Xia Chuhe mixed flour and water to make a bowl of thick white water.
Bu Yi asked curiously, "You're going to cook for yourself?"
Xia Chuhe: "Want to try it on your face?"
"This won't do, will it?" Despite saying that, Bu Yi did not refuse, but actually spread the flour paste evenly on his face.
Having painted his entire face a dull, white, and still unnaturally pale, Bu Yi leaned closer to the skin tone chart, unlocking a new assessment—
Super fair skin!
Allowed
Although Bu Yi eventually got stuck on the scale, at least one problem was solved.
The strong girl, secretly observing, thought: "This actually works?!..."
Inspired by Xia Chuhe, Bu Yi began to engage in some rather unorthodox practices in front of the weighing scale, including but not limited to—
Weighing himself while holding onto the door, weighing himself while leaning on Xia Chuhe's shoulder, weighing himself on one leg, weighing himself upside down with one hand, weighing himself on half his body...
In short, I tried every possible method to make the scale show a smaller result without changing my actual weight.
However, no matter how Bu Yi changed his position, the scale just wouldn't cooperate.
The silent weighing scale was even forced to emit an electronic voice: "Beep—Please don't deceive yourself by weighing yourself."
Xia Chuhe squatted in front of the weighing scale and looked up at Bu Yi: "What if I don't change myself, but instead change this scale?"
The weighing scale on the glass door looks no different from a modern electronic scale, mainly using the lever balance principle of force and pressure sensors.
In a lever system, the magnitude of pressure (human weight) can be manipulated at will simply by changing the position of the fulcrum.
Coincidentally, Xia Chuhe can use his magical mechanical omniscience ability once a day.
Xia Chuhe placed her hand on the scale and instantly felt all its internal structure. As she expected, it was a repositionable lever; by moving the fulcrum towards the point of force application, the force received by the sensor would be reduced, thus making the number displayed on the scale smaller.
Xia Chuhe successfully changed the position of the fulcrum.
Strangely, the scale had a wire connected to the glass door, and Xia Chuhe couldn't move it at all.
After making the changes, Xia Chuhe gestured for Bu Yi to stand up: "Give it a try."
Bu Yi stood on the scale again, and the result showed that she weighed 30kg, only half of her actual weight.
Bu Yi was overjoyed and stepped towards the glass door, only to be shut out with a "thud".
The Moon Goddess's lazy voice rang out: "Divine objects from the Kingdom of Gods are not to be altered. This is a one-time exception."
Xia Chuhe: "..." Oh, you big head.
If the path to changing the weighing scale is blocked, the only option left is to change oneself.
Xia Chuhe weighs over 60 kilograms. If she wants to lose weight to 40 kilograms, she would have to lose a third of her body weight...
Even with one less leg, it still wouldn't reach this weight!
One leg missing...
Xia Chuhe fell into deep thought. If one leg isn't enough, what about adding an arm to the leg?
The moon goddess on the platform looks like a mere decoration, using harsh conditions to keep outsiders out of the glass enclosure, which suggests that the moon goddess herself must be quite fragile.
Even if the Moon Goddess has only one arm and one leg, she should still be able to defeat her, right?
Xia Chuhe began to consider the feasibility of the plan.
Previously at the Birds of Prey Academy, Wang Yan injured his lung when he took a bullet for her. After being given a regeneration drug, the lung wound healed, saving Wang Yan's life.
If the severed arms and legs are properly placed, is there still a chance to reattach them using a regeneration potion?
Xia Chuhe asked the question slowly.
Bu Yi was the first to object: "No way! It's not that easy! The bullet wound is less than a centimeter long. You can't take that risk! Even if the limb could be reattached, would the scale recognize this kind of weight loss?"
Li Yue gave a direct answer: "It's impossible. Five Star Company has conducted similar experiments. The maximum effectiveness of the regeneration agent is only at the size of a wrist, and that's only possible if the severed hand is preserved. Even if it's reattached, it will take a long time to recover."
With both teammates objecting, Xia Chuhe had no choice but to comply.
The strong girl was too intimidated by Xia Chuhe's wildly imaginative ideas to comment.
The four of them were stumped again.
Just then, a loud "uh" sound suddenly came from the corner of the wall.
Xia Chuhe and the others turned their heads to look, and a chubby city dweller let out a loud burp, the food he had just eaten bursting out of his mouth like fireworks.
The food scraps that exploded fell to the ground and disappeared.
The round city dweller's figure slowly shrunk, getting thinner and thinner, thinner and thinner...
He's become as thin as a dried-up human body.
He's become so thin he's practically a skeleton.
He's become so thin he's practically turned to dust.
A gentle breeze rises from the flat ground.
Nothing was left behind.
...
The impact of witnessing someone being burst open and then losing all their weight is completely incomparable to Xia Chuhe's effortless chopping off of hands and legs.
But the city dwellers in the room were completely oblivious to this; they were so engrossed in their food and toys that they paid no attention to anyone else.
Despite the utterly disgusting scene, Li Yue murmured, "I'm so hungry."
Bu Yi tacitly replied, "Me too."
The strong girl murmured, "I want to eat something..."
Xia Chuhe swallowed hard; she was hungry too.
The allure of food is amplified countless times when a person feels hungry.
The strong girl was both distressed and confused: "If this continues, we'll end up like the other villagers—eating, eating until we burst, vomiting, and losing all our weight..."
“Wait, vomiting… have you lost weight…” Xia Chuhe had a sudden inspiration.
In a confined space, can vomiting in a normal person achieve weight loss? Is the vomiting process controllable? Is vomiting a medical condition?
If it can really achieve weight loss, and it's a medical condition, then things will be much easier.
