The shop owner glanced over at the neighboring store and replied, "That shop? It's been closed for business for quite a while now."

Right after saying this, her face seemed to brighten with recollection, and she sighed, “Its owner, Lilyana Rayne, had remarkable skills, but it's a shame this place is so remote. Running a business here is already challenging, and handmade clothing like Lilyana's, which lacks the appeal of big-name brands, doesn't attract young people. The costs involved make it almost impossible to sustain the business in this Location."

Listening attentively to her Lament, Ariana realized that Lilyana must be the owner of the closed shop, and the woman in front of her knew Lilyana. Seizing the opportunity, she quickly inquired, “Could you tell me where Lilyana resides?"

Hearing Ariana's request, the woman scrutinized her with a mix of suspicion and caution.

“Why do you want to know the old lady's address?" she asked warily.
