Chapter 1255: 323: Wishful Abacus, Show Some Love_3 Chapter 1255: 323: Wishful Abacus, Show Some Love_3 What kind of person is Viola's friend?
Why would they carry poisonous scorpions and snakes?
Viola hadn't expected that Bella Windham would bring all these things. She revealed a shallow smile, “Don't worry, little brother, these creatures are not poisonous. You don't need to be afraid.”
Edward Thompson said, “But that's a pit viper.”
The pit viper is the most famous venomous snake in Asia.
It also goes by another name – the Five-step Snake.
The implication being if a pit viper takes a bite at you, certain death would ensue before you could take five steps.
Non-poisonous? Seriously?
Who would believe that?
Identifying the type of snake by Edward put Viola in an awkward position, she said smiling, “Little brother, although it is somewhat venomous, don't worry. Little Red is a pet raised by Bella Windham, it's very docile and won't bite people randomly. If you don't believe me, watch!”
While speaking, Viola picked up the pit viper, playing with it in her hand.
She really isn't afraid!
Edward, watching, had goosebumps all over, “Viola, snakes are cold-blooded creatures, be careful.”
“It's okay.” Viola stroked the head of the pit viper, “Long time no see, Little Red. Bella Windham, why have you brought it along?”
Edward swallowed, pointing to the giant scorpion next to him, “Does that one not bite either?”
If he hadn't misidentified, he had seen this scorpion once when he was filming.
But the scorpion Edward had seen had its poison barb removed.
At the time, the director had explained that this scorpion is the most toxic scorpion in the world.
If you get stung by it, even if an immortal were to descend to the earthly world, they would not be able to save you.
“It doesn't bite, they are all so intelligent.” Viola stroke the snake with one hand, and with her other hand, reached out to the big scorpion, “Little Green, Little Blue, come over here.”
Oddly enough, the scorpions seemed to understand Viola's words and crawled up her arm.
Seeing this scene, Edward felt overwhelmed!
“Little sister, are you not afraid at all?”
“What's there to be afraid of?” Viola continued, “Little brother, they are actually all very gentle. If you don't believe it, you can touch them.”
Seeing Viola, holding a snake in her left hand and a poisonous scorpion in the right, Edward retreated a few steps.
Too terrifying!
Are all the girls these days so brave?
“Brother, come and try, I swear, I'm not tricking you! Even if they bite you, I can still save you!”
Edward: “…” Thanks, but no thanks!
After a moment, Edward swallowed and then asked, “Viola, how did you meet that friend?”
“Are you referring to Bella Windham?” Viola asked.
“Yeah.” Edward nodded.
Viola said, “Acquaintance was borne out of a quarrel.”
Actually, it was more of mutual admiration.
One is a Divine Doctor known for bringing the dead back to life, the other is a top poisoner.
Edward swallowed again.
Viola turned her head towards Edward and continued, “Little brother, you head back to the hall first, I will first find a place to settle these three little fellows.”
Three little fellows?
Edward looked at what was in Viola's hand…
Is, is this supposed to be the three little fellows?
“Alright.” Edward took the red suitcase from the trunk, “Should I bring this to the room next to yours first?”
“That works.”
Edward continued, “Little sister, there's nothing strange inside this, right?”
The scene of Little Red crawling out of the suitcase earlier had left a deep impression on Edward.
It was his first time learning that there are girls who would keep poisonous snakes and scorpions as pets and even carry them around…
“Shouldn't be anything else, right?” Even Viola wasn't confident about this.
Edward paused mid-step, stuck between wanting to throw the suitcase and not doing so…
“Don't worry, brother, even if there is something else, they won't crawl out. I've already locked the suitcase.” Viola added.
Hearing what Viola said, Edward felt even more panicked.
“Brother, I'm leaving first.”
Watching Viola's retreating figure, Edward wanted to say something but eventually didn't say anything.
He is the big brother!
If Viola, a girl, isn't scared, then he should be braver than her!
With this thought in mind, Edward steeled himself mentally.
You are the world's best big brother!
Boosting himself with this self-affirmation, Edward safely delivered the suitcase to the room next to Viola's bedroom.
The moment he closed the door, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Next, Edward went down to the grand hall.
Seeing the scene before him, he thought he was hallucinating.
