Chapter 558 A Day That Can't End
"These things are imitations of ancient burial objects. The real objects are made of precious items such as gold, silver, and ivory..."
Youzhi Elementary School, inside the auditorium.
Fujitaka Kinomoto was standing on the podium, telling the elementary school students below about the history of the pyramids.
The seats below the stage were packed, and teachers and school leaders were standing at the door.
Tomoeda Elementary School has a special course every semester where parents of students are invited to come on stage and talk about their work. Coincidentally, this time Sakura's parent, Fujitaka Kinomoto, was chosen as the speaker.
As an archaeologist and professor of the Department of Archaeology at Towa University, Fujitaka naturally talks about knowledge related to history.
Below the stage, Xia Yu and Xiao Lang sat together, listening to Teng Long's story with great interest.
I have to say that Fujitaka's lectures are really good. Perhaps because the students in his class are elementary school students, his narration is more like storytelling, which is vivid and vivid, making all the students listen attentively.
"The Pyramid of Khufu at Giza is the largest pyramid in existence and took about 40 years, if not longer, to build."
"It is said that this pyramid used 2.7 million stones, so it can be inferred that King Kufu had great power at that time..."
Fujitaka's gentle voice echoed in the lecture hall through the microphone, but just when he was halfway through his speech, the bell for the end of get out of class suddenly rang.
Thump~thump~thump~thump~
The moment he heard the bell for the end of get out of class, Fujitaka looked at his watch in confusion: "Strange? I thought there were still ten minutes left."
However, the hands on the watch did point to the end of get out of class. When he thought that he was not teaching his own students, Fujitaka gave up the idea of staying after class.
"I'm sorry that I haven't told you all the details, but since the time is up, I'll stop here today. Thank you for listening to my story."
Fujitaka stopped teaching and bowed slightly to the elementary school students in the audience, then began to pack up the various reference items he had brought with him.
The primary school students below also clapped politely, especially Taoist Priest Li, who was very interested in archaeology. He stood up and clapped vigorously with a serious look on his face.
Xia Yu, who was sitting next to Li Xiaolang, was speechless. Even if Teng Long's story was really good, couldn't the applause be a little quieter? It made his ears hurt.
How can I put it? In the early days, Master Li was really honest.
When Fujitaka finished greeting the school leaders and the students in the audience began to leave their seats, Li Xiaolang seized the opportunity and hurried over to Fujitaka.
It seemed that he was not satisfied with just listening to the class and wanted to ask some more questions.
"Student Li really likes archaeology."
Offstage, Sakura looked at Li Syaoran who ran up to her father to ask questions and couldn't help but smile: "I thought archaeology was a difficult subject at first, but I didn't expect it to actually sound quite interesting."
"That's because Sakura's father is amazing." Tomoyo, who was sitting next to Sakura, nodded and praised, "Even I have become interested in archaeology."
"Yeah?"
When Sakura heard this, the smile on her face widened. After all, everyone liked her father, so it was natural for her to be happy.
At this moment, Xia Yu, who was sitting in the back row, suddenly poked his head out: "Zhi Shi is right, uncle's narration itself is very impressive, but Xiao Lang's interest in archaeology may also be the influence of the parallel world."
"Parallel world?"
Hearing this word, Sakura and Tomoyo turned their heads curiously, wanting to hear what Xia Yu meant.
"Yes, it is a parallel world. Maybe in other worlds, Li Xiaolang's time and space counterpart is an archaeologist."
After finishing speaking, Xia Yu looked at Xiaoying and smiled: "Besides that, maybe in another world, Xiaoying is still a princess."
"Princess?"
After hearing what Xia Yu said, Sakura couldn't help but fantasize about how happy she would be if she was really a princess in a parallel world.
However, Sakura didn't know that as a princess in the parallel world, she was not happy and even felt miserable.
Xia Yu was indeed not talking nonsense just now. In the parallel universe of the Tsubasa Chronicle, Li Syaoran was an archaeologist from the country of Jiulou, and Xiaoying was the princess of the country of Jiulou. The two had been childhood sweethearts since they were young.
But whether it is the archaeologist Li Syaoran or the princess Sakura, their fate is quite miserable.
As sweet as Wolf Sakura in Cardcaptor Sakura's world is, as miserable as Wolf Sakura in Tsubasa Chronicle.
In short, all of this is Kuro's fault.
While Sakura and the others were chatting, Syaoran seemed to have finished his conversation as well.
Sakura noticed her father was looking at her and waved him hello, but at the same time she noticed Syaoran's glare at her.
"Forehead……"
Feeling Syaoran's gaze, Xiaoying's body stiffened a little. She remembered that she hadn't spoken to Li just now, so why was Li glaring at her again?
Time passed slowly, and today ended uneventfully.
Or maybe it’s not that ordinary. After all, every ordinary daily life we experience may be a series of miracles.
In the early morning, the bell rang.
The next day, dawn.
Today is unusual because I have an exam in music class, and the exam is on recorder.
In the music classroom, the teacher played the piano accompaniment while the students performed on stage.
The tender flute sound combined with the melodious piano music complement each other.
Soon, with the cooperation of the music teacher, one student after another finished the exam. As long as the sound of the flute was not too out of tune and they could blow the recorder like a suona or Squidward's recorder, they could basically pass the exam.
"Xia, it's your turn."
"good!"
When Xia Yu heard that it was his turn to take the music exam, he was not timid. He stood in front of the stage with confidence and played the recorder in his hand with the accompaniment of the teacher's piano.
In an instant, a melodious recorder sound was heard, which formed a sharp contrast with the stumbling recorder sounds of other students before. Even the teacher couldn't help but show a hint of surprise.
Feeling the admiration and surprise of other classmates, Xia Yu sighed in his heart.
Alas, the joy of cheating is often so plain and boring.
Although he had not been learning for a long time, he could use his sunshine points to buy recorder-related skills in the system mall.
And you don’t need to buy it directly to become a master, you just need to master it.
Ordinary skills like these are quite cheap in the system mall, and many of them are priced in single digits, so he won't be too fussy.
Moreover, by performing in front of other people, his sunshine value will also increase, so this wave is not a loss at all, but a profit.
It's just like Qin Shi Huang touching the electric wire - he's totally defeated.
"Wow, I didn't expect Xia to be so amazing."
Listening to Xia Yu's recorder, Xiaoying couldn't help but exclaimed, with admiration in her eyes.
"Yeah." Zhi Shi nodded in admiration: "I really don't know what else Xia can't do."
Li Xiaolang, who was sitting in the corner, heard Xia Yu's recorder. His originally calm face suddenly froze. He couldn't help but take out his recorder and then quietly practiced the fingering.
After the song was over, the music teacher clapped gently. Hearing the applause, the other students also reacted and applauded.
Suddenly, something that had never happened before happened in the classroom: applause for the performers.
Xia Yu didn't say anything out of social phobia, he just bowed slightly and walked off the stage. After all, it was an exam, so he just had to endure it, he had made a profit anyway.
"The next one is Kinomoto-san."
After Xia Yu sat back in his seat, the teacher looked at the list and called his name again.
"yes!"
Seeing Sakura's flustered response, the teacher smiled gently and gave her an encouraging smile.
But even so, Sakura was still very nervous and had a hard time walking, so she just turned the other way and walked directly to the podium.
When the exam started, as expected, Sakura made a mistake in a syllable because she was too nervous, but the teacher did not blame her. Instead, he gave her some gentle encouragement.
After all, it's just one , and the overall result is still okay.
After a while, the music class ended.
Today, apart from the recorder test in music class, there were no other exams, so after finishing the daily classes, the day ended.
But there were club activities in the afternoon, so not all students went home.
At this time, the boys who stayed in school were playing football in the playground, while the girls were sitting on the stairs chatting. The air was filled with youthful vitality.
Sakura sat on the stairs, holding a gymnastics stick as a recorder, and couldn't help crying, "I made a weird sound, wuwuwu..."
Tomoyo at the side consoled him, "But Sakura is very good at other things."
"That's because I practiced before." After saying that, Sakura said with admiration, "But Tomoyo is just as good as Xia, both of them play perfectly. Compared with you, it feels like they are playing different songs."
After saying this, Sakura was a little dejected: "I should practice more."
Just at this moment, the sound of a recorder suddenly came from afar.
Tomoyo and Sakura looked up at the same time, and saw Li Syaoran walking forward at the top of the stairs, playing the recorder with his schoolbag on his back.
It looked like he was going home, but he was practicing playing the recorder even on the way home. He was really hardworking.
"The exam is over, but Student Li is still practicing." Sakura was a little surprised.
"Maybe today's results were not satisfactory." Tomoyo guessed, "But it's dangerous to blow while walking. It would be bad if you accidentally fall."
"By the way, Chise, did Li move here from Hong Kong alone? I didn't even meet his parents during the sports meet."
Sakura looked at Li Xiaolang standing alone and felt a little curious, as she had never seen Li Xiaolang's parents pick him up from school.
Hearing this, Zhishi thought for a moment and said, "That's right. I've never heard him mention his family. Could it be that he is the same as Xia..."
"Uh... shouldn't it be?"
Sakura's eyes twitched when she heard that. It seemed a bit rude to talk about the other person's parents behind their back.
"Danger!"
Suddenly, a scream came from the playground where people were playing football. The black and white football was kicked hard by someone and flew towards Li Xiaolang.
If nothing unexpected happened, the football would have hit Li Xiaolang directly in the face, causing him to be slightly disfigured.
But obviously, as expected, something unexpected happened.
Seeing that the football was about to hit the ball, the little wolf who was playing the flute glanced, leaped up suddenly, and kicked the football with a flying foot.
In an instant, the football flew back at an even faster speed, spinning straight into the net, and even the goalkeeper didn't have time to react.
After the football fell and bounced twice, the goalkeeper belatedly looked down at the football.
"Student Li, good kick."
Takashi Yamazaki on the court praised and led the applause, and the originally quiet playground also broke out into warm applause.
Hearing the applause, the little wolf scratched his head with the recorder and smiled proudly.
When the applause died down, Yamazaki Takashi touched Xia Yu, who was playing football with him, and exclaimed: "I didn't expect that Li was such a good football player. You Chinese football players must be really good."
Xia Yu: (.￣□￣)
Ah, this...
How should he tell the truth?
After thinking about it, Xia Yu decided to tell the truth. After all, he was a good boy who would not lie.
"That's right, our football and table tennis can both be described in one sentence: one can't beat anyone, the other can't beat anyone."
"Oh, that's really impressive! But why did you repeat the same thing twice, Xia?"
"Guess~"
…
The daytime always passes quickly, and another ordinary day comes to an end.
At night, the sky is dim, with only the stars emitting soft light.
Tomoeda Town also fell into a deep sleep, with only a few lights still dimly lit among the thousands of houses.
At this moment, the hands of the clock on the clock tower of Tomoeda Elementary School are about to point to midnight.
In addition to telling time for students, this clock tower is also an important reliance for the residents of Tomoeda Town, making it an indispensable building in Tomoeda Town.
However, at the moment when the pointer turned to zero, the next second did not come, but the dial strangely rotated counterclockwise, as if time had been reset.
But no one noticed this scene, and no one knew about it.
early morning.
Sakura was packing her schoolbag as Kero wailed, because the game save data that Kero had worked so hard to play was gone, meaning she had to start from scratch again.
Faced with Xiaoke's sadness, Sakura gave a few perfunctory replies. She was about to be late again and had no time to comfort Xiaoke.
Finally, amid Xiaoke's wailing of doubting life, Sakura hurried out of the house.
On the way to school, Sakura looked at a student who was practicing the recorder while walking, and couldn't help but feel a little confused. The recorder exam was over, so why were some people still practicing?
Not long after walking, Sakura saw Tomoyo and hurriedly chased after her, then walked towards the school with Tomoyo.
"Tomoyo, it seems that not only Li is working hard, but everyone else is also working very hard. I can't fall behind."
After walking for a while, listening to the sound of the recorder coming from time to time, Sakura clenched her fists to encourage herself.
"Um?"
Just hearing this, Tomoyo was a little confused: "Sakura, what are you talking about?"
"A recorder."
Sakura didn't think too much about it and casually replied. Tomoyo nodded in understanding: "That's right, let's work hard on the flute test today."
"Huh?"
Seeing Chiyo saying this, Sakura was a little confused. Didn't the flute exam end yesterday? Was there another exam today?
However, although she was confused, Sakura did not ask any further questions because she had already arrived at school and was about to start class.
But soon, Sakura realized something was wrong. Why was today's class exactly the same as yesterday's, and even the content of the lecture had not changed?
