Chapter 38: The Missing Reishi Mushroom

Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations

The girl was extremely angry, but when she remembered that this was not a place to make a scene, she had to swallow it down and glower at Gu Yan.

But Gu Yan didn’t give a damn.

Glower all you want, you’re going to pop your eyes out.

Just as Gu Yan decided to leave with Shen Jiayi, she heard Shen Nana’s scream coming to her ears. “I lost my stuff!”

It appeared that Shen Nana was getting something out of her locker during their conversation.

Everyone looked at them after hearing her scream. Some people even went to get the staff members at the bookstore.

The girl who was just dissed by Gu Yan earlier had an idea popping into her head. She pointed her finger at Gu Yan and Shen Jiayi and said, “It has got to be them! No one else was here before except these two!”

Shen Nana always hated Shen Jiayi, and she was just dissed by Gu Yan a moment ago. She was really not having it right now.

Now that she lost something so valuable, her eyes turned red and stared at Gu Yan. “I thought you two were just bumpkins, now it looks like you two are thieves as well! How shameless!”

“We, we didn’t...” Shen Jiayi was never good at verbal confrontation, and her face turned bright red right now. She couldn’t even finish a complete sentence.

And Gu Yan... She looked at Shen Nana and her friend; it really looked like they indeed lost something.

As to the mission item... Could the missing item have anything to do with the weird hungry feeling and burping sound in her mind?

Ahem, even though she thought of those things in her mind, her expression remained calm.

She must get through what she was facing right now. Not to mention, she was getting dizzier and dizzier!

Gu Yan sneered and looked at Shen Nana, “You keep calling us bumpkins. You’re from the city so you must have standards; where are your standards? Did a dog eat it? Did you see with your two eyes that we took your stuff? You’re just trying to frame us. Let me tell you something, we’re not afraid of you even if we go to the police station! You can go to jail for defamation!”

Gu Yan’s expression was too serious and filled with indignation. Shen Nana and her friend were stunned and also a little bit scared.

At this moment, the staff member came over; it was still the man with a square face. He first asked Shen Nana, “Did you really see these two comrades take your things?”

Shen Nana turned around to look at her friend. The other girl choked a little and looked scared, but she still refused to back down. “Nobody else was here before except these two, and they were acting surreptitiously! It must be these two who stole our possession!”

There were no security cameras at this time. Therefore, some things could not be checked with security camera footage.

Gu Yan turned around to look at the rows of metal locks and asked, “Comrade, all the lockers are equipped with locks. If you don’t have the matching key, then you can’t open up the lockers, am I correct?”

“Yes.”

“My friend and I were indeed here before, but we did not stop for more than three minutes. How can we open the lock, take something out, and lock it again in such a short time? No one could possibly do that, right?”

Gu Yan finished speaking and turned her head to look at Shen Nana. “Shen Nana, your locker had a lock on it, right? You opened the lock with your own hands, right?”

Shen Nana couldn’t find a comeback.

It was indeed her who opened the lock with her own hands, then she saw the things missing inside.

Most importantly, she didn’t actually see Gu Yan and Shen Jiayi stealing anything.

But that reishi mushroom was way too important. The Chen Pharmacy had just got it in stock, and her grandpa really liked it. She volunteered to come and get it today.

She went to the Chen Chinese Herbal Pharmacy and passed by the bookstore on her way back. Then, she remembered that she needed to buy a book...

In the end, she just lost the reishi mushroom like that. Her grandpa would reprimand her when she got home!

Shen Nana looked at the uneasy Shen Jiayi and sneered.

But didn’t she have a scapegoat right here?!
