Shen Zhiyi didn't want to force the issue, so she didn't continue asking the tea stall owner.
The tea stall owner opened his mouth, but said nothing more.
After finishing her tea, Shen Zhiyi decided to continue searching for the NPCs.
The tea stall owner stopped Shen Zhiyi and asked, "Do you really need to see her?"
He was still a little worried, so he asked Shen Zhiyi another question.
Shen Zhiyi nodded, her expression completely genuine.
Seeing that Shen Zhiyi didn't seem to be lying to him, the tea stall owner finally felt relieved and told her.
“Go to the back of this street, then turn right. There’s a general store there, and she’s in the general store.”
"If you're not at the grocery store, knock on the door next to it; that's also her house."
Shen Zhiyi was quite surprised; she hadn't expected the tea stall owner to still choose to give her Wang Qianyu's address.
After thanking the tea stall owner, Shen Zhiyi left the stall and headed in the direction he had indicated.
After walking for a while, we arrived at the general store that the tea stall owner had mentioned.
But the grocery store was not open.
She stood next to the grocery store for a while, then walked to the right side of the store and knocked on the door.
After a while, no one came to open the door.
Shen Zhiyi thought for a moment and then knocked on the door again.
This time, finally someone came, opening a tiny crack in the door, revealing only one eye.
"Hello, are you Wang Qianyu?" Shen Zhiyi asked softly.
The man glanced at her, then lowered his eyes and said, "You've mistaken me for someone else. There's no one here named Wang Qianyu."
After saying that, she tried to close the door.
"Hey, wait!" Shen Zhiyi stopped the person from closing the door. She said urgently, "This is the address the tea stall owner told me."
Shen Zhiyi had no choice but to use the tea stall owner as a shield, fearing that people would turn her away.
Sure enough, upon hearing the words "tea stall owner," the man paused for a moment and didn't intend to close the door again.
"I heard you needed special snowflakes, so I've brought them to you."
Shen Zhiyi disliked beating around the bush and went straight to the point, explaining her purpose.
Upon hearing about the special snowflakes, the man's face immediately darkened, and his eyes turned fierce.
"I already told you you've mistaken me for someone else! I don't need any special snowflakes!"
He said he wanted it, and then slammed the door shut.
"Huh?"
Shen Zhiyi was dumbfounded. Had she said something wrong? How did she manage to provoke someone like that?
Just then, the owner of a shop came over and comforted her, "Are you looking for Wang Qianyu? That's her."
Shen Zhiyi turned to look at her, "Then why didn't she admit it just now?"
"Because she was disfigured." The shop owner sighed, feeling sorry for Wang Qianyu.
“Wang Qianyu used to be the most beautiful girl in our Nanzhen, but a few days ago, she went out and came back looking like this.”
"When we asked her what happened, she wouldn't say anything, and we don't know what happened either."
"If you ask too many questions, she'll find you annoying and ignore you. She's disliked all of us."
"I really don't know how she turned out like this." The shop owner sighed. She used to be a good friend of Wang Qianyu.
But ever since Wang Qianyu was disfigured a few days ago, her personality has become very strange, and she doesn't dare to get close to Wang Qianyu anymore.
Shen Zhiyi was stunned for a moment, not expecting that something like this would happen to Wang Qianyu.
That makes sense; a pretty girl who is suddenly disfigured would be hard for anyone to accept.
Shen Zhiyi glanced back at the direction of Wang Qianyu's house and sighed.
Finally, she took out a special snowflake and placed it at Wang Qianyu's door.
She kept the special snowflakes in a small box.
"Thank you for telling me all this." Shen Zhiyi smiled at the shop owner.
The shop owner chuckled and said, "What's the big deal? Go home if you have nothing else to do. Wang Qianyu won't see you."
Shen Zhiyi nodded, took one last look at Wang Qianyu's tightly closed door, and left.
The next NPC is in the pharmacy in South Town.
After Shen Zhiyi arrived at the pharmacy, she found the NPC, who demanded that she distinguish the three baskets of medicinal herbs on the ground before he would give her the special snowflake.
Shen Zhiyi was speechless.
Is she an NPC, or is he the NPC?
With no other option, Shen Zhiyi could only drag over a chair and sit there resignedly, sorting through the herbs.
After working hard for more than an hour, it took Shen Zhiyi more than half a basket to be sorted, which left her exhausted.
Some herbs look very similar, and it's impossible to tell them apart without careful observation.
So, this completely baffled Shen Zhiyi, and she almost went blind.
After finishing one basket of herbs, Shen Zhiyi rubbed her eyes and moved on to the next basket.
At that moment, the NPC entered.
He said, "Wow, you've finished dividing the basket so quickly?"
He squatted down next to Shen Zhiyi and looked through the herbs she had sorted.
I didn't expect Shen Zhiyi to be so meticulous in sorting things; she put the fresher items aside and the slightly wilted ones aside.
"How was it? I think my distribution was okay?" Shen Zhiyi looked at the NPC with some anticipation, thinking to herself, "If it's okay, please don't make me distribute it. My eyes are almost blinded."
The NPC nodded in satisfaction. "You sorted the herbs quite well. If you weren't a stranger here, I would have liked to let you stay at this pharmacy."
But here, the NPC felt a little regretful, only regretting that he couldn't keep Shen Zhiyi here!
"What about special snowflakes?" the NPC asked.
Shen Zhiyi took out a special snowflake from her backpack and placed it in the NPC's hand.
"Special snowflakes, I haven't seen them in years," the NPC remarked. He recalled that these were the tokens of love he had given to his wife.
But after his wife passed away from illness, he placed that snowflake among her ashes so that it would stay with her forever.
Later, he wanted to find another special snowflake; he missed his wife so much.
But no matter how hard he looked, he couldn't find a second special snowflake.
He thought he would never find it in his lifetime, but now someone has delivered it to his doorstep.
How could he not be happy?
The NPC took the special snowflake into a room.
Shen Zhiyi sat there, unsure whether she should follow or continue distributing the medicinal herbs.
The NPC didn't call her, so Shen Zhiyi had no choice but to continue sitting and distributing the medicinal herbs.
A moment later, the NPC came out of the room and placed a special snowflake in front of Shen Zhiyi.
“This special snowflake is for you,” Shen Zhiyi said.
The NPC shook his head and said, "No need, I'm already very happy to see the special snowflake one more time."
"Besides, this snowflake isn't the one I gave to my wife."
“Every snowflake is unique, and so is my wife.”
