The Riddle Race Part 4
"A deciduous tree!" they answered in unison.
The anthousai clapped her hands and nodded.
"Correct!"
Astoria yelled in triumph, feeling a sense of relief that their answer was correct.
"Here you go," the anthousai said, holding a piece of a puzzle.
Astoria took it and thanked her. They stared at the puzzle piece, which had an image of a part of a plant. She put it in her belt bag and smiled.
"We should get going since we agreed on spending thirty minutes on each location," Laojin said, staring at his watch.
They nodded and bowed at the anthousai.
"Thank you for your time," they told her, and she smiled at them.
"Thank you for keeping me company, and I wish you well at the remaining locations of the riddle race. I hope you will continue to work this well in all the other locations. Your teamwork is really great."
