Bai Chi was holding a clay doll in his hand. It was very old, but it was obvious that it had been carefully protected.
'Meow? This doll?'
Xiao Hei jumped onto Bai Chi's shoulder and quickly recalled.
"Master, this doll seems to have been used by the original owner to press instant noodles?"
It’s true. Bai Chi is speechless. No wonder it looks so old, but it’s still very clean.
The clay doll was very light and obviously hollow, but after shaking it vigorously, there was no foreign object inside.
But Bai Chi had already "seen" that there was indeed a small object stuck inside the fat belly of the ceramic doll. Looking more closely, he could see a circle of marks in the middle of the clay doll.
Bai Chi grabbed the doll with both hands and twisted it gently, splitting the doll into two halves, front and back.
The doll's belly was indeed hollow, and there was a square ball of mud that was stuck firmly on the doll's belly, and then the whole thing was glued firmly with glue.
"Meow! Master, you are so awesome! This should be the seal they are looking for, right? No wonder Xie Rufeng couldn't find it."
The original owner placed the doll directly on the table and occasionally used it to press instant noodles. When someone asked about it, the original owner said that he got it by using a trap.
So no matter whether Xie Rufeng was secretly searching for it or he asked the original owner's roommate to keep looking for it, they never became suspicious of this clay doll.
He pinched the mud lump between two fingers and applied a little force. The dry mud lump immediately broke into pieces, and then a brown seal wrapped in an old plastic film fell out from it.
It is indeed the seal of the Qian family.
Bai Chi chuckled and put it into the space casually. He then placed the original owner's things one by one in the rental house, and put all the useless things in garbage bags - including those clothes that shed and faded.
As for the clay doll, if I'm not mistaken, it must have been made of two halves that someone had specially fired. The seal is made of wood, so it's impossible for it to be placed directly inside the doll and fired.
That's why it's wrapped in plastic film and covered with mud. After it dries, it's stuck in the doll's belly. It's fixed with glue to prevent it from falling out, so that others won't know that there's something inside the doll.
It's just that the doll was hidden so well that the original owner couldn't even remember where it came from, so he just said he got it through a trap.
In fact, if outsiders knew a little more about the situation, they would know that the original owner was simply reluctant to spend money on the ring. To the original owner, even if it was just entertainment costing a dozen dollars, it was not as cost-effective as eating two chicken legs in the cafeteria.
Precisely because no one understands it, no one has ever been suspicious of this ceramic doll.
However, the original owner had no idea what was inside the doll, but he always remembered to keep it well, so he kept it with him even though the doll had faded.
"Meow~ Master, this looks like the seal of the Qian family's head. Could it be that it was lost along with the young master of the Qian family, and that's why it's in your hands?"
"Perhaps, as a child of an aristocratic family, he must have been trained since childhood. Even at the age of ten, he must have known the importance of this seal, which is why he hid it so well."
Before, we could only guess based on the behavior of Xu Xiu and the others, but now that we see this seal, we can basically confirm that the original owner is the descendant of the lost young master of the Qian family.
It’s a pity that too much time has passed, at least thirty or forty years. It is no longer known how the young master got lost and why he didn’t contact his family.
He still remembered to hide the seal and give it to his son for safekeeping.
"Meow, Master, can we take the seal and go to the Qian family to claim our kinship? Slap Xu Xiu and Xie Rufeng in the face, inherit the Qian family business, and wait for the Xu and Xie families to go bankrupt!"
Although he was just a little kitten, he spoke in a heroic and proud tone.
However, the next second, he was flicked away by Bai Chi's two fingers and fell directly from his shoulder onto the table next to him.
"What are you thinking? Can someone who comes to you on their own be the same as someone who comes to you? Just wait and see who comes to you first, the Qian family or Xu Xiu and Xie Rufeng."
