[Comprehensive] Card Boy

I am back.

As soon as these words were uttered, Shuo felt that everything around him became real, and Sakura threw herself into his arms like a small cannonball and cried like countless times before.

I don't know if it's a coincidence or some other reason. After Shuo returned to his own world, Snow Rabbit, who had been in a coma, also woke up. After staying in the hospital for observation for a few days, nothing abnormal was allowed. discharge.

Three months have passed, the original semester has ended, and the summer vacation is ushered in.During this period, Shuo took the time to go to school to take a make-up exam to avoid a black history of 0 points in all subjects in his academic career, and then he went on a long vacation with peace of mind.

Time flew by like running water. In the following days, Shuo never saw the moon again.

The figure that looked like a bright moon when he first met in Alice Academy seemed to be just a dream, but now that he returned to reality, the dream disappeared.

Therefore, Shuo always touched the Clow card in his hand over and over again, because only in this way, he could be sure that the existence of Yue as the guardian was definitely not a dream of his own.

According to what the person said last time, Yue exhausted his power to keep his soul from leaving his body. However, Yue was also severely injured because of this, and he couldn't appear in front of him for the time being.

This realization always makes Shuo very anxious.

The desire to see the moon is becoming more and more urgent day by day.

Whenever Si Nian was about to break through the shackles, he suddenly found himself powerless, because he didn't know how to see Yue, and he didn't even know the means of contact.

In the time before this, Yue also never told him.

Therefore, he could only comfort himself with what the man had said, and patiently waited for the next encounter.

It is always very hot in midsummer, the chirping of cicadas penetrates the barrier of the windows and enters the room, and the sound of the air-conditioning blowing reverberates in the room, making people drowsy.

Sakura turned off the air conditioner casually, and after changing her clothes, she knocked on the door next door, "Ni-chan, it's time for us to go."

With a click, the door was opened, and Shuo walked out yawning, with a sleepy look on his face, which showed that he was not awake.

Sakura, who hadn't been with Saku for a long time, was obviously very excited. After holding her brother's arm, the two siblings went out chatting and making noise.

The destination of their trip was Tsukimine Shrine.

According to Sakura, she got acquainted with the priestess in this shrine by accident. Because too many things happened recently, she contacted her specially, hoping to go to the shrine to pray.

The other party quickly agreed to Sakura's request, and after learning about the situation from Sakura, they welcomed the two brothers and sisters very much.

When talking about this, the expression on Sakura's face has been very happy, obviously she has a good impression of that priestess, so she is very happy about the upcoming meeting.

"Miss Guanyue is a very—very amiable person!" Xiao Sakura clasped her hands together and drew a big circle, trying to prove something in this way, her eyes could almost shine, In words, she highly praised this lady witch, "She is gentle and beautiful, just like a mother."

Mother?

Hearing this word, Shuo raised his eyebrows uncontrollably.

He wasn't dissatisfied with this, it was just that Sakura's words reminded him of their mother Nadeko.Sakura was only three years old when Nadeko passed away. Although she grew up safely and happily under the care and care of her father and brother, it is undeniable that the role of mother cannot be replaced.Although Sakura doesn't usually talk about it, everyone can see her longing for her mother. Now that she can describe a person like this, she must really like him.

It's a pity that she didn't know that Nadeko, who had passed away, was always thinking about her three children, and would often return home as a soul to check on their growth.

However, apart from Saku and Toya, no one in the family had ever seen such a Nadeko.

This made Shuo suddenly think of the night when Nadeko died, and the day when he awakened his magic power. Nadeko reached out to touch the top of his hair, but in the end, because of life and death, he could only cross it. .

And the look in Nadeko's eyes when she looked at him at that time, lovingly filled with nostalgia and sadness, made him easily feel her reluctance for her family and children.

Seven years was not too long or too short, but it was enough for Shuo to accept this gentle woman who gave him a new life.

Thinking about it this way, I suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, and my originally relaxed mood sank a bit. Shuo didn't want to continue this topic anymore. In order to prevent Sakura from seeing something, he put a smile on his face, and was thinking about it. When I changed the subject, I heard Sakura's voice pause.

"...Speaking of which, Ms. Guanyue once asked me to tell my brother a word." Sakura's expression became a little strange, as if mixed with emotions such as confusion and doubt, "But I have two brothers. , so I don’t know who she asked me to bring this sentence to, when I wanted to ask in detail, Miss Guanyue said, ‘The meaning of this sentence can only be understood by those who are predestined’ or something.”

Shuo unconsciously paid attention to these mysterious words, and there was a vague premonition in his heart. He couldn't say whether it was good or bad, but he was a little worried. The meaning also disappeared, "What are you talking about?"

Not noticing the serious expression on her second brother's face, Sakura patted her forehead and tried her best to recall: "It probably means—'If you want to know the secret of time, go to Yuefeng Shrine to find me'—yes, that's right. This sentence." She slapped her palm, her eyes lit up, "Because only my brother was there before, so I went to tell him this sentence, but he didn't respond at all, and said that I was an idiot or something... It's too much of!"

That means, if Taoya didn't pretend to be like this on purpose, then this sentence should be for him.

Thinking of this level, Shuo secretly frowned.

If you want to know the secret of time, come find me at Tsukimine Shrine.

The secret of time?

Is it the time in the Clow card?What secrets will it hold?

After getting the time card in Alice Academy, the time card and the brutal card were only activated once in the Warring States Period, but only this time they crossed time and space and came to a new world.

Could it be that Miss Miko meant... to travel through time and space?

Thinking of this, Shuo was shocked, and wanted to ask a few more questions, but stopped abruptly after seeing his sister.

Since this kind of euphemism was adopted, it must be that the priestess did not want Sakura to know too much, even if he asked, he would not get any answer.

However, apart from him, only Yue knew about time travel. How did this person find out?

"Ah, we're here!" Seeing Shuo immersed in her own world, Sakura waited for a while and then turned her eyes away. Suddenly, her face was filled with joy, and she happily grabbed Saku's arm beside her, pointing at him, " This is it!"

Saku cooperated with her to stop, raised his head and looked towards Tottori, the gate of Tsukimine Shrine jumped into his eyes, green trees stood on both sides, the leaves faintly came out from time to time, and crisp bird songs came from time to time, accompanied by bursts of rustling sounds, The whole shrine gives people a sense of tranquility and tranquility.

After watching for a while, Shuo took the lead and walked up the steps.

To understand all this, it seems that the only way is to ask the witch herself.

Because it is midsummer and it is daytime, the shrine is very quiet, except for a few cleaning staff, there are no other tourists.

There were loud cicadas chirping in my ears, and after passing through a quiet and deserted stone path, the ancestral hall appeared in front of my eyes.And in front of the gate of the ancestral hall, stood a red and white figure.

Because it was a little far away, Shuo didn't see who it was at first, until Sakura who was beside him suddenly let go of his arm, shouted "Miss Guanyue" and ran towards him at a trot, then he realized the other party's identity.

In a daze, he had unknowingly walked in front of the two of them. The woman in the maiden costume was lowering her eyes slightly, looking at Sakura in her arms with a smile on her face. sensed his coming.

Hearing footsteps, Sakura raised her head from the opponent's arms, stood up straight and introduced seriously: "Miss Guanyue, this is my second brother."

"Hi, I'm Saku Kinomoto." Introduced by his sister, Saku put on a gentle smile on his face, using this as a cover, and secretly looked at the woman in front of him.

Her long brown hair was tied neatly behind her head, and her brown eyes of the same color contained deep and shallow smiles, which set off her already beautiful appearance with gentleness and softness. women.

Because she heard Sakura's words, her eyes had shifted to Saku in front of her at this time, and she didn't know if it was his illusion, but after seeing him, the faint smile in those brown eyes became more profound.

She opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something, but was suddenly interrupted by a loud noise not far away.

"What sound?" Sakura was startled, and immediately looked in the direction of the source of the loud noise, only to see a flock of startled birds.

Shuo followed her to look at the past, but raised his eyebrows indistinctly for no other reason, because he actually felt the breath of the Clow card in that direction.

He glanced at the woman beside him out of the corner of his eye, but saw that the smile on her face just now had turned into faint worry, and she was looking in that direction and muttering: "That is the important place for the sacrificial activities in a few days, I don't know what happened..."

After the loud noise, the direction returned to calm, as quiet as if the sound just now was just their illusion.

Xiao Ying saw her embarrassment, turned her head and comforted her: "It's still quiet there, there's no noise, so it shouldn't be a big deal, Miss Guanyue, don't worry."

"Sakura, go and help Ms. Guanyue take a look, so as not to worry her." Shuo, who had been silent all this time, suddenly opened his mouth. After all, with Sakura around, his questioning would inevitably be restrained, so he took this opportunity to arrest her. Pulling away is the best option.

Besides, there are Clow cards there, so it would be perfect for Sakura to go.

"Eh?" Sakura was stunned for a moment, but didn't realize what Sakumo meant, so she quickly nodded her head in agreement.

After watching his sister's figure go away, Shuo withdrew his gaze, turned his head and just bumped into the deep brown eyes of the woman beside him. In the moment they looked at each other, a little smile appeared there again, and his face changed so fast. It was as if the worry on his face just now was fake.

"I'm Guanyue Gefan." She smiled and said what was interrupted just now, and at the same time stretched out a hand, her deep eyes seemed to reflect the stars, gentle and peaceful, "Nice to meet you , Mr. Shuo."

"Me too."

While talking, Shuo also smiled and stretched out his hand to hold it.However, the moment the skin touched, the smile on his face froze instantly, and the sudden familiar magic power fluctuations from Guan Yue made him open his eyes wide and look at her face in disbelief. Go, as if trying to find something from her expression in this way.

However, Guanyue always had that gentle smile, as if the person who emitted the magic wave was not her.As if she didn't notice Shuo's unnatural expression, she smiled lightly and spoke again, but Shuo couldn't react to what she said, "Shuo-kun must have got the words I asked her to bring to you from Sakura. "

"...That's right." The fluctuation of the moon attribute in Guanyue's body was too strong, which made it difficult for Shuo to resist. After being dazed for a while, he managed to pull back his thoughts, but the doubts and precautions in his heart were getting bigger and bigger, and he couldn't help but blurt out ,"who are you?"

It's not that he doubts, but that the magic power in her is huge and mellow, and the timing of the Clow card's appearance is too coincidental, making it difficult for Shuo not to associate it.

After saying this, he paused for a while, and added: "What is your purpose for bringing me here?"

"I have no malice in inviting Mr. Shuo here. It's just that the time has come, and it's time to let Mr. Shuo know something." Guanyue smiled and stepped forward, stretching out her hand, "After all...Mr. Shuo is the one chosen by the darkness. , is also a child valued by 'him'."

Guanyue held Shuo's palm but did not let go, making Shuo, who was already attracted by her magic power, unable to struggle, she touched her forehead so simply, and before she even had time to think about the deep meaning of her words, she realized He sank and fell asleep.

Opening his arms, he took the comatose Shuo into his arms, Guanyue lowered his eyes and quietly watched his frowning face, couldn't help smiling, and said in a low voice, "Sleep, Mr. Shuo."

When you wake up again, it's time to learn all the truth.
