Our neighborhood has been transported again.

Chapter 35 Cruel
Qin Ziwen had initially planned to have the harpy eagle guard the cage, but after his conversation with Wang Jun, he had to abandon the idea.

Leaving harpy eagles, which are not good at night fighting, outside at night is still too risky.

But since we've already recruited them, we can't let them do all this for nothing.

He decided to take it with him tomorrow to draw a map of the surrounding area!

With a radar in the sky providing early warning, safety has been greatly improved.

As for the fish trap, we'll remove it tonight and hide it somewhere else tomorrow night.

He refused to believe that anyone would be so bold as to search for a fish trap inch by inch along the riverbank in the dead of night.

Pull up the rope and scoop the fish trap out of the river.

Wow~
Something was thrashing about inside the cage.

The flapping sound attracted the harpy eagle's attention. It cried out twice, spread its wings, and clumsily tiptoed closer to the riverbank.

Its neck was stretched out very long, and its big eyes were staring straight at the place inside the cage.

"You greedy glutton, you're useless, all you do is stare at the food."

Seeing this, Qin Ziwen laughed and scolded, then lightly kicked its rear end.

The harpy eagle wasn't angry; after seeing what was in the cage, it cried out even more excitedly.

Qin Ziwen used his arm to lift the cage out of the water completely.

Clear river water overflowed from the cracks.

A large fish, which looked to weigh at least two or three pounds, was frantically thrashing its tail.

"It looks like a tigerfish again."

Among tigerfish, this one should still be a juvenile.

Apart from the tigerfish, the trap was empty; even if there were a few small fish, they probably all ended up in the tigerfish's stomach.

Once you're away from the riverbank, shake the fish trap vigorously to knock the tigerfish to the ground.

"Eat."

Upon receiving the command, the harpy eagle eagerly pecked at the tigerfish's head.

The tigerfish, which had been jumping around just moments before, instantly fell into a peaceful sleep.

The enormous claws slammed down on the tigerfish's head, squeezing its head flat with its four fingers.

The eagle pecked down, tearing off large pieces of fish meat, and wolfed them down.

With each bite, the harpy eagle would raise its head and glance to the side.

"What are you looking at?"

Following the harpy eagle's gaze.

"rustle."

Suddenly, the sound of leaves rustling came from the bushes, followed by a figure fleeing in panic.

"Horned Eagle, seize him!"

Upon receiving the command, the harpy eagle instantly released its claws, flapped its wings, and soared into the sky, grabbing at the figure's back.

His shoulders were grabbed by the harpy eagle that attacked from behind, and he stumbled forward and fell.

"what!!!"

A scream rang out, followed by the man's cry, "Help! Murder! Ah!"

"Shut him up," Qin Ziwen said coldly.

From the familiar voice and the fact that he was here at this time, Qin Ziwen recognized him and guessed his behavior.

Qin Ziwu took out a wood-chopping knife from his waist and walked over quickly.

He slashed Liu Changgen's mouth with the back of the knife, yelling, "My brother told you to shut up!"

Liu Changgen suffered a severe blow, and a large amount of blood gushed from his nose and mouth.

He frantically groped on the ground with both hands, grabbed a stone, but before he could hold it, Qin Ziwu kicked him in the face.

Liu Changgen almost fainted.

Qin Ziwen walked over, his eyelids lowered, "You came here just now to steal my cage, didn't you?"

"Is that right? Ouch, that hurts! Make it let go." Liu Changgen's head was almost spinning from that kick, but the excruciating pain in his shoulder brought him back to his senses.

The harpy eagle's two claws gripped his shoulders like hydraulic clamps.

"Didn't I say it was okay to buy it? Why did you steal it?" "I didn't steal it! I didn't steal it!"

"Keep your voice down, you idiot, let go of my claws."

Upon receiving the command, the harpy eagle released its claws, flapped its wings twice, and ran to the side, staring intently at Liu Changgen.

Its favorite food is arboreal mammals, such as monkeys and sloths.

The thing in front of me looks a bit like a monkey.

It whetted its appetite.

"I'll ask you one more time, why did you steal?"

Liu Changgen said with a long face, "I can't afford it, the price you offered is too high."

His face and shoulders were very sore just now, but now they feel a little numb.

I felt a persistent, indescribable swelling and discomfort, and my head was also a little dizzy.

Qin Ziwen nodded. "That's a good reason. Actually, I don't like killing people. I'm a pretty kind person, but now that we've had such a serious conflict, I'm worried that you'll resent me and take revenge on me from behind one day. Do you understand what I mean?"

"I won't, I won't, I'm not the kind of person who holds grudges," Liu Changgen shook his head desperately.

"Really? Then swear it."

"I swear, I will never cause you any more trouble! If I do, may my whole family die."

Qin Ziwen nodded; he seemed to believe him.

He got up and called his younger brother and the harpy eagle to leave.

Liu Changgen lowered his head, reached out and touched his nose, spreading his fingers to reveal that his fingertips were covered in red blood.

A hint of resentment flashed in his eyes.

This young man is too soft-hearted to retaliate? If he doesn't get revenge, I'll change his name! He's never suffered such a loss before.

And what's with that big bird? How come such a big bird listens to him?
I've never heard of anyone in the neighborhood keeping such a big bird. How come he not only has a cage but also such a big bird?

He turned his head away, his resentful gaze secretly fixed on the direction Qin Ziwen had left.

The next second, his expression froze.

Because that kid was walking backwards, their eyes met.

Seeing the resentment in Liu Changgen's eyes, Qin Ziwen's lips curled up. "Looks like your eyes are lying."

On the riverbank, Qin Ziwen and Qin Ziwu carried the 130-pound corpse and threw it into the river.

"Puff~"

Large splashes of water rose from the river surface.

There are tigerfish in this river; it won't be long before he's eaten clean.

The harpy eagle didn't quite understand its owner's decision to throw away the food, but it didn't care. "If my owner won't let me eat, then I won't eat. Fish is delicious too!"
The harpy eagle tore off a piece of fish flesh and swallowed it whole.

Qin Ziwen gave the eagle a task: "Little eagle, after you finish eating your food, return the way you came, circle around the perimeter, and then return through the window. Don't fly around randomly, understand?"

The harpy eagle's eyes rolled as it received the task, and its tiny CPU was doing its best to analyze it.

Finally, the harpy eagle understood and let out two loud cries.

After Qin Ziwen left, it finished eating the fish, flapped its wings, and flew to a nearby tree branch.

"Wow~"

It looked at the river, believing it had understood its master's meaning.

Food, go around, return.

My owner wants me to take the food, go around in a circle, and come back!
The moonlight shone like a ribbon on the river, and occasionally a few fish would leap out of the water, splashing up a spray.

The harpy eagle tilted its head, its huge pupils like a pair of high-speed cameras, precisely locking onto the fish leaping from the river surface, its two claws unable to resist gently rubbing together.

The next second, it transformed into a beam of sharp arrows and shot towards the river.

They precisely caught a big fish, and then soared into the sky.

Qin Ziwen returned home and opened the window.

The harpy eagle flapped its wings and flew into the house.

It dropped the large fish from its claws onto the ground, raised its neck, and proudly awaited praise.
