Despite complaining, Sonomi still took the phone and put it to her ear: "It's me...it's me..."

A few seconds later, Yuanmei frowned slightly and hung up the phone. She put her hands together and apologized to the children, saying, "I'm sorry, there's a rather urgent issue at the company. This call might take a long time..."

Hearing this, Tomoyo stood up sensibly and said, "Then let's go to our room and play first."

Sakura nodded and stood up: "Yes, thank you for the cake, Auntie."

Xia Yu also picked up a plate of uneaten cake and bowed slightly, saying, "Thank you for your hospitality."

After saying that, the three of them walked towards the room together. As Sonoko watched the three of them leave, especially Sakura, she couldn't help but feel a little sad. She wanted to continue chatting.

"Sakura, stay for dinner, okay? You'll definitely come! We made a promise!"

Faced with Sonomi's enthusiasm, Sakura smiled sweetly and said, "Okay!"

On her way back to her room, Sakura thought back to the warm-hearted Sonomi and couldn't help but say, "Tomoyo, your mother is so nice."

"Thank you, my mom will be very happy."

Tomoyo replied with a smile, then suddenly looked at Xia Yu: "Sorry, Xia Yu, you're a guest too, but Mom..."

"what?"

Seeing that Chiyo suddenly apologized to him, Xia Yu hurriedly waved his hand and said, "It's okay, I don't mind. Besides, Sakura is everyone's beloved darling. It would be strange if anyone didn't like Sakura at first glance."

Sakura, who was about to apologize, blushed upon hearing this.

Honestly, Xia always says things like that, like liking someone at first sight... even though Li is so cold.

Upon hearing this, Tomoyo covered her mouth and smiled faintly, without saying anything more. Before long, the group arrived at the door of Tomoyo's bedroom.

As soon as they pushed open the door, before they could even go inside, a small yellow figure with big teeth bared suddenly rushed in front of them in the blink of an eye.

"cake!!"

"what?!"

Kero's sudden appearance startled Sakura. After scaring Sakura, Kero was still not satisfied and floated in front of Sakura with a resentful look, as aggrieved as a ghost.

"You guys are excluding me, and I'm the only one who can't eat cake. I'm so sad!"

Because Tomoyo's bedroom window has a view of the water garden, Kero not only can't eat the cake, but also has to watch Sakura and the others eat it while she can only silently swallow her saliva in her bedroom.

"Sakura, you look like you're enjoying the cake. I've been watching you guys from this room the whole time, and it's really so sad."

"I'm sorry, Xiao Ke..."

Sakura quickly smiled apologetically, but Kero's resentment deepened because Sakura hadn't brought it a cake. It had thought Sakura would think of it while eating the cake.

Waaaaah, it's going to carve the word "misery" on the table!

"Huh? Nobody wants any cake? Well then, I won't be polite and will take the rest."

Xia Yu, who was a step behind, walked in, carrying a plate with a slice of sweet cake on it.

The aroma of the cake made Xiao Ke's eyes light up, and she flew to the cake in a flash, eagerly saying, "Me! Me! Me! I want to eat cake! Someone wants to eat it! I want to eat it!"

Seeing Kero's impatient look, Sakura, who had been smiling in acknowledgment, burst out laughing, and Tomoyo, who was standing next to her, also smiled.

Xiao Ke took the cake from Xia Yu's hand, hurriedly flew back to the coffee table, and then quickly used a fork to cut off a piece of the cake and stuffed it into her mouth.

"Waaah, you really understand me, Xia boy. I'll never hit you again."

Listening to Xiao Ke's mumbled words with her mouth full of food, Xia Yu rolled his eyes. He was sure Xiao Ke would forget about it later.

After savoring the cake on the plate, Xiao Ke sighed with satisfaction and said, "Seriously, this room has the feel of Clow Cards. I'm so lonely here all by myself. Luckily, there's cake to soothe my lonely heart."

"Crow cards?"

Sakura asked curiously, and Tomoyo nodded knowingly: "I knew it, as expected of Kero."

"what?"

Sakura looked over in surprise. She first looked at Tomoyo, then at Natsume, and noticed that neither of them seemed surprised. Could it be that she was the only one who didn't know what had happened?

"Actually, this is my problem."

As she spoke, Tomoyo walked towards the wardrobe and took out a square storage box from it.

After placing the storage box on the coffee table, Tomoyo said with a hint of worry, "This box suddenly won't open. Even though I have the key, you see..."

As she spoke, Tomoyo aimed the key in her hand at the lock of the box, but just as she was about to insert it, an invisible force suddenly appeared and flicked the key away.

The key spun several times in the air, but before it hit the ground, Xia Yu caught it.

"It really was the Clow Cards that were behind it."

Xiao Ke flew to the box and said confidently, "There's a faint scent of Clow Cards coming from this box, but I'm not sure what kind of cards they are."

Tomoyo took the key from Natsume and said again, "I originally wanted to open this box that Mom hasn't opened in a long time, but I didn't expect it to turn out like this. I guess it's the Clow Cards causing trouble, so I asked you to come and take a look."

After saying that, Tomoyo picked up the small box again: "There are very important things for my mother and me inside. The box is just stuck, so it's not really gone, but the things inside are very important. I'm a little worried because I can't open it."

Chapter 76 It turns out to be a shield

"Hahaha, so you just can't open the box? Then Tomoyo, you've come to the right person."

After Tomoyo finished speaking, Xia Yu suddenly laughed and pulled out his wand from behind his back: "There's no lock I can't open. Since it can lock the box, it must be a lock tag."

"Locking in license plates?"

Xiao Ke stroked her chin and thought for a moment: "It's not impossible, but the lock card is actually called the ingot card."

"Whether it's a token or a lock, as long as it's a lock, it can be opened."

Xia Yu confidently pointed his wand at the small box: "Alohomora!"

With a flash of the wand, the box... remained unopened.

Looking at the still tightly closed box, Xia Yu's confident smile froze. He couldn't help but tap the box with his wand: "Foolish lock, daring to resist my magic, accept reality! Arahurst open!"

"..."

"Hahaha, you brat, even your magic has its limitations." Seeing that the box didn't react, Xiao Ke laughed mercilessly.

Hearing Xiao Ke's laughter, Xia Yu flicked Xiao Ke away with a finger, only then belatedly realizing what had happened.

"Tsk, I forgot, the Arahu Cave can only open locks that are locked and not protected by magic. This lock is protected by magic."

At this point, Xia Yu changed his spell again, tapping the box lightly with his wand and saying, "Open the box!"

"..."

"Open the box!!"

"This...this isn't right??"

Seeing that the box still didn't react, Xia Yu couldn't help but doubt his life. If "Alaho Cave" couldn't open the magically protected lock, then "Box Open" was a different story.

"Open Box" is a spell to open boxes, containers, or other storage containers. It can force open even containers protected by magic, making it very suitable for the current situation.

Seeing Xia Yu's bewildered expression, Xiao Ying suddenly guessed, "Um... is it possible? I mean, is it possible that the lock on the box isn't actually a lock tag?"

"Eh?"×2

Xia Yu and Xiao Ke turned their heads at the same time, looking at Xiao Ying with a blank expression.

Under such scrutiny, Sakura scratched her head and said somewhat shyly, "I was wondering if there are any Clow Cards with overlapping functions since there are so many of them? And the ones that lock the box aren't necessarily the Lock Cards."

"Yes!"

Xiao Ke clenched his fist and exclaimed in sudden realization, "Sakura, you're right! The thing locking the box isn't necessarily the token!"

After saying that, Xiao Ke glared at Xia Yu: "It's all this brat's fault for messing up my train of thought, making me think it was Dingpai too."

Xia Yu: (〝▼plate▼)

I'll play!

"Hey, what are you doing!"

Xiao Ke got flicked on the forehead again, in the same spot. She rubbed her big head and glared at Xia Yu.

"Humph!"

Xia Yu turned his head away, too lazy to look at Xiao Ke. If the box was locked and couldn't be opened, most people would immediately think of the lock tag.

"Damn brat!!"

Xiao Ke was so angry that her teeth itched. She gritted her teeth and ground them together, wishing she could rush up and bite Xia Yu right now.

"Alright, alright, let's see what kind of Clow Card it is first."

Sakura quickly smoothed things over, taking out her key necklace and unsealing it into a magic wand.

"Well……"

Despite saying this, Sakura was also clueless. After staring at the box for a while, she tentatively pointed her wand at the box.

However, just from that small detail, a spherical, semi-transparent black barrier suddenly appeared on the small box, directly deflecting Sakura's wand.

"Eh?"

Seeing this, Sakura and Kero were both a little surprised. Sakura tested the magic wand again, and the semi-transparent barrier reappeared.

"I see!"
