Chapter 430 I don’t know
The second day after school started passed with some minor incidents.

Although the unexpected thing happened that Sakura's card turned into a transparent card, Sakura was not very worried, because she had many friends around her who could help her, and she believed in everyone.

In the afternoon, school is over.

Know the family.

It was sunny outside, with not a single cloud in the sky. Although it was already afternoon, it was still early for dusk.

Just like in elementary school, their junior high school students finish school very early, basically around three or four o'clock, and there is no evening self-study or anything like that.

"This is not junior high school at all. This is no different from elementary school."

In Zhishi's room, Xia Yu was holding a cup of steaming tea, standing in front of the window, looking at the sunny sky, and sighed subconsciously.

"What do you mean there is no difference?" Sakura, who was also sipping her teacup next to her, looked over curiously when she heard this.

"Junior high school and elementary school."

Xia Yu turned around and sat back on the sofa. After school, he and Sakura went directly to Tomoyo's house because Tomoyo wanted to measure Sakura's physical data.

Due to the arrival of growth spurts, body measurements often need to be updated, otherwise the clothes made will not fit.

While Tomoyo went to get the measuring tools, he helped to make tea with ease, and went to the room with Sakura to wait for Tomoyo to come over.

After sitting back on the sofa, Xia Yu took a sip of tea and continued, "This junior high school is just like elementary school. Not only does the afternoon school dismissal time remain so early, there is not even evening self-study."

"Evening study? What is this?"

Sakura, who also sat back down on the sofa, was stunned when she heard this. It was another term she had never heard of before.

"Evening self-study is just like its name. In addition to regular classes, the school also arranges some time for concentrated self-study and homework. Evening self-study is the time to study and do homework at school at night."

At this point, Xia Yu said with a nostalgic tone: "In our place, there is only morning self-study in elementary school. In junior high school, in addition to morning self-study, there will be an evening self-study. It means that you will be in school all day and will not go home until around nine o'clock in the evening."

"Nine o'clock!?"

Sakura, who had been listening curiously, exclaimed, her eyes widened, and she said in disbelief: "Will this mean that we won't have any time for ourselves? What about club activities?"

"Club activities? We don't have clubs there. At least as far as I know, they are only available in college."

Xia Yu recalled his own personal experiences and explained to Xiaoying casually that he didn't know about other places, but at least based on his experience, he had never experienced any so-called club activities in elementary, middle and high school.

As for my own time? I can only take a moment off on weekends.

"It's so hard..."

After hearing this, Sakura murmured subconsciously, "It's too hard to be at school all day, with neither her own time nor club activities."

"It's not that hard, it's just that the system is different."

Xia Yu waved his hand. After all, every country has its own system and there is nothing to compare. Besides, although there are no morning and evening self-study classes here, various club activities cannot be ignored.

In order to improve their grades, many students will attend cram schools after school, which is equally hard.

"system?"

Sakura nodded as if she understood, but the topic became more profound as they talked. The issues concerning the system were still a little difficult for her to understand as she was a student who had just entered junior high school from elementary school.

“Sorry for the wait!!”

At this moment, the door suddenly opened and Chiyo walked in quickly with a toolbox.

After placing the tool box on the coffee table, Tomoyo reached in and took out a tape measure, looking at Sakura with sparkling eyes.

Being looked at like this, Sakura smiled awkwardly, put down the teacup in her hand, walked over, and raised her hands to let Tomoyo measure it carefully.

She had experienced this familiar scene many times and had long been accustomed to it. Who knows, this scene might continue until she grows up.

It wasn't long before the measurements were recorded.

Holding the notebook in his hand, Tomoyo looked at Sakura with a smile and said, "Sakura, when the new clothes are ready, you must try them on!"

"Uh-huh!"

"What about me? I have my share, too."

Xiaoke, who had been talking nonstop since arriving at Zhishi's house, quickly swallowed the snack in his mouth when he heard this, flew to Zhishi, clenched his fists, and asked excitedly.

"I will definitely not forget you."

Without waiting for Zhishi's answer, Xia Yu stood up, walked over and picked up Xiao Ke, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, the leftover scraps after Xiaoying's clothes are made will definitely be given to you."

"What!?"

As soon as these words came out, Xiao Ke glared at him fiercely: "What do you mean by that? What do you mean by scraps?"

“That’s what it means.”

Xia Yu chuckled and said, "When you make clothes, there will be some unused small materials left over. You can sew something with those materials to make your outfit. Otherwise, where do you think you got those small decorations from before?"

Hearing this, Xiao Ke was struck by lightning, and the whole person seemed to be petrified. After a few seconds, it drooped its body with tears in the corners of its eyes, and turned its head pitifully to look at Zhi Shi and asked: "Zhi Shi, is what this kid said true? Was the costume you gave me before really made of leftover scraps?"

"..."

Zhishi first glared at Xia Yu, then looked at Xiaoke and shook his head gently, "How could that be? Xiaoke, don't listen to Xia Jun's nonsense. He is just like that. He is teasing you."

"really?"

"Really? Don't you even believe me?"

Hearing this, Xiao Ke struggled to free himself from Xia Yu's grasp, crossed his arms and snorted, "I knew you were lying to me, humph!"

"is it?"

Xia Yu shrugged without saying anything, and turned to walk to Xiaoying who was standing beside him. He suddenly asked, "Xiaoying, do you mind if Xiaoxi stays with you for a while?"

"Huh? What?" Sakura looked at him in surprise, unable to react for a moment.

"That's me, Miss Sakura."

Xiao Xi, who had returned to his original appearance, suddenly appeared from behind Xia Yu's shoulder and then floated in front of Xiao Ying.

Looking at the little girl in front of her, Xiaoying looked at Xia Yu in confusion and asked, "Xia, what are you doing..."

"Hasn't the Sakura card become a transparent card? I think there must be clues that haven't been discovered yet, but I can't always be by your side investigating, so I can only let Xiaoxi do it for you."

After that, Xia Yu looked at Xiaoying again and said, "Of course, if you mind, forget it. After all, it depends on your thoughts."

"No, no, I don't mind, but is this okay?"

Xiaoying shook her head repeatedly after hearing this. She looked at Xia Yu and said, "This is obviously my business, but I made you worry, and..."

Xiaoying looked at Xiaoxi and asked, "Xiaoxi, haven't you always been with Xia? Are you uncomfortable coming to my side all of a sudden?"

"Don't worry about that, Miss Sakura. Xiao Xi has a strong adaptability." Xiao Xi patted his chest. Anyway, his current body is just a body for external activities, so he can go anywhere.

And even if it goes to Sakura's house, it can chat with its owner at any time, so there is actually no problem at all.

After hearing Xiao Xi's answer, Xiao Ying looked at Xia Yu again, and Xia Yu replied: "Friends should help each other, think about it from another perspective, if I encounter difficulties, Xiao Ying, will you stand idly by?"

"will not!"

"That's it, so you don't need to feel guilty about it."

"Um...thank you."

Xiaoying pursed her lips, feeling touched, and thanked Xia Yu solemnly.

Seeing Xiaoying bowing to express her gratitude, Xia Yu waved his hand and said, "No need to be like this. We are just friends."

Hearing this long-lost familiar answer, and the tone that seemed to have never changed, Sakura couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle, and said subconsciously.

"It's the same answer again. Xia, you always say this."

"Hehe~"

Soon, Sakura took Xiaoxi and Xiaoke to say goodbye to Tomoyo and Xia Yu, because after the size was measured, there was no need for her to stay here.

Seeing from the window that Sakura had completely left the manor, Tomoyo's smiling expression finally disappeared. He couldn't help but come to Xia Yu and ask with a worried look.

"Natsu-kun, you let Xiao Xi follow Xiao Ying. Did you know what was going to happen?"

"Ok, I know."

Xia Yu looked at the worried Zhishi, smiled slightly, reached out and rubbed her head, and said softly: "But don't worry, no matter what happens, Xiaoying can easily solve it. After all, that's Xiaoying."

"Why did such a strange thing happen again? We have only been living a peaceful life for a short time." Although Xia Yu said this, Zhishi still didn't let go of his worries.

She took a step forward and got closer to Xia Yu, subconsciously resting her head on Xia Yu's chest, and said in a muffled voice: "Will this also end in a perfect ending?"

"I do not know."

Feeling Zhishi's movements, Xia Yu slid his hand from Zhishi's head down to Zhishi's shoulders and hugged her.

"I don't know the story this time either. I just know that my daily life will no longer be peaceful from now on."

Upon hearing this, Zhishi was silent for a moment, as if he had figured something out. Suddenly, he raised his head, exhaled, and smiled again.

"Natsu-kun, you're right. That's Sakura. We just need to trust Sakura."

After saying that, Zhishi regained his spirits, picked up the notebook that recorded the measurement data, and looked at Xia Yu with interest.

"Since something extraordinary is going to happen again, it will definitely require extraordinary clothes to decorate it. Let's make new clothes for Sakura together."

Looking at Zhishi who had regained his spirits, Xia Yu also smiled and nodded and said, "Okay, Zhishi, do you have any ideas?"

"Not yet, that's why I need Xia Jun to come with me."
