Chapter 113 Sakura Doing Naughty Things? Clow Card Divination!
Chapter 113 Sakura Doing Naughty Things? Clow Card Divination!
Ye Hui stood aside, watching Li Xiaolang with great interest.
As the heir of the Li family, his strength is second only to the elders of the family.
He should be able to sense the lingering magical aura on the "Sakura" disguised by the mirror, right?
If you can't even tell the difference between the real and fake Sakura, that would be really beneath you.
Li Xiaolang did not answer Meiling's question immediately. He just stood there silently, staring at Xiaoying without moving, as if trying to figure something out.
For a moment, no one spoke, and the atmosphere became somewhat awkward.
"Li Xiaolang, why are you staring at Sakura like that? Did you notice something?"
Seeing Li Xiaolang staring intently at Xiaoying, Ye Hui felt inexplicably annoyed and deliberately spoke up to break the silence.
Sakura felt even more flustered when Li Xiaolang stared at her like that.
At this moment, Chiharu, who had been interrupted earlier, was finally able to continue the conversation. She looked at Sakura with concern: "Sakura, yesterday afternoon at the stationery store near the school, we really saw a girl who looks a lot like you."
"She knocked over all the pens and notebooks on the shelf, scattering them all over the floor, and the shop owner was chasing after her."
“A stationery store?” Sakura frowned, her face full of doubt. “I didn’t go there at all yesterday. I was with Ye and Tomoyo all afternoon.”
Ye Hui spoke up at the right moment, turning to Chiharu: "Chiharu-kun, roughly when did you see that girl at the stationery store?"
"It was around 3 p.m., I think. We had just bought the laptops and were about to go back to school," Chiharu replied after thinking for a moment.
Ye Hui nodded: "Then it definitely isn't Sakura."
He began to describe the timeline in a clear and organized manner: "Yesterday, Tomoyo and I arranged to meet Sakura at 2 p.m. at the entrance of Tomoeda Supermarket to help her family with shopping. We spent almost two hours in the supermarket and bought vegetables, meat and some daily necessities."
"Yes, we finished shopping and left the supermarket around 3 p.m.
Tomoyo then added, taking a video camera out of her bag as she spoke.
Of course, it was actually taken from the storage ring Ye Hui gave her, but it was concealed by her schoolbag.
“I took some photos of the purchase at the time, and they show the time, which can serve as evidence.”
She pulled up the photos.
In the scene, Sakura is pushing a cart full of goods, wearing her eye-catching red bunny ear hat, with the supermarket's snack shelves in the background.
The time of the photo is clearly displayed in the lower right corner.
"After we left the supermarket, we went straight back to Xiaoying's house, packed our things together, and prepared dinner. We didn't separate until dinner was ready and we ate together."
Ye Hui continued, adding that the chain of evidence was impeccable.
“So…” Chiharu immediately breathed a sigh of relief, turned to Naoko and Rika and smiled, “We were wrong after all! That’s great! I knew Sakura would never do such a thing!”
“Yes, yes, yes, we must have mistaken them because they look so alike.” Naoko nodded in agreement, her serious expression finally fading.
Seeing that everyone believed in her, Sakura finally felt a huge weight lifted from her heart.
She looked at Ye Hui and Zhi Shi gratefully: "Ye Zi, Zhi Shi, thank you for helping me explain."
[Kinomoto Sakura's emotional value +15]
【Daodaiji Chiyo’s Emotion Value +8】
Ye Hui blinked, secretly delighted.
After clearing Sakura's name, I actually received emotional points from Tomoyo?
What a pleasant surprise!
"Impossible... How can two people look exactly alike, even with the same clothes?" Li Meiling muttered to herself, her brows furrowed.
Sakura walked up to her: "Meiling, although I don't know who you saw, I really didn't do anything like knocking over the shelves. Maybe... it really was someone who looks a lot like me."
"Hmph!" Li Meiling turned her face away and returned to her seat.
Ye Hui and Zhi Shi presented such compelling evidence that she couldn't find any reason to refute it, leaving her only with a belly full of anger.
"Don't worry about it, Sakura."
Tomoyo gently patted Sakura's shoulder and comforted her tenderly, "Mei-ling is just a bit straightforward and speaks bluntly. She doesn't mean any harm."
"Yes, I know." Sakura nodded, but she still felt a little down.
No one would feel comfortable being publicly accused of doing something wrong.
But then, she couldn't help but mutter to herself, "Really... is there someone who looks exactly like me? Even our clothes are the same..."
Ye Hui chuckled inwardly as he looked at her confused expression.
It's not just that they look alike, it's like a direct copy and paste of the mirror brand!
But he didn't say it explicitly, only giving a vague hint.
"The world is so big, anything can happen. Maybe in some corner we don't know, there really is another person who looks just like you."
“Another me…” Sakura repeated softly, her head down.
at this time.
The school bell rang suddenly.
Everyone returned to their seats, took out their textbooks and stationery, and prepared to begin class.
The discussion about "another Sakura" has also temporarily come to an end.
But Sakura's doubts did not diminish at all.
Sakura shook her head, trying to put the matter out of her mind for the time being.
It's class time now, we can't get distracted!
After the afternoon classes ended, it was time for club activities.
Only Sakura's cheerleading team had practice today.
Ye Hui and Zhi Shi then waited for her under the shade of a tree by the playground.
On the training field, Sakura and her teammates are practicing throwing and catching wooden sticks.
She tossed a colorful wooden stick high into the air, where it spun and drew an arc.
Normally, she could easily catch it, and might even be able to finish with a beautiful twist.
But today, she was clearly distracted.
Are there really people who look exactly like me?
Why did Meiling and the others see 'me' doing bad things?
A series of questions swirled in Sakura's mind.
This completely diverted her attention from the falling wooden stick.
"Sakura, watch out!" Tomoyo, who was on the sidelines, saw the wooden stick heading straight for Sakura's head and immediately warned her.
Ye Hui felt that a familiar scene was about to unfold again.
"boom!"
With a muffled thud, the wooden stick struck Sakura squarely on the forehead.
Ouch! That hurts!
Sakura covered her forehead and squatted down.
The training session was abruptly interrupted.
Chiharu and Naoko, who were also cheerleaders, immediately surrounded her.
"Sakura, are you alright? Did you hit your eye?"
"I'm fine... I just have a bit of a headache..."
Sakura rubbed the spot where she had been hit, feeling a small bump forming on her forehead.
Ye Hui and Zhi Shi also quickly ran over from the sidelines.
"Sakura, let me see." Tomoyo gently pushed her hand away, looking at her flushed forehead, her face full of heartache.
"Thank goodness, it's just a red patch, no broken skin or bleeding." Relieved, Tomoyo took out a wet wipe from her bag and helped her clean it.
Ye Hui sighed inwardly as he looked at Xiaoying's pitiful appearance.
This mirror tablet hasn't even officially appeared yet, and it's already caused Sakura so much trouble.
Without making a sound, he took out a small healing pill from his system inventory and handed it to Xiaoying: "Take this, and the pain will subside soon."
Sakura took the pill and swallowed it. Sure enough, the pain in her forehead lessened considerably in no time.
"Thank you!"
[Kinomoto Sakura's emotional value +8]
The cheerleading team's practice ended early.
Several people were resting on the stands of the playground.
Chiharu couldn't help but ask, "Sakura, what's wrong with you today? You've been absent-minded since this morning. When you were throwing and catching the stick just now, you weren't even looking at it, were you?"
“Yes, you’re the one who’s most skilled at this move.” Naoko nodded in agreement.
“I…” Sakura lowered her head, her fingers twisting the hem of her clothes.
She couldn't casually talk about the other person's affairs, and she really didn't know how to explain it.
"Sakura, are you really alright? Should I go with you to the infirmary for another check-up?" Chiharu was still worried.
"It's really okay, Ye already took care of it for me, and it doesn't hurt at all now." Xiaoying quickly shook her head.
Naoko looked at Sakura, then suddenly leaned closer and said in a low voice, "Speaking of which, I did hear a legend about 'another self' from my grandmother."
"Huh? What legend?" Sakura's curiosity was instantly piqued.
Ye Hui and Zhi Shi also looked over at the same time.
“That grandma said that sometimes in this world, there will be someone who looks exactly like you. Such a person is called a ‘soul-detached person.’” Naoko’s expression turned serious.
"A soul-departing being?" Sakura repeated the unfamiliar term softly, a strange chill creeping over her.
Naoko nodded seriously, lowering her voice even further: "Legend has it that if you see your own 'soul leaving' with your own eyes, it's not a good omen."
She paused, her gaze sweeping over the group, and said, word by word, "It's said that anyone who sees this... will die immediately!"
"Huh?!" Sakura shuddered in fright, her face turning pale, and she instinctively grabbed Tomoyo's hand.
"I don't know if it's true or not, I just heard it from someone else." Naoko smiled and pursed her lips.
Sakura pouted miserably, looking quite miserable.
After a short break, the club activity came to a complete end.
Everyone said goodbye and went home.
Ye Hui, Tomoyo, and Sakura walked side by side on the streets of Tomoeda Town, their shadows stretched long by the setting sun.
Sakura remained silent the entire way, her head down, occasionally kicking small pebbles by the roadside, sending them rolling far away. Her face was listless.
"Still thinking about that 'soul-splitter'?" Ye Hui asked, breaking the silence as he looked at her listless appearance.
Sakura looked up, her dark green eyes filled with worry, and her tone was somewhat uncertain: "Yoko-san, Tomoyo-chan, do you think... there really is another person in the world who looks exactly like me?"
This girl seems to have gotten herself into a dead end.
"Of course not." Tomoyo gently held Sakura's hand. "Sakura is Sakura, the one and only Sakura. No one can replace you. Just listen to those legends and don't take them to heart."
“But…” Sakura hesitated, her voice lowering, “What if the legends are true? What will happen to those who see the ‘Soul Separator’…”
She didn't even dare to utter the word "death," her cheeks turning slightly pale, which made Ye Hui secretly chuckle.
They are already Cardcaptor Sakuras capable of using magic.
It's incredibly cute that they would be scared by such a primary school legend.
Ye Hui stopped and gently flicked her forehead with his finger: "Sakura, you are a magician who bears the heavy responsibility of sealing the Clow Cards. You have even seen real magical creatures. Why are you afraid of such unfounded superstitions?"
"Ooh..." Sakura covered her forehead where she had been flicked and pouted.
However, after Ye Hui's reminder, she did seem less afraid.
Although I was still a little scared
[Kinomoto Sakura's emotional value +10]
Ye Hui sighed helplessly, then turned around and looked seriously into her eyes: "Sakura, I have a question for you."
"Huh? What's the problem?" Sakura was taken aback by his sudden serious tone and looked at him blankly.
"Do you believe me?" Ye Hui asked.
"Of course I believe you!" Sakura nodded vigorously without the slightest hesitation.
[Kinomoto Sakura's emotional value +8]
"That's it."
Ye Hui shrugged. "I assure you in the name of a cultivator that the legend of the 'soul-separated one' is false."
"Even if you do see another 'you', nothing will happen."
He paused, then suddenly changed the subject, adding seriously, "Maybe you could even arrest her and make her do your homework."
"Huh? Doing homework?" Sakura was completely bewildered by his thought process. Her dark green eyes widened, and she didn't react at all.
[Kinomoto Sakura's emotional value +7]
Tomoyo couldn't help but chuckle softly.
【Daodaiji Chiyo’s Emotion Value +6】
"correct."
Ye Hui nodded with feigned seriousness, and then continued his analysis, "Think about it, isn't someone who looks exactly like you a ready-made free labor force?"
"Have her clean your messy room, run errands to buy you snacks, and most importantly, help you with those dreaded math homework! What a bargain!"
"Pfft!" Sakura burst out laughing at his words. "Yezi, how did you come up with such strange ideas..."
"This is called making rational use of resources, do you understand?" Ye Hui raised an eyebrow.
He had fantasized countless times in his past life about having a clone to do things for him.
He continued, "So stop thinking about that 'you'll die if you see it' nonsense, it's all a lie."
"What you should be thinking about now is how to capture that 'other you' if you really encounter her and get her to serve us!"
"For us?" Sakura keenly grasped the key word and blinked.
"of course."
Ye Hui said matter-of-factly, "Such useful labor, of course Zhi Shi and I should get a share. We can't let you take all the benefits, can we?"
Seeing Ye Hui's "bargaining" manner, Sakura finally let down her guard and couldn't help but laugh along with Tomoyo.
The smile in the setting sun was especially radiant.
Seeing this, Tomoyo smiled and nodded, adding along with Ye Hui's words: "Yes, if there really is 'another Sakura,' I can also have her help test the design and comfort of the newly made battle suit, so that we can adjust it to fit Sakura better based on the feedback."
"Thank you, Yoko-san, Tomoyo-chan!" Sakura's eyes lit up again. "I'm not scared at all now!"
[Kinomoto Sakura's emotional value +15]
【Daodaiji Chiyo’s Emotion Value +8】
Ye Hui looked at the emotion value that popped up on the system panel and nodded in satisfaction.
Done!
As expected, magic must be used to defeat magic.
Using absurd arguments to dispel superstition is far more effective than preaching profound truths.
As they passed the penguin park, a burst of cheerful music suddenly drifted over, attracting the attention of the three.
"It's an ice cream truck!" Sakura's eyes lit up instantly, and she grabbed Tomoyo's hand and pointed towards the park.
Ye Hui followed her gaze and saw an ice cream truck decorated with colorful lights and cartoon patterns parked on the lawn in the park, with the owner smiling and greeting several children.
"Yes, they're selling ice cream today. Let's go, it's on me today. Ladies, please order whatever you like!"
Ye Hui waved his hand and led the two over.
Right now, Sakura needs a sweet ice cream to completely dispel the gloom in her heart.
"I want chocolate flavor! And lots of chocolate chips!" Sakura announced her favorite flavor.
"I'll have the vanilla flavor, thank you, Ye-kun~" Tomoyo's purple eyes curved into a smile.
"Boss, one chocolate one with extra shavings, one vanilla one, and one matcha one."
Ye Hui paid the money, then took the three round ice cream cones handed to him by the shopkeeper and gave them to Sakura and Tomoyo respectively.
The three of them found a park bench and sat down.
Sunlight filtered through the leaves, warming me with a touch of coolness.
Sakura couldn't wait to stick out her tongue and lick the chocolate ice cream.
The cool, sweet taste melts on the tip of the tongue.
She squinted her eyes happily: "It's so delicious!"
However, as she ate, her movements gradually slowed down, the smile on her lips slowly disappeared, and her eyes became somewhat unfocused.
"What's wrong, Sakura? Is the ice cream not to your liking?" Tomoyo was the first to notice her unusual behavior.
"No, the ice cream is delicious."
Sakura shook her head, picking at the cardboard of the ice cream cone with her fingers. "I just thought of some possibilities, and I'm still a little scared..."
"What are you afraid of?" Ye Hui put down his matcha ice cream and looked at her seriously.
“I’m afraid… what if Naoko’s legend isn’t false? What if I really see that ‘soul-splitter’…” Sakura pursed her lips. “I don’t want to… I don’t want to leave Dad and my brother like this, and I don’t want to leave you all…”
[Kinomoto Sakura's emotional value +16]
Ye Hui tilted his head. He realized.
The topic of "death".
For a fourth-grade student, it seemed far more burdensome and brought a deeper sense of fear than he had imagined.
It troubles Sakura even more than the ghost.
Sakura's sudden surge in emotions shows that she hasn't truly let go of her worries.
Tomoyo reached out and hugged her, gently patting her back to comfort her: "No, Sakura, you'll be fine. Yoh and I will always be by your side and won't let you get into any danger."
Although both are fourth graders, Tomoyo appears much more mature and composed compared to Sakura.
Ye Hui touched his chin.
It seems we need to give Sakura a real reassurance.
He cleared his throat and said seriously, "Sakura, I think you'll be fine, because the so-called other you might not be a soul-separated being at all."
"Then what is she?" Sakura sniffed.
"Is it possible that...?"
Ye Hui was about to say the words "Clow Cards".
at this time.
A familiar yet unfamiliar figure suddenly ran past from around the corner ahead.
The person was wearing the same school uniform as them, had the same short brown hair as Sakura, and even their slightly forward-leaning posture when running was exactly the same.
She ran incredibly fast, leaving only a blurry silhouette before disappearing into the woods at the other end of the park in the blink of an eye.
"Ah!" Sakura's eyes widened, and she trembled with fright, almost dropping the ice cream in her hand.
The next second, she threw herself into Tomoyo's arms.
"Tomoyo... she... she just ran past... and she really does look exactly like me!"
Tomoyo gently patted her back to comfort her, but her brows furrowed slightly as she saw the figure.
Ye Hui looked over, and there the person in question appeared.
In fact, he could have taken action immediately and subdued the Mirror Card.
But considering that the Mirror Card will need to be purified through Sakura's enlightenment later on.
Furthermore, the bond between Sakura and Touya would allow her to better control magic, so she suppressed the urge to take action.
However, this mirror is really mischievous, doing so many bad things while wearing Sakura's face.
at this time.
Two hurried voices approached from afar: "Sakura! Sakura!"
Chiharu and Naoko came running up, panting, their foreheads covered in sweat and their faces filled with anxiety.
"Sakura, you're here! We've been looking for you for so long!" Chiharu gasped for breath, supporting her knees, before she could finally speak.
Sakura lifted her head from Tomoyo's arms: "Chiharu, Naoko, what's wrong? What happened? Why are you in such a hurry?"
“We…” Chiharu hesitated for a moment, looked at Sakura, then at Ye Hui and Tomoyo, before speaking softly, “We just passed by the sandpit in the park and saw someone bullying the children playing in the sand there.”
"Bullying a child?" Ye Hui raised an eyebrow.
Needless to say.
It must have been that mirror brand that did it.
Naoko added, "Yes! A few children were building a sandcastle when that girl suddenly ran over and kicked it down, throwing sand all over the children's faces!"
"That's too much!" Tomoyo exclaimed, somewhat annoyed.
Chiharu looked at Sakura, a hint of uncertainty in her eyes, and her tone became hesitant: "Um... Sakura, the girl who bullied people... looks a lot like you, even the school uniform is the same, is that you...?"
"It wasn't me!" Sakura immediately shook her head. "I was eating ice cream with Ye and Tomoyo the whole time. I didn't go to the sandpit at all, and I would never bully a child!"
“But… that person really looks so much like you. At first, we thought it was you. We called you several times but didn’t respond, so we followed you here to find you,” Naoko said softly.
"It's happening again..." Sakura pouted.
First she messed up the store shelves, and now she's bullying children. Just how many bad things will that imposter do with her face?
Ye Hui spoke up at the right moment to help Sakura out of the predicament: "Chiharu-san, Naoko-san, I can testify that Sakura has been with us ever since the club activities ended and has never left our sight."
"But regarding the timing..." Chiharu still had some doubts.
“The evidence is right here.” Ye Hui pointed to the chocolate ice cream that Xiaoying hadn’t finished eating in her hand. “After we left school, we came straight to the park to buy ice cream, and then we sat on this bench without moving.”
"When did you see that girl causing trouble in the sandpit?"
Chiharu and Naoko exchanged a glance and thought carefully: "About a minute or two ago, we saw her run into the woods over there, so we followed her."
"now it's right."
Ye Hui pointed to the ice cream in Xiaoying's hand, "Look, this ice cream is only half eaten and hasn't melted much. If Xiaoying had gone to the sandpit just now, she wouldn't have had time to sit here and eat ice cream."
The two looked at the ice cream in Sakura's hand, and then at her reddened eyes, and the doubt on their faces gradually disappeared.
Moreover, Sakura's eyes were red, and she looked aggrieved, yet quite determined.
It doesn't look like he's lying at all.
"So...we were mistaken again?"
Chiharu felt even more embarrassed, scratching her head as she stood there, her cheeks slightly flushed.
"I'm sorry, Sakura, we didn't mean to doubt you."
Naoko quickly apologized, "It's just that the person looks so much like you, even their hairstyle and school uniform are exactly the same, so we couldn't tell them apart for a moment."
Chiharu and Naoko had rushed over specifically to confirm this matter.
Now that the misunderstanding was cleared up, he said a few words of comfort to Sakura and then hurriedly left the park.
Only Ye Hui, Xiao Ying, and Zhi Shi remained by the bench.
Ye Hui looked at Sakura's still slightly furrowed brows and continued the topic that had been interrupted earlier: "What Naoko and the others were talking about earlier, that figure that looks just like you, might actually be a Clow Card?"
"Clow Cards?" Sakura and Tomoyo were both stunned, and they looked at each other.
"Yes."
Ye Hui nodded affirmatively and patiently explained, "Think about it, what else besides the magic of the Clow Cards can perfectly replicate a person's appearance, clothing, and even the slightest movements?"
He paused, then added, "And every time it appears it causes trouble and misleads people, which is consistent with the mischievous nature of some Clow Cards, isn't it?"
Yes! Clow Cards!
Sakura suddenly realized what was happening.
The magic of the Clow Cards is incredibly diverse; creating a copy of oneself is not impossible at all!
If it's a Clow Card, then as long as we find it and seal it away, all the trouble will be solved!
"Great!"
Sakura let out a long sigh of relief.
The tension in my shoulders finally eased, the fear and grievance on my face vanished, and I felt completely rejuvenated.
"So it was the Clow Cards playing tricks! They really scared me to death! Those awful Clow Cards!"
[Kinomoto Sakura's emotional value +14]
Tomoyo blinked her purple eyes: "So that's how it is. I knew it. Sakura is one of a kind, how could there be a second one?"
"If it's the magic of the Clow Cards, then all the previous misunderstandings can be explained."
【Daodaiji Chiyo’s Emotion Value +10】
"However, this Clow Card is too much."
Tomoyo frowned slightly, recalling the things it had done while wearing Sakura's face, and said with dissatisfaction, "It imitated Sakura and caused trouble everywhere, making Sakura misunderstand and be blamed by her classmates. It was really awful!"
"Yes!" Sakura clenched her fist tightly. "I must catch it as soon as possible and teach this naughty Clow Card a lesson! I can't let it stick on my face and ruin my reputation any longer!"
She was just crying in Tomoyo's arms, terrified.
Now, as soon as they hear that their opponent is a Clow Card, they immediately become highly motivated.
As expected of you, Sakura~
Ye Hui chuckled to himself.
"Now that we know it's the Clow Cards behind this, we need to find a place to discuss our battle plan."
Ye Hui suggested, "We need to find a way to lure it out and then seal it away."
“Okay!” Sakura nodded emphatically. “Let’s go to my house! We can discuss it together with Kero. He knows a lot about the Clow Cards, so maybe he can give us some ideas!”
The three hit it off immediately, packed their things, and headed towards the Kinomoto family's house.
Soon, they returned to the front of the Kinomoto family's house.
Sakura pushed open the door and, as usual, shouted loudly, "I'm home!"
However, the living room was quiet, without Touya's usual teasing or Fujitaka's response.
Obviously, one is still in school and hasn't returned, while the other is probably still working outside.
Fortunately, none of them were home.
Otherwise, given Touya's personality, he would definitely tease Sakura for making a fuss.
"Xiao Ke!"
As soon as Sakura rushed into her room, she saw that familiar yellow figure.
Xiao Ke was lying sprawled on the floor, clutching an open bag of potato chips tightly in her arms, her mouth stuffed full, making it difficult for her to speak clearly.
However, its eyes remained fixed on the television screen.
The screen is currently displaying intense gameplay footage.
Hearing the door open, it lazily lifted its eyelids without even looking up: "Oh, Sakura, you're back."
"Don't make a fuss, wait until I finish this game~"
"This guy is too carefree. All he does is eat and play. No wonder he can only be a mascot."
Ye Hui looked at the potato chip crumbs scattered on the ground and silently complained.
"Now is not the time to play games!"
Sakura rushed over and yanked Kero off the floor, scattering the potato chips she was holding all over the floor.
"Hey! My potato chips! That was the last bag I specially saved!"
Xiao Ke let out a scream, its four short legs kicking wildly in the air as it looked at the potato chips on the ground with heartache.
"Xiao Ke, ignore this, something terrible has happened!"
Sakura completely ignored its protests, her expression extremely serious.
"What big thing could it be?"
Kero finally managed to break free from Sakura's grasp, jumped onto the bed, and nonchalantly brushed the potato chip crumbs off his clothes. "Could it be that the Clow Cards have appeared again? Isn't that a common occurrence?"
Tomoyo followed her in, picking up the bag of potato chips that had fallen by the door. Her tone was serious: "Yes, Kero, but this time, it's a very troublesome Clow Card."
Ye Hui was the last to enter, and he closed the door behind him to prevent Xiaoying's family from overhearing their conversation when they suddenly returned.
"Simply put, there's a Clow Card that looks like Sakura and is causing trouble all over Tomoeda Town, leading to several of Sakura's classmates misunderstanding her."
"What?! It copied Sakura's appearance?"
Xiao Ke froze instantly, her eyes wide with surprise.
It jumped off the bed, circled Sakura up and down several times, and even sniffed her, as if to confirm something.
"That's right, this scent, this aura, it's just like the real one, so Sakura, you are Sakura, right?"
Xiao Ke concluded in a serious tone and even nodded.
"Of course I am me!"
Sakura was both amused and annoyed by its appearance. "The problem now is that the Clow Card is causing trouble outside using my likeness. We have to catch it quickly! Otherwise, who knows how many more people will misunderstand me!"
"So that's what happened."
Xiao Ke finally realized the seriousness of the matter, put away his playful attitude, and his expression became serious. "This won't do! We absolutely cannot let it cause trouble in your image and affect the dignity of the Magician Cardcaptor and me, Cerberus!"
The corners of Ye Hui's mouth twitched slightly.
Do you still have any "authority" left?
Didn't all your authority just fall to the floor along with the potato chip crumbs?
Sakura, however, had no interest in talking to Kero and sat down on the edge of the bed, somewhat dejected: "But we have no idea where it is now. Tomoeda Town is so big, how are we going to find it? We can't just go door to door asking, can we?"
"And it runs incredibly fast. When I saw it in the park this afternoon, it was gone in the blink of an eye. There was no way I could catch it," Tomoyo added, recalling the scene from earlier.
"Hmm...that is indeed a problem. Finding these Clow Cards that can run around is quite troublesome."
Xiao Ke stroked his chin, lost in thought for once, while Dou Dou looked conflicted.
Seeing the two struggling, Ye Hui felt it was time to give them some pointers.
He cleared his throat and said, "Since we can't find it, why don't we let the Clow Cards tell us where it is?"
"Huh?" Sakura and Tomoyo looked up at the same time, their eyes filled with confusion, and they both stared at him.
[Kinomoto Sakura's emotional value +12]
【Daodaiji Chiyo’s Emotion Value +10】
Xiao Ke snapped out of her reverie and stared at Ye Hui: "What do you mean by that? Do you have a way to make the Clow Cards appear on their own?"
"What I mean is, don't you have a method of divination?"
Ye Hui shrugged, his tone relaxed, "Didn't we use a similar method when we were looking for other Clow Cards? As a Sealed Beast, how could you forget even this?"
Of course, he could use his spiritual power to sense the location of the mirror tablet and find it.
But that would be too boring.
Not only did it deprive Sakura of the opportunity to solve problems and grow on her own, it also removed many opportunities to boost her emotional value.
Ahem, Ye Hui didn't want to take action mainly because of the former.
Besides, only by letting Sakura catch this imposter who's causing trouble with her face herself can she truly vent her anger.
"Fortune telling! That's right! How could I have forgotten that method!"
Xiao Ke's eyes lit up instantly, and then she jumped up excitedly, all her previous worries gone.
[Kerberos's Mood Value +12]
Kero flew to Sakura's side in an instant, put his two little paws on his hips, and struck a confident pose: "This is the perfect opportunity for me to teach you how to use the Clow Cards for divination! This is a required course to become a qualified Cardcaptor Sakura!"
This guy is starting to act like a know-it-all again.
However, Ye Hui was also quite curious about the divination method using Clow Cards.
When he watched the anime, he just felt that this kind of divination was inexplicable. Now that he is here in person, he doesn't know what will happen.
Ye Hui didn't say anything more, but stood aside and watched quietly.
"Using Clow Cards for divination? That sounds amazing." Sakura's curiosity was instantly piqued.
Tomoyo also showed interest and quietly pointed the camera lens at Keko, preparing to record the whole process.
Xiao Ke cleared his throat and tried to adopt a serious mentor's demeanor: "First, you need to take out all the Clow Cards you have already collected and put them on the table."
"Hmm!" Sakura immediately opened the desk drawer and took out the Book of Seals.
She gently turned the book cover, and Clow Cards flew out automatically, hovering in mid-air before being neatly stacked and landing steadily on the table in front of her.
[You are about to witness Kinomoto Sakura, a disciple of the Heavenly Spiritual Root, using her astrological skills. Favored by the Heavenly Dao, she can glimpse celestial secrets and learn about the movements of the Immortal Talisman Sect's secret treasures. You decide to eavesdrop and learn a thing or two!]
"..."
The corners of Ye Hui's mouth twitched.
He was clearly observing openly and honestly!
"Alright, Keroberos, what's next?" Sakura looked at it expectantly, eager to begin.
Xiao Ke flew to the deck of cards, flapped its wings gently, and began to explain the steps in detail: "First, you need to use your left hand to shuffle the cards—remember, it must be your left hand."
"Left hand? Why do we have to use the left hand?" Sakura blinked in confusion.
"Because your left hand is connected to your heart, you can better feel the magic contained in the Clow Cards."
Xiao Ke solemnly emphasized, "When shuffling the cards, you should keep thinking about the question you want to ask, so that your magic resonates with the magic of the cards."
Upon hearing this, Sakura nodded seriously, stretched out her left hand, gently grasped the deck, and began to slowly shuffle the cards.
Her movements were a little clumsy, but her eyes were very focused, and she was silently muttering, "Please tell me, where is that imposter Clow Card who's impersonating me now..."
Ye Hui watched from the side, finding it somewhat novel.
He had only ever seen tarot card readings in person before.
The divination process of the Clow Cards looks somewhat similar to that of the Tarot cards, so it's likely that related elements were referenced during the design process.
I just don't know what the underlying principle of this divination is.
Is it through the user's magic and the resonance with the cards, or some more mysterious causal deduction?
Seeing that Sakura had almost finished washing the cards, Keroberos continued to instruct: "Alright, now stack the cards back up, and then use your left hand to divide them into three piles. Don't worry about the number of cards in each pile, just divide them by feel."
Sakura carefully followed her instructions, dividing the stack of cards into three roughly equal piles and arranging them neatly on the table.
"And then?" She looked up at Xiao Ke.
