Chapter 170 A Mysterious Appearance, Who?!
"Chiyo, let me take you home," Wang Changsheng said, looking at Chiyo.
He had just acquired a Anywhere Door, so he wanted to try it out and see what it was like to use it.
"Huh?" Upon hearing Wang Changsheng's words, Zhi Shi was taken aback. "Shall we fly back? Wouldn't that be too much trouble for you? I'd better call a driver to pick me up..."
Before Zhi Shi could finish speaking, Wang Changsheng waved his hand, gently interrupting her: "No, it's because my magic book has unlocked a new magic item called the Anywhere Door."
"Huh? The Anywhere Door?" Tomoyo tilted her head. "That's..."
"It's a door that can take you anywhere," Wang Changsheng explained casually, then proceeded to explain how to use it to Zhishi. "As long as you think about where you want to go before opening the door, like your bedroom, you can just open the door and go straight there. How about that? Isn't that convenient?"
"(???(???*)Really?" Tomoyo and Kero were both completely bewildered.
The former might have just found it somewhat unbelievable, but Xiao Ke rushed straight to Wang Changsheng's face, shouting, "Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
Seeing Xiao Ke's excitement, Wang Changsheng glanced at it sideways: "What's impossible about it? It's only allowed that Kuro could use all sorts of laws to create playing cards, so why can't others create a door too? It's just traversing space, why are you so excited? You're making a fuss over nothing!"

"Who gave you this magic book?" After being choked by Wang Changsheng's question for a long time, Xiao Ke finally managed to utter a sentence.
"Didn't I tell you? This is a magic book passed down in our family." Wang Changsheng curled his lip.
Tomoyo and Sakura might not dwell on the origins of this magic book, but Wang Changsheng knew that Keroberos would definitely be somewhat confused and suspicious.
But it doesn't really matter. After all, I'm just a nobody, so what can it do even if it has doubts?
His family is far away on the mainland. Xiao Ke can't even transform now, so it's almost impossible for him to find out about his family.
Therefore, Wang Changsheng was still very confident in fabricating stories.
Besides, even if his lie is exposed, so what?
By then, he will have established a deep friendship with Sakura, Tomoyo, and the others. Even if Kero eventually learns the truth, he might still support him.
Moreover, judging from Wang Changsheng's brief experience with his uncle, it seemed that his family did not welcome him very much.
Although he still doesn't know the truth about his origins, Wang Changsheng can only imagine that it must be a very tragic situation for someone to take him across the ocean to a foreign land.
After all, he was a time traveler, and Wang Changsheng had already gone through almost all those palace dramas, spy movies, love and hate stories in his mind.
He felt that his background was either that of an unpopular child who held some special position in the family, and that he was ultimately brought here by his powerful uncle to live and grow up, perhaps so that he could return to the family and reclaim everything that belonged to him after he had grown to a certain level!
Either he was an unlucky child, despised by everyone, an orphan, who was taken in by his uncle out of pity, destined to live a miserable life. However, to everyone's surprise, Wang Changsheng suddenly took his place, living in this world. In the end, it was still through his special abilities and his own efforts that he returned to his family and reclaimed everything that was rightfully his.
"No matter how you look at it, this is the script that should have played out..." Wang Changsheng chuckled, "Hehehehe!"
"What are you laughing at again?" Xiao Ke had been reluctantly turning her head away, intending to see what the Anywhere Door he was talking about looked like, when she heard him laugh out loud again. She immediately turned her head back and glared at him.
"Huh? Did I laugh out loud?" Wang Changsheng suddenly realized this and came back to his senses. "Sorry, I just suddenly thought of something funny."
"..." Xiao Ke twitched her lips speechlessly and muttered under her breath, "Why do you have the same problem as Sakura? You suddenly start having inexplicable fantasies. I really want to crack open your heads and see what's inside!"
"Huh? What did you say?" Wang Changsheng squinted at Xiao Ke.
"Nothing, where's that Anywhere Door you mentioned? Hurry up and bring it out!" Xiao Ke rolled her eyes.
"Tch!" Wang Changsheng ignored it and simply waved his hand, summoning a pink Anywhere Door.
Seeing the things that suddenly appeared, Tomoyo and Keroberos had already gotten used to Wang Changsheng's ability to conjure things out of thin air.
They just looked at the thing in front of them with some confusion, their expressions suggesting they didn't quite understand it.
"This is the Anywhere Door you were talking about?" Kero flapped its wings and circled the Anywhere Door a few times. "A door frame? I don't sense any magical aura from it at all. You're not kidding us, are you?"
Xiao Ke touched and looked at the pink Anywhere Door, but couldn't figure it out.
However, although it said that, it didn't really think that Wang Changsheng would play such a meaningless joke on them.

"Could it be because this thing is too high-level?" Xiao Ke wondered, somewhat doubting herself. "Or is it because I've lost too much power and can't sense the magic on it? Or perhaps the magic on this thing has been completely contained, and I need to open the door to feel it?"
"That doesn't make sense! Even if the Clow Cards are sealed away and not used, you can still feel slight fluctuations of magical energy when you get close. Could this thing be of a higher level than the Clow Cards?"
A strange thought suddenly popped into Xiao Ke's mind: "Doesn't that mean the person who created this door is even more skilled in magic than Kuro?!"
Xiao Ke circled the Anywhere Door for a long time but couldn't see anything. It couldn't help but steal a glance at Wang Changsheng.
If this magic book truly belongs to his family, then he might really be from some hidden aristocratic family.
After all, Xiao Ke hadn't had much contact with any of the great magicians who could rival Clow Reed, but he still had some impression of them, and none of them had the surname Wang.
Even if Wang Changsheng's magic book was created a long time ago, since it is a family heirloom, his descendants would surely be able to create a powerful magician with the surname Wang by relying on this magic book. However, Xiao Ke has no recollection of it.
"Kuro once said that the world is vast, and some magical families do not reveal themselves to the world, but instead hide themselves very well. Perhaps Wang Changsheng's family is like that." Xiao Ke scratched his head, not intending to think about it any further.
It knew that the surname Wang was a common surname on the mainland.
Just like the Li family.
So if it really is a family of magicians, then there shouldn't be any problem.
Xiao Ke said that she would temporarily believe Wang Changsheng's nonsense.
"Is it enough to just open the door?" Xiao Ke finally gave up exploring the Anywhere Door, turned around and asked Wang Changsheng.
"That's right." Wang Changsheng nodded, his lips twitching slightly as if he were suppressing something.
"However, before opening the door, you need to know exactly where you want to go and the surrounding environment; otherwise, the door will take you to an unpredictable place."
Seeing that Xiao Ke's investigation into the Anywhere Door ultimately came to nothing, he managed to suppress his laughter.
This isn't magic at all, it's technology!
If Xiao Ke could actually sense any magical energy fluctuations from it, that would truly be a miracle.
"Then Zhi Shi, why don't you give it a try?" Xiao Ke, upon hearing Wang Changsheng say that they might end up in some unpredictable place, immediately gave up her spot to Zhi Shi.
"Look at you, so cowardly." Wang Changsheng rolled his eyes at Xiao Ke. "The Anywhere Door is quite stable. Besides, even if you open the door, as long as you don't go through it, nothing too serious will happen. Of course, if something from the other side comes over, then the situation is different."
Xiao Ke: "..."
The more I listen, the higher the danger level seems to be.
Stable my foot!
How can things from over there get here?

Looking at Xiao Ke's blank expression, Wang Changsheng could guess what it was thinking even with his toes.
"Anywhere door is a portal connecting two spaces. If you can go there, things on the other side can definitely come over too!"
Isn't this just common sense?
Tomoyo felt that if she didn't stop Wang Changsheng and Xiao Ke from bickering, they would argue all night long. With a helpless smile, Tomoyo stepped forward, walked to the Anywhere Door, and said in a gentle voice, "I'll give it a try."
She placed her palm on the handle of the Anywhere Door, then closed her eyes and imagined what her bedroom would look like.
Finally, she turned the doorknob and opened the door.
To Tomoyo was indeed surprised; behind the door was her bedroom, where the small nightlights were casting a soft glow, making the room not seem dark at all.
Although they were still standing on the cliff, a completely different scene unfolded behind this strange pink door.
It must be said that this strange feeling was very novel to Tomoyo.
Even Xiao Ke was curious and peeked her big head out towards the door.
"Tomoyo, is this really your bedroom?" Koko was still a little skeptical.
"Really!" Tomoyo nodded.
"In that case, you should take Ke to go back and rest first. We'll see you later." After confirming that the door led to Tomoyo's bedroom, Wang Changsheng said, "Although it's already dark, it's not that late yet. Let's see how Sakura is doing. If she decides to come back tomorrow, we'll come back tomorrow. But if we can capture this Clow Card today, that's fine too."
"Okay!" Tomoyo said that she had no problems on her end, and told Wang Changsheng to contact her directly if he had any news about Sakura. With this Anywhere Door, it would be very convenient for them to come and go.
Wang Changsheng naturally nodded in agreement.
"But Sakura told her family she was doing her homework upstairs, and now Yukito has found out. If Yukito tells Sakura's brother, will they find out about us?" Before leaving, Kero asked another question.
"This..." Wang Changsheng was taken aback.
He hadn't really thought about that kind of thing.
He noticed that the servants in his household never seemed to question what he was doing.
I don't know if it was my own advice that had an effect.

That's right, Wang Changsheng made up an excuse so that his family wouldn't ask too many questions.
As for what that excuse is...
Ahem, he said he's fallen for a girl in his class, so he's been trying to hang out with her as much as possible lately. This girl also loves all sorts of adventures, so he wants to go with her too.
However, it was this absurd and bizarre excuse that the butlers seemed to actually believe. They had already collected several Clow Cards, and he was coming home late every day without anyone asking him anything.
At most, he'd ask how his relationship with that girl was going.
Even this kind of inquiry is rare.
It seems that as a servant, one only needs to do one's duty. Even though Wang Changsheng is still a child, since he is the master, one should not interfere too much in the master's affairs.
Of course, when Wang Changsheng said he was coming home late, he meant something like what happened now—it was late, but not that late.
Similar to the previous incident at the aquarium, this was considered sneaking out of the house without the housekeeper's knowledge.
"I don't know how Sakura will answer, but we can help her explain. We can say that I called her out because I wanted her to try on a dress that was just finished. I think Sakura's brother might scold me a bit, but he probably won't blame Sakura," Tomoyo thought for a moment and then said.
However, Wang Changsheng glanced at her.
Tomoyo, are you sure you didn't say it backwards?
If Touya heard your explanation, wouldn't he blame Sakura instead of you?
Of course, that's what Wang Changsheng thought, but he didn't say it out loud.
"Sakura is still shaken, so they probably won't ask her directly why she came out. We can talk about that after we've contacted her. Tomoyo, you should go back and rest for a while. What if we have to come out again later? If you don't have enough energy, we can't guarantee a perfect shoot."
"That's right!" Wang Changsheng's words were very convincing, so Zhi Shi immediately stepped over the door and walked over.
Xiao Ke quickly followed.
After saying goodbye, Wang Changsheng closed the door.
The void tunnel connecting the two locations collapsed due to the closure of the Anywhere Door.
"Sure enough, the moment filming is mentioned, Tomoyo's motivation kicks in..." Wang Changsheng shook his head and chuckled helplessly, then wondered a bit, "But speaking of which, don't Tomoyo's family care when she comes out?"
If Sakura said she made an excuse, and Sakura said she sneaked out, then what about Tomoyo?
Wang Changsheng wondered if Zhi Shi had an excuse for being able to call a driver to pick him up at any time, or if her family simply never interfered with these matters.
He hadn't initially thought it was a problem, but since Xiao Ke brought it up, his curiosity was piqued.
But now that everyone's gone, he can't ask them anymore.
Making another phone call would be too abrupt.
"Let's ask her next time we see Tomoyo."
Shaking his head, Wang Changsheng grasped the handle of the Anywhere Door: "Speaking of which, this door is all pink and cute, which actually matches the colors of Sakura's world. Okay, then I'll go in~"
Wang Changsheng had just visualized his bedroom in his mind when suddenly, a strange change occurred.
A figure suddenly appeared not far to his side.
"I didn't expect you to even have such magical items. That's really impressive."
The speaker's voice was somewhat hoarse, with a hint of melancholy, as if it were coming from the depths of the underworld.
At that moment, Wang Changsheng also sensed a strange aura.
"Who?!"
