The next morning, Mu Ying visited her uncle's house again.
However, after knocking for a long time without any response, she learned from a neighbor that not long after they had left yesterday, her uncle had gone out and hadn't returned since.
But this did not deter her; she went around to the back of the house, climbed over the courtyard wall, and entered.
The shattered pebbles from yesterday were still scattered on the ground, untouched by sweeping, and all sixty glass beads were there, not a single one missing.
But why were they all colored now?
One, two, three, four, five, six, exactly six colors, as if the Black Leaf Glass Beads she saw yesterday were all an illusion, making Mu Ying doubt her own eyes.
Although the result was unexpected, Mu Ying still packed the glass beads into a plastic bag, intending to take them home for research.
