Chapter 42
Sakura's Nth Spying Scene~
"Bang!"
Sakura rushed back to her bedroom and slammed the door shut.
"Yo! You're back~"
Little Ke, who was taking a nap on the magic book, heard the door open and couldn't help but raise her head. She kicked her little legs and sat up straight, letting out a loud cry.
Sakura came to Kero's side and placed the cookies she had secretly brought back in front of him.
The aroma of the cookies was irresistible; even after sitting overnight, they still looked delicious, and my mouth watered.
"Slurp! Is this for me to eat?" Xiao Ke swallowed hard, and its tail involuntarily wagged like a puppy.
"Your breakfast." Sakura nodded.
Seeing Xiao Ke grab the biscuit that was half her height and start munching on it, she stopped paying attention to her and went to the wardrobe, took out the school cap, and put it on while looking in the mirror.
"You can eat slowly, I'm leaving now." Sakura called to Kero, "After your brother and dad leave, you can do whatever you want, you can watch TV too, but be careful not to get caught!"
Sakura put on her hat, glanced back at the alarm clock, and realized it was already late. She exclaimed in surprise, grabbed her schoolbag, and ran out the door.
As Sakura walked out the door, she didn't hear Kero's response. Of course, Sakura figured that Kero probably had his mouth full of cookies and wouldn't have time to pay attention to her, so she didn't think much of it.
Leaving home, Sakura skated through the path strewn with cherry blossom petals, as pink petals drifted down from the sky.
As dawn broke and the world was bathed in radiant light, the land was gilded with a golden glow. Under this dazzling pale golden light, the cherry blossoms appeared exceptionally gentle.
Sakura glided along, the gentle breeze she stirred up the cherry blossoms, making them flutter like petals of golden-pink silk, a hazy veil that enveloped her, gentle yet not gaudy, spreading in all directions.
"It's still early, why don't we take a detour?"
Smelling the fragrance of cherry blossoms, Sakura took a light step, turned right, and entered an alleyway.
There's a small slope here. After sliding down and turning a few corners, Sakura's lithe figure came to a stop in front of a courtyard.
Instead of standing in front of the gate, she crept closer to the wooden fence and bushes beside the yard, peeking her little head inside.
"Is Brother Snow Rabbit still sleeping?"
It turns out this is Yukito Tsukishiro's house. Sakura's ability to find this place so easily suggests she has plenty of experience "peeping" around.
Just as Sakura was looking inside, a very familiar voice suddenly rang in her ears.
"Sakura, what are you doing here?"
"∑(O_O;)ah?!"
Startled by the sudden sound, Sakura jerked back and realized that Yukito had been sweeping in the corner all along, but she hadn't seen him earlier because of the limited visibility.
In that case, what about her peeking around earlier?
Wouldn't everything have been seen?!
>_<|||
How embarrassing!
"Snow, Snow Rabbit Bro, so you're here!" Sakura looked at Snow Rabbit Bro who suddenly leaned close to her and couldn't help but chuckle awkwardly.
At this moment, Yukito held a broom in his hand, was about the same height as a person, and wore a wide white robe. His milky gray hair looked particularly warm in the morning sunlight.
It must be said that, as a boy, Touya might be considered roguishly handsome, but Yukito is definitely the kind of handsome that is similar to a beauty, gentle and handsome, but not effeminate.
"Good morning, Sakura. What's up?" Yukito's voice rang out, gentle and kind. "It's still early today. Why are you here so early?"
"Haha~" Sakura chuckled awkwardly, scratching her head, then laughed back and said, "Well, I had to get to the classroom early to sweep, so I left a little earlier. On the way, I just stopped by to see if you were up yet, Yukito-nii, haha."
Hearing Sakura's words, Yukito couldn't help but smile slightly. His gentle smile seemed to be mixed with tenderness. He didn't say anything more, but simply picked a few peach blossoms from the neatly arranged flowerbed and placed them in front of Sakura.
"Sakura, here's a bouquet of flowers for you. Take it and decorate your classroom for the new semester."
A fragrant bouquet of flowers was placed before her, and Sakura's cheeks flushed slightly as she accepted it. "Is this alright? Yukito-nii, you've been taking good care of your flower garden for a long time, haven't you?"
"It's nothing, just a bouquet of flowers. It's perfect for Sakura to decorate the classroom." Upon hearing this, Yukito gently shook his head. His smiling eyes sparkled with a gentle meaning, as bright as stars, stirring people's hearts.
Listening to Yukito's gentle and kind words, Sakura felt her heart pounding so hard it was about to jump out of her chest.
Snow Rabbit Bro is so handsome!
After thanking her, Sakura waved to Yukito and then glided away.
"Well then, Snow Rabbit Bro, I'll be going now!"
"Okay, be careful on the road." Snow Rabbit nodded gently, the gentle smile on her lips never fading.
When Sakura arrived at school with joy, changed her shoes, and entered the classroom, the timing was perfect; no one else had arrived yet, and she was the first.
"What a beautiful day!"
Sakura placed the peach blossoms that Yukito had given her into an empty vase in the classroom, then put her schoolbag on her seat and got up to tidy up the classroom.

But just then, with a "whoosh," the front door of the classroom was opened, and Sakura looked up to see Tomoyo.
"Sakura, you're up early today."
Tomoyo walked into the classroom, only to find that Sakura was already there. In an instant, a glint flashed in her dark purple eyes.
"Hi-yo." Sakura greeted her, then looked at Tomoyo with some confusion and asked, "I'm on duty today, that's why I came a little early. Tomoyo, is there something you need? I remember it's not your turn to be on duty today, is it?"
"That's right, it's not my turn to do chores." Tomoyo nodded slightly, then took off her backpack and said to Sakura with a smile, "I came so early today because there's something I want to show you. I was so eager to see it, and since no one else is coming, I came early."
"(●。●) Huh? Something you want to show me? What is it?"
Upon hearing Tomoyo's words, Sakura tilted her head, and the ahoge (cowlick) on her head twitched with her confusion.
Did you come so early just to show yourself something when no one was around?
It has to be said that Sakura's curiosity was piqued by Tomoyo.
"This is it." Tomoyo put her schoolbag on the table and was about to take something out when suddenly, the classroom door was pulled open from the outside again.
Tomoyo and Sakura immediately turned their heads to look at the person who had come.
"Oh hi yo~" Wang Changsheng's voice rang out.
He walked into the classroom and, seeing the two of them acting suspiciously, couldn't help but greet them with a smile.
It seems he arrived at just the right time.
