As Pei Wu used professional tools to carefully cut open the artificial silicone skin on Shao Sang's abdomen, a thin layer of blood seeped out. Although the color of the blood was made as close as possible to real human blood, upon closer inspection, the bright red was still different from the red of real blood.
Moreover, the blood only flowed for a short while, and stopped flowing once the artificial bodily fluids stored in the body were used up. After all, Shao Sang did not have a strong blood-producing function and relied entirely on the artificial bodily fluids stored in her body.
Although Shao Sang's design is extremely similar to that of a real human, with body temperature and bodily fluids, it is fundamentally different from a real human. It maintains its surface body temperature by using a 'heat plate' under its artificial skin, and even bodily fluids such as tears, saliva, and sweat are maintained by artificial bodily fluids stored in its body.
Pei Wu used a special cotton ball she had prepared to clean the artificial blood that had seeped out from Shao Sang.
Before performing this 'surgery', Pei Wu had already estimated the amount of 'blood' in Shao Sang's body. It was just something to add on, and Sun Min didn't design a large quantity.
Soon, after Pei Wu cleaned up the artificial blood, Shao Sang's abdominal cavity was fully revealed to Pei Wu.
Although Pei Wu knew that Shao Sang's body was a robot made of data and metal, perhaps because Shao Sang looked too much like a flesh-and-blood 'person', Pei Wu was still slightly taken aback when she saw the various metal chips and circuits inside the other's abdominal cavity.
Sun Min completely simulated Shao Sang's abdominal cavity as a real man's abdominal cavity, using composite materials to create an artificial membrane. This membrane also completely simulated the structure of this part of the body. At first, this membrane was about the size of an adult man's fist. Later, this membrane would gradually grow larger as the baby inside the membrane developed. However, the gradually growing membrane would also squeeze and displace the various organs inside the body. After the child was born, it would slowly shrink back to its original size.
Compared to a normal man, Shao Sang's body has no other internal organs. His body only has intersecting wires. Even so, the membranes that have expanded due to the growth of the child have squeezed these wires together.
Compared to the thin film that humans eventually become transparent from stretching, the film made of composite materials by Dr. Sun Min is much better. Pei Wu could see that the film had excellent toughness and at least did not become transparent due to expansion.
Pei Wu could not see the child inside the membrane.
"Just as we guessed, she used Holmes as the material for the abdominal cavity where the baby was conceived," Pei Wu and Wei Guangmo said.
"knew."
Holmes is a man-made composite material that is an upgrade from traditional insulation materials. Thanks to its structural characteristics, it retains its inherent insulation properties while also possessing excellent mechanical properties, a good thermal insulation system, and wear resistance.
Once researched and launched, it was widely used in the medical field.
Pei Wu gave her conclusion, and Wei Guangmo then adjusted the computer settings and brought the prepared tools to Pei Wu.
Wei Guangmo noticed Pei Wu's furrowed brows, patted her shoulder gently, and reassured her, "If you feel nervous, I'll take over."
"It's okay, I can manage on my own."
"Um."
Even the usually calm and composed Pei Wu felt a little nervous when faced with the task of removing the child from her husband's womb herself.
As the special knife slowly cut open the membrane surrounding the child in Shao Sang's abdominal cavity, a stream of liquid slowly leaked out from the opening.
"..." Wei Guangmo, who was standing to the side, used special tools to absorb the overflowing liquid little by little.
Once the liquid was completely drained and the opening in the membrane was just big enough to pull the child out, Pei Wu, wearing gloves, took the child out.
The child's body was white from being soaked in water, and his little face was all wrinkled up, making it impossible to make out his appearance for a moment.
Seeing that the child wasn't crying, Pei Wu slapped the child's bottom. After hearing the child cry loudly, she handed the child over to Wei Guangmo. She still needed to sew up Shao Sang's body.
"It's a girl."
Wei Guangmo took the child, cleaned him up briefly, and then wrapped him in a prepared blanket.
"Um."
Pei Wu's focus was entirely on the sutures in her hands, and she didn't even lift her head. Pei Wu's work at this moment was not only to suture Shao Sang's skin, but also to reconnect the lines that were damaged when the artificial silicone was cut open, and to repair the damaged temperature sensor in her abdomen.
Soon, Shao Sang's body was completely stitched up. Because artificial skin does not have the self-healing ability of human skin, a specially developed 'glue' was needed to assist in the stitching. The glue was extremely sticky, but it needed to be left to dry for three days to strengthen it. During this period, it could not be exposed to water and the area needed to be kept dry. After three days, once the glue had dried completely, the sutures used to fix it could be removed.
"Debugging the system."
Pei Wu cut the sutures and spoke to Wei Guangmo.
"knew."
The baby who had been crying just moments before suddenly quieted down. Perhaps because she was newly born and her eyes were still closed, or perhaps it was some kind of telepathy, just as Pei Wu spoke to Wei Guangmo, her little head turned slightly toward Pei Wu.
The baby's small body was still very soft, and the movement of turning her neck seemed to use all her strength. Her soft, small body seemed unable to coordinate with her heavy head, making her movements look very comical. She was trying to turn her head, but it moved her whole body, and her little hands on both sides of her head also moved back and forth.
"The debugging process is underway, and she should wake up soon." Wei Guangmo was referring to Shao Sang, who was lying there. "Why don't you take a look at your daughter? She's someone's child, whom she carried for ten months. How can you not feel any joy as a mother?"
After hearing Wei Guangmo's words, Pei Wu turned to look at her daughter lying there.
Pei Wu was completely dazed; her forehead and palms were sweaty. She had conducted countless experiments, but none had ever matched the state of mind she felt today, with her husband and child lying on her lab table.
The baby was probably hungry, sucking on his thumb, but he wasn't crying or fussing.
“…” Wei Guangmo looked at the data on the computer and continued, “All functions are restarting, the system program is running normally, and the machine will restart in thirty seconds.”
"Countdown in progress...29...28..."
“15...10...”
"3...2...1..."
As the data displayed on the computer screen changed to '0', the chip behind Shao Sang's neck flashed red a few times. Pei Wu, who had been watching Shao Sang, saw Shao Sang slowly open her eyes...
