"What right do you have to talk to me about a deal?" The magistrate sneered, as if he had heard a joke.

Wang Yiyi smirked: "Just because I'm the only one who knows where these six people are. Six living people might be easy to find, but six corpses... if the magistrate had arrived any later, the bodies would probably have been eaten by wolves. And then..."

"What deal?" the magistrate interrupted her.

The girl looked young, but she acted and spoke with remarkable maturity and experience, which made the magistrate somewhat believe her.

"Return my father's money to him, and send a carriage to take us to Shi County. Your Honor, you've lost nothing in this deal. You don't need me to elaborate on what a merit you've made by catching the spy, do you?"

Wang Yiyi's request was not excessive, and she did not intend to make enemies right away, especially not a county magistrate.

The magistrate nodded: "I can agree, but I need to see the body first. If you're lying, your whole family will be treated as spies."

Wang Yiyi remained calm: "Of course. You can send someone to search the woods to the east. They can make a round trip in an hour at full speed. If they can't find the person, then you can punish me later."

Seeing Wang Yiyi's confident demeanor, the county magistrate had no choice but to believe him; it was only an hour, and he could wait that long.

Wang Yiyi appeared calm, but she was actually a little unsure. She wasn't sure if these six people were the same six the magistrate was looking for.

However, she also made the worst-case scenario plan. If that happens, she will take out the RV and rush out with her family.

The Wang family members in prison were equally uneasy. Li would cry and complain to Wang Dashan, "You really can't spend money you found. Look, this is what caused the trouble. If the wolf takes it, just let it take it."

Wang Dashan lowered his head and remained silent. Sanya had also killed six people, one of whom was indeed the one with the scarred face. He also recognized that the six people were the same Da Yongren who had captured them.

If the magistrate is looking for these six people, then they should be fine.

But how do we explain the deaths of those six people?

Is it said that Sanya killed her?

Will the magistrate let Sanya go?

The more he thought about it, the more anxious he became, so he shouted outside, but no one paid any attention to him.

An hour can feel both slow and fast. Just as the magistrate was about to lose patience, the men he had sent out returned.

"How is it?" The magistrate asked anxiously, and Wang Yiyi couldn't help but prick up her ears as well.

The constable beamed with delight: "Indeed, there are six corpses. I've taken a look, and they are undoubtedly those of Da Yong."

"Good, good, good." The magistrate laughed heartily and became polite to Wang Yiyi as well: "You were right after all."

Wang Yiyi breathed a long sigh of relief.

You made the right bet!

A slight smile appeared on his face, but the magistrate's expression hardened again: "Those six men died from crossbow bolts. Crossbows are only used by the army. How did you know they died there?"

Wang Yiyi didn't expect the county magistrate to abandon her after using her, but now that the Wang family members were still in jail, it wasn't the time to act tough.

She feigned fear: "They were the generals who saved us. We ran into the woods and accidentally discovered the bodies. The money we needed to enter the city was taken from them."

It was no secret that a group of civilians were rescued by passing soldiers; even the county magistrate had heard about it. However, he was told that only two were killed, and six others escaped.

Perhaps he didn't receive the news in time, because the soldiers caught up with the man later. The crossbow bolts were all that the army had, and this family didn't have any of them.

Besides, a little girl shouldn't have the guts to lie.

He discovered six mediocre people, which is a great achievement no matter how you look at it.

Thinking of this, the magistrate smiled kindly: "You have done a good job. I will send someone to take you back to Shi County first thing tomorrow morning."

Wang Yiyi was naturally extremely grateful and praised the magistrate a few more times.

The man was released from prison, and all the silver was returned—eight taels, not a penny less. The magistrate even arranged for the family to stay in an inn.

It wasn't until they arrived at the inn that the Wang family came to their senses; they had really been released from prison.

Li, still somewhat incredulous, pulled Wang Yi along: "What did you say to the magistrate? He actually let us go."

Wang Dashan then asked, "Are they really those six people?"

Wang Yiyi understood what Wang Dashan meant and nodded slightly to him.

He then hugged Li's arm and smiled shyly, "Actually, it's nothing. Last night, I saw the direction those mediocre people fled in, so I pointed it out to the magistrate. I didn't expect that they would actually find them. The magistrate even praised me."

These words brought a sigh of relief to everyone. For ordinary people like them, sometimes being treated favorably by dignitaries made them even more apprehensive.

Daya looked around and came closer: "This is my first time staying at an inn. It's so nice, even better than our house. The magistrate is such a good man."

Er Ya had no interest in looking after the inn; she was exhausted from the past few days and all she wanted to do was sleep.

Three rooms were set up. Wang Dashan took his sons to another room, while Li Shi took Daya and Erya to another room.

This room was one that Wang Yiyi insisted on opening, and fortunately, Li Shi had enough money, so she agreed.

She wanted to go and take a look at the space.

She clearly remembered that she only had one crossbow bolt. She had to look for more bolts. Last time she entered the space, she only glanced at it briefly and didn't search carefully.

Arrows also exist in this era, but they are far inferior to those in space; otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to kill those mediocre people with a single blow.

She closed the door and entered the space.

There were no extra arrows, but the crossbow was full. Did the space have regenerative capabilities?

She darted out of the refrigerator and found five bottles of milk, five loaves of bread neatly arranged, and the eggs were all there too.

She stared in disbelief at the refrigerator in front of her, her eyes widening and turning redder until she finally couldn't help but swear.

In the apocalypse, she prayed countless times that food could be regenerated, so that she wouldn't have to go on adventures for food, and her parents wouldn't turn into zombies while searching for food.

She angrily picked up a piece of bread and took a bite, then picked up another piece of bread and took a bite.

What did all that frugality she had before amount to?

In the end, she didn't pick up the third piece of bread; she wasn't sure if there were any limitations to the space's regenerative capabilities.

Furthermore, she couldn't bear to waste anything that she had developed over many years.

After venting for a bit, she quickly calmed down and began to rejoice. With this cheat code, what did she have to worry about?

To test her spatial abilities, she took out all the weapons and food from the RV, which quickly piled up on the floor.

She lay on the bed with her legs crossed, going in to check every half hour. Each time, nothing changed, and she gradually went from feeling relaxed to becoming impatient.

Finally, when she checked again in the early hours of the morning, the food and weapons had been refreshed.

I checked the time inside the RV; it was just past midnight. It seems the space is refreshed only once a day.

She jumped up and down excitedly a couple of times, then moved the things she had moved out earlier back into the space.

He placed a crossbow bolt next to his pillow and finally fell asleep peacefully.
