The sunny boy in Cardcaptor Sakura

Chapter 461 History is always surprisingly similar

"Through!"

With the use of magic, the rotating transparent card instantly turned into several brilliant streams of light, and then converged into a tiny point of light.

As the light flickered, a bright red curtain appeared out of thin air and spun into a huge cloak. The edges of the cloak flickered, as if sprinkling bits of light.

The materialized cloak carrying the glow of stardust fluttered down, covering the people who were leaning against the wall.

The next moment, the beam of a flashlight shone over.

However, the beam of light shone left and right, but saw nothing, and there was no place to hide in the dark corridor.

"Strange, I clearly heard voices talking here..."

The security guard with a flashlight walked through the corridor muttering, his tone full of confusion, and he also felt inexplicably cold.

However, all the windows inside the aquarium have been closed, and there will be no sudden evening breeze blowing in. This is probably just a psychological effect.

"Wait, could it be..."

As if he had thought of something terrible, the security guard who was originally planning to patrol again couldn't help but shudder and left the place quickly.

Never mind. He has already patrolled once, so there shouldn't be any more problems. Let's hurry back to the duty room. This dark and chilly corridor makes people feel uneasy for some reason.

After the security guard walked away, Sakura secretly poked her head out from under the cloak. After making sure that he would not return, she turned the cloak back into a transparent card and put it back.

Looking at the transparent card in her hand, Xiaoying subconsciously patted her chest and said, "Luckily I have this card, otherwise I would have been discovered."

"What you're saying, isn't it that I'm still here?"

Xia Yu, who was standing by, couldn't help but turn his head and remind him, "Don't forget how we sneaked into the reservoir when we got the water card."

"Yes."

Hearing this, Sakura suddenly realized something and her past memories resurfaced in her mind.

Although it was daytime when the water card was captured and it is night now, there is no change in avoiding patrol officers.

At that time, Li Xiaolang had not yet transferred to the school. In order to investigate what happened with the water sign, the three of them also sneaked into the reservoir of the aquarium.

At that time, she did not have the means to become invisible, and it was with the help of Xia Yu's spell that they were able to disappear and avoid the staff inside.

Thinking back to how sneaky she was back then, and feeling how sneaky she was now, Sakura couldn't help but chuckle with her fist against her mouth.

"It's a familiar feeling, but I still needed the help of Xia at that time. Now I have this card and can turn myself invisible."

Hearing this, Xia Yu also chuckled and said, "Yes, congratulations, Xiaoying, you also have your own invisibility cloak."

"Hehe~ Invisibility cloak."

The corners of Sakura's mouth lifted up involuntarily, and she couldn't hide the happiness in her heart.

When she became invisible, she asked classmate Xia if he had an invisibility cloak, but unfortunately she got the answer that he didn't have one. Unexpectedly, now that time has come, she has a similar card.

She finally experienced the invisibility cloak in fantasy works.

"Let's go in quickly while the security guard is away."

Li Xiaolang looked at the place where the security guard left and reminded him that the security guard usually patrols more than once, so it would be best to resolve the matter before he comes back.

"Yes, let's go in."

Tomoyo also raised the camera and said with a smile, "This kind of sneaking around to investigate cards really makes people nostalgic."

Especially this time, the place they dived into was an aquarium, which gave her a feeling of revisiting an old place.

It’s just that Xia Yu rarely says those second-year words now, which makes her feel a little bit regretful. When he was capturing the Clow Cards, he used to say some cool words.

After dodging the patrolling security guards, the few of them chatted for a few minutes and then sneaked into the aquarium's reservoir again.

Soon, the four people and one beast arrived at the core area of ​​the aquarium.

Several years have passed, and the core reservoir of the aquarium is still the same, consisting of more than a dozen large pools connected to the aquariums below, and these pools are still wide open without any lids to cover them.

Familiar place, familiar scene, except that there were two more people on this trip, Li Xiaolang and Xiaoke.

Looking at the still-open entrance to the pool, Xia Yu curiously poked his head out and asked, "This familiar scene... Next, do I need to attract the weird things out like I did before? Just like attracting the water signs?"

"This one……"

Sakura and Tomoyo looked at each other and made way. Although Li Syaoran and Xiaoke didn't know what Xia Yu did when he subdued the water card, when they saw what Sakura and Tomoyo did, they also took a step back.

Seeing Xiaoying and the others give up their seats, Xia Yu coughed twice, walked forward and stood by the pool, just like he had done before, and leaned his head into the pool and yelled.

"Hey, if you have the ability to create a whirlpool, then come out! Don't hide in there and keep silent. I know you are in there!"

As soon as the words fell, strange noises suddenly came from the originally calm pool. Noticing the noise, Sakura hurriedly stepped forward and pointed her wand above the pool.

"It's coming, Xia classmate, please step back."

"Okay~"

Xia Yu waved his hand and jumped back, giving his seat to Xiaoying again. The Xiaoying now was no longer the Xiaoying when he first met Shuipai, so he naturally had no need to worry.

After a few seconds, the movement inside the pool became louder and louder, and ripples appeared on the water surface.

The next moment, a whirlpool suddenly appeared on the surface of the pool, followed by a waterspout rising into the sky, which was extremely similar to the scene when the water sign appeared, or even exactly the same.

Although history always repeats itself in an alarming way, when the waterspout explodes, what appears inside is not the familiar mermaid, but an abstract object similar to the DNA double helix.

"Not... water?"

Sakura was stunned for a moment as she looked at the abstract object that exploded from the water tornado.

The familiar experience and the familiar scene made her subconsciously think that the next card to appear would also be a card similar to the water card, but it turned out to be a card that she couldn't understand.

But apart from the different appearance, the temperament of the abstract object is almost the same as that of the water card. Seeing the people in front of it, the abstract object with a double helix structure attacked directly downwards.

“It’s exactly the same.”

Watching the abstract creature's direct and unethical attack, Xia Yu took a step forward and was about to smash it to pieces, but the abstract creature, perhaps sensing the danger, bypassed him and rushed towards Sakura.

"Whoa!"

Suddenly being targeted, Sakura quickly ran towards the exit, and the abstract creature followed her around the corner.

"Sakura!"

"Follow me!"

Xiaoke exclaimed, and Li Xiaolang chased after him without thinking.

Looking at the people chasing after him, Xia Yu put his hands down, not knowing what expression to make. Xiaoying was so strong, why was her first thought when she was attacked still to run away?
Even though Sakura cards cannot be used now and only transparent cards can be used, there are still many attack cards in the transparent cards, such as Gale and Water.

Even if you don't want to attack, you can use reflection and gravity to stop it, or as a defense.

Even if he really wanted to escape, why did he use his legs to escape? Didn't he capture the Flying Card before? Wouldn't it be faster to fly?
Xia Yu was speechless for a few seconds, full of doubts, and sighed softly, forget it, even if Xiaoying has grown up, she is still just a junior high school student after all. It's better not to be so strict.

"Then let's chase after them, Tomoyo."

Looking at Li Xiaolang, whose back was now only visible, Xia Yu turned and said something to Zhishi, but Zhishi did not nod in response. Instead, he suddenly approached him.

"Ahem, Xia-kun, do you remember the time when you captured the Clow Cards?"

"before?"

Looking at Chiyo who suddenly came close to him, Xia Yu tilted his head: "Isn't it the same when we captured the Clow Cards before? What's wrong?"

"..."

"..."

When their eyes met, Zhishi couldn't help feeling a little ashamed and angry when he saw that Xia Yu hadn't reacted yet.

It was obvious that when they had just met, this man had been hugging her without any scruples, so why was he being so slow now?

"Are we just going to run over there like this?" Zhishi reminded him meaningfully.

"Otherwise?"

Xia Yu raised his eyebrows in confusion and turned to look at the exit that had already disappeared: "If I don't catch up quickly, I might not be able to take a video."

"..."

Looking at Xia Yu who looked as if he really didn't understand, Zhishi pursed her lips. She always felt that Xia Yu actually understood and was just waiting for her to speak in person.

Bad intentions!
After mumbling something in his mind, Zhishi whispered, "Hold me."

"what?"

"..."

Zhishi suppressed the shame in his heart, stared at Xia Yu and shouted: "Hold me!"

"Just hug me, why are you making such a loud noise?"

Xia Yu whispered something, and while Zhishi wasn't getting angry yet, he quickly reached out and picked him up like a princess, then lowered his head and smiled.

"Hold on."

"Um……"

Zhishi leaned on Xia Yu's chest, feeling the familiar sense of security, and nodded with a slightly blushing face.

The next second, Xia Yu spread his wings behind him and disappeared on the spot with a flap of his wings.

Meanwhile, on the other side.

Sakura, who was being chased by the abstract object, ran all the way to the exhibition hall outside the reservoir. However, before she could escape further, the abstract object chasing her from behind suddenly split and turned into two spirals.

Seeing that the front and back were blocked by the spiral, Sakura quickly took out the gravity card and moved forward.

"gravitational!"

In an instant, a light blue light emerged from the card, and several streams of light converged on the wall in front, forming a gravitational point directly on the wall.

With the gravitational point as a distraction, Sakura jumped lightly and landed on the wall in front of her, and found a way to escape again.

"…So, Sakura used the gravity card as a jump card?"

Above the exhibition hall, Xia Yu was flying in the air with Tomoyo in his arms, looking at Sakura who was running around, his expression became even stranger.

Gravity is one of the four fundamental forces in the universe, but Sakura has only developed this one use for it. He feels that gravity is not worth it.

Even if it is just to use gravity to form an all-round repulsive force, it is good to restrict the abstract object in place. Why should the gravity card be used as a jump card?

After all, in any object, gravity and repulsion exist at the same time. It is impossible for one force to disappear. Being able to control gravity means being able to control repulsion as well.

"We are still just middle school students, Xia Jun."

As if hearing the deep confusion in Xia Yu's tone, Zhishi raised the camera and reminded him.

"Tsk, that's true. I just started learning physics in junior high school."

Xia Yu let out a light sigh and realized that he was being too picky. Xiaoying had just been introduced to physics, so it was impossible for her to understand the true use of gravity so quickly.

But in fact, he didn't quite understand it. After all, gravity in the universe has always been one of the hot topics explored by scientists.

At most, he could only develop some simple uses, such as changing gravity or repulsion, or compressing matter to create a black hole.

As for using gravity to slow down time, or even directly pause time, he can't do it for the time being.

This really proves the saying that knowledge is power.

At the same time, Sakura, who was using the gravity card as a jumping card below, finally reacted after running for a long time and realized that she could still fly.

Sakura, who fell into the air, waved her hand to take back the gravity card, then took out the flight card with her backhand, threw it forward, and then used the magic wand to point it.

"fly!"

The light shone brightly, and the transparent wings spread out, then gathered at Sakura's lower back and tied into a translucent bow.

As the bow-shaped flying object appeared, the chased Sakura flew up into the air, and then flew around the glass display column in the center of the aquarium in a series of circles to escape.

Behind her, the two spirals merged into one and continued to chase.

However, because the bow had self-awareness and Sakura had flown a lot, she was able to control it quite flexibly and skillfully, and with a single swing of her body she shook off the spiral that was chasing her from behind.

The pursuing spiral couldn't stop and broke through the glass of the ceiling. It stopped again and turned around to chase after Sakura.

Sakura took this opportunity to fly out through the hole in the ceiling. If she continued to stay in the aquarium, the aquarium might continue to be destroyed.

This was something she didn't want to see. If possible, she just wanted to fight Spiral one-on-one.

Just when Sakura flew out, Li Syaoran and Xiaoke, who were running behind, finally arrived here. Looking at Sakura who flew out, Li Syaoran hurriedly reminded her.

"They're out, let's go outside."

"it is good!"

On the other side of the exhibition hall, Xia Yu watched Xiaoying flying out, and flapped his wings to follow through the hole.

Outside the aquarium, Sakura, who had lured Spiral out, looked at the attack coming from behind. This time she did not run away, but instead threw out the Gale Card.

"blast!"

Swish swish--!
In a moment, countless wind blades slashed out, cutting the flying spiral into pieces.

But the fragments spun around in the sky and reassembled into a spiral. Seeing that the attack didn't work, Sakura exclaimed and turned around to escape.
