"Caw—"
"Doubles! Doubles! Mixed doubles, caw—"
The crow shed its multicolored black feathers and fell from the wall, landing bare-bottomed with its eyes spinning as it staggered two circles in front of the pavilion, tripping over its own feet before crashing heavily to the ground.
"Caw—"
The crow moaned, completely ignoring Master Fuli beside it, and kicked its feet in reflex.
"Don't sleep too deeply tonight, I'll notify the gang's brothers to come with you home, we'll seize your water meter and confiscate all illicit gains as tuition!"
Ansheng jumped down from the wall, his expression serious, raising his hand to point a finger-sword at the crow's head, notifying it not to sleep too soundly tonight because they'd need its cooperation in the raid.
"Caw..."
The crow shakily raised its wings, barely managing to pull its thumb and index into an OK sign.
"Lucky you know your place, dare to steal Lin Ying's family's treasures again and I'll fold your drumstick into threes."
