There was a small eraser in the corner. Erasers were common, and students' erasers were perfectly normal. And since there was a school in this small town, it was possible someone's eraser had been lost. But she knew it wasn't someone's accidental drop, but a stone!
Because she buys most of Shitou's stationery and toys, she usually buys whatever she likes. This eraser was bought by her!
She quickly bent down and picked up the eraser, and sure enough, she saw a small word "sister" on it, which had been carved not long ago. This time she was even more certain that it was a hint from the stone!
As for why he chose an eraser instead of something else, it was probably because he happened to have such a thing on him at the time.
But now wasn't the time to dwell on that. Zhang Xingrong simply took a fragrant medicinal powder and sprinkled it around. The scent of the powder in this space was very strong, with a unique aroma that couldn't be easily wiped away, even with hot oil. It would take time, probably over a week, to remove it.
So this was the mark she left for A Yan and a few others.
Of course, this medicine powder has another function, and it will probably take effect after a while.
After doing this, she kicked at the gate. The gate was very solid, embedded in the bluestone and mud wall, so strong that she couldn't kick it open.
This place must have been the landlord's compound, which is why it's so fortified. Zhang Xingrong's eyes were cold as she kicked one after another. Sure enough, a group of people soon gathered around. Some of them she had just met on the street, while others were strangers, and she had no idea what kind of criminals they were. But at the time, no one looked at her, pretending they didn't know her, and let her wander around the town.
But think about it carefully, this town is deep in the mountains and forests, how many villages can there be around it? They should be able to quickly identify foreign faces.
After all, the town wasn't big, and those who had lived here for decades should be able to quickly distinguish between outsiders and locals. So she guessed that someone in the town recognized her as not being a local. In this era, with transportation so blocked, wasn't it strange that they weren't curious about the arrival of an outsider in the village?
These people were deliberately teasing her.
Zhang Xingrong looked at them coldly: "Where's my brother?"
Now she just wanted to know how Shitou was doing. As long as Shitou was okay, she could be gentle. But if these people dared to touch Shitou, she would definitely not be gentle. After being reborn, she originally thought that she had saved her family and let them live in peace, but she didn't expect that she was still careless!
The group of men opposite her didn't say anything, but just stared at her, looking her up and down, as if they were looking at some goods or some prey.
Zhang Xingrong wasn't afraid, though. If she couldn't see Shitou, she'd go crazy: "Who's the loser who doesn't dare show up? Who's even more useless than me, yet dares to arrest someone?"
"Humph!" At this moment, a voice came from the crowd, and then a woman slowly walked out, "That bitch really has a poisonous tongue!"
Zhang Xingrong looked at the woman who had come out, and gave her a good look. She had short hair and was dressed in a neat green dress. Her face was delicate, and her eyes held a strong hatred. But she didn't recognize this woman. Could it be that this woman was also related to Zhang Xinglian in a previous life?
