Silver Ring thanked him and obediently snuggled onto the bench. She lowered her head, curiously taking the lollipop out of her mouth to examine it. Then, with a slight pout, she took another big bite.
It's sweet, this stuff is sweet.
It was sweeter than some kind of herb she had ever eaten before; it was delicious, so delicious.
"Little sister, what's your name? I've never seen you before. Where are you from?" Children are always shy around strangers when they're in a new place. As someone who's been through it all, Aunt Zhang thought she understood children's psychology very well. So, she started a conversation to try and comfort Yinhuan.
Silver Ring tilted her head, her gaze unreadable as she looked at the somewhat elderly woman before her. This was the first human she had encountered in her three hundred years of serpent life who had treated her with kindness.
Even so, Yin Huan still held a hint of wariness towards her: "My name is Yin Huan, and I used to live in Fuding Mountain."
“Fuding Mountain is quite far. I’ve been there before…” Aunt Zhang began to chat as Yin Huan spoke.
She talked non-stop until someone came to get their car, at which point she stopped. After collecting the parking fee, she seemed to remember something and turned to Yin Huan, saying, "Yin Huan, don't wander off, I'm going upstairs to get something."
Silver Ring nodded obediently.
Aunt Zhang had no suspicions. After all, according to Huo Fei, Yin Huan was already ten years old, and children of that age were not likely to get lost again.
Silver Ring sat on the stool, swishing her tail and happily eating her lollipop, her little tongue flicking in and out. Just as she had eaten about half of her lollipop, two young men with blond hair stepped over the railing.
The two young men, dressed in a sleazy manner, peeked around and looked around for a while after entering the parking lot before 'sneaking' into it.
Yin Huan was sitting in the small house when she saw someone coming. She subconsciously looked up and glanced at them. As soon as she saw the person, she suddenly stopped biting her lollipop, tilted her head, and frowned in confusion.
As if she had discovered something, Yin Huan twitched her little nose uncertainly. The moment a slightly familiar scent wafted into her nostrils, her big eyes suddenly lit up, and she jumped up from the stool.
Silver Ring popped the lollipop into its mouth, opened the door of the hut, and, dragging its tail, walked toward the two young men.
It's like finding a needle in a haystack; these two have the same aura as the place where Huo Fei lost his car.
Moreover, at that time, the auras of these two lingered in that place the longest... By normal deduction, these two sneaky guys might very well be the car thief.
Silver Ring swaggered over to the young man, swishing its tail.
The two young men were squatting on the ground, fiddling with a pair of pliers. When they came in earlier, they noticed that the parking attendant wasn't there, so they mustered up their courage and decided to make a big score in the parking lot. If they were quick, they might be able to steal two electric scooters in one go.
What are you doing?
The two thieves were at a crucial point in picking the lock, and the first electric scooter was almost within their grasp, when a crisp sound suddenly rang in their ears. Startled by the unexpected noise, the two thieves stumbled and fell to the ground.
The two young men patted their bottoms, their eyes suddenly widened, and they abruptly turned their heads to the left.
There, a fair-skinned little girl was squatting nearby, sucking on a lollipop, staring at them curiously.
When the two men saw that it was a young girl who had appeared, they immediately felt relieved.
The young man in the black t-shirt glared angrily at Silver Ring: "Whose brat is this? Doesn't he know that scaring someone can kill them? Go away, this is none of your business. Go eat your lollipop and don't bother your brother's work."
As soon as he finished speaking, another young man in a green t-shirt rolled his eyes mischievously and said to Yin Huan with a smile, "Little sister, your brothers are doing serious business. Here, take these melon seeds and eat them over there. While you're at it, keep watch for your brothers. If anyone comes later, just call out to them."
I don't know if he liked eating sunflower seeds, but as soon as the young man finished speaking, he pulled a handful of sunflower seeds out of his pocket.
Silver Ring looked up, blinked twice, then grinned and snatched the hand from the young man's hand with her little paw.
She didn't say anything, glanced at the two guys a few times, wagged her tail, and sat down on a stone stool next to the young man.
After sitting down, Yin Huan used her little teeth to quickly swallow the lollipop. Then, curiously, she put a sunflower seed in her mouth... She moved her little mouth, and when she spat it out, she had only eaten the shell.
She had seen people eat sunflower seeds before; some time ago, Blue Monkey somehow got hold of a huge handful of sunflower seeds.
While cracking sunflower seeds, Yin Huan silently stared at the two guys who were trying to pick the lock with a sly smile. After her tail was surrounded by a ring of sunflower seed shells, Yin Huan clapped her hands and stood up from the ground.
"How much longer are you two going to do this?" Silver Ring dragged its tail as it walked up to the two little thieves.
"Almost done, almost done, the sunflower seeds are all gone. Here, here's another bag, take it and enjoy them slowly." The young man in green glanced at the silver ring, then reached into his pocket and pulled out the whole bag of sunflower seeds.
Yin Huan didn't stand on ceremony with him at all and took the melon seeds without any hesitation.
She grabbed one and popped it into her mouth: "Hurry up, you guys, so I can catch them red-handed..."
