Chapter 215 Searching
As time passed, Li Meiling's mind was full of thoughts. She guessed all kinds of answers she could think of, but none of them were correct.
Looking at Li Meiling still guessing there without giving up, Xia Yu was speechless. He didn't expect that his words would come true. A careless remark turned out to be a prophecy and came true.
Li Meiling was really stuck at the first level and hasn't solved this simple brain teaser until now.
"Are you really going to just watch and not help? That's really boring."
After looking at the troubled Li Meiling for a while, Xia Yu poked Li Xiaolang beside him and casually spoke to him.
Li Xiaolang: “…”
You are even more boring, and you have managed to see this moment.
Li Xiaolang didn't want to talk to boring people, so he snorted and turned his head away, choosing to ignore Xia Yu.
Seeing this, Xia Yu curled his lips and stood up. Forget it, I'd better go find Zhishi. These two people are too boring.
However, he had just returned to the square when a familiar luxury car suddenly appeared from the end of the street. It seemed that Tomoyo had returned.
This also made Xia Yu change his actions and he turned to walk towards where the luxury car was parked. Since Zhishi had returned, there was no need to look for him anymore.
"Hey, Tomoyo, why did you come back suddenly? Did Sakura already collect ten seals for the riddle?"
Seeing Zhishi getting out of the car, Xia Yu walked forward and waved to say hello.
On the other side, Zhishi, who had just got off the car, heard this, looked at Xia Yu who was walking over, smiled slightly and nodded.
"Yes, Sakura has collected all ten seals. It will probably be soon before Sakura finds the relief and comes back. I will come back early so that I can take pictures of Sakura's heroic return."
After finishing speaking, Zhishi looked at Xia Yu with a little confusion and asked, "But why didn't Xia come over? I thought Xia would want to shoot with me."
"That's because Li Meiling hasn't been able to solve the star puzzle, and Li Xiaolang has been just watching. I've watched them both get stuck until now. Isn't Li Xiaolang a boring person? He just kept watching and didn't help, hahahaha."
Looking at Xia Yu who was making fun of the Li brothers and sisters, Zhishi was speechless for a moment and was silenced by Xia Yu's words.
She really wanted to say that you, classmate Xia, are actually the most boring one.
After chatting for a few more sentences, Xia Yu and Tomoyo waited in the square together. According to Tomoyo's guess, Sakura would come back with Yukito soon.
Just this wait lasted until the afternoon.
The first group to come back during the period was Chiharu and Yamazaki. They won the first place without any dispute and also received the prize of the guessing contest.
Afterwards, the other groups came back one after another and took home the second and third place prizes, but Sakura and her friends were still nowhere to be found.
The days in winter are short, and it gets dark before the afternoon even lasts long.
In the blink of an eye, day turned into dusk.
The dim light shone on the street, and the crowds who came to participate in the competition or just to be the spectators left one after another.
Tomoyo stood at the intersection, looking forward to it, but still didn't see the figure he was looking forward to.
She hesitated for a while, and couldn't help but come to Xia Yu's side and said, "Xia classmate, Xiaoying and the others didn't have any accidents, did they? It's so late and they haven't come back yet."
"possible."
Xia Yu nodded. It had been such a long time since he came back, it was impossible that he had forgotten about the guessing contest. However, Li Xiaolang had not made any movement, so he probably had not encountered the Clow Cards.
But if it wasn't for the Clow Cards, what else would have stopped him?
After thinking for a few seconds, Xia Yu sighed lightly, having no idea at all.
"Well, should we go look for Sakura?" Tomoyo thought for a moment and suddenly suggested.
Although it is only dusk, the moon can be seen hanging in the sky. Today's moon is a rare full moon without a single gap.
It will probably be completely dark in a few minutes, and it will be even harder to find Sakura and the others. "That's right, let's go look for them first. It would be best if nothing happens, but we can help if something unexpected happens."
"Who are you going to find?"
Just when Xia Yu and Zhishi had made their decision, Li Xiaolang seemed to have heard their conversation and suddenly came over.
"Eh? Li, why are you…"
Tomoyo was slightly surprised when he saw Li Xiaolang suddenly appearing.
Facing Tomoyo's curious gaze, Li Syaoran couldn't help but turn his head away. He didn't dare to say that he came over because he just heard Sakura's name.
"We plan to go look for Sakura. They haven't come back in such a long time. We're worried that something might have happened to them."
Seeing Li Xiaolang remaining silent in response to Zhishi's question, Xia Yu held back his smile and explained.
As expected, upon hearing this, Li Xiaolang immediately said, "I'll go too."
"Oh? So do you want to go find Yukito-san? Or do you want to find Sakura-chan?"
"I……"
When this question came out, Li Xiaolang hesitated and didn't know how to answer.
Thinking back to the faces of Yukito and Sakura, he couldn't help but blush again. He was worried about both of them, but he was more worried about...
"Okay, I won't tease you anymore, let's go."
Xia Yu patted Li Xiaolang on the shoulder, interrupting his wandering thoughts, and turned around and said casually: "Aren't you going to tell Li Meiling? Are you leaving like this?"
"No, she's still solving a puzzle there. I don't think she'll be able to solve it for a while."
Li Syaoran looked back at Li Meiling who was still working hard on the puzzle, shook his head and replied, "Besides, if he really told Meiling that he was going to look for Sakura, she would probably make a fuss again."
It’s better not to tell her for now.
"Then let's set off quickly, Mr. Xia." Since there were no other questions, Tomoyo said anxiously.
"Okay, come with me."
Xia Yu shook his hand and took out his magic wand from his sleeve.
After casting a locating spell, the three of them followed the instructions of the wand and left.
Touya in the work area saw several people leaving, and thought about Sakura and Yukito who had not returned yet, and wanted to go look for them together.
But his working hours have not yet ended, and he cannot leave his workstation casually.
Thinking of this, Touya sighed slightly, looked at the sky that was about to darken, and couldn't help but mutter to himself: "It must be alright."
On the other side, the three people who were looking for Sakura did not stop, and soon they arrived at the familiar Penguin Park.
"Why did you go into the woods again?"
Xia Yu looked at the direction his wand was pointing and couldn't help but complain. At this moment, the wand was pointing straight into the woods, which meant that Sakura was inside.
"Let's go in quickly."
Seeing this scene, before Zhishi could say anything, Li Xiaolang had already spoken and urged.
Xia Yu glanced at the anxious Li Xiaolang, but did not tease him again. Li Xiaolang seemed to be really anxious, and it was not appropriate to tease him at this time.
Without hesitation, the three of them stepped into the dark forest.
