The sunny boy in Cardcaptor Sakura

Chapter 499: The Insidious Little Bastard

"Xia, what are you doing?"

Seeing Xia Yu suddenly pick up his doll and seem to be talking to it, Qiu Sui tilted her head in confusion. What does it mean to pretend to be a doll? Isn't Xiao Tao a doll?

"This sinister little bastard is not a doll, it's just pretending to be one."

Xia Yu pinched Xiao Tao's body and shook it in front of several people, then poked her head with his fingers, pointing and explaining to everyone.

"It is actually a magical creature. It is the guardian of the book 'Alice in Wonderland'. As for what a guardian is, to put it simply, it is just as the name implies, it is an existence that protects important things..."

Xiaotao: (－＂－)
Feeling someone poking her head while talking and showing no sign of stopping, Xiao Tao became a little angry.

As the saying goes, even a rabbit will bite when it is cornered. Anyway, all the secrets have been exposed, so Xiao Tao did not hesitate at all and opened her mouth wide towards the finger that was poking her head.

I bite!

"hiss--!"

Xia Yu, who was talking excitedly, suddenly took a breath and subconsciously raised his hand and shook it, but unfortunately he failed to shake off Xiao Tao who was biting his finger tightly.

Xia Yu didn't tolerate this little bastard who bit his fingers when he didn't agree with something. He raised his other hand, tightened his middle finger, and then flicked it hard at Xiao Tao's round head.

Snapped!
“It hurts—!!”

After being hit hard on the forehead, Xiao Tao immediately let go, a faint light emanating from her body as she floated in the air. She covered her big head with her carrot-like hands, and glared at an unscrupulous guy with her squinting eyes.

"How dare you treat me like this, you little brat!"

"Tsk, how come you, a little bastard who has turned carrot into spirit, are just like a certain sealed beast and like to bite people like a dog!"

"You're still scolding me!?"

"Who scolded you? Don't slander me casually. I'm just telling the truth."

"hateful!!"

Xiao Tao covered her forehead and gritted her teeth. She immediately wanted to change back to her original form and teach this brat a lesson for daring to flick her forehead.

Don't be fooled by her soft voice, she is not as good-tempered as she looks.

"Xiao Tao... can you actually move?!"

But before Xiaotao could put it into practice, Qiusui's surprised voice was heard.

Looking at Xiaotao floating in the air with a faint glow around her, Qiusui was surprised. She had always thought that Xiaotao was just a doll.

But now this scene shows that Xiao Tao has been pretending to be a doll, but in fact she is alive! ?
"Oh, really, how could things turn out like this..."

Noticing Akiho's surprised gaze, and feeling Sakura's equally surprised gaze, Momo put her hands on her hips and sighed deeply, feeling extremely tired.

I thought I was just accompanying Qiu Sui to a gathering with friends, but who could have thought that such a small gathering would turn out like this? And even its true colors were exposed! ?

But if the child followed his behavior, the moment he was noticed, time would immediately flow backwards and return to the time when nothing happened.

While thinking about it, Xiao Tao waited quietly for a few seconds, but the familiar time reversal did not appear, and time continued to move forward as usual.

Feeling the time passing by, Xiao Tao frowned and looked at Xia Yu, questioning: "Little ghost, did you do something around here? So that Haidu can't see the situation here?"

"What do you mean by 'little ghost'? You little bastard, can you call me that? " Xia Yu snapped his fingers again and sent Xiao Tao flying in the air.

After spinning in the air for several times, Xiao Tao finally stopped, covering her forehead with her hands, and stomped her short carrot legs in the air in frustration.

"You little brat, try hitting me again! I am many years older than you, calling you a brat is actually a compliment to you..."

Snapped!
After another head crash sent Xiao Tao flying, Xia Yu spread his hands and said helplessly to the people looking at him, "You heard it. It asked me to play it again, so I played it. I have never heard of such an outrageous request in my life."

The rest: "..."

Xiaotao: (·▼皿▼)
"You little bastard, I'm going to fight you!!"

Xiao Tao, with a glow all around her, rushed towards Xia Yu with gritted teeth. Even if she couldn't beat him, she would still give this brat a good kick.

This brat is so annoying... no, it’s so annoying to the rabbit!
Unfortunately, before Xiao Tao could kick it, a hand suddenly reached out and picked it up in its arms while it was floating in the air.

"That's great. Xiaotao, you can move and talk. Thank you for staying with me for so long."

Xiao Tao was suddenly hugged by Qiu Sui, and then listened to what Qiu Sui said. She paused and sighed subconsciously.

"Ugh……"

The original angry mood that was provoked by the teasing also dissipated with this sigh. It couldn't help but pat Qiu Sui's hand and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, Qiu Sui, for some reasons, I couldn't expose myself in front of you."

At this point, it couldn't help but glare at Xia Yu and said, "It's all this damned little devil's fault. Hey, how did you find me? I was clearly confident that I could pretend to be a doll."

"Huh? Just you? Don't look down on others, little bastard."

"Damn you brat!"

Seeing that the man and the rabbit were about to quarrel again, Xiaoying quickly interrupted: "Wait a minute, now is not the time to quarrel!" After stopping the quarrel between the two, Xiaoying couldn't help but look at Xia Yu and asked: "Xia classmate, why are you so rude to Xiaotao? Did Xiaotao do something to make you unhappy?"

"Uh... not really."

Xia Yu blinked, thought for a moment and explained, "It's probably because I don't get along with this kind of sinister guy. After all, upright people don't get along with people who like to engage in conspiracies and intrigues."

"Who is plotting this? Don't slander others, little brat!"

"Wow! Really? Then why did you pretend to be a doll next to Akiho? And why did you stay next to Akiho?"

Xia Yu glanced at him sideways. Just based on this point, he was standing on the moral high ground.

What he likes to do most is to stand on the moral high ground and point fingers at the people below him.

“I, this…”

Faced with this question, Xiaotao was speechless for a moment, and its strangeness also made Qiusui reveal a hint of sadness in her eyes, and she murmured subconsciously.

"Xiao Tao, why don't you want to tell me? Aren't we friends?"

"No, Qiusui, don't listen to that brat's nonsense!"

Seeing that Qiu Sui was a little sad, Xiao Tao immediately panicked. It quickly floated away from Qiu Sui's hand, then came to Qiu Sui's head, rubbed her head and spoke.

"I'm sorry, Qiusui, in addition to the contract, my identity is also a restriction. Guardians never favor white or black and must always remain fair. Therefore, there are some things I really can't tell you."

Feeling the sincerity in Xiaotao's words, Qiusui pursed her lips and suddenly asked, "Are we friends then?"

"Akiho..."

Hearing Qiu Sui's expectant question, Xiao Tao paused, but still nodded heavily, and replied with a very cherishing attitude: "We are friends. We have been friends since I came to you."

"As long as we're still friends, it doesn't matter."

Qiu Sui smiled again: "Xiao Tao, you must have your own difficulties. It doesn't matter if you don't tell me. As long as it is true that we are friends, then other things don't matter."

After hearing this, Xiao Tao could not help but remain silent. She rubbed her chubby cheeks and sighed, "Although I cannot tell you the core of the incident, I can still explain some of the minor details."

Anyway, it has been discovered. Given the current situation, it would be unreasonable if it doesn't explain something.

And what Akiho said just now also touched it a little. Guardians never favor white or black and must always remain fair and neutral, but it still likes Akiho very much. If possible, it hopes that Akiho can be happy.

But if there is a better way to make both Akiho and Kaito happy, then it doesn't matter to it even if the forbidden magic it hopes for cannot be activated.

Even though the original condition of the contract between it and Kaito was to let it witness with its own eyes the book it had always been guarding perform forbidden magic.

Thinking of this, Xiaotao left Qiusui's side, flew to the table in front of the sofa, and then crossed her legs with her short carrot legs.

"By the way, do you have any chocolate? I want to eat something delicious so I can be in the mood to explain."

"That little bastard is asking for a lot."

"Don't call me a little bastard. I have a name now. Either call me Xiaotao or don't call me that. Humph!"

Xiao Tao glared at Xia Yu fiercely, then turned to look at the others and asked expectantly, "So are there any chocolates?"

"I have some. Do you want to eat it? Just call me Master Xia Yu and I'll give it to you."

Xia Yu raised his hand to stop Zhishi who was about to ask someone to bring some chocolate, then reached behind him and took out a plate of exquisite chocolate snacks.

After waving the snack in front of Xiao Tao, Xia Yu chuckled and said, "How is it? Do you want to eat it? I dare say this is the most delicious chocolate in the world."

"you……"

Xiao Tao looked over with gritted teeth, smelling the sweet aroma wafting over, and wanted to shout out casually and then taste the delicious chocolate.

But after opening its mouth, it still couldn't shout out. It always felt that if it shouted out, it would seem that something important would be lost.

"Tsk tsk, you're still not sincere. If it was some shameless sealed beast, let alone shouting, you can't even make it kowtow three times and nine times."

"Just a little kid..."

"Um, Lord Xia Yu, can you give the chocolate to Xiaotao?" Qiu Sui on the side suddenly spoke with a slightly blushing face.

"Akiho, you..."

Xiao Tao was immediately moved and looked at him, while Xia Yu shuddered subconsciously, vaguely feeling a black air rising behind him and a pair of eyes staring at him like a thorn in his back.

"Xia Jun, you should know when to stop joking~"

"I'm sorry! I was wrong! Forgive me!"

Without any hesitation, Xia Yu apologized three times smoothly, then quickly placed the chocolate in front of Xiao Tao and sat in his seat properly without looking around.
