Bustling on the busy street.
Stopping in front of a distinct stall, Chen Yutong curiously picked up a mushroom and examined it for quite a while but couldn't discern anything special, so she leaned in closer to smell it.
However, her action led to a misunderstanding by Crow, who quickly stood up to stop her.
"This mushroom isn't for eating."
"I know... just smelling it."
Chen Yutong of course knew this mushroom wasn't edible.
With its round, bright red cap and short, flat white stem, adorned with circular white spots, it looked extremely toxic no matter how one saw it.
Moreover, what made her more curious was that it felt like rubber when squeezed, and it had a distinctively fragrant scent.
Seeing the puzzled expression on her face, Crow, somewhat embarrassed, smiled and patiently explained.
"These are Rubber Mushrooms, found in the woods of the Elm District. The nearby survivors usually make them into brooches, buttons, or hairpins."
