Bai Li said, "Liao Huifang said that she saw some weird plants and mushrooms around this place."
She nodded. "Yes, I did."
I remembered as well
I didn't recognize the plants, and I couldn't see the mushrooms well either in that darkness.
"Those are the things that grow from the ground when a dead body is buried under it. The chemicals released from the decomposition give a different type of nutrients to the soil, and those mushrooms start to grow slowly. Hebeloma syrjense is a type of it that I have heard of growing at such places."
Silence.
"I thought of how Cocoa might have helped us sniffing the area to find some clue and what Liao Huifang said suddenly clicked in my mind."
I typed. "You really think that Bai Li?"
