Chapter 80: Are You Freaking Blind?

The noisy mental patients in the room finally left. Lin Fan felt the commotion had disturbed his pet eagle's rest. He even noticed the eagle trembling, probably frightened.

Evil Crow: I was just stretching my wings.

Night fell!

Ward 666 was brightly lit.

"Old Zhang, do you think Professor Birdman is right?" Lin Fan asked.

Old Zhang replied, "There's some truth to it. The eagle really seems like it needs to be broken in, otherwise it won't obey."

Lin Fan agreed. "Then you go to sleep. I'll take over from here."

"Don't need me to stay with you?"

"No. It's good for your health to sleep early. I've noticed you've lost a lot of weight recently."

"I feel like I've lost a lot of weight too."

Old Zhang obediently lay in bed, glancing at the crow. As he watched, he drifted off to sleep.

Lin Fan found a rope and, under the Evil Crow's puzzled gaze, tied it around its feet.

What is this human doing?

Tying such a thin rope around my feet, who are you insulting?

It could easily snap the rope with a little effort.

Sigh!

As expected of a foolish human, their perception is flawed.

However, the Evil Crow didn't want to harm this human. Humans who could see through its majestic form were rare. Killing one meant one less, and keeping him around had its benefits.

Lin Fan rested his chin in his hands, staring intently at the eagle.

The Evil Crow was puzzled.

Looking at me with such adoring eyes, are you captivated by my magnificence?

Not even sleeping, just to do this.

Haha!

Very well, I, the Evil Crow, will grant you this opportunity. Since you so desire to gaze upon me, I shall allow it, letting you deeply feel my favor upon you.

Perhaps you will never forget this night.

Are all evil beings so narcissistic and chuunibyou?

But these weren't the important points.

The two continued to stare at each other.

Lin Fan believed Professor Birdman's words and was determined to maintain eye contact with the eagle, neither of them allowed to sleep, until one of them became afraid.

Time passed quickly.

The sky outside was dark.

The wind was a bit boisterous tonight, whistling loudly.

It was already two or three in the morning.

The Evil Crow thought it was time to sleep. Although it was an evil being, it had good sleeping habits. There was no verbal communication between them, but the general meaning was clear.

That is… Human, the magnificent me has stared at you for so long, you should be content. Now is the time to sleep. We can continue staring tomorrow.

Then, it slowly lowered its eyelids, covering its ruby-like eyes.

Lin Fan grabbed the eagle's body and pried its eyelids open.

The Evil Crow was a bit stunned.

Lowly human, do you desire to gaze upon the magnificent me so much?

Very well, I shall satisfy your humble request. Although it's late, I shall continue to stare at you for a while longer.

Its status among evil beings wasn't high.

Usually, it was used for surveillance.

This time, it entered Yanhai City under orders to investigate the situation. Encountering a human who praised it, it naturally didn't mind playing along.

More time passed.

The Evil Crow wanted to sleep, but the moment it closed its eyes, the lowly human grabbed it and pried its drooping eyelids open again.

Damn it!

Human, you're going too far!

The Evil Crow was a little angry. No matter what, it was a true evil being. Even if its power was weak, the dignity of an evil being was definitely not something a lowly human could trample on.

It pretended to stare at Lin Fan, and when it thought he had let his guard down, it pecked at Lin Fan's eyes. It wanted to peck his eyes out.

Clang!

A crisp sound.

It pecked Lin Fan's eyelid.

The Evil Crow's beak cracked. The pain made it flap its wings, wanting to escape, but the large hand firmly pressed it down, preventing it from going anywhere.

Gradually, dawn broke.

March 11th!

The weather was fine.

Qingshan Mental Hospital was warm and harmonious. The scene in Ward 666 continued.

Lin Fan remained motionless, staring intently at the Evil Crow, while the Evil Crow swayed, its eyelids drooping, wanting to sleep. But the moment its eyelids drooped, the lowly human pried them open again.

The Evil Crow's eyes, once bright as rubies, were now somewhat cloudy.

"Sleeping soundly, aren't you?" Old Zhang sat up, rubbing his eyes, and asked curiously, "Still haven't slept?"

"No, I'm watching it. Don't disturb me, I think I'm almost there," Lin Fan said.

Old Zhang took out his soy milk, drinking what he believed to be Sprite, a satisfied look on his face. Then he leaned closer to Lin Fan and stared at the eagle with him.

What a cute pet.

He, like Lin Fan, loved pets.

Now, the Evil Crow was the only creature that had endured such a prolonged staring contest with Lin Fan, and in a state of terror.

Evil beings were inherently terrifying. Their狰狞 appearance and ferocious aura were enough to intimidate anyone.

However, Lin Fan's smile was even more potent, making the Evil Crow's heart pound with fear.

Time ticked by.

Li Ang passed by the ward, intending to inform the two dangerous patients to go for a run on the lawn. But seeing the situation inside, he shuddered, his face turning pale. The two were staring intently at a crow.

This situation was a bit terrifying.

He retracted his hand from the doorknob, pretending he hadn't seen anything.

Do as you please, I was just passing by, nothing else.

March 12th!

Late night!

Another beautiful night, the wind howled.

Whoosh! It blew.

The Evil Crow felt like it was about to die. It knew it had to leave this place, or something bad would happen.

This lowly human had stared at it for far too long.

"Damn human, it seems I have to reveal my true form to show you what terror truly is."

At this moment, a thick black mist emanated from the Evil Crow. The sound of its bones shifting echoed, its sharp claws became even sharper, tearing through the bedsheet. Then, its body gradually grew larger. Originally only the size of two palms, it now at least doubled in size.

Its appearance became狰狞 and terrifying.

"Whoa!"

Lin Fan's mouth hung open in shock. He had never imagined his eagle could grow bigger.

The Evil Crow saw Lin Fan's expression.

It sneered.

Scared by the magnificent me?

Too bad!

You've gone too far. I can't forgive you, even if you've praised me before.

However…

"Don't move, we have to keep staring."

Lin Fan grabbed the Evil Crow's body, straightened it, and pried its eyelids open, continuing the staring contest.

Evil Crow: ???

Are you truly blind?

Didn't you see what the magnificent Evil Crow has become?
