Chapter 540: The Stolen Doll
Meanwhile, outside the ice storage.
After Xia Yu used magic to freeze the door of the ice storage, Sakura and Tomoyo also came over.
However, the three of them didn't say anything. They just stood quietly at the door, listening to the movement inside the ice storage, which was quite noisy.
The fierce sound of flowing water and wind hitting the wall made a loud bang, as if the wind cards and water cards were fighting fiercely.
Not long after, the loud noise gradually slowed down, as if the fierce battle between wind and water had ended.
"The water stream should have been frozen, but we should be safe than sorry. Let's wait a little longer." Xia Yu has not forgotten the scene of the water sign breaking free from the freeze. He had obviously frozen the other party, but the water sign broke free from the freeze in an instant.
Although it may be because the cold air is running out of steam, there is no need to worry about this in an ice storage, as the ice storage environment is specially designed for freezing.
After hearing what Xia Yu said, Sakura and Tomoyo nodded, thinking that what Xia Yu said made sense. After waiting for a few minutes, the three of them prepared to go in and take a look.
"Okay, Xia, you can remove the magic now."
Sakura pulled the door handle but found it didn't move. Then she remembered that Xia Yu had frozen the door of the ice storage using magic, so she looked at Xia Yu and said.
Hearing this, Xia Yu said unjustifiably: "There is no way. Do you think my magic is so easy to break? Let me tell you, even I can't break my magic."
“…”
Sakura was a little dumbfounded: "Xia...Xia classmate? You said you can't remove your own freezing magic?"
"no way!"
Seeing that Xia Yu didn't seem to be joking, Zhishi chuckled: "Haha~ It seems that we can only wait for the ice storage door to slowly melt open by itself."
"Ah..." Sakura leaned against the wall in frustration, frowning and thinking: "We don't know how long we have to wait like this. What if the teacher comes looking for us? It would be great if we could just blow open the door of the ice storage."
“Good idea!”
"Huh?"
Seeing that Xia Yu actually agreed with the idea she just said casually, Xiaoying waved her hands and said hurriedly: "Xia classmate, I was just joking just now. We can't destroy other people's facilities casually!"
"Hey, it's too late!"
Xia Yu chuckled, pulled Sakura and Tomoyo behind him, pointed his wand at the ice storage door, and cast another door-opening spell.
"Explosion rumble!"
Boom!!!
With a loud bang, the originally tightly closed door of the ice storage exploded on the spot, splattering ice chips and dust everywhere, making the three of them cover their faces and squint.
When the dust settled, the tightly closed door of the ice storage looked like it had been bombarded. There was a mark of explosion in the center, and the door fell straight to the ground.
"Okay, open it. Sakura, you're really smart to come up with such a good idea."
Xia Yu gave Xiaoying a thumbs up, and Zhishi beside him couldn't help but smiled and said, "Xia Yu is right, Xiaoying, you are so smart. You can actually think of a good idea to blow the door open directly."
(._.≡°д°)
Sakura first looked down at the ice storage door that had fallen to the ground, then looked at Xia Yu and Tomoyo who were looking at her with admiration, and she felt a little overwhelmed.
She just said it casually, why did Xia take action immediately? She actually blew the door open?!
Now Zhishi and classmate Xia are looking at her with admiration, where can she go to seek justice?
Could it be that it was Xia who blew the door open, so it had nothing to do with her? But it was indeed she who first suggested to blow the door of the ice storage, and then Xia took action.
At this moment, the honest girl Sakura was confused. She was already thinking about whether she should take the initiative to find the director of the aquarium to admit her mistake and then compensate the aquarium.
"Xiaoying, are you thinking of taking the initiative to admit your mistake and compensate?"
Seeing Sakura's confused look, Tomoyo couldn't help but burst out laughing, then stopped smiling and asked.
Hearing what Tomoyo said, Sakura looked up in confusion: "Shouldn't I admit my mistake? Wouldn't it be bad to sneak away like this? After all..."
"Haha, Sakura, you are so stupid but cute." Seeing that Sakura hadn't reacted yet, Tomoyo explained directly to her.
"Do you think Xia is an impulsive person?"
"Um... no."
"That's right, haven't you forgotten how Xia cleaned up the mess when the Shadow Card was sealed last time? Think about it, how did the statue that was smashed by the Shadow Card recover?"
"statue……"
After being reminded by Tomoyo, Sakura quickly recalled that night. At that time, Xia Yu directly used repair magic to erase all traces of the battle with the shadow card.
So… just now, Xia was trying to make fun of me? And Zhishi understood Xia's thoughts instantly? I was the only one who was worrying foolishly?
“…”
"You guys are so annoying. You actually laughed at me!" Sakura puffed up her cheeks angrily. She was just about to contribute her own pocket money to compensate for the ice storage door!
"Haha, silly Sakura is also cute."
Zhishi covered her mouth and laughed secretly, and stretched out her hand to Xia Yu: "Thank you, classmate Xia, for letting me take pictures of something good again."
Xia Yu grinned, stretched out his hand and high-fived Zhishi: "Don't forget to give me a copy."
"Don't worry, I won't forget it."
Sakura: ...
It’s so bullying!
"Alright, Sakura, let's seal the Clow Cards first. We've already wasted quite a bit of time, and my classmates are probably ready to gather back to school now."
With Tomoyo's comfort, the angry Sakura finally stopped worrying about the problem just now, because Tomoyo was right, sealing the Clow Cards was the most important thing.
Thinking of this, Sakura walked into the ice storage.
When the three of them walked into the ice storage, the first thing they saw was an exquisite and gorgeous mermaid ice sculpture.
There are many streams of water hanging around the ice sculpture, but at this moment, those streams of water are all frozen into ice. At first glance, they look like shackles that bind the mermaid.
"Is this what water really looks like? It's so beautiful."
Sakura looked at the mermaid ice sculpture and couldn't help but admire it, but praise was praise, and it still had to be sealed.
"Return to your original form, Clow Card!"
Sakura raised her magic wand high and smashed it hard at the ice sculpture.
If it were an ordinary ice sculpture, it would probably be shattered by this blow, but it was obvious that this mermaid ice sculpture was not an ordinary ice sculpture.
The sun and moon magic circle appeared, and the magic power of Magician Kuro instantly spread in the ice storage.
Then, in an instant, a light blue card shadow appeared in front of the bird-head magic wand. The next moment, the mermaid ice sculpture shattered, and under the suction of the card shadow, all the ice cubes were sucked into it.
The dancing ice chips are like stars, embellishing the dreamlike scene in front of us.
When all the ice was absorbed by the card, the card's shadow also completely solidified, and finally turned into a piece of paper, gently falling into Sakura's hand.
"Watery?"
Looking at the Clow Card that fell into her hand, Sakura read out the words on it and said with some realization, "It turns out to be a Water Card. No wonder it can control the flow of water."
"Since the seal is successful, let's go out first." Xia Yu reminded: "Don't you think the ice storage is very cold?"
"Hiss... Xia classmate, it's okay if you don't say anything, but now that you say it, it's really a bit cold."
Sakura shook herself. She could feel her body getting colder with every breath she took. If she stayed like this any longer, she would definitely catch a cold.
After they got out of the ice storage, and Xia Yu used "Repair As New" to repair and close the door, they felt a lot more relaxed.
"It's time to go back. Maybe the teacher is looking for us." Xia Yu said.
"But our clothes are all dirty. If someone asks you about it, remember to think of a suitable excuse." Tomoyo suddenly reminded them. The clothes of the three of them were all dirty during their escape. It might not seem like a big deal at first glance, but it would definitely be noticeable if you looked closely.
"Don't worry, just watch me."
Xia Yu raised his wand and waved it over the three people's heads: "Clean it up!"
In an instant, the three people's originally dirty clothes became clean, as if they had just been washed, without even the wrinkles.
"Classmate Xia is really reliable." Zhishi smiled sweetly at Xia Yu. She had already thought of a reason why her clothes got dirty, but now she didn't need it.
"That's great. With this magic, I don't have to do housework anymore. I can just wave my wand and it's done."
Sakura looked at Xia Yu's magic wand with some envy, and felt depressed again. Why couldn't she, a Cultivator of Magic, use magic to clean the house?
"Okay, okay, time to go."
After erasing all traces near the ice storage door, Xia Yu waved his wand again, cast an invisibility spell on the three people, and secretly returned to the group visiting the aquarium.
Although a whirlpool suddenly appeared in the penguin house before, fortunately it was safe, so the students are still visiting the remaining exhibition halls.
There were no strange phenomena in the nearby exhibition halls, and the three of them successfully mixed into the original team.
Even though a few students noticed that the three of them had suddenly disappeared, they just thought that they were visiting other exhibition halls alone and did not think much about it.
Finally, the thrilling field trip day for Sakura came to an end.
Of course, although it was thrilling, she was also lucky because she not only saw the cute penguin show, but also successfully captured the water sign.
After the off-campus teaching day ended, life returned to its usual routine.
After the water sign incident, more than half a month passed. During this period, nothing happened. Maybe there were some waves, but they were not big.
The reason for the commotion was that Sakura had sealed two more Clow Cards, the Tree Card and the Rain Card. These two Clow Cards happened to be in Sakura's house and were discovered by her when she was cleaning.
The Tree Card is very gentle. When it was discovered, it looked like a Clow Card. After the Rain Card was sealed, it turned back into a Clow Card.
The Rain Card is quite naughty, but under the control of the Water Card, it can't make any waves at all and is easily sealed by Sakura.
When Xia Yu learned about this, he could only sigh that he was worthy of being the protagonist, as he could even pick up Clow Cards at home, and those were Clow Cards with decent personalities.
Of course, it wasn't like nothing happened to him. Over the past half month, he gradually became familiar with his identity as a primary school student and no longer felt that sense of disorientation as before.
Now, he can proudly pat his chest and announce to others that he is just an elementary school student.
Sad~ Without Xia Yu noticing, he ended up falling ill.
…
School day.
The new day is bright and sunny, which is very suitable for sports.
It just so happened that they had a physical education class today, and it was a physical education class for a test on pommel horse. The pommel horse was stacked eight layers high.
If an elementary school student from the world of Bleach were to do this, I'm afraid none of them would be able to jump over it. After all, even the long-legged elementary school students from Sakura's world can easily get stuck on the karaoke horse.
"Xia Yu!"
After the physical education teacher recorded the results of the previous student, he called the next student.
“Here it comes!”
Xia Yu walked to the pommel horse, looked at the horse that was almost as tall as himself, and felt a little speechless. Was it made so high because they were afraid that someone would step over it?
Fortunately, he is not an ordinary primary school student.
Xia Yu took a deep breath, and his calf muscles suddenly tensed. After a long run, he pushed the pommel horse with both hands as he jumped, and his body jumped high into the air.
After jumping into the air, Xia Yu did several somersaults before landing safely.
This chic scene even stunned the teacher , not to mention the students who were watching. After they reacted, the teacher was the first to applaud.
Hearing the teacher applauding, the other students also hurriedly applauded and gave applause to Xia Yu's performance.
Listening to the continuous applause in his ears, Xia Yu curled up the corners of his mouth and laughed: "Worship me, mortals, this is the ability of a magician. A magician can easily do things that ordinary people can't do."
After saying that, Xia Yu did a backflip on the ground and jumped directly onto the pommel horse. Then he opened his arms, accepting everyone's gaze as if he was embracing the sun.
But before he could strike a pose for long, a voice refuted what he had just said.
"Xia, isn't a magician supposed to use magic? But you just relied on your body's lightness, which has nothing to do with magic at all?"
Hearing someone refuting him, Xia Yu looked down and found that the person who refuted him was Naoko Yanagisawa, a girl with short chestnut hair and wearing round glasses.
She is a girl who loves reading and is keen on all kinds of supernatural events and ghost stories.
"Naoko, you are wrong."
Xia Yu shook his finger and said mysteriously: "A so-called magician is not just someone who can use magic. To become a real magician, you must have a good physique and strong combat power!"
"Eh? Is that so?"
"That's it!"
Xia Yu showed a happy smile on his face, and fooled the ignorant primary school students: "Only those inferior magicians can only use magic. Real magicians are masters of close combat. Only those who can split a mountain with one punch and split the earth with two punches are worthy of being called real magicians."
“That’s amazing.”
"So this is the real magician?"
"So the magicians in comics are all inferior magicians?"
Hearing Xia Yu's confident words, the students watching around him had sparkling eyes, and couldn't help but imagine what a real magician would look like .
"Ahem, Xia, we can do the popular science lesson during the break. We still have to continue with the pommel horse test."
At this moment, the physical education teacher suddenly coughed twice and spoke to Xia Yu who was standing tall on the pommel horse.
This classmate named Xia Yu is good in every way. He is good at studying, good at sports, and helpful. He is almost perfect, but his personality is a bit weird and he likes to be the center of attention.
However, there are no perfect people in the world. Only people with flaws can be called human beings. If you think in this way, the problem is no longer a problem.
"Okay, teacher, students, this is the end of the popular science. Next time I will popularize what a real warrior looks like."
After saying that, Xia Yu flipped over and jumped off the pommel horse. Seeing this, the teacher looked at the notebook and called out the next student to be tested.
"Kinomoto."
After a few seconds, seeing that Sakura Kinomoto didn't come over and was still talking, the teacher called out again: "Kinomoto!"
However, Sakura, who was distracted, did not hear it until Tomoyo reminded her, and then Sakura reacted with a scream.
"good!"
As she agreed, Sakura sprinted towards the horse, then pushed herself up with both hands and jumped over it perfectly.
"Sakura is worthy of her name. She jumps so perfectly every time." Tomoyo couldn't help but mutter after watching Sakura jump over the pommel horse.
"Hey, Power-class, isn't my dance perfect?"
At this moment, Xia Yu suddenly walked over, leaned against the wire mesh, turned his head and smiled at Zhishi.
"Really? Can't Xia just call me by my name?" Zhishi puffed up her cheeks in pretending to be angry, but when she saw that Xia Yu had no intention of apologizing, she still smiled gently.
"Xia's dancing is no longer perfect, it's extraordinary. After all, Xia is a magician who can easily do things that ordinary people can't do."
"Of course!"
Xia Yu had no intention of being modest. After all, one of the main characteristics of being sunny and cheerful is arrogance, and modesty is absolutely unacceptable.
"By the way, what were you and Sakura talking about just now? I saw that Sakura looked a little sad, and she didn't even hear the teacher calling her."
Hearing Xia Yu's question, Zhi Shi's eyebrows drooped: "It's about the stolen doll. Chiharu's doll was lost, and even the thief's fingerprints were not found."
"And this is related to a certain toy store. There is a rumor that if you buy something from that toy store, something bad will happen. It just so happens that Chiharu bought the doll from that toy store."
"Although it's just a rumor in the toy industry, it's really too coincidental."
After saying that, Zhishi just looked at Xia Yu, hoping to hear Xia Yu's opinion.
"It's really strange. Do you think it could be the work of the Clow Cards?" Xia Yu guessed. He could only guess this way. Although Sakura sealed a Clow Card in each episode, in fact, a very long time had passed. From the first episode to the eighth episode, a full two months had passed.
As for why he remembered it so clearly, it was because he remembered that Li Xiaolang appeared in the eighth episode, and at that time Li Xiaolang asked if he hadn't collected all the Clow Cards in two months? This directly hit Sakura, so he remembered the connection between two months and the eighth episode.
So even if he couldn't remember the story of collecting every Clow Card, if he encountered an unusual situation in this world, he would definitely guess the Clow Cards.
"Clow Cards?"
Tomoyo stroked his chin and thought for a while, then murmured, "It's not impossible. It looks like I need to go investigate with Sakura. Xia, do you want to come?"
"Of course. After all, we are comrades, aren't we?"
"Haha~ Of course."
After the physical education class, Tomoyo told Sakura about Xia Yu's idea, and Sakura agreed to go to the toy store after school.
If it really is a Clow Card, we must seal up the troublesome Clow Card.
Ding~ding~ding~ding~ding~
As the school bell rang, the day's classes came to an end.
After saying goodbye to the teacher, the students headed towards their homes. On the way, Sakura and Tomoyo led Xia Yu towards a toy store that had only been open for a short time.
The toy store is called "TWIN BELLS", which means "twin bells", and its logo is two golden bells tied with golden bows.
"Welcome."
Hearing the sound of the door opening, the manager, who had been frowning, forced a smile and greeted the customer.
The store manager was a beautiful and gentle woman with gray-brown curly hair. When she saw that the customer was the student she had helped before, the manager's face, which was originally full of worry, relaxed a little.
But on the contrary, Sakura and Tomoyo were shocked because they saw a familiar doll, which was the doll that Chiharu lost.
"What's wrong?"
The store manager was a little surprised when he saw Sakura and Tomoyo looking surprised.
"Maki-sister, that's Chiharu's..."
Sakura pointed at a silly panda-headed doll. The manager turned around curiously and when he saw the familiar doll, he immediately showed an expression of fear and shock.
"here we go again……"
