Chapter 155 Another Self

A few minutes later, Xia Yu was holding a lollipop in his mouth again, walking back while thinking about the scene he had just seen. No matter how he looked at it, it was Sakura's appearance.

There can't be a so-called doppelganger in the world, right? That's too weird.

He learned this from the animation "Tanaka-kun is Always So Lazy". Legend has it that when a person sees another self appear in front of him, it means that his life is coming to an end.

Well... it's definitely impossible. This world is not some weird world. Since such a strange phenomenon has appeared, maybe it's the Clow Cards causing trouble again.

But...is there such a Clow Card in the Clow Cards?

Xia Yu recalled his already vague memory. This kind of Clow Card that copied another person... could it be a double card?

But he vaguely remembered that the time he subdued Shuangpai was when Meiling returned to China. According to the current time point, it is still a long time before Meiling returns to China.

Mimic? Transfiguration? Mirror? Reflection?
"Tsk, it's a miracle if you can guess this."

Xia Yu lightly clicked his tongue and shook his head. He had no foresight, so how could he possibly guess it just by casually guessing?

It would be okay if Sakura were asked to guess. After all, with Sakura's sensitivity to the Clow Cards, when she sees the Clow Cards with her own eyes, she might be able to guess the true identity of the Clow Cards based on that mysterious connection.

"It's a pity that I didn't take a picture of it, otherwise I could have let Sakura see it for herself."

The unexpected scene just now was so shocking that he was stunned for a moment and even forgot to take a picture of it. It was such a pity.

[Master, I took a picture of it! ]

"!"

Xia Yu was shocked and asked hurriedly: "Really?"

[Really! Master, you can completely trust Xiao Xi's judgment! ]

"Tsk, it's you indeed!"

As expected of a system that has been with him for such a long time, it really understands his thoughts.

"Now that we've filmed it, let's import the video into the camera and show it to Tomoyo and Sakura tomorrow."

【receive! 】

【】

……

The autumn sun is shining brightly, and the air is fresh and clear.

Late autumn has arrived, and the trees that serve as the landscape have lost their summer green and have turned yellow and dry.

Xia Yu arrived at the school classroom early as usual, and then waited idly for the bell to ring.

After a while, more people came into the classroom, and Sakura and Tomoyo both walked into the classroom, and it seemed that they met by chance again.

"Sakura, Tomoyo, good morning."

When Xia Yu saw the two people walking into the classroom, he waved and greeted them.

"Morning~"

"Good morning."

Sakura responded to the greeting with her usual energy, while Tomoyo folded her hands in front of her, nodded slightly, and said good morning politely.

Xia Yu was used to Tomoyo's polite and honorific responses. After all, Tomoyo was like this to everyone, always maintaining impeccable politeness no matter when and where, even when facing Sakura.

"Huh? Sakura, you got your hair cut?"

When Xiaoying came closer, Xia Yu, who wanted to tell Xiaoying what happened yesterday, paused slightly and suddenly asked.

Although Sakura's hairstyle has not changed at all, the hair on the edges is shorter, about one or two centimeters shorter. It is hard to see if you don't look closely.

"Hmm! I didn't expect that you, Xia, saw it just as well as Tomoyo. It turns out that Xiao Ke didn't observe carefully enough."

Sakura nodded and put her hands on her face, saying shyly, "This was cut for me by Snow Rabbit yesterday."

"Then his craftsmanship is pretty good."

After all, being able to cut the hair so that it looks like it hasn’t been cut, but upon closer inspection it is cut, is something that not everyone can do.

"Hehe, maybe it's because Yukito-kun cuts too much, because he often helps my brother cut his hair." Sakura guessed.

Yesterday, when Xuetu was cutting her brother's hair, he also cut her hair.

"Um, Sakura..."

Just then, Qianchun and others suddenly came over with troubled expressions.

"What's wrong?"

Realizing that some of her friends seemed to have something to ask her, Sakura bent her head in confusion.

Seeing that Sakura seemed to have no idea what was going on, Chiharu and the others looked at each other, and it was Chiharu who asked the question.

"Xiaoying, did you go to the stationery store yesterday?"

"Huh? No."

Sakura shook her head in confusion: "I went to the supermarket to buy pasta yesterday and have been staying at home since then."

After getting Sakura's exact answer, Chiharu breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the others happily and said, "It's not Sakura after all. I knew Sakura wouldn't do that kind of thing."

"What did you see yesterday?"

Xia Yu asked, judging from the situation, it seemed that he was not the only one who saw that strange Sakura yesterday.

"We saw a girl who looked a lot like Sakura doing something bad yesterday."

Naoko recalled what she saw yesterday and continued, "That girl ran into the stationery store and knocked down the shelves. She seemed very happy."

"Like me?"

Sakura frowned slightly. There was a girl who looked very much like her doing bad things, and Chiharu and the others thought that girl was her?

This seems terrible. What if other people also mistake that girl for her?
"Speaking of this, I saw it yesterday too." Xia Yu suddenly spoke, attracting the attention of others.

"Yesterday I saw that girl snatch a kid's lollipop, and she seemed very happy."

"What? Stealing a kid's lollipop?"

“So nasty.”

"This is something only delinquents would do."

"Will a bad guy steal a kid's lollipop? Bad guys should steal money, right?"

Faced with the topic that seemed to have gone off track, Xiaoying did not interrupt, but looked at Xia Yu nervously and asked: "Xia classmate, does that girl really look like me? Did you recognize the wrong one too?"

Dashing~dashing~deng~deng~
Before Xia Yu could answer, the class bell suddenly rang.

When they heard the bell, Qianchun and the others stopped talking and hurried to their seats.

Xia Yu also gave up the idea of ​​taking out the camera and said, "Let's go to class first. I'll tell you during lunch break."

Hearing this, Sakura had to suppress the uneasiness in her heart.

Classmate Xia is right. Compared to that girl who looks so much like her, attending class is more important.

But having said that, Sakura couldn't help but let her thoughts drift away during class, thinking back to what Chiharu and the others had said. After all, a bad kid who looked very much like her suddenly appeared, and no one could calm down for a while.

The agonizing morning passed quickly.

Xiaoying, who had been thinking about this matter all the time, finally waited until the lunch break, and then she dragged Xia Yu and Zhi Shi to the quiet side of the teaching building, which was the lawn where they would occasionally eat lunch. "Xia classmate, can you tell me now?"

As soon as they arrived at this quiet place with few students, Xiaoying couldn't even wait to take out lunch from her schoolbag, and hurriedly asked Xia Yu.

"Okay, okay, but don't be surprised later."

Seeing Xiaoying so anxious, Xia Yu didn't keep her in suspense, but reached into his bag and took out a camera.

Although they didn't know what Xia Yu was going to do when he suddenly took out the camera, Sakura and Tomoyo still came over, and the three little heads were crowded together looking at the camera's playback screen.

On the screen, a girl wearing a yellow long-sleeved shirt and a red rabbit-ear hat snatched a lollipop from a little boy, raised her hand arrogantly and waved it, then left with a big laugh.

The picture is not particularly clear, but you can still see the girl's arrogant smile. It seems that snatching a child's lollipop is a very happy thing for the girl.

(._.≡°д°)
Xiaoying first looked carefully at the girl on the screen, then looked at Xia Yu in disbelief, and stammered.

"Xia...Xia classmate, this...this video..."

"Yes, this was taken when the girl was snatching the lollipop. There is no Photoshop yet... No, it seems to have been Photoshopped now..."

Xia Yu paused. He remembered that the earliest version of Ps was released in 1990. Although it was only released on Mac and its size was only about 800KB, it was there anyway.

Besides, it is now 1998 and Adobe Photoshop version 5.0 has been released, so it seems that this statement cannot be made.

After thinking for a while, Xia Yu said again: "Not yet... No... Forget it, this video is not fake, it is real."

Damn it, he couldn't imagine that there is nothing now, but in this era, even Pr has it.

After hearing Xia Yu personally admit that the video was real, Xiaoying couldn't think of what expression to use, because she found that the girl in the video not only looked exactly like her, but even wore exactly the same clothes.

That was the clothes she wore when she went out to buy groceries yesterday. No wonder Chiharu and the others made a mistake!
"Who...who is this girl?"

Xiaoying suddenly felt a chill all around her. Could it be that she had a twin sister that she didn't know about? But her father hadn't told her about this either.

"Maybe it's the Clow Cards."

Xia Yu put away his camera and expressed his guess.

"After all, there are so many Clow Cards, and according to past experience, if there is any strange phenomenon in this place, it is absolutely right to guess that it is the Clow Cards."

"Is it the Clow Card again? Xia, do you know what the Clow Card is? I'm going to seal it!"

Sakura was a little angry. Using her face to do bad things would ruin her reputation. How could this Clow Card be so bad!
Clow Cards like this that like to do bad things should be sealed up quickly!

"I am not sure."

Xia Yu shook his head and replied, "But if it can completely imitate a person's appearance, there are only a few ways to guess. Imitation, deformation, mirror, reflection are all possible. You can go back and ask Xiao Ke, isn't it a sealed beast from the Clow Cards? I'm sure you can guess it."

"Yeah, I can also ask Xiaoke." Sakura clapped her hands, suddenly realizing.

"Thank you so much, Xia. If it weren't for you, I might not even know about this."

After thinking of a solution, Sakura nodded gratefully to Xia Yu. If Xia Yu hadn't given her advice and shown her the video, she might have had to wait until she saw another self with her own eyes before she could guess what was on the Clow Card.

"It's just a small favor, no need to be polite."

Xia Yu waved his hand first, then chuckled and said, "We are comrades-in-arms."

"Hehe, even so I still want to thank you." Sakura smiled foolishly. Although classmate Xia was weird sometimes, he always gave her a lot of help when it was important.

Classmate Li seems to be the same, but unlike Classmate Xia, Classmate Li is the type of person who appears cold on the outside but is warm on the inside.

After learning that the other version of herself who did bad things was most likely a Clow Card, Sakura's depression dissipated.

If it was a Clow Card, there would be nothing to be afraid of, after all, she is a Clow Card magician.

The lunch break passed slowly, and soon the three of them finished their meal.

Xia Yu walked in front carrying a schoolbag, while Tomoyo and Sakura walked side by side behind.

Seeing that Tomoyo seemed to be thinking about something, Sakura asked curiously: "Tomoyo, are you worried about something? You didn't seem to say much this afternoon."

After all, in the past, when it came to things like this that concerned her, Chise was usually the most active.

But today, Chise was unusually quiet.

Hearing Sakura's question, Tomoyo came back to his senses and shook his head gently, then smiled and said, "I'm sorry to make you worry, I'm fine."

"Really? If Chise has something on your mind, please tell me."

"I will, Sakura."

Chishi smiled sweetly. She really had nothing on her mind. She was just thinking about a problem.

She was wondering where Xia's video came from. It was as if there was an elf who was helping Xia shoot the video, and only Xia could see it.

She had this doubt when her classmate Xia suddenly handed her the battle video of Sakura when she turned smaller not long ago. She was with classmate Xia at the time, and she neither saw him take out the camera nor leave.

But after a few days, Xia suddenly took out the video he had shot, as if someone had helped him shoot it.

At that time, she was so excited about getting Sakura's video that she forgot to ask where the video came from. After watching the video just now, her doubts became even greater.

Unless classmate Xia had foresight, it would be unlikely that he would have filmed the entire scene from beginning to end. After all, judging from the picture, the girl who looked like Sakura snatching the child's lollipop should have been a sudden incident.

The video was so complete that it seemed as if someone had filmed it in advance and then handed it to Xia.

Is there really an invisible photography elf beside Xia? And will it take photos in advance according to Xia's ideas?
Thinking of this possibility, Zhishi looked at Xia Yu who was walking in front of her with some envy. She also wanted to have a little elf like this.

With this little elf, her photography will be able to go a step further. I’ll find a chance to ask classmate Xia next time.

in the afternoon.

Physical education class.

"What? You said Yukito cut your hair?!"

On the playground, Li Syaoran's momentum suddenly rose, and he looked at Sakura with wide eyes.

“Oh eh—”

Sakura took a step back weakly and looked at Syaoran with some confusion. She really wanted to ask, is there any problem with this?

She was just chatting with Chise and the others when Li Xiaolang heard them. He then came over excitedly.

Looking at Sakura's weak expression, Li Syaoran didn't know why he was so excited, but he was very unhappy.

"Eh? What are you doing? Who is the snow rabbit you mentioned, little wolf?"

Hearing the conversation here, Li Meiling suddenly came over and asked Li Xiaolang curiously.

"I……"

After being interrupted by Mei Ling, Li Xiaolang suddenly lost his momentum and stammered, not knowing how to respond.

But soon, he ignored Meiling's question, looked at Sakura again, and said excitedly: "I want to duel with you!"

"Eh? Duel?!"

Sakura quickly waved her hands to refuse, saying, "I can't do that. Why do we have to duel? And what can we duel about?"

"Speaking of duels, do you know anything?"

At this moment, the big liar Yamazaki suddenly came over and said with a smile: "It is said that badminton is the orthodox duel method passed down from the ancient Roman era. Today's physical education class happens to be badminton training. How about using badminton to decide the winner?"

"This one……"

Sakura hesitated for a moment, but Li Syaoran nodded without hesitation, then looked at Sakura with full fighting spirit.
