Their Final Situation (Part 2)

　　Apart from the rather chaotic trip to school in the morning, Shinichi's experience at school is also colorful.

　　He really just wants to live a peaceful school life, but for some reason, he just can't calm down around her.

　　For example, after formally relinquishing her duties as secretary, Itsuki now seemed to think of himself as a student, following behind him to euphemistically call him 'coach for life', but was actually no different from the past.

　　Except for the necessary communication and mealtimes with other students, her attention was always on him, and she was always holding a notebook and didn't know what to write or draw, which made him very concerned.

　　So, once when Itsuki put the notebook down on the table to go to the bathroom, Shinichi took the opportunity to peek at it, but its contents made his mood complicated.

　　"Today's Asada-kun's book: Crime and Punishment (original text), Catch-22 (Japanese translation)"

　　"Remarks: If you don't understand the original text, you can borrow the original text from the library to take a look. (English should be strengthened)."

　　"Asada-kun guides Furuhashi-san: Regarding the relationship between the sides and corners of a triangle, the simple notation is..."

　　"Asada-kun didn't say today's famous quote, let's review and record what he said before: 'You can't get the same thing by giving, but in the process of giving, you can definitely get something...'."

　　After Shinichi read it, he was very impressed.

　　He thought Itsuki was a bit of a stalker, and he remembered that it might be some messy stuff, he didn't expect her to be so serious...

　　Really touched by him.

　　After deep introspection, seeing Itsuki returning from the toilet in front of the door, Shinichi pretended that nothing happened, and heard that he forgot to take the notebook and put it away in a panic.

　　And what he didn't realize was—

　　Itsuki glanced at his back guiltily, her face flushed with embarrassment, but he she muttered, "Oops, I wish I hadn't been seen..."

　　Inside her school bag, there were several notebooks with the same appearance but different notes.

　　"This way, there shouldn't be any suspicion..."

　　Itsuki flipped through and took out one of the notebooks titled 'What Happened to Asada-kun-, looked around warily, and quickly wrote a string of words on it.

　　"Asada-kun looks smart and suspicious, but he's actually very simple and easily makes up his own mind. Although I feel sorry for tricking her, but for my reputation and image..."

　　After Itsuki wrote the ending, she put the notebook back in her school bag and hid it, and lay down on the table to begin the self-examination. When Shinichi asked her if she was okay and why her face was red, she wasn't lying, but she wasn't telling the truth either.

　　Then, continue to observe every move of the person in front of her.

　　There was nothing to say about Yotsuba's training with Shinichi as usual in the morning, and her demeanor had not changed since the fake confession.

　　As for Nino, during this week, almost everyone in Class B knew her.

　　On Wednesday, Class A just held a home economics class. After class, Nino immediately rushed to class B, and put the biscuits on Shinichi's table while smiling in front of everyone.

　　"This is specially made for you, freshly baked, you taste."

　　Her voice wasn't loud, but it was clearly audible in the suddenly quiet classroom.

　　Winking playfully at Shinichi, and then smiling at Fumino, Nino shook her waist-length hair and left.

　　Her movements were natural and quick, few people even reacted, so she left the classroom proud and confident.

　　Her friend was waiting for her outside the door, and as soon as she met her, she couldn't wait to ask.

　　"Nino, are you after him?"

　　Nino looked back, raised the corners of her mouth, and hummed a few times.

　　"Saaa~ hard to say~"

　　"Hey, tell us…"

　　"Secret~"

　　After she left, there was a voice in Class B slowly.

　　Under the direct control of a certain president, most of the students looked away as if they didn't see her, and no one whispered, so the atmosphere didn't become awkward.

　　However, Shinichi could still feel that he was faintly the center of attention, and the way many people looked at him had changed.

　　He looked at the packet of biscuits with a pensive expression.

　　Fumino looked from the side, first looked around secretly, and then secretly looked at Itsuki in surprise, after making a certain judgement, she said hesitantly to Shinichi.

　　"Then you... Just eat and see?"

　　Shinichi gave her a strange look, not knowing if he was telling the truth or just baiting others.

　　Ever since that smile in front of the bathroom, Shinichi was no longer sure about Fumino's attitude towards him and since he wasn't sure, he ignored her and didn't think about it.

　　Thinking for a while, put the biscuits into the school bag, and took out a book.

　　Flipping through the book, Shinichi talked around him.

"Now I put this bag of biscuits in my school bag, and when I take it out again, it will enter two different quantum states, either eaten or thrown away.

　　"But if I don't expel it, it will always be in a state of 'eaten' and 'thrown' quantum superposition. You and not even I know whether I will eat it or throw it away. It's just that when I get home and take out the biscuits, can I confirm this change in quantum state..."

　　"This leads to a conundrum - at what point does the quantum superposition end and collapse into one of two possible states?"

　　"This is a very interesting thought experiment, and anyone interested can go back and think about it..."

　　After Shinichi finished speaking, he confirmed that the surroundings were in a state of confusion, and no one cared anymore.

Nino came here to give gifts to Shinichi, looks like she wants to chase after him!

How should he face her?

　　Only Fumino heard that Shinichi was distracting others.

　　After that, Nino frequently visited Class B's room for various reasons.

　　Almost all of the classmates in the class know this overactive beauty, and even when Shinichi isn't around, someone will tell her where he has gone. Even though this kind of person was quickly dragged away by a black man from a certain organization to educate.

　　As for Miku...

　　Other than seeing Shinichi more often in the corridors, and greeting each other when they meet, there's really nothing to say.

　　This routine continued into the weekend, and finally passed the peaceful and lonely morning. Not long after, Shinichi had to welcome visitors.

　　Sitting on the sofa in the living room, while watching the new work by famous author Shinobu Akiyama, Shinichi waited for the doorbell which was expected to ring at 12 noon.

　　At this moment, the rumbling sound disappeared from the kitchen. After the last course was served on the table, his mother wiped her hands, took off her apron, took the coat and bag beside her, and walked out onto the verandah.

　　Shinichi: "???
