Chapter 45 This is scientific
Ever since the rebellious phantom cards were sealed, there has been a long period of idle time. It seems that every time a Clow Card is sealed, it takes a long time to encounter new anomalies.

But Xia Yu has gotten used to it. For him, whether it is a weekend or a school day, it is quite relaxing.

After all, elementary school students don’t have much to do. Compared to going to school, his energy is actually mainly focused on his own company.

Although he has a large inheritance to use, he can't always squander it and not save some, right?
If you want to live comfortably, you can’t do without money.

Since his identity was purchased directly from the system mall, no one coveted everything he inherited, and the employees assigned by the company were also loyal to him.

Even though he was just an elementary school student in his teens.

It is very unscientific, but the system is unscientific, so two negatives equal a positive, which is very scientific.

Day off, summer home.

"Master, Dadao Temple Group has agreed to our cooperation intention, but..."

At this point, the butler hesitated. As a servant, he shouldn't interfere with his master's decision. Even if the decision was outrageous, who made him serve such a young master?
"Just what?"

Xia Yu supported his face with one hand and asked casually while looking at the company's future development plan.

His company is named Talos, which is taken from the metal giant Talos in Greek mythology (Greek: Ταλω; English: Talos / Talus), and its name means "cutting down" or "sun".

For some reason, Xia Yu always had a feeling that any company started by someone with the same name as him would be called Talos, so he decided on the name of the company based on his feeling.

"Do we really want to cooperate with Daidoji Group on the drone project? Daidoji Group is just a large toy company, why should we cooperate with them on the drone project?"

Speaking of this, the butler was really confused. If it was a cooperative toy project, he would not have any questions, but the drone project... this is no longer in the category of toys!

Which toy company would make a drone? Remote-controlled helicopters are a possibility. Although remote-controlled helicopters and drones have similarities, they are completely different things.

"Heh~"

Hearing his housekeeper's doubts, Xia Yu chuckled, put down the plan in his hand, and replied seriously: "No need to ask, I have made up my mind."

"Besides, do you really think they are just an ordinary large toy company? The Daidoji Group is definitely underestimated. You will never lose out by cooperating with them."

You know, in the later part of the original work, Tomoyo took out a stabilized photography drone as a filming equipment. According to his vague memory, he vaguely remembered that Tomoyo said in person that this was a newly developed product of their family.

What toy company can develop a stable photography drone? This is totally different from the track.

Not to mention the mobile phone that Tomoyo gave him. Maybe the touch-screen mobile phone in the future will also be invented by the Daidoji Group.

"That's it. The drone project is just the beginning. Maybe there will be more projects for cooperation in the future." Xia Yu waved his hand and said no more.

After realizing that this cooperation was not Xia Yu's sudden impulse but the result of careful consideration, the butler no longer raised any questions. Since the master had a clear idea in his mind, that was enough.

"By the way, prepare a box of sketching pencils for me. I remember that we have to go to the art gallery to sketch for the craft class on Monday."

"Yes, Master."

……

School day.

Monday, Art Gallery.

Today's class is unusual because this time the class is held outdoors instead of in the classroom.

However, today is not a field trip day, but a craft class. Their class came to the local art museum in Tomoeda Town and prepared to practice sketching in the art museum.

But the sketching of primary school students is just like that, and the teachers mainly let the students come out to broaden their horizons.

Inside the art gallery, the curator was telling the students about the history of the art gallery. The complicated and boring history made the students sleepy, and only a few of them listened with relish. After more than ten minutes, the curator explained some precautions of the art gallery, and then stopped chattering.

However, the director's suspension does not mean that we can disband, as the head teacher has not spoken yet.

Next, the person who spoke changed to the handsome young head teacher, who was responsible for assigning the sketching tasks to the students.

Fortunately, there were not many tasks and the head teacher only spoke for two or three minutes before it was over.

It was not until then that the gathered students gradually dispersed and went to look for reference objects for their own sketching.

"Sketching, I really miss it."

Xia Yu took his sketchbook and sketch pencil, looked around the art museum's collections, and couldn't help feeling emotional.

He hadn't done any sketching for more than ten years. The most memorable moment of sketching was when he participated in the training camp for art exam candidates before he traveled through time.

At that time, he painted when he ate, slept, and even dreamed. All of this was for the purpose of getting high scores in the art examination. Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, he was back to elementary school.

I still remember that after the training camp ended that year, he gained more than ten pounds. It was really a sad time.

"Huh? Has Xia ever had any experience sketching before?"

Sakura, who was standing by, heard Xia Yu's sigh and couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Yes, it was a painful memory, but it's been so long, no matter how painful it was, it's just a memory now."

"Um... is life drawing painful?"

Hearing Xia Yu's words, Xiaoying was a little confused. She seemed very happy when she was painting and didn't feel much pain?
Xia Yu glanced at Xiaoying and didn't give a specific answer. When a hobby becomes a task, it will be painful no matter what you do.

If painting is a hobby, then you will naturally feel happy, but if it becomes a task, then there is only torture and pain.

"Too much is as bad as too little..."

Seeing that Xia Yu was saying something incomprehensible again, Xiaoying stopped dwelling on this question and turned to ask Zhishi: "Zhishi, where are you going to paint?"

"I want to paint that statue here." Tomoyo pointed to the statue standing in the atrium. It was a sculpture composed of different shapes. It was a little abstract and a test of painting skills.

"Where's Xia?"

"I'll draw the statue too. After all, it's been a while since I've drawn a statue that has both geometry and circles."

"Okay, let's draw together!"

After finding a suitable seat, the three of them sat down together.

Sakura opened her sketchbook with great interest. In order to prepare for today's sketching, she had specially found Xiaoke to practice as a model last night. Xiaoke's portrait was in this sketchbook.

“Hmm? Eh——!”

However, when Sakura opened the sketchbook, her expression froze at first, and then she let out a scream that echoed throughout the entire art gallery, shocking Zhishi and Xia Yu so much that they covered their ears.

In an instant, the homeroom teacher who had long since left came running over and raised his index finger at Sakura: "Shh... The art gallery must be quiet."

"Sorry……"

Sakura covered her face with the sketchbook and apologized weakly with her brows lowered. After the head teacher left, she looked at her sketchbook with some dissatisfaction. The Xiao Ke originally drawn in it had been changed beyond recognition, and there was a line of bold red words written on it - This is the real me!

"Xiao Ke is so annoying!"
