Robbie felt a stream of warm liquid flowing down his head. He instinctively shuddered and shifted his gaze up.
“Ah! Fifi went number two on Robbie's head!” shrieked Jamie as he pointed at Fifi.
“Eww!” said Ellie. She closed her eyes immediately and commented, “That is so gross.”
Robbie's face was red with anger. Gritting his teeth, he growled, “Fifi!”
Fifi sobbed and quickly flew to the other side before landing on the sofa. It looked fearfully at Robbie and said, “Scared. Scared.”
“Scared? You went number two on my head!” complained Robbie as his tiny face flushed red with anger.
“Fifi was probably frightened by that screech just now, Robbie. Don't be mad at it,” cooed Henry. “Let's go clean up for now.”
After that, Henry waved, and someone hurried over to get Robbie to the side. They washed his hair.
Fortunately, they were using the better car that day, and it had everything they needed.
“Fifi, come here,” ordered Ellie as she extended her hand to the bird.
The parrot flew into her arms immediately and rubbed her cheek with its furry head. It seemed like the parrot was trying to butter the girl up.
“Never go number two on someone else's head again, okay?” taught Ellie patiently. “Robbie takes his personal hygiene very seriously, and he'll get mad if you do so.”
“Scared. Scared,” repeated Fifi endlessly.
“What was that, anyway? I was frightened too,” asked Jamie curiously. “It sounded like a monster.”
“I think it was an eagle?” replied Spencer after considering the situation. “It's strange, though. Rokan Hill may have a variety of species, and we have seen the occasional wild animals, but there shouldn't be any eagles around...”
“I think that screech came from that car,” said Henry. He was getting older, but his senses were still more sensitive than most. He hypothesized, “Could someone be keeping an eagle as a pet?”
“Who would keep an eagle?” said Spencer while frowning, “Wait. Erihal is a warrior clan, and rumor has it that Mr. Lindberg likes to keep wild animals as pets. Earlier, we suspected that the residents in Northridge were from the Lindberg family. It seems that the rumor might be true.”
“Have Bruce investigate the matter,” instructed Henry grimly. “I don't want to risk those barbarians hurting the kids.”
“Understood,” replied Spencer, who then gave out the instructions immediately.
