Chapter 282 Backstage Preparation
The next day, school.
Class 2, Grade 5.
Xiaoying, who was holding the script and silently reciting her lines, suddenly heard the sound of the back door of the classroom opening. She turned around and saw Xia Yu entering the classroom.
"Good morning, Xia."
Xiaoying greeted Xia Yu with full energy, but noticed that Xia Yu seemed a little listless today, so she asked with concern.
"Xia, why do you look so listless? Did something happen?"
"Good morning……"
Xia Yu responded weakly, then silently sat back in his seat and leaned on the table.
After sighing deeply, he looked up at Sakura and said, "It's nothing, I just finally understand your feelings, Sakura. You've been having a hard time."
"Huh?"
After saying such an unclear statement, Xia Yu did not explain further. After all, this matter was really difficult to talk about.
Yesterday, after he changed into the princess dress that Tomoyo sewed for him, Tomoyo pulled him aside to take pictures and record videos. It was almost dark when Tomoyo let him go reluctantly.
Although he was a little embarrassed at the beginning but let himself go later, when he thought about it before going to bed at night, he remembered that he had brought back the princess dress.
The feeling of shame that had long disappeared unexpectedly surfaced in my mind again.
Damn it, how could such a cheerful and cheerful boy have such a sense of shame? But when he thought of yesterday's scene, the shame would inevitably come back.
But I have to say, he is quite cute in a princess dress. If he puts on some light makeup, it probably won't feel out of place to think of him as a heroic girl.
stop!
I can't think about it anymore. It's impossible for him to like women's clothes, cross-dressing men or something like that. It's impossible, absolutely impossible!
On the other side, hearing Xia Yu's sudden sigh, Xiaoying was a little confused. She thought about it and asked.
"Xia, are you talking about the Clow Cards? But speaking of the Clow Cards, I did encounter a new Clow Card this morning."
"Ok?"
Hearing this, Xia Yu straightened up and asked in surprise: "Clow Card? This morning? What's the name of that Clow Card?"
Why didn't he remember that during the performance, there were other Clow Cards besides the Light and Dark Cards? Could it be that the Clow Card that appeared this morning was just one of the Light and Dark Cards?
"That Clow Card is called the Sand Card. It has the magic of controlling sand. I encountered it this morning when I was rehearsing with classmate Li."
Sakura thought about it for a moment and continued, "Then Li reminded me to use other Clow Cards to defeat that card. Now that card is in Li's hand."
"Sand cards..."
Hearing this, Xia Yu lazily lay back on the table. It was another Clow Card that he was not very familiar with. It seemed that this Sand Card was also a Clow Card that only appeared on one side.
But this card was actually obtained by this kid Li Xiaolang. That kid was quite lucky.
In this case, the remaining Clow Cards are only Light, Dark, Double, and Earth.
Once the talent show is over, there will only be two Clow Cards left.
It seems that he has to find a time to return the Clow Cards in his hand to Sakura. After all, he has to leave some time for Sakura to get familiar with the Clow Cards in his hand.
Otherwise, if he waits until the trial begins and then gives it to Sakura, Sakura will only become unfamiliar with the Clow Cards in her hand, and it will probably be more difficult to deal with the Judge Yue.
……
As the days passed, the students became more and more proficient in rehearsing the stage play.
Until one day, the long-awaited talent show finally arrived. At the school gate of Youzhi Elementary School.
Adults and children coming and going all walked towards the school, ready to enjoy the talent show of Tomoeda Elementary School.
There were students promoting the talent show at the entrance, handing out flyers to passers-by. The flyers not only indicated the holding of the talent show, but also listed the performances to be performed at the show.
At this moment, in the school auditorium.
The audience seats were already full of people who came to watch the performance, and the performing students were also preparing backstage.
"This fairy costume is actually divided into three sets: sun, moon and star. It's quite exquisite."
Xia Yu looked at the sun painted on her fairy hat and was quite satisfied. Not only did the hat have a logo, but even the tips of the wands of these fairies had corresponding logos.
Just like the wand in his hand, which happens to be a wand with a sun symbol on it.
"Xia, you seem to like this fairy costume very much."
Naoko, who was wearing a moon fairy costume, heard Xia Yu's words and looked at Xia Yu's satisfied expression. She couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckled.
"Of course. After all, the sun is so dazzling, just like me. Even if I am a fairy, I am still the fairy standing at the top."
Xia Yu waved the wand in his hand. Thanks to the fact that his usual wands were all delicate wooden sticks, he was now able to wield the sun wand with ease.
If he could use wandless casting to cast spells, he could really use this acting sun wand to perform real magic.
"Although you seem very excited, Xia, you should restrain yourself a little. You can't laugh like that during rehearsal."
Qianchun, who was also one of the fairies, saw Xia Yu's excitement and couldn't help but come over to remind him. She had not forgotten what happened when they first rehearsed.
Although it's okay to laugh a little, you can't laugh out loud every time before reciting your lines. If you do, it will be too loud and will overshadow the main character.
"Ahem, I get it. I'll try my best to control myself."
After being reminded like this, Xia Yu coughed lightly and replied seriously that it was not his fault. After all, every time when everyone was paying attention to him, he was used to starting with laughter.
It’s simple and quick, and very much in line with his sunny, boyish personality.
The three fairies here were chatting, and other characters gathered in twos and threes, some continuing to memorize their lines to deepen their memory, and some trying to act in costumes.
At this moment, Yoshiyuki Terada also came here. Although he was no longer the head teacher of this class, he would occasionally come to pay attention to the students he had taught.
Besides, there is someone in this group of people whom he cares about very much.
After looking around with a smile, Yoshiyuki Terada was slightly stunned, then he gently came to the side of Rika who was alone, bent down and whispered.
"you look pretty today."
Lijia drew the role of the queen, so she also changed into the queen's costume. Although the role she played was not a princess, she was equally beautiful.
After saying this, Terada Yoshiyuki blushed and turned his back, while Rika also blushed at the same time, looking shy.
Sakura, who had not yet changed into her costume, was helping out. When she saw something strange happening with Rika, she hurried over and asked.
"Lika, what's wrong with you? Your face is so red."
Hearing what Sakura said, Rika's face turned even redder. She waved her hands and said, "No, nothing. By the way, Sakura, why haven't you changed into your costume yet?"
"Tomoyo said she made costumes for me and Li, but she's not here yet."
As she spoke, Sakura glanced at Li Syaoran, who was frowning and crossing his arms not far away. Judging from his expression, he seemed to be very concerned about what his costume would look like.
