The sunny boy in Cardcaptor Sakura

Chapter 581 Trust
"Okay, I'm fine!"

After being petrified for a few seconds, Xia Yu suddenly regained his composure, stood up energetically, put his hands on his hips and laughed: "Hahaha, it's me as expected!"

Sakura: Σ(д|||)
Seeing that Xia Yu suddenly recovered and laughed heartily, Xiaoying subconsciously took two steps back, looking at a loss.

Could it be that Xia has been hit too hard and is a little out of his mind? ?

She turned her head to look at Li Xiaolang and Tomoyo, conveying her concern with her eyes.

Noticing Xiaoying's eyes, Li Syaoran nodded silently to show that he understood. He took a step forward and came to Xia Yu, secretly gathering strength and tightening his palms.

He had seen relevant cases of sudden unconsciousness. Before he transferred to this school, he had read an ancient Chinese article, which seemed to be a story in "The Scholars", called "Fan Jin Zhongju".

Fan Jin in the story went crazy with joy over the imperial examination and became insane. He was finally slapped in the face by his father-in-law before he came to his senses.

If Xia Yu is really mentally ill, then he doesn't mind being a bad guy and helping him wake up.

There is no selfish motive, it is purely out of concern for friends.

But before Li Xiaolang could make the next move, Xia Yu seemed to have foreseen something and looked directly at Li Xiaolang and asked, "Are you thinking about something bad?"

"Don't talk nonsense about anything bad."

Seeing that Xia Yu's eyes were clear and he showed no signs of unconsciousness, Li Xiaolang put his hands behind his back guiltily. He was just thinking about it and he hadn't done anything yet.

Yes, he hasn't done anything yet, why should he feel guilty!

Li Xiaolang immediately became confident and said, "I was obviously worried about you. Why did you suddenly laugh just now? We thought you were too shocked and unconscious."

"You are out of your mind!"

Xia Yu rolled his eyes at Li Xiaolang and explained, "I just suddenly figured it out. No wonder this maze keeps frustrating me. It turns out that the maze elf is my template."

"so?"

Li Xiaolang was still confused. Even if he knew about this, there was nothing funny about it, right?
"So the one who made me lose face in the end was actually me. This proves that apart from me, no one else can make me look so ugly! Hahahaha——"

"..."

Li Xiaolang's mouth twitched, and he subconsciously asked, "So you laughed because you came to this conclusion?"

"Yes, isn't it?"

Li Xiaolang: (-ι_-｀)
"Okay, very okay."

He had nothing to say.

"Hmph, don't lie to me, I can tell. Do you think I look stupid?"

Xia Yu snorted, and without waiting for Li Xiaolang to answer, he raised his head and said, "But I don't blame you. After all, how can the people of the mortal world understand the thoughts of the chosen one?"

"..."

After so many years, won't this person grow up? Isn't it embarrassing to say this?
Li Xiaolang was speechless and didn't want to continue this topic, so he changed the subject and said, "Since you are fine, then cancel the time pause. Since the card has been obtained, the maze should also disappear."

"Okay, get ready, then I'll continue to restore the flow of time."

Snapped!
Xia Yu, who had recovered his spirit, raised his hand and snapped his fingers. The paused time began to flow, and the weather maze that existed because of the cards also shattered and dissipated like a dream bubble.

Several people who were originally in the maze space appeared in the outside world without any signs under the flashing light.

The air with a slight scent of grass rushed into their nostrils, and the warm sun was hanging high in the sky. Without even looking around, they could clearly tell that they were back at the botanical garden.

"We're back!"

Looking at the familiar scene, Sakura cheered and jumped in place holding her wand, and the others also smiled subconsciously.

Until they caught a glimpse of a tall, dark-skinned figure holding a garbage bag in their peripheral vision.

Taoya: “…”

Xiaoying and others: "..."

For a moment, the air fell into silence, with only Touya and Sakura staring at each other in silence.

“Ah ..., um, well, we…”

Carton's brain suddenly reacted, and Sakura hurriedly tried to hide the wand behind her, but the more she tried to hide it, the more nervous she became and she didn't know what to say.

what to do! ?

My brother must have seen their sudden appearance. What can I do to cover it up?
Her wand was still in her hand, and her clothes were still on her body... No, why was my brother right here? And why did he happen to see this scene?!

Sakura was in a panic and her eyes turned into circles. She just wanted to faint so that she wouldn't have to think about this problem anymore.

It was a pity that he couldn't faint, and Touya wouldn't stare at them in a daze.

"you……"

Touya's eyes became sharp. He walked over with a garbage bag in one hand and a pair of trash tongs in the other, looking quite oppressive.

"Brother! It's not what you think. Let me explain..."

Seeing her brother coming over, Sakura waved her hands in panic and subconsciously looked for help to others.

help me!
Li Xiaolang pursed his lips and was confused for a moment. He had no way to explain.

Tomoyo was helpless and shook her head. Although she wanted to help Sakura, she was just a photographer without any special abilities. She did not have the magical power to solve problems anytime and anywhere.

Xia Yu, on the other hand, gave Xiaoying a reassuring look, and in response to Xiaoying's expectation, he said bluntly: "Xiaoying, don't panic, just delete this part of your brother's memory."

"If you can't do it, let me do it. Don't worry about me. I can definitely do it!"

As he spoke, Xia Yu looked at Touya who was approaching, and swung out his magic wand eagerly. Could his "Oblivion" spell finally be unveiled?
"No, that's my brother!"

Hearing Xia Yu's simple and crude solution, Xiaoying became even more panicked and quickly suppressed the possibility of "Oblivion" appearing.

"What are you going to do?"

Seeing that Xiaoying didn't allow it, Xia Yu put away his wand without interest and continued, "It's obvious that it can't be concealed anymore. How are you going to explain it to your brother?"

"me……"

Upon hearing this, Sakura stammered and wanted to give an answer, but she didn't know how to explain it. The words were stuck in her throat and she didn't know how to say it.

"That's enough, you guys. I'm still here. Stop pretending I don't exist, okay?"

Touya, who had already come to the side of several people, had a faint " " on his forehead. He was still here, but they were actually discussing how to deal with him. This was too much of a disregard for him.

Especially this monster...

Touya looked at Sakura with unfriendly eyes. Although Sakura had just refused to change his memory, which made him feel a little relieved, the fact that Sakura was still trying to hide his memory in a panic still made him a little unhappy.

He saw it all with his own eyes, but she was still thinking of excuses to hide it from him. Did she think he was a fool?
"elder brother……"

Seeing that Touya had come to her side and said this directly, Sakura came to Touya weakly with her head down, like a child who had done something wrong. Facing the timid Sakura, Touya lowered his eyes and suddenly reached out his hand.

The next second, Sakura felt her head sink and she felt a big, broad hand stroking her head.

"I won't blame you, why are you so scared of me?"

Feeling the rare tenderness from her brother, Sakura's heart warmed. She looked up and saw her brother's disdainful gaze.

"Besides, I already knew that you would encounter such a strange thing when you were in the fourth grade of elementary school. Do you think you hid it well?"

“Ugh—!!”

Hearing this, Sakura screamed in surprise and looked at Touya in disbelief.

Touya clicked his tongue and shook his head, saying with even more disdain, "You're so stupid, I really don't know how you managed to get out of all those weird things. Should I say, you're worthy of being a monster, right?"

"Sakura is not a monster!"

Just one sentence instantly aroused Sakura's anger. Looking at Toya's disgusted expression, she raised her foot and stomped on him hard.

But Touya seemed to have predicted that Sakura would use this move. He stepped back and successfully dodged Sakura's attack.

After dodging Sakura's attack, Touya smiled, turned his back to the others, waved and said, "I still have to continue cleaning up the botanical garden. I won't play with you anymore. I'm leaving."

Looking at Touya leaving in such a leisurely manner, Sakura was stunned for a moment, but she still shouted loudly before Touya went far away.

"Brother, if you already knew it, why did you pretend you didn't know?"

Toya did not turn around to hear this, but his voice could be heard from afar, with a sense of ease and carefreeness.

"Because I believe you will be absolutely fine!"

"..."

The unexpected but reasonable answer left Xiaoying speechless. After a few seconds, the corners of her mouth slightly raised. She couldn't help but hold her chest and whispered softly: "Brother..."

At this warm moment, bubbles with soft light suddenly emerged from the place where Touya left.

The bubbles floated and came in front of Sakura. Looking at the soft bubbles that suddenly appeared in front of her, Sakura opened her mouth in surprise.

Nothing unusual happened, but Sakura seemed to have understood something. She stretched out the wand in her hand and pointed it at the soft bubbles that suddenly appeared.

"Card acquisition."

Crackling——!
Countless crystals spread out and turned into sealing crystals that wrapped the bubble. When the sealing crystals shattered, a card emitting a faint blue glow slowly fell down and was caught by Sakura.

The top of the card has the artistic Chinese character "Trust" written on it, and the English word "BELIEVE" is written at the bottom. In the center of the card is a male elf wearing a robe and holding a magic sword. The elf has a firm and trusting look in his eyes, as if he wants to protect something or someone.

"Is it another new card?" Chishi asked curiously when he saw this scene.

"Ah."

Sakura turned around and showed the card to everyone, smiling: "This is a... very, very gentle card."

Sakura didn't need to explain. Just by looking at the male elf in the center of the card who was very similar to Touya Kinomoto, everyone could understand what she meant.

This card is indeed a gentle card.

"Speaking of which, Sakura, have you forgotten something?"

Just as the atmosphere was gradually turning towards gentleness, Xia Yu suddenly touched his chin and spoke.

"what?"

Sakura, who was originally smiling gently, looked at her in confusion when she heard this. Did she forget something?

"Um……"

Xia Yu paused for a moment, glanced at the top of Xiaoying's head, and then said in a faint voice: "Do you remember whether your brother took off his gloves when he rubbed your head?"

"what?"

"Anyway, from what I remember, he didn't seem to take off his gloves, and he just reached out and rubbed your head. But don't forget, he wore gloves to pick up trash, which means he just used the hands he used to pick up trash..."

Although he didn't finish his words, others already understood what he meant.

"..."

Silence spread again.

……

"That's why my brother is the most annoying. He didn't even take off his gloves and rubbed my head with his garbage-picking hands. It's so abominable!"

Kinomoto family, Sakura's room.

Sakura hurriedly washed her hair as soon as she got home, and stayed in her bedroom, blowing her hair with a hair dryer while muttering to herself and condemning her unreliable brother.

After being reminded by Xia Yu, she immediately ended her date with Xiaolang in embarrassment and hurried back home to wash her hair.

When she thought that there might be something dirty left on her head, she couldn't calm down and continue her date with the little wolf.

What's more, they were all a little tired after going through the weather maze, so not long after obtaining the trust card, they said goodbye and left the botanical garden.

Listening to Sakura's mumbling, Xiao Ke crossed his arms and noticed another thing.

"So, your brother actually knew exactly what you were doing from the moment you became a Clow Magician in the fourth grade of elementary school?"

"Well, that's what my brother said anyway. He knew I've been experiencing strange things since I was in fourth grade."

As she spoke, Sakura couldn't help but sigh: "In this way, Dad is the only one in our family who doesn't know anything. Do you think I should also explain everything to Dad?"

"Don't rush this yet."

Xiao Ke shook her head and couldn't help but said depressedly: "That means my brother already knew that I'm not a doll? Then why didn't he take the initiative to talk to me?"

"This one……"

After being reminded by Xiaoke, Xiaoying immediately reacted.

Yes, if the brother really knew everything, then why didn’t the brother expose Xiaoke when she was pretending to be a doll, and still treated Xiaoke as a doll?
Did the elder brother really not notice Xiao Ke? Or did the elder brother actually notice Xiao Ke a long time ago, but was just too lazy to pay attention to her?

Doubts emerged in the hearts of the man and the beast. After a few seconds, Xiao Ke clenched his fist and shouted, "Okay! It's decided. Let's go confess to my brother and father."

"Huh? Why are you confessing all of a sudden?"

Sakura was startled, while Xiao Ke put her hands on her hips and laughed, "Because as long as people know I exist, I can sit at the table when we eat in the future, hahahaha!"

"Xiao Ke, you really are always thinking about eating..."
