Baizhi is a researcher in Remnant Ecoacoustics. Baizhi's once unfulfilled wish has now manifested as her loyal companion. The Remnant Creature You'tan is her source of healing powers, and a lifelong research focus.
Baizhi's worn pair of rings from her time at Huaxu Academy are identical in shape and style, with only slight differences in wear. Their origins are a mystery - some say they're a memento from a deceased family member, others claim Baizhi created them with her former teammates' help, while some speculate they harness Remnant technology to strengthen her bond with You'tan. Despite their simplicity, Baizhi has never offered an explanation for why she cherishes these rings. One thing is certain - they hold great significance for her in summoning You'tan and reinforcing their connection.
Baizhi meticulously studied the behavioral patterns of You'tan and recorded detailed data. But many mysteries still surround this Remnant Creature: What is its composition? How did it come into existence? And are there other similar creatures to be found? Inspired by her colleague's words, Baizhi embarked on a modeling project to recreate You'tan. The result is a complex model consisting of 205 components. It's said that Baizhi can assemble it flawlessly, even with her eyes closed. While not as intricate as the real You'tan, this model serves as a deconstruction and ambitious attempt to replicate the creature from frequencies to a physical form.
Huanglong officials presented this Medal of Honor to the entire team for their contribution to the field of Remnant acoustics and for their courageous research spirit. As the only survivor of the team, Baizhi received the medal on her behalf and has kept it ever since. It is a remembrance and an honor. There are still many uncharted territories in the field of science waiting for explorers like them to enter and make their voices heard, and humans will respond positively to their voices, which is the meaning of their research "Remnant".
When mentioning Baizhi, her colleagues in the Academy would often remark that she seemed cold and difficult to approach. Despite working in the same department, she was rarely seen engaging in casual conversation or joining in on shared frustrations or moments of levity. Instead, they would find her calmly and methodically analyzing data, seemingly lost in her own world of processing logic. She exuded a cool and collected aura, making it difficult for others to connect with her on a personal level. Baizhi's presence brings a quiet stillness, isolating her from the bustling crowd. This reflects her lazer focus and self-discipline in her research. Baizhi's schedule is meticulously planned: Mondays and Wednesdays are reserved for monitoring the artificial Sonoro Sphere, Fridays are dedicated to analyzing Remnant frequency bands, and the rest of her time is spent on field research, observing Remnant biology, and integrating cases. She adjusts her plan as needed, moving forward with precision and purpose. Baizhi remains composed and self-sufficient, unfazed by unfinished work or challenging problems. She diligently studies until she grasps them with ease. This sense of calm makes it hard for others to approach her. With a cold expression and distant tone, she unintentionally creates a feeling of distance. People can't help but imagine themselves being pushed away. "Your report for the previous week was not submitted before its designated deadline." "Ah... Yes... I, uh... The original Remnant samples were contaminated. I had to..." "Uhh, I'm sorry! No, I'm deeply sorry for my negligence! I... I'll make up for..." Seeing Baizhi approaching closer and closer, the reporting researcher nervously clutched his clothes and subconsciously bowed his head even lower. But the next moment, a processed sample slice was handed to him. "I presume samples from a Fission Junrock would suffice?" "But, that's your work..." "You may complete your report before the stasis-evolution. Having anticipated this potential scenario, I have allocated adequate time to mitigate any deviation." "Please inform me ahead of time should any analogous scenarios occur in the future. You were... trembling intensively just now. May I suggest increasing the ambient temperature?" Her pair of emerald eyes finally revealed a pure and unconcealed sense of confusion. The researcher was stunned, then suddenly remembered the other half of the sentence about Baizhi that the other colleagues had added — She seems cold and difficult to approach, but that's just how she seems to be.
