Chapter 744: 236: Got slapped in the face _5
Toby trusted her so much!
“Just because Viola Thompson is pretty?” Annie asked.
Toby was stunned, “What’s pretty about her?”
Seeing this, Annie sneered, a hint of sarcasm in her eyes. “Aren’t you men all attracted by beauty? It’s because Viola Thompson is pretty, so you trust her so much, don’t you?”
Toby couldn’t help but laugh at Annie’s words, “No, I wonder, are all the people in your country like you? You can only see the surface of people and things. We’ve been with the captain for a day, and all you can see is that she’s pretty?”
“Does she have any other advantages?” Annie countered.
Toby continued, “Back at the entrance, if it weren’t for the team leader encouraging us, we would have fallen behind! And who was it that couldn’t carry their bag in the afternoon, and she helped them out? You’re both girls, don’t you reflect on why the team leader is so outstanding, while all you can do is secretly be jealous of others?”
Annie was the epitome of high and mighty.
She thought herself quite capable, but she was nothing.
Hearing this, Annie was stupefied.
She didn’t say a word.
But she felt very uncomfortable in her heart.
She didn’t ask for Viola Thompson’s help.
It was voluntary by Viola!
Toby seemed to read Annie’s mind, “You think the team leader wants to help you? If we all didn’t have our fates tied together, who would want to be in a group with someone like you! But since we’re in one team, we have to work together!”
Annie looked up at Toby, “Save me the lecture. We’re talking about whether Viola Thompson went to slack off or not! I said, if she didn’t, then I’ll eat shit!”
“You better be prepared then.”
Toby didn’t say anything more and continued working.
Viola Thompson made two fishing hooks and lines and found some earthworms in the soil to serve as bait. She then set up the fishing gear by the river.
Soon she had two automatic fishing devices ready.
These were all things she had learned from previous outdoor survival experiences.
With these fishing devices, there was no need to guard the line. If a fish bit, the fishing device would automatically spring up, and the fish couldn’t get away.
After setting up the fishing gear, Viola Thompson went on to set up two traps for catching wild rabbits and two traps for capturing wild pigs.
After all this, she discovered a large patch of wild berries.
These berries were very red, sweet and sour, and tasted delightful. They were hard to find.
However, Viola Thompson didn’t have a container to carry the berries, so she went back to the campsite to get one. Luckily, the place where she found the berries was not far from the campsite.
Viola Thompson jogged back to the campsite.
Seeing her return empty-handed, Annie revealed a knowing smile and said loudly, “Captain Viola is back. How much food did she bring back for us? We’ve washed all the pots and pans.”
She wanted to see how Viola Thompson would step down.
Viola Thompson looked up slightly, “I just finished setting up the traps. I came back to get a bag for the wild fruits.”
Getting a bag for wild fruits.
Who could be smarter than Viola Thompson?
Annie smiled, “So Captain Viola has even prepared some dessert fruit for us. I have a bag here, you go pick the wild fruits! When everyone gets back, I’ll tell them the good news.”
Viola Thompson took a bag from Annie and went back to pick the berries.
Before long, she had filled the entire bag.
After picking the berries, Viola Thompson went to check the traps.
Both fishing devices had caught fish, yielding two fat and large cold-water fish.
By the looks of it, each weighed over two pounds.
Next, Viola Thompson went to inspect the rabbit traps.
The rabbit traps were ineffective, with no prey, but the wild pig trap caught a cute little Peppa.
Perhaps due to the survival environment, little Peppa was not fat, with muscle weighing around a hundred pounds.
Such a cute little Peppa.
Snorting while digging in the dirt.
With its cuteness, Peppa was best served braised.
Having starved all day, Viola Thompson seemed to see roast pork knuckles, pork chops, and braised pork calling out to her.
Seeing the wild pig trap’s success, Viola Thompson destroyed the rabbit traps.
This little Peppa was enough to provide protein for all of them.
Quickly, Viola Thompson sent the adorable little wild pig to its end and carried it back on her shoulder.
