The sunny boy in Cardcaptor Sakura

Chapter 656 Extra: Dimensional World
Lunch break, on the lawn.

Sakura and the other three got together, eating lunch and chatting as they always did.

After lunch, they did not go back to the classroom immediately. Instead, they took advantage of the long lunch break to sit on the lawn, basking in the sun and chatting casually.

"Xia, you are still as amazing as ever."

Thinking back to what happened this morning, Sakura couldn't help but sigh: "I didn't expect that even though you're in high school, your introduction is still so unique."

The self-introductions in elementary school, junior high school, and even high school were all full of personal characteristics. She felt that even in college, Classmate Xia would still introduce himself in this way.

Xia Yu snorted twice when he heard this: "That's right, I am who I am, and my knowledge and actions are one. This will never change because of time or environment."

After saying that, he took out a gift box from behind and handed it to Sakura: "Happy birthday, Sakura, congratulations on growing another year older."

"Thank you~"

Seeing the gift handed to her by Xia Yu, Xiaoying smiled, took the gift and said thank you crisply.

Tomoyo also took her schoolbag, took out her gift and handed it to Sakura: "Happy birthday, Sakura~"

"Thank you, Chiyo~"

After putting the birthday presents given to her by Xia Yu and Chi Shi into her schoolbag, Sakura suddenly spoke while holding her schoolbag.

"Come to think of it, I had another peculiar dream when I was sleeping last night."

"Are you having another special dream?"

Upon hearing this, Li Xiaolang quickly turned his head, looking a little nervous, which made Xiaoying burst out laughing: "Xiaolang, you don't have to be so nervous, it's not a dangerous premonition dream."

“Um, I’m sorry…”

Li Xiaolang looked a little embarrassed for a moment, mainly because Xia Yu's remarks this morning had made him a little stressed out, and he was afraid that this rare peace would be broken again.

But since it’s not a precognitive dream, it shouldn’t be a big problem…right?

After a pause, he couldn't help but ask, "So what was the dream? Is something going to happen again?"

"How to describe it?"

Sakura pointed her index finger at her chin, and said as she recalled, "In the dream, I and myself in another world... No, we met."

"She seemed to be facing some difficulties and needed help, so I gave her my Star Wand, hoping that the wand could help her overcome the difficulties."

"You in another world? A parallel world... No, should I say you in another dimension?"

Although he was talking about Sakura, Li Syaoran subconsciously looked at Xia Yu. After all, the other party had just told him about the dimensional world this morning.

As a result, at noon, Sakura mentioned herself in another world. It was such a coincidence that it was hard not to wonder if there was any connection between the two things.

But this time Li Xiaolang guessed wrong, because Xia Yu was also stunned. He subconsciously looked at Xiaoying and asked, "Another you? Are you sure?"

While asking, all kinds of doubts could not help but arise in his mind.

Did Sakura and Princess Sakura meet? Why did they meet? Is there such a plot in the original manga of Cardcaptor Sakura?
Wait, he seemed to have some impression that this seemed to be the plot in the original comic of Tsubasa Chronicle, but what was the specific situation?

Tsk...it was too long ago, I can't remember clearly.

Xia Yu couldn't help but pat his head, trying to make his brain remember the forgotten memory.

On the other side, Xiaoying nodded to Xia Yu's question and said affirmatively: "I am sure, because my dream merged with hers, so I realized that our essences are exactly the same."

"But the other me looks more mature, taller than me, and dressed classically."

After hearing Xiaoying's answer, Xia Yu frowned slightly, still unable to remember any details. As a last resort, he had to ask for help from another plug-in of his.

【Cardcaptor Sakura Magic Card】：Who has the complete set of Tsubasa Chronicle comics? Send it to me, I need to confirm some details.

[Talos's Principle]: The relevant memory retrieval integration is placed in the red envelope, go and claim it yourself.

[Cardcaptor Sakura Magic Card]: Okay, thank you brother!
[NieR: Automata]: Wait, are you going to change the tragedy of the Tsubasa Chronicles?

[Cardcaptor Sakura Magic Card]: Yes, now that we have joined the group and gained the power to change the truth, then naturally we have to change that tragedy.

[NieR: Automata]: As expected of me, remember to start the live broadcast.

[Sekiro]: Add one. If you can’t beat them, remember to call for help.

[Cardcaptor Sakura Magic Card]: Got it. Also, I still want to say that you guys really have a lot of free time.

After replying to the message and receiving the memory red envelope, Xia Yu's pupils dilated slightly, and his mental power swept through the acquired memories. In an instant, he learned the complete plot of the original comic of the Wing Chronicle.

"I see……"

Mumbling, Xia Yu suddenly looked at Xiaoying and smiled: "Xiaoying, do you want to meet the other you in your dream? By the way, the other you is already married and has children."

“Ugh!!?”

"what?"

"Sakura has a baby?"

The sudden statement startled everyone at the scene and they all looked at Xia Yu. Xiaoying even said in a lost voice: "The other me is married and has children!?"

"Yes, and the person you are going to marry is also Xiaolang. As for your child..."

Xia Yu stopped talking because the situation was a bit confusing and he couldn't explain it clearly for a while.

To put it simply, the child of Sakura and Syaoran is still Li Syaoran.

That’s right, Li Xiaolang in that world successfully achieved the achievement that I gave birth to myself.

Although it seems a bit outrageous, after re-reading the comics, he can only say that this is the fact.

Of course, the real situation is definitely not that chaotic, but it is not that simple either. So instead of asking him to explain it, it is better to understand it yourself.

"What happened to that kid?"

Seeing Xia Yu speaking halfway like a riddle man, Xiaoying couldn't help but get nervous and worried.

"I can't explain it clearly for the time being. How about we go to that world together and ask the other you in person?"

"I……"

Sakura was stunned and felt a little embarrassed.

Li Xiaolang couldn't help but ask: "How do you know about Sakura's situation in the other world?"

"How should I know..."

Xia Yu repeated, and laughed: "Anyway, you will understand when you get to that world. I will show you the whole story at that time. As for now...please forgive me for keeping it secret for now, hehe~"

"But there is one thing I can tell you. Sakura and Syaoran in the other world are not as happy and complete as you are now. They...tsk tsk."

"..."

Xia Yu clicked his tongue and shook his head. Li Xiaolang remained silent. After taking a deep breath, he looked at Xiaoying and asked, "Xiaoying, what do you think? I think we can go over and take a look."

"This one……"

Sakura hesitated for a few seconds, then asked, "If we go to another world, what should we do with this world? It's still class time now, and our sudden disappearance will cause chaos, right?"

"Don't worry about that. As long as we come back at the same time as we left, there's no need to worry about time confusion."

Xia Yu recalled his other research on parallel world travel in his memory and explained: "If the world is likened to a movie, it is equivalent to taking out the frame we exist in now and inserting it into another roll of the movie."

"The other roll of film is another world, and that world continues to play the film, which means it keeps moving forward. When everything is over, we will take out the frame we were in the other world and insert it back into this world."

"The frame that was taken away is reinserted, which is equivalent to no change at all, so there is no need to worry about whether others will notice that we have disappeared. They may not even notice that we have left."

After saying this, Xia Yu seemed to have thought of something and quickly added: "By the way, the theory just now was just a description. The real situation must be more complicated than this, and only I can do that kind of operation. No one else can do it."

After all, this method of traveling through the worlds relies on a parallel world crossing device, and the crossing device is the result of his research in Neil's world.

Furthermore, the time-travel device is purely a technological creation, which is different from magical time-travel. Therefore, he specifically emphasized that only he can do this method of time-travel.

Xiaoying nodded confusedly in response to Xia Yu's explanation. She actually didn't understand much.

But one thing is clear, that is, if they leave now, they can come back the next second without worrying about being discovered by others.

In that case, there is nothing to worry about.

"I have decided to go meet my parallel world self. I'll trouble you, Xia."

"Hehe~Okay, I've been waiting for you to say this."

Xia Yu grinned, and under the curious gaze of the other three, he suddenly took out a white suitcase out of thin air.

The suitcase looks ordinary, but when it is opened, it reveals an extremely complex mechanical panel that is dazzling to the eyes.

"what is this?"

Li Xiaolang looked at the high-tech suitcase in astonishment. He thought Xia Yu would use magic to take them across the world, but what the hell was this high-tech suitcase?

"Of course it's a parallel world crossing device. You don't think I can cross the world with magic, do you? Although I can use magic, it's not as convenient as this device."

While explaining, Xia Yu debugged according to the operating instructions in his memory. In a short while, he searched for the parallel world node closest to this world.

Without randomly selecting those nodes, he waved to Sakura and said, "Sakura, come here and put your hand here."

Since Sakura has established a connection with her other self, she can use this connection as a guide to locate herself directly there.

There is no need to select a specific time. If there is no specific time set, the device will automatically locate the crossing node to the moment when the time is the same as theirs. "Oh."

Looking at Xia Yu operating something in an unclear manner, Xiaoying quickly nodded and leaned over, placing her hand where Xia Yu was pointing.

As the indicator light on the device flickered, a milky white light flashed, and the four figures present suddenly disappeared without any signs or anyone noticing.

……

A certain dimensional world.

In an ancient pavilion with a classical style, flower petals were flying all over the sky and lightly fell into the surface of the pool beside it, causing ripples.

Inside the ancient pavilion, there stood a woman with brows as furrowed as spring mountains, eyes as bright as autumn water, a thin face, a slender waist, and a graceful figure. There was a hint of sadness between her brows, as if she was worried about something.

"Good morning, mother!"

Suddenly, a greeting broke the picturesque scene, and a young man in training clothes and a long belt around his waist strode towards the girl.

The woman also turned her head to look at the boy, hiding the sadness between her brows, and smiled, "Good morning."

She then half-knelt down, raised her head and looked at the boy and said, "You got up earlier today than before."

"Because my father has returned from work, he said that he will teach me many things from today, such as fighting techniques and other techniques."

Hearing the boy's energetic and expectant answer, the woman smiled and said, "That's great."

After she finished speaking, she reached out and embraced the boy. Feeling his mother's embrace, the boy couldn't help but say, "Your body hasn't recovered yet, okay? Why don't you go back to the house and rest..."

"No, it's nothing. I'm fine."

The woman shook her head gently and said sincerely: "I was just thinking that I am really happy to have you as my child."

After saying that, she raised her head and looked forward, looking at the boy's father, the man she loved most in her life.

The moment the two looked at each other, the man frowned slightly, and the woman put away her smile, and a hint of sadness reappeared between her brows.

The two looked at each other in silence, as if they were talking to each other silently. The next second, the woman let the boy go from her arms and said softly, "It's time for breakfast. I'm going to pick some herbs for tea. Can you go over first?"

"it is good!"

The boy nodded happily and turned to look behind him. He also felt his father appear behind him.

"Father, thank you for teaching me how to practice. Can we continue tomorrow?"

"sure."

The man smiled and nodded. Seeing this, the boy ran towards the house excitedly and couldn't help but shouted: "Great, let's continue tomorrow morning."

The woman and the man who stood up looked at the running boy together, and subconsciously smiled at the corners of their mouths, but only for a moment, and the man frowned slightly again.

"Tomorrow... I don't know if I will have the chance to practice with that kid tomorrow..."

Noticing her lover's worry, the woman also frowned and lowered her head, but still said: "I had a dream..."

"Did... you dream about what is going to happen next?" The man held the woman's hand and couldn't help asking.

"Um……"

The woman's eyes were blank, as if she was looking at something that was about to happen in the future, and as if she was looking at her lover beside her through that future.

"Your prototype is a little wolf. Logically speaking, he couldn't have been born as your son."

"From what we have experienced in the past, this child will grow up slowly, then travel through dimensions to Jiulou Country, meet his Princess Sakura, then he will be imprisoned, and then you and I will be created, and so on..."

"In this way, the same thing will happen again and again, like a closed circle." The man subconsciously took over the woman's words.

The woman nodded slightly and continued, "However, I saw in my dream a moment that did not exist in the time we experienced."

"Is that the exit of the closed circle?"

"Yes, that's what I saw in my dream."

The woman recalled the scene she saw in her dream, and continued, "But after escaping from the circle, what awaits this child will be separation from his princess, and they will never see each other again, no matter how long he waits for the right opportunity, or which world he travels to."

Hearing the final ending, the man couldn't help but ask, "No way? Is this the ending? After such a difficult journey, why is the child waiting for separation?"

"Whether it's our son or my other self, I don't want them to experience the pain of separation." The woman looked at her lover, as if she didn't want the separation ending in her dream.

Faced with the words of the person he loved, the man suddenly asked: "The people you saw in your dream were indeed Syaoran and Sakura, right?"

"Um……"

After receiving this affirmative answer, the man said in a deep voice: "Then if we replace them at that moment with us, it won't affect the future, right? Because we..."

"It's Syaoran and Sakura too." ×2
The unanimous answer made the two of them fall silent. After a moment, the woman suddenly took out a small star key from her chest and unlocked it while speaking.

"Besides that, I had another dream. I met myself in another world... No, we met."

"She gave me this cane, and with it, we have the key to the future of our dreams."

After telling another dream, the woman put away her cane again, looked at the man and smiled, "For me, happiness is to be born like this, to meet you, to live with you, and to give birth to that child with you."

Hearing this, the man smiled and said, "It's the same for me. I have never forgotten what you said to me when the child was born. I will definitely protect you and the child because you are both the most important people to me."

After that, the man embraced the woman in his arms, and said softly but firmly: "Even if we are separated again and can't be together, I will definitely go find you and meet you again."

"Me too……"

Feeling the embrace of the man she loves, the woman also hugged the man tightly. Perhaps, this was their last tenderness.

However, in the next second, a milky white light suddenly appeared near the two of them. The light was not dazzling, but it was impossible to ignore.

"careful!"

Although he didn't know what was happening, the man subconsciously protected the woman behind him, frowning and staring at the light.

The milky white light slowly dissipated under the man's vigilance, revealing four figures in the light.

One of the figures looked around, and after gazing around the ancient courtyard, he said excitedly, "It actually worked!"

Hearing this, another person in the figure subconsciously complained: "Wait, you mean you don't know whether the crossing just now will be successful?"

"Of course I don't know what you're saying. After all, this is my first time using it, okay?"

"What!?"

"Okay, don't get excited. I can protect you even if something goes wrong. Why are you so angry?"

"asshole……"

The noisy noise reached the ears of the man and woman not far away, but they were both speechless at this moment and just stared at two of the four figures without blinking.

"Syaoran and...Sakura?"

Muttering, the man and the woman subconsciously walked out of the ancient pavilion and walked towards the few people who appeared out of thin air. Their actions also attracted the attention of the figures.

After turning their gaze away, they looked at the two people walking towards them. Sakura and Syaoran, who had successfully crossed into the dimensional world, just stayed where they were, staring at the newcomers stupidly.

"Oh? Is this the grown-up Sakura and Li?" Tomoyo looked at the man and the woman without being stunned and blinked.

"Probably. After all, they look like the grown-up version of them."

Xia Yu looked at the two adults approaching, and then looked at the two minors beside him. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that the two people opposite him looked like the two people beside him when they grew up.

"Um, are you the other me who met in my dream last night?" When the woman approached, Sakura quickly came back to her senses and asked hesitantly to the other self.

This question also made the woman stop in her tracks, a little surprised. She asked in astonishment: "Are you the other me who gave me the cane in the dream?"

"Well, if the staff you get is the Star Staff, then that's me."

Sakura smiled and held out her hand: "I'm Sakura Kinomoto, nice to meet you."

Facing Sakura's greeting, the woman also showed a gentle smile and stretched out her hand to shake it: "I'm Sakura, and I'm glad to meet you too."

The little Sakura here greeted the adult Sakura in a friendly manner, while the man who came with the adult Sakura frowned and looked at the others.

"How did you come to this world?"

Li Xiaolang looked at the man opposite him who looked 70% like his father, opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.

If he guessed correctly, the man opposite should be him when he grew up. After all, he often heard his family say that he looked very similar to his father.

If he grew up, he would probably look like the man opposite.

Seeing that Li Xiaolang was just staring at him blankly, the adult wolf had to turn his gaze to the two figures next to him. The female figure made him slightly stunned.

The familiar face instantly reminded him of his former companion Kuroko, who was a ninja from a certain dimension and served a princess named Tomoyo.

The girl in front of him looked extremely similar to Princess Tomoyo described by Kurogan, and also looked exactly like the president of Pifflt Princess Company in Piffle Country, Tomoyo Daidoji, whom he knew. But obviously, the other party was not those two people.

The thoughts flashed through his mind, and the adult wolf shifted his gaze again, looking at the boy who was a complete stranger to him among the four.

In all his memories, there was no one who looked like this boy. The boy in front of him was a complete stranger to him.

"who are you?"

"I?"

Facing the adult wolf's question, Xia Yu grinned and said, "I am here to save your god."
