thank you for the guidance. If it is ancient Chinese of this level, she thinks she can do it too.

"I'm not sure how to answer you on this one. Even though every organ in the human body can be studied to the tiniest detail, the brain is still an area that humans are unable to fully explore."

"Take the injury you sustained that day as an example. You injured two lobes of your brain, which is suspected to have caused functional damage. However, physical injuries to the brain are relatively easy to repair through surgery and treatment cabins. However, we cannot confirm whether there is a problem with your brain area based solely on the condition of your brain organs, because a person's brain area does not only refer to the brain organ, but also includes a magnetic field field that changes at any time, formed by the radio waves generated by all brain tissues."

“And this magnetic field is actually the source of spiritual power as we understand it.”

Jiang Hui had not studied mental power on his own so far, so he didn't understand what he heard, but he just tried hard to understand.

Xu Jia paused. She knew that this might not be easy to understand. After all, the brain power of the current generation of the upper class has not been completely analyzed, and the theory is relatively abstract. So it is better not to embarrass the child. She quickly changed the explanation and said, "You had a brain injury that day. After we cured you, we began to determine that your brain was not affected by the test of your vital signs and brain waves. Who would have thought..."

Who would have thought that she was a time traveler. She really didn't know where this place was, what happened, and she didn't even know that she had traveled through time. Jiang Hui added in his heart.

"... Later we treated her and basically fixed the disordered brain functions." From what they said, they diagnosed her symptoms as brain dysfunction. The disordered brain waves affected the brain's magnetic field and caused temporary memory loss.

"But the effects of brain wave disorder cannot be healed in a short period of time. That's why you need to take mental stabilizers. Otherwise, your brain area and mental strength will be affected."

Xu Jia walked back to Jiang Hui at some point, took out a stack of what should be her medical records from a storage unit behind her, flipped through a few pages, frowned, and handed them to Jiang Hui to read. Unfortunately, many of the data and terms on it were too professional, mixed with a lot of interstellar terms, and it was hard to understand even after my eyes hurt, so I had to give up.

"It is said that brain wave disorder is the most difficult type of disease to accurately define, and it can also cause different complications. You said that you felt your mental power was separated. It should be that the brain wave fluctuations were too large at the time, causing your mental power to slightly escape the range of the brain wave. In other words, it seems like your soul has split."

Jiang Hui was shocked: "If the mental power escapes from the brain waves and can't return to the body, then the person can't wake up?" In this case, the original owner might have been unable to return to the body because of the mental power escaping from the brain waves, and then she floated in somehow. Then, isn't it possible that she really took over another body

But the next moment Xu Jia denied her idea: "Theoretically, it is possible. But you may have made a common sense mistake. Although mental power relies on the brain, it is not a necessary condition for a person to live. People without mental power can survive normally. As long as the brain functions normally and the brain waves are still there, even if the mental power disappears, the person's consciousness can still move."

“Only those whose brain waves have completely disappeared can be considered brain dead.”
