The sunny boy from Cardcaptor Sakura

"Hey hehe~"

Sakura was praised for being cute again, and responded with an adorable silly smile.

"By the way, Sakura, would you like to go watch your dad go to class?"

The girl in the street winked playfully at Sakura, and upon hearing this, Sakura asked with some surprise, "Is it okay? Won't it cause any trouble?"

"Of course you can, Kinomoto-sensei is very popular."

After saying that, the group of passersby walked towards a teaching building, waving to Sakura and her friends at the same time.

"Come quickly."

"Ok!"

Sakura followed along with a slightly excited heart. She had never seen her father teach before, except for the special classes last semester, because the audience her father faced last time was a group of elementary school students, not his own students.

Behind them, Tomoyo and Natsume saw Sakura's light and lively steps, smiled at each other, and followed her.

A few minutes later, the group entered a teaching building.

The windows of the large classroom in the teaching building are very low, so even at Sakura's height, the inside of the classroom can be seen.

Looking around, the classroom was almost full, with students sitting in both the front and back rows. The students were all attentively reading their books and listening attentively to the teacher's lecture.

Looking at the university classroom, which was almost completely different from what he remembered, Xia Yu was stunned. Was this really a university? Were these students really university students?

Why are the front rows of this large classroom always full of people? And the people in the back rows aren't slacking off; instead, they're listening attentively.

If he remembered correctly, Fujitaka was a professor in the Department of Archaeology. Would a course like this really attract so many people to attend, apart from students majoring in archaeology?

This is truly a magical scene.

It's almost unbelievable that something like this could happen in real life. Even for the sake of credits, a classroom like this, with every seat filled and no one distracted, is simply impossible in reality.

"Uncle's lecture was excellent," Tomoyo suddenly said after watching Fujitaka's lecture for a while.

Xia Yu nodded in agreement, saying, "Indeed, the ability to get all students to listen attentively and not have a single student lose focus is something that not every teacher can do."

He truly is a near-perfect man; even his lectures are perfect.

Hearing her two friends praise her father, Sakura smiled and said that praising her father made her happier than praising her.

"Kinomoto-sensei's classes are very popular."

The girl in the trio of passersby suddenly spoke up, and the boy next to her chimed in, "Professor Kinomoto's lectures are very interesting. When I first entered university, I never imagined that I would become interested in history."

"The three of us are now Kinomoto-sensei's assistants, helping him with his research."

"So that's it."

Sakura suddenly realized why they were so familiar with her father. The next second, she hurriedly thanked them, saying, "Thank you for taking care of my father."

"No, no, we are the ones who have received a lot of care from Kinomoto-sensei."

The girl in the street smiled back, glanced at her watch, and continued, "Mr. Kinomoto's class is almost over. Let's wander around for a bit first, and then go to his office to find him."

"Good~"

……

As the clock hands slowly moved, the bell rang to signal the end of get out of class.

The group of people who were originally strolling around the campus stopped when they heard the bell ring and headed towards Fujitaka's office together.

Because of his profession, Fujitaka's office is filled with all kinds of archaeological data and ancient books. He returned to his office as soon as get out of class ended and began a seemingly never-ending work.

The small laptop kept beeping without stopping or hesitating.

dong dong~

"Please come in."

The knocking sounded, but Fujitaka didn't turn his head, still engrossed in his work.

With a whoosh, the door was pulled open, and a girl from the street led Sakura and the others to the doorway, announcing, "Kinomoto-sensei, your daughter has come to visit you."

"Ok?"

The keyboard, which had been typing non-stop, suddenly stopped. Fujitaka was stunned for a moment, and then quickly turned around and got up after realizing what was happening.

"Sakura?"

Sakura smiled slightly at her father's surprise and said, "Sorry to bother you."

"Oh, what brings you all here?"

Fujitaka looked at the three children who walked into the office with a slight surprise. Sakura smiled and handed over the bamboo basket she was carrying, saying, "Dad will be staying at school these days, so I came to visit him. This contains our heartfelt wishes. Please try it."

Upon hearing this explanation, Fujitaka, who had been somewhat surprised, sat back down with a gentle and relieved smile on his face.

"Thank you for making the trip, Sakura, and also Tomoyo and Konatsu. Thank you for accompanying Sakura as well."

"Teacher, let's continue organizing the materials in the archives then."

Seeing that Mr. Kinomoto and her daughter had already started chatting, the girl who had brought Sakura and the others suddenly spoke up. After she finished speaking, she closed the office door behind her.

Upon hearing the name "Records Room," Sakura asked curiously, "Records Room?"

"Because my office has so many books, it's a bit cramped for just me here, so they help me with things in the archives next door," Fujitaka explained with a smile.

"I see."

"They also volunteered to live at the school to help me. Although it was hard work, thanks to their help, my work is almost finished." Fujitaka pointed to the laptop in front of him, which was covered with materials for the presentation.

"Uncle, are they graduate students?" After listening to Tenglong's words, Xia Yu suddenly asked an unrelated question.

Upon hearing this question, although he didn't know why Xia Yu was asking it, Tenglong nodded in response.

“That’s right, they are graduate students, and I am their advisor.”

Wow, it’s true.

Xia Yu was somewhat speechless. Although the concept of a graduate student in Japan is not the same as that in China, and the term "graduate student" in Japan means pre-master's program, the familiar relationship between the graduate student and the supervisor was exactly the same.

The relationship between a supervisor and a graduate student is analogous to that of a master and an apprentice. One seeks a master for personal development and is willing to work under the master; the other knows that the apprentice will depend on him, so he uses the apprentice as cheap labor to reduce his own workload.

Although Xia Yu had never taken the postgraduate entrance exam, he had seen many postgraduate students complaining online about how irresponsible their supervisors were.

However, that was his original world. According to the tone of Sakura's world, those assistants should all be helping voluntarily, and they might even be happy that their mentor needs them. Fujitaka is not the kind of mentor who exploits his students. He should gain the students' recognition through his personal charm.

Thankfully, this is Sakura's world. If this were Conan's world, with that classic trio and Fujitaka's hard work living at the school day and night, a murder would probably have occurred long ago.

Chapter 127 Sleeping Card

"That's great! Seeing how hard Dad is working, I was worried about what I would do if I couldn't finish the work."

Hearing her father say that the work was almost finished, Sakura patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief.

Although her father's job had little to do with her, as a family member, she naturally felt the same way and worried about him.

However, just as Sakura finished speaking, Fujitaka, who had been listening with a smile, suddenly lowered his head slightly and closed his eyes.

The first to notice this was the perceptive Tomoyo. Seeing that Sakura didn't seem to have noticed yet, she whispered a reminder: "Sakura, your uncle seems to be asleep."

"Ok?"

Upon hearing this, Xiaoying looked up and saw that her father, who had been listening to her with a smile, had closed his eyes at some point. Judging from his appearance, he must have fallen asleep in his seat due to exhaustion.

"dad……"

Before Sakura could do anything, Fujitaka, who had been dozing off, suddenly slumped over, his tired eyes snapping open. He couldn't help but yawn, then gave Sakura an apologetic smile.

"Sorry, I've been sleeping very little lately, so I was a little dazed just now."

"No, it's okay."

Sakura shook her head. Seeing that her father seemed very tired, she didn't want to bother him any longer. After taking everything out of the basket, she decided to leave.

"Dad, then we won't bother you anymore. Work may be important, but your health is more important."

"Okay, I'll take good care of myself."

Fujitaka responded to his daughter's concern with a smile.

After chatting for a few more minutes, Sakura and the others left the office and walked out of the Literature Club building.

The sun had already set, and the dazzling sunlight had turned dim and yellowish.

As the sun set, Xiaoying recalled the tired look on her father's face when she and the others left, and couldn't help but feel a pang of heartache.

"Honestly, my body is clearly telling me I need to rest, but Dad is still running around doing things. He must have stayed up all night to suddenly doze off."

"There's nothing we can do, that's just how adults are."

Xia Yu sighed softly: "It's precisely because we're adults that we sometimes have no choice in what we do. Is it that we don't want to rest? No, it's that we can't let go of everything to rest."

He had seen an online survey somewhere before, which said that almost no young people nowadays are in good health and are all in a state of sub-health.

Is it that you don't want to have a healthy body? No, it's that life forces you to not have a healthy body.

Not to mention a single father like Fujitaka, with a son in high school and a daughter in elementary school, it would be even more difficult for him to maintain a regular schedule.

After listening to Xia Yu's words, Xiao Ying fell silent. Although she was still young, she was not an ignorant child and naturally understood the meaning behind Xia Yu's words. Her father had no choice but to ignore her for the sake of the whole family.

After a few seconds, Sakura sighed, "I want to help Dad, but I don't know how I can help?"
