Renee pursed her lips into a smile. "Zephyr says you’re handsome."
Henry Stark raised an eyebrow slightly, a faint smile playing on his thin lips. "He has good taste, then."
Zephyr chirped proudly, "Of course I do!"
Henry Stark took a locator and a camera out of a black tool bag.
Renee picked up the locator and beckoned to Zephyr. "Come here."
"What for?" Zephyr asked, confused.
"Like I just told you, I need to put these two things on you," Renee explained. "You’ll fly to where that human male is, and we’ll take a look at the situation."
Zephyr asked hesitantly, "If you put this on a falcon, will the falcon die?"
Hearing this, Renee explained with an amused laugh, "You won’t die. It’s just tied to you. It won’t hurt."
"It won’t hurt?" Zephyr was finally relieved. "Okay, good. That’s good."
"So can I put them on you now?"
Zephyr nodded his head.
Soon, Renee had fastened the locator and the camera to Zephyr’s claw and neck, respectively.
"All set."
Zephyr looked down curiously. "Is this the high-tech stuff from your human world?"
"Just a bit of gadgetry, not really high-tech," Renee said with a smile.
"So can I go now?" Zephyr asked.
Renee nodded. "Yes. We can now see where you are, what you see, and what you hear through my phone."
"How amazing!" Zephyr exclaimed, then flapped his wings and flew toward the door.
Renee did something on her phone, and the feed from Zephyr’s camera appeared on the large screen in the living room.
After flying out of the villa, Zephyr shot straight into the sky. The screen showed nothing but a blurry darkness as the fierce whistle of the wind clearly conveyed its astonishing speed, as if it were tearing the air apart.
Michelle Fuller grabbed a bag of taro chips and started eating again.
Sean Fuller wanted to play on his phone, but he had just picked it up when he threw it away again.
"What’s wrong?" Michelle turned to look at him. "Don’t want your phone anymore?"
Sean Fuller sighed. "Yvonne Morgan texted me again. She’s so annoying."
"What did she send this time?" Michelle held out her hand to him.
Sean bent down, picked up the phone from the carpet, and handed it over.
Michelle tapped it open and immediately started laughing.
Seeing this, Renee raised an eyebrow. "What did Yvonne Morgan send?"
"A handwritten letter." Michelle couldn’t stop laughing. "A love poem. See for yourself."
Renee took the phone and looked closely, her brow furrowing slightly. A strange expression crossed her face.
"Renee, you reply," Michelle said with a laugh.
"Okay." Renee agreed, typed out a few words, and sent them.
Renee (as Sean Fuller): [My heart’s pounding...]
Michelle leaned over for a look. "Talk about a half-assed reply, hahaha."
Renee raised an eyebrow and looked up to see some pinpricks of light appearing on the TV screen, looking like the lights of houses.
But in the blink of an eye, the tiny light sources were magnified instantly.
Zephyr was getting closer and closer to the buildings.
A few seconds later, he folded his wings and landed on a windowsill.
Amidst the whistling wind, Renee heard Zephyr’s chirping call.
"Renee, this is it. The human is tied up in here."
The room was dim, and only the vague outlines of some furniture were visible.
Zephyr: "The lights are off now. When it was bright during the day, I could see very clearly."
Renee glanced at the location displayed on her phone and said softly, "He’s at Aethelgard Estates, Phase Two."
Henry Stark immediately searched for the location on a map. "It’s in the Glavan District. A high-end residential complex."
Zephyr flew to another position, and a huge floor-to-ceiling window appeared in the frame.
Inside, a few downlights were on, casting a warm yellow glow on a man in a bathrobe. He sat on a black sofa with his hair still wet.
The man in the bathrobe held a glass of red wine, his eyes slightly narrowed, looking quite content and comfortable.
Zephyr: "He’s the one I reported. He’s a total psycho."
The camera could only capture the man’s side profile. He was drinking continuously, one glass of red wine after another.
