The science preparation room of the second-year students of the General Martial Arts Department welcomed two guests during lunch break.
This was considered to be the secret base of Futaba Rio, although it was only limited to lunch breaks and other resting times when no one would come.
"W-Would you like some coffee?" asked Rio Futaba nervously.
"Then I'll leave it to you." Liu Baiyin said with a smile.
Rio Futaba was easily nervous in front of Liu Baiyin. Liu Baiyin did not think too much about it, thinking that it was because their relationship was not good enough and that Rio Futaba was more introverted.
Rio Futaba skillfully took out a beaker, alcohol content, and holder from the cabinet. The brown powder in the transparent glass jar should be coffee.
Since it was instant coffee, there was no need for complicated steps. He just boiled the water and poured it into the coffee powder.
"Please enjoy."
Rio Futaba placed the beaker in front of Liu Baiyin along with a small black jar.
The chemical formula was written on the label of the jar, and Liu Baiyin could vaguely recognize it.
Manganese dioxide!
It was a commonly used oxidiser catalyst.
"Did I offend Shuangye at some unknown time?" Liu Baiyin asked helplessly.”
"Eh?" Rio Futaba didn't know what to do and even made a cute sound.
"Why…do you ask?"
"I think that drinking Manganese Dioxid would be very bad for a normal person.”
" That's white sugar," said Rio Futaba.”
Liu Baiyin was a little embarrassed.""I'm sorry."
"I'm fine…"
Liu Baiyin opened the bottle with the words 'Manganese Dioxide'. Even though Rio Futaba had said so, it still took courage to add this.
Fortunately, the titanium dioxide was in the form of a black powder, so it was obvious after pouring it out.
"Thank you for your hospitality."
After Liu Baiyin finished her coffee, she started to talk about serious matters with Rio Futaba.
"Actually, I read a science magazine recently and I don't understand some of the content. I want to ask Futaba's opinion.”
"Although I might not be able to answer it…I will work hard!”Rio Futaba said seriously.
"It's not such a serious topic. Just treat it as a chat between friends.”
" Friends..." Rio Futaba mumbled.
"What's wrong?" Liu Baiyin didn't hear him clearly.
"Nothing. Tell me about your problem.”Rio Futaba shook her head.
"Alright then. I wanted to know under what circumstances one would not be able to see a particular person, of course, without disease.”
Rio Futaba took Liu Baiyin's question very seriously. After some serious consideration, she replied,""From my point of view…the human brain won't look at things that it doesn't want to see. For example, Liu Jun is right in front of me. If I'm thinking about a problem or in a daze, I won't notice you.”
Liu Baiyin nodded. She could understand.
" There is the so-called 'observational theory'. The theory that only when something in this world is observed by someone can its existence be confirmed.”
This was a concept that involved quantum mechanics.
Regardless of whether it was her previous life or this life, Liu Baiyin had never studied quantum mechanics in depth, so she didn't know much.
Quantum mechanics was the microscopic world described by scientists, and the corresponding philosophy could be seen as a macro concept.
For example, there was a saying in philosophy that 'existence is reasonable', which contradicted this' observational theory'.
"Like Schrodinger's Cat?"
"That's right. Liu Jun also has some understanding in this area.”Rio Futaba smiled and complimented Liu Baiyin.
"No, no…"
Liu Baiyin's expression almost froze.
After watching the entire season of " Teenage Bunny ", he could only remember a few similar terms. He was really sorry!
Pretending to know in front of someone who really knew was as ridiculous as a primary school student showing off to a high school student that he knew how to solve a linear equation of two variables.
He really wanted to find a hole to hide in!
Fortunately, Rio Futaba did not 'test' Liu Baiyin's knowledge. She continued,""Schrodinger's Cat, put a cat in the box and release the poison gas within an hour. What will happen to the cat after half an hour?”
"Maybe alive, maybe dead." Liu Baiyin said.
"That's right. You need to open the box to confirm it. Before the box is opened, the cat will be in a half-dead state.”
Liu Baiyin had a flash of inspiration…it wasn't that she had thought of a good idea, but that she had recalled that part of the story.
"I understand. Thank you so much, Shuangye!”Liu Baiyin said gratefully.
"It's good that I can help." said Rio Futaba.
After getting the answer from Rio Futaba, Liu Baiyin finally knew how to cure Mai Sakura Island's illness.
Before the 'Observer' observed, Mai Sakurajima's existence could not be confirmed.
The so-called 'observers' were all the teachers and students of this school.
When Mai Sakurajima first entered school, she had unfinished work to do. In fact, she only officially started classes after the summer vacation.
At that time, the social circle in the class had already been settled. Coupled with Mai Sakurajima's dazzling light, the class and even the entire school deliberately ignored her.
Just like what Rio Futaba had said, humans would not see what they did not want to see, so Mai Sakurajima became invisible.
"How pitiful." Liu Baiyin sighed.
He had clearly done nothing wrong, but he had almost 'disappeared' because of the 'inferiority' of others.
This was also a microcosm of a certain aspect of society.
When Liu Baiyin and Rio Futaba returned to the classroom, the bell rang. Liu Baiyin greeted Rio Futaba and returned to her seat.
……
……
Liu Baiyin originally wanted to talk to Mai Sakurajima about the situation, but the bunny girl senior took leave today, so she could only wait until next time.
Fortunately, Mai Sakurajima's 'symptoms' were relatively stable now, so there was no need to rush.
After school in the afternoon, Liu Baiyin went to pick up Mashiro. Mashiro's classmates surrounded her and squeezed her way out.
Mashiro was so famous internationally that it was understandable that she was sought after by her peers who also had the same goal of painting.
Tsk, they were both 'celebrities' who had been transferred halfway, but why was there such a huge difference between Mai Sakurashima and Mashiro?
Ultimately, it was a matter of personality.
Liu Baiyin wasn't a student of Mai Sakura Island, so she wasn't too sure about the bunny girl senpai's enrollment.
However, he guessed that perhaps it was Mai Sakurajima's domineering aura that made people not dare to approach her.
Under such circumstances, if others were to interact with her, if they were too cold, they would be said to be 'conceited' and if they were too enthusiastic, they would be treated as 'bootlickers.' She was afraid that she would be isolated by her classmates, so she decided not to interact with Mai Sakurashima.
Compared to Mai Sakurajima, Mashiro's cute and silly characteristics were likable, and she was less likely to be ostracized.
