Chapter 348 Another companion joins us

Early morning, school day.

"Good morning~"

Sakura happily opened the back door of the classroom and walked happily to her seat while greeting everyone.

This overflowing happiness made the person who responded to the greeting raise the corners of his mouth unconsciously, and his mood became even happier.

After Sakura sat back in her seat, Tomoyo looked over with a smile and asked curiously, "Did anything good happen this morning?"

"what?"

Sakura turned her head blankly when she was asked the question, and asked embarrassedly: "Is it obvious?"

"Because Sakura is someone who can't hide what's on her mind."

Hearing this, Sakura giggled, reached into her bag, took out a calendar, and showed it to Tomoyo.

"Dad said this is the calendar Mom used, and it records a lot of memorable things."

"I see."

"Speaking of the calendar..."

Just as Tomoyo and Sakura finished their conversation, Yamazaki came over and said seriously, "It used to be drawn on the ground, but if it is written on the soil, it will disappear in the wind and rain."

"Also, if a cat or dog passed by, they would leave footprints that would make the writing unclear. So, in order to prevent the calendar from disappearing, a profession called calendar monitors emerged."

Tomoyo just listened to Yamazaki's nonsense with a smile, while Syaoran and Sakura looked serious, as if they had heard some new knowledge.

After saying that, Yamazaki tilted his head slightly and looked at Xia Yu behind Tomoyo. Although his eyes were squinting, Xia Yu seemed to understand what Yamazaki meant from his gaze.

It's up to you now.

I know.

Xia Yu gave him an understanding look, coughed lightly and said, "I've also seen what Yamazaki just said in an ancient book. It is said that the power of the almanac monitor is very great, and they usually have to go through very arduous trials, such as pushing a huge round stone to the top of a mountain. The most famous trialist seems to be called Sisyphus."

Hearing Xia Yu's cooperation, Yamazaki smiled even more and said, "Moreover, the time span during the trial is very long. Some people have not been able to complete the trial in their entire lives."

Not far away, watching Yamazaki and Xia Yu working together to fool the only two people in the class who would believe them, Chiharu couldn't help but sigh in exhaustion.

"Really? When will Sakura and Lee realize that all this is fake?"

Naoko, who was standing by, smiled and said, "Even if it's fake, it still sounds interesting."

"Good morning."

Suddenly, a greeting was heard, and Elliot walked in from the back door with his schoolbag on his back. When Li Xiaolang saw Elliot, he immediately glared at him, while the others responded with greetings.

Yamazaki, who had just finished his trick, saw Elio appear and said with a smile: "Hiiragi, you have heard about the history of the calendar, right?"

"here we go again……"

Seeing this, Chiharu helplessly shouted to Yamazaki, "Hey, Hiiragi-san is different from you. He is a serious person."

But just as Chiharu said this, Elio smiled and replied, "You know a lot."

"Eh?"

Seeing this scene, Qianchun was dumbfounded. This reaction...why was it wrong?

Seeing Qianchun's dumbfounded look, Xia Yu laughed in his heart and wanted to ask, "What gave you the illusion that Elio was a serious person?"

People who wear glasses and smile are all black-bellied people without exception...

wrong.

It seems that Yukito and Fujitaka also fit this description, but they are not evil...

Damn, this law doesn't apply in this world.

Xia Yu was thinking about it, while Elio took over Yamazaki's words and continued to fool people. "Although it requires a tough test, in ancient Europe, calendar monitors were also a popular profession."

"So anyone who mischievously destroys the calendar will be severely punished."

"Yes, there are many records of events and disputes regarding the calendar in history."

"The most famous one is probably about the event written on the Egyptian calendar which is 100 kilometers long."

"That must be the work of aliens."

Feeling this evenly matched give and take, Yamazaki became even more satisfied. Finally, in addition to Xia Yu, he once again found a like-minded companion.

“Welcome to join us.”

Yamazaki smiled and extended his hand to Elio, and Elio also extended his hand to shake his.

"I am very honored."

"Xia Yu, it seems that new companions have joined us." After shaking hands with Elio, Yamazaki patted Xia Yu on the shoulder, looking very happy.

"It's quite interesting after all." After being patted by Yamazaki, Xia Yu came back to his senses and looked at Elio. After noticing it, Elio smiled back.

"I never thought that Hiiragi-san is also this type of person. He looks so serious."

Looking at the trio that had suddenly established a strange friendship, Chiharu subconsciously complained, and Naoko, who was standing beside her, chuckled when she heard it.

"That's why life is full of surprises. Before Xia and Hiiragi came, did you ever think that Yamazaki would meet someone of the same type as him?"

"That's true, but I don't think it's a surprise."

"But for Yamazaki-san, it was a surprise."

Apart from Chiharu and the others who were chatting, Sakura and Li Syaoran were the only two people in the class who believed in these lies and felt a little emotional at the same time.

“People in the past had a really hard time.”

"Well, it's a good thing we were born in this era."

Dashing~dashing~deng~deng~
The morning incident passed quickly as the school bell rang.

Noon, lunch break.

"Is your great-grandfather's birthday today?"

"Yes, but I don't know what gift to give him."

"A gift..."

In the classroom, Tomoyo turned around and was chatting with Xia Yu about his troubles.

Today is her mother's grandfather, her great-grandfather's birthday, but she doesn't know what gift to give.

"The gift may be small, but the sentiment is great. As a young person, as long as you have the heart, it's enough. You don't need a complicated gift."

While answering Zhishi, Xia Yu's thoughts subconsciously diverged. Zhishi's great-grandfather...that was his aunt's grandfather. It must be said that the old man was really long-lived.

"Tomoyo, do you think I should give my great-grandfather a gift as well?"

"Huh? Why?"

"Haven't you already said that? I'm not an outsider. Since he's your great-grandfather, he's also my great-grandfather. It's not strange for the younger generation to give gifts to the elders when they celebrate their birthdays."

Zhishi was stunned when he heard this, then smiled and said, "Could it be that Xia Jun wants to announce to my family that we are already together?"

"Well, no hurry."

Xia Yu coughed lightly, thought for a moment and said, "It's not that I can't tell you. Let me prepare first. I just thought I should tell my great-grandfather first. After all, compared to my parents, the elderly are more..."

As Xia Yu spoke, his voice became softer again. It seemed that it was this old man who was against Fujitaka and Nadeshiko being together in the first place. His situation as a single person didn't seem to be much better than Fujitaka's.
