Closer to My True Form Every Day

Chapter 24: Hypersensitive Sense of Smell

After knowing that his tongue would not split, Feng Yi felt much more relaxed. As for the different world, it wasnt like he was going to see any ghosts, so there was nothing to be afraid of!

His face was still swollen, and his nose still hurt like hell, but once he got over it, hed be fine? He would soon become numb to the pain, and once he got used to it, it wouldnt get in his way! It was only two weeks anyway! Once he had mentally convinced himself, he was at peace. Feng Yi even took the time to make himself some lunch the liquid food that he hadnt eaten in a long time.

Straw in, and just keep sucking~

After Feng Yi had had enough food and drink, he thought about the next step. He had two weeks. Not too long and not too short, but he couldnt just sit around and do nothing. He should first think about how to deal with the evolution of his nose.

Feng Yi started looking for information again, and the more he looked, the more anxious he became. The more he knew about all kinds of hypotheses and conclusions, the more worried he became. Finally, he put aside his phone and computer and stopped reading.

The only way to get rid of worries was to work out.

Exercise was also a good way to relieve stress. However, his nostrils were blocked, and it was a little uncomfortable to breathe.

In addition to checking information and practicing, Feng Yi also made other preparations. It was unwise to go into battle unprepared!

Based on the previous experience, Feng Yi began to place orders for the purchase of equipment after he had checked the information this time.

As his super olfactory organ developed, he would definitely smell all kinds of odors, so what then? What should he do when a previously good smell became pungent? For example, indole, which has special olfactory characteristics, has a floral smell at very low concentrations and various indescribable smells as the concentration increases. Could he tolerate that? Maybe he would pass out from the smell.

Having the experience of buying toothbrushes and toothpaste when he was teething, Feng Yi ordered masks online with different filtering materials and functions, and masks with filtration efficiencies of more than ninety percent, ninety-five percent, and ninety-nine percent for backup. After the purchase, he still didnt feel comfortable, so he ordered an additional dust protection mask. In addition to the scent molecules in the air, the floating dust fibers also had different smells. Feng Yi couldnt guarantee that he wouldnt be poisoned by them.

It was his first time growing an evolved version of the vomeronasal organ. He had no experience, and Feng Yi didnt know if he was exaggerating or overreacting, but he had to be prepared.

In addition to these, Feng Yi also bought ingredients that were convenient for making liquid food on the delivery platform. Originally, he thought that once the toothache and cheek pain were over, he would be able to eat whatever he wanted, so he hadnt bought the relevant things when he had stocked up yesterday. Now, the ingredients were in short supply. After placing the order, Feng Yi put on a hooded coat with a collar that could be pulled up.

As long as I pick up the food fast enough, the delivery person wont be able to see me clearly!

As for express delivery, when he placed the order, he asked the company to put it in the communitys express locker. That way, when he went to pick it up early in the morning, he would hardly run into anyone.

While he was at home, Wu Ji and Qian Feiyang called him, but they were all fooled by his various excuses. Anyway, he didnt want to see anyone until his face was no longer swollen.

One week later.

The swelling on his face had gone down and the outline of his face was just barely visible. The pain was not as bad as it had been in the beginning. Finally, he didnt have to be spot a pigs head when he went out wearing a mask. His nostrils that had been clogged for a long time were also clear. When Feng Yi was able to breathe again, he took a deep breath and immediately stuffed his nostrils with tissues.

What did hypersensitivity feel like?

It was as if countless inexplicable irritating smells were attacking him head on, and a large amount of complicated information was filling his brain in an instant. Feng Yis head was dazed by the onslaught, and he even wondered if he was living in a real world.

After regaining his senses, all Feng Yi could do was plug his nostrils

My nose is out of control right now, so Im sorry, I have to plug it first!

Just like when his two teeth were out of control when he was teething, he could only stop their work first!

At this time, the gas mask that Feng Yi had bought would play a role. Although the mask itself had a smell, at least it blocked most of the smelly gases and particles, giving his brain a chance to rest. He had to take some time to adjust to this change and see if he could control the new olfactory organ to function selectively. It would be best if he could sleep normally, otherwise he wouldnt be able to live a normal life.

This was too much!!

Feng Yi stood in front of the mirror and looked at the person in the mirror, who was wearing a breathing mask and had a dignified expression on his face, as if he was facing a life problem.

Forget it, he should just stay inside. People might think he was crazy if he went out like this.

Nothing unusual was happening outside, and it had been raining continuously for the past two days. The air quality had always been good, and the amount of rainfall was enough to wash away the pollution particles in the air.

It was fine to wear a normal face mask, but if he went out with such an exaggerated gas mask, the rate of people turning their heads was pretty much guaranteed. Maybe someone would even make a short video and post it online for discussion. If he met a curious passerby, they might be worried about whether he had a respiratory disease and could only breathe sterile air or something.

So, for the next week, Feng Yi stayed at home and went through this difficult period of adjustment.

The evolution of the nose wasnt complete, so it wasnt easy to control, but Feng Yi could try to distinguish smells and identify objects by capturing the odor molecules.

Fabrics, dining chairs, sofas, appliances, etc. all had their own smell. He could identify these smells and record them in his brain. The more information the brain had, the less it would be overwhelmed by different smells all at once. He had to be selective and focused.

Before the brain had enough processing power, the biological cost of multitasking was too high, and it was too easy to get tired. He had to adapt slowly, taking control one step at a time.

From the anti-dust mask to the mask with more than ninety-nine percent filtration, and then to ninety-five percent and ninety percent. Different masks had different filtering focuses, and the filtered particles and gases were different. After adapting to the gas information, Feng Yi quickly adapted to the particle information.

Of course, during this time, the strain on the brain was extremely high. Apart from practicing the identification of the odor information and controlling the new olfactory organ, Feng Yi only ate and slept. He was really tired out.

And at this time, the tea leaves that Uncle Mute had given him were no longer effective. The one-month validity period had passed, and the tea leaves couldnt help anymore. No matter how good the tea was, it couldnt help Feng Yi control his nose to recognize smells.

The swelling on his face had subsided, and his face was still the same, but Feng Yi still felt a little strange. Just because it looked the same, did it really mean that it was the same?

The nose seemed to be the same as before, but it had a small olfactory organ inside.

There was no extra dimple on his face, but the extra features couldnt be seen from the outside.

Looking at the gloomy sky outside, Feng Yi planned to go for a walk. Even though he had practiced identifying smells every day during this period, and his control over his nose had gradually deepened, enabling him to walk around the room with his eyes closed, he was still only confined to the house. He wanted to see what the different world that the old butler had told him about was like.
