“Go, search!”
Suddenly, a team of men in suits rushed in and started searching the area.
Jamie swiveled his head and stared at the restroom. Could it be related to that man?
He was in a daze when the man in black rushed out from the restroom and extended a bloodied hand. Then, he slipped something into Jamie’s pocket and whispered in the boy’s ear, “Brat, I’ll come back for it!”
Soon, the man disappeared into the stairwell. The team of men in suits immediately went after him.
Jamie was stunned. Wow, was that a scene from a crime film? That was so cool!
Snapping back to reality, he took out a small box from his pocket. When he opened it, there was a tiny golden chip about the size of a bean.
Studying it carefully, he wondered, what could this be? It doesn’t look like gold. I think it’s some electronic stuff like the kind Robbie is obsessed with.
“Seed! Seed!”
Jamie was deep in thought when little Fifi’s beak parted and ate the chip, thinking it was a seed.
Jamie was dumbfounded. He immediately patted Fifi’s green head and shouted, “Fifi, spit it out! Spit it out!”
Fifi shrieked immediately. Instead of spitting it out, it swallowed the chip out of shock.
“Ah!” Jamie freaked out at once. He tugged Fifi’s tail and swung it around. “You can’t eat that. Spit it out! Spit it out, now!”
Fifi was seeing stars from Jamie’s rough action. It rolled its eyes while its tongue lolled out weakly.
“Ah! Jamie! What are you doing?” yelled Ellie.
She rushed over and took Fifi from him. Cradling it in her arms carefully, she demanded, “Why did you bully Fifi? I’m going to tell Mommy!”
“No, Ellie—”
“Jamie, it’s wrong to bully Fifi,” said Robbie sternly.
“I… Fifi…” Jamie pointed at himself before pointing at Fifi helplessly.
