The sunny boy from Cardcaptor Sakura

"Thank you."

Although she didn't know what Xia Yu and Zhi Shi were doing in the audiovisual room, Sakura still thanked Chiharu and hurriedly ran towards the audiovisual room.

If Xia Yu and Zhi Shi hadn't been willing to accompany her to school last night, she might not have gone to seal the Clow Cards, so she really has to thank them.

A verbal thank you wasn't enough; she also prepared two small gifts to express her gratitude.

Thinking about all this, Sakura quickened her pace and soon arrived at the door of the audiovisual room.

Swish-!

"Tomoyo, Natsumi-kun, last night..."

As the door opened, Sakura strode in, but she paused abruptly before she could even speak.

"Eh?"

Σ(⊙▽⊙“)

On the large screen in the audiovisual room, footage of her sealing the Clow Cards last night was playing. It was high-definition, had its own sound, and was edited, showing various angles.

On the screen, the audience watched as Tomoyo and Natsume.

"Wow, Tomoyo, you're amazing! I never knew you could not only film, but also edit."

Xia Yu sincerely praised it, even from his perspective in this later era, Zhi Shi's editing was already quite good.

It's a pity there aren't any video websites yet, otherwise, uploading it to a video website would definitely get a lot of views.

"Hehe, I take everything about Sakura very seriously."

Tomoyo covered her mouth and chuckled softly. This was something she had worked overtime to make last night; she had almost stayed up all night to complete the video.

Fortunately, the video wasn't long, otherwise I might have had to stay up all night.

Sakura, who had been standing frozen at the door, heard the two talking and walked over stiffly like a wooden doll, her shyness and embarrassment reaching their peak.

Although she had mentally prepared herself last night, seeing herself on the big screen today, still wearing that witch costume...

Ahhh, I want to leave right now!

I wish I hadn't come. Watching myself seal the Clow Cards was so embarrassing.

"Hey, Sakura, you've come to see Cardcaptor Sakura's heroic act of sealing the Clow Cards too? This scene truly is a picture is worth a thousand words!"

Seeing Sakura slowly dawdling over, Xia Yu suppressed a laugh and deliberately said this to her.

Sakura: (⊙﹏⊙)

Please stop talking, I really can't take it anymore!

Sakura blushed, feeling a tingling, numb sensation all over her body, as if ants were crawling on her, and her toes were tense.

I just want to faint right now.

Just then, Tomoyo suddenly stood up as well.

Her dark purple eyes sparkled as she stared intently at Sakura: "Sakura, next time you want to play cards, you have to come to me!"

"what?"

Sakura blushed and looked over, wondering why Tomoyo had said that.

Tomoyo continued, "I want to film the scene of Cardcaptor Sakura's power. Also, please leave the responsibility for your outfits to me. Next time, I'll add more ruffles and bows."

"Huh???"

Upon hearing this, Sakura didn't know how to react.

To be fair, she was still very happy, after all, not everyone has a good friend who is willing to put so much effort into them.

Sakura felt exhausted just thinking about all the clothes she had to make, but Tomoyo not only made them, but made them so beautifully.

For some reason, Sakura suddenly remembered Xia Yu's initial comments about Tomoyo.

"Tomoyo, how about I call you Power-kun from now on?"

"Eh???"

……

Time flies by.

Perhaps it was because the plot hadn't progressed yet, but Xia Yu went to school for several days in a row without encountering anything unusual.

Not only did he not encounter anything unusual, he even had far fewer opportunities to show off. After all, elementary school students don't have exams every day, so he couldn't be in the limelight every day.

So recently he has been able to stay quiet and spend his boring and leisurely school days in peace.

School campus, during break time.

Xia Yu lay on his desk, trying to sleep but unable to. He had finished all his homework and had no interest in playing around with the other elementary school students.

Of course, because of his sunny and cheerful personality, he gets along quite well with his classmates.

After all, a student who is good at studying, helpful, and cheerful is bound to be popular, no matter what, even if that student seems a bit immature.

But a person who isn't a bit immature during their youth is wasting their time, especially since this is still in elementary school.

"Xiao Xi, I'm a little bored. Tell me a joke."

[Waaaaah, Master, you finally remembered me! It's been so long since you last spoke to me.]

"Stop talking nonsense or shut up."

(Pull the mouth shut)

"Alright, stop being silly. Come on, tell me a joke to cheer me up."

Okay~ Once upon a time, there was a man named Xiao Wang who wanted to cross a river but didn't know how. After searching on Baidu, he actually managed to cross by ferry.

"..."

【…】

Why aren't you smiling, Master?

"Xia?"

Suddenly, Tomoyo, who was sitting in front of Xia Yu, turned around and looked at Xia Yu curiously: "Who were you talking to just now?"

"I'm talking to myself," Xia Yu replied listlessly.

After a pause, Xia Yu suddenly sat up, looked at Zhi Shi and said, "By the way, Zhi Shi, let me tell you a joke."

"uh-huh?"

"Once upon a time, there was a man named Xiao Wang who wanted to cross a river but didn't know how. After searching on Baidu, he actually managed to cross it by ferry." (Don't mind the Chinese phonetic similarity; consider it a translation.)

"..."

Hearing this pun-based joke, Tomoyo's lips twitched, and she forced a smile, saying, "Hehe, Natsumi's words are as funny as ever."

"Don't lie to me anymore. I know this joke is lame. By the way, this joke wasn't mine. It was my stupid friend who came up with it."

"Really? Xia's friend is quite an interesting person."

Chapter 23 Please, Miss

"By the way, Xia, it seems like the field trip is coming up soon. The teacher will probably let us know today."

After hearing the somewhat chilling joke, Tomoyo suddenly brought up another topic.

"Off-campus teaching day?"

Xia Yu frowned in confusion. What was this? Could things outside of school be connected to teaching?

"Ok?"

Seeing Xia Yu's confused expression, Zhi Shi was also puzzled: "Xia-kun, don't you know about off-campus learning days? Off-campus learning days are when you leave the campus to study in other places, such as aquariums and zoos. Doesn't your country have off-campus learning days?"

"..."

Does the Children's Palace count?

Unfortunately, he had only ever seen it in books since he was a child, since he had never experienced any so-called off-campus learning days when he was in school.

For him, attending school is the norm.

Leaving school to study at an aquarium or zoo? Maybe I should just wash up and go to sleep; anything can happen in dreams.

His only source of knowledge about animals is the "Animal World" program broadcast on CCTV.com.

Seeing Xia Yu suddenly fall silent, Zhi Shi also fell silent. She had just said it casually, but judging from Xia Yu's expression, she seemed to have guessed correctly.

What to do? Xia suddenly looked a little pitiful, as she had never experienced an off-campus teaching day before.

"It's okay, Xia. You can ask me anything you don't understand, and I'll answer it for you!"

Seeing that Xia Yu was still silent, Zhi Shi simply grabbed Xia Yu's hand and spoke in a firm and serious tone.

Facing Zhi Shi's earnest and gentle gaze, Xia Yu blushed, a rare occurrence for him. Being comforted by a girl who was more than ten years younger than him (in his own opinion), he actually felt his heart race a little.

Damn it, it must be my imagination!
