Chapter 136: Definitely the Clow Cards
"I heard that a choir member who went home late yesterday went back to the music classroom to get something he had forgotten. Suddenly, he heard singing coming from the classroom, but the classroom was dark and empty."
"So some people suspected that there was a ghost in the music classroom, and the singing coming out was the ghost's singing..."
The story I heard from others was not long, but under Naoko's vivid description, a little story with a hint of horror slowly unfolded, and if you listened carefully, you could feel a different kind of excitement.
Unfortunately, not everyone is willing to appreciate this little story. Sakura, who was already afraid, became even more frightened after listening to Naoko's description.
She has a strong ability to associate ideas. While Naoko was still talking, she had already automatically played the imagined scenes in her mind.
Dashing~dashing~dashing~dashing~
Suddenly, the class bell rang.
Hearing the ringtone, Naoko stopped talking with some regret. She had just finished talking and had not had time to express her thoughts.
How come class started all of a sudden? Time passed by so quickly.
Unlike Naoko, Sakura breathed a deep breath. At this moment, she suddenly discovered that the bell for class was so pleasant to the ears.
Today's lessons are the same as usual, but with a few changes.
Because I happen to have a music class today, and music class needs to be taken in the music classroom.
Sakura, who was already a little afraid of ghost stories, suddenly thought of the ghost story told by Naoko the moment she stepped into the music classroom.
It was still broad daylight, but Sakura always felt that the surroundings were eerie and she could never tell whether a ghost would appear from anywhere.
While the music teacher was playing the piano and the others were quietly enjoying the performance, Sakura was still looking around. She didn't know if it was an illusion, but she always felt that there was an indescribable feeling in the music classroom, and this feeling seemed to become more and more obvious with the sound of the teacher's piano.
"Sakura, are you still afraid?" Seeing Sakura's timid look, Tomoyo, who was sitting next to Sakura, asked softly.
Hearing this, Sakura frowned and nodded: "Tomoyo, do you know about this?"
"I heard about it, but I thought you might be scared, so I didn't tell you."
Hearing that even Tomoyo had heard it, Sakura became even more frightened and couldn't help but shrink back inwards, even ignoring the teacher's beautiful piano music.
When the song was finished, there was continuous applause in the classroom.
At this moment, the strange feeling seemed to reach its peak, and Sakura, who was originally still afraid, couldn't help but forget about being afraid.
Seeing that Sakura suddenly froze in her seat, Tomoyo asked in confusion: "What's wrong, Sakura?"
"I have a strange feeling that this classroom..."
"Did you find it too?"
At this moment, Li Xiaolang, who was sitting behind Xiaoying, suddenly spoke up. He opened his eyes with a serious expression and said firmly, "There really is something strange in this classroom."
After hearing what Li Xiaolang said, Xiaoying felt the strange feeling again. It was very familiar, just like...
"The Clow Cards? The Clow Cards again?"
"It's not too clear yet, but we can't rule out the possibility that it's a ghost." Li Xiaolang shook his head. It was a pity that it was class time now, otherwise he could take out the compass to investigate.
"ghost……"
Seeing that Li Syaoran did not deny that he was a ghost, Sakura's eyes became moist and she was so scared that she almost cried.
"Don't worry, this is definitely a Clow Card."
Seeing Sakura's frightened look, Xia Yu also spoke. He sat behind Tomoyo and was a classmate of Li Syaoran.
The seating arrangement in the music classroom was the same as that in their classroom, except that two people shared a desk, so Li Xiaolang became his deskmate.
Perhaps this is also the reason why Li Meiling dislikes him. After all, in Li Meiling's opinion, the position next to Xiaolang can only belong to her.
But Xia Yu didn't want to change seats, and Li Meiling couldn't do anything even if she was unhappy. "Is it definitely the Clow Cards?"
Hearing Xia Yu's confident words, Xiaoying asked back weakly.
"Of course, Sakura, you have to believe in materialism. Ghosts... do... still exist."
As Xia Yu spoke, his voice became weaker. He wanted to say that ghosts did not exist, but when he thought that there were souls in this world, then ghosts might also exist, so he hesitated again.
"Woooooooo..."
Hearing that Xia Yu's tone was no longer firm, Xiaoying silently shed tears in her heart.
"But this time it's definitely a Clow Card, definitely not a ghost." Xia Yu suddenly changed the subject and confirmed again.
"Why are you so sure?"
Li Xiaolang looked at Xia Yu with some doubt. He and Xiaoying could only vaguely sense it, so how could this guy be so sure? Could it be that this guy's perception was stronger than his and Xiaoying's?
"Because you and Sakura can both feel a strange feeling, it must be the Clow Cards." Xia Yu's tone was casual, and the answer he gave was also quite casual.
"What do you mean?"
Obviously, Li Xiaolang didn't quite understand. Seeing this, Xia Yu sighed and explained, "Xiaoying is the girl of destiny who is favored by fate and the protagonist that attracts the attention of the world. So this abnormal incident is definitely not a ghost, but a Clow Card."
"..."
Is there any necessary logical relationship here?
Li Xiaolang sighed helplessly. He had thought that Xia Yu, as a magician like them, must have something profound to say since he was so certain that this was a Clow Card. He didn't expect that he would say such boring words.
He was naive. He knew clearly that this person was unreliable, but he still had expectations for him.
"Let's investigate. It's useless to talk about this now."
"Huh? When?"
When Sakura heard Syaoran say he wanted to investigate, she felt something was wrong again.
"When else? Of course at night."
Sakura couldn't help but shudder when she heard this, she knew that when it came to the investigation, it would have to be at night.
Because there would be no one in school only at night, just like when she was collecting the Shadow Cards last semester, she also waited until night to come to school to investigate the Clow Cards.
But...school at night is so scary!
Why did the Clow Cards appear at night, and at school night at that!
Sakura couldn't help crying when she thought about the possible existence of scary ghosts.
"Don't be afraid, Sakura. Xia and I will go with you."
Looking at Sakura's pitiful expression, Tomoyo narrowed his eyes and smiled, speaking softly.
"Tomoyo..."
Sakura was touched, but the next second, Tomoyo suddenly grabbed Sakura's hand and held it in his, his eyes opened, as if shining.
"So Sakura, you must come tonight. I will be sewing your new uniform soon!"
Sakura: 〒▽〒
She knew it.
