The guards searched everywhere but found nothing, so they had to look elsewhere.
The cat-eared stall owner finally counted the crystal coins, confirmed they were correct, and stuffed them into the pocket inside his chest.
He then picked up the snakeskin bag that had been placed under his buttocks.
This bag looks shabby, but it is actually a storage bag engraved with space expansion runes.
Space artifacts are too expensive, so people who can't afford them will buy these large-capacity bags instead, which can hold a lot.
Cat Ear pulled out a stinky fruit from inside and put it back on.
Xin Sui asked him, "Where did you find the durian, the stinky fruit?"
Cat Ears: "In a swamp to the south."
Xin Sui: "Could you tell me the exact location?"
Bright Island is too large, comparable to a small continent, and the description of "a swamp to the south" is too vague.
The cat-eared creature shook its head: "I don't remember."
Xin Sui asked, "So how did you find out?"
The cat-eared creature glanced at her, then drooped its ears again, clearly reluctant to answer.
Xin Sui handed over a crystal coin.
Cat Ears promptly accepted it.
"I had previously accepted a task to collect Angelica pubescens, so I went to the southern forest."
"I got lost and encountered a big spider that wanted to eat me, so I ran away."
"I ran and ran, and when I finally stopped, I was already in the swamp."
"I saw a big tortoise eating this fruit under the tree. I was hungry, so I went over and tried a piece. I found it delicious, so I picked a few and took them with me."
He could have taken them all if the storage bag had been big enough.
When he tried to find it again later, he couldn't.
Xin Sui bought all the remaining stinky fruit, leaving only one for him.
Of course, she negotiated the price down a bit, to 25 crystal coins.
"Do you have a crystal card? Let's add each other on a call. If you ever find the location of the Stinky Fruit, let me know."
Cat Ears made a considerable amount of money from her, so he readily paid her with his card and agreed, "Okay."
Xin Sui sent Shui Qingqing a message: "I'm tired from shopping and I'm planning to go back. If you see Xiao Ming, please tell him for me."
Shui Qingqing replied, "Okay, Sister Lily."
