Ladies Tea Tasting (8) (Umihara Dono Chapter)
At the door of the Tokiwadai student dormitory, Dome was stopped by the dormitory supervisor.
His bichromatic pupils will definitely be misunderstood, although he had expected it a long time ago, but he didn't expect it to be so strict that after the explanation, he would have to be opened by the dormitory supervisor to check whether he was really not wearing colored contact lenses.
I've long heard that Tokiwadai's school rules are extremely strict, but now it seems that there is really no exaggeration.
Although there is no explicit rule, new Tokiwadai students tidy up their dormitories after the entrance ceremony. Compared to most students, Dome did arrive at the dormitory much later because it took too much time to register the student assistants. Probably in the eyes of the dormitory, he is the type who doesn't pay much attention to the rules. It's really not too easy to turn this impression around, and the dormitory supervisor knows at a glance that he is not the type that is easy to deal with.
It is said that the dormitory supervisor of another dormitory in Tokiwadai is even more difficult to deal with, and it really makes people want to cry for the classmates in that dormitory.
But then again, the dormitory warden should have known that she was the granddaughter of Tokiwadai's chairman when she heard her name. Under this premise, there is still no element of accommodation, and this kind of fairness that treats everyone equally is quite desirable.
Actually, when it comes to Tokiwadai's dormitory, there are some topics. Tokiwadai has two student dormitories, one in the Campus and the other outside the Campus. Although they are all designed in a retro European style, some parts of the dormitory outside the school garden were outsourced to outside companies. As a result, they somewhat misunderstood Tokiwadai, resulting in some nouveau riche feeling in the decoration. And comparatively speaking, the dormitory in the garden of the school house is more European.
Another difference from the dormitory outside the Garden of the School House is that the room numbers embedded in the doors of each room use different designs, from colors to fonts and even various details, and even the two rooms are the same.
The room assigned to the Dome is the eighth room on the third floor of the dormitory in the Garden of the Academy. The number 308 on the door happens to be a patchwork of golden-green and purple faux quartz, the same color as Qiongna's eyes (which Qiongno thinks may have been deliberately arranged by her teacher, who had seen her in the morning). After all, if you deal with the teachers of Tokiwadai a lot, you will find that they are sometimes very funny.) And it was deliberately shaped to look twisted and broken, looking like a shattered gemstone. I don't know if someone is playing a prank.,0 in the middle of someone drew a "=" sign, and up and down along the arc of the number to draw clockwise and counterclockwise arc arrows. In the clockwise direction is written "Practicus", and in the counterclockwise direction are written two words of unknown meaning, "Magister_Templi". Probably because of the embedded door pattern, I really can't see it at all if I don't look very closely. If it weren't for the fact that the number was the same color as his own eyes, Qiongno wouldn't have looked closely and finally discovered this.
Due to Tokiwadai's strict admission system, the number of students has remained at only about 200, so the dormitory rooms are always relatively affluent, and some students are always allocated a single room.
However, the dome has roommates.
I've never been alone with other girls.,Dome is still a little uncomfortable.。 She stood in front of her room, thinking about how she should deal with her roommate.
At that moment, the door was suddenly opened from the inside.
The girl standing behind the door didn't intend to go out, but just bowed to the dome as if she had known about the dome for a long time.
"When we first met, my name was Hoshikawa. Are you my roommate? Please advise. ”
"Ah, the first time we met, I'm Umihara Dono."
Dome returned the favor to her.
The girl named Hoshikawa raised her head, and then immediately stopped all movements, and stared blankly at the dome for a long time.
"What a beautiful ......"
Between her soft words, she seemed to know something, but she had never seen it in real time.
This beautiful girl has black hair that is slightly over her shoulders, and she looks quite polite, and she is a girl who is more in line with the impression that outsiders have of Tokiwadai students. Today's Dome has seen a lot of various types of girls, and among them, there are no types that are not too distinctive. But her eyes, which seemed too clear and bright, were very striking. This is the blonde girl she saw in the morning with the cross-shaped pupils, and the other girl she has seen that has impressed her with her eyes.
"Excuse me, have we met?"
Qiong Nai was full of confusion and expressed his incomprehension.
"No, no. That's just the reason for my abilities. My ability is ......"
Hoshikawa didn't shake her head quickly, and her hurried denial was unexpectedly cute.
"Please wait a minute, can we go into the room and talk?"
"Well, of course you can...... Ah, I'm sorry! ”
It seems that sometimes, the girl seems a little off the line.
Although it was normal to enter the room and talk again, when Dome put down his luggage, he felt that it might be the wrong choice.
Because, neither of them is the type who likes to take the initiative to talk to others. So when Dome arranged everything, the two of them found that they didn't know how to talk to each other, and they didn't even know what kind of topic to talk to. This somewhat awkward silence lasted for quite some time.
This scene seems unexpectedly familiar.
"That...... No, can you call it that? ”
After sorting out his thoughts, Dome found a relatively normal beginning. She thought that if she didn't find a way to break the silence, maybe they would sit here for a day and say nothing.
"Of course...... So, can I call you by your name as well? ”
"yes, yes." Dome smiled at her gently, and she realized that such a conversation was still likely to be interrupted, so she continued to try to continue the conversation, "I didn't say it because of your ability. I'm a little curious, what does that mean? Why do you seem to know I've arrived? Could it be the ability to see? Ah, if you don't want to, it's okay not to say it. ”
"No, there's no such thing...... "I blush, actually...... I don't know much about it myself. Certainly not the ability to see through, though. ”
"Is it a complicated concept?"
"It's not too complicated, but it's not easy to explain. In terms of classification, it belongs to the ability of the perceptual system, and the level is LV.3. But it doesn't seem to be the same as the kind of information that you can perceive the situation based on the information you have. "I didn't think about it for a while, and I seemed to be hesitating about how to describe it." To put it simply, I can perceive the state of things or things, and sometimes I can even predict how they will develop or what they will look like in the future. But there seem to be some incomprehensible limitations. If I perceive that something is going to happen, but I can't continue to perceive what will happen after that event happens. Similarly, if I perceive the situation of an object, I cannot expand the scope of my perception and can only limit myself to this object. Any attempt to extend or expand will cause me to lose the information I have perceived. Just now, I sensed that someone was coming, but I didn't know anything else. Actually, this is not a very useful ability...... Hey? (Note: Hoshikawa is actually the girl who reads cards with her ability in the first episode of the electromagnetic cannon animation.) By the way, that test is not a clairvoyance test, but a perceptual ability test. This test is real in reality, and it also extends to many magic performances, and Liu Qian once performed almost exactly the same magic trick. )
Explaining one's abilities has always been a hassle for Weiwei. Not only is it difficult for the individual to describe accurately, but even the researchers find it difficult to understand. But what is not surprising is that the girl in front of her, who is also a woman, is amazed and looks very gentle, but when she listens to her description, she suddenly enters a state of concentrated thinking. She had a peculiar charm in this way, and she didn't look at her intently, not even thinking of calling her.
It's really beautiful, especially when she's thinking about it.
"No, I would venture to ask, if you foresee some kind of future, can you change it when you deliberately try to change it? For example, if you have a premonition that the cup is going to break, can you do something to prevent it from happening? ”
Dome asked suddenly, a little stunned before he began to remember.
"Yes. There have been several times. ”
"I see...... I think I understand what you're capable of. Dome nodded, "Have you considered the event dimension projection of the Hilbert space?" ”
"That's ...... What is it? ”
"That's it, the projection of the multidimensional Hilbert space and the degradation of correlation. Come, I'll draw it for you. Dome took out a piece of paper and drew a multidimensional Hilbert space on it. This is different from real physical space, and dimensions are not length, height, width and anything like that in physics. It is mathematically and represents only one event, one object. For example, one particle contains nothing else. You see, if you just think about this, the dimensions used are low enough to produce projections in other dimensions. Drawing two lines on a plane geometry is bound to produce a projection unless it is a special case of perpendicular. Your perceptual ability should be a projection of perceiving this dimension of events. Ordinary people can't feel it, because the degree of freedom in the natural environment is very large, so it actually plays a role in measurement. However, if more specific measurements are made, they must be brought into a larger system, in fact, more dimensions are introduced, and the probability of projection will become very small due to the increase of the orthogonal probability of the increase of dimensions, which is the loss of coherence caused by the external environment. This limitation is also present for you, and when you try to perceive more, it actually leads to the loss of coherence. As long as you add a few dimensions like this, the vertical probability will increase, and the vertical will not produce a projection. The essence of your ability should be this, and the way to test your ability is mainly to measure the phenomenon caused by ability. But the measurement itself brings in more interactions and introduces more dimensions, so it's easy to ignore the ...... of the past" (Author's note: Originally, the potion was explained directly in mathematical expressions. What vector projections, orthogonal systems, linear subspaces, and so on, the result is a bunch of things. I pinched him and told him to explain it in a way that others could understand, and after listening to him say it several times, I sorted out the above paragraph. It may be less rigorous due to comprehension issues. )
The conversation went on for an hour, until Dome realized that her roommate was clearly not keeping up with her progress and stopped. She found herself a little too messy, and usually she would talk about something like math with someone she met for the first time.
Before she could figure out what was wrong with her, she heard her roommate's timid voice.
"This ...... Isn't your math good? ”
"Ah...... If it's just math and physics, I'm kind of confident......"
"That...... Can you teach me if you can? ”
"Huh? Of course. ”
Did you just overdo it? Is it necessary to be so hesitant to communicate with roommates about schoolwork?
Dome smiled softly. This roommate of mine is really, it's like......
“!”
The smile froze.
What does it seem? This scene is indeed quite familiar.
Unless it's someone close to him, he rarely even has long conversations with others. So in the eyes of others, she is actually a bit introverted. In that case, why would I say so much to Wei now?
It's not that the reason is unknown. That's just because, Wei's personality is a bit like someone he knows. The friend with whom he had long since lost contact.

Brief introduction:
The daughter of a famous family in the gem and jewelry industry. Because there is a brother and sister on it, it is not an heir, the third of the four brothers and sisters. The elder brother is already working hard to inherit the family business, and the elder sister is also a famous jewelry designer working in her own company, so her position is relatively relaxed. She also has a younger brother who is in elementary school.
Shy and timid, easily shy. I don't like noisy sports, and I am keen on quiet sports. It's an astronomical girl who loves starry sky observation.
She is very good at chess, especially Go, but she is banned from any chess tournaments because of her ability (because no one can know if she cheats with her ability pre-reading). In addition to studying, I work as a chess and Go coach – just to gain social experience, of course.
Ability is so rare that in the second grade, someone from the Kirigaoka side came to her to discuss the choice of high school.
He was very good in science, especially in mathematics, which ranked in the top three in Tokiwadai (the first was Dono). Liberal arts are also in the lower position of excellence.
