198 Shard Choice

"These look like eggshell shards." Ah Sheng carefully examined the shards and said after a moment of thought.

"Eggshell shards?" Zhou Wen carefully inspected the six shards and indeed, they looked like irregular shapes after an eggshell cracked.

Furthermore, the shards all had some curvature, making Zhou Wen even more certain that Ah Sheng was right. These shards were likely the eggshells of the six chicks.

But why are they bringing me their eggshells? Can it be that they want to treat me to eggshells? I can eat bird eggs, but I can't eat eggshells. Zhou Wen felt depressed. Ignoring the fact that they couldn't understand him, he coughed lightly and said to them, "Thank you for your kind intentions. I don't eat eggshells. You should put them away."

It was unknown if they didn't understand him or if there were other reasons. The six chicks stood in front of Zhou Wen in a line as they stared at him with widened eyes, as though they hadn't heard him.
