buffet.

"Hi, Owen."

"Hi, Mary."

"And Harley and Dumb!"

"You are stupid!"

Angelo stared at Mary with bulging eyes, but unfortunately there was no deterrence.

"Why are there only three of you today?"

Mary simply put down her plate and sat across from Irving: "Where's Arthur?"

"Autistic!"

Owen shook his head and said, "It's caused by a bad relationship! It's gotten worse in the past few days, and he doesn't even come to school."

"so serious?"

Mary was surprised and said: "As for it?"

"Still too young!"

Irving said: "The successive failures have dealt a huge blow to his self-confidence."

"Then what is he doing when he's not at work?"

Mary complained: "Staying in the apartment and complaining?"

"Better than that!"

Harley couldn't help but answered: "Didn't you see the video I uploaded?"

"Do you think I'll read it?"

Mary asked rhetorically.

"That's your loss!"

Harley curled her lips and said, "As long as you click on my Moments and find the video titled How Scientists Die, you will know!"

Mary ignored her and looked at Owen with questioning eyes.

"Arthur plays the cello at home and sings sad songs."

Owen explained: "It's been almost three days, we have nothing to do, and we are ready to use the last resort!"

"A last resort?"

Mary wondered.

"Call the parents!"

Harley interrupted.

"..."

Mary was speechless for a moment. Afterwards, while chatting while eating, she finally fully understood the ins and outs of Arthur's autism.

After lunch, everyone dispersed. Mary returned to the office. With a thought in her heart, she clicked on Harley's circle of friends. Sure enough, she saw the video of Arthur specially recorded by Harley. Looking at the video, she was sometimes melancholy and sometimes screaming at the top of her lungs. It was different from usual times. The completely different Arthur's eyes suddenly lit up.

night.

TBBT Apartments.

Room 4A.

Boom, boom, boom!

Just when Arthur was playing the cello sadly, there was a knock on the door. Arthur went to open the door and when he saw it was Mary, he said with a straight face: "Owen and the others are not here..."

"I know!"

Mary laughed.

Angelo and the others have recently been thinking of various ways to comfort Arthur, but to no avail, so they can only let time heal Arthur's sadness. Before that, they don't want to listen to Arthur playing sad melodies all the time, and usually Party at the bar downstairs.

"Won't you invite me in?"

"Please come in!"

Although Arthur was surprised, he would not refuse.

"I heard that you are currently studying cello playing. Do you mind if I play with the violin?"

Mary put down the violin backpack she was carrying on her back, patted the backpack and smiled.

"I……"

Arthur wanted to refuse, but when he saw Mary taking out the violin without waiting for him to answer, and sitting next to him, making gestures of preparing to play the violin, he had to swallow the words that came to his mouth. He is the kind of person who is not good at refusing. .

"I admire your fingering~"

Arthur put the cello in front of him, and Mary put the violin on his shoulders. The two began to play together. Before finishing the song, Mary, who was watching Arthur while playing the violin, suddenly spoke.

"Thanks."

Arthur said casually.

"Maybe you can play on my violin some time~"

Mary smiled meaningfully.

"..."

Arthur was startled, and quickly looked sideways at Mary, thinking that maybe he was overthinking, so he quickly turned back, but after thinking about it, he still felt that there was something in Mary's words, so he turned his head and looked over again, and what happened next The song made him think deeply.

"One more song?"

Mary laughed.

"OK."

Arthur forced down his distracting thoughts and nodded.

An ensemble begins again.

"It's better to make it clear. You should know that the reason why I came here to play a few songs with you is just a foreshadowing, to let you know that I am a potential unspeakable object!"

Mary said directly while playing the violin.

As soon as these words came out, it was like a bolt from the blue. Arthur was so shocked that he couldn't hold the cello in his hand. After a moment of panic, he looked at Mary in disbelief: "Really?"

"Yeah, I'm available anytime."

Mary smiled generously.

"I thought you weren't interested in me!"

Arthur wondered.

"Yeah, but that's before I see you playing with that elegant piece of wood between your legs~"

Mary teased.

"You mean my cello?"

Arthur's mouth twitched.

"No."

Mary laughed and said, "I meant it in a clearly obscene way!"

Seeing Arthur take a deep breath, Mary said directly: "Yes, I'm making it clear to you!"

"Isn't it?"

The corners of Arthur's mouth curled up. He, who had been so depressed and self-confident before, suddenly became full of life, and a strong joy filled his body.

"No way! Who made me such a passionate and impulsive woman!"

Mary shrugged and smiled: "Come on, how do you feel?"

"Uh, this..."

Arthur suddenly became reserved. He had never encountered such a situation before and couldn't react at all. He didn't know whether he should agree directly or give in half-heartedly.

"Is it because of the waiter?"

Mary would be mistaken.

"Penny?"

Arthur panicked and said, "What happened to her?"

"I noticed that your pupils dilated when you mentioned her, which indicates an indescribable attraction, or an indescribable addiction."

Mary analyzed straightforwardly.

"I did eat a bagel for breakfast that contained an unspeakable element that may have caused..."

"So, you and the waiter?"

Mary interrupted Arthur's words with a half-smile.

"no no!"

Arthur quickly denied: "Penny and I are just friends!"

"very good."

Mary didn't care about Arthur's duplicity and asked: "So, you can establish an indescribable relationship?"

"yeah~"

When Arthur was pressed to this point by Mary, he finally understood that she was serious and raised the corners of his mouth: "I think I can do it~"

"very good!"

Mary laughed.

"is very good."

Arthur also nodded, then reacted and said in surprise: "Do you want to do it now?"

"Have you finished playing this piece together?"

Mary suggested.

"Okay, musical foreplay, great!"

Arthur wholeheartedly agreed.

The two of them pulled up together, but then the tune changed. It became more and more urgent, as if they pressed the accelerator button ten times, so that later, the two looked at each other, their hands were fast and their eyes became fierce...

"I'm ready."

Arthur took the initiative to make his voice heard for the first time.

"Me too."

Mary responded.

The two got up and walked towards Arthur's bedroom...

Half an hour later.

When Angelo came back, he didn't see Arthur playing the cello, but found some clues at Arthur's door. Puzzled, he knocked on Penny's door opposite.

"Hey Angelo, what's up?"

Penny smiled.

"I need help with semiotics!"

Angelo said nonchalantly.

"What?"

Penny, as always, couldn't understand Angelo's words.

"Semiotics, the study of signs and symbols, is a branch of basic linguistic theory."

Angelo explained seriously.

"Dear, I know you think you are explaining yourself, but in fact you really are not!"

Penny complained.

"follow me!"

Angelo had no choice but to take Penny to Arthur's door and pointed to the tie on the doorknob: "That's it. What does it mean?"

"Oh, come on! You've all gone to college, don't you even understand this?"

Penny rolled her eyes.

"Yes! But I was only 8 years old at that time!"

Angelo frowned.

"..."

Penny was speechless for a moment: "Okay, that's it. Hanging a tie on the door handle means that the people inside don't want to be disturbed! Because they are busy..."

"Oh~"

Angelo suddenly realized: "You mean Arthur is in the room with a girl?"

"Or he lost his coat hanger and is really crazy about Bryan Adams!"

Penny joked.

"Oh, Arthur, you are such an amazing beast~"

Mary's voice suddenly came from across the room.

"This is so embarrassing!"

The two left the door and came to the living room.

"Come on! Arthur has brought girls back to spend the night before, right?"

Penny said.

"Didn't you hear?"

Angelo complained: "You don't understand what the beast man means? It's a pun!"

"Oh, oh~!"

Penny didn't hear it at first, but then she suddenly understood and said in surprise: "No way?"

"What can't you do? You should know!"

Angelo wondered.

"I thought you were joking before!"

Penny's eyes widened and she exclaimed.

"We never joke about this!"

Angelo said seriously.

"You can do it!"

Penny gave a thumbs up with both hands, mocked, got up and walked out.

"I now how to do?"

Angelo asked: "Should I stay? Or go out? Or wait for them to come out and hand them a refreshing drink?"

"You asked the wrong person! I don't know either!"

Penny shrugged, "I'm usually on the other side of the tie!"

"..."

Angelo was stunned for a moment, sat in the living room for a while, picked up the phone, dialed Arthur's number, and said seriously: "Hi, Arthur, it's me, Angelo, in the living room, I just want to tell you You, I saw the tie, the message was received!”

After Arthur's roar almost penetrated the door, Angelo was not affected at all, because he did not understand sarcasm, and still said seriously: "You're welcome! Say hello to Mary for me!"

The next day.

Morning.

Arthur woke up, put on his glasses and saw Mary sleeping next to him. He suddenly showed a devilish smile. The struggle before was already a thing of the past.

"What's wrong?"

Arthur's gaze stayed for too long, and Mary noticed it. She opened her eyes and glanced at him, then closed her eyes again and said lazily.

"Thanks!"

Arthur said sincerely.

"Why?"

Mary opened her eyes in surprise. Although she was Lao Si Ji, this was the first time she met someone who thanked her when she woke up!

"Oh, this is a successful lesson I learned from Uncle Leonard!"

Arthur explained sheepishly: "For every girl who is willing to be intimate with you, you must be grateful every time afterward! A thank you is the most basic operation! Furthermore, you must also write a thank-you letter and give a gift! "

"hehe."

Mary heard this interestingly and couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Arthur!!!"

At this moment, Angelo's sharp scream came from outside.

"I'll go take a look first!"

Arthur and Mary confessed, put on their clothes, and came to the living room to see Angelo tremblingly pointing at his whiteboard and shouting: "Someone touched my whiteboard! Changed my formula!"

"you sure?"

Arthur had a headache.

"Of course I'm sure!"

Angelo shouted: "Look at the beta function of quantum chromodynamics above, the sign has been changed!"

"right!"

Arthur looked carefully and found that this was the case, and then comforted him: "Wouldn't that just solve your problem?"

"Are you crazy? Are you stupid?"

Angelo roared at Arthur a few times, then turned around and took a closer look, only to find something unusual: "Hey, look, it really solves my problem!"

"You're welcome!"

At this time, Mary had already dressed and walked out, and said leisurely.

"Did you do it?"

Angelo suddenly became angry and gritted his teeth.

"yes!"

Mary packed her things and said with a smile: "I found it when I got up to drink water last night. I changed it casually. This can prove that quarks are asymptotically free in high-energy states. Isn't it great?"

"Like~?"

Angelo bulged his eyes and drawled.

"Listen, I have to go to work."

Mary ignored Angelo's nose and eyes, patted Arthur on the shoulder, and said manly: "Last night was great, thank you!"

"Thanks?"

Although Arthur was happy, he still felt a little weird: "See you at work!"

"etc!"

Angelo called to Mary.

"What's wrong?"

Mary was puzzled.

"Who told you you could touch my clipboard?"

Angelo questioned.

"no one."

Mary shrugged.

"I won't go to your house and touch your writing board!"

Angelo was unreasonable and unforgiving.

“I don’t have any wrong formulas on my whiteboard!”

Mary said with a smile: "After all, our family is a professional mathematician!"

"Wow~"

Arthur raised the corners of his mouth and turned sideways to see Angelo's expression. He felt so happy!

You know, in the chain of scientific contempt, Angelo has always stood at the top. Except for Owen, there is no one who has not been despised and ridiculed by Angelo!

As Angelo's roommate, Arthur was hit every once in a while. Although he was used to it, it didn't stop him from enjoying seeing others hit Angelo!

It's just that Angelo does have the ability to despise others. Arthur has rarely seen Angelo get hit. Now Angelo is slapped in the face like this by Mary. It's really nice to see Angelo!

"You are so..."

Angelo wanted to speak back, but he was not good at this. He couldn't think of the right words for a long time, and could only get stuck with a twitching expression.

"Thank you, last night can only be regarded as the second happiest thing for me!"

Arthur grumbled as he sent Mary out.

"You're welcome."

Mary is quite romantic in the other side. She came here to take advantage of the excitement and returned home exhausted. She waved her hand in a perfunctory manner, ignored Arthur's enthusiasm, and left in a cool way.
