Monster Tea Party

Chapter 5874 A Belated Thank You

Is there anything a girl can only do if a python stops in front of her?
……

The girl pursed her lips.

A hint of stubbornness appeared on his somewhat flustered face.

"Of course, you should express your gratitude in person."

and……

She wanted to be friends with the red-eyed python.

She was too embarrassed to say it out loud.

……

The man with the buzz cut was speechless.

What the girl said...

Right.

But when they learned that the object of their gratitude was a snake...

Something feels off again.

……

This girl...

The man with the buzz cut smiled.

That's surprisingly meticulous.

And... she has a heart that seems to live in a fairy tale.

……

"Ok."

Perhaps the girl's insistence was a bit naive, but the man with the buzz cut didn't feel the need to deny it.

As long as the girl is happy.

"In any case, today is a huge step forward."

The aloof snake finally acknowledged the child.

Was the snake also surprised by the girl's resilience?
……

"Ok!"

The girl nodded emphatically.

Today is definitely a major step forward.

She felt very happy.

……

Seeing the child's happy expression, the man with the buzz cut felt even more that he should let the child do whatever he wanted.

Anyway, it doesn't affect anyone else.

Who hasn't done something silly as a child?

……

Not only the reptile house staff, but many staff members in the zoo have started to recognize the girl.

They heard the girl's story.

It seems a bit unbelievable...

Would they really go to such lengths for a snake?
Is it really necessary?

I found it very interesting.

The girl is like Peter Pan from a fairy tale who never grows up.

They have their own set of rules for doing things.

……

For girls, coming to the zoo is like an elderly person going to the park to play chess or to the square to dance every morning—it's become a habit.

……

No one expected this...

This habit of girls...

It's been going on for so long...

……

lifetime……

What are some things you can stick to for a lifetime?
Doing exercise?
read?

Do you buy roasted sweet potatoes every winter?
……

Anyway...

No one would have thought...

We're going to the zoo.

……

The girl has grown up.

The girl got into university.

The girl started working.

The girl got married.

The woman has a child.

……

I don't know when it started...

No one tells a girl anymore that she's grown up.

Instead, she has gray hair.

She has grown old.

……

What remains unchanged is...

Girls still come to the zoo.

Let's go to the reptile house.

Come see the red-eyed python.

Tell it about your recent situation.

As for thanking...

The first red-eyed python waited behind the glass window, waiting for her to pass by.
She thought she was dreaming.

A python with red eyes...

Waiting for her?!

……

She looked into the eyes of the red-eyed python.

The red-eyed python seemed... to be looking at her?

……

The girl was completely unaware that she was moving her arms and legs in unison.

……

The man with the buzz cut and the staff were also surprised.

They looked at each other.

A hint of emotion appeared on their faces.

After all, they had seen the girl's hard work.

Now it seems...

The girl's hard work has finally paid off.

……

The man with the buzz cut and the staff laughed.

Congratulations to the child!

She has worked hard.

……

Watching the girl's back as she moved in unison, their smiles deepened.

……

The girl was completely unaware that she had walked to the glass window with both hands and feet in unison.

……

The girl stared at the red-eyed python, her mouth opening and closing several times.

No sound came out.

The girl was very upset.

They were also very eager.

If she delayed any longer, the red-eyed python would leave again.

The girl's fingernails dug into the back of her hand.

A tingling pain spread through the air.

The girl felt she was more awake now.

……

She raised her eyes.

The previously slightly blurry vision became clear and discernible.

Still.

The girl looked stunned.

The red-eyed python was still near the glass window.

Very close.

like……

The girl could reach out and touch it.

……

The girl unconsciously raised her hand.

My finger is pressed against the glass window.

She leaned her face closer.

……

“…Sisi.”

After a long while, the girl finally managed to squeeze out a sound from her uncontrollable throat.

She paused slightly after saying that.

She shouted...

It was the name I gave to the red-eyed python.

……

The red-eyed python was still watching her.

……

The girl breathed a sigh of relief.

Yes.

How could a red-eyed python understand her words?

……

The girl smiled slightly.

Then, unable to suppress the smile on his face...

She couldn't help but cover her face.

"sorry."

A muffled sound came from the face covered by a hand.

"I……"

She was overjoyed.

She couldn't help it...

"you……"

……

The girl took a deep breath.

The corners of his mouth were turned up very high.

……

After a while, the girl finally felt calmer.

She lowered her hand slightly from her face.

……

“…Sisi.”

The girl still called him by that name.

Otherwise, she wouldn't know how to start.
……

"you……"

The girl paused, then a hint of embarrassment appeared in her eyes, "This is the name I gave you."

"茜... means red."

"...Your eyes are red..."

"That's why I named you this."

……

"……never mind."

Seeing that the red-eyed python didn't react at all, the girl pursed her lips.

"It doesn't matter."

"that……"

The girl took a deep breath.

After the initial joy faded, a sense of helplessness arose.

"I……"

"Before……"

The girl felt somewhat annoyed with herself.

Why is it so bumpy?
She had thought about it countless times that day.

She revised and perfected her words to the red-eyed python countless times.

When the moment came, all her previous preparations seemed to have been in vain...

……

The girl's fingernails dug into the back of her hand.

Think quickly.

She had said those words countless times in her heart...

……

"boom!"

The girl reached out and smacked herself hard on the head.

The staff member who was watching the girl and the man with the buzz cut were both a little startled.

what happened?
Why are you hitting yourself for no reason?
……

hiss~
The girl gasped.

But because of this, she felt calmer.

She clenched her hands tightly.

Don't miss the opportunity.

What if her hesitation and silence cause the red-eyed python to misunderstand?
……

The girl quickly looked up.

Ok.

The red-eyed python stood perfectly still in front of her.

Just a stone's throw away.

……

The girl smiled.

"Sissi."

"Thank you."

The girl thanked him earnestly.

Then she let out a soft breath.

This is a thank you...

I'm really late.

She felt completely relaxed.

at last……

She finally said thank you to the red-eyed python in person.

……

The girl's eyebrows and eyes relaxed.

"Thank you for saving me."

"So much time has passed..."
