Someone in Honkai, the Cheat is Bouncing Warehouse Chapter 40

Ren Yu didn't move, his gaze sweeping across the surroundings. He was surprised to find that the students around him didn't react much.

Something felt off.

He had been prepared to be photographed and to be the headline on the St. Freya forum tomorrow.

But the students around him acted as if they hadn't seen Sie crying on him, continuing with their own activities.

Occasionally, a few curious glances were cast, but they mostly skimmed past Ren Yu before looking away again, as if guessing why he was standing foolishly in the rain.

Ren Yu secretly wondered, Could they really not perceive Sie?

Suddenly, he remembered a theory from Quantum Mechanics.

—Uncertainty.

Sie, whose physical body had become a probability cloud, naturally couldn't be observed.

It had already been explained in the Bouncing Warehouse story that for Sie to maintain a physical form, she needed the strong impression of an observer.

And that observer had to pay with their life.

But Ren Yu didn't feel any price. If he had to say, the only things he felt so far were Sie's heartbeat, body temperature, breathing, and the amplitude of her body's tremors.

"It's okay. If others can't perceive you, I'll find a way."

"Since I pulled you out of the Sea of Quantum, I will definitely help you regain your physical body. I promise."

Ren Yu sighed softly, and finally raised his right hand, stroking Sie's head and saying gently.

"Mmm..."

Sie, who was lying on Ren Yu, let out a soft hum. For some reason, her heart also began to beat faster.

Chapter 24: Feeding Play

"Ah—"

"Mmm..."

Dormitory, in the room.

Ren Yu was engaged in feeding play with someone.

Due to her physical body's quantumization, Sie couldn't even hold a spoon, so Ren Yu, as the observer, had to take on the task of feeding her.

And so, the scene became this:

Ren Yu brought the spoon to Sie's mouth. She opened her mouth and took it, swallowed the food inside, then let go, and the cycle repeated...

Although he didn't feel anything, Sie, on the other side, was so embarrassed she felt like she was dying.

She lowered her head like an ostrich, her cheeks puffed out, and her face was flushed, as if she was unaccustomed to such a shameful act.

But she said nothing, silently enduring the feeling of being fed.

Just as Ren Yu completed the transfer operation once more and tried to pull the spoon out, he was surprised to find that he couldn't remove it.

It was as if it had been bitten by someone.

Ren Yu looked up and suddenly met Sie's ruby-like eyes.

He saw her biting the spoon tightly, and she mumbled a few words indistinctly: "Am I fun?"

"..."

Ren Yu froze. He knew that "Sie" had come out.

Clearing his throat, he collected his awkward thoughts and put on a nonchalant expression.

"What do you need?"

"Can't I come out for some air if I have nothing to do?"

"Sie" chuckled softly, spat out the spoon, and teased:

"Why did you stop? Continue. Do you dislike me for disturbing your world for two with Sie?"

As she spoke, a hint of slyness flashed in her eyes, and she pushed her luck further: "Don't forget, Sie and I are the same person. Feeding her is actually feeding me."

"How is it, exciting? Shy?"

"..."

Hearing this, Ren Yu fell silent for a moment before saying with a strange expression, "Honestly, it's quite fun."

He had never fed anyone before, only seeing such scenes in movies and games.

Actually doing it now was indeed a bit novel.

"Sie" scoffed and threw out another sentence:

"You say one thing and mean another."

"..."

"Whatever you say," Ren Yu looked at her, speechless.

"It's no use trying to be kind; you just get rejected. Truly, no good deed goes unpunished."

"Your current state is unlike anything before. After leaving the Quantum State, if you don't eat for a long time, you'll likely die here from energy depletion. As the only observer who can interact with you, I'm reluctantly feeding you."

As he spoke, Ren Yu gestured with the gleaming spoon in his hand.

"Sie" was speechless, feeling both ashamed and annoyed.

Ashamed that she had to accept being fed by someone else.

Annoyed that Sie was warned not to lay a hand on that guy.

Furthermore, everything Ren Yu said was the truth, leaving her no room to argue.

"Sie" could feel that her current form had changed.
