The two flowerpots belonging to Xia Chuhe and Du Zhen were both placed in a corner of the basement. It was obvious whose flowerpot had fallen from the sky.
Xia Chuhe glanced into the flowerpot with a sullen face and saw that there was a thin layer of soil inside. He squeezed a handful, and it seemed to be damp.
