Chapter 350: Chapter 258: Extremely Ferocious_3

Both of their expressions changed abruptly.

"What do you mean?!"

Thinking back to the wild cat they found in the room earlier, they sensed trouble.

Could it have been eaten?

The driver forced himself to calm down; he knew that if the snake were gone, things would not end well for him.

"Wait! Since the wild cat was squatting here just now, it means the snake wasn’t eaten!"

As he spoke, the driver knelt down and began rummaging through the piled up household trash, roughly pushing aside the debris.

Indeed, he soon spotted a section of the snake’s body hidden inside.

"Here it is!"

The two men immediately pushed the driver aside.

Seeing the little snake wriggle further inside, the three of them exhaled in relief simultaneously.

It was moving; it was alive.

Compared to the driver’s rough actions earlier, the person now searching took extra care, as if afraid of hurting the young python. After all, this was related to how much reward they would receive.

One went to catch the snake while the other took out a new box they were carrying, to put the snake in.

The driver stood to the side, his gaze following the other person’s black carry bag. Inside was his reward!

Swallowing, the driver forced himself to look away and tried to remain calm.

Then, he saw the wild cats wandering not far from the window.

He approached the window, making shooing motions to scare them away.

However, the wild cat not only didn’t leave but also crouched down and stared in this direction.

That posture was full of a rogue’s air.

Glancing up slightly, the driver noticed several more wild cats squatting nearby!

"There are too many cats lurking outside, why are they all staring this way? Can they smell the snake?"

The wild cats in this area would eat anything, from moths and grasshoppers to little birds and snakes; perhaps they really were eyeing the snake inside the room.

Are snakes raised by humans especially delicious?

He didn’t know whether that was the case or not, but the wild cats outside had to be chased away as well.

"That would attract too much attention. How can we drive away the cats outside without alarming others?" said the driver.

He saw one of them take something out of the black backpack, quickly go to the window while holding that object, open the window, and raise their arm toward the outside.

Could it be...?

The driver’s heart pounded as he breathed more cautiously.

He silently took a step back.

Then, as the person at the window moved, the driver saw the item in his hand.

An infrared thermometer gun.

Or to be specific, a handheld thermometer.

With a targeting laser dot.

Driver: "..."

Outside the window, the lingering wild cats were instantly attracted by the moving red dot, chasing it frantically across the street to where the residents lived.

The driver took his gaze back inside.

In the room, the person searching through the pile of junk finally flipped out the little python.

The driver warned, "This snake is extremely fierce! Don’t get bitten!"

The person scoffed softly, clearly not taking the driver’s advice seriously.

A small python like this, what would it matter even if it did bite?

Within half a minute, as he was placing the snake into the box, his finger got bitten.

The driver’s eyelid twitched violently.

Keeping a steady expression, the driver urged, "Alright, the goods are in your hands, after checking the goods, what about what I’m due to receive?"

One of them threw a black carry bag in front of him.

"Count it?"

"No need. We’re square now, let’s part ways!"

The driver opened the bag, took a cursory look at the money inside, grabbed the bag, and ran out.

Those who obtained the snake didn’t plan to linger either.

But before they left, they saw the patient in the bedroom.

They sneered with scorn.

Eliminating a partner to get a larger share of the reward is not uncommon.

They didn’t bother with it; getting the little python was their mission. As long as they weren’t implicated, they wouldn’t spare it a second thought.

After closing the door, they left quickly, taking the snake to exchange for their reward.

When leaving, the person who had been bitten by the python felt a stinging pain in his finger, his vision momentarily blurring.

Shaking his head, he refocused on what was in front of him.

He ignored the burning sensation; as for the blurred vision, it was probably due to lack of rest. The sudden call to come here for the pickup had been hasty.

Outside, the driver, carrying the bag, ran towards the parking spot.

Excitement! Thrill!

All this money is mine!

As for the one lying in the rental and the other one just bitten, who cares!

With no empty slots nearby, the parking spot was a bit far.

Opening the car door, he tossed the black carry bag onto the passenger seat and climbed into the car, ready to leave.

Bang!

A hand grabbed the car door just as it was about to shut.

The driver looked outside.

Through the car window, he saw a pointed chin.
