Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 406

And now the third-born brother, a medical professional, had to respectfully call her Grandmaster.

“I’m just smart, I guess?” Juniper said, looking up nonchalantly.

Harold was speechless. So was everyone else.

“I’ve always been a fast learner,” Juniper explained earnestly. “I see something, I can do it. I learn something, I master it.”

She didn't dare tell them that she’d learned most of her medical knowledge from books. Later, when she met the doctors at the base, she started following them around, originally assigned to do menial tasks. But as she worked, she just… picked everything up. Eventually, the doctors stopped letting her hang around, complaining that she was there to sabotage them and steal their jobs.

Silence fell over the room again, everyone wearing a complex expression.

“Why is everyone so quiet?” Juniper asked, glancing around the room, her tone perfectly calm.

Of course they had no response. Because in her presence, they all felt like idiots.

“Ahem.” Sensing the awkwardness, Juniper decided to change the subject. “Let’s talk about my middle brother’s condition.”

Middle brother? Hearing her call him that, Harold paused, momentarily confused. It was quite a promotion.

“Hey, I’m the—” Melvin started to object, wanting to stake his claim as the second brother. Juniper simply gave him a warning look, and he immediately deflated.

Harold handed Juniper his previous medical reports, his expression grave. “The location is too difficult to reach. Every doctor I’ve seen recommended a craniotomy.”

The only exception was Master Nocturne, who had suggested a needle-based treatment was possible. Unfortunately, the master was impossible to find.
